When it comes to meeting parents, even if you are mentally prepared, you will still be very nervous when you actually go.
Wen Jingshan tidied her clothes before leaving the house. She turned around and looked at Bai Wenjie, smiling sweetly and gently, and asked, "What do you think of me today?"
Bai Wenjie looked away unnaturally and said, "It's fine."
"What's so good about it?" Wen Jingshan pretended to be angry and said coquettishly, "Then why don't you dare to look at me directly?"
Bai Wenjie had nothing to say and could only answer her question dryly: "Very...very beautiful."
"Hmph! Perfunctory!" Wen Jingshan pouted her lips and made an unhappy expression.
"I'm not..." Bai Wenjie hurriedly explained, but was interrupted again.
"Okay, I'm just teasing you! Let's go!" Wen Jingshan walked forward and took his arm, snuggled up to him intimately, and winked at him with a smile, "Don't worry! I've already done my homework and know what to say."
The two walked side by side to the stairs.
Wen Jingshan was still a little nervous when Bai Wenjie was driving.
"Don't worry. We should get to their place in the evening. My brother-in-law and the others are already there. We have already informed them in advance." Bai Wenjie comforted her and asked her to relax.
"Hmm..." Wen Jingshan nodded and leaned back in the passenger seat, closing her eyes to rest.
Wen Jingshan didn't know whether she fell asleep or not. She just felt her head becoming more and more drowsy. Finally, she couldn't bear the sleepiness anymore and fell asleep leaning back in her seat in a daze.
When Wen Jingshan woke up again, she found that the car had stopped and Bai Wenjie was sitting next to her.
Wen Jingshan rubbed her temple and opened her eyes. She saw Bai Wenjie frowning slightly and looking at her worriedly: "What's wrong?"
"How about we find a place to rest later? It'll be the same tomorrow. It's okay. I'll just say I have something to do here. It's nothing serious."
"No, it's better to arrive early so you don't have to worry too much. I'm fine, just a little carsick." Wen Jingshan said softly, "I'm much better now."
After saying this, Wen Jingshan raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, only then did she notice that the car was parked in a remote location. There were no street lights around, let alone traffic lights. If her memory served her correctly, there seemed to be only a small alley nearby.
"Where is this?" Wen Jingshan frowned and looked around in confusion. Only then did she realize that the air around her had become extremely humid.
She vaguely heard the sound of water in the distance, the rustling of leaves in the wind, and the calls of various animals, but because it was too far away, she couldn't hear what exactly it was. But she was sure that this definitely didn't seem like an urban area, but more like the suburbs.
"I'm going to your house before I leave. It's just on my way." Bai Wenjie explained.
Wen Jingshan was stunned. She didn't expect Bai Wenjie to send her home. Suddenly, a warm feeling surged in her heart.
"Thank you..." She lowered her head and murmured, her tone revealing endless guilt and apology.
"Silly girl, why are you being so polite to me?" Bai Wenjie stretched out his right hand and pinched her cheek, saying with a smile, "We're almost there."
"kindness……"
Then the car started slowly and drove forward along a narrow road.
The car was very silent. Wen Jingshan said nothing and just concentrated on appreciating the scenery outside the window.
The car gradually accelerated and soon returned to the main road.
Time passed quickly, and it was afternoon in a flash, and they finally arrived at their destination.
Bai Wenjie told her to go home, but he actually meant to go back to her home to see her parents first.
This must be what is called a surprise.
After the car stopped, Wen Jingshan leaned half of her body out of the car and shouted into the house: "Dad, Mom, Wenjie and I are here."
Bai Wenjie pushed open the car door, opened it for her, and helped her get out slowly.
When Wen Jingshan stood in front of her parents, they both stood there in a daze, staring at their daughter with eyes full of shock and disbelief.
"Hello, uncle and aunt." Bai Wenjie called the two of them, hugged her in his arms, and introduced, "My name is Bai Wenjie."
"Dad, Mom, he is my boyfriend." Wen Jingshan explained.
Her voice is rather weak, and sounds soft, very pleasant, and a little shy.
It was the first time that Wen Jingshan brought her boyfriend home. She had only told Bai Wenjie the general location of her home before, but she didn't expect that he remembered it so clearly. They went all the way to the vicinity of the town, but he really didn't know the direction, so he asked her to show him the way.
When they heard that their daughter had brought her boyfriend back, they were stunned at first.
They were originally worried that their daughter would not be able to get married, but they didn't expect that their daughter would bring a man back directly. The efficiency was simply astonishing!
Although they were very happy, their attitudes did not improve.
"Come on, come on, come in." Mr. and Mrs. Wen were very easy to talk to and warmly invited them in.
Bai Wenjie helped Wen Jingshan carry the suitcase, and the two followed him into the house.
"Old Wen, what do you think of this child?" Wen's mother asked in a low voice.
Father Wen glanced at Bai Wenjie and said, "He looks quite well behaved."
"So you agree?" Mother Wen was overjoyed. She quickly grabbed Father Wen's hand and whispered, "If you agree, hurry up. We can hold an engagement party for them or something."
"We really need to hurry up."
Mother Wen muttered, "What's your reaction? She hasn't even been married yet, and now you're reluctant to let her go?"
That's what parents are like.
I was always anxious when my daughter was not married, but I felt a little reluctant when I saw her getting married.
Father Wen smiled and said, "No, I'm just happy that my daughter has finally found a husband!"
Mother Wen glared at him and said, "Just keep pretending. Don't admit it."
"I'm serious. I only have this one daughter in my life, and I definitely want her to be happy."
Hearing her parents whispering behind her back, Wen Jingshan blushed.
"Did you hear that? Your parents said they want to marry you to me." Bai Wenjie leaned close to Wen Jingshan's ear and said ambiguously.
Wen Jingshan bit her lip and said nothing.
Wen's parents were discussing how to prepare for the engagement banquet when they suddenly saw their daughter and Bai Wenjie whispering together, so close to each other...
Mother Wen coughed: "Ahem——"
Wen Jingshan was startled and pushed Bai Wenjie away in panic, running away with a red face.
Bai Wenjie touched his nose, smiled awkwardly at Wen's mother, and then caught up with Wen Jingshan.
Wen Jingshan returned to the bedroom, closed the door, leaned against the wall, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm her racing heartbeat.
Bai Wenjie came over, hugged her from behind, and kissed her temples gently: "Are you tired?"
"Not bad." Wen Jingshan shook her head, turned around and hugged his waist, raised her face, and stared at him with burning eyes, "Thank you."
Bai Wenjie smiled, scratched her upturned nose, and said lovingly, "Silly girl, why are you being so polite to me?"
Wen Jingshan smiled sweetly and asked, "Are you hungry? I'll go cook later."
"Okay." Bai Wenjie replied with a smile.
For dinner, Wen Jingshan specially made soup and cooked rice. The three dishes and one soup were delicious.
After eating and drinking, Wen Jingshan cleaned up the dishes while Bai Wenjie strolled in the yard to digest the food and watched TV.
When Wen Jingshan came out after washing the dishes, Bai Wenjie was lying on the sofa, watching a TV show with Wen's father and mother.
He was originally going to wash the dishes, but Wen Jingshan refused to let him help and instead asked him to go out and chat with his parents.
In fact, Bai Wenjie was also a little nervous. It was impossible for him to say that he was not afraid when he suddenly faced them alone.
Wen Jingshan stayed in the kitchen for a while, put two cups of tea on the table, and then went to get a bag of fruit.
"Mom and Dad, don't just ask him about the fruit. Wenjie and I have been together for more than two years and we have a great relationship."
Wen Jingshan came out to help after washing the dishes, which made Bai Wenjie temporarily relieved.
After hearing what Wen Jingshan said, her mother glared at her in anger: "You didn't tell us for more than two years, and we were worried every day."
"Hey, I'm not afraid that you won't agree."
Wen's father sternly lectured his daughter: "We have already told you that no matter what difficulties you encounter, you must not escape. Think about it yourself. We don't care about your marriage. As long as we are sincere to you, that's enough."
"I...I understand."
Wen Jingshan blushed as she talked to her parents about the person she liked for the first time.
Mother Wen looked at Bai Wenjie again: "How old are you this year?"
Bai Wenjie smiled and said, “Uncle and aunt, I’m twenty years old.”
"Twenty?"
They couldn't believe that their daughter actually found a boyfriend who was five years younger than her.
This is also why Wen Jingshan avoided it, because she was afraid of being rejected by her parents.
But the result was beyond her expectations. They did not refuse directly, but looked at Bai Wenjie: "Do you know how old our daughter is this year?"
"I know, uncle and aunt, but I just like her. I don't think age is a problem." Bai Wenjie responded with a smile.
"My daughter is 25 years old this year, five years older than you. The gap is too big. Can you accept it?" Father Wen frowned.
Bai Wenjie said firmly: "Uncle and aunt, don't worry, I will take good care of Shanshan. I promise not to bully her, let alone let her suffer any grievances."
Mr. and Mrs. Wen looked at each other, as if they were exchanging opinions.
Finally, Wen's father made the decision: "Since you are so sincere, we can't refuse you anymore. We will hand Shanshan over to you."
"Thank you, uncle and aunt. I will protect Shanshan with my life!" Bai Wenjie said solemnly.
"I'll remember what you said."
Wen Jingshan bit her lower lip lightly and couldn't help but secretly glance at Wen's father and mother.
"I know you are worried, but please believe me, I will definitely treat you well."
Compared to those sweet words, what Bai Wenjie said now was more likely to impress Wen Jingshan. The thread in her heart was completely touched, and tears blurred her eyes.
She threw herself into his arms and choked up, "Thank you."
Wen's father and mother sighed, and the matter was finally settled.
…
Since it was his first time visiting their home, it would definitely not be good if he slept together at night, so a guest room was specially prepared for Bai Wenjie.
Wen Jingshan sleeps with her mother.
It's also convenient for the two of them to chat.
"Shanshan, tell mom, do you really like him?"
"I like him, very much, and he treats me very well." Wen Jingshan hid nothing.
"Well, if he bullies you, just tell mom."
"He won't."
Wen's mother looked at Wen Jingshan, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.
After a long while, she hesitated and said, "It's not that we don't agree, but... he's too young. What if he changes his mind in a few years?"
Hearing this, Wen Jingshan was silent for a moment, then spoke directly: "He will never change, he will always treat me well."
"Why are you so sure?" Wen's mother was extremely surprised. How could her daughter suddenly become so confident?
Wen Jingshan pursed her lips and said, "I know him. If he really wanted to abandon me, he wouldn't have to wait until now."
Mother Wen said thoughtfully, "You're right. Although he has a cold personality, he's not a bad person. If he really wanted to dump you, he would have done it long ago. There's no need to drag it on until now."
"Mom, can't you be more tactful? Besides, your daughter is not a bad girl."
"You're not bad, but you have high standards. Who would have thought that you would be pursued by a guy five years younger than you?" Wen's mother said with a smile.
Wen Jingshan stuck out her tongue and said coquettishly, "Mom, please stop making fun of me."
Mother Wen smiled and pinched her cheek: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, go to sleep."
"Yeah." Wen Jingshan nodded obediently, snuggled into the quilt and closed her eyes.
As the night deepened, Wen Jingshan had no desire to sleep and tossed and turned in sleep.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" asked Wen's mother beside him.
Wen Jingshan turned her head to look at the dark night sky outside the window and murmured, "I'm worried about going to their house tomorrow."
"What are you afraid of? If you don't like us, don't marry us. We don't have to suffer that grievance. If anything happens, mom will take it for you." Wen's mother said, pulling Wen Jingshan's hand and gently stroking the back of her hand to comfort her.
Wen Jingshan held her mother's hand tightly and whispered, "Mom, you are so good to me."
"Silly girl, of course I'm nice to you." Wen's mother touched her daughter's hair lovingly.
Wen Jingshan leaned on her mother's shoulder and suddenly said, "I thought you and Dad would object."
Wen's mother was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You are already so old, and you have your own ideas. I asked you to go on a blind date but you always ran away. It turns out that you already have a boy you like."
Wen Jingshan stuck out her tongue playfully: "He is really good to me, and he doesn't look at me the way other boys do. I am very satisfied and I am sure that he will always treat me well."
"Silly girl, you are simple and kind, that's why you trust others so easily. This society is very complicated." Wen's mother said earnestly.
"Mom, I'm actually not stupid. I know what I'm doing." Wen Jingshan looked at her mother seriously and said.
Mother Wen nodded with relief: "That's good. Mom hopes you will always be as happy as you are today."
Wen Jingshan leaned in her mother's arms and felt unprecedented warmth.
"It's great to have you and dad. You always support me in doing what I like."
"Why are you being so polite to your parents? Don't stay away from home after you get married."
"No, even after we get married I will come back to see you often. I love you very much too."
Family love is always the most sincere emotion in this world.
