Upon hearing this, everyone in the room became excited, and even Old Yu began to seriously consider it.
After a moment of hesitation, he said, "How about... I report this to my superiors?"
The old professor grew anxious. "No, it's too dangerous outside. Chu Chu's identity is special, and her boyfriend's identity is like that. Sending her abroad now would be harming her."
"Let's wait a few more years until the situation is less dire before letting Chuchu go."
Old Yu suppressed a laugh. They were just joking, but he got so worked up. Tsk tsk, it seems he's really satisfied with Chu Chu as a student.
"Okay, okay, we won't talk about it. How about we talk about it after you've asked Chuchu and she agrees to go out?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the old professor realized what he had said, and his anxious expression froze on his face.
He seems to have been tricked by these old guys.
As Lin Chuchu walked back, she thought that today was a good day to call home. She decided to make a call home today.
I've been out for almost ten days now, and if all goes well, I should be able to go back in five more days.
After finishing her meal and washing up, Lin Chuchu went to the communications room. Her family was there, and Lin Chuchu chatted with each of them for a while.
"By the way, Chuchu, two days ago one of your classmates came looking for you. Her name is Li Sisi. She knew you weren't there, so she didn't say anything and left."
Lin Chuchu raised an eyebrow. Sisi was looking for her? Had something happened?
She was a little anxious. Li Sisi's boyfriend's family were not good people. They would definitely try to keep bothering Li Sisi. Could Li Sisi's older brother break them up?
"Chu Chu? Chu Chu?"
When Mu's mother called out to Chu Chu twice, Lin Chu Chu snapped out of her daze and quickly said, "Mom, I know. She probably doesn't have anything urgent to tell me. I'll go see her when I get back."
With something on her mind, Lin Chuchu wanted to call Sisi, but she didn't know who to call.
She did have Li Sisi's pager number, but the pager had been confiscated.
On the other hand, Li Sisi did indeed have an accident. Her mother was hospitalized, so she went back to take care of her. She was discharged after a few days, and her family no longer had an excuse to keep her there. She quickly returned to Beijing, thinking of going to see her boyfriend first.
When Wang Hao saw that she had finally contacted him, he was afraid that she would disappear again, so he used the excuse that his mother was sick to try to invite her to his home.
Thinking that the two of them would get married sooner or later, it didn't matter when they met each other's parents, so Li Sisi agreed.
She didn't know what gift to buy, so she went shopping with her classmates and bought a few suitable gifts according to local customs.
Her brother didn't know about this and didn't tell her. Luckily, her classmate thought of her older brother and asked them to keep an eye on the situation.
In addition, Li Sisi liked Li Sisi's brother, so the next day, after Li Sisi went out, she called Li Sisi's brother.
When Li Sisi arrived at Wang Hao's home, she found that it was a three-bedroom apartment in the factory's staff housing. The apartment was very clean, and Wang Hao's parents were very welcoming, so she lowered her guard.
Wang Hao's mother chatted with her very kindly, making her think that Wang Hao's mother was a kind and gentle person.
During the meal, Wang Hao's parents drank alcohol, while Wang Hao and she drank juice together.
As she ate, Lin Sisi realized something was wrong.
"Sisi, what kind of business does your family run? Will your parents give you a dowry when you get married?"
When Mrs. Wang spoke with a smile, Li Sisi replied with a shy smile, "Our family only runs a small business. As for the dowry, my parents said it will be done according to the customs of the capital."
Nowadays, when people get married, besides the bride price given by the groom, the bride's family decides what to do with the bride price depending on the circumstances. It's already considered good if the bride price is brought back in its entirety.
Even if the bride's family provides a dowry, it's usually done privately; publicly, they might give some household appliances.
Wang Hao's mother's smile froze on her face.
"How can that be the same? Your family is so well-off. My son is still your parents' son-in-law. These days, having a son or a daughter is the same. We can't leave you with nothing and give it all to your brother, can we?"
Li Sisi, "..."
Something doesn't sound right about this. She may be a bit naive, but she's not stupid. The two families haven't even met yet, and she's already talking about the dowry on their first meeting? Her intentions are too obvious, aren't they?
She turned to look at Wang Hao, wanting to see his attitude, but saw him acting like a quail, keeping his head down and eating.
Wang Hao's mother was still saying something, "Sisi, Auntie is only doing this for your own good. You are both young and don't have much savings, so you will definitely need your family's help. Your uncle and I are just working people and don't have much ability. In the future, we will still need your family to help us more."
Wang Hao's mother kept nagging, saying she was doing it for the good of the two of them, but what she really meant was to ask Li Sisi's family to help Wang Hao.
"Sisi, although you are a college student, my son is not bad either. Since you want to marry my son, you should consider him."
“My maternal home is my maternal home after all; we are the real family.”
Li Sisi gripped her chopsticks tighter and tighter, but to her disappointment, Wang Hao remained silent.
So blatantly asking for favors? Does she really think Li Sisi is stupid?
Li Sisi placed her chopsticks on the bowl and said with a half-smile.
“The money my parents earn is theirs. You all have jobs, and I will have a job in the future. I won’t be any worse off than others, so my parents won’t give us more money. It’s not like we can’t earn money. Besides, you said it yourself, we are family. Isn’t the money you earn ours?”
The implication is that if they ever encounter difficulties in the future, they will have to ask them for money again.
Wang Hao's parents' expressions changed slightly. Wang's mother's face darkened immediately, and she opened her mouth to start cursing.
Wang Hao's parents pinched her thighs; they were too impatient. A college-educated girl is not easy to fool.
