Extra: Qin Zhouyan x Zhu Zhiyao 2
During the days back in Jiang City, Zhu Zhiyao brought Qin Zhouyan home. Qin Zhouyan, who had always been as active as a fool, was so nervous that he couldn't speak clearly when facing his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Zhu's father and mother were very satisfied with this son-in-law. He was good-looking, came from a happy family and had good conditions. The most precious thing was that he loved Yaoyao.
As parents, who have experienced so much and walked so many paths together, how can we not tell whether their feelings are sincere or not?
Qin Zhouyan was nervous because he wanted their affirmation and also wanted to leave a good impression on them.
As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to greet everyone: "Hello, Mom and Dad!"
In the moment when the three of them were stunned, he quickly reacted and scratched his head: "Um, hello uncle and aunt, I was excited at the moment, I'm sorry."
Zhu's mother liked his personality, and especially liked good-looking boys. What's more, this boy and her precious daughter stood together, a perfect match. She was delighted: "Xiao Zhou, don't be nervous."
After hearing this, Qin Zhouyan became even more nervous.
The Zhu family has servants, but Zhu's father likes to cook. Today, an important guest happened to be coming, so he chose to do it himself and cooked a table full of dishes.
At the end, there were still two dishes left to be finished, so he hurriedly said, "You guys eat first, there is still one dish that is not ready."
Qin Zhouyan stood up quickly: "Uncle, I'll help."
Zhu's father couldn't persuade this man, so he had to agree.
Zhu Zhiyao and her mother looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
I thought the kitchen was peaceful and harmonious, but suddenly there was some dispute.
"Uncle, don't put coriander in it. Yaoyao doesn't like it."
Zhu's father said, uncharacteristically, "I want to release it. My wife likes it."
“…”
"Then Yaoyao can't eat this dish."
Zhu's father deliberately didn't tell him that there was a plate of food without coriander in the steamer, and just looked at his anxious look.
Zhu Zhiyao and her mother walked into the kitchen at some point, and couldn't help laughing when they saw the childish appearance of the two men.

After dinner, Qin Zhouyan took Zhu Zhiyao to the mall for shopping under the pretext of helping with digestion. There was no other reason, he just wanted to spend time with his girlfriend, but he felt a little embarrassed in front of his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.
"Yaoyao, do my uncle and aunt like me?" Qin Zhouyan asked anxiously. He wanted to hear the answer, but he didn't dare to listen to the panic of the answer.
Zhu Zhiyao patted his head and said, "Don't worry, they like you very much. From what I know about dad, if he didn't like you, you would have been kicked out."
"What?!" Qin Zhouyan exclaimed, "Well, I just had a little argument with him... is that okay?"
"It's okay. Who is as childish as you two?"
Qin Zhouyan walked happily with his arm around Zhu Zhiyao. He looked around the mall and said, "This mall looks familiar. I think I've been here before."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhu Zhiyao's eyes sparkled. She was silent for a long time, then slowly said, "I participated in a hosting competition here before. You could say this is where my dream of hosting was born."
When she was in the third year of junior high school, Zhu Zhiyao saw the beautiful and graceful hosts on TV, and secretly dreamed of becoming a host.
But at that time, Zhu's father and mother did not agree. To be a host, both strength and luck are indispensable.
There are so many students in the Broadcasting Department every year, but how many of them actually enter CCTV?
But her parents couldn't persuade her, so her father took her to the shopping mall, which was holding an offline event at that time, the theme of which was the selection of young hosts.
Her father told her: "If you like hosting, you can start here and try it out to see if you really love it. If you still like it after the competition, then mom and dad will support you."
Zhu Zhiyao was full of confidence, but she got stage fright when she was holding the microphone and about to go on stage.
The stage was very large, and the audience was packed with people. Several spotlights were shining on the stage, making it almost impossible to open your eyes.
Zhu Zhiyao got stage fright at the most critical moment, but the organizer still gave her a chance and postponed her performance to a later date.
She stood backstage holding the microphone, her eyes fixed on the people on the stage.
Until a clear, young voice interrupted: "What are you standing there for? Aren't you going on stage?"
Zhu Zhiyao blinked, feeling a little ashamed: "I'm scared."
"What are you afraid of? Just treat them like cabbages." The young man waved his hand and spoke defiantly, "Besides, you're so beautiful, you belong on the stage."
She looked at the boy in front of her. The boy was about the same age as her and began to reveal a bit of masculinity, but there was still some childishness on his face and he spoke more boldly. She thought, it would be great if she had the boy's confidence.
Zhu Zhiyao lowered her eyes. The boy was holding an exam registration form. She asked curiously, "Are you also in the third grade?"
Jiang City Affiliated High School holds an exam every year with the aim of selecting some of the city’s outstanding third-year junior high school students. After the high school entrance exam, the students can directly enter the Affiliated High School.
"Yes, I just went to the affiliated high school to take an exam today!"
"You can do it!" Zhu Zhiyao also gave him encouragement.
The boy smiled: "Of course!"
A boy behind him called his name: "Qin Zhouyan, are you leaving?"
The young man quickly turned around and replied, "I'm coming!" He then said to Zhu Zhiyao, "Go ahead. I think you have a talent for hosting, because my aunt is a host, and she's from CCTV! So you have to trust my judgment, it won't be wrong."
Zhu Zhiyao's thoughts returned, and she continued to tell a story until the person next to her took a breath and said, "I remember now!"
"The boy you just mentioned is me, right?" Qin Zhouyan grabbed her, wanting an answer.
"Yeah." Zhu Zhiyao took his hand and interlocked their fingers: "Qin Zhouyan, I did have someone I liked in high school."
Qin Zhouyan suddenly didn't dare to speak. He looked at Zhu Zhiyao nervously, expectantly, and with a hint of joy.
"I like you. I've liked you since high school."
Qin Zhouyan grabbed her arms with both hands, looking down in bewilderment, surprise and disbelief tug at each other. "How did that match turn out?"
"I took first place." Zhu Zhiyao smiled. "Then, in the second half of my third year of junior high, I took a lot of extra classes and put in a lot of effort. My high school entrance exam results were beyond my expectations, and I successfully entered the affiliated high school."
Qin Zhouyan was moved and held her in his arms with care.
It turns out that Zhu Zhiyao has liked him so early, and he is such a fool. Si Yang is right, he is a fool, he didn't even notice the secret crush of the people around him.
He had been secretly in love with Yaoyao for so long. If he had not realized his feelings clearly, he would not dare to think about what would happen next.
The joy in Qin Zhouyan's heart was replaced by heartache: "Yaoyao, I'm sorry that it took me so long to realize your secret love."
"I'm sorry, Yaoyao." Qin Zhouyan's voice choked. He hugged her tightly, not wanting her to see his red eyes.
Zhu Zhiyao was stunned for several seconds. She patted his back gently and said, "No need to apologize. Aren't we together very well now?"
Qin Zhouyan secretly swore in his heart that he must be good to Zhu Zhiyao, a thousand times better, ten thousand times better.

Qin Zhouyan was happy all night long. Not only did he pester Zhu Zhiyao, he couldn't help but make a phone call.
The first call went through, but no one answered. Qin Zhouyan called again. Just as the beep was about to end, Jin Siyang's cold and somewhat lazy voice came over: "Qin Zhouyan, you'd better have something urgent."
"It's only what time, and you're already asleep?" Qin Zhouyan quickly changed the subject, his tone unable to conceal his joy: "Si Yang, you won't believe it if I tell you this, but it's true. Yaoyao has had a crush on me since the third grade of junior high school. Hey, this is the highlight of my life. Well, don't be too jealous."
Jin Siyang: “…”
