Chu Changliu's brain went blank for a moment when he was asked this question right away.
His face flushed red instantly.
Faced with questions from both sets of parents, Zhou Ping coughed twice and then took Chu Changliu's hand, saying, "We haven't decided yet."
Shang Qingqian leaned closer, "Haven't decided yet?"
She sounded a little surprised, "You two have been together for over ten years! Zhou Ping, you still don't want to be with Yan Yan... Are you tired of our Yan Yan?"
"Qingqian, what are you saying!" Shen Yu glared at Shang Qingqian, signaling her to stop talking nonsense.
The third uncle rubbed his hands nervously. "In-law, don't worry. I watched Zhou Ping grow up. He would never do such a thing..."
Shang Chen didn't speak, but he was also a little nervous.
So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and my son is twenty-six now, with still no hope?
Facing the pressure from all sides, Zhou Ping nervously pursed his lips, "What I was thinking..."
"Actually, he had been thinking about this before, but I refused," Chu Changliu blinked and quickly stood in front of Zhou Ping to speak.
"Huh?" Shang Qingqian's eyes widened, looking at her younger brother with a disappointed expression.
What her parents didn't know, Shang Qingqian did. The two of them had been having an affair for a long time. Now that her younger brother said that she had refused, Shang Qingqian was stunned at first, and then pulled Chu Changliu to a corner.
Shang Chen and Shen Yu exchanged a glance at their third uncle, not expecting things to develop this way.
Zhou Ping silently pricked up his ears.
In the corner, Shang Qingqian reached out and pinched Chu Changliu's ear, saying, "What's wrong? It seems Zhou Ping was all prepared. Why don't you want to be with him anymore?"
"I had other things to do at the time... and I had some concerns," Chu Changliu quickly explained.
Upon hearing that Chu Changliu had concerns, Shang Qingqian's thoughts wandered again. "What concerns? Is he not good enough?"
"That's not right. I've come looking for you several times, but the shop is always closed," Shang Qingqian began to deduce.
Chu Changliu felt his face burning up. "Sister, no, don't overthink it!"
Zhou Ping, who was eavesdropping: ...
No way! Their lives are perfectly harmonious, incredibly harmonious!
"Then why are you unwilling?" Shang Qingqian asked. "Do you want to start something and then abandon it? I'm not trying to criticize you, but it's been so many years... you can't let her down."
"I didn't! I really had something to do at the time!" Chu Changliu took a deep breath. How could they misunderstand him like that? Did he look like that kind of person?
"So when do you plan to give them an explanation?" Now that there was no inside story, Shang Qingqian felt much more at ease and asked naturally.
"I haven't decided yet." Chu Changliu really hadn't decided yet. In the world of Godslayer, he would definitely be with Zhou Ping, but what about his elderly father, Chu Yunqi, who was left in the God Realm?
My elderly father is still dealing with official documents; how can he come to participate?
Also... he has parents on Earth, so he'll definitely go back.
"You two should discuss it," Shang Qingqian said, patting Chu Changliu's shoulder as she saw that the people in front of her really hadn't made up their minds yet. She then walked towards Shang Chen and Shen Yu.
Seeing her approach, Shen Yu showed a worried expression.
Shang Qingqian waved her hand, "My brother hasn't decided yet, Mom, don't worry. I have something to do at the shop, so I'll be leaving now."
After hearing Shang Qingqian's words, Shen Yu felt much relieved.
They sat in the bookstore for a while longer, said a few words about making a decision as soon as possible if they were going to, and then left one after another.
When Third Uncle left, he held Chu Changliu's hand and said, "Xiao Yan, Zhou Ping is getting on in years. He'll be twenty-seven after the New Year. Sigh..."
Chu Changliu, whose actual age was over ten thousand years old, blinked and said, "Still young!"
Third Uncle: ...
“You’re right. You should settle things while you’re still young, then your third uncle will be at ease,” the third uncle said, offering a different perspective.
Knowing that his third uncle was worried about him, Zhou Ping, standing behind Chu Changliu, couldn't help but smile slightly.
Third Uncle noticed his smile and glared at Zhou Ping with a hint of exasperation. "Still laughing? What are you laughing at? Aren't you worried? I think Xiao Yan has grown even more handsome since she came back. If she stood in my restaurant, all the customers would be able to eat just by looking at her face!"
“Don’t worry, he’ll be surrounded by young men and women chasing after him!” Uncle San was absolutely telling the truth.
Zhou Ping recalled that when Chu Changliu was not human, he turned into a fox and crawled around the streets, and people still wanted to take him home.
He couldn't laugh anymore.
Third Uncle is right.
He tightened his grip on Chu Changliu's hand and said earnestly to his third uncle, "I will discuss it with him properly!"
Third Uncle gave Zhou Ping an appreciative look and left with peace of mind.
After seeing both sets of parents off, Zhou Ping and Chu Changliu sat down in the bookstore and began to discuss their plans.
"I wonder how 019's mission is going. I still need to get the coordinates of Blue Star from it." Chu Changliu said as he took out his phone from his pocket, opened the chat interface with Lin Qiye, and sent a message to Lin Qiye.
Zhou Ping looked at him with some confusion, "Why go back there?"
Chu Changliu reached out and scratched his hair. "It's like this, I was originally reincarnated on Blue Star, but 019 kidnapped me halfway here. My parents are still alive in that world."
Zhou Ping nodded slowly and remained silent for a long while.
It seems he's going to meet his future in-laws again?
However, Zhou Ping was already used to it. He had already met his in-laws from two different worlds twice, so one more time wouldn't make a difference.
"After meeting them, shall we get married?" Zhou Ping asked, his eyes lowered, mustering his courage.
He was actually very afraid that Chu Changliu would reject him again, and his long, thick eyelashes trembled slightly.
“Okay,” Chu Changliu stepped forward and pounced on him. “We still have five hundred years. We can spend a hundred years here, a hundred years on Blue Star, and then you and I can go back to the God Realm, how about that?”
"It just means we might have to review all the memorials together at that time..." The debts we owed before were just too many.
Zhou Ping's dark eyes lit up, and he gave Chu Changliu a bright smile. He rarely smiled so much. "You agreed?"
"Yes, I agree!" Chu Changliu replied patiently when he asked him again.
"Really?" Zhou Ping took his hand and placed it on his chest, where a heart was pounding violently.
"Really, really, really!" Chu Changliu pressed down on him, nodding three times in a row.
