Chapter 78 Ahhhhhhhhhhhh…
From breakfast till now, Shen Yueting seemed to have lived in the cloakroom, changing more than a dozen sets of clothes.
Aunt Lu was pulled over to sit next to the judge before she even had time to take off her apron.
"Isn't this set of jewelry too shiny?" Aunt Lu commented seriously. She wanted to continue talking, but Shen Yueting was already nodding to herself in front of the mirror.
"That's right." She said seriously, "With all these jewels, it looks like it was used for demonstrations."
Aunt Lu: “…”
What did her wife say just now?
Oh, if it’s too plain it will seem like you don’t take it seriously.
Aunt Lu, who originally just wanted to remind Shen Yueting to change her jewelry, watched Shen Yueting take out another new set of clothes and quietly closed her mouth.
After watching for half the morning, her eyes were blurry.
But I have to say, his wife is really beautiful, she looks good in whatever she wears.
There was a noise outside. Aunt Lu stood up and looked out, and saw Meng Shizhao coming in untying his tie.
"Sir, you're back." Aunt Lu stood up as if relieved and handed the burden to Meng Shizhao.
"Where's the Madam?" Seeing Aunt Lu coming out of the cloakroom wearing an apron, Meng Shizhao raised his eyebrows in confusion.
Aunt Lu didn't say anything, she just smiled and quietly pointed in the direction of the cloakroom, and Meng Shizhao walked over.
"Sister, help me look at this set again." Shen Yueting adjusted her wavy hair in front of the mirror.
"Which outfit doesn't look good on my wife?" Meng Shizhao came in with a smile.
"This isn't the first time I've officially met Xiao Bai," Shen Yueting was overjoyed, "We want people to know at a glance that we value him, but we can't lose our friendliness."
Meng Shizhao walked in and carefully selected for Shen Yueting.
"Pearls," he said. "They are softer and look more intimate."
Shen Yueting took it: "Okay."
"Clothes..." Meng Shizhao patiently helped her in the closet, and finally took out a champagne-colored dress, "How about trying this one?"
…
Over the years, the two of them have built up Meng's Jewelry and have seen all kinds of storms in the process, but today they did not dare to be careless at all and were careful and attentive.
Compared with the Meng couple, Bai You's choice was much simpler.
His focus was on preparing gifts for the two elders.
Shen Yueting is afraid of cold, so he deliberately chose a thin shawl that won’t make him feel stuffy even in summer.
Meng Shizhao works intensively all year round and cannot live without coffee in his daily life, so he specially asked his teacher who taught him how to brew coffee to help him find some beans that have very low production and are difficult to buy.
However, Bai You also has his own concerns.
He is about to meet his parents, but he hasn't told them about his relationship.
Although Jin Lai already knew about it, he always respected the younger generation. Considering that Bai You would probably want to tell his mother in person, and Jin Baobao was obsessed with idols, there was an uncertain factor. What if he couldn't help but spread the news and bring trouble to Bai You...
So he has remained tight-lipped all this time.
Bai You wanted to tell his mother in advance.
But since I was a child, people from good families around me always pay attention to matching each other when it comes to marriage.
During holidays, Xiao Wei would occasionally organize a card game to keep in touch with the wives in the business world. As the children grew older, seven or eight out of ten sentences they talked about these things.
The more he knew, the more Bai You dared not to mention these things to Bai Xiuxi in advance.
I was afraid that she would be uneasy and worried that she would be wronged.
Moreover, up to now, he really doesn't know the attitude of Meng Qingyan's parents.
Although Meng Qingyan always said that his parents would definitely like him...
But Bai You felt that, after all, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, so of course Meng Qingyan thought he was good in every way, so he naturally thought that others should like him.
The fur on his knees moved, and Xiaoliang had woken up.
Bai You put down his phone and decided to wait.
The door opened and Meng Qingyan came back carrying vegetables, fruits and chocolates.
He put the things down, bent down and kissed Bai You's forehead, and reached out to rub Xiao Liang: "I learned a new dish, do you want to try it?"
"What?" Bai You stood up curiously and rummaged through the shopping bag that Meng Qingyan brought back.
"Sweet and sour pork with pineapple." Meng Qingyan raised his eyebrows proudly and gave the chocolate to Bai You. "Don't eat too many snacks. Let's have the main meal later."
Baiyouhui has many dishes, including this sweet and sour pork with pineapple.
But he didn't want to dampen Meng Qingyan's enthusiasm, so he just smiled and asked, "Do you need my help?"
"Teacher Bai is a national treasure to me," Meng Qingyan chuckled, "stay away from the kitchen from now on."
Bai You was so amused by him that he fell on the sofa with Xiao Liang in his arms: "Then I take it seriously."
"Yeah." Meng Qingyan lowered his eyes and looked at him, with a deep smile in his eyes.
"What if you're not at home?" Bai You raised his face a little proudly.
"Let the aunt come over." Bai You was usually too self-disciplined. Meng Qingyan liked the way he relaxed, so she couldn't help but get closer to him. "My two aunts at home cook delicious food. You can eat whatever you want."
Bai You said nothing more and tilted his face up to kiss him.
"I'm meeting my uncle and aunt in the evening. I'm a little nervous." He no longer hides it.
"I'm here." Meng Qingyan stroked his earlobe with his dry and warm fingertips and said softly.
At this moment, Xiaoliang was squeezed tighter and tighter between the two of them. Finally, he meowed impatiently and slapped Meng Qingyan on the chest with his paw.
The ambiguous atmosphere was broken and Bai You burst into laughter.
Meng Qingyan took the cat away from Baiyou's arms, washed some of the various fruits and placed them in front of him as a pre-meal snack, and then went into the kitchen.
During the weekdays, the two of them rarely spend time together.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Bai You called the restaurant and the two changed their clothes and set off early.
The restaurant was decided by Bai You after a long period of research. It is InterContinental’s special service and guests can customize the menu.
Bai You carefully studied the food preferences of Shen Yueting and Meng Shizhao, and every dish was carefully decided after discussing with Meng Qingyan.
When we arrived at the Intercontinental, it was just half past five, which was the time to get off work.
Prepared to wait for the two to come over after get off work, Meng Qingyan specially ordered desserts, intending for the two of them to enjoy them first.
But what I didn't expect was that when the door of the box opened, Shen Yueting and Meng Shizhao were already sitting at the table, studying the menu on the table.
When he saw Bai You, Shen Yueting's pair of peach blossom eyes, which were almost identical to Meng Qingyan's, immediately curved up.
"Come on, Youyou," she greeted warmly, "Sit next to me."
"Uncle, aunt." Bai You kept a decent smile on his face, but in his heart he began to doubt whether Meng Qingyan had not explained their relationship clearly to his parents.
As if sensing his doubts, Meng Qingyan reached out with a smile and held his hand.
The hand was very strong. Bai You struggled quietly but couldn't get even a penny out.
Seeing this, Shen Yueting smiled even more deeply, and couldn't help but secretly look at Meng Shizhao, and there was joy in each other's eyes.
Meng Shizhao was a reserved person with a more serious demeanor, but at this moment his expression softened.
"The menu was prepared by Xiao Bai," he said. "It's very good."
Bai You was a little confused and didn't understand the situation for a moment.
I have clearly prepared for the worst, and I am determined to fight with Meng Qingyan through thick and thin for a long time...
Even along the way, he reminded himself to keep calm no matter how unpleasant the words were.
But now, do they accept me so simply and easily?
Bai You was led by Meng Qingyan to sit down, feeling as if he was sinking into a beautiful dream.
First there was shock and disbelief, and then great joy.
The Meng couple get along well.
Shen Yueting has a young mindset and a lively personality. She can get along well with young people and respects their ideas.
Although Meng Shizhao seems difficult to get along with, he is actually very reasonable when he speaks, and his tone is full of care.
After the meal, the pressure about marrying well gradually disappeared from Bai You's heart.
The love and care given to him by the Meng couple made him feel kind, happy and warm.
He even began to doubt why Meng Qingyan could bear to leave his home back then?
After finishing the meal, the four of them took the elevator downstairs together. After watching the Meng couple leave in the car in the garage, Bai You opened the gift that Shen Yueting had given him.
It is a pair of bracelets, one large and one small, with sparkling diamonds on the platinum bracelets.
After seeing what was in the box, Meng Qingyan couldn't help but laugh.
"This is a token of love between my father and mother," he smiled. "When I was a child, I watched TV with my mother and saw other people had heirlooms. She said that when I find a partner in the future, I will pass down these bracelets to my mother."
Meng Qingyan thought his mother was a little funny, but Bai You quietly tightened his grip on the box, feeling a slight heat in his heart.
He felt relieved, but then he jumped up again with joy, feeling a sense of joy and luck that everything had settled.
It was as if God finally realized that he had been so unfair to him in the past, so now he was given all the rewards at once.
He was deeply touched and grateful.
Meng Qingyan held his hand again, and he laughed softly, "Once you accept the betrothal gift from the old man and the old lady, you are not allowed to regret it."
"Yeah." Bai You nodded, carefully put the things into the bag, and followed Meng Qingyan forward.
He led him forward, opened the door for him, and held out his hand to protect the top of his head as he got in...
Everything happens so naturally.
Bai You took out his cell phone and started typing his mother's cell phone number on the screen one digit at a time.
"Meng Qingyan," he said, "I need to call my mother."
The phone was quickly connected, and Bai Xiuxi's voice came over, with a smile: "Have you eaten?"
"I just ate. How about you?" Bai You asked.
"Young Master wanted to eat the beef brisket pot I made," Bai Xiuxi said with a smile, "He said it late, and we just served the meal."
Then he asked, "Are all the furniture you ordered very expensive? If you have money, spend it on yourself. Mom doesn't need such nice things."
Bai You smiled, his eyes slightly hot.
"It wasn't me who ordered it," he said. "It was my friend who ordered it for you in my name."
Bai Xiuxi was probably stunned for a moment, and before she could say anything, Jin Baobao beside her couldn't wait any longer and shouted, "Aunt Bai, please ask who Youyou is and why you want to steal my chance to stand out?"
Bai Xiuxi then asked in confusion: "Who is it?"
Then he said, "Isn't that good?"
"Mom..." Bai You laughed, and his heart seemed to be filled with bubbles of happiness, which burst and turned into words full of joy.
"Mom," he said, "I'm in love."
"Aunt Bai, hurry up and ask who he is?" Jin Baobao's voice was closer, but very low, full of vigilance.
Bai You couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Jin Baobao jumping around on the Internet to support their couple.
He wanted to play a prank on this guy, but after thinking it over he decided not to.
"It's Meng Qingyan," he said, and saw his own shadow in Meng Qingyan's smiling black eyes, "My boyfriend is Meng Qingyan."
Bai Xiuxi probably didn't hear the second half of the sentence clearly, because Jin Baobao's wild scream of "Ahhhhhhhhh..." could be heard from the other side.
But it doesn’t matter, because he mentioned Meng Qingyan’s name at the beginning.
