Looking back, his mother was just as simple and approachable.
He seemed to have rediscovered some long-lost sense of familiarity.
He raised his hand and responded to Cheng's mother's greeting in the same way: "Hi, Auntie, my name is Gao Jiakai, I'm Yaoyao's boyfriend, you can call me Xiaokai."
This statement is false, yet it seems true.
Yao Yao's nose started to sting again, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Gao Jiakai's performance in the video was so natural and flawless that she believed it was all real.
The phrase "He's Yaoyao's boyfriend" really brought tears to her eyes.
This young man has such great energy and spirit, a sunny smile, and he exudes confidence, composure, and politeness.
Cheng's mother felt even more excited than Yao Yao.
Of course, this "heart-fluttering" refers to the feeling that arises when seeing a son-in-law who matches one's ideal candidate, not to having feelings for Gao Jiakai.
Although Mr. Cheng was cooking in the kitchen, he was eavesdropping the whole time.
When he heard his wife and Yaoyao's boyfriend greeting each other, he curiously came out of the kitchen, tiptoed behind his wife, and went closer to watch.
When Cheng's mother saw a head suddenly pop out from her shoulder in the picture, she was startled.
Turning her head to look to the side and seeing it was her husband, she couldn't help but scold, "You old geezer, you scared me to death without making a sound?"
"I just want to see what my future son-in-law looks like, why are you being so fierce?"
As he spoke, Mr. Cheng kept his eyes glued to the handsome man in the video.
Cheng's mother felt a sense of pride: "Now that you see, are you satisfied?"
Mr. Cheng nodded hurriedly, "Satisfied, satisfied."
Gao Jiakai had the air of a successful person; he was neither sloppy nor shabby, giving people a sense of trustworthiness. Therefore, he was naturally very satisfied with this son-in-law.
On the other end of the video, Gao Jiakai was also startled when he saw Cheng's father's head; but he quickly calmed down.
This person must be the middle-aged man who cursed him fiercely earlier, and he must also be Yao Yao's father. He's currently pretending to be Yao Yao's boyfriend, so of course he has to be more respectful when he sees his future father-in-law.
"Hello, Uncle."
Mr. Cheng never expected that Gao Jiakai would actually put aside past grievances and greet him, which greatly changed his impression of the young man.
He paused for a moment, then smiled and greeted Gao Jiakai in the video: "Hello, hello!"
She still vividly remembered her husband's fierce expression, and she also saw that Gao Jiakai had been startled. Combining these two points, Cheng's mother's face turned fierce, and she criticized, "You scared him here. Go to the kitchen and cook."
Knowing that he would put a lot of pressure on Gao Jiakai, Cheng's father said politely before leaving, "Xiao Kai, come here sometime when you have time. Uncle will cook you a delicious meal."
With a forced smile, Gao Jiakai replied, "I will pay you a visit when I have time."
After sending her husband away, Cheng's mother continued chatting enthusiastically with her "future son-in-law": "Xiao Kai, I didn't scare you just now, did I?"
Gao Jiakai shook his head with a fake smile: "No!"
Cheng's mother said apologetically, "That's just how he is. He's very impulsive. Don't take it to heart."
Gao Jiakai: "Auntie, don't worry, my belly can hold a boat."
