Seeing her father return looking disheveled, Jiang Yimei put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked, "Dad, how are you?"
Jiang's father said dejectedly, "The anger is still burning inside me and it's hard to calm down. Let's eat; there's no need to wait for her."
Jiang Yimei was speechless. She immediately put down her work and went to her mother's room: "Mom, is this really necessary? What has Jiang Ze done to offend you?"
Jiang's mother cried inside, "He has no car, no house, and can't marry you. He made a mistake."
Jiang Yimei: "I think you're angry with him because he can't make you look good, right?"
Being slandered like this made Jiang's mother even more heartbroken: "Am I such a selfish person?"
Jiang Yimei really wanted to retort, "That's just the kind of person you are."
However, he swallowed the words back down.
Mother is in a bad mood right now, so let's not argue with her.
In addition, the atmosphere wasn't very good when the four of them ate together.
Three people is fine, anyway, it's good this way.
With things escalating like this, Jiang Ze didn't even dare to sit down and eat.
Seeing this, Jiang's father advised, "Little Jiang, sit down and don't pay any attention to that old woman."
Jiang Ze's lips twitched, and he forced a smile: "Uncle, should I not have shown up?"
Jiang's father comforted him, "No, don't take it to heart."
Jiang Ze explained, "Actually, I came here simply to visit you two..."
Jiang's father patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's okay, don't take the blame on yourself."
Jiang Yimei, who came out from inside, also came over to comfort him: "Jiang Ze, this is not your fault, there is no need to blame yourself."
Jiang Ze: "But..."
To avoid making her boyfriend feel awkward, Jiang Yimei changed the subject: "Let's eat, or the food will get cold."
Having been given the runaround, Jiang Ze had no choice but to shut up and eat in silence.
The three of them didn't talk much during lunch.
Although Jiang Yimei tried her best to create topics, she still couldn't get the atmosphere going; the reason was that her father wasn't very interested.
Her parents were united in rejecting Jiang Ze, and this time, she saw it clearly.
She felt sorry for Jiang Ze, but there was nothing she could do; what could she do when she had such eccentric parents?
After finishing his meal quickly, Jiang Ze made an excuse to leave.
Anyway, he's caught in the middle here, so he might as well leave sooner rather than later.
"Uncle, I need to go back to visit my parents, so I won't stay here with you."
Jiang's father pretended to be polite and asked, "Little Jiang, won't you sit for a while?"
"Let's sit here again next time, I'm going back now."
After saying that, Jiang Ze turned and left without looking back.
Jiang's father smiled and said, "Then be careful on your journey!"
Jiang Yimei immediately followed him out to see Jiang Ze off.
After walking to the corner a few dozen meters from home, she took Jiang Ze's hand and apologized, "Jiang Ze, I'm sorry, I didn't know my parents would treat you like this."
Jiang Zesheng replied listlessly, "I'm used to it. You need to take care of yourself."
Jiang Yimei tightened her grip on his hand, her eyes filled with reluctance: "Are you really leaving?"
Jiang Ze turned to look at her: "Otherwise what?"
A hidden anger surfaced on his face.
Nevertheless, Jiang Yimei still felt it was her fault: "Why don't we go shopping at the mall?"
Although Jiang Yimei's hometown is in the suburbs, it is very convenient to get into the city, and she can reach the city's largest shopping mall in no time.
Seeing that Jiang Yimei felt extremely guilty and wanted to make amends, Jiang Ze reluctantly agreed: "Okay."
