"Tap tap!"
This startled her, and she immediately asked warily, "Who is it?"
Lin Congzhi succinctly replied: "Me!"
Jiang Yimei frowned: "What are you doing here?"
Given the current special circumstances, Lin Congzhi is usually busy with work and forgets about her existence. Why is he acting so strangely today? Is he trying to repeat his domineering behavior from before?
Lin Congzhi explained from outside the door, "My parents brought food."
"Huh?" Jiang Yimei was utterly astonished, her heart suddenly filled with panic; she then frantically tried to think of a way to deal with the situation, and stammered, "I...I ordered takeout, you guys eat it yourselves."
Lin Congzhi knew she would react this way, and immediately pointed out a rather awkward consequence: "If you don't come out to eat, they'll just keep waiting here."
Jiang Yimei could not bear such a threat; after thinking it over, she had no choice but to come out and meet these two kind and amiable elders.
Seeing Jiang Yimei still half-concealing her face and hesitating inside for a long time before finally coming out, Lin's parents thought that Jiang Yimei was either afraid of them or felt embarrassed.
Such a shy woman is usually well-educated and polite; the son has chosen a good wife.
Upon opening the door, Jiang Yimei instantly saw the Lin family elders, whom she hadn't seen for a day; in addition, she also saw Xiao Kai.
Xiao Kai's presence made her feel much more relaxed, at least she didn't have to think of it as meeting the parents.
She walked shakily to the coffee table and politely greeted the Lin family elders, who were already wearing kind smiles: "Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
"Hey, hey, everyone's doing well!"
Mr. and Mrs. Lin thought their daughter-in-law was really good; she was reserved, virtuous, gentle, and beautiful.
"Please sit down, please sit down, the food will get cold soon."
Jiang Yimei felt extremely embarrassed as she stared at the spot that the two elders of the Lin family had given her.
That spot has Xiao Kai on the left and the two elders of the Lin family on the right. Even with such a large space available, Lin Congzhi might still have to squeeze in.
The thought of being caught between Lin Congzhi and his parents sent chills down her spine and filled her with unbearable embarrassment.
After carefully considering her words, she said nervously, "Uncle and Aunt, there isn't enough room for five people on one sofa. I'll go into the office and bring out chairs so we can all eat around the coffee table."
After saying that, he took off running, faster than a rabbit.
Seeing this scene, Mr. and Mrs. Lin were speechless with astonishment, staring blankly at each other.
This child is really afraid of them; is it shyness, or fear of their seriousness?
They didn't seem serious at all; the only explanation is that they were shy.
Indeed, it's understandable that she's afraid of them after only meeting a few times; once they get to know each other better, Jiang Yimei will no longer be afraid of them.
Gao Jiakai felt that his sister-in-law was in a bad situation, but it was a hurdle she had to overcome, so there was nothing to sympathize with.
But Lin Congzhi felt a little sorry for him.
But when asked to come up with a solution, he couldn't think of anything.
Jiang Yimei rushed over, panting, after moving a chair out of the office.
The chair isn't for anyone else to sit on; it's for yourself.
After moving out, she plopped down in the chair without saying a word or being polite at all.
Lin's parents' lips twitched slightly, sensing that everything Jiang Yimei had done was to guard against them.
The son also moved a chair over and sat in his computer chair, looking across the coffee table at Jiang Yimei.
The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Sitting next to Mr. and Mrs. Lin, Gao Jiakai turned the tide and rescued this "future family": "Everyone, stop standing there, let's eat, let's eat!"
