When Yan Xinrou decided to cook, Liou Qingcheng panicked, "Don't we have Ms Zhao (the maid) at ho? You don't need to cook!"
"Hmph, but Ms Zhao's food isn't as delicious as Lin Tian's. Don't you want to eat the food your husband makes?"
"Uh..." Liou Qingcheng thought for a mont and finally nodded, "I do!"
Lin Tian couldn't help but chuckle, finding this mother-daughter bickering rather amusing.
Suddenly, Yan Xinrou took a couple of sniffs near Lin Tian and asked, "Why do you sll like another woman?"
The hand Lin Tian was using to hold the chicken soup trembled slightly, almost spilling it.
Before Lin Tian could explain, Liou Qingcheng quickly interjected, "Yan Xinrou, is your nose broken? That's clearly my scent."
"You're fooling too! Do you think your mom is that easy to trick? Can't I distinguish between your scent and others?" Yan Xinrou said, glaring.
"The clothes he's wearing now are the ones I bought a few days ago and put in the closet. I sprayed so perfu to get rid of the closet sll."
Yan Xinrou believed about eighty percent of it, "Really?"
Liou Qingcheng replied irritably, "If he had another woman's scent on him, would I be defending him?"
Yan Xinrou thought about it and realized her daughter wasn't that clueless.
Lin Tian was full of questions, his heart almost jumping out of his chest earlier, too nervous to explain. He didn't expect Liou Qingcheng to speak up for him.
Am I dreaming?
"Why are you staring at the chicken soup in a daze? Eat up, it won't taste good if it gets cold." Liou Qingcheng asked, with a look of a virtuous wife and loving mother, "Want to feed you?"
"Uh..." Lin Tian snapped out of it and shook his head, "No need."
"Stop talking nonsense, give it here!"
Feeling guilty, Lin Tian didn't dare disobey. He quickly handed the chicken soup to Liou Qingcheng, advising, "Careful, it's hot."
Having not eaten in days, Lin Tian's stomach was empty, and seeing the chicken soup whetted his appetite. He quickly finished the entire portion.
Seeing Lin Tian eat cleanly, Yan Xinrou smiled contentedly. Suddenly, she said, "Lin Tian, I have sothing to discuss with you."
Rubbing his now full belly, Lin Tian replied, "Just say it, no need to stand on ceremony with ."
"It's nothing big, really. The Spring Festival is coming up. We usually have New Year's Eve dinner at ho, just the three of us. This year, we want you to stay and celebrate with us. But we also thought, since you haven't been ho for a while, you should visit for New Year's, and also, you should introduce Qingcheng to your parents, right?"
Lin Tian remained silent, waiting for more.
Liou Qingcheng was a bit nervous, although confident that Lin Tian's parents would like her. Still, eting the in-laws for the first ti is nerve-wracking for anyone, right?
"But your dad and I staying ho for New Year is just the two of us, which isn't fun. So, we thought about spending it in your hotown together." Yan Xinrou added, excitedly, "I heard you can set off fireworks freely in the countryside, unlike the city. I haven't seen that in years."
Lin Tian chuckled, "Going to my hotown for New Year... probably won't work."
Yan Xinrou was imdiately displeased, "Why? Not welcoming us?"
"No, my parents are currently in Kanyue City. I actually wanted to bring them to stay at your place for a few days and have a lively New Year there." Lin Tian explained.
Yan Xinrou lit up with excitent again, "Sure, how about bringing your parents over these days? Where are they now?"
Lin Tian replied, "They're at my security company. They just arrived not long ago, and I was planning to take Qingcheng to see them. Might as well bring them ho directly."
"Great, that's settled then!" Yan Xinrou announced, radiant with excitent. "We can discuss with your parents about setting a good date for the wedding while they're here."
Lin Tian felt embarrassed, wondering why elders are always in a hurry to plan weddings.
"Mom!" Liou Qingcheng blushed slightly, "I'm still so young and not even at the legal marriage age! Why are you in such a rush to marry off?"
Yan Xinrou nonchalantly replied, "Silly child, you can have the wedding without the certificate and get it later."
"Yan Xinrou! I'm your only daughter, and you're setting up like this?!"
Yan Xinrou spoke in a teaching tone, "What do you an setting you up? Look at Lin Tian: handso, fit, and capable. You have to act fast to not miss out on soone so eligible."
Liou Qingcheng flatly refused, "No way!"
"Lin Tian, look at your wife, why doesn't she understand? Aren't you going to do sothing?"
Lin Tian chuckled bitterly, "Marriage is her call."
"Alright! You two! Planning this together just to irritate ?"
Lin Tian slightly leaned towards his mother-in-law, saying, "Don't worry, I'll work hard so you can have a grandchild soon. By then, Qingcheng would have to marry."
Yan Xinrou imdiately burst into a smile, nodding approvingly, "Hmm, you always have clever ideas!"
Lin Tian was perplexed, what does she an by having many clever ideas?
Liou Qingcheng pinched Lin Tian's waist fiercely, huffing, "You're going to sleep alone, and let's see how you'll manage alone then."
Lin Tian suddenly felt like Liou Qingcheng and Bai Shishi had discussed sothing, as they both seed to avoid marriage-related issues yet were supportive of him on other matters.
Wouldn't any other girlfriend flip out if there was another woman's scent on their boyfriend?
…
Lin Tian packed up his things, settled the discharge procedures, and after bidding farewell to Bai Shishi and i Ruyan, he returned to Liou Qingcheng's ho.
Back ho, Yan Xinrou started bustling about. First, she wanted to know what Lin Tian's parents like to eat, what kind of alcohol they prefer, and their living habits.
She also urged the couple to go shopping and buy so things to visit the elders, then bring them ho.
Given the importance of her future parents-in-law, Liou Qingcheng was naturally cautious. She changed outfits and left with Lin Tian to shop.
When Lin Tian and Liou Qingcheng arrived at the street, he suddenly realized he didn't know his parents as well as he thought. His dad liked smoking and drinking, but he honestly didn't know what his mom liked.
Liou Qingcheng said, "No worries, we'll buy a variety, surely there'll be sothing they like."
Liou Qingcheng loved shopping, and now had a 'legit' reason, so she was thrilled.
They shopped around, buying quite a bit, including blood bird's nest, couple outfits for his parents, and so jewelry.
"Couple outfits? I doubt my parents would wear those."
"How would they wear it if you didn't buy them? Picture them in it, wouldn't it be adorable?"
Lin Tian imagined it and nodded.
Liou Qingcheng smiled satisfied, buying three sets, saying the whole family wearing them would be even more loving.
