Chen Zui's mother seemed to be praised rarely and was very happy, "Try how it tastes."
"Okay." Zhen Tian tore off a little wrapping paper and took a bite.
"Is it delicious?" As soon as Zhen Tian bit down, Chen Zui's mother asked her with concern.
The smile on Zhen Tian's face froze for a moment. She swallowed the food in her mouth with difficulty, and said to Chen Zui's mother with a smile, "It's delicious."
Chen Zui's mother was very happy when she heard this, "That's great, you eat more. Lao Chen doesn't even eat these."
"...Okay, thank you, Auntie." Zhen Tian looked at the colorful desserts on the table and fell into deep thought.
Chen Zui picked up a small cake and handed it to Chen Yiran, "Chen Yiran likes these the most. Today is Children's Day, eat more."
Chen Yiran, “...”
Knowing that it is Children’s Day, he still wants to trick him!
Chen Zui's mother has always had a hobby of baking, but because she is busy with work, she only does it occasionally. She doesn't eat it herself because she thinks it's high in calories and would cause her to easily to gain weight.
So she gave them all to Lao Chen, Chen Zui and Chen Yiran to eat.
Lao Chen has no desire to live at all. After eating it once, he vowed never to eat it again, and he also directly criticized the taste of Chen Zui's mother's baking. Although Chen Zui and Chen Yiran boasted that it was delicious, they dilly-dally and didn't eat much every time.
Despite this, Chen Zui's mother's enthusiasm for baking has not been dampened.
Anyway, she did not eat it herself.
After Zhen Tian finished eating the cake in her hand, she took a sip of plain water. Chen Zui leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Although the desserts made by my mother are a bit weird, they won't hurt your stomach."
Zhen Tian pursed her lips, smiled, and nodded.
Seeing that she had finished eating, Chen Zui's mother gave her another pudding, "Eat more, you all probably didn't eat much at noon."
"Thank you, Auntie." Zhen Tian took the pudding and sniffed it lightly. It doesn't smell strange, and it has a strong milky aroma, so it shouldn't be hard to eat.
She picked up a spoon and tasted it. It tasted better than the last cake, but it was still too sweet.
Seeing her eating slowly, Chen Zui took the pudding from her hand, "We’ll have dinner in a while, it's better not to eat so many desserts. Save room in your stomach for a big meal later."
“Okay!”
Lao Chen said coolly at the side, "Don't rely on the fact that the girl is here for the first time and won’t talk badly to bring out these tricks for her to eat."
Chen Zui's mother's complexion changed. She seemed to be ready to fight back when Zhen Tian hurriedly said: "No, no, the desserts made by Auntie are good gestures."
Chen Zui's mother looked at her and laughed again, "That’s why daughters are more considerate."
Lao Chen snorted again and wanted to say that daughters aren’t necessarily trouble-free. However, seeing that Chen Yiran was still here, he swallowed his words again.
"By the way, both of you have met the other’s parents. I think it's better to make an appointment so that we and Xiao Zhen's parents can also meet and have a light meal together." Chen Zui's mother smiled, "If I can discuss your marriage along the way, that would be even better."
Zhen Tian looked at Chen Zui who was sitting beside her. Chen Zui thought for a while, and said, "Chen Yiran’s finals are fast approaching. After he finishes the exam, our two families can meet face-to-face, do you think it's okay?"
"Okay, take Ranran with you when the time comes."
Chen Zui's mother expressed her opinion, and Zhen Tian hurriedly followed, "When I got home, I will talk to my mother about it. They also kept saying that they wanted to meet you two."
"That's good." Chen Zui's mother nodded again, "We don't have anything on schedule this month, so it should be fine. You set a time and just let us know in advance."
“Okay, Auntie.”
In the evening, Chen Zui’s mother really cooked a big meal using the rice and meat won by Chen Yiran. Originally, Zhen Tian was worried. Judging from Chen Zui's mother's skill in making desserts, the taste of this meal might not be very good. However, the Chinese food made by Chen Zui's mother was very delicious, and it was not at the same level as the desserts.
Although Chen Zui's father is also helping in the kitchen, Chen Zui's mother is in charge.
Because it is Children's Day, many of the dishes on this meal were Chen Yiran's favorites, even Coke was prepared for him. Chen Yiran has reaped countless happiness today. He wishes in the three hundred and sixty-five days of the year, the three hundred and sixty-six days are Children's Day.
After dinner, Chen Zui's father was in charge of washing the dishes. Zhen Tian was thinking about going over to help, but Chen Zui's mother dragged her over and talked all night.
Chen Zui looked at the sky outside the window, and rescued Zhen Tian from his mother, "It's getting late. I have to go to work tomorrow, so I'll send them back first."
"Ah, leaving so soon? I haven't said anything yet." Chen Zui's mother also looked at the sky, feeling that it was still early.
Lao Chen snorted at her again, "Your students usually say that you like to drag out your lesson in class. I think it's because you're getting older and becoming more of a chatterbox."
"I'm a chatterbox? You're the only one who keeps moving your mouth all day, how dare you say I'm a chatterbox?"
Chen Zui helped Zhen Tian up from the sofa, looked at his parents, and said, "You two discuss slowly, we'll leave first."
"Are you really leaving? Do you want me to see you off?"
“No need,”
“Thendrive safely.”
Chen Zui's mother watched them get into the elevator and wait for the elevator to close before going back to the house.
After the elevator doors closed, Zhen Tian let out a long breath and finally relaxed. Chen Zui was still supporting her. Feeling that she was putting all her weight on his hands, he couldn't help laughing, "Tired?"
"Yeah." Nothing is more tiring than meeting parents.
Chen Zui freed up a hand to rub her shoulders, "Is this better?"
"Wow, Master Chen's skill is pretty good, put more pressure on this side."
Chen Yiran was speechless by their display of afferction in the elevator. Did they forget that he was here too?
Today is Children's Day, is it really okay to show this to a kid?!
Fortunately, Chen Zui's parents lived on a lower floor, and the elevator reached the first floor in a blink of an eye. Chen Zui led Zhen Tian to the side of the car, and Chen Yiran silently followed behind them.
After participating in a day’s worth of activities in school, Chen Yiran started to doze off in the car. Zhen Tian looked back at him and smiled, “Shanshan sleeps very well. We haven’t been on the road for long and he is already asleep.”
"He’s probably tired from playing today, children are like this."
Zhen Tian nodded and smiled at Chen Zui, "But speaking of it, your parents are quite different from what I imagined. I thought they would be very serious and rigid people who are not easy to get along with."
"They were indeed like this before, especially toward their own children. Maybe now that they are older, they have become more kind."
After hearing what he said, Zhen Tian thought for a while and said, "According to what you said, they should have been very strict when you were young, so how did you become a fighting king?"
Chen Zui smiled, "This is the rebellious psychology that was bred under their high-pressure mindset. Because they were too strict at that time, I specifically picked things they didn't like to do."
“Won’t you get beaten?”
"My parents are better at this point. Although they are very strict with their children, they both like oral education and don’t get physical. But when I changed schools, my mother got angry and whipped me twice with a clothes hanger." When Chen Zui said this, he turned his head and looked at Zhen Tian, "Thinking about it now, the beating was worth it."
It was after this incident that he transferred to the high school where Zhen Tian was attending, and then met her.
Zhen Tian coughed dryly twice and asked him, "What about your sister?"
"My sister..." Chen Zui looked at the road ahead, and his tone seemed to be recalling things from a long time ago, "My sister has a more stubborn temper than me. She left A City after graduating from high school, went to a university in another city, and worked in another city. She would only come back once or twice a year. Later, because of her marriage, she fell out with my family and never came back again. "
Chen Zui thought, maybe because of his sister, his parents have changed now.
Although they don't show it, she is still their daughter. They would reveal their sadness only when they are alone.
Today Zhen Tian didn't go to the store, so Chen Zui sent her home directly. Before leaving, he didn't forget to remind her to tell her mother about the dinner appointment between the two families.
Zhen Tian make a sound of acknowledgment and watched him drive away before returning to the house.
In the living room, the whole family sat neatly on the sofa. When they saw her coming back, they looked at her in unison.
Zhen Tian, “....”
"You’re back? How is today, did it go well?" Ms. Wang Shuzhen was the first to speak.
Zhen Tian went to the living room and responded, "Well, it went well. Uncle and Auntie are kinder than I imagined. By the way, they also said to find a time to invite you to have dinner and meet."
"En, your father and I were also thinking the same thing. I heard from Chen Zui'er that they are very busy with work and often travel far, so let's make time for them."
"Oh, Uncle and Auntie won't be traveling far this month. Chen Zui said that we will have dinner together after Chen Yiran finishes his final exam at the end of the month."
"Okay." Ms. Wang Shuzhen responded, “Xiao Baobei is about to take the final exam? Let him study hard."
"Yes, yes, Shanshan's grades are quite good." Zhen Tian said, and walked upstairs, "Stop talking, I'm so tired today, I need to wash up and go to sleep."
"Hey, I haven't finished asking." Ms. Wang Shuzhen looked at her back and muttered, "Why are you in such a hurry, I haven't finished talking yet."
Zhen Xi stood up, yawned, and walked upstairs, "Mom, you don't have to worry about their affairs. With Zhen Tian's determined attitude, just wait for their wedding feast with peace of mind."
Ms. Wang Shuzhen looked at him angrily, "How can you even say that? Your sister is already talking about marriage, and you don't even have a partner."
"..." Why do you even have to compare this kind of thing? The adult world is so tiring!
Chen Yiran’s final exam was scheduled for the 27th, the week after Children’s Day. Chen Zui chose a weekend for the parents of both sides to meet.
Ever since Zhen Tian started dating, she would skip work from time to time. Zhu Ling finally was able to meet her once at the bar and couldn’t help joking, “Will I be hearing good news from you and Anchor Chen soon?”
Zhen Tian knew that she was gossiping on purpose, but she is in a good mood recently, so let her gossip be satisfied, "Our two families have an appointment to have dinner together at the end of the month. We should discuss the matter of marriage then."
Zhu Ling had been watching Zhen Tian and Chen Z ui from the very beginning. The speed of their relationship’s development was like a rocket, "The reunion of old love sure is efficient. It's only been a few months, and you are going to get married."
And she is all alone.
Zhen Tian came up to her and started gossiping about her, "Your client, after cooperating for so long, has the love not blossomed?"
“What blossoming love? Why are your thoughts so foul?”
"...?" Exactly who is foul?
"He is the vice president of the company. How can this kind of leader show up every time? I basically communicate with the project manager." Zhu Ling said, and then turned the topic back to Chen Zui and Zhen Tian, "Didn’t Anchor Chen's new program just air two days ago? Have you watched it?”
Zhen Tian raised her eyebrows, "I saw it, our whole family watched it together in front of the TV."
Zhu Ling, “...”
Suddenly, she feels sorry for Anchor Chen. The pressure is too big.
"The ratings of that show are quite good, Shu Xuan is indeed the queen of topics." Zhu Ling said this as if she was fishing for more detail.
Zhen Tian clicked her tongue, looked at her, and shook her head, "I say, Zhu Ling, can't you even gossip about new news? It's been a long time since his and Shu Xuan’s news. Now everyone is talking about Gu Xin's secret girlfriend. "
"But I can't see Gu Xin, and aren't you in front of me?"
"..." It's really a little infuriating, "I remember you quite like Gu Xin?"
“Yes, why?”
"At the end of the month, Gu Xin is going to be on an ABA variety show. Chen Zui said he would take me to the TV station to meet him."
Zhu Ling, “...???”
Is it really okay to directly reveal private benefits to the public? Believe it or not, she will go to the TV station to report!
Zhen Tian said this to anger Zhu Ling, but what she said was also true. Chen Zui said that he could take her to the TV station to watch Gu Xin. It was also this time that Zhen Tian found out that Chen Zui and Gu Xin had a pretty good personal relationship. She gossiped about asking Chen Zui whether Gu Xin's girlfriend was real or not, but Chen Zui didn't help Gu Xin hide it and told her directly that it was true.
And this news was revealed on purpose by Gu Xin because he planned to get married next year.
Zhen Tian's jaw almost dropped from shock.
But she didn't tell Zhu Ling about this. Let her get a surprise for herself next year.
The day Gu Xin went to ABA to film happened to be the day of Chen Yiran's final exam. Because it was the last day of the semester, Chen Zui made time to pick him up.
Gu Xin's program was in the afternoon. Zhen Tian met at Gu Xin on the TV station and then followed Chen Zui to school to pick up Chen Yiran.
"Oh my God, did Gu Xin talk to me just now?" Zhen Tian was calm when she saw Gu Xin earlier, but now sitting in the car, she started to lose her cool, "I thought he was very difficult to get along with. Sure enough, people can't be judged by their appearance!"
Chen Zui said, "His relationship with other people in the entertainment industry is pretty good."
“En, after all, he can even be friends with you!”
Chen Zui glanced at her sideways, and said with a light smile, "What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing! It's just that you don't like to make friends, so anyone you are friends with must be good people!"
“I’ll take that as a compliment.”
"It is a compliment!"
The two were chatting, and before they knew it, they arrived outside Chen Yiran's school. The exam is not over yet, and the parents waiting outside are also very quiet. Chen Zui found an empty space to park. When he got off the car, he saw a man standing by the school gate.
He frowned sharply and stared at the man closely.
Seeing his frown, Zhen Tian also glanced at the man at the school gate. She walked up to Chen Zui and asked, "Do you know that man?"
Chen Zui pursed his lips, and it took him a while to speak, "He looks very much like my sister's ex-husband who went to America and disappeared."
