Chapter 173 She Has to Be Where Her Boyfriend Is

After lunch, Shang Bai asked Qin Chen to go to the study, while Ye Xi accompanied his mother upstairs for a lunch break.

Zhong Lan was in a good state of mind, and she didn't intend to go to bed when she arrived in the room, so she pulled her daughter to sit by the bed and asked her what plans she had for the next few years.

My mother rarely asks about these things. Ye Xi didn't think much about it at first, and honestly gave a rough overview of what he was going to do in the next two years. Unexpectedly, Ms. Zhong didn't agree after hearing it.

"You only care about your career, and you don't even plan your life's major events?"

Ye Xi pretended not to understand: "Is work not considered a major event in life?"

"I'm talking about you and Qin Chen."

"..."

The air was silent for a few seconds.

Ye Xi looked at his mother and said uncertainly: "Mom, this is the first time I've come here. You don't want to investigate and investigate, so you just decide for me?"

"A person's eyes don't lie."

Zhong Lan patted the back of his daughter's hand, and smiled lovingly at the end of his eyes: "Although this child Qin Chen doesn't talk much, his every little move, the tenderness and love he inadvertently revealed to you, is the same as when your father looked at me back then. The appearance is exactly the same as when I was there, and based on this, I think it is enough."

As long as there is love, that's enough...

This sentence suddenly pierced Ye Xi's heart. In fact, when it comes to feelings, the older generation's views are sometimes purer than those of young people. The purer things in this world are, the stronger they are, and the less so. Falls apart easily.

If she had been half as transparent as her mother in the past, she would not have plunged herself into the abyss and separated herself from the person she likes for three years.

The room was quiet, Ye Xi gathered his thoughts, and heard his mother continue to say: "Besides, with Qin Chen's financial strength, there is no problem in ensuring that you have enough food and clothing in the future. In terms of character, I am 1 rest assured that you have Uncle Shang guarding the gate. As for other..."

Thinking of this, Zhong Lan asked casually, "Have you met Qin Chen's parents?"

Ye Xi's heart twitched suddenly, he buried his head silently, and said softly: "His parents died in an accident three years ago."

what.

Zhong Lan froze for a moment.

For a moment, the air was a little quieter than before.

Sensing the abnormality, Ye Xi raised his head and saw his mother clutching her heart with a pale face: "Mom, what's wrong with you, are you feeling unwell?"

Zhong Lan met her daughter's concerned and anxious eyes, and the sudden arrhythmia gradually eased.

After a long time, she sighed: "What a poor child."

"..."

Ye Xi opened her mouth and was about to speak, when her mother slowly said, "Qin Chen has lost his parents, and we are his only relatives in this world, so from now on, as a mother-in-law, I have to treat him like my own son." Treat him the same, and you, my daughter, should be more considerate and treat Qin Chen better."

? ?
After listening to his mother's words, Ye Xi's heart was extremely complicated, he was moved, happy, and also slightly surprised.

From childhood to adulthood, Ms. Zhong has acted as a rational image of half kindness and half strictness in her life.

Growing up so big, it was the first time I saw my mother without hesitation... turning her elbows outward.

She smiled and asked tentatively, "Mom, what kind of ecstasy soup did Qin Chen give you?"

"Stinky girl, what are you talking about?"

Zhong Lan poked Ye Xi's head with his hand: "What is ecstasy soup, I'm telling the truth."

"Anyway, Qin Chen's son-in-law, I'm sure. Don't you mean that you have a four-day vacation? I have already had the two guest rooms on the third floor cleaned out. During the few days you stay in Nanshi, don't go back and forth to the hotel. It's too troublesome, just live at home, let me also enjoy the life of my daughter and son-in-law Chenghuan."

The mother's face was full of happiness, but Ye Xi still had to interrupt her: "Qin Chen still has work for the next few days, so I'm afraid he has to leave this afternoon."

Zhong Lan was taken aback for a moment, although she was somewhat disappointed, but she knew that it was normal for a director to be very busy.

"It's okay, let him be busy, work is important."

Mother turned to ask, "What about you?"

"I have nothing to do, of course I will stay with you in the villa."

After Ye Xi finished speaking, she thought her mother would be a little happier, but her attitude was far from what she had imagined.

Zhong Lan pondered for a while, then shook his head: "No."

? ?
"I just fell in love, so what's the point of leaving my boyfriend aside? I have a big house here, and you are accompanied by Uncle Shang. You are not missing. You and Qin Chen will go back to Jingzhou together, and come back next time when you find time." Just watch me."

"..."

Seeing her mother's stubborn face, Ye Xi had no choice but to see that it was getting late, so she knelt down to take off the slippers for Ms. Zhong, forcing her to go to bed for a lunch break.

Zhong Lan looked down at her filial and sensible daughter, and stroked her black and soft hair with her hands, feeling warm in her heart.

……

The years are quiet, but time flies by quickly.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Chen finished talking to the elders one after another and got up to leave. Ye Xi sat motionless on the sofa and protested silently.

Seeing this, Zhong Lan kept urging him, just barely waving the broom to push him away.

From the beginning to the end, a certain director stood aside with a smile on his face and watched from the sidelines, occasionally interjecting a few words to ask Ye Xi to stay, which attracted Zhong Lan to praise him for being sensible, but turned his head and changed his face in seconds, as if nothing had happened Continue to urge people away as if something happened.

Ye Xi couldn't stand such a mother, rubbed his brows and moved his nest, walked slowly to the entrance to change his shoes, nodded at Shang Bai, and said to his mother as if surrendering: "Eat well, sleep well, think about me Call me, I'm leaving."

Zhong Lan only smiled, but did not speak, suppressing the moisture in his eyes.

Until the two walked out of the gate hand in hand, Shang Bai looked at his wife's gradually flushed eyes, put his arms around her shoulders and sighed: "Since you are reluctant, let the child stay for a few more days."

Zhong Lan shook her head: "At her age, she should be allowed to pursue her own happiness. I don't have any other wishes. I just hope that before I close my eyes, I can see my daughter have a small family of her own."

"What's wrong with your eyes? You are now in good health and all indicators are stable. Don't talk nonsense and calm down. I want you and me to grow old forever."

grow old together……

Zhong Lan smiled, thinking of the dream that had frequently appeared in recent days, but couldn't stop feeling depressed and hesitant.

It has been about ten years since the last time I had such a dream.

At that time, I was plagued by nightmares for half a month, and it didn't take long for my husband to have an accident.

She has never believed that dreams can predict the future, but things are unpredictable. With this disease, even if it is well controlled, accidents will inevitably happen.

Zhong Lan is not afraid of death, what he fears most is not being able to see his daughter step into the palace of marriage while alive.

Ye Xi is Zhong Lan's only concern for the rest of her life. Even if she lacks the company of Chenghuan like an ordinary family, as a mother, she must do everything possible to make her daughter happy.

Qin Chen is a reliable candidate. Even though it's the first time we meet formally, sometimes, based on intuition, one glance is enough to see a person.

Especially in the morning in the backyard, when talking with the child for just a few minutes, Zhong Lan's heart was touched and shocked at that time, even she herself did not expect it.
