Chapter 41 Parents
On the day of the family dinner, Shen Xing's parents arrived first. Chu Yan was no longer as reserved as before when facing Shen Xing's parents. She also had a strange feeling that when Shen Xing's parents looked at her, they seemed a little guilty.

After the engagement party, Shen's mother kept thinking over and over again whether Shen Xing had done something bad to trick the girl into becoming his partner. As an educated person, she would never allow her son to do anything illegal. Not long after, Shen Xing did return home and explained.

"I've had a crush on Yanyan for many years, but because she had a boyfriend before, I never dared to confess."

"But Yanyan's ex-boyfriend let her down, and Yanyan was injured in an accident and lost her memory. After she woke up, I was bewitched and said that I was her fiancé."

"She believed it."

"Dad, Mom, I will marry Yanyan."

The couple took a long time to digest this fact, and then there was chaos.

Father Shen was so angry that he picked up the thickest book on the bookshelf. This man, who was rated as the most elegant professor by his students, was now shouting that he would smash the bastard to death.

Mother Shen was so angry that her hands were shaking. "You lied to her! I know you are a jerk at ordinary times, but I never thought you could be this bad! Have you ever thought about what to do if she recovers her memory one day!"

In the past, when his parents were about to play mixed doubles, Shen Xing would have definitely run away long ago, but now he stood still, neither dodging nor avoiding, and said stubbornly: "If Yanyan recovers her memory, she can hate me or want to kill me, I am willing to accept it, but I will not separate from her. Even if she kills me now, I will never let go."

Shen Xing's parents were suddenly stunned.

They have seen Shen Xing behave in an unreliable manner too many times, and some even thought that this kid was useless, so they should just keep a small account. However, he started to work hard again, was admitted to a prestigious university, and is now starting his own business, which is quite successful.

His parents were of course relieved that he had transformed from a monkey into a human being, but now he had become a bastard again. They were too old to bear this roller coaster-like excitement.

Father Shen said with a sullen face: "You asked us to help you cheat people together, I can't do it."

Mother Shen was more sensitive and delicate. When she looked at Shen Xing, she couldn't help but think of his various ridiculous behaviors in the past, and she had some vague guesses in her mind.

"I never thought of asking you to help me lie." Shen Xing said seriously: "I just ask you to pretend that you know nothing and don't ask about Yanyan's past."

Father Shen said: "The deeper you hide it from her now, the greater the price you will pay in the future."

"I know, I know everything..." Shen Xing lowered his eyebrows and was silent for a while. He raised his eyes and smiled again, "But I am happy now."

If his current happiness has overdrawn all the luck in his future life, even if there is only pain left in his future life, he will still grasp this little satisfaction in front of him.

To him, Chu Yan is definitely more than just someone he likes.

She is his youth, his lover, and his soul.

Shen Xing knew what he wanted when he was fifteen years old. Seven years later, what he wanted had not changed. Not only had it not changed, but it had become more and more deeply rooted in his heart, making him so clear that he could only and only want one Chu Yan in his life. Now, in the bustling old house, everyone had a smile on their face, but in fact, there were not many people who could really laugh.

Mother Shen asked Chu Yan with concern, "Are you used to living here these days?"

"It's a habit." Chu Yan smiled and said, "Everyone is very nice. Grandma also told me a lot about Shen Xing's childhood. It was very interesting."

Mother Shen looked at Chu Yan's smile and felt very uncomfortable. She couldn't help but glance at Gu Chuan on the other side secretly, and her mind was indescribably complicated.

Chu Yan was somewhat sensitive to interpersonal feelings. She noticed that Shen's mother's attitude towards her did not seem as relaxed and cheerful as it was when they met before, and she began to feel uneasy.

She didn't know what she had done wrong to cause her future mother-in-law to dislike her.

Shen Xing came over with a bright smile on his face, put a hand on Chu Yan's shoulder, and told her with a smile, "Grandma is arranging flowers over there, my dad can't help at all, Yanyan, go and take a look?"

Chu Yan nodded, "Okay."

As soon as Chu Yan left, Shen Xing's mother exchanged glances and walked to the door to talk in tacit understanding.

"You did so many ridiculous things in the past, and even said that you like men. It was all for today."

After Shen Xing heard what his mother said, he paused for a moment and said, "Not entirely."

Mother Shen sneered, "Then why do you want to make your reputation so bad?"

"On the one hand, I don't want to be like Gu Chuan, who has to live a tiring life with so much hope placed on him. On the other hand, as you said, I want to be with Yanyan."

"Yes, first make everyone despair of you, so that no matter what kind of woman you bring home, we will be satisfied, and naturally we won't embarrass the person you like." Mother Shen held her breath, "Shen Xing, you came out of my belly, why didn't I see that you are so scheming and so good at pretending before?"

After realizing something was wrong, Mother Shen investigated Chu Yan's identity. The result really surprised her. Chu Yan was actually Gu Chuan's ex-girlfriend of seven years!
Mother Shen had heard Mrs. Gu complain before, saying that Gu Chuan was a good child, but he was blinded by the daughter of a nouveau riche. Mother Shen did not comment and just thought that Mrs. Gu was talking nonsense.

After all, when she was with Mr. Shen, she also faced a lot of opposition.

But she also had some thoughts at the time. She thought that if the girl really married into the Gu family, she would probably be bullied by her mother-in-law.

At that time, she didn't think much about it. It was Gu Chuan looking for a girlfriend, not Shen Xing looking for a girlfriend, so it had nothing to do with her. She never expected that this matter would actually have something to do with her in the end!

Mother Shen thought about the big and small changes in her son over the years, and was shocked to find that Shen Xing had actually fallen in love with Chu Yan many years ago.

Shen Xing had actually been secretly in love with his cousin’s girlfriend for so many years, and he even took advantage of the girl’s amnesia to sneak into her!
Mother Shen had never experienced such a great mental shock. This absurd and outrageous feeling made her feel disgusted when she looked at her own son.
