Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest.

Chapter 329: Late Bloomer, Overconfident

When it comes to showing off, there are different ways to show off to different people in different situations.

For someone who knows cars, slowly stopping your luxury car in front of them is the best way to show off. But if the other person doesn't know cars, it's like flirting with a blind man, which will have no effect at all.

For example, Xie Ruoxi's parents and relatives may not even know how to use mobile banking, let alone easily believe the bank's reminder text messages.

The passbook is actually the most visually striking thing.

After Yan Yu knocked on the door, Xie's mother came to her senses and panicked. She quickly stuffed the passbook back into her daughter's hands and said repeatedly:

"Put it away! How can you just take out so much money?!"

What she meant was actually "You can't let your aunt see this, otherwise the news will spread back to the village, and what will happen if everyone comes to borrow money?" But to her aunt's ears, it became naked humiliation and ridicule.

Seeing that his wife's expression was not right, the uncle quickly changed the subject and said:

"Is that Ruoxi's colleague outside? I'll open the door."

He opened the door of the study and Yan Yu walked in from outside.

This guy usually dresses quite casually, but at this moment he was wearing a white shirt with a dark leather jacket on the outside. His whole outfit was rather serious and dull, and his expression was stern, just like the young prosecutor in a TV drama.

Before Xie's mother could react, Xie's father was stunned and suddenly said:

"Yan Zhanlong?"

He didn't recognize Lin Ning when he saw her before, firstly because he didn't look carefully, and secondly because the girls from the Zhenhai team basically wore heavy makeup whenever they appeared on TV (after all, even beautiful women would look ugly without makeup on TV), and only Yan Yu herself didn't wear much makeup.

Now the real person appeared, exactly the same as in the video, and his aura was imposing enough for Xie's father to recognize him quickly.

The sound of Yan Zhanlong instantly scared my aunt away half of her soul.

Yan Yan Yan Yan Yan slays the dragon? ! !
Yan Yu walked into the room, nodded to everyone with a dignified look, and then said to Xie Ruoxi:

"Pay attention to your appearance, the commander-in-chief will be coming this time."

Commander-in-chief... The four elders gasped again.

This official title does not sound very domineering, but it has a more widely circulated name, called "Grand Marshal of the Zhendong Army", which is a household name.

Xie Ruoxi was speechless. No matter how clueless her little brain was, she could tell that the captain was deliberately trying to save her face. But seeing her parents and aunt all bewildered, she still subconsciously felt a bit of fun, a bit of bullying.

No, Xixi can't laugh! If she laughs here, her aura will be overwhelmed!
"Well." She also put on a serious expression and asked, "Can I wear my open-back evening gown?"

Everyone:………………

What the hell is an evening gown? Are you going to wear high heels and carry a luxury bag? Yan Yu corrected her subtly:

"No, just wear some formal clothes. Elders, come with me downstairs and sit down while she changes."

Xie's parents thought it was right, and followed Yan Yu downstairs. Auntie was still in a trance, and after being pulled by her uncle, she numbly followed him.

After everyone in the bedroom had left, Xie Ruoxi couldn't help but grin and laugh heartily.

She had never known that showing off in front of her family and relatives could be so pleasurable, like drinking a whole bottle of iced soda in the dog days of summer, and every pore in her body seemed to open up and breathe. From childhood to adulthood, her mother's most common expression was one of disappointment, and the most common phrase she uttered was, "Can you please do better?" Eventually, perhaps accepting her daughter's worthlessness, she stopped scolding her and simply sighed when things got tough.

To be honest, I might as well continue to criticize her! I always feel like my mother has completely abandoned me.

Although her father was always quiet and never scolded her harshly, whenever she got a bad grade in school or was called in for a parent-teacher talk, he would smoke a lot of cigarettes until the ashtray overflowed with ashes.

As for relatives outside, although they rarely mentioned it to her face, when they gathered during the New Year and other holidays, three or five people would gather together to say bad things about her behind her back. The occasional contemptuous looks from her parents made Xie Ruoxi feel a little painful, but it was never as unforgettable as the numb expressions of her parents. Even though it was silent, it had been engraved deep in her heart.

Perhaps after graduating from high school, I subconsciously chose to give up studying because I didn't want to continue spending my parents' money and have to bear their hopes and disappointments...

Thinking back to the shocked and speechless expressions of his parents and the horrified look on his aunt's face as she refused to believe the reality, Xie Ruoxi felt an extreme sense of pride, as if all the bad feelings of so many years had been released.

Xixi, I am not the useless person I used to be!
After picking out the best clothes from the closet and putting them on, Xie Ruoxi left the room with a sense of satisfaction. When she went downstairs, she saw all the elders talking to Yan Yu cautiously.

Yan Zhanlong's fame did not spread to the rural areas of Jingnan after he killed the dragon, but during the awarding of medals in October. Various new media hyped it up and played the patriotism card, causing the vast rural population across the country to know that there was such a young hero, a "powerful figure who was personally awarded medals by the bigwigs of the Privy Council."

Now that a powerful person is sitting here, even though there is a big age difference between them, the four elders dare not neglect him at all. They just wait for Yan Yu to ask a question and they answer it, as if the order of seniority is completely reversed.

Yan Yu did not act aggressively. He praised Xie Ruoxi in front of Xie's mother and father, saying that she was "the absolute main force of the team," "she will become a hero defending the country in the future," and "the commander-in-chief personally inquired about her situation." Then he began to praise Xie's mother and father, "You raised a good daughter," and "I want to thank you for your dedication and hard work on behalf of the country."

These words made Xie's father and mother glow, as if they had eaten ginseng fruit and regained their youth. They even spoke unclearly and stammered.

Looking at the two people next to him, my uncle seemed to be quite proud of it, while my aunt looked as if she had eaten shit, with a gray and decadent expression on her face, as if she was saying "I won't accept this".

"Xie Ruoxi is here too, let's go." Yan Yu noticed Xie Ruoxi coming down and said immediately.

He led everyone out. Xie Ruoxi hadn't taken a few steps when Xie's mother hugged her tightly and said with a smile:

"Ruoxi has really come through this time. I told you Rushan wouldn't lie, but your dad didn't believe me and insisted on coming over to see for himself. Now he finally believes it, right?"

Although she seemed to be mocking her husband, her eyes were actually on her cousin.

My aunt's face immediately turned red as liver, and she was speechless for a long time. My uncle, who was sensible, quickly came out to smooth things over and said:

"Oh, we've watched Ruoxi grow up since she was little, and we've long known she'd be a late bloomer. Now that she's finally making it big, we're very happy as her relatives."

This is so untrue, because wasn't it your wife who said the most bad things about Xie Ruoxi in the past?

But Xie's mother was a person who wanted to save face after all. She couldn't continue to hold on to the compliments of her relatives, otherwise it would seem mean. So she hummed, raised her chin again to look at her cousin, and said to her husband in a haughty manner:

"Then let's go."

Everyone headed outside. Xie Ruoxi was also in high spirits. When she passed by Yan Yu, she suddenly reached out to hold his hand for some unknown reason.

Yan Yu reacted even faster and slapped her hand away.

Xie Ruoxi finally reacted and put her hand away awkwardly, looking a little embarrassed.

Although no one else noticed this little action, Xie's mother on the other side noticed it.

Although he didn't mention it, he was secretly thinking about it.
