Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

Chapter 26 Meng Yanchen 26

Fu Wenying was somewhat surprised when Meng Yanchen returned home that evening.

"When did you get back? Why didn't you give me a heads-up? I could have had the maid cook you some dishes."

After taking off his suit and handing it to the maid, Meng Yanchen stepped forward and sat down on the sofa next to him.

"No need, I've already had dinner."

As for the return time, the flight is this morning.

This made Fu Wenying even more confused.

"You didn't even tell me you were coming back, and where did you go all day?"

Meng Yanchen couldn't help but lower his head and laugh. He had a very pleasant meeting with his future in-laws today, and he was still happy thinking about it.

"I visited Ayu's parents today with a gift, so I just got back."

When Meng Yanchen said those words, Fu Wenying was almost speechless with frustration.

"You're only thinking about visiting the woman's parents, haven't you thought about bringing her home to meet your own parents?"

Meng Yanchen had certainly thought about this question, so he immediately gave a serious answer.

"I'm meeting Ayu's parents today because they want to see me."

Ayu was certain that her parents would be friendly to me after my visit, so I had a very pleasant time with them today.

"But Mom, you never asked me to meet my girlfriend. If I bring her home without permission, and she gets criticized and dissatisfied with me, I might lose her."

Therefore, I will not do such risky things.

Fu Wenying choked up.

In recent years, she has become increasingly aware of one thing: her son has truly grown up and is no longer under his parents' control.

Although this is a good thing, I feel inexplicably disappointed.

"As children grow up, they often feel that their parents' experience is no longer useful, but parents can't just stand by and watch them go astray!"

As soon as Fu Wenying said this, Meng Yanchen patiently explained.

"Mom, you are a successful businesswoman. You and Dad built Guokun Group from scratch. I am your son."

As long as I don't break the law, harm my body, or disrespect myself, even if I make some mistakes, aren't they actually helpful to my life experience?

Sometimes you want me to avoid some detours, but I have to walk my own path in life. If I hit a wall, I will naturally reflect on it.

If I had never made any mistakes, I would probably have ended up as a useless person.

Fu Wenying had never realized so clearly that her son was fully capable of living his own life.

"Yan Chen, I have no problem with your girlfriend."

Mom just wants to ask you one thing: your girlfriend will be getting busier and busier in the future, and after you graduate, you'll also be taking on Guokun's responsibilities. Have you thought about how you plan to balance your career and your relationship?

Fu Wenying's words delighted Meng Yanchen, as this was the first time his mother had expressed her feelings for him.

"Mom, no one knows for sure whether tomorrow or an accident will come first, and no one can balance career and love perfectly. It's something that can't be balanced in the first place."

All I can do is to do everything well, be filial to you and Dad, take care of and spend time with my girlfriend, and shoulder the responsibilities of Guokun. That's the only direction I can strive towards.

A mature person is never arrogant and thinks that everything in the world is under their control.

Fu Wenying had no more opinions to offer, so she stood up and spoke.

"If you have time, bring your girlfriend home to meet me and your father sometime."

This time, you visited the woman's parents first, which is something the man should have done.

However, if we're going to discuss engagement in the future, you can no longer ignore me and your father; both sets of parents must meet for this.

Meng Yanchen's face lit up with surprise, even though he was prepared for his parents' disapproval.

However, it would be best if the marriage could be approved by both sets of parents.

The next day, when Tang Yu was playing tennis with Meng Yanchen, she learned that Fu Wenying had given in.

"When your mother mentioned engagement, she wouldn't mean she wants to hold an engagement ceremony as soon as possible, would she?"

Meng Yanchen had never considered this possibility, but now that he thought about it, it seemed like there was indeed a hint of it.

"Actually, engagement ceremonies can be quite complicated sometimes. If you don't want to, we can just walk down the aisle in the future."

Meng Yanchen only liked the marriage certificate. Although the engagement ceremony was more legitimate, it wasn't what he wanted most.

Tang Yu smiled and hit another ball, then thought for a while.

"It seems that athletes like to get married after retiring, but I don't think it's a big deal."

"If you want to get your marriage certificate earlier, I think it can be done after the Olympics."

Meng Yanchen immediately put down his racket and walked helplessly to Tang Yu's side.

"Don't propose to me so suddenly. I'm not prepared at all. I should be the one to take the initiative in these kinds of things."

Tang Yu smiled brightly, then put down her racket and jumped up, landing steadily on Meng Yanchen.

Meng Yanchen instinctively hugged the person in front of him, his arms tightly wrapped around Tang Yu's waist.

"I was a second slow in my reaction, and you fell down!"

Meng Yanchen's words were somewhat displeased, but Tang Yu smiled gently, then hugged Meng Yanchen's head and kissed him.

"Your body reacts faster than you think, and I never worry about that."

As for marriage, there are still more than half a year until the Olympics. I've given you so much time to prepare for the proposal; shouldn't you be secretly happy?

Looking at the person so close to him, Meng Yanchen felt his heart being filled by this person.

He tilted his head back, kissed her, and laughed.

"Then I'll keep you hooked."

This world will end tomorrow.

Chapter 27 Meng Yanchen 27

Before the Chinese New Year, Meng Yanchen took Tang Yu back to the Meng family home to meet his parents.

Meng Huaijin is a very easy-going person, and he is friendly and approachable when talking to people.

Fu Wenying is a little arrogant, but she is also polite and well-mannered.

Overall, they got along fairly well, the only difference being that the Meng family had more rules.

However, this is only in comparison to Tang Yu's family; one is more rigorous, while the other is more relaxed.

However, for Tang Yu, this didn't seem to be something she found hard to accept.

She always felt that these rules were nothing, and that she must have experienced days with much more complicated rules.

Therefore, the little habits of the Meng family seemed incredibly simple to her.

After dinner, Fu Wenying led everyone to the tea room to chat.

Tang Yu saw that Fu Wenying was about to make her some tea, and she smiled and spoke up.

"Auntie, I learned a tea-making skill when I was reading books before. How about I make a fool of myself and try it out today?"

Fu Wenying was somewhat surprised. So far, the conversation between the two had been rather polite, without any deeper understanding between them.

But Tang Yu's initiative this time made Fu Wenying somewhat happy.

After all, her son is aloof and sometimes seems unapproachable, while her daughter is studying abroad and sometimes hangs up the phone after only a few words.

On the contrary, the future daughter-in-law in front of them seemed much more approachable and friendly, and her lifestyle and hobbies seemed to be in line with the Meng family's pace.

"Okay, give it a try. Don't feel pressured. You can learn to make tea slowly."

Tang Yu smiled and then took out a tea set from the cabinet next to her.

Looking at Tang Yu's elegant posture, Meng Yanchen felt a little jealous. Ayu had never performed tea-making in front of him before, and she didn't seem like she had just learned.

Fu Wenying and Meng Huaijin were genuinely surprised. This action didn't resemble ordinary tea brewing at all; rather, it was more like Kung Fu tea.

When the two of them meet with clients, they usually need to invite a professional master to see this kind of craftsmanship.

Yan Chen's girlfriend is indeed very talented; at least she's not the uncultured sports student that Fu Wenying imagined.

After completing the tedious steps, Tang Yu steadily picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for each of the four people. The steam carrying the aroma of tea rose gently.

The tea room seemed to have a sense of tranquility at this moment.

"Uncle, Aunt, Yan Chen, have a taste."

It is said that only by brewing this tea using the traditional Gongfu method can one truly appreciate its flavor.

As she spoke, Tang Yu bowed slightly and then presented the teacups to the three people one by one with both hands.

Meng Huaijin took the teacup, gently blew on it to cool it down, took a small sip, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Hmm, this tea has a rich aroma and a long-lasting sweet aftertaste. Xiaoyu's tea-brewing skills are really good."

After taking a bite, Fu Wenying smiled, her satisfaction with Tang Yu reaching its peak at that moment.

"That's really good. There aren't many young people who love drinking tea these days. It's rare to meet someone like you who is interested in brewing tea."

"Is Xiaoyu free tomorrow?"

Tang Yu nodded first, and then asked in response.

"Auntie, please feel free to ask if there's anything you need. Yan Chen and I finally have a holiday, so we definitely want to spend more time with you elders."

"Sometimes when your aunt watches the news, she always feels that those clothes don't suit you."

"Tomorrow, your aunt will take you shopping for some clothes, and then we'll have a designer order some custom-made clothes, how about that?"

Fu Wenying's words made Meng Yanchen lower his head and laugh uncontrollably, while Tang Yu readily agreed.
