Chu He was very surprised when he received Tang Jing's call. What surprised him was not that Tang Jing asked him to go back to Shanghai, but that Tang Jing asked him to go back with her to meet her parents.

As a staunch defender of non-marriage, Tang Jing has expressed her thoughts to Chu He more than once, but she never tells him the reason. She just wants them to love each other, accompany each other, and walk hand in hand for a lifetime, but not get married.

Chu He was so happy that he couldn't ask for more. After testing Tang Jing once whether she would get married or not, he never mentioned the matter again. After so many years, the two of them could express their concern for each other thousands of miles apart, or get together to spend a sweet time. Sometimes, when Tang Jing was busy, it was common for them not to contact each other for half a month, but when they met again, their feelings were as strong as ever.

All in all, the time Tang Jing spent with Chu He was not even one-tenth of that spent with Wendy. Tang Jing was not dissatisfied with Chu He's decision to go to Beijing instead of returning to Shanghai. On the contrary, she gave him enough support and understanding. No matter what Chu He arranged for or who he wanted to do, she took care of everything.

As a senior partner of Bianchi, she is no longer the same as before. Her status in the industry has surpassed that of He Han, who married, had children and lived in seclusion all his life. Her professional attitude, arrogant look and cold heart have earned her the title of Iron Lady, which is also related to the fact that she does not marry, have children or fall in love. Only a few people know of Chu He's existence, but that was many years ago. Tang Jing, who was privately teased by Chu He as an abstinent person, has also become a person who is detached from the world and has a pure mind in the eyes of outsiders.

Chu He, who had already completed his apprenticeship, immediately returned to the Magic City after receiving the call. Magic Crystal has basically nothing to do with him now. Jincheng is gradually growing, Guo Xinnian and Luca have also become big names in the industry. Since Jincheng retired to the Magic City and no longer cared about Magic Crystal, the two of them always showed up on important occasions. As a revolutionary product of the new era, Magic Crystal has shined all over the world. Magic Crystal exists in all fields and aspects.

Chu He did what he promised Guo Xinnian. Everyone in the technology circle knew Guo Xinnian's name. Guo Xinnian also achieved the position he had always dreamed of, the boss Qiao. He gave speeches, taught classes, published books, was hired as a professor, and held press conferences for Magic Crystal's new products. His every word and every sentence was cited as a golden sentence by young people who wanted to start a business. His every word and every deed was imitated by countless people. His mental journey was repeatedly publicized, and even his ex-wife Xiuxiu, Xu Jiaying and Gaudi in the cafe were dug out. Luo Wei, who was used to seizing opportunities, did not hesitate to make fun of himself. He took the initiative to release the past that he and Guo Xinnian had to talk about, so that others would pay attention to him and sell his own products and concepts along the way.

Luca married Yang Yangyang. At Yang Yangyang's insistence, her stepfather had to take a back seat at the wedding. Chu He sat in the father-in-law's seat with great seriousness and gladly accepted the tea from the two newlyweds, which made Yang Yangyang's mother look at him sideways. If it weren't for this bad guy who led her husband astray, she wouldn't have divorced him in the first place.

Chu He felt annoyed in his heart, "You are an old woman, so stop winking at me. Didn't you see that your current husband couldn't help but grab the wine bottle? It's not polite to be a friend's wife, even if it's an ex-friend, but you are so old, why are you still trying to fawn on me?"

Afterwards, Tang Jing, who was also attending the wedding, was also laughing so hard that she fell backwards. She pretended to be serious and touched Chu He's face and said affectionately: "As expected, there is no age limit for being handsome. You can be handsome from 99 to !"

Alas! What a bad match! The former iceberg beauty now also knows how to tease, Chu He, who had just got off the plane, thought so, but when he saw the iceberg beauty coming to pick him up from a distance, he still opened his arms and hugged this thin body tightly.

I sniffed the familiar aroma in my hair. Yes, that's right! It's this smell, so intimate and comfortable.

"Was it your idea to go meet your parents, or was it your uncle and aunt's idea?" Chu He asked while driving, looking straight ahead.

Tang Jing was lying on the passenger seat, with her legs folded together and sitting on her buttocks, looking extremely lazy. The moment she saw Chu He, all her defenses and burdens were suddenly removed. Now she was lying on the seat and didn't even bother to raise her hands. She just looked at Chu He with admiration and whispered, "I think I have both. After all, I'm almost 40."

Then he suddenly chuckled and said, "I'm almost 40, and you're almost 50. My dad just retired. When you see him, do you call him uncle or brother?"

Chu He also grinned: "You can call him anything, I prefer to call him dad."

Tang Jing said coquettishly: "You are thick-skinned, but my dad can't do that. Don't tease him when you see him."

Chu He turned his head and glanced at Tang Jing, and said gently: "I will listen to you in everything, okay? If you point east, I dare not go west; if you hit the dog, I dare not scold the chicken."

Seeing him saying those indecent words in the most gentle and sweetest tone, Tang Jing finally raised her hand and patted him lightly. As soon as her hand fell, a big hand grabbed her little hand and patted it gently.

The peaceful and warm atmosphere lasted for a long time. The cold little hands were already warmed up. Tang Jing said softly, "Jianqing, do you have any regrets in this life?"

Chu He asked in confusion: "Why do you ask this?"

"I've never seen you have any needs, and I never knew what your goals were. It seems that you are always so fulfilled and optimistic. Are you really free of desires?" Tang Jing said seriously.

Chu He thought about it seriously: "The idea of ​​having no desires is too general. I just have enough capital to enjoy life, and I put it into action. I don't procrastinate or get entangled. I do whatever I think of and do whatever I want."

Tang Jing's eyes flickered and she murmured softly to herself: That's great.

Even though Chu He had amazing hearing, he couldn't hear clearly what Tang Jing said. He was always reluctant to ask questions, so he continued to drive calmly.

Tang Jing's hometown is on the border of Shanghai and Jiangning, and it only takes less than an hour to drive there. Even so, after so many years of dating, Chu He has never met Tang Jing's family once. It's not that Tang Jing doesn't want to, but they both feel it's unnecessary. Just like Chu He's parents in this world, they immigrated a long time ago and lived abroad. When they were young, they were extremely disdainful of Zhuo Jianqing's prodigal behavior. Later, after his divorce, the relationship between the two sides dropped to freezing point.

For so many years, Chu He has never contacted that side, and the other side is the same, as if they will never have any contact again. Chu He has no feelings for him. Since Zhuo Jianqing himself doesn't care about him, there is no need for an outsider like him to cause trouble for himself. In the past few years, several people have contacted him to repay Zhuo Jianqing's emotional debt, but they were all sent away. Although Zhuo Jianqing is a scumbag, his aesthetic taste is still very good. If it weren't for Tang Jing... ahem, and Wendy, he would have been as chaste as a jade. They can exchange some ideas.

Tang Jing guided the car and stopped it in front of a small courtyard. There was a rolling door facing the front of the car, which should be a garage. Through the courtyard wall, one could see a two-story building in the courtyard. The building style should be the Chinese-style villa that has been popular in recent years. The high walls were covered with clusters of roses entwined or climbing everywhere, which made the decoration very pleasing to the eye.

At Tang Jing's signal, Chu He honked the horn twice and waited for a moment, but no one answered. Tang Jing couldn't help but frowned, got out of the car and knocked on the door. Seeing this, Chu He also followed her out.

After a while, when Tang Jing knocked louder and louder, and finally took out her phone to dial out, the door not far away opened, and a young woman came out. She looked about 30 years old and said with dissatisfaction on her face: "Sister, why are you so loud? Xiaobao has been woken up."

Tang Jing's face instantly turned cold: "Didn't I tell you in advance, where are my parents?"

The woman pouted and said, "Grandpa and Auntie are looking after the children in the inner room."

Hearing this, Tang Jing's eyes stabbed at the woman like a knife, causing the woman to take a step back. Tang Jing walked around her and walked in through the gate. Then she took out a remote control and pressed it at the rolling door from a distance, signaling Chu He to drive in. However, seeing Chu He standing there without moving, she said, "Just drive in."

Chu He pointed at the garage and motioned for her to come and see for herself. Tang Jing walked forward and saw that there was a four-wheeled mobility scooter parked in the middle of the garage. In the 5*5 large garage, a small mobility scooter looked extremely abrupt.

Tang Jing turned around and saw the woman, and asked, "Why is uncle's scooter parked here? Can't he park it in the yard?"

The woman complained, "Sister, what's your attitude? My dad's yard is open-air and not rainproof. What's wrong with parking here?"

Tang Jing frowned and her voice turned cold: "It's winter now, where is the rain coming from? Get out of here now."

Hearing Tang Jing's tone, Chu He knew that she was on the verge of getting angry, so he walked up to her and hugged her. The woman opposite her curled her lips in disdain and stood there without moving, apparently not planning to move the car.

Seeing this, Chu He whispered something in Tang Jing's ear. Tang Jing nodded reluctantly and ignored the woman. Chu He drove the car to a place where she would not be in the way, took out the tea and white wine that had been prepared from the reserve area, and followed Tang Jing into the yard. The woman was no longer standing there.

Walking into the gate and crossing the courtyard, Chu He observed the surrounding environment with great interest. It was not bad. The houses were built in a grand manner. There seemed to be about 7 or 8 houses from top to bottom. The layout of the east room, west room and central hall was also very exquisite. However, there were some leeks and green onions planted by the pool in the middle of the courtyard. There was also a wooden frame over there. Although there was nothing on it in winter, it looked like some climbing crops such as loofah and pumpkin. The house was obviously high-end, but these things seemed so abrupt. Are Tang Jing's parents so down-to-earth?

What he didn't see was that Tang Jing, who was walking in front of him, already had a frosty expression on her face.

Pushing the door open and walking in, there was a large front hall with an antique wooden table and chairs and an octagonal table placed in the middle, and decorative items such as screens, desks, and antique shelves on both sides. However, one could only stand at the door and look at it, because the entire hall was littered with toys and sundries, with no place to put their feet. Chu He couldn't help but sigh, it was amazing that a hall of nearly 100 square meters could be filled with so many things.

Tang Jing couldn't bear it any longer and shouted loudly: "Dad! Mom! Mom!"

After a while, hurried footsteps were heard on the stairs next to them, and a silver-haired woman appeared. Seeing Tang Jing and a man standing at the door, she hurriedly straightened her clothes and walked towards them, pushing away the things that were in the way as she walked.

"Xiao Jing, why are you here at this time? Didn't you say it would take two days?" Song Yulan walked over and asked.

Tang Jing asked in confusion: "Mom, I clearly said today."

Song Yulan said: "Your father is talking about the day after tomorrow."

"Where's my dad?"

"Upstairs! Looking after Xiaobao!" Song Yulan replied.

Tang Jing clenched her hands tightly and suddenly shouted: "Tang Jianhua, I'll give you one minute, or you won't see me again!"

Song Yulan was shocked, she pulled Tang Jing and whispered, "What are you talking about? That's your dad!"

When Tang Jing turned her head, her eyes were red: "My dad? This house is almost not mine anymore. I brought my boyfriend back, where is he!"

Song Yulan finally reacted and quickly greeted Chu He beside her: "Hello, I am Tang Jing's mother, Song Yulan."

Chu He bent down, bowed slightly, and handed over the gift: "Auntie, hello, my name is Zhuo Jianqing."

Song Yulan looked at the man in front of her with shining eyes. This was the first time her daughter brought a man home. Song Yulan had been looking forward to seeing him all her life. She finally saw him and felt complicated and excited.

Just as I was about to exchange a few pleasantries, I heard heavy footsteps on the stairs again. The voice came before the person arrived: "Xiao Jing, do you have any manners? I'm your father, can you call me by my name? And why are you shouting so loudly? Xiaobao is still sleeping!"

Tang Jing shook off Song Yulan's hand and said in a deep voice, "You asked me to bring my boyfriend, so I brought him, but where are you? I clearly told you that I would arrive today, but why did my mother tell me that you said the day after tomorrow? Also, what happened to Xiaobao? He has a father, a mother, and his own grandparents, so why does he still need you and my mother to take care of him?"

Tang Jianhua walked down with dissatisfaction. It was a spirited old man, dressed in casual home clothes, plastic slippers on his feet, and his body was in a mess. He walked up and said in a deep voice: "Why are you, an adult, arguing with a child? Xiaobao and I are close, so why do you dislike me? If you don't like me, then give birth to a child for me, don't let people say that I am a childless person!"

Hearing this, Chu He, who had originally had a calm face, couldn't help but frown. These words were a bit too harsh.

Tang Jing also looked at her father with a complicated expression. It was really unexpected that the family, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, was in this atmosphere.

At this time, two elderly people, a man and a woman, walked in from outside the door. As soon as they entered the door, they laughed heartily: "Brother, I heard from Yanyan that your new son-in-law came to your house. Why didn't you inform us? Even if he came in advance, he is still a guest. Don't let others say that our Tang family is rude."

The four of them looked at the people coming. The man in the lead looked similar to Tang Jianhua, while the woman following behind him was extremely short, huddled behind the man. If you didn't look carefully, she would be completely obscured by his figure.

Before Tang Jianhua could speak, the man stretched out his hand first: "Hello, I am Tang Jing's uncle, Tang Jianjun, and this is her aunt."

Unexpectedly, Chu He ignored his outstretched hand and turned to look at Tang Jianhua: "Uncle, my name is Zhuo Jianqing."

Everyone in the room was stunned when they saw Chu He's hand reaching out to Tang Jianhua and his hand behind his back stretched out in the air.
