Urban drama: Starting from rejecting Fan Shengmei on a blind date
Chapter 285 Your man is not short of money, so do it to the best of your ability
Zhou Chen and Guan Juer drove to her hometown early in the morning. At the dinner table, Guan's father wanted to test Zhou Chen, but no one was interested.
Guan Juer's heart is on Zhou Chen's side, and Guan's mother is also very satisfied with Zhou Chen. It is said that drinking is harmful to the body. Seeing Zhou Chen being forced to drink by Guan's father all the time, they are of course very distressed.
As a result, Guan's father's plan to get Zhou Chen drunk was doomed to fail, and he could only drink alone.
After lunch, the drunk Mr. Guan was helped directly into the room to rest, while Zhou Chen and Guan Juer went out for a walk together. Their purpose was of course to prepare for tonight's dinner, and they came out to choose a hotel.
"Zhou Chen, I'm really sorry. My dad just went too far. He wasn't like this before. He always doted on me. I don't know what's wrong with him today.
He gave you a cold shoulder the moment you came over. It's obvious he was trying to get you drunk on purpose. I hope you're not mad at him."
Guan Juer explained carefully, but Zhou Chen said nonchalantly: "I know why your father is like this. It is said that a daughter is a father's little cotton-padded jacket. Now this little cotton-padded jacket is going to become a member of our family. Of course he is unhappy.
Don't worry, I won't be angry with my uncle. He was just worried that you had entrusted the wrong person to the task. I guess he originally wanted to show me a warning, but you guys ruined it.
When you helped me block the wine just now, he saw that you were so determined, so I guess you won’t bother me in the future.
It's like a child throwing a tantrum over a piece of candy. I believe he'll be fine once he sobers up."
Guan Juer thought about it and felt that it made sense. Her father was an honest man at home. She usually only saw her mother showing off, but today she was singing a different tune. Could it be that he really couldn't bear to leave her behind?
Haha, Guan's father still respects Guan Juer's choice. In the plot, even if Guan Juer wants to find a pauper boyfriend Xie Tong, he did not express his opposition explicitly, but just hoped that Guan Juer would think it over carefully.
The reason why he was giving Zhou Chen a cold shoulder today was that he just wanted to get to know Zhou Chen better.
"Guan Guan, what do you think of this hotel? The environment looks nice, the online reviews are good, and it's not far from the community, only about a 20-minute walk away.
If you have no objection, let's choose this place and have Auntie notify the relatives to prepare as soon as possible."
Guan Juer reached out and grabbed Zhou Chen, saying softly, "Zhou Chen, isn't this a bit too expensive? This is a five-star hotel. Today is just a simple family gathering. Do we really need to make it so grand?"
You know, Taihu Hotel is quite famous in Wuxi. She didn't expect Zhou Chen to choose to eat here. It was just an ordinary dinner. She felt that Zhou Chen was making a fuss. A three-star hotel would be enough to accommodate him.
Zhou Chen reached out and rubbed Guan Juer's nose. He asked in a doting tone, "Why did Auntie ask us to come out and find a hotel? As the host, shouldn't you be more familiar with the environment here?"
Guan Juer frowned. She didn't expect Zhou Chen to ask this. Is there some trick in this? Does it matter who chooses the restaurant?
Haha, Zhou Chen chuckled twice and explained: "It seems that there is no difference, but in fact, there is still some tricks. This time I am treating your relatives to a meal, and the choice of restaurant represents your family's reputation.
To give a simple example, if your uncle and aunt choose a restaurant that is too cheap, your family will lose face.
The restaurant we chose is too expensive. If I were a petty man, do you think I would have any objections? Would people with bad tempers feel that they are being taken advantage of?
Haha, it would not be nice for the future son-in-law to make such a joke the first time he comes to visit, so the aunt gave us the task of choosing the hotel.
If the choice is good, both parties will be happy. If the choice is bad, my character can be seen through this incident. Then someone will say that Guan Guan found a rich second-generation man, right?
It's really embarrassing that the rich second generation chooses a place like this to treat you to a meal. This will not only bring shame to your family, but also to me.
Ahem, Guan Guan, I was just saying this as an analogy, I didn't say your family is such a snob. "
Guan Juer seemed to understand, but her face looked unhappy. Her relatives shouldn't be such people, right?
Guan Juer wanted to explain, she felt that Zhou Chen was overthinking it, but she was afraid that Zhou Chen would misunderstand her.
Zhou Chen didn't say much on this topic. Instead, he put his arm around Guan Juer's shoulders and concluded, "Guan Guan, your man is not short of money. If we are going to have a banquet, let's have the best banquet, the kind that no one can find fault with.
We'll book a table at the hotel soon, and then go to the mall to buy some gifts. Of course, I'm not trying to show off my wealth, but just want to show some appreciation for my elders."
Guan Juer frowned and thought about it, then nodded. Although she felt that her relatives were not such snobbish people, but the more courtesy, the less blame, right?
Next, the two went to the hotel together and booked a private room starting at 7 pm. They then went to the mall to buy some health products.
After returning home and telling Guan's mother what happened, Guan's mother smiled and said to Zhou Chen: "I trust you to do the job. I will call my grandparents to inform them now.
Xiao Zhou, you drank quite a bit at noon, so hurry up and go to Guan Guan's room and have a good sleep. Then, toast to Guan Guan's grandparents in the evening. They love Guan Guan the most."
Guan Juer took Zhou Chen to her room, and Guan's mother called relatives directly in the living room to inform them about dinner in the evening.
Guan Guan leaned against the door and eavesdropped for a while, and suddenly she was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, because her mother was praising Zhou Chen in the living room, and it seemed that she was very satisfied with Zhou Chen's arrangement.
Of course, this also means that Zhou Chen has caught them in the act. Mom is counting on Zhou Chen to save their face. How could the mother whom she used to respect so much become so snobbish?
Turning around, she saw Zhou Chen lying on the bed, smiling at her. Guan Juer explained a little embarrassedly, "Zhou Chen, my mother is not usually like this. Although she can be very strong and nagging sometimes, she has taught me not to be too snobbish since I was a child."
Guan Juer was interrupted by Zhou Chen before she could finish her explanation. Zhou Chen patted the bed next to him and motioned Guan Juer to lie down as well.
Zhou Chen then hugged Guan Juer and explained, "It's not necessarily true that Auntie is snobbish, but she is very realistic. There's a saying that goes, 'If you don't return to your hometown when you're rich, it's like walking in brocade clothes at night.'"
You found such a good boyfriend, of course she wants to show him off, which means she is very satisfied with me."
Guan Juer nodded when she heard this, as if it made sense. Then she realized that Zhou Chen had been bragging for a long time.
Just when Guan Juer was about to retort, Zhou Chen hugged her and said, "Don't move. Let's lie down together quietly for a while."
He drove to Guan Juer's house early in the morning and drank some wine at noon, so Zhou Chen fell asleep.
