Before breakfast was even finished, Jiang Jingze had already knocked on the door.
Clearly, his eagerness to bring his girlfriend home was undeniable.
"Has Xiaojiang eaten yet? Join us for breakfast, it's nothing fancy, just some millet porridge and pickles."
Zhang Ying invited the future son-in-law inside, causing Jiang Jingze to look slightly embarrassed.
"I've eaten, my mother asked me to pick up Qingqing early in the morning, so I came a bit early."
Zhang Ying's smile grew brighter, illustrating the future mother-in-law's attitude towards her daughter.
No longer was it necessary for the Yue Family to worry about gaining acceptance from the in-laws as in the past.
According to Zhang Ying, who had already embraced the mindset of a modern woman, even if not liked, no need to enter this family.
Fortunately, both sides were pleased with this marriage proposal.
Due to Jiang Jingze, Yue Qingqing quickened her eating pace.
Yue Jiandong watched her, "Eat slowly, don't choke."
After sending their daughter out the door, Zhang Ying advised them.
"Drive carefully, the roads freeze over in winter, go slow."
She knew Jiang Jingze personally drove to pick up his girlfriend, never delegating to the driver.
He had to ensure she reached her destination safely.
Jiang Jingze agreed to everything, taking all kinds of gifts prepared by the Yue Family for their daughter.
Once in the car, Jiang Jingze leaned over to fasten his girlfriend's seatbelt.
Only now he wasn't as well behaved, stealing a kiss under the guise of securing the seatbelt.
Yue Qingqing boldly lifted her face, their eyes meeting with affection.
On the balcony, Yue Jiandong gritted his teeth.
"Look at these youngsters, so lovey-dovey now. Back in the day, we felt embarrassed even holding hands in the village with gossiping women lurking."
Zhang Ying pulled him away, preventing her husband from watching their future son-in-law and feeling more resentment.
"You know it was our time back then, right? Times have changed, when people are genuinely dating, why be secretive? It's not illegal."
Yue Jiandong mulled over the justification, finding it quite reasonable.
But after all, it was his daughter being taken advantage of.
His wife retorted, saying what's advantageous about it, suggesting he view his daughter as the tyrant bullying the good-natured Jiang Jingze.
Thinking along those lines, Yue Jiandong felt a bit better…
Anyway, considering looks, that young lad is quite handsome, so let's indulge in a bit of self-deceit.
Yue Qingqing was blissfully unaware of the mental shock that scene had caused her father.
All the way to the Jiang Family's door, her palms were sweaty from holding the gifts.
Although they'd met several times before, she still felt a bit tense.
Right as the door opened, Yue Qingqing was pulled into a hug.
Fu Ting gazed at her future daughter-in-law with a face full of concern.
"Our Qingqing has suffered a lot."
Yue Qingqing was puzzled, still holding her things.
If you asked whether she was moved.
Not daring to move — not daring to move —
Finally, Jiang Jingze reached over and took her things from below, placing them inside the door.
Jiang Chengren chuckled, explaining, "Your aunt meant the incident where someone used your background online to stir up trouble, she was so anxious she couldn't sleep, even arguing vehemently with many people online."
Yue Qingqing heard Jiang Jingze mention before that Fu Ting had been spoiled at home from young and, subsequently, by her husband.
Her life was practically soaked in sweetness with only minor setbacks like Jiang Jingze's string of bad luck as a child.
But ever since he met Yue Qingqing, those troubles naturally vanished.
Thus, having never faced hardship, Fu Ting wholly embraced the mindset of the youth, loving fresh experiences, becoming an internet-obsessed woman.
Yue Qingqing felt moved, "It's nothing, it was clarified afterward."
Fu Ting held onto her for a while longer before letting go, turning unceremoniously towards her son.
"And you just watched our Qingqing getting bullied? Why didn't you drag those people out for a beating."
Yue Qingqing: "..."
No way, that would probably end up with her and Comrade Xiaojiang separated by a barred window.
