Chapter 401: Chapter 401: Whoever is Pretty has the Say!

“My mom wants to meet you!”

After receiving this message from Qin Yue, Chen Cang’s mood became tumultuous. In just three seconds, he went from excitement, to nervousness, to total confusion.

Those three seconds seemed incredibly long for Chen Cang!

So long that he wondered whether to call her “Auntie” or to just cut to the chase and call her “Mom!”

So long that he considered whether he should exchange for a martial arts secret technique: “How to Have Fun with Your Mother-in-Law,” and then rapidly train to master level.

So long that he pondered whether his future son should be raised by his mother-in-law or by his own mother.

Exhausting…

After three seconds, Chen Cang still didn’t know what to reply with his phone in hand!

He could only respond with an emoji expressing his anxiety and fear.

Qin Yue had been laughing on the sofa for a good ten minutes.

She had already imagined all of Chen Cang’s mental processes.

The thought of Chen Cang’s dumbfounded face made Qin Yue want to laugh even more.

Ji Ruyun, seeing her daughter rolling with laughter on the sofa and looking nothing like a proper lady, couldn’t help but sigh. This crazy girl finally got someone to take her; I’ll have to comfort this poor boy properly. Forget buying a house, even throwing in a car would be fine!

But then she worried that if they got married and Yueyue reverted to her true self, will little Chen be scared off?

What if he returned the goods… How embarrassing that would be!

With this thought, Ji Ruyun quickly scolded softly, “Qin Yue, sit properly! You’re acting like a lunatic… Look at your hair, a bird’s nest looks better than that.”

Qin Yue remained imperturbable and whined, “Nooo, I don’t wanna!”

Ji Ruyun rolled her eyes and retorted, “Aren’t you afraid that if little Chen sees you like this, he won’t want you in the future?”

Qin Yue instantly froze, then scoffed after a moment’s thought, “He wouldn’t dare!”

But her voice clearly lacked the conviction it had earlier, even sounding a bit guilty. After hesitating for a moment, she suddenly looked worriedly at her phone and sent a message:

“At home, who has the final say?”

Chen Cang, currently searching on Baidu on how to have fun with his mother-in-law, was puzzled when he suddenly received this message.

What did this mean?

Could it be… his mother-in-law was the one holding the phone?

With this thought, Chen Cang quickly digested the spirit of the conference he had just attended, constantly integrating it, and in a flash, enlightenment dawned on him like divine inspiration.

“Whoever is pretty gets to call the shots!”

When Qin Yue received the message, she burst into giggles again. “Mom, come over here, I’ve got a message to show you.”

She pulled Ji Ruyun over to sit on the sofa and handed her the phone, “Mom, look!”

Ji Ruyun curiously took the phone and burst into laughter upon reading the message. This kid, does he have such a strong will to survive?

The mother and daughter laughed together.

At that moment, Qin Xiaoyuan poured a cup of freshly brewed tea and walked in to find the mother and daughter laughing joyously. Curious, he asked, “What’s the good news that’s making you laugh so happily?”

Ji Ruyun suddenly had an idea, “Old Qin, who has the final say at home?”

Qin Xiaoyuan didn’t even have to think before he blurted out, “Of course it’s… whoever is reasonable gets to call the shots!”

As soon as he said this, Qin Xiaoyuan suddenly felt the temperature around him drop several degrees, his back chilled and his scalp tingling, as if even the air had become motionless!

Immediately, Old Qin’s face changed. Years of clinical experience told him that at this moment, he needed to argue his case!

“However, most of the time, you are the reasonable one!”

Sure enough, with those words, the temperature rose once again, but… it was still slightly chilly compared to the start.

Seeing Ji Ruyun staring intently at him, Qin Xiaoyuan was bit confused. Was that not enough?

Qin Yue felt like her chest was going to explode from laughter!

Yet, with this situation, she couldn’t let it out and had to hold it in!

Trying to hold it in, she eventually couldn’t resist and burst out with peals of laughter.

Ji Ruyun also snorted coldly!

“Can’t even talk properly!”

Old Qin immediately grinned sheepishly, “Aren’t you satisfied yet!”

Ji Ruyun said to Qin Yue, “Yueyue, tell your dad what little Chen said to you!”

Qin Yue grinned, squinting her eyes, “Chen Cang said, ‘We listen to whoever is beautiful!'”

Ji Ruyun sighed in frustration as though she couldn’t toughen up a loved one, “Look at you. You should say, ‘We listen to whoever is right!’ Why does it sound so unpleasant when I hear it.”

Qin Xiaoyuan was also dumbfounded, couldn’t help but let out a snort of derision, this kid, slick and sycophantic, only knows how to kiss up!

At this moment, Qin Xiaoyuan still hadn’t given up his straightforward nature, chuckled, and said, “We’re an old couple anyway, why talk about such artificial niceties, right?”

“Besides, people get old, don’t they!”

The words no sooner left his lips than they caused an uproar!

All one could see was Ji Ruyun snorting coldly, “Alright then! Qin Xiaoyuan, I knew it, you despise me for getting old, don’t you?”

“I don’t despise you for being ugly, and you actually despise me for being old!”

At this point, Qin Yue hurriedly clutched Ji Ruyun’s arm, “Mom, don’t listen to Dad. Who would say you look like you’re fifty? Your skin is so good!”

While speaking, she gave Old Qin a meaningful glance, and Old Qin wasn’t dumb; he picked up the teapot and made straight for the study.

Ji Ruyun sighed, unable to hold back, “I am getting old, more and more wrinkles on my face, ah…”

In the midst of speaking, she picked up the small Mirror from the coffee table, frowned, touched the crow’s feet and wrinkles on her face, and couldn’t help but sigh.

Suddenly having an idea, Qin Yue said, “Mom, what’s to fear about wrinkles? I heard that nowadays they can do cosmetic procedures to remove them, minimally invasive, you basically can’t tell that any surgery was done. It’s just through adjustments to the fascia or whatever, and it can smooth out the wrinkles on the face, and the effects are particularly good, they say there are no side effects! Doesn’t damage the facial nerves at all.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruyun’s heart was immediately stirred!

“Really?”

Qin Yue immediately responded seriously, “Of course, it’s true. Would I lie to you?”

“One of these days I’ll take you to a cosmetic clinic to take a look, we’ll inquire about it, what do you think?”

At this moment, Ji Ruyun’s eyes were full of anticipation, a bit excited, she nodded, “Okay!”

Women will be women.

No matter the age, they’re still women.

Even if the years pass and beauty fades.

That daughterly heart, will never vanish.

…

…

At this moment, Chen Cang, upon not receiving a reply from Qin Yue for a long time, became uneasy, had he given the wrong answer?

Then, Qin Yue suddenly said, “Not bad, full marks, I am very satisfied with your earlier answer!”

Chen Cang immediately let out a sigh of relief.

But Qin Yue continued, “But… when I get old, I won’t look good… won’t be beautiful anymore.”

Chen Cang, “I’ll help you stay beautiful. Do you know why I’m studying cosmetic surgery? It’s to keep you looking beautiful forever!”

Upon hearing this, Qin Yue immediately became cheerful.

Such flattery, truly comfortable, feeling utterly content.

“You said it!”

Chen Cang nodded, “I said it!”

Qin Yue, feeling delightful, hugged her phone to her chest and suddenly felt like she was the happiest person in the world.
