âIf we come out in the future and anything inconvenient happened because of me, I wonât feel sorry anymore,â Yan Zhiqing said.
Wei Wucai smiled and nodded as he said. âYou never needed to feel that way.â
âIn the future, if you think the inconvenience is annoying, I will scold you,â Yan Zhiqing glared and said.
âJust scold me.â Wei Wucai said, âIf I really did think that way, then Iâm a jerk. But I know myself well, so I definitely wouldnât do that.â
Yan Zhiqing nodded.
She had long been worried about this. But after talking it through, Yan Zhiqing quickly forgot about it.
It was really still in her nature to be carefree.
When food was served, Yan Zhiqing tried a few bites and whispered to Wei Wucai, âNo wonder there werenât any customers during lunch rush hours. It doesnât taste good.â
Wei Wucai nodded and said, âJust bear with it. When we go back to the family home, we will eat good food. The chef in my family home cooks really well.â
Yan Zhiqing nodded. She barely ate. She just took a few bites before leaving with Wei Wucai.
The two went straight to the family home of the Wei Family.
Because Wei Wucaiâs actual grandparents had already passed away, Wei Wucaiâs family had become very close to the relatives living in the family home.
Therefore, Wei Wucai started calling the two elders of the Wei Family like they were his grandparents.
Ever since his grandparents passed away, the two elders at the family home became the only two elders left.
As such, the two families had become even closer.
Wei Wucai viewed the elders of the Wei Family as his actual grandparents.
His parents were very close to his grandparents as well.
It was like being a son and son-in-law to the elders.
The two came to the family home. Wei Wucai saw that Wei Hezhangâs car was already parked in the courtyard.
While he was getting out of the car, Wei Wucai said to Yan Zhiqing, âMy parents have already arrived.â
Yan Zhiqing immediately felt nervous. âAre we too late? We even made the elders wait for us.â
âWe did say we would come in the afternoon, and we rushed over here after lunch. Itâs not late at all.â Wei Wucai held her hand and said, âMy parents were just in a rush to see their future daughter-in-law.â
âWhat nonsense are you saying?!â Yan Zhiqing smacked him with a force that was neither too hard nor too gentle.
Wei Wucai stared at her with a smile. âI thought you agreed yesterday?â
Yan Zhiqing said stubbornly, âYesterday, I said I wouldnât mind getting married early as it wonât affect my career. But I didnât actually agree to marry you.â
âAlright. Alright.â Wei Wucai smiled and said, âThen I guess I have to continue working hard.â
The two arrived at the door of the house through the courtyard. Wei Wucai rang the doorbell.
Soon, the door opened.
Wei Wucai led Yan Zhiqing inside.
Yan Zhiqing had never been to the Wei Familyâs house.
The eight great families were in good relations with each other.
The people who normally interact with each other are the elder brothers.
Before she was eighteen, she wasnât living in B City.
She only started living here permanently after that incident.
However, she was already old enough that she couldnât just go to someone elseâs house.
People might then mistakenly think that she was into someone from the Wei Family and was trying to please the elders of the Wei Family.
In addition, she had become very busy with work and school and didnât have the time to do such a thing.
As a result, it was her first time here.
Yan Zhiqing was so nervous that her palms felt clammy.
Wei Wucai smiled and glanced at her before letting go of her hand. He then grabbed her wrist and rubbed her sweaty palms on his body, wiping the sweat on his shirt.
Yan Zhiqing was a little embarrassed.
She felt as though she no longer exuded the glow of a female star.
She no longer had a reputation in front of Wei Wucai.
The two walked past the courtyard and saw Wei Hezhang and Dong Muping waiting by the door.
Yan Zhiqing felt so pampered. At the same time, she felt really stressed.
This⦠Wei Wucaiâs parents were even waiting at the door.
They were pampering them!
Yan Zhiqing quickly sped up and went to the door with Wei Wucai.
Wei Wucai then greeted, âDad. Mom.â
Yan Zhiqing quickly greeted them as well. âUncle. Auntie.â
âWhy⦠why are you two waiting at the door?â Yan Zhiqing was a little flustered.
âItâs because this auntie of yours was in a rush to see you. When she saw that you guys were here, she rushed here.â Wei Hezhang laughed as he answered.
He then turned and said to Dong Muping, âI told you this would stress the kid out.â
âWe came late,â said Yan Zhiqing, feeling really embarrassed.
âOh no!â Wei Hezhang said, âDidnât you guys say you would arrive in the afternoon? She was just impatient and dragged me here in the morning. Even if you came early, you canât possibly be earlier than her.â
âIf you said you would come before noon, she would still get here in the morning. If you said that you were coming in the morning, she would get here before dawn,â Wei Hezhang said.
Hearing this, Yan Zhiqing couldnât help but laugh. She was finally more relaxed.
Dong Muping smiled and explained, âDonât be embarrassed. We simply came too early.â
âAnd look at me being silly! I actually made you two stand outside the door. Please come in!â Dong Muping hastily dragged Wei Hezhang further into the house, giving space for Wei Wucai and Yan Zhiqing to walk inside.
Wei Wucai then led Yan Zhiqing into the house.
Upon entering, they saw the grandparents of the Wei Family waiting in the corridor to welcome them personally.
âGrandpa, Grandma.â Yan Zhiqing quickly greeted.
âZhiqing!â Old Mrs. Wei was smiling so much that her eyes became two curved lines. âI didnât expect that your first visit here is as Xiao Caiâs girlfriend. This is fate. I canât even say anything else.â
âGrandpa, Grandma, Uncle, Auntie.â Yan Zhiqing greeted and pulled Wei Wucai.
Because they bought a lot of gifts, Wei Wucai was carrying some with him as well.
The two handed over their gifts together at the same time.
âIt is my first time here. I chose some gifts with Xiao Cai. I hope youâll like it,â said Yan Zhiqing.
âOh kid, your presence here is already the best thing ever for us. Even if you arenât dating Xiao Cai, our family and your family share a bond so deep that it basically makes you my granddaughter. Granddaughters donât need to visit with gifts!â Old Mrs. Wei said.
âBut now that you are here as my granddaughter-in-law, itâs naturally even better than being my granddaughter!â Old Mrs. Wei said.
Yan Zhiqing was speechless.
This⦠This was her first-time visit, but she had already become a granddaughter-in-law?
âPlease sit.â Old Mrs. Wei led the two to the living room.
The four then opened their gifts.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
When they saw the gifts, they knew that Yan Zhiqing had really put in the effort to choose these gifts.
As a result, they were very happy.
The fact that they received gifts from their granddaughter-in-law or daughter-in-law made them even happier.
In comparison to the gifts, this fact made them even happier.
Old Mrs. Wei and Dong Muping openly expressed their thoughts about it.
And Yan Zhiqing felt as though she was going to be brainwashed.
She became more and more used to their words as she listened.
Gradually, she felt as though it was no longer that surprising to be referred to as a granddaughter-in-law or daughter-in-law.
