"Mom, why did you come here suddenly?" Su Yan stretched his right hand behind him and squeezed Cheng Kou soothingly.
Shen Wenzhou took a few steps forward, trying to see the girl hiding behind her youngest son. Su Yan took a step forward and covered Cheng Kou tightly.
Seeing him like this, Shen Wenzhou raised his eyebrows silently, meaning that this girl was shameful
Su Yan smiled and shook his head. He raised his left index finger in front of his lips. What he wanted to say was clearly expressed in his eyes - Mom, don't scare her.
Seeing that his mother had compromised temporarily, he turned around, patted Cheng Kou, and whispered something in her ear.
Shen Wenzhou withdrew her gaze from the little girl who ran back to the bedroom, but still did not see her face. She glared at Su Yan with dissatisfaction, then turned and walked towards the sofa in the living room.
Su Yan prepared the tea that his mother usually liked to drink in the kitchen, then sat down next to her with the tea tray.
Shen Wenzhou took a sip and found the tea sweet and delicious, but the good tea did not help relieve her depressed mood.
"If your second aunt hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known you already had a girlfriend."
"Mom." Su Yan smiled apologetically, "Don't you know now?"
In fact, he had no intention of hiding it. If it weren't for the obstacle of Cheng Kou's parents, he would definitely have taken her home to meet his parents this weekend.
"You are the one with the best ideas." Shen Wenzhou didn't want to argue with him. She frowned slightly and asked, "Did she stay here last night?"
Su Yan nodded, then shook his head: "It's not what you think."
"What's that?"
"Anyway, it was just an unexpected situation last night." Su Yan knew that it was impossible to let her go back now. He looked at his mother, "Mom, she is shy, don't scare her later."
"Do you think I'm a cannibal?" Shen Wenzhou asked back rudely.
"mom."
Su Yan got up and went to the bedroom, closing the door behind him. Cheng Kou had already changed her clothes and was lying on the bed like an ostrich, with her face buried in the quilt.
Su Yan found it funny and leaned over to pick the person up and hold him in his arms.
Pushing aside her messy bangs, Su Yan looked at her carefully for a while, with a smile in his eyes.
Cheng Kou pursed her lips and looked like she was about to cry.
Su Yan stopped teasing her and reached out to touch her clothes. They were the ones he had thrown into the washing machine yesterday. After she went to bed, he went to the bathroom to wash and hang them up, but they were not completely dry in such a short time that they felt damp to the touch.
You can't be too particular at this time. It's better than meeting your parents in your pajamas.
Seeing that Cheng Kou didn't say anything, Su Yan raised his hand and touched her blushing cheek: "Go out, it's not good to make my mother wait too long."
Cheng Kou nodded obediently. In Su Yan's eyes, she looked especially like Beng Beng playing in the guest room.
When Su Yan was holding Cheng Kou's hand and preparing to open the door, he was pinched by the person behind him. He listened to the footsteps and uttered a single syllable.
"Um?"
"Will your mother dislike me?" After all, she showed up at his house so early in the morning, in disheveled clothes, which would definitely leave a bad impression on his mother.
Su Yan chuckled and answered quickly: "No."
He knew what Cheng Kou was worried about. Her parents had already disapproved. If her family objected again, it would be even more difficult for this relationship to succeed.
"No." He held her hand tightly and repeated it again.
Perhaps his words gave her strength. Cheng Kou was no longer as panic-stricken as before. Instead, she became much calmer and followed Su Yan out obediently.
Shen Wenzhou's eyes lit up the first time he saw Cheng Kou. Su Yan knew that his mother liked such quiet girls. He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and pushed Cheng Kou to the front.
"Mom, this is Koubao."
After all, Cheng Kou was still nervous. She twisted her fingers around the seam of her trousers and tried to smile as naturally as possible at the well-maintained lady in front of her.
"Hello, Auntie."
"Koubao, huh? Come, come and sit over here."
Su Yan asked Cheng Kou to sit over there, and he sat on the single sofa.
Shen Wenzhou looked at Cheng Kou with a smile on her face and did not ask those boring questions. This was the girl her son liked and her daughter-in-law. She had no reason not to like her.
Su Yan had already expected her attitude. She was the one who gave birth to him after ten months of pregnancy. Mother and son are connected by heart, and they know each other's thoughts clearly.
He was grateful for his mother's love for him and for Cheng Kou. He believed that parents all over the world were the same, so he did not blame Cheng Kou's mother. No matter what she thought, she was just loving her daughter. Her original intention must be to make Cheng Kou happy.
He will clarify some misunderstandings and eliminate some uneasiness.
As for the rest, time will tell.
In the morning, the sky was slightly bright, and there were almost no people on the clean streets by the lake. It had been raining last night, and the air after the rain was slightly cool, fresh and pleasant. With every breath, it seemed as if my lungs were purified.
The man in black sportswear was jogging at a steady pace, his eyes fixed on the front, his breathing even, and he didn't seem to be burdened at all.
He stopped in front of an exit, but instead of going out, he stood at the door.
Soon, he saw a pink figure with a smile on his face.
Cheng Kou ran towards her at an accelerated speed, shouting at the top of his voice: "Su Yan, you're going too far! How could you leave me alone and run away!"
Su Yan smiled even more happily: "You are the one who runs slowly."
Her cheeks were a soft pink, and it was unclear whether it was from running or from being angry.
Su Yan smiled, his eyes bright as stars. He said nothing and naturally extended his hand.
Cheng Kou took his hand and followed him home, where they each took a shower and changed into clean clothes.
Their destination was the mall. Shen Wenzhou was very satisfied with Cheng Kou the last time they met, and she emphasized to Su Yan several times that she should bring Cheng Kou home on weekends. Since it was a formal meeting with the parents, of course she had to bring gifts.
There were only a few kinds of gifts for elders, and Cheng Kou quickly chose them with Su Yan's advice.
Cheng Kou insisted on paying the bill, and Su Yan did not stop him. He had plenty of ways to make up the money anyway.
When passing by a children's clothing store, Cheng Kou stopped and bent down to look at the clothes on the shelves. Later, he felt so uncomfortable that he simply squatted down.
"Little Cuttlefish will go too?" Cheng Kou squatted there, raised his head and asked him.
After getting Su Yan's affirmative answer, Cheng Kou pointed to a white T-shirt and asked, "How about this one with a small fishhook?"
Su Yan held the bags in both hands, bent over to take a look, and smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up: "What little fish hook... It's an anchor."
"They are all the same..." Cheng Kou muttered and decided to buy this one.
When picking up the car in the parking lot, Su Yan first opened the back door and put everything in his hands on the seat. After his hands were free, he stopped Cheng Kou who was about to go to the passenger side.
"Why are you blocking my way?" Cheng Kou said this and reached out to help him straighten his collar.
Su Yan grabbed her hand and asked, "Everyone in our family has a gift, what about mine?"
He and she were less than half a meter apart. In the dim underground parking lot, Cheng Kou could clearly see the tiny light in his eyes. She looked around and found that there was no one nearby. She stood on tiptoe and pecked him on the lips quickly. Then, before he deepened the kiss, she quickly backed away and went around to the other side of the car.
The gift for you is a kiss.
Cheng Kou was still laughing when she opened the car door, but she couldn't laugh anymore after getting in the car. Su Yan leaned over to help her fasten her seat belt, and then he held her down and tortured her.
Of course, gifts and such should be enjoyed to the fullest.
Going home, meeting parents, or being stopped were all forgotten by both of them. The only real person in front of them was the person in front of them.
The desire to be intimate with the other person, the desire to become one with the other person, are all conveyed through the connection of kissing.
Cheng Kou thought that they were both very sure that each other was the one who would spend their lives together.
