Chapter 4071: His Car Is Quite Ordinary
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Lin Yi was a bit dumbfounded.He never imagined he’d run into Yue Sijing’s parents in a place like this.
This was just begging for a misunderstanding.
"Your cousin’s getting married tomorrow, I’m here to buy your dad a pair of pants."
As she spoke, Yue Sijing’s mother kept sizing up Yue Sijing and Lin Yi, then glanced at the shopping bag in her hand.
"I’ve asked you so many times before, and you kept saying you didn’t have a boyfriend. Now I’ve caught you, haven’t I?"
"Mom, he’s my boss, the producer of our show. Don’t talk nonsense." Yue Sijing was so embarrassed she wanted to crawl into a hole.
"Your boss is young and promising. What’s wrong with dating the boss?"
Looking at Lin Yi, Yue Sijing’s parents were grinning from ear to ear.
Good-looking, tall enough, and most importantly, he was their daughter’s boss, young and capable. The two of them standing together looked ridiculously well matched.
Then look at the stuff they bought—what else could their relationship be besides boyfriend and girlfriend?
Absolutely impossible!
"Young man, what’s your name?" Yue Sijing’s mother asked, beaming.
"Lin Yi." Lin Yi answered with a smile.
"Tomorrow is her cousin’s wedding, you two come together."
"Huh? This..."
Lin Yi hesitated for a second. "Will that be okay?"
"What’s not okay? You’ll be family from now on. You have to come tomorrow."
As she spoke, Yue Sijing’s mother turned to look at her daughter.
"I’m telling you, you have to bring your boyfriend tomorrow. If you don’t, just wait and see how I deal with you when you get home!"
"This..."
"Alright, alright, stop hemming and hawing. Your dad and I are going to buy a few more things."
The two old folks were pretty tactful—they didn’t want to get in the way of the couple’s date, so they tossed out a few words and left.
But they hadn’t gone far before they stopped again.
"Are you coming home tonight?"
"Ah?"
They were all adults; of course Yue Sijing understood what she meant.
"Of, of course I’m coming home."
"Coming home is fine. You still have things to do tomorrow." Yue Sijing’s mother said:
"I’m telling you, you have to bring your boyfriend tomorrow."
"O-okay, I got it..."
The old couple left, perfectly satisfied, leaving Yue Sijing drowning in awkwardness.
"Lin Bro, sorry, my mom’s just like that."
"It’s fine."
Lin Yi glanced at his watch with a smile. "It’s about to start. Let’s go now."
"Mm."
The two walked toward the movie theater. With her head half lowered, Yue Sijing stared at the things in her hand.
Her mom had seen all this stuff; she was definitely misunderstanding something.
This was way too embarrassing. How was she supposed to show her face now!
Soon, they arrived at the cinema. Lin Yi bought popcorn and cola, exchanged their tickets, and they went into the screening room together.
The theater wasn’t very full, only about half the seats were taken.
They sat side by side, waiting for the movie to start.
Bzzz bzzz bzzz——
Bzzz bzzz bzzz——
Bzzz bzzz bzzz——
Yue Sijing’s phone kept buzzing nonstop, and she kept her head down replying to messages.
"Lin Bro, um..."
Yue Sijing hesitated, wanting to say something.
"Auntie’s messaging you?"
Yue Sijing nodded. "She keeps saying you have to come to the wedding tomorrow."
"It’s not a big deal. If you need me to go, I’ll go. Just treat it as humoring the parents."
"Then..."
Testing the waters, Yue Sijing said:
"If you’re free tomorrow, come with me."
"Sure. What time?"
"We probably need to be early. Just get to my place around seven. Does that work? If you can’t get up, later is fine too."
"No problem. Just wait for me at home."
"Mm mm, thank you, Lin Bro."
"Nothing to thank me for. Just get your buyer’s show ready."
"You’re awful."
Very soon, the movie started, and the two stopped chatting, quietly watching the screen.
After eleven at night, they finished the movie and walked out of the cinema. Lin Yi drove and took Yue Sijing home.
"Come on, I’ll walk you in. It’s pretty dark in there." Lin Yi said, looking at the not-so-bright apartment complex.
"No need, Lin Bro. Our place is that building right by the street." Yue Sijing pointed at the convenience store by the gate. "There’s a back door in the shop. Once I go through, it’s right at our unit door."
"Alright then. I’ll pick you up tomorrow."
"Mm mm, thanks, Lin Bro."
She opened the car door, grabbed her things, and headed off, while Lin Yi turned the car around and drove away.
At that moment, in Yue Sijing’s home, three people were standing by the window.
Two of them were her parents, and the other was her aunt.
"Look, look, I told you he’d bring her back." Yue Sijing’s father said.
When the old couple had just gotten home, her father had already said their girl would definitely be sent back.
"They’re boyfriend and girlfriend. Isn’t it normal for him to see her home?" Yue Sijing’s mother said:
"This young man’s really good. He’s even her boss. If those two get married, I won’t have to worry about her anymore."
"But that young man’s car looks a bit old, kind of like the Jetta my brother-in-law drove more than ten years ago," said Yue Sijing’s aunt.
"This..."
The old couple’s attention had been all on Lin Yi and Yue Sijing, so they hadn’t looked at his car.
Judging by the appearance, the car was indeed a bit old.
"That’s nothing. A car’s just a consumable. They’ve only just started dating; he can switch to a better one later." Yue Sijing’s mother said:
"Worst case, we can buy him one ourselves."
"Sis, that’s not how things work."
"I feel like this guy’s family conditions might be average. He’s not good enough for Jingjing," Yue Sijing’s aunt said:
"And he’s only Jingjing’s boss. I bet his salary isn’t that high. Buying a place in Zhong Hai probably isn’t realistic. You two really need to think this through."
"This..."
The old couple were momentarily at a loss for words. They hadn’t really thought about that side of things before, but when they thought it over, they still felt it wasn’t a big deal.
"As long as he’s ambitious and capable, all that will come in time. Don’t judge him by the present."
"That’s true in theory, but you still need to be careful." Yue Sijing’s aunt said:
"Look at my daughter’s boyfriend. When they were dating, he bought her a watch worth over 40,000 yuan, and he’s from her company too. So you really need someone with decent family conditions. Ability is invisible and intangible; it doesn’t count for much."
"Actually, I think..."
Click——
Halfway through her sentence, the door opened, and Yue Sijing walked in from outside.
"Auntie, you’re here."
Seeing her aunt, Yue Sijing didn’t look particularly enthusiastic.
This person was fine in other ways, but she loved to show off. Yue Sijing couldn’t stand that type, but since she was family, she could only bite the bullet and greet her.
"Jingjing, we just saw you. Your boyfriend brought you back, didn’t he?" Yue Sijing’s aunt said with a big smile.
