Chapter 136 - 136: Show Your Stance
There are many beautiful women, but how many of them can reach the top in their field? An average-looking woman can easily seduce a bunch of men and get all kinds of good conditions without even trying. So why bother working hard?
Even if there are some who make it to the top of their industry, they must be of a certain age. Look at the powerful women in the shopping mall: even the youngest of them is in her early 30s. All things considered, Yu Minglang thinks that Zheng Xu will really be alone for a lifetime.
“It’s because Zheng Xu is so similar to me that I must cure him. If he can get better, I can find a way to save myself too. Yu Minglang, I’m telling you these things because I respect you. If you don’t live up to my expectations, you can cause a scene. If it gets too big, it should be time for us to call it quits.”
After listening to Xiao Qian’s words, Yu Minglang understood that if he continues to focus on this issue, Xiao Qian might break up with him.
“Luckily, I majored in psychology. Think about it, if I were an andrology specialist touching and probing patients all day, wouldn’t you go crazy?”
Yu Minglang immediately thought of the physical examination, where everyone has to undress and stand in a line while the lewd male doctor examines them one by one. Even now, he doesn’t want to think about that experience.
However, when he thought about what Xiao Qian said that she’s a female doctor…
His head shook like a rattle drum.
“You can only poke me, and forget about others. Mainly because once you’ve seen me, you won’t want to touch anyone else.”
“…Do you have any shame?”
Xiao Qian’s face flushed slightly, thinking about when they were together in their past lives. He did indeed have the right to be proud.
“In short, there’s no gender distinction in careers. My job is like this, and I’ll certainly have many male patients in the future. Yu Minglang, you better get used to it. You always ask me to stay vigilant, so you should be prepared too.”
“Doctor… sounds terrible.” What does it have to do with roast chicken?
“Don’t change the subject, make a statement.”
Yu Minglang knew he couldn’t avoid it, so he said insincerely, “As long as the kid doesn’t have any intentions towards you, I won’t bother him. I actually don’t worry about you running away with him. Where can you find such a good man without me? That kid Zheng Xu, he’s utterly unreliable when faced with a problem.”
“What problem? What are you talking about?” Xiao Qian caught the keyword.
“It was when we were in school. Once, the school warehouse caught—”
Before Yu Minglang finished speaking, the phone rang.
He made a pause gesture and pulled Xiao Qian onto his lap, forcing her to stay in that position. He hugged her in his arms and leaned his head comfortably on her shoulder.
Xiao Qian rolled her eyes, shameless! Even when answering the phone, he had to use her as a human pillow!
“Mom, yeah, I’m at home. Going back for dinner?” Yu Minglang glanced at Xiao Qian in his arms.
Xiao Qian tensed up, suddenly feeling a bad premonition. She shook her head desperately, signaling that she didn’t want to get involved.
“I don’t mind, but my girlfriend doesn’t want to see you guys because she thinks you all are not good-looking— Ow!” Yu Minglang finished and was pinched in the waist by Xiao Qian.
You shameless rascal! Can’t you behave?
Isn’t this setting her up? If he said this, what would his mother think of her?
“Put her on the phone? Alright, you talk to her.” Yu Minglang handed the phone to Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian gritted her teeth, made a beheading gesture to him, and Yu Minglang shrugged his shoulders with a particularly innocent expression. It wasn’t intentional… right!
“Hello Auntie, I’m Chen Xiaoqian.” Xiao Qian never expected to have a conversation with his mother so soon.
He was really shameless, and he didn’t ask for her consent before creating this situation. It was way too domineering.
Now that it’s come to this, whether she’s mentally prepared or not, she’ll just have to deal with it.
“Hello, Xiao Qian.”
Yu Minglang’s mother sounded authoritative, which was related to her being a vice president. However, she was also very friendly and enthusiastic, making it hard for Xiao Qian to refuse.
“Auntie, it doesn’t seem appropriate for me to go when your family is gathering. Another day, I’ll—”
“There’s no better day than today. Come over now and eat with us. After dinner, the youngest can take you home. Xiao Qian, I’ve been wanting to meet you for a while. Let’s just see each other. Don’t put any pressure on yourself, okay?”
Yu Minglang’s mother had accurate information and knew that Xiao Qian had returned home with Yu. She timed her call perfectly, and her son was indeed cooperating with her.
“…Okay, I will come then.”
Since his parents have spoken to this extent, it would be inappropriate for Xiao Qian to not give face.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qian was so angry that she didn’t let go of Yu Minglang’s waist and kept slapping his chest.
“Shameless! Who let you decide all by yourself?”
Their relationship hasn’t been confirmed yet, and they were already rushing to meet each other’s parents. This pace and order were too fast.
“It’s not my fault. Isn’t my mom too impatient?” Yu Minglang pushed all the responsibility onto his mother.
“Don’t pretend with me! You did it on purpose!” When Xiao Qian thought about meeting his family, she couldn’t stay calm.
In their past life, they had been together for so long, but he never mentioned meeting the parents. When he proposed to take her to meet his family, she ran away.
None of them were ordinary people. Thinking of meeting them so soon, Xiao Qian felt inexplicably irritated.
She was supposed to be in the countryside visiting her grandmother today, and her clothes were very casual. Wearing these to meet his parents, would it be considered rude? There’s also no gift prepared…
Boss Qian has never liked fighting unprepared battles. She felt unhappy about being in such a passive situation, and when she saw Yu Minglang smiling like it was a joke, she got even angrier and slapped him again.
“Yu Minglang, you big jerk! Didn’t we agree that the timing would be up to me? Can’t you keep your word? You’re such a smooth talker!”
He was really shameless back then, showing his face to her mother, and now he’s playing this card, forcing her to meet his family. If men’s words can be trusted, pigs would climb trees.
“It’s not like life is chasing after you. Aren’t we all together now? It’s not like I called my mom on purpose. She found out on her own… Don’t worry, my family is all easygoing. Going to my house is not a dangerous place. What are you afraid of?”
“Wait for me. Keep your guard up. I’ll settle this with you later. Get up quickly!”
“No need to hurry, dinner must still be being prepared. Let’s go later and eat when it’s ready. Come on, kiss me again—”
Yu Minglang’s mouth was on the pillow, and Xiao Qian smashed his face with it, saying scornfully.
“Take the car key and the wallet. Let’s go now!”
“What for?”
“To buy clothes! You idiot!” Xiao Qian didn’t want to wear her holey jeans to meet his family. He didn’t say what his father did, but she knew.
Wouldn’t wearing these clothes to meet them leave a negative first impression?
