Chapter 5: Good Heavens! My Son Brought a Girl Home!
Qi Yun walked with Lian Qingxue towards his residential area. His family was ordinary, with both parents working in state-owned factories. They lived in an old residential area provided by the factory. Many of the factory’s old employees lived around.
A lot of them recognized Qi Yun. As Lian Qingxue walked along, she felt something was off. Why were people staring at her? Muted conversations of the adults around reached her ears.
“Isn’t that the kid from the Qi family? Who’s the girl?”
“Yes, it’s him, Qi Yun. He brought her home. Who else could it be?”
“Qi Yun has a girlfriend now! Let’s go and tell his mom!”
Not long after, Qi Yun’s mother received a shocking news.
“Good heavens! My son brought a girlfriend home!”
“What do I do? I’m not prepared for this!” Qi’s mom was very nervous.
Qi’s dad, however, was sitting on the sofa, looking very calm. “What’s there to worry about? It’s normal for boys his age to have a girlfriend.”
“But it’s not normal! He’s in his final year of high school!”
Qi’s mom was not against her son having a girlfriend, but the timing was critical. She was anxious.
“It’s fine. I also had a girlfriend when I was in high school. Nothing major will happen.” Qi’s dad replied without lifting his head.
Suddenly, he felt a change in the atmosphere. Lifting his head, he saw Qi’s mom smiling at him. “You had such an interesting story from high school that I didn’t know about?”
“I don’t have time to deal with you now! I need to change my clothes!”
As Qi Yun entered his home and opened the door, he saw his mom sitting on the sofa, her gaze like a spotlight, instantly directed towards Lian Qingxue.
At first glance, Qi’s mom was not pleased. The girl’s clothes were old and tattered, indicating a poor family background. She seemed shy and timid. But she didn’t show any disapproval.
“Qi Yun, is this your classmate?”
“Yes, she’s the tutor I’ve invited home.”
“Tutor?”
Qi’s mom was a bit confused.
Qi’s dad lifted his head, looking deeply at his son. This kid knows how to play!
“If you wanted to hire a tutor, why didn’t you tell us? We could have helped you find one!”
Qi’s mom was supportive of her son’s ambition.
“I’ve already found one, haven’t I?”
Qi’s parents were still skeptical, after all, hiring a female classmate as a tutor seemed suspicious.
As Qi Yun spoke to his mom, Lian Qingxue tugged at his clothes from behind.
“I’ve memorized the way to your house. I’ll go home first!” She was very sensitive to gazes and could tell that Qi Yun’s mom didn’t really like her, so she couldn’t help but want to run.
“Why are you leaving? Since you’re my tutor now, I should at least treat you to dinner!”
Qi Yun held onto Lian Qingxue and brought her to the dining table.
At the table, Qi’s mom took the opportunity to learn more about Lian Qingxue.
“Child, what do your parents do?”
Lian Qingxue was quietly eating her rice, not touching the dishes. Upon hearing the question, she paused.
“I don’t have parents.”
Qi’s mom was taken aback. “Then you…”
“I grew up in an orphanage.”
When Qi’s mom saw Lian Qingxue’s old school uniform, her heart ached a little.
That’s when Qi Yun spoke up, “Lian Qingxue is one of the top students in our class! Why else would I have invited her over?”
Upon hearing this, any vague dissatisfaction Qi’s mom felt towards Lian Qingxue immediately melted away.
“This child! Even without any family, she’s still so driven!”
Seeing that Lian Qingxue was only eating rice and not the dishes, she felt even more sympathy. “Consider this your home when you’re here. Come, have a drumstick!”
Qi Yun watched helplessly as his mom transferred the drumstick from his plate to Lian Qingxue’s.
“???”
Something seemed off.
As his mom continued to serve Lian Qingxue dishes until her bowl was full, Qi Yun felt a bit puzzled.
He didn’t receive this kind of treatment, did he?
Seeing Qi Yun’s expression, Qi’s dad sighed softly.
“Do you remember the photos of you in a dress when you were little?”
“Yes, they are my dark history.”
“When you weren’t born, your mom was hoping for a daughter and bought many dresses, but then…”
Then I came?
Should I apologize?
Looking at Qi’s mom treating Lian Qingxue more and more intimately, with an increasingly sympathetic look, Qi Yun felt that if this was a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, it seemed to be going incredibly well.
That might not be so bad, right?
No, my relationship with Lian Qingxue is purely financial!
Love should not defile it!
Upon hearing their conversation, Qi’s mom immediately interjected, “Exactly! Even if you don’t date this brat, you should come by often! Consider me your mother! I’ve always wanted a daughter!”
Qi Yun quickly clarified, “Mom, we’re really not dating!”
“Sure!” Qi’s mom and dad responded in unison.
