Chapter 1426 - 923: Meeting the Parents
Chen Yunyun: "..."
Night falls.
Jiang Nian strolled to the gate of Beijing Institute of Technology, erasing the words "Institute of Technology" as if there was no difference from the current campus.
So, it’s just a change of place to review.
Before long, Chen Yunyun came out. She saw Jiang Nian holding a bag and couldn’t help but be slightly stunned for a moment.
"How long have you been waiting?"
"Just arrived." Jiang Nian lifted the bag and opened it up, revealing a bouquet of exquisite flowers. "Let’s go, time for dinner."
Chen Yunyun pursed her lips and accepted the flowers.
"Thank you."
"You’re welcome."
Soon, the young girl understood what those words meant. As soon as she got into the passenger seat, she was embraced in a deep kiss.
Jiang Nian was skilled, with not a single unnecessary move.
For instance, touching the chest.
It was, after all, on a busy street; if seen by others, it would be over. Chen Yunyun would surely get nervous, making the kiss a waste.
So, he chose to touch her leg.
When Chen Yunyun began to breathe slightly heavily, her eyes like spring water, Jiang Nian finally stopped, declaring the warm-up successful.
This is how you date.
Actually, he didn’t understand it before, but after enough experiences, he gradually mastered the skills in various areas.
Over time, everything fused together.
"You..."
Chen Yunyun pursed her lips, looked a bit guilty toward the window, "If we got caught on camera, it would be over."
Jiang Nian didn’t mind and started driving slowly.
"It’s been too long since we last met."
"Nonsense, we just saw each other a few days ago." Chen Yunyun rolled her eyes, but the corners of her mouth involuntarily lifted.
Outside the car window, the scenery slowly retreated.
Jiang Nian glanced at Chen Yunyun; compared to Wang Yuhe, her side profile might fall a bit short.
But with a face full of nervousness and an attitude of doing her best to cooperate.
Hmm.....
Quite a unique flavor.
...
After dinner, the two wandered around a bit. Jiang Nian held her hand, not in a rush to say anything.
Just a pure stroll, buying some snacks.
"Last time you guys went out..." Chen Yunyun glanced at him, "Did you also stroll the food street like this?"
"No, went to the arcade."
Jiang Nian was quite calm, thinking to himself how convenient it would be to have a car in Beijing; living here was no easy task. Damn, what kind of situation is this?
But it’s alright, it’s just for a few years.
Be it the present Chen Yunyun, or Zhang Ningzhi, Xu Qianqian, they won’t stay in Beijing.
After college graduation, the world is their oyster.
"We can visit a flower shop, see what kind of flowers you like, or a coffee shop to experience making coffee."
Teaching according to their aptitude.
Confucius had seventy-two students, and he could teach each according to their talents. Since I have a cheat, can’t I do the same?
It’s a bit tiring, but if you are not a fish, how do you know the joy of fish?
Sure enough, hearing about the flower shop and coffee shop, even Chen Yunyun’s calm face showed a hint of curiosity.
Regular small-town girls, after all, like these things. One is newness, another is genuine interest.
Grabbing dolls, doing crafts.
These things, for university girls, there’s plenty of time to complete with roommates over the weekend.
But flower shops and coffee shops are different.
She couldn’t say no.
Seeing the expression on her face, Jiang Nian knew it was a done deal. Easy match, taking the girl to the flower shop.
When it comes to choosing flowers, he lacked some experience.
But....accuracy.
To Chen Yunyun, this wasn’t surprising. After all, a person who can design clothes surely must have a good aesthetic sense.
Of course, Jiang Nian’s aesthetic sense wasn’t limited to this.
His choice in stockings was even more exceptional.
However, at this moment, he just behaved honestly. Accompanying Chen Yunyun in choosing flowers, it’s too late to have coffee too.
Finally, wrap it up with a dessert.
A date concludes with a kiss in the car. And by accident, Jiang Nian touched Chen Yunyun’s butt.
That’s all there was for now.
Chen Yunyun was obviously a bit concerned about Jiang Nian going out with Wang Yuhe. Such matters take time.
Over time, she’ll get used to it.
Back to Beijing Institute of Technology.
Chen Yunyun glanced at Jiang Nian and took the initiative to say, "Actually, you could invite Yuhe out next time too."
Hearing this, Jiang Nian thought it over and figured this shouldn’t be a trap.
"Hmm."
If it stopped here, it would only resolve issues, giving him legitimate ground to invite Wang Yuhe out next time.
But it wasn’t really meaningful.
He came this time not just to keep a young girl happy, but for another reason, to finalize a trip for three.
"However, I think going together would be better. How about we go to the water park after finals?"
"Company perk, family members join in."
Chen Yunyun: "???"
"Huh?"
"This isn’t my money; it’s the investors’ money." Jiang Nian shrugged, "It’d be a waste not to spend it, are you in?"
"After the finals?"
"Yes." Jiang Nian grinned, "Though the money belongs to investors, when to go is up to me."
Chen Yunyun also smiled, pursing her lips.
"Okay."
....
Zhen Nan.
It’s the weekend, Old Jiang rides an electric scooter, zigzagging through alleys, finally entering a main road.
Since Jiang Nian went to college, the elderly couple became quite relaxed.
Year-round, the house was quiet. No more banging of doors, no more shouting for mom everywhere.
Everything vanished.
Somewhat, they were a bit unused to it. Still remembered Jiang Nian’s appearance graduating from elementary school; now it seemed just like yesterday.
Honk!!!
The incessant honking on the street brought Old Jiang back from his thoughts as he turned into a new residential area.
Not luxurious, but certainly solid.
The guard at the entrance was young, greenery was being maintained. Occasionally, renovation sounds were heard, and kids ran around downstairs.
There were no big or small dogs, typical family homes.
Yeah, Old Jiang was very satisfied.
He took a turn upstairs, and the five-bedroom was astonishingly spacious. Confirming everything was normal, he locked the door again and left.
Once the house was furnished, they’d be able to move in within half a year.
"With such a big place, how many people are supposed to live here?" Old Jiang muttered to himself; the two of them only needed one room.
Jiang Nian has one room.
Hmm.....
He rode away, passing by Zhenan Middle School. Preparing to buy breakfast at the gate, when he heard a voice.
"Two cabbages."
"Teacher Zhong?"
"Huh?" Qingbao was stunned for a moment, instinctively turning around, wondering why she came downstairs to buy breakfast.
Meeting a student’s parent at this hour?
"And you are?"
"I’m Jiang Nian’s father." Old Jiang felt a bit embarrassed, recalling he hadn’t even attended a parent-teacher meeting.
But he had seen the teachers’ photos in the group chat.
After all, the Olympic competition Class Three was a rocket class, on par with Class Zero, frequently appearing in various reports.
For instance, under Teacher Liu’s guidance... Class Three performed such and such, followed by Teacher Zhong being diligent and responsible.
"Huh?" Qingbao was dumbfounded.
"Re-really?"
She searched her memory, drawing a blank. How come she didn’t remember Jiang Nian’s parents?
Did she forget?
"You....." Qingbao was a bit stunned.
Fortunately, Old Jiang was good at talking, greeted her, bought breakfast, and then rode away.
Qingbao stood still, realizing later.
Ah.....
It’s over.
She turned on her phone’s front camera, checked herself continuously. Naturally, she didn’t put on makeup to come downstairs, luckily she wasn’t wearing pajamas.
She only wore a red baseball cap, a white loose print shirt, and dark gray jeans.
Yeah, at least it seemed casual.
On the other side.
Jiang Nian was in Yuhang, negotiating with the store manager at the Banyu experience store. When he saw a new message pop up, he couldn’t help but take a look.
"Hmm?"
Qingbao ran into Old Jiang?
"Oh oh, isn’t this pretty normal?" he replied, "Teacher, it’s normal you don’t recognize them."
"My parents have never been to the school."
Qingbao: "...."
"(sweat) Really?"
"Yeah." Jiang Nian replied, looking down, the store manager stood beside him, somewhat anxious yet a bit nervous.
Increase the expenses again, fearing unemployment.
If nothing else, even breaking rocks with bare hands would be better. Otherwise, holding this bonus felt somewhat uneasy.
"Speaking of which, there’s something I need to trouble you with, Teacher." Jiang Nian naturally brought up another matter.
"What?" Qingbao replied.
Getting familiar follows the principle: One time unfamiliar, twice comfortable. Relationship is established just like that. Just like Jiang Nian with Old Liu, thoroughly familiar.
"For our specialized course, there’s a survey questionnaire....."
