They found Building 3, where Du Xinxin’s family lived.
Just then, someone was coming out of the building’s entrance.
Qi Sheng took the opportunity to lead Gu Feng inside.
Arriving at the door of apartment 1201, Qi Sheng knocked.
Inside the apartment, the atmosphere was incredibly tense.
Du Xinxin’s phone had been confiscated, and she was being glared at by a fuming Du Zhaoye, who held a leather belt in his hand.
The young woman, not to be outdone, glared right back at her old man.
It was enough to nearly give Du Zhaoye a heart attack from anger.
Normally, the playful Du Xinxin was quite obedient.
But today, it was as if she’d grown a rebellious streak, daring to have her boyfriend show up at their door.
Du Zhaoye, who was usually very friendly, had forced himself to adopt a ferocious expression.
He just hoped his daughter would see the error of her ways and turn back.
College romances end at graduation.
Du Zhaoye usually treated Du Xinxin so preciously it was like he was afraid of dropping her.
How could he bear to let his precious daughter experience the kind of pain that makes you lose your appetite for food and drink?
But Du Xinxin wasn’t a pushover. She even dropped the bombshell that she had already slept with her boyfriend.
She adopted a stance of brazen defiance.
Whether Du Zhaoye acknowledged this son-in-law or not, it was already a done deal.
At the sound of the knock, the expressions of the family, previously trapped in a heavy atmosphere, changed in an instant.
Du Xinxin’s annoyance turned to joyful surprise; she wished she could fly over and open the door for him.
A death glare from Du Zhaoye instantly pinned Du Xinxin to the sofa.
"You get the door."
Du Zhaoye said to his wife, suppressing his fury.
"Sigh... who is it?"
Seeing her normally good-tempered husband like this, Xu Rong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as she went to open the door.
"Hello, Auntie. My name is Qi Sheng. I’m Xinxin’s boyfriend."
Qi Sheng smiled at the middle-aged woman before him and introduced himself.
"Ah... hello, hello! Please, come in."
When Xu Rong saw how handsome and young Qi Sheng was, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Du Xinxin’s return this time had brought the old couple too much shock and terror.
A million-yuan Van Cleef & Arpels watch.
LV and Chanel bags and clothes practically stuffed her suitcase.
Her phone was also a top-of-the-line Huawei, costing over ten thousand yuan.
What terrified them the most was that Du Xinxin’s bank account balance was a full one million yuan.
As public officials living in Xi’an in a home that cost over thirty thousand yuan per square meter, their financial situation was considered quite good.
But their daughter’s current attire and savings were far beyond what they could ever provide.
One can imagine just how terrified the old couple was.
They were afraid that Du Xinxin had gone down the wrong path and was being kept by some middle-aged man.
If that were the case, how could they face their friends and family?
Fortunately, that girl Du Xinxin still had some sense.
Seeing Xu Rong smile at him, Qi Sheng immediately felt much more relaxed.
’I’ve passed the test with my future mother-in-law. Now all that’s left is my future father-in-law.’
"Sweetheart~"
Seeing that Qi Sheng had really come, Du Xinxin was so moved that her eyes filled with tears.
She wanted nothing more than to throw herself into Qi Sheng’s arms and let her sweetheart cuddle her fiercely.
"Sit down!"
Du Zhaoye shot Du Xinxin a glare, though he secretly breathed a sigh of relief himself.
’At least things haven’t reached the worst-case scenario.’
"Hmph!"
Du Xinxin rolled her eyes at Du Zhaoye in displeasure.
’Starting today, this "little padded jacket" of his was going to start letting in a draft!’
"Auntie will just call you Ah Sheng, okay? What kind of work do you do now?"
Xu Rong invited Qi Sheng to the sofa and sat him down next to Du Xinxin.
She pulled up a stool and sat with Du Zhaoye.
If an ordinary guy were to visit and see a scene like this, he would definitely be panicking.
Qi Sheng, however, was perfectly composed, answering Xu Rong with an unhurried smile.
"After graduating from university, I’ve been starting my own business. I’m just running a small operation at the moment."
"A small operation?"
Du Zhaoye snorted. He felt Qi Sheng was being a bit slick and pressed, "Xinxin’s clothes, bags, and watch—did you give them all to her?"
"Yes. Xinxin is so beautiful, she naturally deserves the best of everything."
Qi Sheng smiled at the young woman, scoring major points for himself.
"Mmm... sweetheart."
Hearing this sweet-nothing, Du Xinxin wished she could envelop Qi Sheng with her passion right then and there.
"Ahem..."
Du Zhaoye looked at his obedient daughter, whose eyes were filled with nothing but her lover, and asked with a budding headache.
"But these things are too expensive. You’re still just boyfriend and girlfriend. What if you break up in the future?"
"Uncle, you can rest assured. I will never ask for anything I’ve given Xinxin back, whether we stay together or not."
Qi Sheng smiled, offering the old couple some peace of mind.
"If you ever wrong her, even if I have to throw away my job, I will demand an explanation from you."
Before Qi Sheng could say anything...
"Dad~"
...the young woman beside him burst into tears and threw herself into Du Zhaoye’s arms.
"Silly girl."
Du Zhaoye dotingly stroked his daughter’s soft, black hair.
His graceful young daughter now had a sweetheart.
From now on, he was no longer the closest man in Du Xinxin’s world.
"Uncle, Auntie, I can promise you, my feelings for Xinxin are absolutely genuine."
"Words are cheap; it’s better to look at my actions."
"If you two feel I’m not doing a good job, you can hit me or scold me as you please. I absolutely won’t fight back."
Qi Sheng was indeed very fond of Du Xinxin.
Among his many girlfriends...
...the young woman’s importance was definitely not much less than Tan Hua’s.
"For that alone, I’ll drink with you tonight until we drop!"
Du Zhaoye finally broke into a smile, growing more and more satisfied with Qi Sheng.
Young, generous, tall, handsome, and with a remarkable career.
A prized son-in-law like him was hard to find, even in Du Zhaoye’s circles.
Although he was uneasy about Du Xinxin being in a relationship so early...
...how could his way of thinking compare to that of young people?
There were plenty of people Du Xinxin’s age who were already married with children.
"In that case, I’ll make a few dishes, and we can eat at home tonight."
Qi Sheng glanced at the time; it was already almost six-thirty.
"Auntie, you and Uncle surely didn’t eat well at lunch. Let’s not eat at home."
"I had someone book a restaurant in advance. If we head over now, the timing will be perfect."
"Hehe, in that case, your uncle and I won’t be polite. But we must be the ones to pay for this meal."
Xu Rong thought about how tight the time was and knew she really couldn’t make many dishes.
Besides, Qi Sheng had come from so far away; he probably hadn’t eaten well on the road.
When a prized son-in-law comes to visit, you naturally have to treat him to the best food and drink.
As for Du Xinxin, it was impossible to describe how happy she was.
Her boyfriend had received her parents’ approval.
The young woman was smiling so wide her eyes narrowed into slits.
’Tonight, should I wear the JK uniform or the white stockings to reward my dear stinky sweetheart for coming all this way?’
’Or... maybe I should just wear both?’
