The open-mindedness of Wen Liang's parents finally relaxed the heartstrings of the two young people present, and they felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation and joy.
None of them expected that the ending of this meeting would be such an unexpected but happy ending.
Wen Ruian accepted the fact that her daughter and He Tianran were in love, but she did not fully accept it.
This is actually a helpless move. It is impossible for this old father to follow Wen Liang to school and stay by her side 24 hours a day. It is not advisable to beat the mandarin ducks with each other. Strong tactics will probably cause the two children to have a rebellious mentality. If you do something that is not worth the gain, the outcome will not be good for anyone. Therefore, the old father can only set a test for He Tianran to test whether it is really worth entrusting his daughter to him.
This will take time to verify, regardless of the length, but at least now the two of them no longer have to hide each other's thoughts in front of their parents.
Of course, even so, they did not dare to be too presumptuous.
"...Um, Master and Master, let me toast you again. Thank you for taking care of me this year."
At the dinner table, He Tianran said a toast that he was not very familiar with. It would have been better if the relationship was not made clear, but if it was made clear, he became more nervous, fearing that he had done something wrong.
Wen Ruian glanced at him, raised his glass, and drank without touching it, followed by He Tianran.
"I originally wanted to recognize you as my godson, but I didn't expect that your kid would like to change things. Let me tell you first. You still have to wait and see. There is no reason for you to mess around with your relationship. Does your father know about your affairs?"
Wen Ruian said angrily, and He Tianran poured him wine respectfully.
"Our relationship... he probably knows about it, but he doesn't know that we are already together."
"Together?"
Wen Ruian looked over at him with a killing look, and He Tianran was so frightened that he quickly changed his words:
"No, no, no, I mean, he knows that we have a crush on each other."
He Tianran confessed honestly, and Wen Liang, who had already sat back at the dinner table, listened with pricked up ears and did not say anything about He Panshan's invitation to the family banquet for the time being.
"Haha, I didn't expect that I would be the last person to know about this matter. No wonder he said so many good things to you on the phone and asked me to recommend a few old comrades or apprentices to be responsible for security in your company. I'll tell you These businessmen are so unprofitable that they can’t afford to start early.”
Wen Ruian regretted his stupidity. At this moment, he completely forgot to praise He Tianran's good qualities. He looked at him horizontally and vertically, but he didn't find any charm in this kid, and he didn't look like himself at all. Why did his daughter like this guy? Is it in stock?
The father-in-law became more and more angry when he looked at his son-in-law. He was talking about his situation.
He Tianran nodded and Nuonuo said yes, and he thought about it: "How about I call him here next time when I come over?"
Wen Ruian raised his wine glass and said disdainfully: "Why do you still use your kid to arrange it? Your father made an appointment with me to have tea with your wife in two days. We were originally going to discuss accepting you as his godson, but now... hum, no That’s easy to say.”
Mother Wen on the side couldn't stand it anymore, "Wen Ruian, you can do it, can you let Xiao He have a meal? After coming here for so long, now others only drink with you and don't even eat a grain of rice. This wine, if you are happy, keep drinking it; if you are unhappy, don’t drink it.”
This rich and powerful man was stopped here by his wife's words. He held a glass of wine to his lips and drank it, and it didn't matter if he didn't drink it.
But in the end, he drank the wine in one gulp under the eyes of the two children.
Wen Liang happily handed him the chopsticks and said diligently:
"Dad, eat!"
The old father snorted and took the chopsticks with a serious face. As soon as he stretched out his hand, his peripheral vision glanced at He Tianran who had not yet made a move. He said helplessly:
"Hurry, hurry up and eat, look at you, you are as skinny as a monkey."
He Tianran felt like he was being pardoned, and a numb feeling of happiness rushed from the soles of his feet to his scalp, and he hurriedly said:
"Hey!"
The boy ate the meal very happily. As if to show his masculinity, he ate a few more bowls. When Wen Liang scooped the rice for him, he was overjoyed. Wen's mother teased her husband:
"Xiao He's appetite is quite similar to yours."
In this regard, Wen Ruian lamented again.
During this period, the mistress asked the boy many questions, but most of them were about their lives and hobbies, and she did not deliberately make things difficult.
He Tianran originally thought that if Wen Liang's parents wanted to reject him and disapproved of the two of them being together, there were really too many reasons, such as their current studies, Wen Liang's future career...
After all, the girl was born as a child star. Although she has been in school in the past few years and has not filmed much, the reason why the family was able to move from the mountain city to the port city was undoubtedly to support her daughter in fulfilling her dream.
He Tianran initially thought that even if the two elders had no objections, they would restrict their interactions on the grounds of Wenliang's future development, but that was not the case.
Instead, Mother Wen just told him:
"Xiao He, you must help me look after Ah Liang at school from now on, and tell her not to randomly accept movies or sign contracts with companies. She is older now and thinks she has her own opinion. She relies on her little cleverness to get ahead of her. Yes, but actually I am naive and impulsive at heart.”
This sentence was said in front of Wen Liang, and the two of them were somewhat silent after hearing it.
In another timeline, Wen Liang was hidden for several years because of his dark history. It was not until his contract with the agency expired and he met He Tianran again that his career skyrocketed.
The years she was buried in the snow should be the most precious golden period for a young actress.
Although she had brought this evil result upon herself, others had no way of knowing the sophistication and warmth of people she had accumulated over the past few years.
"Mom...I won't do it anymore..."
Perhaps affected by this memory, Wen Liang was moved in her heart. She rarely got into her mother's arms, with a sincere expression and a meek response.
"Oh, you kid has changed so much since you found someone you like~"
Mother Wen was a little flattered. She patted her daughter's head, feeling happy and warm.
Wen Ruian looked at his wife and daughter nestling opposite each other, with deep love in his eyes.
He Tianran smiled and quietly poured another glass of wine for the old father.
After three drinks and five dishes, the four of them sat in the living room and chatted about the lives of the two children at school. Unknowingly, it was close to ten o'clock in the evening.
"Xiao He, don't go back to school today. You can stay in the boxing gym downstairs at night. There is a bed in the lounge. Lao Wen usually sleeps there during his lunch break. I'll go get you a bed with thicker bedding."
Seeing that the conversation was almost finished, Mother Wen stood up and walked to the bedroom.
"Master's wife, don't bother me, I..."
"If your mistress tells you to go to bed, then you can go to bed. It will take you more than an hour to go back now. It's already eleven o'clock, and you can't even go back to the dormitory."
Wen Ruian on the sofa broke open an orange, kept part of it for himself, and distributed the rest to Wen Liang and He Tianran nearby.
Now that the master had spoken, he scratched his head and naturally wouldn't say anything more.
"Wen Liang, come in and get it, and help Xiao He carry it down later. His hands are not good."
"Oh, here it comes!"
The mistress' call came from the bedroom. The little girl who was winking at her boyfriend immediately stood up and went to help.
After a while, she came out holding the quilt, her small face was covered by the quilt, her mouth and chin were covered, and she said in a cute voice: "Dad, please give us the key to the boxing gym, we will go down now."
Wen Ruian stared at the TV and said calmly: "It's in my coat pocket, go get it yourself."
He Tianran stood up, took out the key from the coat hanging on the side, and walked to Wen Liang. His girlfriend raised her eyebrows. The two of them arrived at the door and opened it, preparing to leave.
"Xiao He, wait a moment."
He Tianran turned his head and saw Wen's mother walking out of the bedroom, standing in the middle of the living room and waving to him.
The boy walked back again and said doubtfully:
"Master Wife, what's wrong?"
"Take this."
The middle-aged woman took his hand and stuffed a thin thing into his palm, like a piece of paper. He Tianran lowered his head and took a closer look. He was stunned in place for a moment. Thousands of emotions surged into his heart. He didn't know it. How to express it.
He finally understood the reason why his wife didn't deliberately make things difficult for them after she found out that he and Wen Liang were together.
"Go on, you two should be good at school from now on and don't quarrel, you know?"
Mother Wen reached out and smoothed He Tianran's hanging bangs. The latter looked at the mother who had been worrying about her daughter for most of her life, nodded seriously, put the things in her hands out of her pocket, turned around and walked out the door.
"What did my mother give you?"
"Secret, I won't tell you."
"Tell me, or take it out and show it to me..."
"No~"
"Oh~just one glance~~"
…
…
Listening to the voices of the two children fading away, Wen Ruian looked at his wife who was sitting next to him.
"What did you give him?"
"A souvenir that will make Xiao He love your daughter even more."
"Is there anything else I don't know about them?"
"You don't know much more."
Wen Ruian was speechless for a moment, but as a big man he was too embarrassed to ask, so he could only say:
"Do you believe the story the children just told?"
The wife shook her head: "Xiao He doesn't know, but Ah Liang must have told a lie."
"What? What's wrong?"
The wife looked at her nervous husband and said in a nonchalant way, "You will be even more sad if you tell me."
"you say."
The wife rolled her eyes at her husband and said with a smile: "Your daughter, her love for Xiao He is not just love at first sight. She likes others from the beginning."
Although Wen Ruian refused to believe it, hearing such news at this time was no longer enough to make him sad.
He slowly leaned back on the sofa and said feebly: "That's it? Is there any difference from their current relationship?"
"There's not much difference, but do you still remember the day Xiao He came to the boxing gym?"
"Remember, what happened?"
"That morning, your good daughter went out early. Within two hours, I received a text message from the bank on my mobile phone. She spent nearly 10,000 yuan. The card she used was her childhood salary card. Then at noon, she Xiao He is here at the boxing gym. Where do you think she spent the money?
I checked later and found that they were all clothing stores and cosmetics stores. The most expensive items were from a guitar store. But she didn’t learn guitar, and I didn’t see her carrying anything when she came back. Since she didn’t He said, I pretended not to know, it was her money anyway, but think about it, has she ever spent so much money on your father? "
Wen Ruian's huge body slowly straightened up on the sofa with his wife's words. When he heard the last word, he put one hand on his thigh, patted his forehead with the other, and said loudly:
"Alas! There is no chance for a female university student to be admitted!"
"By the way, there's one more thing you shouldn't forget."
"What?"
"Remember to fill up your precious daughter's car with gas tomorrow."
