Chapter 689 Visiting Parents
Chapter 689 Visiting Parents
Every hurdle is difficult, but every hurdle can be overcome. —Epigraph
Hearing this, Dongfang Junyan felt a little disappointed, but then he thought that this seemed to be giving him a chance, and he was filled with fighting spirit again.
"Brother, I will always be good to Nuoxi."
"Go away, who's your brother? Don't call me that." Fan Chenyu felt a shiver run through him and retorted.
Dongfang Junyan did not refute, but simply laughed.
Fan Chenyu could only glare at Fan Nuoxi in annoyance, but Fan Nuoxi stepped forward and took Fan Chenyu's hand, "Then I'll go back to visit my parents in a few days. Brother, you must put in a good word for me."
"Tch, you'd better think about how not to upset Mom and Dad first." She retorted verbally, but her body clearly enjoyed Fan Nuoxi's closeness.
……
In this way, Fan Chenyu's attitude towards Dongfang Junyan softened day by day under his "influence".
Well, actually it's more about helplessness and compromise.
After all, if he had tried to make things too difficult for her, Fan Nuoxi would have put pressure on him, otherwise the test could have lasted even longer.
Two weeks later, based on Fan Chenyu's relenting and his willingness to take on some of the pressure, Fan Nuoxi and Dongfang Junyan nervously followed Fan Chenyu home.
As for Tuanzi, due to her special nature, she was held in Fan Chenyu's arms.
The Fan family.
Fan Nuoxi's parents were overjoyed when they learned a few days ago that she was going home, but when they heard that she was bringing someone with her, they had mixed feelings.
As a result, Fan Chenyu was bombarded with messages and phone calls, but he didn't tell Fan Nuoxi any of it.
"Ding-dong-"
The moment the doorbell rang, a delicate balance was broken, and the atmosphere subtly changed from that moment on.
Fan Nuoxi, who rang the doorbell, felt a slight tingling sensation, yet her heart was filled with anticipation, and her eyes reddened slightly.
When the door opened, it was Fan's mother. She was wearing an apron, and the aroma of food wafted over. Her eyes were full of joy and excitement, and her gaze fell on Fan Nuoxi's face with great delight. Her smile was warm and bright.
Fan Nuoxi's nose tingled, and she rushed into her mother's arms, tears streaming down her face. "Mom... I missed you so much!"
After a tender moment between mother and daughter, Fan's mother turned her attention to the others. She looked at Fan Chenyu, who was holding Tuanzi with a somewhat guilty expression, and her eyes were slightly cold. When her gaze fell on the uneasy Dongfang Junyan, she looked more inquisitive.
They merely glanced at the gifts placed beside them, seemingly unconcerned.
"Since you're here, please come in and have a seat."
These words were clearly directed at Dongfang Junyan. Although the tone was not very pleasant, it still conveyed basic politeness.
After carrying his things into the house, Dongfang Junyan became even more uneasy, not daring to look around or move around freely.
Because he felt several bright gazes fixed on him, the words he had prepared before leaving were now completely useless.
With two "outsiders" in the house, Fan's parents scolded Fan Chenyu a few times before telling him to go to the kitchen to help out.
For Fan Chenyu, this was like a pardon.
Soon, only Mr. Fan, Fan Nuoxi, and Dongfang Junyan remained in the living room.
The one who was most uneasy had to be Dongfang Junyan, who sat on the sofa with his brows down, feeling anxious and uneasy.
Fan Nuoxi calmly drank her water, facing her father's scrutinizing gaze.
After a long silence, Mr. Fan sighed softly and began to speak.
"Girl, how did you two meet?"
"We met at a gathering with friends during an outing," Fan Nuoxi replied.
But subconsciously, she recalled her heroic act from that time, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
If my own father found out that I went up and forcibly kissed someone during a game of Truth or Dare, I'd probably get a scolding...
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Junyan clearly recalled the situation at the time. His ears turned red first, followed by his face turning red all the way to his neck. However, he dared not utter a sound, but in his heart, he hoped that this "torture" could end quickly.
When Mr. Fan saw the two of them acting like this, he had a guess in his mind.
Then, Mr. Fan asked some seemingly trivial questions, which Fan Nuoxi answered one by one, speaking with perfect eloquence.
At this point, Mr. Fan had roughly pieced together the story of how the two of them met and fell in love.
They probably had a good impression of each other at first sight, but didn't know each other. After a long time, they had the opportunity to meet again due to some fate. Over time, they developed feelings for each other, and eventually fell in love.
However, this was, of course, a situation that the two had discussed beforehand.
Certain specific details, of course, cannot be mentioned. To say them would sound absurd, and in some cases, I might get beaten up.
Seeing that there seemed to be nothing to criticize about Fan Nuoxi, Fan's father found an excuse to send her to the kitchen.
Fortunately, the kitchen at home is big enough to accommodate several people.
Now, only Mr. Fan and Dongfang Junyan remained in the living room.
Dongfang Junyan glanced in the direction Fan Nuoxi had left, inwardly groaning, and could only grit his teeth and face Fan's father's "interrogation".
"Are you truly sincere towards my daughter?" Mr. Fan asked, noticing that he hadn't interrupted earlier, and his tone was relatively gentle.
Dongfang Junyan tried hard to control his breathing, making himself appear less nervous, and said earnestly, "I love her more than I love myself. I won't restrict her just because I love her..."
"Love?" Mr. Fan saw the stubbornness and sincerity in his eyes and seemed somewhat moved. "Then tell me, what does my daughter like and dislike? And what did you do in the process of pursuing her?"
Dongfang Junyan took a deep breath, seemingly casually wiping the sweat from his palms on his pants, and began to speak slowly and deliberately. The more he spoke, the brighter his eyes became, filled with love.
He knew everything about her like the back of his hand, just like a pure-hearted young man who had found his beloved.
"Nuoxi likes many things, such as desserts. She will eat different desserts, pastries or cakes, depending on her mood, but she always eats in moderation and never overindulges..."
"She's adorable when she eats; she doesn't neglect others just because she likes one dish too much, and she's very considerate of other people's feelings..."
"She also loves flowers, especially those that are fragrant and beautiful..."
"When the mood strikes, I enjoy drawing, doing crafts, reading, playing games, and so on..."
"I really dislike washing dishes, that's one of them."
"She doesn't like people smoking in front of her, doesn't like being pointed at or talked about, doesn't like others interfering too much with her choices, doesn't like..."
"I still remember when I was pursuing her, she liked to avoid me, and would even tease me occasionally, like a cute kitten doing harmless but adorable things. She was like a little sun, warming others and shining on herself..."
"But when she's sure of her feelings, she'll tell me directly, frankly telling me what she wants and doesn't want..."
"From the time I met her until now, I have never argued with her, because I can't bear to argue with her, I don't want her to cry, and I hope she can be happy..."
"..."
Fan Chenyu, who was helping in the kitchen, heard this and looked at Fan Nuoxi with great interest, as if he had caught her red-handed.
Fan Nuoxi blushed and glared back, while Tuanzi covered her mouth and laughed, creating a very pleasant atmosphere.
Fan's mother, however, was delighted and couldn't help but hum a little tune.
Looking at Dongfang Junyan's increasingly enthusiastic manner, Fan's father felt a pang of sadness, but had nowhere to vent his anger.
My precious daughter... she actually got her heart stolen by this blond guy!
Although... this blond guy seems a bit reliable?
These words sound more like boasting and provocation...
Damn it!
Mr. Fan cleared his throat, trying to regain his footing. "If that's the case, why didn't I know you were dating my daughter before? Or do you think my daughter isn't presentable enough?"
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Junyan knew he was being challenged. His heart tightened, and he looked guilty. "I was wrong to do this. I wanted to wait until my relationship with Nuoxi was more stable before visiting..."
Actually, he was afraid that Fan Nuoxi wouldn't give him a proper title and wouldn't want him, but he dared not say it, nor could he say it.
"That sounds nice, but who knows if you just want to take advantage of my daughter and then leave without a trace?" Mr. Fan was very unhappy and glared at him.
Dongfang Junyan felt wronged.
He's more likely afraid that Nuoxi will just pack up and leave...
