Chapter 223: Meeting the Parents for the Second Time
"Yishu, look here~"
Driving the new car back to the residence, less than 200 meters away from the main entrance of the community, Zheng Jiaxin stepped on the brakes, rolled down the window and waved to Jiang Yishu who was walking forward with a few books in her arms.
Jiang Yishu turned her head, her eyes sparkling. She then looked at Chen Jianghe, who was sitting in the back row and winking at her. A smile immediately appeared on her pretty face, and her watery almond eyes curved into beautiful crescents.
"You are so lucky. Yishu seldom smiles. Only when she sees you, I see her smile so happily, with her eyes full of joy."
Zheng Jiaxin couldn't help but mutter under her breath.
“My wife is just so good.”
Chen Jianghe smiled. Jiang Yishu's outfit today was a bit like a high school girl's uniform, with a light white shirt and a grey pleated skirt, which complemented her fair and delicate skin and her graceful girlish temperament. She had a youthful ponytail and natural air bangs. When the breeze blew, the ends of her hair and the hem of her skirt lifted up slightly, making her look bright and pure. Even from several meters away, Chen Jianghe seemed to be able to smell the sweet scent of milk on her body.
Chen Jianghe got out of the car and walked quickly to Jiang Yishu. He took the book from her with one hand and held her hand with the other. He called out to his aunt, "Aunt, you drive back and pack your luggage. I'll walk with Yishu."
"Oh!" Zheng Jiaxin responded and drove away in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Yishu looked at the Mercedes Benz speeding away, then turned to look at Chen Jianghe and asked with a smile, "Is this a new car?"
"Well, I can't always let my aunt drive a BYD to pick up my wife." Chen Jianghe said with a relaxed look.
"BYD is also good." Jiang Yishu said softly. She didn't have any material requirements and didn't care much about many things.
"I think it's pretty good too." Chen Jianghe took his hand out of Jiang Yishu's palm and placed it on her slender and soft waist, gently holding it. He turned his head and looked at her and said, "After all, you are the best."
Jiang Yishu shuddered noticeably. There were many neighbors on the road leading to the community who often greeted each other. Chen Jianghe's intimate action made her nervous and a little shy, but she really liked the feeling of being so close to him. Even if her face was flushed, she would still want to get closer and rest her cheek lightly on his shoulder.
The two walked forward silently without saying a word. When they were almost at the gate of the community, Chen Jianghe asked shamelessly, "Did you notify your parents in advance to prepare delicious food for me?"
"Yes." Jiang Yishu nodded and said, "I called my dad last night and told him about this. He said you can eat whatever you want. We will provide you with enough."
"Really?" Chen Jianghe looked at Jiang Yishu.
"Yeah." Jiang Yishu also looked up at him, blinked, and said softly: "Brother, move your hand a little higher."
"Oh." Chen Jianghe smiled, raised his hand and put it back on her waist, and explained: "My palms were sweating just now, and my hand slipped..."
Jiang Yishu pursed her lips and said nothing. When Chen Jianghe's hand slipped just now, she felt as if an electric current passed through her waist, making her feel tingling and numb, just like the first time they held hands.
Soon, after packing her luggage, Zheng Jiaxin drove out of the community, picked up Chen Jianghe and Jiang Yishu and returned directly to Dongguan.
The journey was relatively smooth. We got on the highway at five o'clock in the afternoon and entered Dongguan City at around six o'clock. When the car stopped in front of Jiang Yishu's house, it was exactly seven o'clock.
"Aunt, don't go back so late. Let's have dinner together at home." Jiang Yishu invited.
"No, Chen Jianghe is coming back with you to meet your parents. I won't join in the fun. I'll come over some other day."
Zheng Jiaxin was a clear-headed person. She smiled and shook her head, then said to Chen Jianghe, "I'll leave the car to you. I'll take a taxi back. Remember to take the gift from the trunk."
"Okay." Chen Jianghe nodded. His aunt's emotional intelligence was really amazing. As long as they were not bickering, everything she said and did made people feel warm and relaxed.
After saying that, Zheng Jiaxin unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car, walking forward leisurely. When Chen Jianghe and Jiang Yishu got out of the car to get their luggage, she turned around and waved to them, then hailed a taxi and left in style.
"Lao Jiang, my daughter is home."
As soon as Chen Jianghe closed the trunk, the light at the door of Jiang Yishu's house lit up, and then he heard the voice of Yishu's mother Luo Jiamin.
"Haha, my daughter and I are in sync. Dad has just finished cooking the vegetables and a pot of delicious soup is ready!"
Jiang Zhihua walked out of the kitchen with a smile on his face, rubbed his hands excitedly, and went to the door to greet his daughter and Chen Jianghe who came for the second time.
"Uncle Jiang, Aunt Luo."
Chen Jianghe walked forward to greet him with a smile and handed over the gift that his aunt had prepared for him.
"I told you last time not to bring gifts when you come to dinner, why are you bringing them again?"
Jiang Zhihua took the gift and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for half a year. You seem to have grown a little taller?"
"Look at what you said. Jiang He is not short. He is about 1.8 meters tall, tall and handsome."
Luo Jiamin's attitude towards Chen Jianghe was quite like that of a mother-in-law who likes her son-in-law more and more: "You've had a hard time on the journey. Come in."
"Okay."
Chen Jianghe naturally reached out and held Jiang Yishu's hand, then walked in with a smile on his face, looking carefree, as if he was just returning to his own home.
On the contrary, Jiang Yishu's cheeks were flushed. In front of her parents, she looked like a young daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law. She followed Chen Jianghe inside silently.
Jiang Zhihua looked at the two of them, then turned to look at the Mercedes parked at the door, thinking to himself: "I was married to Jiamin before, and I was not as calm as this guy when I came to celebrate the festival. No wonder my daughter likes him so much, he is really extraordinary."
At this time, Luo Jiamin called out again: "Lao Jiang, what are you doing standing at the door? Come and open the red wine."
"Hey, here I come."
Jiang Zhihua hurried in, came to the dining table, and said to Chen Jianghe, "I drank too much white wine last time, and it took a lot of effort to send you back. Let's have a few glasses of red wine tonight, just a taste."
"OK."
Chen Jianghe was quite casual and took the initiative to open the red wine. After opening it, he poured it into Uncle Jiang and Luo Jiamin's glasses first, then poured it for Yishu, and finally poured it for himself.
A family of four doesn't need to stick to rituals like "decanting" when drinking red wine. They can just pick up the glass, touch it lightly, each take a sip, sit down and chat while eating.
"I heard that there is a college student in eastern Guangdong who has been very popular recently. He started his own business and launched a takeaway group purchase project called Chasing Lights. In just one month, his business has spread across the Pearl River Delta."
Jiang Zhihua often reads newspapers at work, and pays more attention to news about eastern Guangdong and college students, so he noticed the recent popularity of "Light Chasers".
However, the media reports related to the Light Chaser did not mention Chen Jianghe by name, which to a certain extent increased the mystery of this entrepreneurial college student.
"Uncle Jiang, what do you think about college students starting their own businesses?" Chen Jianghe asked calmly.
“It is not easy for college students to start a business. Courage and strength are indispensable. No matter what the outcome is, as long as you have the courage to try, it is amazing.”
Jiang Zhihua took a sip of red wine and said seriously: "If you also have the idea of starting a business, your uncle will definitely support you spiritually."
"Jiang He, don't listen to your uncle Jiang." Luo Jiamin said; "If you have any ideas about starting a business, you can discuss it with me."
"OK."
Chen Jianghe nodded happily in agreement, secretly exchanged a glance with Jiang Yishu, and the two of them ate their food in tacit understanding.
At this moment, in Chen Jianghe's mind, starting a business is not worth mentioning at all. The main point is to take Yishu home to see the cat tonight.
Dinner lasted until about eight o'clock, and Chen Jianghe was a little tipsy. It was still early, so he just sat on the sofa and watched TV with her.
It was not until ten o'clock that Chen Jianghe stood up to say goodbye, and Jiang Yishu took the initiative to see him off.
When the two men just left, Jiang Zhihua and Luo Jiamin sat calmly on the sofa and continued watching TV. When they heard the sound of a door closing outside, the couple stood up at the same time, walked quickly to the window, and looked out.
"The car has left. Will my daughter come home tonight?" Jiang Zhihua glared.
"Maybe, perhaps, possibly I won't go home." Luo Jiamin said hesitantly.
"No, my daughter is still young. I have to call her and tell her to come home." Jiang Zhihua took out his cell phone and prepared to make a call.
"I have already explained everything that needs to be explained on the phone some time ago. My daughter is already in college, and we can't always restrict her with rules and regulations." Luo Jiamin raised her hand to stop him.
"When did you become so open-minded?" Jiang Zhihua was a little surprised.
"When you coaxed me back home, didn't my parents say anything?" Luo Jiamin asked with a smile.
