#93 - Chapter 93: What’s your relationship with my son?

"Qianqian, this is a bit complicated to explain, you're too young to understand. Let your dad slowly explain it to grandpa and grandma."

"It's late, let's go to the hotel to sleep first."

"Uncle and Auntie, see you tomorrow."

After Xu Mengyao finished speaking, she hugged Lin Qianqian and quickly left the ward.

"Mom, did I say something wrong?"

Lin Qianqian's voice faintly echoed from the corridor.

Lin Hai and Chen Mei stared at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen closed the door, and Chen Mei quickly said, "Son, what's your relationship with Mengyao now?"

Lin Chen coughed lightly and said, "For Qianqian's sake, Mengyao and I don't plan to get married in the next few years, so I suggested that we simply get a marriage certificate, and she agreed."

Lin Hai and Chen Mei were stunned. This works?

Isn't their son tricking Xu Mengyao into marrying him?

"Mom and Dad, what kind of look is that? I just tricked her into getting a certificate, I didn't deceive her for money or sex."

"We had a prenuptial agreement for property notarization, and I haven't messed around after getting the certificate. Mengyao used to have psychological trauma from some stimulation, so I can only slowly let her accept me."

Lin Chen curled his lips.

Lin Hai asked, "Has there been any progress in your relationship?"

Lin Chen: "We're at the holding hands stage. In some situations, she'll call me husband, and she doesn't object when I call her wife."

"We will definitely be together, but it takes time."

Chen Mei nodded: "We know about the psychological issues. When Grandpa Li at the village head was alive, he would get a headache when he heard firecrackers."

Lin Hai nodded slightly.

He sighed softly, "He used to participate in the war, and his comrades fell one by one beside him, even being blown to pieces. Those cruel scenes are hard for us to imagine."

Chen Mei looked at Lin Chen and said, "Son, you've already gotten the certificate, and there's been progress in your relationship, so it's okay for us to prepare a red envelope for Mengyao, right?"

"If we give it to her, will she accept it?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Mengyao should accept it."

Chen Mei nodded: "That's good."

Lin Hai: "There are two more questions. The house is being built at home, and the old house has been demolished. We usually live at your uncle's house. Where will Mengyao and the others stay?"

"Also, should we introduce her to the relatives at home?"

Lin Chen thought for a while: "She and Qianqian will stay in a hotel."

"They're here to see you, Dad, so we won't see the relatives. Let's wait until we have a wedding banquet in the future."

Lin Hai and Chen Mei nodded.

Now that the house is being built, it's messy, and it's really inconvenient.

"Son, Mengyao's family—"

Chen Mei was a little worried.

The Xu family is super rich, will they object to them being together? She's seen a lot of these kinds of plots in TV dramas.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I've met her parents, they can't wait for me to have a wedding banquet with Mengyao right now."

Chen Mei and Lin Hai's eyes lit up.

In that case, there wouldn't be much hindrance for Lin Chen and Xu Mengyao to be together. The only obstacle is Xu Mengyao's illness.

"Son, then hurry up."

"The house can be built in three or four months, and then you can have a wedding banquet."

Lin Hai said with a smile.

Lin Chen nodded: "Mengyao is gradually recovering. In three or four months, I think she should be able to recover to seventy or eighty percent."

They don't need to recover to the point where they can roll around in bed before the wedding banquet, but at least they have to recover to the point where they can kiss a little.

Otherwise, if others make a fuss and ask them to kiss at the wedding, and they can't kiss, the scene will be a little awkward.

Chen Mei: "Son, we understand the situation. You go quickly, go see what's going on with Mengyao and the others. Mengyao and Qianqian have come all the way to see us."

"Okay."

Lin Chen nodded and left.

……

The hotel Liang Ye booked wasn't far away.

Lin Chen arrived at the hotel in a little over ten minutes.

"Daddy!"

"Will you tell me a story?"

Lin Qianqian said happily.

Lin Chen picked up Lin Qianqian and kissed her: "Of course, but it's pretty late today. Daddy will tell you three stories, and then you'll go to sleep obediently, okay?"

"Okay, okay."

Soon Lin Chen began to tell Lin Qianqian stories.

Xu Mengyao went to the bathroom to take a shower.

The sound of rushing water came out, and Lin Chen felt a little restless.

Before the third story was finished, Lin Qianqian fell asleep, and Xu Mengyao came out of the bathroom.

Lin Chen looked at Xu Mengyao.

"Wife, you're so beautiful."

Xu Mengyao's pretty face turned red visibly quickly, and she said娇嗔, "You're glib, not a good person."

Lin Chen walked towards Xu Mengyao: "I'm a bad person, so shouldn't I do something that fits the identity?"

"You… you're not allowed to mess around."

Xu Mengyao said with a somewhat flustered expression, "I have something to discuss with you."

Lin Chen stopped. He was just scaring Xu Mengyao, would he really forcibly hug and kiss Xu Mengyao?

"What is it?"

Lin Chen sat down on the sofa and asked.

Xu Mengyao: "Let's buy an apartment in the county town. If Qianqian misses grandpa and grandma, there's a place to stay when we come over. Staying in a hotel isn't as convenient as staying at home."

"You cook delicious food, make something delicious to nourish Uncle."

Lin Chen nodded: "That's a good idea."

There are no purchase restrictions now, you can buy houses as you like. The house prices in their county are low, and a house doesn't cost much.

Xu Mengyao: "I've taken a fancy to one that only costs two million."

"What?"

Lin Chen was stunned, "What kind of house are you looking at? The house prices in our county should only be three to four thousand yuan per square meter now."

Xu Mengyao said: "A large flat of three hundred square meters, the decoration is very good. The landlord decorated it but hasn't moved in yet. There's a problem with the business's cash flow, so they can only sell the house."

"The landlord has been selling it for half a year and hasn't sold it yet. The formaldehyde has dissipated almost completely, so it's perfect for living in."

She took out her phone and showed it to Lin Chen.

The intermediary uploaded a lot of photos of the house, and the decoration was indeed not bad. It didn't look like a fake listing either.

"With such a large area, the landlord must have spent a lot on the decoration."

Xu Mengyao said.

Lin Chen nodded: "If you buy it to live in and don't consider selling it in the future, then it's worth buying."

Xu Mengyao: "We don't need to sell it. If your parents go to the county to see a doctor or something, they'll have a place to stay in the future."

Xu Mengyao said.

Lin Chen nodded: "I'll go take a look tomorrow morning, and if it's suitable, I'll buy it. Then you can bring my parents directly over."

"If it's not suitable, I'll look for other houses."

Xu Mengyao: "You're buying a house and a shop, you probably don't have much money left, right? I'll buy this house that I like."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "A daughter-in-law buying a house in full, do you think my parents will be embarrassed to live there at that time?"

"Then we'll split it half and half."

Xu Mengyao thought for a while and said.

Lin Chen nodded: "That's okay. Mengyao, let's not worry about buying a house for now, where am I sleeping?"

"You have a king-size bed here, the three of us can sleep on it."

Xu Mengyao: "……"

She said unhappily, "I booked a room for you next door. You can go to the front desk to register and get a room card."

Lin Chen said sternly: "Although you are rich, you must also save money. Save when you should save, and spend when you should spend."

"There is no need to spend this money."

"One bed is enough."

Xu Mengyao: "……"
