Chapter 386: Chapter 386: Was She Picked Up? Chapter 386: Chapter 386: Was She Picked Up? When Shen Zhaozhao and Sheng Chuyi arrived home, both Daddy Zhaozhao and Zhaozhao’s mother happened to have a day off at home.
“Feeling nervous?” Standing at the doorway of her home, Shen Zhaozhao winked at Sheng Chuyi and asked.
She was just making small talk, but seeing his serious expression, Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t help but laugh, “Are you really nervous? Relax, my parents like you so much, what are you worried about?”
In the past, he was just a neighbor whom they liked; now he was about to take away their carefully nurtured flower, pot and all.
Shen Zhaozhao: “There’s nothing different about it, a son-in-law is half a son; they’re getting a handsome and promising son for free, they should be thrilled.”
Having said that, Shen Zhaozhao began to knock on the door with a “bang bang bang.”
Zhaozhao’s mother opened the door, and upon seeing Shen Zhaozhao, she said, “You girl, needing someone else to open the door for you at your own home?”
“I would like to open it myself, but do I look like I have a free hand?” Shen Zhaozhao lifted up her hands full of stuff to show Zhaozhao’s mother.
Zhaozhao’s mother frowned and asked, “Why did you buy so much stuff?”
“This wasn’t my purchase.” Shen Zhaozhao moved aside to reveal Sheng Chuyi standing behind her.
“Aunt Shu Ran,” he greeted with a smile.
Seeing Sheng Chuyi, Zhaozhao’s mother’s eyes suddenly lit up, and the stern face she had just now instantly relaxed, as she warmly and lovingly called out, “Yiyi is back too, come in quickly.”
Her attitude was completely different from when she saw Shen Zhaozhao just before.
After saying this, she didn’t forget to pull Sheng Chuyi inside, leaving Shen Zhaozhao outside the door.
Shen Zhaozhao: Who is she? Where is she?
This is her home, right?
Why does she feel like she’s walked into the wrong house? Does Yiyi seem like her real child?
Ultimately, it was Daddy Zhaozhao who saw her standing foolishly at the doorstep and called out, “What are you doing standing at the door, silly child? Aren’t you going to come in?”
“Uncle Shen, Aunt Shu Ran, these are for you,” Sheng Chuyi said, placing a heap of things he brought on the living room coffee table.
Zhaozhao’s mother looked at the overly generous gifts and said, “It’s enough just to come, why bring so many things? Your Uncle Shen and I don’t lack anything; don’t forget to take them back with you when you leave.”
Daddy Zhaozhao also hurriedly agreed, “Aunt Shu Ran is right, treat this place like your own home, there’s no need to be so formal.”
“These are just proper manners,” Sheng Chuyi said with a smile.
Aunt Ran: “What’s proper or not, if anyone should be preparing gifts, it should be us. Zhaozhao has been in Jing City for the past two years and must have caused you and your parents lots of trouble. If anyone should be sending gifts, it should be us giving them to your family.”
“Ahem, Mom, Dad, I have an announcement to make,” said Shen Zhaozhao, who had been largely ignored since she walked in, as she cleared her throat to speak up.
But neither of her parents paid attention to her, their eyes only on Sheng Chuyi.
I must be adopted, right?
I’m definitely adopted!
Shen Zhaozhao took a deep breath and then spoke even louder, “Yiyi and I are together.”
“What did you just say?”
Zhaozhao’s mother finally heard her, and looked at her in shock and disbelief, wondering if she had misheard.
Then they saw Sheng Chuyi take Shen Zhaozhao’s hand, and with a smile, he turned to his future in-laws and said, “Uncle Shen, Aunt Shu Ran, you heard right, Zhaozhao and I are together, and we hope that Uncle Shen and Aunt Shu Ran can agree to our relationship. Additionally, my parents will be back in a few days and would like to discuss with you two about our engagement.”
