Chapter 350: Little Girl, We Meet Again_1
Ye Baixiu and Bai Peiluan emerged from the VIP passageway, only to find that their son and daughter-in-law were absent. With brows furrowed in worry, Bai Peiluan unexpectedly spotted the young woman who had saved her and her husband at sea, yet left without leaving her name?
Bai Peiluan excitedly jabbed at Ye Baixiu’s side. “Baixiu, see that girl? Isn’t she the one who saved us at sea? What a coincidence to meet her here!”
Ye Baixiu gazed intently and realized it was indeed her. Fate seemed to be playing some mysterious cards that day.
Ye Xingguang didn’t wear makeup today. To make a good impression on her in-laws, her face was scrubbed clean. She wore a pair of jeans, a white shirt, and her thick, wavy hair fell lightly over her shoulders. She looked both charming and beautiful.
After all, as her mother told her, elders usually kind of appearance, not overly seductive, just elegant and charming.
Ye Baixiu and Bai Peiluan strode over to Ye Xingguang, and Bai Peiluan extended her hand to grip Ye Xingguang’s. “Young lady, we meet again. It must be destiny.”
Ye Xingguang was surprised, but then she also recognized Ye Baixiu and Bai Peiluan, smiled back, “Uncle, Auntie, what a coincidence.”
“Completely unexpected indeed. Last time we parted, you didn’t leave any contact information. I’ve been regretting that. Please don’t disappear again. We must express our gratitude for your help. Do you live in the capital?” Bai Peiluan engaged in warm conversation.
Ye Xingguang shook her head. “No, I’m studying at a university here, now I work here.”
“Great, you work in the capital. Come visit us sometimes. I’ll cook for you personally. My cooking is not bad. Let’s go home with us now.”
“Auntie, maybe another day, I’m here to pick up someone today.”
“Who are you picking up? I’ll accompany you. Afterward, we can all go to our house for dinner.”
Regardless of anything, she must express her gratitude to the girl today.
Ye Xingguang said nervously, “Auntie, it’s really not convenient today. I’m here to pick up my future in-laws, whom I’ve never met. I’m so nervous. Could I come over for dinner another day?”
Bai Peiluan looked both regretful and envious. “Whose parents are so fortunate to have you as a daughter-in-law?”
Isn’t there some truth to the saying that comparisons lead to harm!
Her future daughter-in-law, after making a few phone calls, still couldn’t be persuaded to show up.
Bai Peiluan patted Ye Xingguang’s hand sympathetically.
“Don’t be nervous, young lady. With a daughter-in-law like you, your in-laws must be absolutely beaming.”
Ye Xingguang anxiously, tugged at her hair, “But they don’t seem to like me. My boyfriend is so nervous that he’s holed up in the restroom leaving me attending them. Auntie, could you teach me some common phrases that elders like? I simply don’t know how to respond if they don’t like me.”
“How could anyone not like you?” said Bai Peiluan, incredulous and perplexed.
If it were up to her, she would be over the moon. Unfortunately, people live their own lives, which often made her feel disheartened as she did not have such a wonderful daughter-in-law.
Ye Xingguang also felt wronged: “There are some reasons, and they might not want me to be their daughter-in-law. They might even ask me to break up with my boyfriend and I don’t know how to respond if that happens.”
The more Bai Peiluan listened, the more annoyed she became. Which in-laws didn’t know how to appreciate a good thing when they saw it?
Bai Peiluan held Ye Xingguang’s hand and spoke with earnestness, “Young lady, take Auntie’s advice. If the elders don’t see a value in your marriage, you should give it serious consideration. If it doesn’t work out, you should consider leaving…”
