The arrogance of the city

Chapter 1331
"Sorry, I really have no choice. No matter what my parents say later, don't you take it to heart?"

In a supermarket, Bai Ling and Li An are shopping.

Dragon Kingdom has been a state of etiquette since ancient times. Although it is only a contractual relationship, the acting must be performed to the end. There is absolutely no reason to come empty-handed for the first time.

"I see."

Li An is indeed a principled comrade. Since he agreed to Bai Ling, he didn't intend to break the promise halfway. Even if Bai Ling made an excessive request to visit her parents at her home, he still chose to agree.

"What do your parents like?"

"Just buy some wine, my dad doesn't smoke."

In the end, the two picked two bottles of Moutai and some health care products, which Li An insisted on paying, and Bai Ling didn't force it.

The community where Bai Ling's family lives is naturally incomparable to the environment he lives in, surrounded by greenery. In a word, all he sees are single-family villas with different styles.

"Don't be nervous, take it easy, and don't take it seriously if they say anything outrageous."

When he pushed the door to get out of the car, Bai Ling said again.

Li An nodded, no matter what he thought in his heart, at least when he and Bai Ling walked to this red-roofed villa, his face was still calm.

"Ding dong, ding dong..."

Bai Ling rang the doorbell, and not long after, the imposing solid wood door was opened from the inside.

"Miss, you are back."

The door was opened by a middle-aged woman dressed as a nanny, and then she saw Li An behind Bai Ling, without condescending contempt or discrimination, she smiled and said: "This is Mr. Li, right? Please come in."

"This is Aunt Yang. She has been working in my house since I was very young. It can be said that she watched me grow up."

Bai Ling introduced.

Li An called out politely: "Aunt Yang."

It is said that the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, as an old man who has served the Bai family for decades, Aunt Yang did not show any arrogance and arrogance, or maybe she did not know the specific identity of a certain comrade, and she enthusiastically greeted him. After receiving the gift, he and Bai Ling were welcomed into the door.

"mom."

Hearing Bai Ling's shout, Li An looked at the lady sitting on the sofa.

It stands to reason that even if you are an elder, you should get up at this time, but seeing her daughter leading her boyfriend into the door, Bai Mu didn't mean to greet her at all, she still sat on the sofa motionless, but looked up from the magazine in her hand. up.

Li An, who deliberately wore another gray Versace suit that Bai Ling bought that day, met Bai Ling's eyes and followed Bai Ling towards the other side, and called out politely: "Auntie."

Not to mention getting up to greet her, she couldn't even see a basic smile on Mother Bai's face. Although she was sitting slightly looking up at Li An, she felt condescending.

"You are Li An?"

Li An nodded and smiled, gentle and respectful.

"I've always wanted to visit my aunt and uncle, but I was worried that my uncle and aunt were busy with their affairs, so I dragged it off until today. I hope my aunt won't be offended."

Mother Bai smiled, put the magazine on the sofa, and stared at Ang Lee's brand-name suit.

"Your own clothes?"

A certain comrade didn't change his face, and was completely frank.

"Bai Ling bought it for me."

"Oh?"

Mother Bai smiled even more, "It seems that my daughter treats you very well."

A certain comrade played the identity of the poor son-in-law perfectly, and nodded and smiled upon hearing this.

"It was my luck to meet Bai Ling."

His thick skin is astonishing.

"Sit first."

Bai Ling knew that expecting his mother to speak was probably wishful thinking, so she took the initiative to grab Li An's hand and pulled him to sit down, and secretly squeezed his palm to signal him not to care.

All these small movements were fully seen by Bai Mu, staring at the hands of a pair of young people holding each other, Bai Mu said: "Actually, what I hope to see is that Shao Qi is here today. I'm following you."

Shao Qi is undoubtedly an extremely smart person, and he is cautious enough. Seeing the scene where Tao Yaoyao tied the man's shoes, he had serious doubts about the identity of the bartender.

Without being sure who the opponent is, he will not take any risks, and he doesn't even mind temporarily withdrawing from the competition against Bai Ling.

"mom!"

Mentioning Shao Qi at this time clearly meant an insult to Li An, Bai Ling couldn't help shouting, signaling to his mother not to go too far.

Mother Bai looked at Li An indifferently.

"Young man, do you understand me?"

Li An nodded, and said calmly and peacefully: "Maybe Auntie values ​​Young Master Shao more, but you can't force yourself to do emotional matters. It's Bai Ling who makes the choice."

Mother Bai raised her eyebrows.

She heard a hint of provocation from the bartender's tone.

"Do you think that if Bai Ling likes you, you will definitely be together? Feelings are indeed a matter between two people, but life is not. Love without material things is like an apple with a bite left in the air, sooner or later it will rot of."

Bai Mu said lightly, "As far as I know, you are currently working in a bar. Do you know how much Bai Ling spends every month? Do you think you can afford it? Or, do you think you don't have to?"

Although in the eyes of everyone, Li An made it clear that he was going to eat soft food when he approached Bai Ling, but at least in front of Bai Mu, Li An did not show his shameless face of being determined to eat soft food.

"Auntie, I know that my income is meager now, and there is a gap between Bai Ling's living standard, but I will work hard."

"effort?"

The corners of Baimu's mouth raised slightly.

"Then how long do you plan to work hard? Three years? Five years? Or ten years? Do you know how old Bai Ling is now? A woman's youth is not like a man's, and it cannot be delayed."

"mom!"

Bai Ling yelled heavily, looking at his mother without concealing his anger.

"I used to think my daughter would never get carried away, but I found out I was wrong."

Mother Bai glanced at her.

"Yeah, feelings without any interests involved sound so pure, beautiful, and desirable. But don't forget, life can never be separated from vegetables, rice, oil and salt. She has never lived a hard life, and she may not understand that kind of food. It's a feeling of being unfed and displaced, but young man, I think you should understand."

Although Bai Ling's father has not been seen yet, Bai Mu's position is very clear.

She stared at Li An, and asked in a flat and calm tone: "If Bai Ling is just like you, just a daughter of a poor family, would you like her?"

Even though it was only a contractual relationship, at this moment, Bai Ling couldn't help but turn his head. For some reason, he was a little concerned about Li An's answer.

Li An didn't think for long, and soon shook his head and smiled.

Just when Mother Bai showed an unexpected smile and Bai Ling's eyes dimmed slightly, he spoke slowly, with a deep meaning.

"If Bai Ling were the daughter of a poor family, maybe I wouldn't have to sit here today."
