On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter

Looking at Chen Mo's strong back stretched out in front of him, he felt an extremely strong sense of security enveloping him.

However, Su Yuqing couldn't understand why Chen Mo was suddenly so nervous.

Just as Chen Mo was nervously protecting her and preparing to leave the room first.

Suddenly the power in the room was restored, and all the lights in the room turned on in an instant.

"Clap!"

Along with the room lights coming on, there was a young-looking couple holding firework tubes, standing not far from the door.

Suddenly, the two people facing the door turned the firework in their hands.

In an instant, a shower of beautiful fragments, like fireworks, rained down from above Chen Mo and Su Yuqing's heads.

"My dear son, welcome home~"

After the woman finished firing the firework, she threw down the barrel, pounced on Chen Mo, and pulled him into her arms.

Chen Mo was embraced tightly by his mother, Chen Xi, with a faint, elegant perfume scent lingering around his nose.

The father, Chen Miao, stood aside watching with a smile in his eyes.

Su Yuqing didn't realize what was happening until the ribbon fell into her hair, and she took a half-step back as if waking from a dream.

Chen Mo's parents looked younger than Su Yuqing had expected.

They seemed more like Chen Mo's older brothers and sisters than his parents.

Both of them are naturally good-looking, and they also pay attention to skincare. They don't have many worries in their lives, have a good mindset, eat well, and have a good lifestyle, so they naturally look even younger.

Both of them were nearly forty years old, but they looked like they were in their twenties.

So much so that when Su Yuqing saw them, she didn't dare to recognize them as Chen Mo's parents for a moment.

So the polite words that were about to be uttered couldn't be said for a moment.

After all, calling your two older brothers and sisters "uncle" and "aunt" is obviously not a well-received behavior.

"Okay, okay, I can't breathe anymore."

Enveloped by his mother's suffocating love, Chen Mo almost suffocated in his mother's chest.

He quickly struggled out of his mother's embrace, took a step back, and took a few deep breaths of fresh air.

"This must be Qingqing, right?" Chen Xi ignored the look of disgust on her son's face and immediately smiled as she turned her gaze to Su Yuqing, as if she were examining a treasure.

The girl was wearing a faded school uniform, with bits of ribbon still stuck to the ends of her hair, but her pretty face was still undeniable.

Her fingers unconsciously gripped the hem of her clothes, her fingertips turning a pale red from nervousness.

"Oh my, Qingqing is ten times prettier in person than in the photos Yuwei sent from the surveillance footage," Chen Xi praised Su Yuqing with a satisfied expression.

At this moment, Su Yuqing's heart trembled. A wave of shyness surged into her heart, but at the same time, she felt a natural sense of intimacy and closeness to Chen Mo's mother using the same term that her own mother would use to address her when she returned.

"Ah...Hello Auntie, hello Uncle." Su Yuqing looked bewildered, her little hands nervously clutching the hem of her clothes as she greeted the two of them tremblingly.

"Why call me 'Auntie'? Just call me 'Sister'. You and Momo can talk separately." Chen Xi smiled and stepped forward to put her arm around Su Yuqing.

She said this mainly because it was their first meeting, and she didn't want to give Su Yuqing the feeling of a junior meeting a senior. Sure enough, after she said that, Su Yuqing's tense mood immediately eased a lot.

Moreover, he gained a better understanding of Chen Xi, who was good at joking.

Chen Mo had a good upbringing, so Su Yuqing subconsciously imagined that his parents might be more particular about rules.

If I do something wrong, will they consider it breaking the rules?

So she was very nervous, afraid that she would do something wrong in front of Chen Mo's parents.

Until today, they appeared before my eyes.

Su Yuqing then realized that Chen Mo's parents were actually so kind and friendly, and extremely easy to get along with.

They have none of the airs or temper of elders.

"You know her really well, why did you call her Qingqing right away?" Chen Mo complained from the side.

"How could I not know my future daughter-in-law?" Seeing this brat dare to tease her, Chen Xi immediately retorted loudly.

Sure enough, as soon as he said that, Chen Mo blushed instantly, and Su Yuqing lowered her head shyly.

However, amidst her shyness, she felt inexplicably happy.

Although she knew that Chen Xi was probably just joking, it still seemed to prove that Chen Mo's parents still had a certain degree of approval for her.

Upon realizing this, Su Yuqing's heart immediately leaped with joy.

Chen Mo was speechless at his mother's words and couldn't think of a rebuttal for a moment. He could only snort and say, "You're back, so you deliberately turned off the power so I wouldn't receive any surveillance alerts, huh?"

Chen Mo immediately knew that his parents must have asked Dao Feng to do it.

"Isn't this to prepare a surprise for you? Aren't you happy to see your mom and dad suddenly appear in front of you?" Chen Xi gently put her arm around Su Yuqing and walked into the house, smiling as she looked at Chen Mo.

"I'm so happy, thank you for scattering so much trash in front of my house." Chen Mo glanced speechlessly at the colorful confetti scattered all over the ground.

"You're such a cheapskate. You could have just cleaned up this small area yourself. Compared to the surprise your parents prepared for you, it's nothing." Chen Xi said dismissively, pursing her lips.

Chen Miao laughed and said, "Alright, alright, you two always bicker whenever you meet. Can't you be a little more loving? Aren't you afraid Yuqing will laugh at you if she sees this?"

Hearing Chen Miao's words and seeing how Chen Mo and Chen Xi interacted just now, Su Yuqing couldn't help but smile.

She could almost picture Chen Mo and her mother playfully bickering in her mind.

The seamless, close-knit relationship between them, like that of best friends, was something Su Yuqing could never have dreamed of.

Chen Mo and Chen Xi glanced at Su Yuqing and then smiled at each other.

"How long are you staying this time?" Chen Mo asked the two of them, now looking more serious.

Having not seen his parents from their younger days for so long, Chen Mo was so moved by their sudden return that he almost cried.

That's why he used bickering and such as that as a way to forcefully suppress his urge to cry.

Chen Mo didn't know how long his parents would stay this time, and he wanted to fulfill his duty as a son to accompany them and take them sightseeing.

"We're planning to stay longer this time, since you'll be taking the college entrance exam soon. Your mother said she wants to stay and take care of you for a while," Chen Miao said with a smile, gently patting Chen Mo's back. (End of Chapter)
