Are you suggesting I inherit three wives' households? I'll marry my eldest brother and bec

And so, after working at the company for a month, Ming Nianxi finally got a much-needed break.

She and Lu Boyi agreed to go back to her hometown together on the weekend to meet her parents.

Ming Nianxi had already informed her family in advance that she would bring her boyfriend home for the weekend.

These words greatly worried Ming's parents, who had originally planned to come directly to the city to check on the situation.

However, Ming Nianxi repeatedly dissuaded them, patting her chest to assure them that she was fine and that they could rest assured and wait at home.

Lu Boyi had long hoped to marry Ming Nianxi as soon as possible. He couldn't wait to marry the person he loved so much and cherish her.

A few days in advance, he kept asking Ming Nianxi, "Xi Xi, how many people are in your family? What are your relationships like with everyone?"

He asked detailed questions because he wanted to understand the situation so he could prepare the gift accurately.

After all, this was the first time meeting the parents, so he had to show his sincerity to reassure Ming Nianxi's parents that they could entrust their daughter to him.

So before Ming Nianxi could give any more instructions, he had already quietly prepared all the gifts, each one carefully chosen.

Early Saturday morning, just as dawn was breaking, Lu Boyi drove up to Ming Nianxi's building and called her to come down.

As soon as Ming Nianxi stepped outside and saw the car he was driving, she paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Why aren't you driving your old car?"

Lu Boyi smiled and ruffled her hair, his tone indulgent: "That car is parked downstairs. I thought this car would be more spacious and comfortable, and it would be more presentable to take you home."

Ming Nianxi sighed and rubbed her forehead, her tone leaving no room for argument: "Listen to me, drive the one you had before."

Lu Boyi didn't ask any further questions, his eyes full of obedience: "Okay, whatever you say. Get in the car, we'll go downstairs to change."

Ming Nianxi got into the car and watched as Lu Boyi skillfully turned the car around and drove towards the building where he lived.

After changing cars, she glanced at the trunk and was instantly shocked—it was packed full of gifts, leaving no room to move.

"You've spent so much again?" Ming Nianxi's tone was a little distressed, but also warm.

Lu Boyi glanced at her, a gentle smile playing on his lips: "Your parents raised my wife so well, it wasn't easy for them. To put their minds at ease about you marrying me, this little bit of sincerity is nothing."

"Who's your wife?!" Ming Nianxi said shyly.

Lu Boyi pulled Ming Nianxi along: "It seems my sincerity was still too little, otherwise you wouldn't have refused."

Ming Nianxi pursed her lips, a hint of tenderness in her eyes, and teased him deliberately, "How can you be so good to me? I'm afraid to take you out anymore, what if someone else snatches you away?"

Lu Boyi held her hand, the warmth of his fingertips seeping through her skin.

His tone was firm and domineering: "Don't worry, no one can take you away from me. You are the one I, Lu Boyi, have chosen."

In fact, Lu Boyi fell in love with Ming Nianxi at first sight when he first met her at the company.

It must be said that Ming Nianxi's appearance is very much to his liking; she is delicate and lively, with a resilient look in her eyes.

After spending more time together, he specifically learned about Ming Nianxi's resume—a graduate of Peking University with excellent grades, which was enough to show that she was exceptionally intelligent.

Looking at how she handles her work, she is calm and composed in the face of problems, and knows how to weigh the pros and cons.

They have their own principles and bottom lines, and are never weak-willed people who let others bully them.

Looking at Ming Nianxi as an individual, every aspect of her made Lu Boyi very happy.

As for Ming Nianxi's family not being well-off, this was not worth mentioning in Lu Boyi's eyes.

Compared to those wealthy families filled with infighting and complicated relationships, Ming Nianxi's family has no good-for-nothing siblings.

In the future, there will be no need to worry about promoting anyone.

All he needs to do is take good care of the two elderly people, which is a small, worry-free thing for him.

The drive from his hometown wasn't far, so Lu Boyi drove himself, with Ming Nianxi sitting in the passenger seat with him.

After driving for a while, Lu Boyi turned to look at her and softly suggested, "Xixi, do you want to learn to drive?"

Ming Nianxi paused for a moment, then pointed to herself and asked, "Me?"

Lu Boyi nodded, his tone serious: "Yes, you don't have to drive it in the future, but I think it's better if you learn it. In case I'm not around someday, it will be more convenient for you to travel by yourself."

Although she has a driver if she doesn't want to learn to drive, he feels that he would be better off.

Ming Nianxi smiled and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll go and learn it when we get back from our hometown."

Looking at her obedient appearance, Lu Boyi's heart melted completely, and he silently thought to himself: My wife is so good.

Less than half an hour into the drive, Ming Nianxi looked at Lu Boyi's profile as he focused on driving and asked softly, "Boyi, are you thirsty? Would you like some water?" As she spoke, she picked up the mineral water bottle next to her and unscrewed the cap.

Lu Boyi caught a glimpse of the water bottle she was holding, and his smile deepened: "You drink first, then give it to me when you're done."

"Okay." Ming Nianxi took two small sips, then held the water to his lips. Lu Boyi tilted his head slightly and took a few sips. The two's actions were natural and intimate.

After driving for a while, we were finally almost at Ming Nianxi's hometown town.

Lu Boyi looked at the bumpy, cracked cement road in front of him, and his lips twitched.

—Luckily, I listened to Xixi and drove the more durable car we had before. Otherwise, if I had driven the other car, I would have had to spend a lot of money on maintenance when I got back.

Seeing his knowing expression, Ming Nianxi smiled and teased, "Now you understand, right? I didn't just say I wanted you to change cars casually."

Lu Boyi nodded, reached out and ruffled her hair, his tone indulgent: "Yes, Xixi is so smart, she's so thoughtful."

Ming Nianxi stopped smiling and earnestly instructed, "One more thing, don't act too rich back in your hometown."

"Otherwise, if your relatives ask you for money, will you lend it or not? Especially for big things, once you start, it will never end and you'll be stuck with them."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "Although I don't have any biological brothers or sisters, I have a lot of cousins."

"When my dad worked at the police station, everyone got along quite well. But ever since he was injured and retired, those relatives who used to seem close have gradually drifted apart. You can tell at a glance whether someone is cold or warm-hearted."

Lu Boyi held her hand tenderly, squeezed it gently, and said softly, "Yes, I understand. After we get married, we'll bring your parents to Pengcheng so we can be closer to them and take good care of them."

Looking out at the dilapidated town, he thought to himself: The environment here is too bad, and the dust is too heavy. It is really not suitable for the two elderly people to live out their retirement. I must take them away as soon as possible.

Looking into his sincere eyes, Ming Nianxi nodded gently and softly replied, "Mm."
