Ming Nianxi's family lived in an apartment building in the small town. The car that Lu Boyi drove, worth two or three hundred thousand yuan, was already considered extremely expensive in the small town in 2005.

It's worth noting that Lu Boyi is only twenty-two years old this year, and he hasn't been out of college for long. The fact that he can drive such a car is enough to show that he is quite capable.

This car is already quite good for this small town.

There were so many gifts in the trunk that Ming Nianxi directed Lu Boyi to park the car.

Then he took out his phone and called his father: "Dad, come down and help me carry these things, there are too many, we can't carry them all."

Lu Boyi quickly grabbed her arm and said with a smile, "No need to trouble Uncle, I can make a couple more trips myself, it's not tiring."

Ming Nianxi shook her head, her tone slightly coquettish: "I don't want you to run, this is the fourth floor, it'll be tiring to run twice."

As the two were talking, Ming's father and mother hurriedly came downstairs.

Their faces were filled with tension, their hearts pounding with anxiety; their biggest fear was that their daughter would be scammed.

—Although my family is of modest means and doesn't have much money, my daughter is beautiful and smart, and I'm afraid she'll be bullied by people with ulterior motives.

The two elders were downstairs when they saw Lu Boyi standing next to the car, and they were instantly stunned.

Lu Boyi was dressed in a clean and neat black shirt and black pants. He was tall and straight, with handsome features and a calm demeanor. He was clearly not an ordinary person.

Ming's mother quietly tugged at Ming's father's sleeve, lowered her voice, and said with delight, "Dad, look at this young man, he's so strong, tall and handsome. Xixi has such good taste."

Ming's father coughed lightly, glared at her, and lowered his voice to remind her, "Be serious, don't be impolite, this is her first time visiting our home."

Lu Boyi quickly stepped forward, bowed slightly, and said respectfully and politely, "Uncle, Aunt, hello, I am Xixi's boyfriend, Lu Boyi."

Ming's mother had long since forgotten her worries and quickly replied with a smile, "Alright, alright, come in quickly, come in quickly, you must be tired from your journey."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and took the things from Ming Nianxi's hands, then secretly winked at Ming Nianxi and asked in a low voice, "Where did you find this child? He's so good-looking and lovable."

Although her voice wasn't loud, Lu Boyi heard it clearly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

Looking at his smile, Ming Nianxi felt a wave of helplessness and silently complained in her heart: "Damn it, you're supposed to be an accountant in the system, how can you be so impatient? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Ming's father also noticed Ming's mother's lapse in composure, smiled awkwardly, and said to Lu Boyi, "Please excuse her, she's just too happy."

Lu Boyi quickly shook his head: "No, Auntie is very kind, I don't mind."

Ming's father's gaze fell on the gifts in the trunk and the car, and he secretly wondered: Xixi's boyfriend must have a complicated background.

Looking at the gifts again, there were high-end cigarettes he didn't recognize, and Moutai liquor that he recognized at a glance.

In addition, there are expensive health products such as bird's nest and shark fin, filling the gift box to the brim. This must have cost a lot of money.

Do such wealthy families genuinely want to marry Xixi?

He used to work at the police station and had seen all kinds of people. He had heard that some rich men liked to spend money to trick young girls into becoming their mistresses.

Thinking of this, Ming's father's worries resurfaced, and his brows furrowed slightly.

The four people, carrying large and small bags of gifts, slowly walked upstairs.

As soon as Ming Nianxi opened the door, she was stunned—the living room was full of people, including her uncle and aunt, her eldest cousin, her second cousin, her third aunt, and her cousin.

Ming's mother quickly stepped forward to explain, "Your dad posted a notice at the supermarket entrance saying that we would be closed this weekend. When your grandma asked why, I told her that you were bringing your boyfriend home. I didn't expect them to come over, saying they wanted to come and see us."

Ming Nianxi understood instantly, feeling a sense of helplessness, and didn't say anything more.

At this moment, her aunt quickly greeted her with a smile, her gaze sweeping over Ming Nianxi.

He then looked behind her and asked with a smile, "Xixi, I heard you brought your boyfriend back? Where is he?"

Her eyes quickly swept over the gift in Ming's mother's hand, a barely perceptible glint of greed flashing in her eyes.

Lu Boyi followed Ming Nianxi in after her father and Ming Nianxi had entered the house. He was carrying several bags of gifts.

He was tall, almost as tall as the two-meter-high door of his house—Lu Boyi was 1.9 meters tall, and with leather shoes, he was a full 1.93 meters tall. The moment he stood there, his aura was completely different.

Everyone in the living room was stunned when they saw Lu Boyi, and no one spoke for a moment.

This young man is not only good-looking, but also has such a strong presence; he's clearly not an ordinary person.

Ming's father was the first to react, and quickly greeted him, "Xiao Lu, come in and sit down. You must be tired from your journey."

Lu Boyi smiled politely: "Thank you, Uncle. It's no trouble at all."

His gaze swept over everyone in the living room, and recalling the scene of Ming Nianxi returning to his home with him that day, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up again.

But that faint smile completely captivated his two cousins ​​from his aunt's family, who stared at him blankly, forgetting to even blink.

The Ming family's house was bought before Ming's father was injured.

It was probably in the early 1990s, and the house was over 90 square meters, making it the largest house in the neighborhood.

—Back then, the 90-plus square meters was a real area, with no extra shared area, making it seem exceptionally spacious. The living room alone was over 30 square meters.

Lu Boyi quietly walked to a separate stool and sat down, his posture humble and without any airs.

Ming Nianxi sat down next to him and introduced him to the relatives in the living room one by one. Lu Boyi stood up with a smile and greeted them politely, handling the situation perfectly.

All eyes remained fixed on the gifts they were carrying.

The elderly in my family don't recognize any high-end brands, but they can tell from the exquisite packaging that it must be expensive.

Putting everything else aside, they recognized those bottles of Moutai, and those bird's nests were all high-quality items that could only be seen on television.

Lu Boyi bought many boxes of each gift, which shows that he put a lot of thought into it.

As for how to divide it, he didn't care. He believed that Ming Nianxi knew what was going on and that any arrangement was fine.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the aunt spoke first, her tone slightly tentative: "Xixi, is this your boyfriend? He's so tall and handsome. By the way, Xiao Lu, which school did you graduate from?"

Lu Boyi spoke calmly, his tone even: "Harvard."

Unexpectedly, her aunt laughed upon hearing this, her tone somewhat dismissive: "Harvard? I know, isn't that a new car brand that just came out this year? Xixi, your boyfriend studies auto repair?"
