Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

In July, it was time for Han University to begin its summer vacation.

After finishing the exam, Chu Shijun and Pei Qianqian went to Shanghai together as planned, intending to spend two days there.

At this time, Shanghai was riding the wave of reform and opening up. Its commercial prosperity and traditional features coexisted, making it a benchmark for national development. In some places, one could already see the shadow of a future international metropolis.

Chu Shijun and Pei Qianqian walked hand in hand down the street, looking at the people and customs around them, feeling a little refreshed.

Pei Qianqian had never been here before. Although Chu Shijun had seen the Shanghai of later generations, this was the first time he had ever seen a Shanghai with a sense of history. It was much more realistic than the one in the TV series.

"Shijun, their skirts are so short," Pei Qianqian whispered as she leaned closer.

Chu Shijun glanced at it upon hearing this. It wasn't short at all; it almost reached his knees. However, dressed like this in other places, especially in the Northwest, would certainly make one the most stylish person in the crowd. Even here, some older people wouldn't accept it. (This is from research; I didn't go to that era when I traveled back in time.)

Scanning the crowd, Chu Shijun's gaze precisely landed on a young woman wearing mid-calf stockings, and his eyes lit up.

"hiss"

After my eyes finished looking at it, my back started to hurt.

Seeing the displeasure on Pei Qianqian's face, Chu Shijun didn't hesitate. After glancing at the surrounding shops, he pulled her straight to a large shopping mall in the distance, the Huating Road Shopping Mall. (The information said it was there.)

When she came out, Pei Qianqian was no longer dissatisfied. Her earlobes were pink, and she cursed Chu Shijun inwardly for being shameless. She would never wear such clothes, yet he bought so many, saying they were consumables.

However, things often don't go according to our wishes.

Pei Qianqian did indeed demonstrate initiative and became a general.

Afterwards, the two spent a few more days in Shanghai, buying a lot of things, before preparing to leave.

This time, the two of them will go back together to Linjiang Province.

Helping Pei Qianqian, whose legs were a little weak, onto the plane, she immediately covered her face with her clothes and fell into a deep sleep after sitting down.

She's been so tired from traveling these past few days, working day and night, she needs to get some rest.

Seeing this, Chu Shijun smiled smugly; he was still full of energy.

This fully demonstrates the importance of daily exercise and how important it is to have a healthy body.

……

In the evening, the two got off the plane.

A shuttle bus drove up from a distance, with a sign on it displaying the two people's surnames.

After picking up the two, they went directly through a special passage and arrived at a Toyota Crown with the license plate number Lin 0-00002, which was Lao Pei's car.

The driver was a middle-aged man in his forties with a square face and a buzz cut.

"Qianqian".

"Uncle Wang."

Pei Qianqian greeted him with a smile, "Shijun, this is Wang Qihua, Uncle Wang. You can call him that just like me."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qihua sized up Chu Shijun, his gaze scrutinizing him. Seeing that Chu Shijun was dignified and full of energy, Wang Qihua nodded secretly and said with a smile, "Hello, Shijun."

He drove for Pei Yihong for over ten years, almost always following him wherever he went. He also watched Pei Qianqian grow up.

Now that Pei Qianqian has found a boyfriend, he has to see what kind of character she has. But it seems that she can be at ease under his gaze, which is good.

You have to understand, he's a veteran of the battlefield, he has a guilty conscience. If you let him keep an eye on you, you'll panic.

"Hello, Uncle Wang."

"Okay, let's go, get in the car. The governor knew you were coming back today, so he went straight home after work. Usually at this time, he'd still be in his office." Wang Qihua nodded and said with a smile.

Once in the car, Wang Qihua started the engine and drove smoothly out of the airport onto the highway.

"Uncle Wang, how is my dad's mood today?"

In the car, Pei Qianqian said expectantly.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qihua glanced at the rearview mirror, shook his head, and reminded him, "The governor seems a bit unhappy. Your daughter never comes home immediately when she's on vacation, and she's been having a long face at meals these past two days."

"Oh no, what happened? I went to buy him a gift this time!"

Pei Qianqian pouted and reached out to grasp Chu Shijun's hand. "Don't be afraid, I'm here. My dad won't do anything to you."

Chu Shijun glanced at Wang Qihua's slightly twitching lips, then at Pei Qianqian who was cheering him on, and nodded silently.

It seems that Lao Pei is in a good mood and won't make things difficult for his son-in-law, right?

wrong!

Chu Shijun suddenly remembered that Pei Qianqian's legs were still a little weak, so he had to be careful later.

……

A dozen minutes later, the car entered the provincial party committee's residential compound, which is where the provincial party committee leaders live.

Pei Yihong, as the provincial governor, lived in Building No. 2.

As soon as the car stopped, a middle-aged woman in a long dress with shoulder-length short hair stepped out. She looked somewhat like Zhou Yuqiong, but she was younger.

This is Pei Qianqian's mother, Zhou Yuwen.

"Mother!"

After getting out of the car, Pei Qianqian called out sweetly and ran over to greet her.

However, as she was running, her legs suddenly gave way, but fortunately Zhou Yuwen caught her.

"You silly girl, can't you be more careful..."

Zhou Yuwen's face was full of doting, but when she caught a glimpse of her daughter's rosy complexion and the allure in her eyes, and remembered how her legs had gone weak just now, she glared at her daughter with annoyance and said in a low voice, "A young lady like you should be more careful. Walk slowly when you go inside."

Pei Qianqian blushed and nodded hesitantly, clearly realizing what had happened.

"Auntie, I am Chu Shijun."

Chu Shijun, carrying his luggage, came forward to greet him respectfully.

They're young after all.

Seeing Chu Shijun strutting around with an imposing air, Zhou Yuwen nodded and said gently, "Shijun is here. You are indeed a handsome man. Qianqian and her aunt have been praising you to the skies. Today I can finally meet you in person. Come on, let's go inside."

It's all settled; there are no problems with my mother-in-law's side.

Pei Qianqian linked arms with Zhou Yuwen and walked into the house with small steps, turning back to wave her little fist to encourage him.

We went inside.

A dignified-looking middle-aged man was sitting on the sofa to the right, reading a book. He didn't react when he heard the door open.

"Daddy, your darling daughter is back!"

Pei Qianqian ignored Zhou Yuwen's instructions and ran over excitedly.

"Ha, I don't have a precious daughter who doesn't come home even when she's on vacation."

Despite saying that, Pei Yihong still put down his book, and when he saw that his daughter was as lively and cheerful as ever, a smile appeared on his face.

"Yi Hong, this is Shi Jun."

Zhou Yuwen chimed in.

Upon hearing this, Pei Yihong turned her head, her smile fading, and looked calmly at Chu Shijun. (Image attached)

Is this the gaze of a father-in-law?

To put it bluntly, Chu Shijun had never been this nervous before, not even when facing Li Zhiguo and the others.

"Hello, Uncle, I am Chu Shijun."

Chu Shijun suppressed his nervousness and stepped forward respectfully.

"Um."

After a full three seconds, Pei Yihong finally responded, then glanced at the mother and daughter, stood up and said, "Prepare dinner. Shijun, come to the study with me."

"come on!"

Pei Qianqian waved her little fist.

"Go ahead without worry, Old Pei is very satisfied with you," Zhou Yuwen whispered.

Pei Yihong, who had already gone upstairs, did not hear anything; the mother and daughter had revealed everything about him.
