Li Haoyu saw that even Lingdang had been scolded.

He knew that staying silent this time would be fine.

Even Li Haoyu, who was meeting Xu Hongmi for the first time, could tell that she actually cared a lot about Xu Hongdou.

Xu Hongdou herself probably knew this perfectly well, but the two still argued every time they met.

Xu Hongmi widened her eyes and said, "Before I figure out where to bury you, you'd better apologize to me right now."

Then she held up her finger and started the countdown.

"5, 4..."

Haha, Li Haoyu watched from the side and chuckled.

This is so realistic!

So this is what it really looks like when sisters argue.

Watching this kind of entertainment is really fun.

As a result, Xu Hongdou completely deviated from the expected pattern and didn't even wait for Xu Hongmi to finish speaking.

She then held up her fingers and counted aloud: "3...2...1."

Xu Hongdou turned and left, which was quite dashing!

Just as Li Haoyu couldn't help but sigh, and Xu Hongdou was really tough.

Xu Hongmi didn't waste any words and immediately put her in a chokehold.

What are you doing? What are you doing?

Xu Hongdou resisted fiercely, saying, "Let me go! Do you admit your mistake?"

I don't acknowledge it, I simply don't acknowledge it.

To admit it or not, to admit it or not?

As Xu Hongmi spoke, she tickled Hongdou.

"Xu Hongmi, stop right now!"

Xu Hongdou addressed him by his first name directly.

Normally, people only call out someone's full name when they're really desperate.

Not to mention that Xu Hongdou would use commas to pause when she spoke, and would emphasize the last word.

They were clearly in a real hurry.

…………

This time, Li Haoyu also made a move, since Xu Hongdou was his wife.

Playing around is fine, but you should do the bullying yourself.

With a gentle nudge, the two separated.

Li Haoyu picked up Xu Hongmi's luggage and said, "It's getting late, let's talk again when we get back."

Xu Hongdou, clearly still unconvinced, said to Li Haoyu, "I was about to make a move just now. If you hadn't stopped me, I would have turned the tables long ago."

Xu Hongmi was getting impatient too: "Fine, fine, you think you're the best? Then let's go back and talk about it later."

Li Haoyu walked straight up to Xu Hongdou and took her hand: "It's perfect timing that your sister is here too. Today I'll cook a big meal for you all myself."

"So you're starting to show off again?"

Xu Hongdou glanced at Li Haoyu, a half-smile on her face.

"Of course, this is a rare opportunity. I have to show off my skills."

Li Haoyu patted his chest and said, "Besides, even if it weren't for you two adults, I couldn't let the little angel go hungry."

"Yes, I'm hungry, Uncle. I want a big meal."

Xu Hongdou and Xu Hongmi were both a little confused.

Li Haoyu had only spent a short time with Xiaolingdang, how come he's already calling her "auntie-in-law" so quickly?

Seeing the two's puzzled looks, Li Haoyu suddenly gave Xiaolingdang a thumbs-up from behind. Xiaolingdang understood and smiled.

The two have clearly formed a strategic alliance.

Li Haoyu arranged for Xu Hongmi and Xiao Dingdang to sit in the back seat.

Little Dingdang probably fell asleep as soon as he got to the back seat because of the long journey.

Just as Xu Hongdou said, Xu Hongmi can't let go of her work no matter where she goes.

To avoid waking Xiaolingdang, she put on headphones and used her iPad to hold a remote meeting with her subordinates.

Now it feels like it's just Xu Hongdou and Li Haoyu alone again.

Just then, Xu Hongdou quietly approached, "My sister's in a meeting with headphones on, and Xiaolingdang is asleep. Now can you tell me how you bribed Xiaolingdang?"

Li Haoyu rolled his eyes and said lazily, "Although she's young, she has her own values. Is it strange that she can appreciate my strengths?"

"I'm really not convinced by what you're saying."

"Say it or don't, that's all you're good for anyway. Just focus on driving."

"Haha, you broke down so easily?"

Li Haoyu was angered by how easily Xu Hongdou got angry.

He was too lazy to keep Xu Hongdou in suspense.

He leaned close to Xu Hongdou's ear and said, "Then come closer. I'm too lazy to keep you in suspense this time, I'll just tell you this little secret."

Li Haoyu breathed hot air into Xu Hongdou's ear.

She was tickled, but in order to unravel the mystery.

Xu Hongdou forced herself to listen, keeping her body stiff and tense.

Li Haoyu didn't do anything excessive.

This left Xu Hongdou, who had prepared herself mentally, disappointed.

Li Haoyu said directly, "Actually, it's not that complicated. Two chocolates will do the trick."

"It's that simple?"

Xu Hongdou said with a surprised look.

"Kids don't have that many tricks up their sleeves. Just give them something nice to eat and that'll be enough. Besides, your sister is usually too controlling, so she's even easier to bribe."

"Isn't this a perfectly normal thing?"

Li Haoyu casually agreed.

"By the way, why are you trying so hard to please my sister? Don't you know your own position? Why weren't you on my side when we were arguing earlier?"

Xu Hongdou suddenly remembered what had just happened and began to question Li Haoyu about his behavior.

"I'm not doing this for your sister's sake; I just don't want to lose face in front of my future in-laws. ׺°」˜`」°º× ׺°」˜`」°º× I want to talk about dating again; your parents probably already know."

Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment. "How is this possible? Even my sister just arrived. How could my parents at home know that we're dating?"

"I didn't tell them anything, how did they know?"

There's still an ending to come, so you can watch it later.

The title has been changed and replaced.

Xu Hongdou glanced at Xu Hongmi, who was having a meeting in the back seat.

Although she had some issues with Xu Hongmi, she was always very easygoing and probably wouldn't swear to her parents.

"Do you really need to tell me that yourself? Think about why your sister would travel all this way here for no reason at all."

"Go on, please continue."

After listening to Li Haoyu's words, Xu Hongdou seemed to understand a little, but she still couldn't figure it out.

"It's actually very simple. You're practically radiating happiness. Do you really think your parents are inexperienced lovers?"

"Your two-faced behavior is something your parents already did back then, otherwise how could they have given birth to you and Xu Hongmi?"

Li Haoyu spoke in a tone that seemed perfectly natural.

Xu Hongdou was at a loss for words.

There's actually some truth to that. Xu Hongdou recalled when she and Li Haoyu had just confirmed their relationship a while ago, and it seemed that it was probably... really quite obvious.

Xu Hongdou: ...

If Li Haoyu's analysis is correct, then the mastermind behind this must be Dad. Even if Xu Hongmi knows that Xu Hongdou is in a relationship, she's not the type to meddle in other people's business.

Ever since her older sister Xu Hongmi got married, her father has focused all his attention on her, urging her to find a boyfriend as soon as possible.

On the contrary, my mom has always been quite laid-back.

Especially after Xu Hongdou resigned from the hotel, she had secretly told her mother about it.

At that time, Xu Hongdou and Li Haoyu were not very close, and it was too painful for her to have so many worries but not be able to tell them.

So she revealed the whole story about her resignation.

To Xu Hongdou's surprise, her traditionally conservative mother did not object.

They even encouraged Xu Hongdou to go out and play for a few more days, saying there was no need to rush back.

She still hasn't forgotten what her mother said to her back then.

Her mother said, "I was wrong before, always comparing you to your sister. It was my fault, and I apologize."

"You two are both excellent children, and we, the two of us, are retired and still have some savings. If all else fails, you still have your sister. So just go out and have fun without worry, we will always be your strongest support."

That conversation truly gave Xu Hongdou a strong sense of security and confidence.

That's why Xu Hongdou decided to take a gamble and even ridiculously agreed to travel with Li Haoyu.

But only a short time later, her parents found out she had a boyfriend.

It seems they must be in a hurry, even managing to send the workaholic Xu Hongmi here to scout out the enemy's situation.

This shows just how much effort they put into achieving it.

Xu Hongdou felt a headache coming on as she thought about this.

It wasn't far from here to begin with. Li Haoyu quickly escorted Xu Hongmi to the breezy courtyard.

When Xu Hongmi and Xiaolingdang arrived in the room.

Xu Hongdou turned her anger towards Li Haoyu, saying, "This is all your fault. If it weren't for you, my sister wouldn't be here."

"I don't think this is a big problem for me."

Li Haoyu said tactfully, "Is it possible that even without me, your sister will come back to see you? After all, you've been out for so long."

Xu Hongdou glanced inside again. "You still won't admit it?"

"I need to go get ready!"

Seeing that things were going wrong, Li Haoyu decided to run away.

"Don't go! Give me a solution!"

"Well, even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her in-laws eventually. How about I go home with you to visit them? With my personal charm, all the problems should be solved."

"I see." Xu Hongdou nodded knowingly.

Do you agree?

Li Haoyu was actually a little surprised at this moment. Didn't Xu Hongdou say anything in rebuttal?

This is clearly not Xu Hongdou's style!

Seeing Xu Hongdou's calm expression, Li Haoyu couldn't help but ask, "Shouldn't you say something?"

"No, I think your suggestion is actually quite good."

Xu Hongdou waved her hand dismissively.

"Alright, weren't you going to show off your cooking skills? What are you wasting your time on here?"

Xu Hongdou saw that Li Haoyu was standing still.

She then pointed to the vegetable market on the side of the road and said, "I'll go buy you some fresh vegetables, and the rest is up to you."

Li Haoyu looked at Xu Hongdou seriously and said, "If you think I'm too anxious, that's fine. You can just say so."

"I was just teasing you, you didn't need to retaliate like that!"

"Who told you I would joke about something like this? I'm serious. If you want, I'm willing to introduce you to my parents."

Xu Hongdou shook her head and said.

This made Li Haoyu scratch his head.

Just as he was about to say something, Little Bell, who had just woken up, became active again.

This is why children are full of energy and their recovery ability is actually much stronger than that of most young people.

Little Bell bounced around and hugged Xu Hongdou's waist.

"I never expected that in just a few days, you would find me an uncle."

She said excitedly.

Xu Hongdou felt a little embarrassed by what was said to her.

But turning back, she couldn't help but nod. "I already know. You actually sold me out for two pieces of chocolate. I'm so worthless."

Little Bell was a little shy and embarrassed to look at Xu Hongdou.

Seeing this, she took Xiaolingdang's hand and said to Li Haoyu, "From now on, we need to buy not only chocolate, but also at least a few ice creams."

Only then did Little Bell show her smile again.

Li Haoyu then stuffed all the remaining chocolates he had into his pocket.

He added mysteriously, "I just saw your mom seem to be almost done with her meeting. Hurry up and eat this to destroy the evidence. Even if you can't finish it, you have to hide it, otherwise you know your mom's temper best."

Li Haoyu hadn't finished speaking, but Xiaolingdang nodded rapidly.

She then skipped away, probably to hide the chocolate.

Xu Hongdou saw how happy Xiaolingdang was.

She couldn't help but say, "You're even fooling little kids like this now."

Li Haoyu said with a smug smile, "Is there anything wrong with what I said? Your sister is even scarier than I described. Just now, someone was choked and couldn't even speak."

Xu Hongdou said, "How can that be the same? It's like asking a person to compete with a bull in strength. I'm definitely not as strong as her. You and my sister just have brute force."

Li Haoyu glared at Xu Hongdou, annoyed. "Don't just throw around brute force all the time, okay? If I were really a bull, would you be the barren black soil I've been cultivating?"

"Well……"

Xu Hongdou was instantly speechless.

She's really shot herself in the foot. She may have gained a small advantage, but now she's ended up getting herself into trouble.

So Xu Hongdou blinked and changed the subject.

"Alright, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Li Haoyu smiled and said, "I can ignore what you said earlier, but I'm still very interested in what you said before. Can I really meet your parents?"

Xu Hongdou smiled, but didn't want to pay any attention to Li Haoyu.

Li Haoyu didn't give up: "The Xu Hongdou I remember isn't a woman who talks nonsense. So you have to take responsibility for what you said."

Xu Hongdou pouted, "Sure, but I haven't agreed to take things any further. It's just meeting once, it won't hurt me."

"What's there to be afraid of? Besides, my parents also get to enjoy the gifts that come to their door, so why not?"

At this moment, Li Haoyu felt a warmth in his heart.

Even though Xu Hongdou was so stubborn, she still agreed.

This shows my position in her heart.

Li Haoyu immediately suggested, "Why wait for them? Let's book tickets now and go see them tomorrow."

Xu Hongdou shook her head and said, "I agree, but you have to at least get my sister on your side first!"

"Besides, you're the one who made this boast. If you can't deliver, don't blame me."

"Haha, you don't need to worry about that. Your man is quite capable in this area."

"Just watch me play like a god."
