Living in an apartment: Only children make choices.

"I'm just saying this," Zhou's father said, stroking his chin.

"Could it be a retired sprinter?"

Xia Sining shook her head and said.

"It shouldn't be..."

Mr. Zhou nodded and said.

"That's right, we're both sure to remember national-level sprinters."

"Could it be that there are truly hidden masters among ordinary people?"

That's right, Shanghai can be quite small sometimes. Rose's father, Zhou Guodong, is a first-class track and field coach in China.

He is a very famous figure in Shanghai's track and field circles, and he is the coach for many sprint champions' advancement.

The father is an economics professor, and the son is a track and field legend, which proves the saying "like father, like son".

As for Rose's mother, she was just an ordinary housewife, but she was anything but ordinary in appearance! And she had a very good personality.

Unlike women, men do not make excessive demands on their partners when their status and position improve.

Unless you really reach a level where you need to be well-matched in terms of social status, you'll still prefer to find a partner who is comfortable, young, and beautiful.

If physical appearance is acceptable, then inner beauty can also be a greater consideration.

Men, actually, sometimes have very simple requirements.

Just then, the door opened, and Rose tiptoed in.

Rose was visibly taken aback when she saw Xia Sining on the sofa.

"Sister Si Ning, what are you doing here?"

Zhou's father laughed and scolded.

"What kind of talk is that? Ningsi came here specifically to see me."

"But what about you? Why did you suddenly come back?"

Rose spoke first.

"Me..."

Is there a problem with me going home?

Mr. Zhou paused for a moment before speaking.

"Well, what you said makes sense."

"Honey, add two more dishes for lunch, our daughter is back!"

Zhou's mother responded from the kitchen, and then seemed to say something else.

However, the range hood was quite loud, and none of the three people in the living room could hear it clearly.

If you didn't hear me clearly, then it must be unimportant!

The three of them then sat on the sofa and chatted about everyday things.

Rose was incredibly frustrated during the conversation, but when she heard that Xia Si Ning wasn't staying for lunch, she finally felt relieved.

She secretly took out her phone and typed a few words to Lin Yun.

Rose: Honey, don't worry, she'll be leaving in ten minutes at most.

[Lin Yun: Who is it?]

Rose: An athlete my dad coached; we used to play together a lot when we were kids.

Lin Yun: OK!

Rose breathed a sigh of relief and happily looked up.

The next second, Xia Sining said with a smile.

"Alright, I'll stay and try my teacher's wife's cooking!"

Rose: "???"

Seeing that the situation had changed, Rose quickly took out her phone and started typing.

Rose: Honey, things have changed.

[Lin Yun: ???]

Rose: This guest isn't leaving; they want to stay for lunch.

[Lin Yun: Okay, then I'll go straight up.]

Rose: Oh? With another person here, I'm really worried something bad might happen. What if she interrupts our conversation and says something? That would make things even more complicated!

[Lin Yun: It's nothing. It's not like you're saying my uncle would have accepted me on the first try without her. I was already prepared to be kicked out (chuckles).]

Rose: Have confidence in yourself. I'll stand by you through thick and thin.

After putting down her phone, Rose spoke.

"Dad, my boyfriend is coming over to wish us a Happy New Year later."

Mr. Zhou nodded and said.

"Oh!"

"Si Ning, if you want to break into 13 seconds, you must improve your second half of the game."

"Your explosive power is strong, but your stamina is insufficient."

"In this regard..."

Xia Sining whispered a reminder.

“Coach, I think what Rose just said is more important.”

She said her boyfriend was coming soon.

"Father Zhou waved his hand and said."

"He's just a boyfriend, who would..."

"Wait! My boyfriend?!"

"Rose, when did you get a boyfriend?!"

"How come I never knew?"

"Honey, stop cooking and come here right now!!"

Zhou's mother quickly came out of the kitchen and asked in confusion.

"Why are you shouting so loudly? What's the matter?"

"That's what Mr. Zhou said."

Rose said she has a boyfriend.

"And they'll be here soon!"

"I'm so happy!" Zhou's mother said with delight.

"what?"

"real or fake?"

"Do you have any photos to show Mom? Did we prepare too little food?"

"I'll call the restaurant downstairs and have them send up two more dishes."

"Zhou's father turned his head and said."

"What would you like to order?"

"There was no warning at all, she just suddenly said her boyfriend was coming over?"

"My dear girl, you've truly lived up to your reputation – you're a force to be reckoned with until you finally unleash your talent!"

"That's what Zhou's mother said calmly."

"What's so surprising? Didn't we only tell our parents about our wedding when we were about to get married?"

"By the way, honey, tell us now, are you planning to get married?"

Before Rose could speak, Zhou's father interrupted her.

"What marriage? I don't agree!"

"I haven't even graduated from university yet, and I haven't even decided where I'll be working. Why would I get married!"

"Their kids are acting impulsively, and you, as a parent, are acting impulsively too!"

Rose offered some words of advice.

"Dad, we're not planning on getting married!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou's father immediately widened his eyes and said.

"You haven't thought about getting married?"

"If you don't want to get married, what future do the two of you have?"

"A man who lacks responsibility is not worth keeping, in my opinion..."

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Rose got up to open the door, silently repeating to herself.

“Honey, this is really hellish for you.”

When the door opened, there was no one there, but instead, gift boxes stacked higher than a person.

Lin Yun walked in, panting, carrying a pile of gifts.

"Rose, where did you put the things?"
