My buildings have attributes

"Chen Ling, how did we get together?" After getting back into the car, Li Lili suddenly wanted to know how they got together. So she asked Chen Ling.

However, when Chen Ling heard this, he didn't know how to answer. How did he and Li Lili get together? He didn't know what to say, so he said to Li Lili, "When two people like each other, they naturally get together."

"When did we start dating? Did we get together right after graduation?" Li Lili was very curious about their current relationship.

"No, it was a long time after graduation before we got together. Okay, don't think about these things anymore. You'll know when your memory comes back. Right now, when you have nothing to do, think about us now," Chen Ling said, changing the subject.

After hearing Chen Ling's words, Li Lili looked out the window. Her thoughts drifted far away, filled with many things. Just then, Chen Ling spoke again. "What are you thinking about? I've been calling you for so long and you didn't answer. We're at the company." Li Lili only reacted after hearing Chen Ling's voice. "You're here so quickly?" Li Lili looked out the window and then said.

Chapter 212 The Eve of the Confession

"You go up first, I'll go park the car." Chen Ling pinched Li Lili's cheek and spoke to her gently.

"Okay." Li Lili went upstairs immediately.

"Goddess Shen, I was just looking for you. I have something to tell you." As soon as Li Lili arrived at the company, Liu Yuyang came to find her.

"Oh, what's wrong?" Li Lili asked quickly upon seeing this. Liu Yuyang came over, grabbed Li Lili's arm, and walked to the side. After whispering a few words, Li Lili laughed and gave him an OK sign. Just then, Chen Ling, who had just returned from the car, said to Liu Yuyang, "Liu Yuyang, come to my office." Chen Ling had just come upstairs when he saw Liu Yuyang and Li Lili laughing and talking very closely. His jealousy flared up, so he immediately called Liu Yuyang to his office.

"When did you two become this close? I just introduced you two yesterday," Liu Yuyang said, revealing his helplessness.

"Look at you, so petty! You only said a few words and you're already waiting for me here. Sigh, I can't talk to you anymore. I was just telling her my private matters," Liu Yuyang said helplessly. "How could you have private matters? What are they? And you went to tell her?" Chen Ling's curiosity grew even more after hearing this, so he quickly asked again.

"Didn't you encourage me to confess to Chen Mengyao yesterday? I just told Goddess Shen about it and asked her to arrange a date with Chen Mengyao today. I'm planning to confess tonight," Liu Yuyang explained. "Haha, you've finally come to your senses!" Chen Ling said awkwardly after hearing this, feeling embarrassed about his actions. "Alright, stop talking to me. I want to go and make some arrangements first," Liu Yuyang said slowly.

"Okay, then go ahead! Do you need my help?" Chen Ling quickly told Liu Yuyang to leave as soon as he saw the situation. He wanted to end this awkward moment as soon as possible, realizing how childish he had been. "No need, I can go by myself. You can just take Goddess Shen there!" Liu Yuyang said as he turned and left.

As soon as Liu Yuyang left, he headed towards the hotel, intending to decorate the room nicely to surprise Chen Mengyao. However, after Liu Yuyang left, Chen Ling was secretly overjoyed, thinking to himself, "This girl has finally found her true love." Just then, Chen Ling called Li Lili in. "What's wrong? Jealous?" Li Lili asked with a smile as she entered the office. She was beaming with sweetness, displaying the demeanor of a young woman. "Yes, I'm jealous. You're not allowed to get so close to other men in the future," Chen Ling said domineeringly.

"You're such a cheapskate, what's wrong with you!" Li Lili shook her head and said to Chen Ling. Although her face showed disdain, she was happy inside. Seeing how much Chen Ling liked her made her naturally delighted. "I heard from Liu Yuyang that he wants you to help him get rid of Chen Mengyao? What are you going to do?" Chen Ling naturally wanted to help Liu Yuyang, so he asked anxiously.

"That's simple, I'm planning... Why are you so concerned?" Li Lili originally wanted to tell Chen Ling her thoughts, but then she thought, what does this have to do with Chen Ling? So she said to Chen Ling instead. "How can it not concern me? Liu Yuyang is my best friend. Besides, don't you need my help tonight?" Chen Ling remembered that Liu Yuyang had just asked him to bring Li Lili over, so why hadn't Li Lili included him in her plans?

“Oh dear, you don’t need to go. I was planning to tell Chen Mengyao that we had a fight, and I’m feeling down. I wanted her to keep me company. What would I say if you went?” Li Lili said, seeing that things were going well. “Ah, yes, then how about this? I’ll go first. I’m worried about you being there alone.” Chen Ling added. Li Lili nodded after hearing this. Just then, both Chen Ling and Li Lili’s phones rang. It was a WeChat message from Liu Yuyang, who sent the hotel’s location. Li Lili and Liu Yuyang looked at each other and then laughed.

"Okay, the location has been sent. I'll go check it out first," Chen Ling thought, deciding to head over since there wasn't much going on at the company. Just then, Chen Ling's phone rang again; it was Liu Yuyang calling. "What's up, bro?" Chen Ling answered immediately. "Haha, you'd better come help me out. I don't think I can finish this myself; it's taking more time than I expected!"

Liu Yuyang spoke slowly. "That's exactly what I was thinking!" Chen Ling had just said he was about to go over when Liu Yuyang called. Then he heard Liu Yuyang say, "No need for thanks, come on over, brother." After Chen Ling hung up, Li Lili said, "You wanted me to go over first, right? Go ahead, I'll head out." Li Lili then prepared to leave. After Li Lili left, Chen Ling prepared to set off; his brother's life-long event couldn't be taken lightly. A short while later, Chen Ling arrived at the location Liu Yuyang had indicated, and heard Liu Yuyang say, "So fast? Lightning fast!" "Haha, of course I've taken your matter to heart!" Chen Ling said, already starting to help Liu Yuyang. Seeing so much work ahead, Chen Ling thought he should finish quickly.

"You're here! You're really fast!" Liu Yuyang looked at the things in the room, impressed by the speed. "Of course, you know who I am," Chen Ling said smugly. "By the way, you and Goddess Shen seem to be getting along quite well now! I feel she's much gentler than before!" Liu Yuyang recounted his interactions with Li Lili over the past few days, noting how much she had changed.

"We've been doing really well lately. During the time she had no memory of us, we got along quite well. She even asked about our past yesterday, and I didn't know how to tell her. Luckily, we got to the company and ended the conversation, otherwise, how could we have gotten back together? There were so many other reasons involved, and I really didn't know how to tell her." Chen Ling slowly recounted his relationship with Li Lili, thinking about what happened yesterday.

Chapter 213 Liu Yuyang Finds a Partner

After hearing this, Liu Yuyang thought about what had just happened between them and said, "It's too awkward. Let's not talk about it anymore and just let things take their course!" Chen Ling and Liu Yuyang chatted about their relationship for a while longer, and before long, time had passed. "We're leaving now."

Soon it was time to leave work, and Li Lili texted Chen Ling. "They're about to leave," Chen Ling replied to Liu Yuyang after seeing Li Lili's message.

“Then we need to speed things up. They can get here from the company in less than thirty minutes.” Liu Yuyang said, wanting to expedite the process. “Let’s stop chatting and focus on the work,” Chen Ling agreed. So the two of them began working on the tasks, eager to finish as quickly as possible.

After all, the female lead was about to arrive. So, Chen Ling and Liu Yuyang busied themselves for a while, and Liu Yuyang finished. Then Chen Ling said to Liu Yuyang, "How was it? Brother, wasn't I reliable? You confessed your feelings, and I panicked like this. If I propose to you later, you'll have to…" Before Chen Ling could finish, Liu Yuyang interrupted him, "Don't worry, I know, I understand."

They chatted for a while longer before Li Lili and Chen Mengyao arrived. Upon hearing the knock, Liu Yuyang and Chen Ling quickly turned off the lights. Just then, Chen Ling slipped to the side while Liu Yuyang went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Chen Mengyao saw Liu Yuyang inside. Before Liu Yuyang could speak, Chen Mengyao turned to Li Lili and asked, "Ningxue, what's going on? What's he doing here?" Li Lili looked at Liu Yuyang upon hearing this. "Come in first and we'll talk!" Liu Yuyang quickly said.

"What would I do in the dark?!" Chen Mengyao, completely unaware of what was going on, said helplessly. She had no idea what was happening inside; it was a surprise Liu Yuyang had meticulously prepared for her. "Come in!" Liu Yuyang pulled Chen Mengyao inside, and Li Lili followed, closing the door behind them.

At that moment, Chen Ling, who was standing on Yi's side, turned on the lights for the items in the room.

The entire room was bathed in a warm, golden light. Before Chen Mengyao's eyes was a room full of stars, each radiating a gentle glow. The path in front of her was carpeted with roses. On the balcony, roses were arranged in a heart shape. At that moment, Chen Mengyao was stunned. There were only four people in the room; Li Lili had brought her there. She naturally assumed all this was prepared for her, but she never imagined it was Liu Yuyang who had done it for her. Seeing all this, before Liu Yuyang could say anything, tears welled up in Li Lili's eyes.

"Silly girl, I haven't even confessed yet, why are you making that face?" Liu Yuyang rushed over to Chen Mengyao and said anxiously. "It's nothing," Chen Mengyao said after calming herself down.

"Chen Mengyao, be my girlfriend! Although I was a bit reckless before, I won't be like that anymore. Actually, I liked you the first time I saw you, but you acted like you didn't need me, which made me afraid to get close to you. I was afraid that if I said what I really wanted to say, we wouldn't even be able to be friends anymore. But my feelings for you are clearly the kind that I'm not willing to be just friends with, so I don't want to continue being friends with you. Be my girlfriend! I promise I'll treat you well from now on. Whether you need me or not, I'll be there for you. If you're unhappy, I'll cheer you up. Be my girlfriend! Okay?" Liu Yuyang said the words he had been holding in his heart for a long time with unwavering determination.

All three of them turned their attention to Chen Mengyao. However, Chen Mengyao's first reaction already revealed her true feelings. She naturally liked Liu Yuyang too, but given his playboy lifestyle, she hadn't really thought he could ever settle down for her.

Today, at this time, the person she likes confessed his feelings to her, and she was naturally overjoyed. This is probably the happiest thing in the world when it comes to relationships: I like you, and you sincerely love me in return. Mutual affection—that's probably the most beautiful phrase!

Just then, Liu Yuyang, seeing Chen Mengyao remain silent, anxiously asked, "What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything? Don't worry, I can change. Tell me, what's wrong with me? What don't you like about me? I'll change it all, starting right now." Liu Yuyang said to Chen Mengyao with great conviction.

"No, you're very nice..." Chen Mengyao had barely started speaking when Liu Yuyang panicked. "Don't give me the 'friend card,' are you just rejecting me like this?" Upon hearing Chen Mengyao's words, Liu Yuyang's mind was filled with thoughts of his failed confession. Chen Mengyao didn't like him.

At that moment, Chen Mengyao spoke again, saying, "Fool, let me finish. If you are really willing to change your problem down there and cut off your harem, I am naturally willing."

Chen Mengyao was a very intelligent woman. After calming her inner joy, she spoke calmly. She knew that in love, if she wanted to take the lead, she had to start from the beginning. She couldn't let Liu Yuyang think she was easy to talk to. She knew she liked him too, but she couldn't show it. Otherwise, as they spent more time together, their positions might quickly change. After all, women often act impulsively in love, so she wanted to stay calm and rational to secure a good position in the relationship.

However, Liu Yuyang's expression immediately changed upon hearing this. "Does this mean you agree? That's great! You're my girlfriend now! Chen Mengyao is my girlfriend!" At first, Liu Yuyang couldn't believe it, but he became more and more excited as he spoke, eventually hugging Chen Mengyao and repeatedly shouting, "Chen Mengyao is my girlfriend!"

The two third wheels, quite observant, quietly slipped away after Liu Yuyang's successful confession. Liu Yuyang and Chen Mengyao, still basking in the excitement of their newfound romance, remained oblivious to their departure. Much, much later...

Chapter 214 Marriage?

After Chen Ling and Li Lili came out, they heard Li Lili's voice. "Chen Ling, did you go to such lengths to confess your feelings to me back then?" Upon hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling was momentarily speechless. He didn't know how to answer her question. Then he heard Li Lili say, "It doesn't matter if we didn't. It's enough that two people who like each other can be together." Li Lili spoke from the bottom of her heart; she was content just to be with Chen Ling.

She didn't know when it started, but she had become so dependent on Chen Ling. "Do you like it this way? I'll give it to you when I propose, okay?" Chen Ling said after hearing Li Lili's words.

Hearing Chen Ling's words, Li Lili felt content. She had always been content with Chen Ling. For her, Chen Ling's love for her was enough!

Then Chen Ling said, "Following me has made you suffer." Chen Ling's words came from the bottom of his heart. He thought back to the beginning when he didn't want to get married and ignored Li Lili's feelings, and gave her the cold shoulder for several days for no reason.

Upon hearing Liu Yuyang's words, Li Lili became anxious and said, "What do you mean I'm being wronged? I'm not wronged at all. I think it's fine. If you think I'm being wronged, then treat me well." After saying this, Li Lili stared intently at Chen Ling. At that moment, Chen Ling's heart was in turmoil. He secretly vowed to himself that he must treat Li Lili well and not let her down.

Just then, Chen Ling was about to take Li Lili out for dinner when he heard his mother's anxious voice. His phone rang; it was his mother calling.

"Chen Ling, where are you? Come back quickly." Chen Ling had never seen his mother so anxious before, so he quickly replied, "What's wrong? What happened?" "Come back first, we'll talk when you get back, hurry up."

After Chen's mother hung up the phone, Chen Ling said to Li Lili, "Hurry home, I don't know why, but my mom is in a hurry for us to go back." "Okay." Li Lili nodded and hurriedly followed Chen Ling home. Not long after, Chen Ling and Li Lili arrived home.

When Chen Ling got home, he saw Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran there. Seeing their serious expressions, Chen Ling grabbed Li Lili's hand and hurried towards the living room. "What's wrong, Mom and Dad? What happened?" Chen Ling asked anxiously. Just then, Chen's mother glanced at Chen Xiaoqi and said, "Your sister is getting married." Chen Ling and Li Lili were utterly stunned by this news.

To Li Lili, Chen Xiaoqi was still a stranger; she hadn't even had a chance to get to know her. She had only heard from Chen's mother that Chen Ling had a younger sister. For Chen Ling, however, it was even more unexpected. He had been busy with Li Lili's affairs lately and hadn't contacted Chen Xiaoqi in a long time. The same was true for Li Ran; they had spoken on the phone recently about a hospital project, but they hadn't discussed anything personal. So why, upon meeting again, did he hear about their upcoming marriage?

"Chen Ling, Xiao Qi is pregnant." Li Ran looked at the surprised Chen Ling and said slowly. Chen Ling had thought of this when he heard the news of their marriage. Otherwise, why would they get married? But even if he was very satisfied with Li Ran as his brother-in-law, he didn't want to marry off his sister so soon! So Chen Ling said, "You want to marry my sister so soon? I'm not ready for this yet."

When Chen Ling's parents heard her words, they naturally shared the same thought. They wanted to urge Chen Ling to get married, but things had backfired and they ended up marrying off their daughter. Besides, Chen Xiaoqi's career was currently on the rise, and she had recently had some friction with her company because of her public announcement of her relationship. If they were to talk about marriage now, the company would have to terminate her contract.

Then they heard Mr. Chen's words, and he said, "I also don't want my daughter to marry off so early." Mr. Chen only said this one sentence before turning and leaving. At that moment, Mrs. Chen also sighed and left the living room, following Mr. Chen. "Li Ran, I don't know what to say to you," Chen Ling said helplessly, unsure of what to do.

Chen Xiaoqi looked at Li Lili pitifully and said, "Sister-in-law." Li Lili was clearly startled by Chen Xiaoqi's address and didn't know how to respond for a moment. "Ningxue, this is Xiaoqi. She always called you sister-in-law. Xiaoqi, Ningxue was in a car accident a while ago and lost her memory. Didn't Mom tell you?" Chen Ling first introduced Chen Xiaoqi to Li Lili, and then asked Chen Xiaoqi. "She did, but I like her too." Chen Xiaoqi said to Chen Ling with a grin. Then she turned to Li Lili, "Sister-in-law, please put in a good word for me. My parents just won't say anything, and I don't know what to do." Chen Xiaoqi looked at Li Lili with pitiful eyes.

Seeing this, Li Lili didn't know what to say. After all, this was a family matter. She already felt embarrassed staying at Chen Ling's house, and it would be inappropriate to express her opinions about someone else's home. So Li Lili said, "Don't be sad. Your uncle and aunt didn't say they disagreed. Don't worry, they've probably softened their stance. At this point, you should get Li Ran's family to come over. After what happened, your uncle and aunt naturally wouldn't be happy if they didn't show up."

Upon hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Xiaoqi suddenly realized what was going on and said to Li Ran, "That's right, then have your parents come over and discuss the wedding." Li Ran nodded in agreement, but he was reluctant to have them come. After all, they hadn't been convinced yet, and what if his own parents came and Chen Xiaoqi's family still disagreed? But he had no other choice but to give it a try.

"Alright, just thinking about it makes me angry. My sister is in the prime of her life, and she's getting married already? I'm furious." Chen Ling said angrily, looking at Li Ran. He never expected things to turn out this way, and he truly felt sorry for Chen Xiaoqi.

For a woman in the entertainment industry, whose career is just starting out and who hasn't yet established herself, if she were to have a family and children, her future situation would be predictable.

Chapter 215 The Chen Family's Stance

Seeing Chen Ling's state, Li Lili didn't know what to say. She felt that from Chen Xiaoqi's perspective, marriage now wouldn't be beneficial for her. However, as a mother, she certainly couldn't ask Chen Xiaoqi to abandon her child. Ultimately, it all came down to Chen Xiaoqi's thoughts; the one who truly made the decisions was Chen Xiaoqi herself. No matter how many ideas they had, they couldn't sway Chen Xiaoqi. She had her own independent thoughts, and others could only offer her advice.

After Chen Ling left, Li Lili said to Li Ran, "I want to talk to Xiao Qi alone." Seeing this, Li Ran readily agreed. Just then, Li Lili led Chen Xiao Qi back to her room. As soon as they entered, Li Lili asked softly, "Xiao Qi, have you thought it through? Are you really going to get married?"

When Chen Xiaoqi heard Li Lili's question, she was momentarily at a loss for words. She touched her stomach, wondering if she had really thought it through. Considering her beloved career, if she were to choose marriage, it would undoubtedly be a major blow to her professional life. But if she didn't get married, what would happen to her child? There was no way to have the best of both worlds. She had to give up one of them, and she had no choice but to painfully give up her beloved acting career.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry so much. Maybe my marriage will increase my fan base after it's revealed. Besides, my current fans are all loyal, and they won't leave me easily. You should think positively," Chen Xiaoqi comforted Li Lili. But how could she not know? The entertainment industry is a place that's never short of beautiful women. Moreover, she's only been famous for half a year and hasn't even established herself yet. Naturally, she'll be forgotten soon. Even if she's very famous now and is seen as a charity ambassador, so what?

"Yes, I think so too. You're so beautiful and capable, so naturally you'll be very popular whether you get married or not. As for marriage, just think it through and make sure you won't regret it after you decide," Li Lili said with a smile.

Seeing the cheerful Chen Xiaoqi in front of her, Li Lili couldn't help but feel a quick liking for her. She liked girls like Chen Xiaoqi who were willing to give up everything for love and abandon their beloved. However, she couldn't help but feel sorry for Chen Xiaoqi, as she was still young and had a lot of potential for future development.

"But sister-in-law, my family doesn't agree." After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Xiaoqi thought about whether she had really thought everything through. After confirming her thoughts, Chen Xiaoqi asked firmly.

“They’re unwilling because they haven’t seen Li Ran’s family’s attitude. Marriage is not a game; it involves two families, unlike dating. Since Li Ran’s family hasn’t expressed their opinion, they naturally can’t be the first to do so. This is for your own good; they’re doing this so that you won’t suffer after marriage,” Li Lili advised Chen Xiaoqi. As the saying goes, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly. As an outsider, Li Lili could naturally see things very clearly.

"Really? That's good. I thought they were angry." Chen Xiaoqi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Then she heard Li Lili say, "They are a little angry, aren't they? After all, you're still young, so of course they want you to spend more time with them." Li Lili's words hit the nail on the head. Chen Xiaoqi understood this, so she said, "I'll talk to my parents properly later." Chen Xiaoqi was also reluctant to part with her parents. She had just graduated and started working, and now she was going to have her own family. This sudden change was huge, and her parents would inevitably find it hard to accept.

After finishing her story, Chen Xiaoqi prepared to have a serious talk with her parents. She knocked on their door and went inside. "Dad, Mom," Chen Xiaoqi said, bursting into tears as soon as she entered and saw them sitting on the bed sighing.

Just then, Chen's mother said, "Don't get agitated. When you're pregnant, your emotions are the most important thing to avoid." As soon as Chen's mother said these caring words, Chen Xiaoqi could no longer contain her emotions. So she went over and hugged Chen's mother, and then started crying.

Seeing Chen Xiaoqi's distress, her mother felt extremely sorry for her and quickly comforted her. Chen's father also quickly poured her a glass of water so she could calm down. Then, Chen Xiaoqi said, "Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, I've let you down."

These were the words Chen Xiaoqi uttered after calming down. Upon hearing them, Chen's mother quickly replied, "No, no." Chen's mother had never been disappointed in Chen Xiaoqi; on the contrary, she was proud of her. Her daughter's success was a testament to her excellence. "Your mother and I have never been disappointed in you. We just feel it's a pity you're getting married now. You're still young and don't understand many things, but you're already... Oh well, let it be. If you want to get married, then go ahead," Chen's father said with heartache. What better way to handle things than to agree to Chen Xiaoqi's request? He couldn't think of anything else.

"Your father is right, we agree to your marriage, but we need to see the sincerity of Li Ran's family," Chen's mother said firmly. Chen Xiaoqi happily replied, "Thank you, Mom and Dad." She then chatted with Chen's parents for a while, reminiscing about their childhood and many interesting things that happened between her and Chen Ling. After a long time, Chen's father said, "Alright, you can go back now. Li Ran is still waiting outside!" He spoke calmly.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoqi nodded and prepared to go back. Before leaving, she hugged her parents one last time before finally leaving. At that moment, Chen Xiaoqi realized how much her parents truly loved her. She had always thought they didn't care about anything because they could travel the world and not contact them for long periods. She thought they didn't usually show much concern for her, but it turned out they hid their love in the little things of daily life. Thinking about it, it made sense; what parent in the world doesn't love their child?

Chapter 216: Someone from the Li family is coming

"Let's go back." Chen Xiaoqi said to Li Ran as soon as she came out. Li Ran had been waiting in the living room for a long time. After hearing Chen Xiaoqi's words, he quickly stood up and prepared to go back.

He nodded to Chen Xiaoqi, then led her back. They didn't say a word the entire way, remaining silent.

However, Li Lili had already gone to keep Chen Ling company when Chen Xiaoqi left. "Chen Ling, are you still angry? Didn't you tell me that you were the one who helped Li Ran get together with Chen Xiaoqi? It's a good thing that they got married. True love has finally come together. Aren't you happy for them?" Li Lili advised.

Just then, Chen Ling looked up at Li Lili and said helplessly, "I just feel that Xiao Qi is still so young. She used to follow me around calling me 'brother' and playing with me. How come she's grown up so fast and is about to get married?" As soon as Chen Ling said this, Li Lili understood what he was thinking. In fact, even if Chen Ling hadn't said it, she would have guessed it.

“Xiaoqi will grow up eventually, and she will get married eventually. Now she has someone who loves her, someone you know and trust. Isn’t that good? You should be happy for Chen Xiaoqi.” Li Lili’s words made a lot of sense, and Chen Ling felt much better after hearing them.

So Chen Ling said, "Yes, Xiao Qi will eventually grow up and get married. It's a good thing that she can be with the person she likes. Besides, this person is my brother, and he's a good person. I should wish her well." As Chen Ling spoke, his mood eased a lot.

Then Li Lili said, "That's right, it's good that you've come to your senses." Li Lili looked at Chen Ling and spoke gently. Chen Ling smiled and nodded. Looking at Li Lili, his thoughts drifted far away. When would he and Li Lili be able to tie the knot? Thinking of this, Chen Ling couldn't help but shake his head. He had been insisting on not getting married just a while ago; how quickly he had changed his mind! Chen Ling thought to himself.

After dropping Chen Xiaoqi off, Li Ran contacted his family. He made a video call, and his parents, seeing him, happily asked, "Li Ran, how have you been?"

After exchanging a few pleasantries with them, Li Ran said, "Come over sometime, I'm getting married." Li's mother was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately asked which family the bride belonged to. However, Li's father's expression wasn't as happy.

Mr. Li said, "You only told us when you were already preparing for the wedding. Just get married already, we won't come." Mr. Li's meaning was clear: he was blaming Li Ran for not informing them of such an important event as marriage, which was already in the planning stages, and they hadn't even seen the girl yet.

Then Li Ran used her trump card: "She's pregnant." Upon hearing this, Li's mother patted Li's father's arm, repeatedly saying, "Did you hear that? We're going to have a grandson!" Hearing Li Ran's words, Li's father softened. He also longed for a grandson. Coupled with Li's mother's words, Li's father calmly said, "Okay, your mother and I will come over tomorrow." After saying that, Li's father hung up the phone.

So Li's mother hurriedly went to pack her luggage, preparing to go see her grandson. Li's father was also very excited, and quickly booked train tickets. As they busied themselves, they said, "How wonderful! We're going to hold our grandson!"

The next day, Mr. and Mrs. Li arrived, and Li Ran took Chen Xiaoqi to the airport to pick her up. It was at this moment that Mrs. Li's reaction upon seeing Chen Xiaoqi was quite strong.

"You, you're Ranran's girlfriend? Aren't you that celebrity?" Li's mother said in surprise. Just then, Li's father asked Li Ran, "Is this Chen Xiaoqi?" Li's father had also seen Chen Xiaoqi on TV.

Li Ran began introducing Chen Xiaoqi to them, and then Li's mother kept talking to Chen Xiaoqi. At this moment, Li's father started to ask, "What do Xiaoqi's family think?" He also said that Li's father was more reliable, knew where the key point was, and was able to think about Chen Xiaoqi's family.

It was at this moment that Li Ran suggested we have a meal first, and then chat. After arriving at the restaurant, Li's mother asked, "Xiaoqi, what do your family members think?" "My parents are somewhat unwilling for me to get married now. My career is on the rise, and they think it's a waste to get married now. Besides, they still think I'm too young and are reluctant to let me marry off." Chen Xiaoqi was naturally aware of what she was saying.

Although Li's mother didn't have a daughter, as a mother herself, she could understand that feeling. So she said, "Yes, parents always have the same heart. But don't worry, I will definitely treat you like my own daughter." Li's mother was overjoyed to see that her son had found such an excellent daughter-in-law. She was very satisfied with Chen Xiaoqi. Li's mother, who often watched TV dramas at home, often watched those starring Chen Xiaoqi. She was quite a loyal fan of Chen Xiaoqi.
