Because Mrs. Chen values this very much, or rather, it's not just Mrs. Chen who values it; it's something that all women care about.
"Yes, it's true, really. I've realized I still can't praise you. If I do, you'll think you're on top of the world. That won't do." Mr. Chen said calmly, looking at Mrs. Chen.
Before saying this, Mr. Chen knew that Mrs. Chen would overthink it, so he hesitated for a while before deciding to say it. After all, it was indeed the truth. Sure enough, Mrs. Chen was very well-maintained and looked very young.
"Haha, that's good. I was worried about getting old. Haha." Mrs. Chen felt extremely smug after hearing Mr. Chen's words. She felt that all her skincare efforts hadn't been in vain, and all those skincare products hadn't been wasted. A little secret joy began to creep into her heart.
However, at that moment, Mr. Chen quickly asked, "Can I attend your class reunion?"
"See, you already said it yourself, it's my class reunion. What are you going to do there? You don't know any of my classmates, there's nothing to talk about, and it'll be inconvenient for you to go." After hearing what Mr. Chen said, Mrs. Chen was quite helpless, so she immediately started talking to Mr. Chen.
Then they saw Mrs. Chen looking intently at Mr. Chen…
"Well, I was just worried about you," Mr. Chen said, sounding aggrieved.
"What's there to worry about? Don't worry at all," said Mrs. Chen firmly. She then stopped talking and simply started playing on her phone.
"Okay, then let's leave it at that for now. Anyway, your class reunion date hasn't been set yet, so I won't interfere. Let's just leave it at that for now." Mr. Chen replied to Mrs. Chen casually at this moment.
However, at that moment, Chen's mother smiled and said, "Look at you, all wronged. You're so cute. Why don't you see if any of your old classmates want to have a reunion? If so, you can go and join us."
"Let's just leave it at that. Those who are close to us keep in touch, and those who aren't so close, there's no need to bother. Everyone's busy with their own things anyway. Let's just leave it at that. If we have the chance, we'll definitely see each other. If not, then that's it," Mr. Chen said with a smile.
So we saw Chen's mother nod helplessly and stop caring about Chen's father's affairs.
However, at this moment, Mr. Chen smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Well, it's okay. Just do your own thing. I'll do what I need to do. You don't need to worry about me. It would be nice if I went downstairs to find someone to play chess with. Don't worry about me. If you really want to go over and have some fun, then you can go. I'm fine with it."
Chapter 607 Regaining Confidence 2
After finishing his speech, Mr. Chen burst into laughter at Li Lili.
"Then I won't bother with you anymore. I'll start preparing for my own things." After hearing what Mr. Chen said, Mrs. Chen hesitated for a moment before smiling and saying this.
At first, Mrs. Chen wondered if what she was doing was inappropriate, since if she went out, it would only be Mr. Chen left. But then she thought, it's not a big deal, what's wrong with Mr. Chen being alone? It's not a big problem.
After Chen's mother finished speaking, she went directly to her class monitor and started sending messages, inquiring about the monitor's recent situation.
Unfortunately, the class monitor had passed away two months prior. The person who replied to Chen's mother was the class monitor's son, who happened to be sorting through the monitor's belongings when he saw the phone…
When Chen's mother heard the devastating news, she was initially shaken. Li Lili thought it was all too sudden; why hadn't anyone told her? But this kind of thing certainly wasn't a good thing, so it was understandable that no one knew.
Then Chen's father smiled and said, "What are you thinking about?"
At that moment, Mr. Chen suddenly turned his head and saw Mrs. Chen deep in thought, so he asked out of curiosity. However, Mrs. Chen was too engrossed in her thoughts to hear Mr. Chen's voice.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Mr. Chen asked Mrs. Chen again. This time, Mr. Chen spoke a little louder, which finally brought Mrs. Chen back to her senses.
"Ah." Coming to her senses, Mrs. Chen looked at Mr. Chen in surprise.
"What are you thinking about? You seem so focused," Mr. Chen asked, looking at Mrs. Chen with curiosity.
"I just received some terrible news." At that moment, Chen's mother swallowed hard before continuing to speak.
"What?" Mr. Chen asked Mrs. Chen helplessly.
"Our class monitor passed away." Mrs. Chen looked at Mr. Chen and spoke in a heavy tone. Even as she uttered those words, her heart skipped a beat. She felt the weight of the words was too heavy; even saying them made her feel depressed.
"Huh? What happened? It's so sudden? Didn't anyone post these messages in your classmates' group chat?" Mr. Chen asked again when he saw this.
"No, they didn't say," Mrs. Chen replied.
"Okay, so what do we do now? Do you still want to have this gathering?" Mr. Chen got to the point and asked Mrs. Chen calmly.
Then Chen's mother quickly said, "Well, okay, I don't want to say much more. Anyway, that's all. Of course, we have to have a class reunion, especially about the class monitor. It's disheartening that no one knew about it. Sigh, let's all get in touch and see how everyone is doing now."
"Okay, sure. I'll support whatever you do," Mr. Chen said with a smile.
After hearing the devastating news from Mrs. Chen, Mr. Chen changed his mind about her organizing a class reunion. After all, they were classmates, and if they had the opportunity to sit down and chat about their past or things that had happened together, it would be a good thing.
"Okay," Mrs. Chen replied to Mr. Chen earnestly.
Then, Mr. Chen glanced at Mrs. Chen and said nothing more. Mrs. Chen, however, continued to use her phone to contact her former classmates.
At this moment, Li Lili was busy in the kitchen, while Chen Ling was diligently helping her out.
"Is this alright?" After chopping the vegetables according to Li Lili's instructions, Chen Ling couldn't wait to ask Li Lili, wanting her approval.
"Okay, that's fine. There's nothing else for you to do. Go and chat with your parents for a while." Li Lili glanced at the vegetables Chen Ling was chopping, and then continued speaking.
"Okay, I understand." Chen Ling glanced at the kitchen and realized there was really nothing else he could do to help, so he replied.
However, just as Chen Ling finished speaking and was about to leave, he quickly added, "By the way, I can stay here and chat with you for a while, what do you think?"
“I don’t think it’s very good, it’s okay. You go and rest. I’m fine here by myself. I won’t feel bored when I’m cooking.” Li Lili said with a smile.
Then Chen Ling nodded and went out.
After watching Chen Ling leave, Li Lili immediately went back to her work and started cooking...
However, after Chen Ling entered the living room, he saw his parents sitting quietly without saying a word. Chen Ling instinctively felt something was amiss, so he immediately asked them a question.
"Mom and Dad, what's wrong? Did you two have a fight?" Chen Ling asked as he walked.
"No."
"No."
Mr. and Mrs. Chen answered Chen Ling's words in unison.
However, at that moment, Chen Ling was heard laughing and saying, "Still saying no? When have you two ever been so in sync? Tell me, what's going on? Is it still about the class reunion? Dad, you don't want Mom to go, do you?"
“We really didn’t argue. What are you thinking, child? How can I tell you this so you’ll believe me?” Mr. Chen said helplessly.
Then, after speaking to Chen Ling, Mr. Chen immediately turned to look at Mrs. Chen beside him and said, "Tell him whether we had a fight or not."
"We really didn't argue, it was something between my classmates," Chen's mother explained upon seeing this.
"Huh? What's wrong? What happened?" Chen Ling asked anxiously after hearing what his mother said.
"Yes, the class monitor had an accident and passed away." Chen's mother said sadly from the side.
In fact, the passing of the class monitor was a huge blow to Chen's mother.
Chapter 608 Regaining Confidence 3
Just then, after speaking, Chen's mother immediately lowered her head and fell silent. Images of the class monitors were flashing through her mind; this sudden bad news left her feeling completely lost.
"What you're saying is a bit unexpected. So what do we do now?" Chen Ling asked his mother.
“What else can we do? We still want a get-together. Otherwise, look at my old classmate, the class monitor, who passed away, and nobody even knows. It breaks my heart,” Chen’s mother replied immediately.
Then Chen Ling nodded, and then said to his mother, "Well, what you said makes some sense. If you don't keep in touch, you probably won't know what's going on in the class. But we should still see what other people think."
"Okay, I understand," Mrs. Chen replied.
Then he saw Chen Ling standing to the side, and he didn't know what to say next.
After a while, Chen Ling asked again, "Are you still confident in organizing this class reunion?"
"I'm not confident at all, I'm so nervous. What should I do?" Chen's mother said, looking at Chen Ling.
"I don't know either. These are all your classmates, so you'll just have to do some persuasion. But I've always felt that meals are best when everyone is willing. Otherwise, even if you get together, it won't be very effective if everyone is in a bad mood."
"Yes, yes, I understand everything you've said. Let me see how it goes," Mrs. Chen replied calmly.
However, Mr. Chen, who was standing to the side, understood what Mrs. Chen meant after hearing her words, so he asked her, "What's wrong? Have you lost confidence? Do you feel like you can't organize it?"
"Mmm." Mrs. Chen nodded very obediently.
Then, Mr. Chen quickly comforted Mrs. Chen, saying, "It's okay. You're a class committee member, so your words carry some weight. Besides, everyone's free, so it wouldn't be a bad thing if we could get together for a meal."
"Yes, I know, that's true, but I still feel like something's not quite right," Mrs. Chen said helplessly from the side.
"Are you afraid of getting any more bad news?" Mr. Chen asked bluntly.
"Yes, that's right." After hearing this, Chen's mother stopped hesitating and answered directly.
Then I saw Mr. Chen think about it carefully, but he didn't know what to say.
"It's alright, Mom. It's better than you not knowing their situation at all, right? Think about it from another perspective, it's not so bad, is it?" Chen Ling said with a smile.
Then, Chen's mother immediately turned to look at Chen Ling and said, "What's so good about it? That aspect?"
"At least you know what your old classmates are up to, otherwise you wouldn't know what's going on with everyone. Anyway, that's my opinion. Now you know what's going on," Chen Ling replied calmly.
"Hmm, I think I understand what you're saying, but what I want to know is, what's the benefit of this? I don't quite understand," Chen's mother asked Chen Ling, sounding very puzzled.
"Ah, it's hard to explain. You see, what if something unfortunate happens to one of your classmates? You wouldn't even know, would that be a bit bad? So, it's actually good to keep in touch and know what's going on." Chen Ling said with a hint of helplessness.
Chen Ling meant that it would have been a good thing to know earlier, as it would have allowed him to know how everyone was doing. But it would have been alright if he hadn't known; there would be no need to be sad.
"Okay, I understand. Just do as you say." Chen's mother looked at Chen Ling and said firmly.
"Ah, if that's how you think, then it's alright," Chen Ling replied casually.
"Alright, then I'll go ask the other classmates?" Chen's mother asked, looking at Chen Ling.
“Okay,” Chen Ling nodded in response.
Then, Chen's mother took a deep breath, picked up her phone again, and started contacting her old classmates to see how everyone was doing lately.
"Keep it up." Mr. Chen noticed Li Lili's nervousness and immediately said.
"Mmm." Mrs. Chen nodded with a smile.
Then I saw Chen's mother, who now had confidence and started doing what she hadn't finished earlier.
In a short while, Li Lili, who had been busy in the kitchen, finished her work and came out, calling them to come and eat.
"Dinner is ready..." Li Lili said to Chen Ling and the others as she carried the dishes.
"Okay," Chen Ling replied quickly.
Then Chen Ling was seen standing up immediately while talking and walking towards the kitchen. Chen Ling wanted to hurry over and help Li Lili serve the dishes.
However, by the time Chen Ling reached the kitchen, Li Lili had already finished serving the food.
"Alright, we can eat now," Li Lili said to Chen Ling and the others again.
"Mmm. Okay." Mrs. Chen said with a smile.
However, at that moment, Chen Ling and the others were seen washing their hands before returning to the dining table to eat.
"This pickled fish is what Dad made for lunch. We didn't finish it, so I reheated it. Why don't you try it?" Li Lili said to Chen Ling at this moment.
