Then Li Lili asked incredulously, "Mom, did you tell this to me? My God, how could you be so scary? I feel like I don't know you at all anymore."

Chapter 1086 Full of Surprise

Li Lili thought that Chen's mother was really acting very strangely; she had never seen Chen's mother like this before.

"Is it really necessary? What's the big deal? I don't think anything's wrong at all. Why are you so nervous? It's nothing serious. Don't get so worked up," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

"Well, it's not really that bad. I'm just overreacting, but there's nothing I can do. I'm just really excited and nervous, especially seeing you like this. Really, like I just said, I've never seen you like this before, you know? So I was really curious." Li Lili then said with a smile.

However, at this moment, Chen's mother smiled and said, "Haha, will you get used to it after hearing it so many times? So, don't get too excited, you'll get used to it eventually."

"Well, that's true, but oh well, let's leave it at that. So, that's settled then," Li Lili continued.

"Huh? What did you say? You've decided on that? What decision? I don't quite understand what you're saying." Just then, Chen's mother, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up with a smile.

"Well, it's nothing, I was just saying it casually, don't take it to heart. Haven't we said we'd eat a lot? Let's eat properly, after all, you just said that, right?" Li Lili replied with a smile.

Just then, Chen's mother was seen standing to the side, and she quickly spoke up, saying, "Well, if that's what you say, then I really won't argue with you at all. It's just the truth."

"Haha, what else is there to say? Let's eat." Mr. Chen, who had been silent, finally spoke up with a laugh.

"Um, eating? Well, if it's about eating, then I really have to shut my mouth." Just then, Chen's mother, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up with a smile.

"See? We're just asking you to eat, and you start talking again. If you keep talking, we'll just have to keep arguing with you," Mr. Chen said immediately after hearing Mrs. Chen's words. His tone sounded somewhat reproachful.

However, at this moment, Chen's mother spoke up again: "Ah, yes, you probably don't know, but I was hesitant. On one hand, I wanted to eat properly, but on the other hand, I wanted to chat for a while longer."

"Mom, we're not in a rush to chat. Can we talk about it after we finish eating?" Li Lili said with a smile as soon as she heard this.

Li Lili was trying to ease the tension as quickly as possible...

Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Alright then. If that's the case, let's decide on this."

However, Mr. Chen calmly continued, "Yes, that's fine. If that's what you want to do, then of course you can."

"Haha, it's rare to hear you say yes," Mrs. Chen replied happily after hearing this.

Then, Mr. Chen said with a smile, "Tch, you're acting like you're the one who's wronged. What's wrong? Have I made you feel so wronged? Have I been arguing with you too often or what?"

"Well, it's nothing, I just felt... well, it's okay, just pretend I didn't say anything," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

After Chen's mother finished speaking, Li Lili muttered softly, "They're chatting again, aren't they?"

"Huh? Xiaoxue, what are you saying?" Chen's mother asked immediately after hearing this.

Just then, Chen's mother appeared and said with a smile, "Haha, what's wrong? What's going on?"

However, as soon as Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she saw Li Lili immediately shake her head, and then quickly smiled and said, "It's alright. Let's eat, hurry up and eat!"

"Look at this topic, we've been talking about it for ages, why haven't we stopped? We've said we'd eat properly so many times, but we haven't really eaten properly. Okay, okay, stop talking so much, let's eat." Mr. Chen said helplessly.

Just then, Chen's mother and Li Lili both nodded, without saying anything more.

After quite a while, Chen's mother and the others finally finished their lunch.

"Wow, finally finished eating! Can I talk now? I was about to burst!" Li Lili exclaimed excitedly.

"Haha, look at how exaggerated you are! Anyone who didn't know better would think you were really wronged. What's wrong? Is it really that big of a deal? If you really had something to say, you could have just said it. You're so frustrated." Mrs. Chen said with a laugh.

However, at that moment, Li Lili smiled and replied, "Haven't we told each other so many times that we should eat properly? We haven't been able to eat properly at all. I'm worried that once I start talking, we'll start making a fuss again. And then we won't be able to stop it, what will we do then?"

"If you ask me, you're just overthinking things. What's the big deal? If you can't control yourself, so be it. Besides, we've been quite excited when we chatted before, so it's not a big deal," Mrs. Chen continued.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately began to think to herself: "I've never heard you say anything about eating properly and not chatting before."

"Mom, didn't we agree to eat properly? I'm too embarrassed to say anything more," Li Lili said with a smile, looking at Chen's mother.

However, at that moment, Chen's mother smiled and replied, "Oh, so that's what you're thinking about. But don't you know that we people are adaptable? If something goes wrong, then of course we can change it."

As Chen's mother spoke earnestly, she kept looking at Li Lili.

Chapter 1087 A Short Story

Li Lili found it extremely funny to watch Chen's mother speak and to see the way she looked at her after the drink was finished.

Then Li Lili smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. I just wanted to remind you that you've remembered what I told you, right? If anything happens, you can just tell us directly, okay? You don't need to think about anything else," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

Then Li Lili nodded quickly and said, "Yes, if you really put it that way, I guess I understand. From now on, if anything happens to me, I'll just tell you directly. I won't think about so many things anymore, and I won't worry about the consequences."

“Sure, if that’s really what you think, I think it’s great.” Mrs. Chen looked at Li Lili and said very seriously.

However, at that moment, Mr. Chen smiled and said, "I really admire you two. I don't know why you two brought up this issue again."

"Isn't that perfectly normal?" Mrs. Chen said with a smile when she saw this.

“Yes, that’s right. We don’t have any limitations or restrictions when we chat, so we can talk about a wide range of topics,” Li Lili replied at this moment.

Li Lili, who was standing to the side, looked at Chen's mother and father, and then started to laugh again.

"Haha, did I bother you guys? If you have anything else to say, then you can have a good chat. I'll go back to my room now," Li Lili said with a smile.

As soon as Li Lili finished speaking, Chen's mother immediately shook her head and said, "Ah, that's not necessary."

"Haha, that's fine then. I can rest assured now," Li Lili quickly replied.

"Oh, you don't really want to go back, you just want to test us, my goodness." After hearing Li Lili's reply, Chen's mother immediately chimed in.

Then Li Lili smiled and said, "Um, no, I just wanted to ask for your opinions. If that's how you put it, then I have no problem with it."

"Well, alright, since you put it that way, then I have no further questions. You're perfectly free to stay here and chat with us," Mrs. Chen said calmly.

"Well, I'll keep it short and to the point. Once I've said what I need to say, I'll head back immediately so as not to waste your time." Then, seeing Li Lili, he continued.

Just then, Chen's mother appeared beside her, speaking with a smile while giggling at Li Lili.

At this moment, Chen's mother said with a smile, "Oh dear, it's not a holiday today. Why would you say that? Do your father and I have anything to do or anything? Why are you giving us this extra time? No need."

"Oh, is that not necessary? It seems I was overthinking it." Li Lili quickly said with a smile upon seeing this.

Then, Mr. Chen nodded and continued, "Yes, you're overthinking it. Your mother and I are fine. Why are you making it sound like it's a holiday?"

"Haha, okay then, it seems I really was overthinking it. I won't think about it anymore, let's talk properly," Li Lili continued.

Just then, as Li Lili finished speaking, she saw Chen's mother looking at her phone with a lovestruck smile.

Then Li Lili immediately spoke up with a smile, "What's wrong? Is there some good news?"

"Oh, no. I was just talking about that video of yours. Some people in the group were discussing it, saying that you made it quite touching." Upon seeing this, Chen's mother quickly turned to look at Li Lili and began to answer.

"Oh, is that so? Actually, you don't need to think too much about it. This is originally your own video, and I just helped out a little. What you should care about more is your own content." At this moment, Li Lili replied with a smile.

However, as soon as Li Lili finished speaking, Chen's mother continued, "Yes, yes, that's right. That's exactly how it is. Sigh."

"Well, now that you know, that's good. I have nothing more to say," Li Lili replied with a smile.

"If you ask me, you women really are emotional. Look, it's just a video, and you're already thinking about crying your eyes out?" Then, seeing Mr. Chen standing to the side, she quickly added with a smile.

Just then, after hearing what Mr. Chen said, Mrs. Chen immediately retorted, "If that's what you think, then you're really mistaken. There's a reason why we women are emotional, but aren't you men the same? You're also easily moved by certain topics or things that you care about."

"Hmm, what you said makes a lot of sense, right?" Mr. Chen said with a smile as soon as he saw this.

Then Mrs. Chen looked at Mr. Chen, and then immediately said with a smile, "Well, if you just talk about us women, I will definitely mind. After all, we are all the same on these issues, regardless of gender."

"Yes, yes, yes, I think whatever you say is right, and I won't argue with you, okay?" Mr. Chen immediately said with a smile.

However, after hearing what Mr. Chen said, Mrs. Chen immediately expressed her dissatisfaction.

“You’re overthinking this. Hey, that’s not what I meant. You can’t argue with me, I just thought you could give me some reasoning. Do you understand what I mean?” Mrs. Chen continued to ask.

However, at that moment, Mr. Chen smiled and said, "Yes, I understand, I understand, how could I not understand?"

"No, judging from the tone of your voice, I think you're joking with me," Mrs. Chen said with a smile, seeing Mr. Chen's expression.

Chapter 1088 Gathering Information

Looking at how Chen's mother was talking, Chen's father couldn't help but find it funny.

Then Mr. Chen immediately smiled and said to Mrs. Chen, "Look at you, I'm just trying to say something nice to you, and you think I'm not sincere enough. So tell me what I should do? Just tell me what you want. Is that okay?"

"I don't have any requests. I just want you to tell me honestly what you want to say and do, and also to answer my questions sincerely," Mrs. Chen replied after thinking for a moment.

"If that's how you put it, then I know what to do, right? Next time you talk to me, I'll be more careful, okay?" Mr. Chen nodded and asked.

When Mr. Chen said this, he was still looking at Mrs. Chen with a serious expression.

"Yes, that's great. If you really think that way, that would be wonderful. Just be careful what you say next time you talk to me. Is what you say okay?" Li Lili then continued.

Just then, Chen's mother was seen smiling and talking.

"Okay, sure," Mr. Chen replied.

However, at this moment, Li Lili suddenly realized that there seemed to be something she hadn't done. After racking her brains for a long time, Li Lili finally realized that she hadn't gone to help Chen's father find out information.

Then, noticing Li Lili standing to the side, he immediately smiled and said, "There's one more thing I haven't told you yet."

"Huh? What's wrong?" Mr. and Mrs. Chen asked in unison after hearing this.

"I haven't had much to do these past few days, so I was thinking of going out for a stroll. Would you like to come with me?" Li Lili said with a smile.

After hearing what Li Lili said, Mr. Chen immediately understood what she meant. He then quickly smiled and said, "Ah, shopping is a woman's business. I don't need to go."

"Well, if you're saying it's a women's matter, I won't argue with you. It really is a women's matter. Do you want to come with me?" Li Lili nodded and replied.

Before Mr. Chen could answer Li Lili's question, he saw Mrs. Chen standing to the side and quickly said with a smile, "Yes, if you'd like to come with us, then we'll go together. Don't worry about whether you should come with us or not."

"I think we should forget about it. After all, I don't really enjoy shopping. I think it's a waste of time. You two should go by yourselves," Mr. Chen said, looking at Mrs. Chen.

Then, Mrs. Chen nodded, and turned to Li Lili, asking, "When do you want to go? Today or tomorrow?"

"I haven't figured out the specifics yet. I don't know how or when to go, because I have no destination in mind. I don't know what I need to do, or what I need to buy. What should I do?" Li Lili looked at Chen's mother and said with a helpless smile.

As soon as Li Lili finished speaking, Mr. Chen immediately turned to look at her. His gaze held a hint of approval.

After a brief exchange of glances, Li Lili and Mr. Chen quickly came to their senses.

However, at this moment, Chen's mother spoke up again with a smile, saying, "I don't know what to say. What should we do? Does this mean that if we want to go shopping, we have to think about what we want to buy first? Actually, I think it's okay. If you don't know what you want to buy, just wait and see what catches your eye. If you like something, just bring it back."

"But I just habitually buy things that I've planned out in advance. Shopping with a specific purpose makes it much simpler and less tiring, right?" Then, seeing Li Lili, she said with a smile.

“I know what you’re saying, but there’s nothing we can do about it. You don’t know what you want to buy, do you?” Mrs. Chen replied, nodding.
