#252 - Chapter 252: Take care of my father-in-law! Go home, something happened at the Jinling constr
Xia Qingmo's tone was firmer than ever before.
Xia Xiangyang snapped back to reality, quickly forcing a smile: "Dad doesn't mean that, I wanted to say… many college romances don't last until the end—it's not that Dad wants to stop you, it's mainly reality…"
"We will be together, forever!" Xia Qingmo said very seriously, with unwavering belief.
"You little brat…"
Xia Xiangyang was completely stunned: "What kind of voodoo did you give my daughter?!\n"
"Dad!"
Xia Qingyan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Do you know why Qingmo is becoming more and more outstanding now?"
"Why?"
"Because Chen Hao gave her endless courage and endless confidence!"
"You've always been worried about Qingmo and what will become of her personality in the future."
"But even you can only worry; Chen Hao changed everything!"
Xia Xiangyang was dumbfounded.
He stared blankly at Chen Hao, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
If what his eldest daughter said was true, and Chen Hao helped his youngest daughter regain her confidence and completely changed her, he should thank him.
But…
He couldn't bring himself to thank him!
In fact, he was very unhappy.
He felt a sense of loss, as if his daughter had been taken away, pot and all.
His youngest daughter was standing up to him again and again for this young man.
Did that mean that in her heart, her old father no longer had any status?
"That's not true."
At this critical moment, Chen Hao said solemnly, "What I can do is very limited; I just enlightened Qingmo a little. The reason why Qingmo is so outstanding is because of her excellent parents."
"Uncle is upright and devoted to his duties."
"Aunt is gentle, virtuous, and has a positive outlook."
"Qingmo can only be so outstanding in such a good family environment."
He sensed that his future father-in-law was in a bad mood.
The reason?
Of course, he knew.
In this family, winning over the father-in-law is much more important than winning over the sister-in-law.
Therefore…
Sister-in-law, don't blame me for selling out my teammate!
Xia Xiangyang was stunned, then immediately raised his head and puffed out his chest, glaring at his eldest daughter: "Listen! Listen to what Little Chen is saying! It's as if I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities in this family!"
"Little Chen, Auntie won't stop you from dating Qingmo anyway," Zhong Ping said with a smile.
Who doesn't like being flattered?
The key is, he's hitting the nail on the head!
"…"
Xia Qingyan was dumbfounded on the spot.
Immediately afterward.
Wasn't it for you and Qingmo?
You bastard!
You sold me out directly to flatter my parents—wait, I'll settle this account with you later!
This incident suddenly came up, and the family hadn't even eaten yet.
Perfect!
Chen Hao's flattery made Xia Xiangyang feel that his status in the family had greatly improved, so he took the initiative to invite Chen Hao to dinner.
It was completely different from his initial attitude.
Not to mention Zhong Ping.
Mainly…
She watches too many TV dramas and especially likes handsome guys.
Coincidentally, Chen Hao is handsome.
And her youngest daughter is beautiful.
What is this?
A match made in heaven!
She felt that Chen Hao and her youngest daughter were like the male and female protagonists in a TV series, perfect and impeccable!
Thus.
Xia Qingyan had an even harder time.
Not only did her younger sister have a boyfriend, but she also brought her boyfriend home.
What about her?
She's in her twenties and hasn't even been in a relationship.
Is that normal?
Faced with her parents urging her to marry again, especially in front of Chen Hao, Xia Qingyan's face turned green with anger.
…
The Lunar New Year is approaching, and whether you've made money or not, you have to celebrate it properly.
After all, it's the most important traditional festival.
Even if you don't have money, you still want to have a lively time.
But…
Some people who have made a lot of money can't be happy.
It was past ten o'clock in the evening.
Chen Fuhai was packing all kinds of gifts.
Cigarettes.
Liquor.
Candy.
Their family has always been like this: they spend the Lunar New Year at Chen Hao's grandparents' house and visit Chen Hao's maternal grandparents on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve.
He took advantage of the evening to pack things up first.
"What are you packing?!\n"
Suddenly!
Li Lan, who was sitting on the sofa, became agitated: "It's only called celebrating the New Year when the whole family is together. What's there to celebrate if our son hasn't come back? I want to wait for my son at home!"
"It's not…"
Chen Fuhai was anxious: "We've been going back to our hometown for the Lunar New Year every year. If you don't go back… what will people say?"
"Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you! On the first day of the Lunar New Year, don't go to my parents' house either!"
"That's not what I meant."
"That's what I meant!"
For some reason.
Li Lan's nose twitched: "I haven't been able to contact him… I keep having nightmares lately."
As she spoke.
She was about to cry.
"Wife!"
Chen Fuhai quickly came over, put his arms around his wife, and said in a low voice, "Okay! We'll wait for our son at home, we won't go anywhere—we won't go back to celebrate the New Year either!"
Men and women think differently.
In his opinion, there couldn't be any danger to his son doing a project with his tutor.
But his wife didn't think so!
She couldn't feel at ease if she couldn't contact him.
"You go back."
Li Lan wiped the corners of her eyes and murmured, "I'm not going back. Your sister-in-law will definitely be gossiping. If you don't go back… who knows what she'll be saying? I'll wait for my son alone at home."
"I don't care what she says—Wife, I'll stay with you!"
Chen Fuhai waved his hand.
Most of his direct relatives are very nice, except for that sister-in-law…
However.
He only sees her once a year, so he doesn't take it to heart at all.
Going home for the Lunar New Year is purely for his parents, as for others…
If they get along, they get along.
If they don't, then forget it!
Creak…
Just then, the door was pushed open from the outside.
"Dad, Mom…"
Chen Hao rushed in, and when he saw his dad hugging his mom, he couldn't help but freeze.
He stepped back.
Closed the door.
"Well… I'll go for a walk, you guys continue."
"You brat, what nonsense are you talking about?!\n" Chen Fuhai quickly let go of his wife.
"Son!"
Li Lan pushed her husband away and ran over like a whirlwind, hugging him tightly: "You little rascal! Where have you been?!\n"
"How many times has your mother called you in the past two months?"
"What kind of topic does a freshman student do?"
"Did you run off to some deep mountain forest? You couldn't even answer the phone?!\n"
Chen Hao smiled.
He smiled and then felt a little sad.
He gently patted his mom's back: "It won't happen again in the future!"
…
The day before Lunar New Year's Eve, he first met Academician Pan, and in the evening he went to Xia Qingmo's house and was caught and interrogated.
He also managed to win over his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.
He returned to Jinling under the starry sky and moon.
He was very tired!
The key is, he continued to develop for nearly two months, and also managed to get the 055 destroyer settled, so he was physically and mentally exhausted.
He finally got home.
He can rest for a while.
The first night, after chatting with his parents for a while, Chen Hao fell asleep without even taking a bath.
He slept until eight o'clock the next morning.
Until he was awakened by a phone call.
Seeing that it was a strange number, Chen Hao frowned unhappily: "Who is it?"
"Chairman Chen, this is Huang Shengnan. Are you in Jinling?" It was a female voice full of energy.
Huang Shengnan?
Ma Dafa's wife!
Chen Hao sat up suddenly.
Outside, Ma Dafa is a big boss, but in reality, he is henpecked. Before merging into Tenglong Construction, the company was under Huang Shengnan's name.
Later, the two parties cooperated, and the construction company was merged into Tenglong Construction, and Huang Shengnan was also the one who connected with Ren Xue.
However, Chen Hao has never met her until now.
"I just got back yesterday, what's wrong?" Chen Hao asked quickly.
"Something happened at the Jinling construction site. I rushed over before dawn."
"Something happened?"
Chen Hao was puzzled: "Isn't it the Lunar New Year?"
Aren't construction sites all shut down during the Lunar New Year?
What could happen?
