Father-in-law Looking at Son-in-law
Creak ~~~
The door was pulled open, and a middle-aged woman in plain clothes walked out.
"Ranran, you're back. Come in quickly.”The middle-aged woman greeted him warmly.
"This is Xiao Lin, right? She's really good-looking. Give me the things and quickly go into the house to rest.”As the middle-aged woman spoke, she reached out to take the pile of things in Lin Chen's hands.
"Auntie Zhang, there's no need. These things aren't very heavy and aren't tiring.”Lin Chen said with a smile. On the way, Anran had introduced him to the family and had seen the photos. He knew that this was Anran's nanny and an elder who had watched Anran grow up.
"Auntie Zhang, we'll do these things ourselves.”An Ran also spoke at the right time, very cooperative with Lin Chen.
"Alright, hurry up and come in. It's such a hot day outside. Don't get sunburnt.”Auntie Zhang quickly moved aside to let An Ran and Lin Chen in.
As soon as he entered, Lin Chen saw a middle-aged man sitting on the living room sofa watching television. He hurriedly greeted him politely,"Hello, Uncle."
"Yes." Anran's father (later replaced by Father An) nodded at Lin Chen and didn't say anything else. He turned around and continued watching TV.
"Is your father so cold to everyone?”Lin Chen asked An Ran softly as he placed the bags in his hands on the table by the door.
Anran rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily,""Your daughter is about to be taken away by another man.”
Lin Chen thought for a moment and felt that he hadn't even touched someone else's cabbage yet. Thinking about those things was too far away, so he didn't say anything more and began to adjust his mentality.
"I'll go deal with my dad first. Be smart. I'll treat you to a big meal later.”Seeing that Lin Chen was intimidated by her father's indifference, An Ran quickly cheered him on.
If this was exposed at home, who knew how many blind dates his family would arrange for him in the future.
"Alright."
Seeing Lin Chen nod, Anran turned around and walked toward Father An.""Dad, what are you watching?”
"I'm just looking around. Hurry up and go to the kitchen to help your mother cook. I'll talk to Xiao Lin.”Father An turned around and glanced at Anran before sending her to the kitchen.
"I just came back. Aren't you going to chat with me?”An Ran continued to delay, her tone carrying a hint of coquettishness.
At this moment, a beautiful middle-aged woman wearing an apron walked out of the kitchen.
"Hello, Auntie." Seeing An Ran's mother smile at him, Lin Chen hurriedly greeted her.
"Xiao Lin, have a seat first. We'll go get food. It'll be ready in a while.”After Mother An finished speaking, she looked at Anran.""Ranran, quickly come over and help me wash the vegetables. Your Auntie Zhang and I are too busy.”
Anran had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the kitchen. At the same time, she looked at Lin Chen helplessly, indicating that she had no choice.
"In the future, if the Fire Phoenix has such a job again, I won't take it even if I'm beaten to death.”Seeing that An Ran, who had volunteered to go on stage, was called away, Lin Chen suddenly felt that he had made a wrong decision.
This meal was not delicious, and the mental pressure was too great.
"Xiao Lin, come and sit here. Let's talk.”After An Ran walked into the kitchen, Father An turned his head and said to Lin Chen.
"He's here." Lin Chen put on an act as he placed the last bag in his hand. He braced himself and walked to the sofa to sit down.
"I heard that you and Ranran are in the same unit?”After Lin Chen sat down, Father An threw out his first question.
"Yes, I joined the army late and am now in the same company as Ranran." Lin Chen replied with a smile. He felt that the smile on his face must have been very stiff at this moment, because he did not even know where to put his hands now.
He could only sit upright with his hands on his knees and his back straight like the male soldiers in the TV series who met the female parents.
"Then, how was Ranran's performance in the army? Father An continued to ask. His expression was still serious, like a general interrogating a soldier.
However, Lin Chen was a little confused at this moment. Shouldn't he be asking about me at this time? Why was he only asking about Anran?
What he didn't know was that a similar scene was happening in the kitchen. Auntie Zhang and Mother An were talking about Lin Chen.
What was his performance in the army, how did the two of them get to know each other, and whether they had any plans or plans?
Lin Chen and An Ran had a headache from all the questions. Fortunately, they were in the same company and had discussed the answers to some important questions on the way, so they did not give themselves away.
However, it was obviously not easy for Lin Chen to pass the test. After he finally braced himself and dealt with Father An, Mother An called for dinner. Hence, the venue of the "interrogation" was changed to the dining table.
What made Lin Chen heave a sigh of relief was that after they reached the dining table, Father An's expression softened a little. It was not as cold as before.
The person who asked him questions was also Mother An. Her tone and attitude were much gentler and kinder.
"Xiao Lin, eat more. Treat this place as your own home. Don't be nervous. After Mother An finished speaking, she glared at Father An."Don't put on a long face. Look at how scared the child is. He doesn't even dare to say anything.”
"That's right. It's Lin Chen's first time coming to our house. Dad, don't scare him. An Ran added a piece of meat to Lin Chen's bowl and echoed.
"I just don't like to talk much usually. I don't blame Uncle." Seeing that someone was finally speaking up for him, Lin Chen heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
An Ran also let out a sigh of relief. She could also see that Lin Chen had indeed relaxed a lot. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lied so easily.
