“My mom wants us to go back home for dinner today.” Lin Xi said awkwardly, if he hadn’t been drunk yesterday, probably none of this would have happened.
Pei Jiashu had already prepared himself mentally and nodded, “Okay.”
Now that’s great, they not only have to go to Lin Xi’s home, but also to Pei Jiashu’s.
Lin Xi lay on the sofa, feeling exhausted both mentally and physically.
Pei Jiashu, on the other hand, was frequently making and answering calls, flattering the people on the phone. Lin Xi was tired just listening to him, and he still had to deal with company affairs and even take the time to prepare gifts for Lin Xi’s parents.
“Just buy some gifts casually, it’s fine,” Lin Xi said to Pei Jiashu.
“No, your parents already have a bad impression of me. If I don’t prepare thoughtful gifts when I meet them, I’ll probably be kicked out soon.”
“That won’t happen.”
“Hey, Yuheng, do you have any pearl necklaces for aunts in their fifties? The pearls should be bigger and prettier. I need them urgently now. Just send them directly to the company or my house.”
As soon as the other side answered, Pei Jiashu hung up and dialed another number.
“Uncle, there’s a Zisha teapot in the old house’s warehouse that my father treasures. Tell my father to pack it up and send it to the company for me.”
Lin Xi listened to Pei Jiashu’s phone calls in astonishment, not even having time to stop him.
“You don’t need Dad’s teapot, just buy one casually. My family isn’t that particular.”
Lin Xi didn’t expect Pei Jiashu to even go after his own father’s things in order to give a gift to his dad.
“Father?” Pei Jiashu looked at Lin Xi with some smugness, “Now that we’ve gone public, I should indeed pay attention to changing my address.”
“No…” Just as Lin Xi was about to say something, Pei Jiashu answered another call, made a shushing gesture to Lin Xi, and Lin Xi could only obediently keep quiet.
But he quickly realized that although Pei Jiashu’s gifts were prepared in a hurry, they were all things his parents liked.
Lin Xi wanted to ask something, but swallowed it back down.
He was busy until he got off work, Pei Jiashu didn’t even eat a bite of food, and hurriedly took Lin Xi home to change clothes.
“Just wear whatever you want, my parents aren’t that picky.”
“This is the first time I’m meeting your parents, I should leave them with a good impression.”
Pei Jiashu carefully selected a set of custom-made suits. Lin Xi couldn’t tell what the material was, but it looked very expensive.
Lin Xi pouted. No matter what, his parents’ impression of Pei Jiashu probably wouldn’t be too good.
The two drove to Lin Xi’s house near noon. It wasn’t Pei Jiashu’s first time here, but it was the first time he was walking inside with Lin Xi.
This was an old neighborhood, but it had a good and quiet environment.
Walking into Lin Xi’s home, it was a three-bedroom apartment. The area couldn’t compare with Pei Jiashu’s duplex apartment, of course, but it revealed traces of life everywhere, and there were several photos of Lin Xi when he was a child on the TV cabinet.
Lin’s mother was sitting on the sofa, looking Lin Xi up and down, then her eyes fell on Pei Jiashu behind Lin Xi.
Pei Jiashu stepped forward and placed the gifts on the table, “Auntie, I should have come to visit you earlier.”
The gifts were all expensive tonics, but Lin’s mother didn’t even glance at them and asked Lin Xi instead, “The internet says he’s already married, Lin Xi, explain this to me.”
Lin’s mother just sat there, but Lin Xi already felt the pressure coming from her.
Pei Jiashu immediately explained, “I’m sorry, Auntie, this is all my fault, I secretly married Lin Xi.”
Lin’s mother snorted lightly, glaring at Lin Xi, “Don’t take the blame for him, he’s my son, how could I not know who’s at fault. Lin Xi, you’re getting bolder now, you even dare to get married directly without telling the family.”
As she spoke, Lin’s mother stood up from the sofa excitedly, almost picking up the things at hand and throwing them over.
Lin Xi subconsciously dodged, Pei Jiashu pulled him into his arms, facing Lin’s mother directly, “Auntie, I asked Lin Xi to marry me, it’s all my fault, vent all your anger on me, don’t scold Lin Xi.”
Lin Xi knew that his mother would really hit people when she got angry. He broke free from Pei Jiashu’s hand and pushed Pei Jiashu behind him.
“Mom, he’s the senior I’ve been secretly in love with for many years, I just like him, I want to marry him. It was wrong of me not to tell you. This matter has nothing to do with Senior, if you want to hit or scold, come at me.”
Lin Xi roared at Lin’s mother.
Pei Jiashu was stunned. If it were a different scene, Lin Xi’s words would almost be a warm confession.
He took Lin Xi’s hand and stood beside Lin Xi.
Lin’s mother stared at Lin Xi in a daze. After a long while, Lin’s father walked in from the entrance, carrying groceries in his hand, “What are you arguing about? I heard you outside. Oh, this is Lin Xi’s boyfriend? He looks quite talented.”
“Uncle, hello,” Pei Jiashu greeted Lin’s father.
Lin’s father put the dishes in the kitchen, walked out, patted Lin’s mother’s shoulder to appease her, and poured her a glass of warm water, “Wife, don’t be angry, I think these two children have a pretty good relationship.”
“You…” Lin’s mother wanted to say something to Lin’s father, but because Pei Jiashu was still here, she didn’t say a word in the end.
Lin’s father stood up and asked Pei Jiashu, “Knowing that Lin Xi was coming back, I specially bought some dishes, can you cook?”
“I can.”
“He can.”
Lin Xi and Pei Jiashu said in unison.
“Then come to the kitchen and help me, Lin Xi, go talk to your mom, wash your hands and eat later.” Lin’s father quickly arranged everything for everyone.
Pei Jiashu followed Lin’s father into the kitchen.
Lin Xi stood hesitantly on the side of the sofa, looking at Lin’s mother. Lin’s mother seemed to be furious, turned her back to Lin Xi, and didn’t want to say a word.
He sat down beside Lin’s mother and called out coquettishly, “Mom.”
“Don’t call me Mom, do you still consider me your mother?” Lin’s mother turned her head and asked Lin Xi, “When did you get married?”
Lin Xi answered truthfully. Lin’s mother calculated that it was just a few days after Lin Xi graduated.
“Lin Xi, tell me, do you really like him? Marriage isn’t something you can just play around with, it’s for your whole life.”
Lin Xi was rendered speechless by Lin’s mother and could only bite the bullet and say, “I like him.”
Lin’s mother sighed and touched Lin Xi’s hand, “Then why did you hide your marriage from us? If you had told me earlier that you had found someone to marry, Mom wouldn’t have to worry about your pheromone disorder.”
Listening to his mother’s concerned words, Lin Xi’s nose felt a little sore. He had hidden such a big thing as marriage, but in the end, his mother was just afraid that he hadn’t married someone he liked and worried about his pheromone disorder.
Lin Xi even wanted to tell everything, but reason pulled him back in time.
“Because Senior he… he needed an omega to marry at the time, and I happened to need to marry an alpha, so I went to get married in a rush. At that time, I didn’t know how long we would last, so I didn’t tell you.”
Lin’s mother looked at Lin Xi solemnly, “So you like him, but he doesn’t like you?”
“That’s not true.” Lin Xi shook his head, “He likes me now too.”
Lin Xi was now afraid that he would turn into a long-nosed Pinocchio because he was lying too much, but looking at Lin’s mother’s suspicious eyes, he still continued to say bravely.
“He loves me very much now, he makes me my favorite dishes every day, he watches boring TV series with me, he decorates a beautiful flower room for me, and he also supports my career.”
Lin Xi said these things very naturally, because these were all things that Pei Jiashu really did for him, the bits and pieces of their daily life.
And these seemed no different from ordinary young couples.
Lin’s mother sighed and didn’t say much.
Lin Xi pulled Lin’s mother to watch TV, but he still paid attention to the movements in the kitchen from time to time. He had barely passed his mother’s level, and he didn’t know if Pei Jiashu could pass his father’s level.
In the kitchen, Pei Jiashu skillfully cut vegetables, stir-fried dishes, and his handmade suit worth tens of thousands of yuan was covered in the smell of smoke, but he didn’t care at all at this time, paying close attention to the traps thrown out by Lin’s father with highly tense nerves.
“Lin Xi was usually spoiled by us two, and he doesn’t do any housework at home. When I went home for the New Year, I suddenly found that this child seemed to have grown up. When we were cooking, he would actually come over to help us.”
Lin’s father said with some emotion. These words were clearly praising Lin Xi for being sensible, but in Pei Jiashu’s ears, they clearly meant: My child is held in the palm of our hands at home every day, and we don’t let him do any work. You made him start working when he came to your house.
Pei Jiashu immediately replied, “I usually cook at home, and Lin Xi accompanies me next to those dishes. Watching and watching, he also learned to do some simple things.”
“Lin Xi has been well-behaved since he was a child, but he’s just a little lazy,” Lin’s father said.
Pei Jiashu said with a smile, “Yes, he’s lazy, I can’t wake him up in the morning.”
“He’s also picky about food. He doesn’t like to eat those green vegetables at all. I have to make them in different ways before he’s willing to eat them,” Lin’s father said with a smile.
Pei Jiashu felt that he hadn’t been as tired as he was now after being busy all day, “That’s right, he thought he was getting fat some time ago, so he was just eating vegetable salads every day. Later, I took him for a morning run.”
“That’s pretty good.”
“Dad, what are you talking about?” Lin Xi finally couldn’t help it and walked into the kitchen. He had some snacks in his hand and stuffed them into Pei Jiashu’s mouth.
Lin’s father was heartbroken when he saw it, “You child, now that you’re married, you only know how to dote on your husband, you don’t know how to feel sorry for me, your old father.”
Lin Xi was amused by his father, and he pushed Lin Fu out of the kitchen, “Okay, then you and Mom go outside and wait for dinner, Pei Jiashu and I will do it.”
“Okay, then we’ll try Jiashu’s craftsmanship today.”
Lin Xi put the small bread in Lin Xi’s mouth again, “Are you hungry? I didn’t let you eat much at noon.”
“Did my dad make things difficult for you? I’m sorry, it’s your first day at home and I made you work. Let me help you.”
Lin Xi leaned close to Pei Jiashu and took the knife in his hand.
Pei Jiashu chewed the bread in his mouth and suddenly thought that when they first lived together, Lin Xi refused to enter the kitchen.
“After all, I abducted their only son, it’s normal for me to do some work, don’t you think so, Junior?”
