Chapter 436: Chapter 311: All for Me! (Part 2)

Xu Manning and Wu Wenyue actually felt awkward during this dinner. It wasn’t just because it was the first time meeting the parents as Li Peifeng’s girlfriends, but also because Zhao Qingge was at the table, and Old Zhao kept giving them meaningful or slightly teasing glances, which made Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning very annoyed!

What standing do you have, and what is our status? How do you deserve to dine with us at the same table? We’re here to meet Li Peifeng’s parents, why are you here causing trouble?

"By the way, Uncle and Auntie, there’s something I need to say."

Wu Wenyue spoke up, and seeing she had everyone’s attention, she continued, "Tomorrow, I’ll be taking Xiaofeng to my house. I’ve discussed this with the other two, but I think it’s necessary to inform you both, Uncle and Auntie."

"Yes." Xu Manning also added, "After the winter holiday, I also plan to formally introduce Xiaofeng to my parents. But we intend to keep our three-person relationship a secret for now, so please help us keep it confidential."

Yu Huizhi and Li Qiyuan put down their chopsticks, unsure of what to say.

"Well... it certainly is something that should be done..."

"Yeah, your auntie and I have no objections, go ahead."

Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi outwardly agreed, but inside they were in utter panic.

[If this gets out, and the parents of the two girls angrily come to us, what shall we do? If Old Wu gives me a couple of punches asking how I raised my son, how am I supposed to reply? Would I even have the face to see them again?]

[This is truly embarrassing! How will I ever play cards with Wenyue’s mom again...]

Xu Manning’s parents were okay, but both of Wu Wenyue’s parents were acquainted with Li Yu. Li Qiyuan would occasionally play basketball or badminton with Wu Wenyue’s dad, Wu Ankang.

Yu Huizhi would often play mahjong or do beauty treatments with Wu Wenyue’s mom, Gao Meihua.

And once Li Peifeng met Wu Wenyue’s parents, the Li and Wu families would be potential in-laws. Even though becoming closer through marriage is a good thing, their son’s relationship status was like a ticking bomb. They had to keep the three-person romance a secret with their children. But once Wu Ankang and Gao Meihua found out, wouldn’t the two families absolutely turn against each other?!

"I don’t think it’s very appropriate."

Zhao Qingge suddenly spoke up, sincerity in her voice: "Before meeting the parents, you need to recognize what meeting the parents actually means."

What does it mean, Xiaoge? Doesn’t it mean my husband is getting farther away from you?

Xu Manning frowned, "What do you mean?"

Zhao Qingge kept her expression normal: "Meeting the parents signifies your acknowledgment of your partner. It means you hope for a long-lasting relationship, so you need your family’s approval and try to integrate your partner into your family, laying the groundwork for future marriage and the merging of the two families. But your current relationship status is not stable and far from reaching this point!" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Wu Wenyue chuckled, "Thanks for your concern, bothering yourself with your student’s major life events, but I don’t think you have much say in this topic because we’re clear on our feelings for each other."

"Sure, Yueyue, don’t say that." Xu Manning smiled, "In the future, I hope to invite Professor Zhao to be a witness at my wedding."

"Well... uh, that’s possible!"

Wu Wenyue also smirked, "Why not have her be a bridesmaid, or maybe the emcee? Otherwise, you’re getting married, and Professor Zhao is still single, so being a witness wouldn’t be quite right."

Such a vicious tongue, who acts like this?

Zhao Qingge’s face visibly flushed red, wishing for the strength from her dreams to cast a spell and make the two girls disappear on the spot!

The atmosphere at the table became even more awkward. Li Qiyuan furrowed his brows, scanning the room. What puzzled and surprised him was why there was such deep hostility between the two girls and Zhao Qingge?

This question was worth reflecting on! After deep reflection, an immense fear lingered in Old Li’s heart, unable to dissipate...

"Marriage is a big deal; it really needs careful consideration."

Yu Huizhi hesitated, struggling for words, "Especially with you three in this kind of relationship, to be honest, your uncle and I still don’t quite agree with it. Maybe because you’re young and not mature in your thinking yet... so it’s best to wait for a period before considering it."

"Yes, you’re right."

The two girls agreed.

Li Qiyuan cleared his throat, "What your auntie said is what I wanted to say, and besides, I’m not sure if you’re aware of this girl Huang Tianxuan... can anyone tell me about her?"

As he said this, his eyes turned towards his son with a silent command; rebellious son, you speak!

"Tianxuan, huh."

Li Peifeng finally lifted his head from the rice bowl, thought for a moment, and said, "Mom and Dad, if you want to know about her, maybe next time. Next time, I’ll bring her over to let you meet her."

"Not for you to bring home!"

Yu Huizhi couldn’t help but scold, "Aren’t things messy enough for you?" After shouting, she immediately thought it was wrong, and quickly turned to Wu Wenyue and Xu Manning with a friendly smile, "Wenyue and Manning, Auntie wasn’t talking about you two."

"Yes, yes." Xu Manning nodded quickly, "We understand, you certainly should scold him, how could he consider bringing Huang Tianxuan to meet you too?"

"Huang Tianxuan has had little contact with him recently."

Wu Wenyue, who knew the inside story, calmly spoke, "Don’t worry, Uncle and Auntie; we can handle these things ourselves."

With this attitude being expressed, Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi didn’t have much to say, especially with the ’outsider’ Zhao Qingge present. The meal fell into a cold silence, and Li Peifeng, half-full, planned to chat a bit to lighten the mood.
