Chu Yi sensed a great disaster.

His mom told him to come back home and explain this matter to her thoroughly.

After hanging up the phone, he immediately called Qin Yiheng.

Of course, he was not careless enough to solve the matter by himself. He felt that since Qin Yiheng was the one who proposed the marriage and Chu Yi also helped deal with Qin Yiheng’s mother before, it’s reasonable that Qin Yiheng should also help him.

Qin Yiheng didn’t answer the first call. Chu Yi continued to call a second time, but Qin Yiheng still didn’t answer.

Chu Yi put down his phone and opened WeChat. He sent Qin Yiheng the word “urgent” and then continued to call.

Only after the fifth call, did Chu Yi feel a little less flustered and realized that Qin Yiheng was probably not available at the moment.

Might as well stop calling. Qin Yiheng will contact him when he sees the message anyway.

Chu Yi took a breath and continued to work. As expected, Qin Yiheng called not long later.

Chu Yi hurriedly picked it up.

Qin Yiheng, “What’s wrong?”

Qin Yiheng’s tone was as calm as usual, and what’s miraculous was that Chu Yi’s emotions also calmed down from this.

Chu Yi, “My mom found out I’m married.”

Qin Yiheng remained calm, “And so?”

Chu Yi felt that Qin Yiheng could not feel the seriousness of the matter.

He took a sip of water and said, “It’s like this, originally, my mom didn’t know. I wanted to wait until I’m ready before telling her. But didn’t I meet Zhao Zhongliang at the door of your company today? An auntie that Zhao Zhongliang knows, also knows my mom. So he told that auntie and that auntie told my mom. Now my mom’s coming to confront me.”

Chu Yi took another sip, “You should know, it’s very serious when children get married without telling their mothers.”

Chu Yi noticed it felt wrong the way that came out. Why did it sound like he was pointing fingers at someone?

But Qin Yiheng didn’t seem to think much of it, he immediately caught the main point, said, “What do you need me to do?”

Straightforward people are indeed different, Chu Yi immediately relaxed, “My mom asked me to come home for dinner tonight. So I’m thinking, can you accompany me home if you’re free tonight?”

Qin Yiheng continued to be straightforward, “Sure.”

This phone call was relatively relaxing for Chu Yi, it felt good talking to an understanding person.

After this, it seemed that the tension his mother gave him disappeared.

He even seemed to have an illusion.

The illusion that this matter wasn’t a big deal at all?

Chu Yi’s mother is a very gentle person. She does things gently and also speaks gently.

Chu Yi was a good kid with good grades, so his mother rarely gets angry in front of him and rarely criticizes him. When encountering anything, she will reason with Chu Yi first, only when they aren’t able to come to an understanding…

Actually, there didn’t seem to be a time when they couldn’t come to an understanding? Chu Yi was a very obedient child.

Even if he wasn’t obedient, it would only be an opposition in his heart, he would always comply in appearance. On top of everything, he has to let his mother be happy.

Life wasn’t easy for this mother and son pair. They have a very good relationship and have almost no conflicts.

Time passed in a flash and night fell.

Chu Yi had already set a time with Qin Yiheng. He left work on time and when he walked to the door of his studio at the appointed time, Qin Yiheng’s car just happened to roll over.

Qin Yiheng rolled down the car windows a little bit, he called out to Chu Yi, “Get in.”

Chu Yi did not get in, he leaned on the side of the window and said, “How about I drive my own car? Or else I’ll have to come back to drive it back later.”

Qin Yiheng did not agree, “First time going home. Arriving in two separate cars isn’t good.”

Chu Yi, “Ah.” Each in their own cars do make them appear a little distant. It wouldn’t be good if it was seen by someone.

Chu Yi thought as he opened the door of the car and got in.

Chu Yi, “Thank you.”

Qin Yiheng, “It’s nothing.”

Chu Yi, “You’re quite thoughtful.”

Qin Yiheng had it’s a small matter expressed on his face, “Mn.”

The car quickly left this street and not long later, Chu Yi’s phone rang. It came from his mom.

Earlier, Chu Yi told his mother on WeChat that he would bring Qin Yiheng back as well.

In order to ease the atmosphere, he simply edited the profile Qin Yiheng gave him into a word document and sent it to his mother. Then he also added some life-oriented words.

He’s called Qin Yiheng.

He does this for work.

He’s a senior from the same school as me.

I haven’t known him for long, but he’s good to me.

He praised everything about him, all this and that.

“Xiao-Yi.” His mom asked, “Does he have anything he can’t eat? I bought some food and just realized, what if he has something he doesn’t like?”

Chu Yi remembered what Qin Yiheng said that day they ate hotpot, and answered, “He doesn’t. He eats everything.”

His mother, “That’s good, when are you guys arriving?”

Chu Yi, “Half an hour.”

His mother, “Okay, I’m pretty much done here as well.”

Chu Yi, “Mn.”

After the call ended, Chu Yi suddenly made an “ah” sound, he turned to look at Qin Yiheng, “Um, we have to go to the supermarket.”

Qin Yiheng was confused, “Why?”

Chu Yi licked his lips, “You’re coming to my house for the first time, you should bring something.”

Qin Yiheng shook his head, “There’s no need, I already bought it.”

Chu Yi, “Oh.. ah? Thank you.”

Qin Yiheng softly sighed, he turned to look at Chu Yi, seemingly a little unhappy, “You’re very polite.”

Chu Yi scratched his head and didn’t know he had poked this gentleman’s nerves again.

The car quickly arrived outside the house, Chu Yi got out of the car and Xiao-Chen also opened the door for Qin Yiheng. The few people walked to the back of the car together. Then, Xiao-Chen opened the trunk.

Seeing the things in the truck, Chu Yi exclaimed “wow” in surprise.

Chu Yi, “You bought so much?”

Qin Yiheng said, “It happened so suddenly, I just bought everything I could think of.

Chu Yi sucked in a breath of cold air.

Xiao-Chen took out the gift bags one by one. After a rough count, there had to be at least eight bags.

Cosmetics, food, wine, skincare products…

Although it seemed complicated, he really did just buy everything he could think of.

Qin Yiheng looked at Chu Yi, “Is it alright if Xiao-Chen comes up?”

Chu Yi thought for a bit, he never experienced this before, “Should be fine.”

However, Xiao-Chen, “President Qin, I’m not alright.”

Who brings a driver the first time seeing your mother-in-law?

Plus Xiao-Chen was dressed in a suit. Those who didn’t know would probably think that he’s a bodyguard.

It isn’t good if they scare Chu Yi’s mother.

“But I can help you guys carry these things up.” Xiao-Chen suggested.

Qin Yiheng nodded, he didn’t have any objection.

Since Xiao-Chen wasn’t coming to his house, Chu Yi said to Xiao Chen when he got into the elevator, “Have you had dinner?”

Xiao-Chen, “No.”

Chu Yi was a little worried, “Then you must remember to eat.”

Chu Yi only mentioned it based the consideration of his relationship with people around him and because Xiao-Chen was Qin Yiheng’s driver.

But what Qin Yiheng heard didn’t seem to be this case.

He inadvertently frowned and wondered why his husband was suddenly caring for Xiao-Chen.

Does Xiao-Chen look like he didn’t know how to go eat dinner?

And.

Chu Yi never cared about his dinner problems.

With a ‘ding’, the elevator interrupted Qin Yiheng’s thoughts. He looked up, they had reached the floor.

Chu Yi, as the host, let the other two people exit the elevator first. While, Xiao-Chen, as the driver, self-trained himself to always go out last.

So in this case, Qin Yiheng stood at the entrance of the elevator and watched as the two people went back and forth.

Qin Yiheng felt unpleasant.

Chu Yi’s hand was even on Xiao-Chen’s shoulder.

“What are you guys doing?”

Seeing that the elevator door was about to close, Chu Yi hurriedly pressed the ‘open door’ button.

He stopped shirking and went out first.

“This way.” Chu Yi took out the key as he led the other two to his house.

However, the door wasn’t locked. Likely because his mother deliberately left it unlocked and was waiting for them to come.

Chu Yi opened the door and shouted inside, “Mom.”

Chu Yi’s mother quickly walked over, she was stunned for a bit when she saw three people at the door.

Her son always wears casual clothes all day, it was nothing unusual. But the other two, they were both wearing suits.

One was a little shorter than Chu Yi, looked very kind, and was carrying many bags of all sizes in his hands.

The other was half a head taller than Chu Yi, very formal and handsome.

Mother Chu didn’t dare to judge casually, she could only say,“You guys are here.” He looked at the things in Xiao-Chen’s hand and said, “And even bought so much stuff.”

Xiao-Chen smiled at Mother Chu and said, “Hello auntie, these are all bought by President Qin.”

Mother Chu, “Ah.” She understood something.

Mother Chu quickly gave way, “Come in, come in.”

Chu Yi took all the bags from Xiao-Chen’s hands and put them on the side.

Xiao-Chen said, “Then I won’t be bothering you guys.”

Seeing this, Mother Chu asked curiously, “Hm? Why’re you leaving? Stay for dinner.”

Xiao-Chen smiled, “Thank you, auntie. I still have something else to do.”

Mother Chu nodded, “Then come again next time.”

Xiao-Chen agreed and then left.

Chu Yi changed his shoes and went inside to wait. Only when Qin Yiheng came in, did Chu Yi remember about the issue of Qin Yiheng’s mysophobia.

But he couldn’t find any new slippers at home at the moment.

And his mother was still smiling on the side while waiting.

Chu Yi walked over a little and said to his mother, “Mom, go pour some water.”

His mother shook her head, “Water? I made tea.”

Chu Yi only wanted his mother to leave, “Tea is fine too, have you served it yet?”

“Not yet.” His mother patted him on the shoulder, “Then I’ll pour some tea for you guys.”

Chu Yi let out a breath of relief, “Okay.”

Even after standing for so long, Qin Yiheng still hadn’t come in. Sure enough, he was troubled by the slippers at the door.

Chu Yi took off the slippers he was wearing and put them at the entrance.

Chu Yi’s voice wasn’t loud, he approached a little closer, “These are my slippers, nobody else wore them.” Chu Yi thought for a bit and added, “If you’re still not used to it, I’ll go down and buy you a pair. The supermarket is quite close.”

Qin Yiheng shook his head, seemingly compromised, he put on Chu Yi’s slippers, “No need.”

Because of the excellent timing, they could eat dinner not long after entering.

Mother Chu prepared tableware and chopsticks for everyone and then called over the two in the living room to eat.

Chu Yi also called Qin Yiheng over.

To be honest, Chu Yi was a little nervous.

First of all, he felt that the relationship between Qin Yiheng and himself had not yet been dealt with, there was no progression nor regression.

And now there’s his mother on top of it.

Although his mother had been very happy and hospitable up to now, Chu Yi seemed to sense the sadness in her eyes.

Who knows whether it was because Chu Yi didn’t tell her about his marriage or because Chu Yi got married.

Several people ate silently. Because there was an extra person, the three people didn’t talk much.

Chu Yi thought it would go on like this. Unexpectedly, his mother still spoke.

“When did you get married?”

Chu Yi came prepared. He immediately took out the marriage certificate from his pocket when he heard this.

Mother opened it and looked at it, “It’s already been so many days.”

His mother asked again, “When did you guys meet? How come mom has never heard you mention this person before?”

Chu Yi gulped.

During this moment, Qin Yiheng, who was beside him, suddenly spoke.

“Auntie.” Qin Yiheng put down his chopsticks and looked very serious, “Although I haven’t known Chu Yi for a long time, we both think we are very suitable for each other. I’m very comfortable being with him and I also like being with him. Which is why I put forward the idea of getting married.”

Chu Yi was full of confusion.

Mr. Qin, what’s the matter with you?
