Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 422 We've shared secrets before!

Chen Ping wasn't paying for lunch this time; Chu Yunting, who was riding high on his success, was instead the one treating.

So after Chu Xin ordered three large meat dishes, even Zhou Yichen, who was also very "greedy", ordered a signature dish that was expensive and time-consuming – braised pork knuckle.

This once drew envious and jealous glances from their neighbors.

"She's so young and yet she's so extravagant. Who can live like that?"

"These young girls nowadays are so materialistic. Could it be that they're only interested in these two guys because of a few dishes?"

Of course, there are also ordinary people with sound values.

"Bullshit! The young man is handsome and dashing, but these two girls are ugly? You didn't see the right person. The girls are very attentive. You can't just make up stories about people because you didn't get a few bites of meat, can you?"

"Exactly! Those two young men ate the most, so why are they so hostile towards the women?"

Regardless of what the other three people thought, Chu Xin genuinely felt incredibly awkward.

However, even though there was a lot of food, not a single dish was wasted.

Chu Xin and Chen Ping, being women, naturally have small appetites. Coupled with the intense stares from those around them while they ate, it was easy for them to suffer from indigestion. They were the first to finish eating.

The rest were handled by Zhou Yichen and Chu Yunting.

There is absolutely no way there will be leftovers.

Finally, after leaving the restaurant under the gazes of everyone, Chu Xin felt as if she had come back to life.

"Go do what you need to do. You two can use the car. Don't worry about us."

After Chu Xin finished speaking, she pulled Zhou Yichen away.

She kept her hand on his arm, pinching his flesh in several different places until she was satisfied before letting go.

His eyes were smiling, but he spoke through gritted teeth, "Zhou Yichen, are you even going to hold on?!"

Her grip was incredibly strong; even though Zhou Yichen tried his best to tense his muscles and reduce the amount of soft flesh, it still hurt terribly.

After moving his arm to ease the pain, Zhou Yichen said, "If you're still hungry, let's find something else to eat."

Chu Xin snorted coldly, "Eat shit, what are you eating?"

She wanted to walk more to quickly digest the food that had accumulated in her stomach at the state-run restaurant, so she could make up for it with a nice, satisfying meal that evening.

Zhou Yichen was both amused and exasperated when he learned of her idea. He put his hands in his pockets and obediently followed behind. "Let's go, I need to digest my food too."

"Ah!"

Chu Xin sneered, "Serves you right!"

……

"The big boss once said that dating without the intention of marriage is just playing around," so Chu Yunting made a rather grand preparation for his visit.

The incident began when he called home in the afternoon to tell Li Xiu about his visit to the Shangren Girls' House in Weinan County.

Li Xiu just chuckled at that moment.

She really is her good son. Sister Yanli had already written to her about it several times, but her good son only informed her when he was about to go to her house. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't angry.

First, she hasn't met the person in person and can't figure out their temperament, which will cause problems for her and her mother-in-law in the future.

Second, Chu Yunting is a real tiger; he suddenly showed up at their door, not afraid that their parents would beat him out.

Third, Chu Yunting was wrong. Chu Xin's values ​​regarding relationships had already opened Li Xiu's eyes. She was genuinely afraid that Chu Yunting also had that kind of mentality when interacting with other girls.

It doesn't matter to men, but girls can't withstand being hurt.

Of course, Li Xiu was limited by the times and didn't see things far enough ahead. Actually, this is how things should be when you're in love. When the feelings are right, you'll naturally get married!

Women are the ones who benefit the most from getting to know each other before marriage and finding out that things aren't right for them, and cutting their losses in time.

Moreover, more and more people will prefer this way of dating in the future.

However, the premise is that the two of them must uphold their bottom line.

Despite her many thoughts, she didn't want to spoil the mood on the spot. In addition, since Zhou Yichen, a "reliable" person, had affirmed Chen Ping, Li Xiu immediately asked Chu Yunting to add some more ingredients.

With this addition, it started to emerge.

So the next day they drove straight to the tenement building, leaving Chen Ping, who was waiting there, stunned.

Besides a bag of apples, there were two cans of malted milk powder and two bottles of canned syrup, all packed in a large mesh bag.

Then there was a large pastry box. Chen Ping couldn't see what was inside, but it looked quite heavy.

It's heavy, isn't it? It's full of sugar and pastries.

Fruit candies, milk candies, shrimp brittle candies, brown sugar, and white sugar were all placed inside, along with crystal cakes, peach crisps, some mixed treats, and sponge cakes. It took Chu Yunting a while to decide that it was acceptable.

If Chu Xin hadn't said that if he kept fiddling with it, it would be inedible, he might have continued to fuss over it a little longer. He didn't even consider that it was something to be put in one's mouth; how could one eat it if he kept touching it like that!

Then there were two large tins of tea. According to Li Xiu, there should have also been cigarettes and alcohol, which were all prepared for the bride's father.

Of course, since this person no longer exists, we'll skip that part.

The four people who got out of the car were each carrying something. Those who had witnessed the three handsome men and beautiful women's impressive presence yesterday had a deep impression of them, and now that they saw them bringing gifts, they were even more curious.

"Whoosh!" In an instant.

The people and their vehicles were surrounded.

"Who are Chen Ping and the others? What's your relationship with them? What are you doing here?"

"These three people are really good-looking. Are they from out of town? How did you all meet?"

"What are they doing here? Why are they bringing so much stuff? What's your relationship with them?"

Chen Ping was bombarded with questions and didn't know which one to answer, while Chu Xin was driven crazy by the noise. Was this some kind of census?

Soon, the shrewish old woman from yesterday came to the rescue.

"Why are you asking such silly questions? They're obviously here to visit Chen Ping's relatives. Stop crowding around them!"

He then winked at Chen Ping, signaling her what she was waiting for, saying that if she didn't go in soon, they would have to snatch her away on the spot.

Chen Ping snapped out of her daze, quickly took the net bag containing the apples from Chu Xin, and led the person upstairs.

"Make way, everyone make way."

The five people quickly ran upstairs, while the old woman stood at the top of the stairs, glaring angrily at those who wanted to follow.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you have to chase us all the way to our doorstep? Hongying's family has had a lot of bad luck. They've finally managed to share in some good fortune, so let's not join in the fun."

Yesterday, the sordid things Chen Zhonghua and Wang Cuihua did spread throughout the entire residential compound, and everyone knew how pitiful Yu Hongying and her children were.

Sure enough, those people's passionate hearts were suddenly moved by their conscience, and they all stopped in their tracks.

The old woman smiled contentedly, subtly squeezing the few pieces of fruit candy in her palm—the ones Chu Xin had secretly slipped to her when they were surrounded.

I thought to myself, that pretty woman isn't so fierce after all!

upstairs.

Upon hearing the noise, Yu Hongying immediately opened the door to her home and stood somewhat awkwardly at the entrance to wait for someone to come up.

Apart from Chen Jiadong, who was more poised and confident, the other three younger children were as excited as little mice eager to be put into a rice bin.

Oh, it's our relatives! They're bringing delicious food to visit us today!

This novel experience, which they had never had before, has kept the three little ones excited since yesterday.

Thinking of the snacks their older sister brought back yesterday, they couldn't help but lick their lips again.

The sound of footsteps echoed from the stairwell. Yu Hongying straightened her clothes again, put on a smile, and waited for the person to come up.

Soon, she saw Chen Ping first, then Chu Yunting, then Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen; they were all acquaintances.

Yu Hongying took a deep breath and stepped forward to greet them.

Seeing what the group was carrying, they suddenly stopped. "Why are you carrying so much stuff again?"

After Chen Ping returned yesterday, she told Chu Yunting about her affair and also brought home some biscuits, snacks, and fabric.

Yu Hongying knew that she would be officially visiting today, but she didn't expect that she would bring so many gifts. She was really shocked. How should she respond to such a generous gift?

Chen Ping glanced at Chu Yunting. She wanted to know too. She had brought those things home yesterday because she didn't want to attract too much attention, but she didn't expect him to make such a big fuss as soon as he arrived today.

Neighbors who hadn't come downstairs were all peeking through the cracks in their doors, watching this scene. Chu Xin noticed and said directly:

"We can talk about this at home, in-laws!"

Yu Hongying was taken aback. "What?"

Chen Ping quickly pushed her towards home, gently telling her, "Chu Xin is Chu Yunting's sister..."

"Gah..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Yu Hongying closed her eyes and fainted. Chu Xin happened to be behind her and caught her with quick reflexes.

Everyone present: ...

Chu Xin: The worst time my reputation was damaged was when someone fainted just from hearing that her future son-in-law was related to her...

But why? We've shared secrets before!
