Chapter 318: My Boyfriend Will Come to Our Home
As this thought flashed through his mind, Chen Fan could no longer sit still.
First, he sent a text message to Su Ruochu.
"I've changed my mind. I've decided to go back to Luocheng tomorrow."
Soon, Su Ruochu's reply came back.
"Ah? What happened? Didn't you say you wouldn't come back during the summer vacation?"
Chen Fan smiled and replied again.
"I've made up my mind. I want to go to your home and meet your parents."
"I want to have a proper meeting and talk with them about our relationship."
As expected, after seeing this message, Su Ruochu called him directly.
Chen Fan smiled slightly, almost able to imagine her nervous and surprised mood at the moment.
"Hello..."
"You...you want to come to my home?"
Su Ruochu's voice was very soft on the other end of the phone, clearly hiding in her bedroom to make the call secretly.
"Yes."
Chen Fan explained with a smile, "I've thought it over carefully. I don't want to wait any longer. I want to solidify our relationship as soon as possible."
"There are still two years until we graduate from university. I can't keep letting you get caught between your parents and me every time."
"I don't want you to be uncomfortable."
"I want to meet your parents, explain everything clearly to them, and hope to gain their approval. At the same time, I also hope that in the future, we can date openly..."
Upon hearing Chen Fan's words, Su Ruochu felt touched, but she was also a bit restrained.
After all, Chen Fan's change of mind was too sudden.
"But... but..."
After hesitating for a few seconds, Su Ruochu reminded him in a low voice, "But my mom doesn't have a good impression of you right now."
"If you come over now, you might be turned away at the door."
Chen Fan grinned, "I don't care."
"She's going to be my future mother-in-law. Even if she beats me up, it's still better than letting my wife suffer."
"Wife, I'm telling you this in advance so you can mentally prepare yourself."
"Of course, if you think it's too sudden and you're not ready, then I won't go."
Chen Fan left the choice to Su Ruochu.
After a two-second silence on the phone, Su Ruochu finally spoke up in a light voice.
"I'm willing."
A weight instantly fell off Chen Fan's mind.
"Really?"
"No matter what happens tomorrow, I'll face it together with you."
"Tomorrow, I'll be waiting for you at home."
Chen Fan laughed triumphantly.
"Wife, then you just stay put at home and wait for your husband to come and visit your future parents-in-law in person tomorrow..."
After that, Chen Fan briefly asked her a few more questions, mainly about what her parents liked.
As a result, Su Ruochu said her mother usually liked buying clothes and also liked jade, stones, and jewelry. As for her father, he drank alcohol but rarely smoked, and his only hobbies seemed to be fishing and drinking tea.
After bidding Su Ruochu good night, Chen Fan lay on the sofa and started thinking about what gifts to buy for the elders.
Thinking that since it was the first visit, if he didn't get their preferences right, he might as well buy more gifts. After all, the more gifts, the better.
Chen Fan also planned to stop by his own home on this trip back.
It was already so late at night. Tomorrow, he would need to buy things... it would probably take half a day. By the time he got back to Luocheng, it would likely be afternoon.
But going in the afternoon for the first visit didn't seem ideal.
For the first time, Chen Fan felt nervous about doing something.
After thinking it over, he sent Su Ruochu another text message.
"Wife, change of plans. I'll go to your place the day after tomorrow in the morning."
"What's up?"
"I need to prepare tomorrow. Can't go into battle unprepared."
Su Ruochu sent back a sweating emoji.
Then Su Ruochu's second message came.
"Husband, thank you."
Seeing this message, Chen Fan smiled.
He understood Su Ruochu's meaning, and Su Ruochu understood his intention.
This feeling of mutual affection and understanding was truly wonderful.
Chen Fan smiled and replied to Su Ruochu, "This is what I should do."
"Get some sleep now. The day after tomorrow, you'll see how I perform and win over your parents."
Although he boasted to his wife, after sending the text message, Chen Fan still felt a bit anxious.
For the first visit, he should probably be a bit more formal, right?
Should he wear a suit?
After thinking it over, he decided against it. After all, he was still a university student. Wearing a suit might seem a bit out of place.
After deciding to wear casual clothes tomorrow, Chen Fan started considering transportation.
Since it was the first time going to his wife's home, he couldn't take the bus, right?
It seemed a bit late to buy a car now.
After some thought, Chen Fan called Feng Pojun.
He asked him to take the Audi A6 from the club and have it washed early tomorrow morning.
That way, he could drive that car back.
Although it might seem a bit too mature for a young person to drive a car, the price was right there, and it could give him a bit of confidence.
As for gifts...
He would figure that out at the mall tomorrow.
......
On the other side of things...
After ending her chat with Chen Fan, Su Ruochu didn't go to sleep.
Instead, she quietly listened for any noises outside, then opened her bedroom door and walked out.
"Sneaking around the study, who knows who you were talking to on the phone."
Lin Wanxiu stared at her daughter and nagged, "Were you talking to that boy again?"
Sitting on the sofa watching TV, Su Xuecheng looked at his wife with some helplessness.
"Our daughter is already in university. Can't she have some private space?"
"You as a mother are being too strict."
"Anyone can say nice words, right? But can saying nice words manage our daughter well?"
"But look at our daughter. Ever since she got together with that boy, what has she learned?"
"Now she's even learned to lie. A young lady actually went on a trip so far away with him... I can't even imagine what would happen if there was an accident..."
Su Xuecheng scratched his head helplessly, clearly unable to win this argument against his wife.
Seeing her husband not saying anything, Lin Wanxiu turned her gaze toward her daughter again.
"You used to be so good and obedient. You would tell your mother everything on your mind."
"But now? Ever since you met that boy, what have you become?"
"Lies upon lies, deceiving your elders..."
"Dad, Mom, I have something to tell you."
Su Ruochu didn't listen to her mother's continued nagging. Instead, she walked over and sat on the sofa, putting on a very serious demeanor.
"It's an important matter."
Su Xuecheng and his wife exchanged a look, then also sat up from the sofa.
"What is it, daughter? What's the matter?"
Su Ruochu glanced at her mother opposite them, then lowered her head and said softly,
"Chen Fan said he'll come to our home the day after tomorrow."
Su Xuecheng and Lin Wanxiu: "......"
"You... you said what?"
"That boy wants to come to our home?"
The two of them looked dumbfounded, clearly thinking they had misheard.
However, Su Ruochu mustered her courage and said loudly, "Yes. Chen Fan said he wants to come to our home to visit you two."
Lin Wanxiu's expression was quite exquisite.
"He still dares to come..."
As Lin Wanxiu was about to lose her temper, Su Xuecheng suddenly raised his hand and cut off his wife's words.
"Don't say anything first."
"You..."
Seeing her husband's serious expression, Lin Wanxiu opened her mouth, then snorted coldly and remained silent.
Su Xuecheng then stared at his daughter and asked seriously,
"Did he propose to come on his own, or did you ask him to come?"
Su Ruochu lowered her head, "He requested to come on his own."
Su Xuecheng continued, "Did he say why he wants to come to our home?"
Su Ruochu seemed a bit embarrassed, "He... he said he wants to talk to you about our relationship. He doesn't want me to be caught in the middle and have a hard time. He wants to be able to be with me openly in the future..."
Su Xuecheng fell silent for two seconds, then suddenly laughed.
"Well, at least he has some sense of responsibility!"
