Chapter 350: What did you really want to say?
"Mom..."
Su Ruochu's throat choked up, she almost cried when she opened her mouth.
However, a hand suddenly reached out and gently patted the back of her hand.
Su Ruochu turned her head in surprise, looking at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan then smiled and said, "Auntie, don't worry. Everything is completely fine."
"As long as you agree, I'll go back and tell my parents about this. Then we can find a time for the two families to get together properly."
"That would be wonderful."
Lin Wanxiu excitedly slapped her thigh, becoming more and more satisfied with Chen Fan.
This kid was simply too understanding of human emotions and the world, how did every sentence he said make one feel so comfortable?
Su Ruochu looked at Chen Fan with some grievance, but Chen Fan winked at her slyly, then gently patted her back with his palm.
After sitting for about half an hour, Chen Fan said he wanted to leave.
Su Xuecheng stood up to see him off, "Xiao Chen, we're going back tomorrow, and you and Ruochu will be going back to school tomorrow, so you don't need to come over specially to send us off."
Chen Fan hurriedly said, "You're leaving so soon? Why not stay a few more days, I can take you uncle and auntie around for a tour."
Su Xuecheng smiled and shook his head.
"No need. There's still a lot of things to take care of at home."
"Besides, Luocheng and Yunhai aren't that far apart, we'll have plenty of time to see each other in the future."
Chen Fan nodded, "Alright then."
"Uncle, auntie, you can rest assured, I'll take good care of Ruochu."
Su Xuecheng looked at his daughter, "This girl has been spoiled by us since she was little and hasn't suffered any hardship. You're a boy, so you need to be more tolerant and indulgent with her."
Chen Fan glanced at Su Ruochu and grinned: "Uncle, you can count on me for that. I always treat her words as gospel."
Su Xuecheng was amused.
"But it's not good to just obey her blindly either. When two people are in a relationship, they need to be reasonable with each other."
After a few more pleasantries, Chen Fan prepared to leave.
"Dad, I'll go back with Chen Fan."
Su Ruochu also said she wanted to leave.
However, Lin Wanxiu spoke up, "Ruochu, wait a moment, mom wants to talk to you some more."
Su Ruochu was stunned, looking rather unwilling.
But Chen Fan smiled reassuringly, "Uncle and auntie are leaving tomorrow, why don't you just stay at the hotel tonight? I can go back alone."
Although very unwilling, Su Ruochu couldn't find the words to refuse.
"I'll go send him off."
Su Ruochu could only use the excuse of seeing Chen Fan off to leave the room together.
In the hallway, the two stood by the door waiting for the elevator.
Chen Fan turned his head to look at her with a smile, his gaze making Su Ruochu feel somewhat shy and vexed.
"What's wrong? You seem to be in a bit of a mood since just now."
Su Ruochu lowered her head, somewhat fidgeting as she said softly, "Those things my mom said earlier...you..."
"You're not angry, are you?"
Chen Fan smiled, "Why would I be angry?"
Su Ruochu became somewhat agitated, "Her attitude changed so much from before and after. Earlier she was saying all those things, making it sound like I'm only with you now because you've become rich."
"And my mom is clearly just trying to solidify our relationship, just because you...you've become wealthy."
Chen Fan smiled as he looked at Su Ruochu, reaching out to gently hold her hand.
Soft, slightly cool to the touch.
It felt very comfortable to hold.
"Let me ask you, are you with me only because I'm rich now?"
"I..."
Before Su Ruochu could answer, Chen Fan shook his head with a smile.
"Of course not. Because when you agreed to date me, I was still just a poor guy."
"Do you remember the day you agreed for me to pursue you? That day I felt like I was the happiest person in the world."
"You were the school goddess that all the guys joked about, yet you actually agreed to go out with me, a poor kid. You know how happy and excited I was?"
Su Ruochu's face turned red from Chen Fan's words, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Back then I had nothing, but you never looked down on me. Even during the summer when I was promoting websites, you secretly helped me out with money..."
"So you're really my lucky charm. It's not that you're with me because I'm rich, but rather I became rich because you're with me."
Su Ruochu opened her mouth as if wanting to say something, but Chen Fan continued to ask,
"Second question, do you want us to solidify our relationship as soon as possible?"
Su Ruochu shyly avoided meeting Chen Fan's gaze, lowering her head with a reddened face as she lightly nodded.
"Mmm."
"There, that's settled then."
"Your mom's suggestion is exactly what I want. I can't wait for our parents to meet. It would be best if we got married tomorrow and you became my wife."
Su Ruochu's face reddened as she lightly scolded, "You wish."
Chen Fan smiled and ruffled Su Ruochu's head.
"Alright, alright. Don't think too much about these things."
"Auntie means well for you, I can understand."
"Anyway, as long as I can marry you, I don't mind anything."
Su Ruochu leaned lightly into Chen Fan's embrace, her heart feeling warm and cozy, experiencing a sense of happiness she had never known before.
Chen Fan wasn't a boyfriend for sweet talk, but his casual remarks often struck straight into Su Ruochu's heart, making her feel warm inside.
After seeing Chen Fan off, Su Ruochu finally returned to the hotel.
In the room, Su Xuecheng was brewing tea.
"Dad."
"Chen Fan left?"
"Mmm."
"Dad, did mom ask me to stay here tonight?"
Just as she finished asking, Lin Wanxiu came out from the bathroom.
"Ruochu, come over here, mom wants to ask you some questions."
Su Ruochu could only walk over, and the two sat down on the bed.
"Mom, what did you want to ask?"
Lin Wanxiu looked at her daughter, her eyes full of gratification.
Her daughter had grown up and had good judgement, immediately finding such an excellent son-in-law.
"Tell mom properly, what businesses does Chen Fan have?"
Su Ruochu frowned, thinking for a moment.
"Besides the club we visited today, he also has an internet company. Oh right, there's also an internet cafe near the university district..."
Lin Wanxiu hurriedly asked, "Have you been to his company before?"
Su Ruochu shook her head.
"No, I haven't."
"Was today the first time you visited that club?"
"Yeah."
Lin Wanxiu asked somewhat urgently, "So Chen Fan has never taken you to see it before?"
"What's there to see at a construction site?"
Su Ruochu didn't understand what her mother was really asking.
"Before this, Chen Fan did ask me if I wanted to go take a look, but I rejected him."
"You silly girl..."
Lin Wanxiu glanced at her husband slowly brewing tea beside them, then continued questioning her daughter.
"Then let me ask you, do you understand Chen Fan's entrepreneurial side?"
"What do you mean?" Su Ruochu didn't quite get it.
"I mean, do you understand the things he's doing now for his business?"
Su Ruochu shook her head.
"Chen Fan is very busy, I rarely ask about his business unless he tells me himself."
"So you don't know anything about what goes on at his company?"
Su Ruochu looked puzzled, "Why would I need to know?"
"You silly child...so naive."
Lin Wanxiu stared at her daughter speechlessly. "You're his girlfriend, how can you be so detached from it?"
"Let me ask you, that manager Ding we met at the club today, do you recognize her?"
Su Ruochu thought for a moment and said, "I've seen her once before, but I'm not familiar with her."
Lin Wanxiu shook her head speechlessly.
"You child, you're too naive."
Su Ruochu looked at her helplessly.
"Mom, what are you trying to say?"
