Shen Shuangyu was stunned and even forgot to swat Li Xun's hand away.
Li Xun looked at her blank expression and was a little surprised.
If it had been in the past, she would have been unhappy with it a long time ago. Shen Shuangyu hated it when he touched her hair and pinched her face when he had nothing to do. However, his hands were itchy and he couldn't help but look at her. .
"Meet, meet your parents?"
Shen Shuangyu finally found his voice.
Although she has accepted the fact that she will marry Li Xun in the near future, deep down she always thinks that it is just a task, and it will help her leave the Shen family legitimately, so there is no harm in it.
But, meeting parents and stuff like that...
It always makes her feel like her scalp is numb.
What's more, Shen Shuangyu had heard of Li Yuanjing.
Frankly speaking, Li Yuanjing is not as good as his father in all aspects. Since taking over the Li family, he has also focused on keeping his position and has not done much. His performance is quite satisfactory and not satisfactory.
Because the Li family has a good foundation, as long as Li Yuanjing's mind is not confused, no one in Winter City can overpower the Li family.
But what if we look at this person from the other side?
That may be conservative and traditional, not liking change and preferring to maintain the current status quo.
So, how would Li Yuanjing view her prospective daughter-in-law?
I guess I won't be too satisfied.
As for Li Xun’s mother…
Shen Shuangyu was even less optimistic about his relationship with her.
It’s not that there aren’t good mothers-in-law in this world. After all, you can’t defeat everyone with one stroke. There are also the kind of daughters-in-law who get along with their mothers-in-law more naturally and harmoniously than with their own mothers.
It's just that there are too few, and not everyone has such good luck.
"What's wrong?"
Li Xun also noticed something strange about Shen Shuangyu. He took the initiative to retract his hand, raised his brows, and looked at her doubtfully.
It's just a meeting, having a meal together, it's not a big deal, why does she seem so resistant, and even her face becomes ugly?
"Can I not go?"
Shen Shuangyu licked his lips and asked nervously.
"So it turns out that the ugly daughter-in-law is afraid of meeting her parents-in-law? There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Besides, I will be with you, so don't worry."
Li Xun smiled.
What a child he is, worrying so much about such a thing.
Shen Shuangyu knew that he must have misunderstood.
It's not that she was nervous, let alone Li Yuanjing and his wife, Shen Shuangyu had not seen anyone who was more noble than them, and they could still communicate appropriately.
But once he met Li Xun's parents, the nature of the whole matter suddenly became serious.
There was a feeling that everything was imminent, as if she would soon become someone else's wife and be completely bound by marriage.
I have finally found a little bit of the feeling of love. Do I have to go directly to the next step?
Thinking of this, Shen Shuangyu, who had never had any experience in relationships, suddenly shuddered.
She reached out to pick up the water glass and used the action of drinking water to hide her uneasiness.
"I'm not ready yet. It will take some time."
Putting down the cup, Shen Shuangyu took a deep breath and spoke as calmly as possible.
"Besides," she emphasized her current difficulties again without waiting for Li Xun's answer, "you know, the competition I am participating in will officially start soon. I am not a major in this field, so I can only try my best to explore on my own. , it will definitely take more time than others..."
Li Xun had already heard about Shen Shuangyu's participation in the design competition and knew that she was not lying.
"It's just a meal, it won't take long. Besides, my mother is not in good health. Even if we want to stay there for a while, she won't be able to handle it."
After thinking for a while, Li Xun suggested again: "As for your competition, do you want me to find someone to teach you? There are many people in the company's design department. I'm afraid the director and the like don't have time, but I have just joined the job for a couple of years. There are still a lot of young people here.”
Shen Shuangyu shook his head hastily: "That's not okay! Although this is not cheating, it goes against my principles of doing things. I don't want to force myself to do things I don't want to do!"
She refused flatly.
As for the meaning of the last sentence, Shen Shuangyu hoped that Li Xun could understand it.
He did understand what she was saying.
"Actually, it was my mother who asked me to take you back. She has been in poor health in the past six months, and she is not very cooperative with the treatment. She always secretly pours the medicine prescribed by the doctor into the toilet and flushes it away. Me and I Dad has tried to persuade her many times, but to no avail. So, I thought that if I could get you to meet her, maybe she would be happier and take medicine."
Having said this, Li Xun also sighed slightly.
"I know I have selfish motives for doing this, and it may make things difficult for you."
"What disease does she have? It sounds like it's pretty serious."
Shen Shuangyu rarely heard about Mrs. Li, and in her impression, Li Yuanjing rarely took his wife out to socialize.
Unexpectedly, she turned out to be a sickly beauty.
"It's been a problem for many years. My dad said that the first time I got sick was about twenty years ago. At first, I just had headaches when the seasons changed, and then it became more and more frequent. We have been to many hospitals, even abroad. She had been treated several times, but the treatment effects were very average, so the doctor could only advise her to rest and stay in a good mood."
For the Li family, no matter whether it is wealth or status, it is difficult to have an incurable disease.
But after so many years, He Yunshu's health is basically the same as before, with little improvement. Attacks are particularly severe during the change of seasons. In recent years, he has been accompanied by coughs, low fevers, syncope and other symptoms.
"Then I...I'll go see her."
Biting her lip, Shen Shuangyu made up his mind.
Although it is not an easy thing to meet Li Xun's parents, it is human nature for his parents to want to see him when he is in charge of his political affairs.
Especially those with chronic illness like Li Xun's mother are probably more likely to have random thoughts, worrying that something will happen to them one day and that they will not be able to see their son get married and have children, leaving him with regrets.
"Okay, I'll pick you up when the time comes. Don't worry, it won't take long. It's just a meal and a sit at home. Just accept me. You have to marry me anyway. You will be indispensable for every new year and festival in the future. You want to go back with me."
Li Xun said with a natural expression.
"Bah! That's so natural. Be careful if I regret the engagement!"
His proud look made Shen Shuangyu angry and embarrassed, and he cursed.
"you dare?!"
Knowing that she was just talking casually, Li Xun still straightened his face and said seriously: "I don't like to hear this, and you are not allowed to say it again in the future!"
"tyrant!"
Shen Shuangyu ignored him. She was already thinking about what kind of gift she should prepare for her first visit so that it would be polite.
Also what color and style of clothes to wear, what kind of makeup to wear...
Hey, meeting parents and stuff like that are so annoying!
