Chapter 160: Wanna Go Together?

However, at this moment a punch had landed in his eyes!

DUAK!

Bob immediately curled up in pain on the ground.

Ryan easily punched Bob and fell on the ground. The loud noise probably came from the asphalt road that was damaged because his big butt was firmly landing on it.

Bob stood with one eye closed. He was a little surprised that his opponent could fight. However, he lunged back at Ryan. This time, he fell even harder.

After he got the cuts in his eyes and chest, Bob's self-confidence turned as thin as a paper. He then stood up with difficulty and said, "Just wait for my revenge!"

Then he ran away from the place.

When the fat man was out of sight, Ryan looked at Megan with a smile. "Beautiful day, right?"

Megan only answered, "Thank you for your help."

"Don't worry, we're not strangers after all, aren't we?" Ryan waved his hand. Hearing this somehow Megan smiled a little. But everything collapsed when Ryan said, "Besides, you are still indebted to me once, so if today is counted, you have doubled it."

Megan was completely speechless at this, her face turned sullen again.

"Hey, hey, I was just kidding," Ryan said with a laugh. "What are you doing here?"

"Shopping," Megan then lifted her two shopping bags.

"What a coincidence, I'm also going shopping." Ryan then shot his chance,  "Want to go together?"

"Sorry. Another time."

Damn, Ryan had to change his tactics!

"Okay then, I just want to accompany you so that this incident doesn't happen again. But if you are the one who refuses then I can't force you," after saying that, Ryan pretended to walk while waving his hand.

"Wait!"

'Got it!'

"Have you bought anything?" Ryan, who walked side by side with Megan, was curious about the contents of the bag.

"Apart from personal needs, the rest is just medicine," Megan replied.

"Medicine? What medicine?" Ryan looked confused. The disease in Megan's chest should have been cured thanks to him, but why did she still buy medicine?

"Medicine for rheumatism," Megan replied. "My mother has had rheumatism for years. The medicine ran out recently so I helped buy it,"

Rheumatism was really a troublesome disease, especially for aged people. The affected person couldn't get through the day without it. When the air was cold, this disease would be painful.

However, rheumatism was just a trivial matter for Ryan.

"Rheumatism? It's not a serious illness so no need for medicine. Have you forgotten who I am?" Ryan said with a smile.

After hearing Ryan say that, Megan remembered that her chest disease had been cured by Ryan. Not to mention that the man said he had also mastered traditional medicine.

"Cough." Ryan cleared his throat and tried to break the silence. This awkward atmosphere was not fun for him. However, they kept walking without saying anything. Megan still didn't say anything, so Ryan was a little disappointed with her. It was clear that the bait he threw was very tempting, but why hadn't Megan taken it yet?

"What's wrong? Are you sick?" Megan woke up from her thoughts and looked worriedly at Ryan. 

Ryan just shook his head, he only pretended to cough so that the atmosphere was not awkward.

"I completely forgot that you are good at traditional medicine. If you can, can you visit my mother?" Unexpectedly, Megan finally took the bait.

"Don't worry, leave it all to me. I will make sure that your mother's illness goes away without a trace. In fact she will feel younger for a few years," Ryan looked confident.

"Then, can you see her now?"

......…

Megan then took Ryan to her mother's house. Ryan was a little surprised, Megan's mother did not live in her house opposite Valerie's. In fact, the house was located in middle to upper housing.

"Does your mother live alone?" Ryan asked.

"Since I taught in university, I need a place close to my workplace so I don't get too tired. The house you saw at that time is just the house I rented. My mother's house is my real house." 

Soon, they arrived at Megan's main house.

The woman then took the key and opened the door.

"Mom, I'm home," Megan shouted and put her luggage on the table.

Ryan immediately swept the entire room with his eyes as soon as he entered. The guest room was quite large and beautiful. This two-story house was pretty spacious. It also had a large piano downstairs.

Ryan casually sat on the sofa. At the same time,  Megan's mother, who was about 60 years old, came out of the kitchen.

"How come you got home so fast?"

Megan's mother looked younger than her age. Even though she covered the wrinkles on her face with makeup and dyed her white hair, people would think she was only in her early 50s.

As she walked out of the kitchen, her eyes fell on her daughter. However, after that she saw a male figure sitting on the sofa. In an instant, Megan's mother smiled broadly.

"Good afternoon auntie," Ryan said while standing up.

'Maybe he… ..'

Megan immediately wanted to explain the reason for Ryan's arrival, "Mom, this is Ryan. He is… "

"What are you trying to explain? I already know who he is. I was just surprised because you didn't tell me that you would bring your boyfriend home," Megan's mother suddenly became excited. 

Her daughter had been single for years, making her anxious. In two years, her child would turn 30 and still didn't have a husband. But being a good mother, she didn't worry too much about it.

And today her daughter suddenly brought a man home. How could she not be excited?

Ryan and Megan were shocked when they heard that.

Boyfriend?

This misunderstanding really happened so fast. However, Ryan couldn't help laughing while Megan looked embarrassed because of her mother. Seeing her excited mother, she couldn't bear to say that Ryan was not her boyfriend.

Megan's mother continues to assess Ryan. The more she paid attention to him, the happier her heart became. Ryan's face looked stern, it seemed that this person was not afraid of anything. Moreover, his upright posture made him look muscular and handsome. Given her daughter's slightly rough nature, the two of them seemed to match.

"Come on, why do you keep standing? Come on, sit down, sit down," Ryan then sat back on the sofa. He was okay with this enthusiasm but Megan was a little confused about how to react. Her mother seemed impatient to have grandchildren.

"Meggy, go to the kitchen and make a drink. Ah, sorry I forgot. Young people like you don't like drinking tea, right? How about a beer?" Megan's mother kept on babbling without letting Ryan respond. Helpless, Ryan could only nod.

Seeing Megan's expression, Ryan intended to help her by saying, "Excuse me auntie, today I..."

"Yes, I know what's your purpose for coming here," Megan's mother smiled. "How long has your relationship been? How did you two find each other? How old are you? Where do you work? Have you bought a house with your own car? Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't afford to buy your own house or car. The important thing is you already have a stable job before you get married. Then when are you planning to get married?"

This barrage of questions was like an assault rifle, it left Ryan speechless. He could only look helplessly at Megan.

Ryan's eyes seemed to apologize for not being able to serve her mother. It looked like the old woman couldn't wait to see her daughter get married.

Megan herself felt a little happy, this was the first time she saw Ryan's overwhelmed expression.

However at this moment, her mother noticed the grocery bags on the table.

"Son, I was happy with your idea of ​​bringing a present when you first met your in-laws. But what I want to see is you guys quickly get this relationship official. When do you guys want to have children?" She asked with a smile.

Seeing Megan's mother's happy expression, Ryan could only break out in a cold sweat. Wasn't he just asked when he got married? Why did the question stray further away into having children? All of that took a process and he never even touched Megan!

"Mom enough..." Megan blushed as she heard this. 

"Meggy, I'm afraid that you will live alone. I have been waiting for this moment for a long time. Let me enjoy this moment."

"Mom, he's not my boyfriend," Megan said with a flat face.

Hearing those words, this 60-year-old mother felt that all of her hair instantly turned white.

Not her boyfriend?

Seeing the old woman's confused expression, Ryan also said with a bitter smile, "Auntie, we are just friends. That's our relationship for now. We are nothing more than that,"

"Oh..." Megan's mother seemed to understand Ryan's meaning. She then smiled as she said, "Then how long do you want to be friends? My daughter is not with anyone."

Why did her mother suddenly seem to sell her like that?
