But Brother Lin Chen hadn’t said anything. If Brother Lin Chen had his own plans, and she was unable to hold herself back by saying it first, what would happen if Lin Chen imagined that she would resort to any means to obtain him such as exposing their relationship to his mother!
Forget it, forget it. I’ll just pretend I don’t know…
“Okay, Auntie Liang!” Lu Yunfan nodded obediently.
When the sweet soup was ready, Lu Yunfan accompanied Liang Mulan to eat it. She then took the spare ribs packed by the Lin family’s servant before Liang Mulan’s chauffeur sent her to the gallery.
Lu Yunfan was so happy that she felt she was floating up in the air. She was even in a better mood when she saw the spare ribs that Liang Mulan prepared for her. It felt so good to be liked by her future mother-in-law!
Moreover, her future mother-in-law was too nice!
Love!
The Lin family was so loving!
Other than loving Brother Lin Chen, her future mother-in-law and future sisters-in-law… were also the reasons she wanted to marry into the Lin family!
Lu Yunfan took a photo of the spare ribs and uploaded it to her social media. She then warmed up the spare ribs and ate them all.
In the late afternoon, Lin Chen came to fetch Lu Yunfan for dinner, but Lu Yunfan was already full after eating Liang Mulan’s spare ribs.
In the car, Lu Yunfan’s eyes sparkled as she told Lin Chen about her trip to the Lin family today…
“Since Brother Lin Chen didn’t tell Auntie Liang about our relationship, I didn’t dare to tell Auntie Liang about it either. I still feel quite guilty! It feels like I’m lying to Auntie Liang…”
When Lin Chen heard this, his lips curled up slightly, but he wasn’t in a hurry to expose the fact that his mother already knew that Lu Yunfan was his girlfriend.
Lu Yunfan’s fingers tugged at her clothes, a little worried that Liang Mulan would get angry when she found out that she was Lin Chen’s girlfriend in the future…
“Brother Lin Chen, do you think Auntie Liang will be angry if she finds out that I’m your girlfriend? Will she think that I lied to her?” Lu Yunfan implored Lin Chen.
“No…” Lin Chen’s tone was firm. “You didn’t know she was my mother when you went there today!”
“That’s right! I really didn’t know when I went there!” Lu Yunfan looked enlightened, then immediately became happy. “But… When I see Auntie Liang again, I will have to tell her that you’re my boyfriend. Auntie Liang is so nice to me, and I feel bad for lying after I found out the truth.”
Lin Chen took the opportunity to turn the steering wheel and glanced at the pleading Lu Yunfan.
It wasn’t as if Lin Chen didn’t know what Lu Yunfan was thinking. The young lady wanted to tell Liang Mulan about their relationship so that his family would find out about their relationship. If, after one month, Lin Chen felt that the two of them weren’t suitable for each other and wanted to break up, at least their family could hold him back.
“Okay?” Lu Yunfan looked at Lin Chen with her big watery eyes, pleading.
“Let’s wait for a month!” Lin Chen said after some thought.
Feeling a little down, Lu Yunfan replied in a low voice. She leaned against the passenger seat and fiddled with her fingers. “Then… When I see Auntie Liang again, what if she still wants to introduce me to her son? What if… Auntie Liang shows me your photo? Won’t I have to tell her that you’re my boyfriend?”
Lin Chen suppressed the smile on his lips and heard Lu Yunfan’s soft mumble…
“If that’s the case, then you can say it…” Lin Chen said calmly.
Ah?
Lu Yunfan turned to look at Lin Chen…
Did he agree so easily?
“Can I really say it?” Lu Yunfan asked Lin Chen in uncertainty.
“Right, you can say it…” Lin Chen couldn’t hide the smile in his eyes anymore. “But it’s only limited to the two conditions above.”
“Okay, okay, okay! I got it!” Lu Yunfan grabbed her seatbelt agitatedly. If she had a tail, it would have already started shaking.
Lin Chen glanced at Lu Yunfan and smiled.
“Then, if Auntie Liang still wants to introduce a boyfriend to me, I’ll say that I already have a boyfriend, and my boyfriend is the most handsome in the entire universe. Moreover, he is Lin Chen, the super famous president of the Lin Corporation in Haicheng! Only my boyfriend fills my heart! My boyfriend is my heavens, my earth, and my entire world!” Lu Yunfan started sucking up to Lin Chen. “I only have eyes for my boyfriend. His handsomeness is earth-shattering, and he’s incredibly cool. I’m already at the feet of my boyfriend and never wish to get up again!”
Although Lu Yunfan’s flattery was a little too exaggerated, she might have succeeded in sucking up to Lin Chen…
Hence, Lu Yunfan continued, “If Auntie Liang showed me your photo, I’d ask Auntie Liang in surprise, why is there a photo of my boyfriend? How about that?”
“Pretty good!” Lin Chen nodded.
Before Lu Yunfan could cheer, Lin Chen added, “That way, my mother will find out about your stupidity, so she can tolerate any stupid things you’d do…”
Lu Yunfan’s jaw dropped. “Brother Lin Chen, why are you so annoying!”
Lin Chen smiled a lot more when he was with Lu Yunfan.
Even today, he was in a better mood than usual. Ever since he met Lu Yunfan, his smile never stopped.
When they arrived at the restaurant’s entrance, Lin Chen took out a bouquet of flowers from the trunk and handed it to Lu Yunfan as usual. Lu Yunfan blushed as she took it and said to Lin Chen, “Brother Lin Chen… the flowers you gave me last time are still at home. In the future, you don’t have to give me flowers every time. It’ll be fine as long as it’s a holiday and an anniversary! Also… my favorite flowers are sunflowers.”
Lin Chen nodded. “Got it…”
That night, because Lu Yunfan was already full with the spare ribs in her stomach, she didn’t eat much.
After getting into the car, Lu Yunfan knew that Lin Chen was going to send her home straight away, so she suggested, “Brother Lin Chen… let’s go to take a walk at the beach! Every time we go out for dinner, you always send me home right away. We don’t even have the time to have a good chat!”
Lin Chen has minimal dating experience. Lu Yunfan had also only learned how to date from reading romance novels. But in theory, she knew more about dating than Lin Chen. Therefore, in this relationship, Lu Yunfan was the one who took the initiative.
Although Lin Chen didn’t know much about dating, he wouldn’t reject a reasonable request from a woman he acknowledged as his girlfriend. He nodded and drove Lu Yunfan to the beach.
There weren’t many people coming to the beach for a walk because it was still cold this month…
Lu Yunfan saw that even though there weren’t that many couples at the beach that day, the ones that were there were either holding hands, walking arm-in-arms, or hugging. Lin Chen and her were the only ones who maintained a safe distance. No matter how she looked at it, she felt awkward.
“Brother Lin Chen…” Lu Yunfan quickly chased after Lin Chen. “You’re walking too fast!”
“Sorry!” Lin Chen slowed down his pace.
Lu Yunfan stood beside Lin Chen, trying to reach out for his arm. “Brother Lin Chen, look at the other couples. They’re all holding hands…”
