Chapter 119 - MENG BAO, YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED DIFFERENTLY!

[Yang Menghuo POV]

"Hm… right, we don't know if this Young Man will marry you in the future, but at least he has a goodwill to meet us," Mr. Shi said. He nodded and patted Yang Menghuo's shoulder. "Young man, I appreciate your goodwill to come here. That's commendable, at least."

Yang Menghuo was pissed when he heard that. They made it as if he didn't like to be here and was forced with his Jie. 

Even worse, his Ying Jie told him to stop speaking because it would give Mr. and Mrs. Shi hopes about the future. 

'What's wrong about the future? Isn't that the most important thing? That's literally the reason I come here! I want to marry Ying Jie!' Meng Bao complained in his heart, but he wasn't allowed to speak because Ying Jie banned him from doing it.. 

All he wanted to do was to tell about all his sincerity with Ying Jie to her parents. So they would believe that Menghuo was serious about having relationships with their daughter.

But turned out, even Ying Jie herself didn't believe him, which actually got him pissed and frustrated at the same time. 

Shi Ying somehow knew that Meng Bao was angry at her, but he was truly an honest idiot when it came to love, so he didn't understand what she was thinking. 

Because in Meng Bao's head, all he thought about was something that was in front of him, he didn't seem to care about what would happen next. So Shi Ying had to balance it with logic. 

Shi Ying realized that Meng Bao had a sour face in front of her parents, so she elbowed him, signaling him to act properly. 

Thus, Meng Bao showed his forced smile and then accepted all their lecture about his Ying Jie and how she lived before she went to Beijing for work. But Meng Bao decided to ignore everything because he was sulking inside. 

Knowing that Meng Bao's fake smile would crack anytime soon due to his bad mood, Shi Ying then halted her parents' lecture and said, "Why don't we eat now? Meng Bao—I mean, Menghuo and I are hungry." 

"Meng Bao?" Her mother asked in surprise. "Is that his small name that you gave to this young man?" 

"N—No-"

"YES!" Yang Menghuo suddenly snippet and then yelled out loud. "YES! MENG BAO IS AN ENDEARING NAME THAT YING JIE GAVE TO ME! AND I'M ABSOLUTELY PROUD OF IT!" 

Shi Ying was jaw-dropped when she heard that claim out loud. Her parents were also shocked by his willingness to be called 'Meng Bao' or cute bun.

Because they were sure that Menghuo wasn't joking about it. 

"O—Okay then, good job, Mr. Yang Menghuo," Mr. Shi, Shi Ying's dad, finally pointed at the food and then said, "My wife has cooked a lot. I thought Shi Ying would come a bit later," Mr. Shi said. 

Yang Menghuo nodded with a smile. He then tried to lobby Mr. and Mrs. Shi. 

"Excuse me, before this, may I call you as Uncle and Aunt?" Yang Menghuo asked politely.

Oh, sure! Sure!" Mrs. Shi said while Mr. Shi replied with a nod.

Shi Ying's jaw dropped when she realized that Yang Menghuo had the intention to get close to her parents for the sake of showing his sincerity.

'Seriously, this guy is very emotionally driven. How am I supposed to control him now? I'm afraid a helicopter will farm, and he would make some chaos in the farm.'

**

Yang Menghuo and Shi Ying enjoyed the food that was served by Aunty Shi.

"How is it? Did you ever eat this food?' Aunty Shi asked. 

"Aunty, it tastes really good. The same as what Ying Jie often cooked for me," Yang Menghuo said, then he turned his head at his Jie. "I often came to her house with groceries, then she will cook something for me."

"The dishes are very similar to this, so I assume that she got her amazing cooking skill for you, Aunty Shi," Menghuo added. 

"Wait, you often visit my daughter's apartment and stay there?" Uncle Shi peered at Yang Menghuo suspiciously. 

"Yes, she often cooks me dinner, and all her home-cooked food is delicious."

…

Shi Ying really wanted to smack Meng Bao right now. She already told him to stop, but he didn't even bother. 

Shi Ying kicked Meng Bao's shin, and Meng Bao winced a bit, but it didn't stop his crazy guts. 

Uncle Shi's gaze darkened when he found out that Yang Menghuo often visited Shi Ying's apartment, "What are you two doing in the apartment? Do you know that we don't like free sex, right? If my daughter is pregnant, then you'll be forced to marry her. There is no other way."

Shi Ying was already holding her breath. She had guessed that Meng Bao would say something even more ridiculous just because he felt like it. 

Meanwhile, Yang Menghuo thought he could lie to Ying Jie's parents, telling them that they slept already, and Ying Jie was pregnant with his child, so he had to take responsibility.

That way, he would be able to marry Ying Jie wouldn't be any hindrance, right?

But when he opened his mouth and was about to say something, Ying Jie suddenly shoved a big meatball into his mouth, "AHK—!" 

Shi Ying stomped Meng Bao's feet as hard as she could to stop him from speaking rubbish that would worsen the situation. 

She didn't understand either. Many men usually dodged or run away as soon as they discovered that their girlfriends were pregnant.

But this man, this supposedly business mafia and a young billionaire, was trying to get himself tangled, even though they hadn't done anything yet. 

Yang Menghuo stared at his Ying Jie as if they had telephony. They talked with their eyes. 

'Jieee! Why aren't you letting me speak?!'

And Shi Ying replied with her eyes, 'You're crazy! You'll ruin our future if you say that I'm pregnant!'

'It's okay, Jie! That's the start of our future!'

Shi Ying facepalmed so hard, she wanted to slap some sense in Meng Bao's head.

It was so ridiculous that Shi Ying thought Meng Bao's head must've been wired differently.

"There is nothing happening between us, Mom, dad. Yeah, Yang Menghuo often visited my apartment, but that's because he can't cook and he lives nearby. So he always asked me if he could come over and have dinner." 

"Really?" Her dad asked. "Shi Ying, you're not pregnant, right?" 

"Wha, not at all!"

"Then why is your stomach bulging like a baby bump? It's like two or three months pregnant," her mom suspected.

Shi Ying looked down on her bulging belly, and she cursed in her heart, "THIS IS BECAUSE I GOT FAT! OKAY, I GOT FAAATTT!"

Shi Ying yelled frustratedly, and her parents zipped their mouths instantly. 

Yang Menghuo pulled the meatball out of his mouth and replied to pacify his beloved Jie, "J—Jie, you're still beautiful, really! Whether you're fat, thin, alive, or dead, you're still beautiful in my eyes!"

"MENG BAO! YOU'RE NOT MAKING THIS ANY BETTER!"

"W—Wha, but I'm trying to make you feel better…." Yang Menghuo whimpered like a sad puppy, and Shi Ying's anger deflated immediately.

Shi Ying sighed and then said, "Okay, okay, you already make me feel better."

"Hehe, did I make you feel special?"

"Uh-huh, you make me feel special," Shi Ying said while patting Meng Bao's head. 

"I will make you feel special every day, Jie."

…

Mr. and Mrs. Shi stared at the relationship dynamic between Shi Ying and Yang Menghuo. Somehow, they felt that Shi Ying fit more as the husband, and Yang Menghuo fit more as the wife just by the way they were acting to each other. 

But at least, it was already proven that Yang Menghuo loved their daughter so much, it was proven by the glimmer in his eyes every time he stared at Shi Ying.

It was full of admiration, passionate but sincere love, and trust as if they had been in a relationship for a long time.

While Shi Ying was staring at Menghuo with such doting, adoring, and warm gaze as if she had also loved this man for a long time, even though they had just met not long ago.

Honestly, Mr. and Mrs. Shi didn't need to prove anything at all at this point. 

Even though Shi Ying and Yang Menghuo hadn't realized how deep their love was.

Father Shi didn't like Yang Menghuo previously because he looked like a pampered young master from the city. Menghuo wouldn't be able to handle his daughter, who was independent, strong, and stubborn. 

He felt that Shi Ying should've just married someone from the village as well, or at least, someone older that didn't demand too much from his wife. 

But after witnessing this, it would be blind for him to admit the warm love bubble around them. 

Thus, Mrs. Shi whispered to her husband's ear, 'I don't think it's fair to separate them. They look so good together.'

'True, true, let's just see what will happen next. If this Young Man wants to propose to Shi Ying, then I will give them my blessing.'
