The Lu couple said that they were heading to Capital City. However, both Song Xing Xing and Lu Xun would not expect that the couple would head over to Y City first to meet with Song Xing Xing's parents first.
Lu Xun was speechless when he heard from Zhang Yu Han that his parents had checked in to the hotel in Y City.
It was not difficult for him to figure out what was his parents trying to do.
By the time Lu Xun got the news, it was already too late for him to do anything. Lu Xun was sure that his parents would already go to the Song's residence to meet up with his in-laws.
He could settle his work first and let Assistant Bei Yuan handle the matter in the company before heading to Y City with Song Xing Xing.
The moment the flight touched down, Lu Xun found out his parents' whereabouts first. Hearing that they were in the Song's residence, the couple headed to the house first.
Lu Xun was preparing himself to face Song Xing Xing's father. However, the moment they entered the house, the couple found that the atmosphere in the room was quite lively. The sounds of laughter could be heard from the outside.
The couple exchanged their glance and walked in to see their parents gathering in the living room. Lu Jiang seemed to be telling them something, making everyone laugh.
Ye Ling Feng was the first to notice the couple's presence. There was a glint of surprise in her eyes. She stood up and smiled. "Xing Xing, Lu Xun, you guys are back."
Hearing their name, everyone turned their attention to the couple.
"When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell us?" Ye Ling Feng asked. "I could send someone to pick you up."
Lu Xun glanced around the room to examine the atmosphere. Then, his eyes stopped at his father-in-law. His hand subconsciously tightened to a fist. Noticing that her father-in-law did not look at him with an unpleasant look, Lu Xun finally heaved with relief.
Ye Ling Feng quickly invited everyone inside and instructed the auntie to prepare a few extra cutleries for the couple.
"Mom, why didn't you tell me that you will be coming to Y City?" Lu Xun asked when he finally got the chance to talk to his mother. "Didn't we agree that you and dad would go to Capital City first and can head to Y City together?" If Yu Han did not tell me that the two of you checked in into his hotel, I wouldn't know that you would be here."
Zhen Wen Yu shot his son a look. "Didn't I come here for you? You did not know how anxious I was when I heard what was going on. I won't be at ease until I talk to your in-laws. Fortunately, Xing Xing's parents were both understanding and did not blame you for it."
Lu Xun concluded that his parents' appearance might have helped to ease his father-in-law's views on him.
His mother was a good talker and she might have helped him to win some points.
"If you told me and Xing Xing earlier, we could come over to Y City together," Lu Xun said.
"Your dad and I already know where your parents-in-law are staying. We don't need you as our guide. Besides, this thing is something that we have to talk to Xing Xing parents in private. You kids should not be involved."
The corner of his lips twitched. He was already in his thirties but his mother still thought of him as a kid.
Lu Xun hugged his mother on the shoulder. "Mom, thank you."
Zhen Wen Yu narrowed her eyes at her son. "If you want to thank me, just treat your wife better and don't get involved with this kind of scandal again. Stay away from Anna and her family."
"Mom, I know."
"Or else, you could try and work hard to let me hug my grandchild."
His breath stuck in his throat and Lu Xun let out a cough. "Mom, this is not something that I can control. It also depends on our luck."
Zhen Wen Yu was sharp and she quickly took this hint that the couple was now trying to have kids. As this thought came to her mind, she was no longer as angry at her son.
"This is why I reminded you to work hard." Zhen Wen Yu patted her son on the shoulder.
Lu Xun touched the tip of his nose upon hearing his mother's reminder. He would also like to work hard. But these were not something that he could say out loud. His mother would be happy but his wife would be embarrassed.
Song Xing Xing saw her husband and mother-in-law were whispering in the corner and walked over. "Mom, let's go and have lunch together."
Zhen Wen Yu's smile widened when she saw her daughter-in-law. Song Xing Xing held her mother-in-law in her arms and the two walked together, leaving Lu Xun behind.
The family ate their lunch while discussing their children's wedding. Mostly, it was Ye Ling Feng and Zhen Wen Yu who spoke to ask the other's opinion.
After the meal, Lu Xun's parents decided to head back to the hotel to rest. Ye Ling Feng talked to them to stay for a while longer but hearing that Father Lu still had a video conference afterward, Ye Ling Feng quickly arranged for the driver to send them to the hotel.
Song Xing Xing was dragged away by her mother to look at a few stuff related to the wedding while Lu Xun decided to organize their luggage in the room.
As the two of them were planning to stay in Y City until the wedding, there was a lot of stuff they had to bring along.
Lu Xun was helping his wife hang her clothes into the wardrobe when someone knocked on the door. He walked over to the door and was not surprised to see his father-in-law.
"Dad." Lu Xun called. His voice was full of respect.
"What are you doing?" Song Chen asked. "Are you busy?"
"I'm not busy."
"That's good." Song Chen nodded. "Come with me to the office. Let's have a little talk."
"Alright." Lu Xun nodded as he closed the door behind him.. He followed his father-in-law to his office and swallowed as the anxiousness increased.
