Chapter 581: I Will Take Responsibility for Youyou!
"What are you not telling Mom and Dad?"
Cheng Ruosheng and Chi Dayi hurried in, both looking rather upset.
"Shiyu, Xiao Mi, you’re all here." Cheng Ruosheng’s expression eased a bit upon seeing outsiders present, but not by much.
"You tell me, what’s the thing you’re planning to keep from us?"
Her sharp gaze landed on Chi Youyou. How could Youyou stand up to her own mom? She was about to surrender when Song Shiyu’s voice rang out beside her.
"Aunt Cheng, actually it’s nothing much; I was just asking Youyou when I could officially visit as her boyfriend."
Chi Youyou: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
What the heck?
What does ’visit officially as her boyfriend’ mean?
How come she didn’t know he became her official boyfriend?
Shen Xiaomi and the others exchanged glances and nodded in agreement with Cheng Ruosheng.
"Official boyfriend? You guys..."
"Aunt Cheng, we got together initially because of the engagement, but after spending time, we both recognized each other. However, Youyou thinks it’s a bit early to tell you, so she said to keep it from you for now."
Chi Youyou: ...
Since when did this happen?
When did the two of us recognize each other!
Cheng Ruosheng heard this and smiled, "Why keep it a secret? You’re adults now, Aunt and Uncle aren’t that old-fashioned! Right, honey?"
"Ah... right, right, right!"
Chi Dayi gritted his teeth hearing Song Shiyu’s words, feeling not too pleased.
But under his wife’s relentless hints, he could only nod in agreement.
No way, can’t let this kid off easy, need to teach him a lesson later!
"Thank you, Aunt, thank you, Uncle. Rest assured, I will take good care of Youyou and won’t let her be wronged."
Chi Youyou: ...
Thank you!
"What do you mean by this?"
Cheng Ruosheng pulled Chi Dayi outside, leaving the space to the youngsters. Chi Youyou immediately asked after they left.
"Helping you out."
"This is helping me? You’re just making things worse! They might genuinely think we’re together, and you don’t want to cancel the engagement?"
Song Shiyu froze at her words, feigned innocence, and said, "When did we say we’d cancel the engagement?"
"Wasn’t it you..."
"Youyou, look, there’s more drama online again!"
[Chi Youyou is a liar, claiming to be from Phoenix Mountain at the start of school, gaining our sympathy, and making us buy her fruits!]
[I refuse to believe there’s no capital backing her!]
[Her fruits are top quality, I checked, they’re ridiculously expensive outside! Some aren’t even available for purchase with money!]
...
Someone posted her fruit details, and various self-proclaimed classmates came out to scold.
The online comments caused another wave.
"Honey, we know what’s going on, so why don’t we ask about it?"
After being pulled out by Cheng Ruosheng, Chi Dayi asked, puzzled.
The reason they came back in a rush was due to Cheng Shihuai’s phone call, informing them about the online situation, wanting to help address it.
"Let them handle it themselves!"
Cheng Ruosheng held her husband’s hand, "Moreover, it’s clear Youyou doesn’t want us to know, she’s afraid we’ll worry. Since that’s the case, we’ll act like we know nothing. Besides, Shiyu’s there, he won’t let Youyou be wronged."
"How do you know he won’t?"
"I just know! Alright, let’s go pick a gift for Old Madam Song!"
"Okay..."
