"Liu Lulu said: Mom, he has other things to do, let's do it another day!"
Mother Liu said: I knew you would find someone just to fool me. Get over here for a matchmaking immediately, or I won't have you as my daughter.
Liu Lulu said: Mom, isn't it okay if I bring him home for dinner?
Mother Liu said: I'll have the food prepared, remember to come back early. Have fun, goodbye little Mo!
Moe Wenjie said: Goodbye, Auntie!
Mother Liu hung up the phone.
Liu Lulu looked pale and said to Mo Wenjie apologetically: "I'm sorry to have inconvenienced you!"
Mo Wenjie said: It's alright!
Liu Lulu said: Xueqing, what should I do?
Su Xueqing said: There's nothing else to do, just let Mo Wenjie come home for dinner with you.
Liu Lulu said: But I'm afraid that if anything happens, the consequences will be even more serious.
Su Xueqing said: Don't worry, he has experience with this sort of thing; he won't blow our cover.
Liu Lulu surprisedly looked at Mo Wenjie and said: "He has experience with this sort of thing?"
Su Xueqing said: He pretended to be my boyfriend's assistant the other day.
Liu Lulu giggled and said: "He really does have a special talent for that. It's great, Xueqing. With his looks, you could make a fortune by renting out a boyfriend!"
Su Xueqing said: Liu Lulu, you're joking!
Liu Lulu giggled and said: "With such good resources, it's a waste not to make use of them!"
Su Xueqing pouted and said: "Liu Lulu, if you say one more word, we'll leave right away, and you'll have to go home alone!"
Liu Lulu quickly smiled and said: "Xueqing, I'm sorry. Please forgive me!"
Su Xueqing said: "Mo Wenjie can come home with you for dinner, but you must promise to send him back right after we finish eating."
Liu Lulu said: "Xueqing, don't worry. I understand. It's a loan that's meant to be returned, right?"
Su Xueqing said: "Mo Wenjie, you and Lulu go to her house. I'll wait for you here."
Mo Wenjie said: Can I resign?
Su Xueqing said: Do you want to go back on your word? It was you who said it would be two months, didn't you forget?
Mo Wenjie sighed: Such a hassle!
Liu Lulu said: Mo Wenjie, let's go. The sister's fate is in your hands now. Whether I can pass the exam smoothly depends on you.
Su Xueqing said: Hurry up and go, and come back quickly!
Mo Wenjie followed Liu Lulu back to her house.
Liu Lulu said: Mom and Dad, we're back! I'd like to introduce you to my boyfriend, Mo Wenjie. My dad is Liu Qiusheng, my mom is Zhang Hongmei, and my younger brother is Liu Kai.
Mo Wenjie said: Hello, uncle and aunt!
Zhang Hongmei said: "Little Mo, hello. Please sit down!"
Mo Wenjie said: Thank you, auntie!
Zhang Hongmei said: How long have you been dating Liu Lulu, little Mo?
Liu Lulu said: It's been three and a half months.
Zhang Hongmei said: "Did I ask you that? What are you doing sticking your nose in where it doesn't belong?"
Liu Lulu stuck out her tongue and said: "Mom, he's quite shy, so I answered for him."
Zhang Hongmei asked: "What do you do for a living, little Mo?"
Mo Wenjie said: "Security guard!"
Liu Kai suddenly said with a laugh: "Sister Liu, have you been watching too many soap operas? Do you really think there are scenes where a strong female president turns around and rises above a lowly security guard?"
Liu Lulu said: "What's wrong with being a security guard? At least he can support himself. Unlike you, who just loaf around doing nothing and have no skills."
Liu Kai said: "That's just my luck. It's not something I can help. I thought today my sister would bring back a boyfriend, not a scion of the top family at least, but at least an official second generation or even a third-tier noble family's son or an overseas returnee. But it turns out to be a security guard. I'm bored and won't stay for dinner anymore. Goodbye, security guard friend!"
Liu Lulu said: "Liu Kai, are you looking for trouble?"
Zhang Hongmei said: "Alright, stop messing around. Little Mo, what are your future plans?"
Mo Wenjie said: "Just take it one step at a time."
Liu Lulu said: "Mom, didn't you say that as long as I like someone, you wouldn't care about their status or background? Why are you backing out now? If that's the case, I'll never look for a boyfriend again."
Zhang Hongmei said: "Liu Lulu's mother didn't say that being a security guard is bad. It's just that he can't be a security guard for the rest of his life. Our Liu family in Zhengcheng is also a respectable family. If Little Mo becomes a security guard for life, don't you worry that your classmates and friends will laugh at you?"
Liu Lulu said: "Mo Wenjie hasn't said he wants to be a security guard for life either. He just said 'walk one step at a time', right? If he finds a better job, he'll change."
Liu Qiusheng said: "Little Mo, what are your special skills? If you have any, let Lulu help you start a business."
Mo Wenjie said: "Thank you, uncle. I don't need it. I don't want to rely on anyone. I have a job that I like."
Liu Qiusheng said: "That's good to hear. It's a positive thing for the younger generation to have ideals and aspirations. Uncle Liu is looking forward to your future."
Zhang Hongmei said: "Little Mo, it's not that auntie looks down on the job of a security guard. It's just that people are too realistic these days."
Mo Wenjie said: "Auntie, I can understand your feelings. Every parent wants their child to be comfortable and have a good life!"
Zhang Hongmei said: "Little Mo is really sensible. Auntie still hopes you can find a different job."
Liu Lulu said: "Mom, can't you stop interfering with our things?"
Zhang Hongmei said: "Alright, I'll stop interfering with your things. But you guys should hurry up and get married. I'm eager to become a grandmother."
Liu Lulu said: "Mom, you should hurry up and urge Liu Kai to get married earlier!"
Zhang Hongmei said: "Liu Kai is only twenty years old. You are already twenty-six. When I was your age, you were only three years old. How dare you let me urge Liu Kai."
Liu Qiusheng said: "Alright, let's go have dinner!"
Four people came to a restaurant for dinner.
Zhang Hongmei said: "Little Mo, who else lives in your family?"
Mo Wenjie said: "I was adopted by my master. I have three masters and five senior brothers."
Zhang Hongmei said: "I see. So, who are you guys discussing your wedding with?"
Liu Lulu said: "Mom, do you have to rush me out of the house so soon?"
Zhang Hongmei said: "What's all this talk about? You can live with us when you get married!"
Liu Qiusheng's phone rang. He saw it was his son's call and answered. On the other end, he heard Liu Kai crying, saying, "Dad, come and save me."
Liu Qiusheng said: "What happened, Kai?"
Liu Kai, while crying, said: "We were beaten up by Ja Yunpeng's people, and they won't let us go until you come to apologize in person. When will you get there? That's when they'll stop beating us. Dad, come save me, or I'll be killed!"
Liu Qiusheng said: "Where are you? I'll be there right away."
Liu Kai said: "I'm at the Yunding International Hotel."
Zhang Hongmei said: "What happened, Qiusheng?"
Liu Qiusheng said: "Kai was beaten up by the people of Jia Yunpeng at the Yunding International Hotel, and they won't let him go until I apologize in person. "
Zhang Hongmei said: "How did Kai offend Jia Yunpeng? What should we do? We can't afford to upset the Jia family. Qiusheng, can you find someone who can speak to the Jia family and mediate the situation?"
Liu Qiusheng said: "Let's figure it out when I get there. We don't even know what happened yet, how can we find someone?"
Zhang Hongmei said: "Little Mo, it's really sorry of us. We have urgent matters to attend to, so we can't keep you. We'll talk another time! Hurry up, Qiusheng and Lulu, let's go!"
Mo Wenjie said: "I'll come with you to take a look!"
Zhang Hongmei thought in her heart that what good would a security guard do at a fight where the Jia family has martial artists involved? But she could only say, "Alright then, let's go together."
The four of them rushed to the Yunshuiyao private room at Yunding International Hotel, where it was already packed with people.
Liu Kai saw his father and hurriedly said, "Mr. Jia, my father is here. Can you let me go?"
Liu Qiusheng asked: "What exactly happened to Liu Kai?"
Liu Kai said: "We were here to have a meal with a few classmates. A girl was harassed by a man when she went to the bathroom. She called out for help, and we hit the man, not knowing that he was friends with Mr. Jia. Mr. Jia then caught all of us here and had the bouncers beat us up. He then told us to call you and apologize before letting us go. These people are the parents of my classmates."
Jia Yunpeng was sitting on the chair, and with so many people around, he hadn't noticed Mo Wenjie at all. If he had seen Mo Wenjie, he wouldn't have just been scared into wetting his pants; he would have probably fallen to his knees. In the gemstone association, he had personally witnessed Mo Wenjie's martial arts prowess, which was a level that could destroy a master with a single move. His network of connections was even more terrifying; a single phone call could make the provincial party secretary seek his opinion cautiously.
Jia Yunpeng said: "Since everyone is here, let me ask you. My friend was beaten up by your little bastards, so how do we resolve this matter?"
Liu Qiusheng said: "Young Jia, children don't understand, and you're a gentleman who doesn't hold grudges. Please forgive them and let them go."
Jia Yunpeng said: "It's not that I can't let them go, but my friend was beaten up, and he deserves some sort of explanation. Can the beating be for nothing? Who will dare to play with me, Jia Yunpeng, in the future if we don't get a reckoning? Our Jia family's face is something that anyone can just beat up?"
Liu Qiusheng said: "Then what do you suggest we do, Jia Young?"
Jia Yunpeng said: "I won't be difficult on you. Each person is worth ten million yuan. Pay up and take your people back. If you don't pay, we'll break one of their arms off. Whoever disagrees can come to my Jia family for revenge."
Everyone in the room was too scared to argue or express their dissatisfaction. They had no choice but to swallow their feelings. Who would dare to defy the powerful Jia family in Henan Province, even if they were in the right?
Liu Kai said: "Jia Young, your friend was clearly harassing my classmate first, and we had no idea he was your friend when we beat him up. Your people have beaten us even worse, so you can't just ignore reason."
Jia Yunpeng laughed heartily and said: "You little brat has some courage, to dare to argue with me. Fine, bring in someone to break his two legs, let him find somewhere else to argue."
Two bodyguards were walking towards Liu Kai.
Liu Kai shouted: "Dad, save me!"
Mo Wenjie said: "Whoever dares to touch him, just try it."
