Of course what he said was reasonable, but Chen Chen had no intention of easing the relationship. No one understood Ms. Zhou's stubbornness and ego better than him, so he cared more about Fang Nian's mood.

Fang Nian once again said that he was fine, and that he had already arrived at the door, so it would be rude to avoid seeing him when he was invited.After hearing what he said, Chen Chen turned off the engine, got out of the car and opened the door for him.

Three people walked into the living room one after another. Ms. Zhou was sitting on the sofa and asked the manicurist to do her nails.Chen Chen frowned. His mother had been abroad for many years, so he might not have acquired a more tolerant attitude, but a more casual attitude towards hospitality was the essence.

"Sorry, I didn't know that you would suddenly come to the door. After all, my son hated me so much that he wanted to file a complaint across the ocean and drive me away. I thought I would never see you again." Zhou Yunhui was shocked when she saw Chen Chen's expression. Knowing what he was thinking, she was also a mother and son after all, but she was not the kind of character who would introspect herself. With a soft and clever word, she started to attack Chen Chen first.

Chen Chen is usually not good at talking back to his mother, but with Fang Nian by his side, he didn't want his mother to bully Fang Nian, so he immediately decided: "Since it's inconvenient, why don't I come to see you another day?"

When Ms. Zhou heard this, she frowned, turned her head to stare at her son, and said with a sullen face, "What do you think of me if you haven't come in yet? Is it my fault that I invited you in?"

Chen Chen was helpless, he really couldn't bear his mother's thinking mode that was reasonable anyway, just about to open his mouth to talk back, but was stopped by Fang Nian.Fang Nian blinked at him lightly, Chen Chen twitched his mouth helplessly, but closed his mouth.

Speaking of it, people's emotions are really strange. He obviously avoided seeing her before, and was very evasive, but now that he really met Ms. Zhou face to face, Fang Nian felt very calm. Not only did he not feel uneasy, but he even comforted Chen Chen.

Ms. Zhou didn't miss their little interaction at all, and she saw everything in her eyes, but this time she didn't immediately jump up to make trouble, she snorted coldly, died down, and turned her head to stare at her nails.

The manicurist's work was coming to an end. She quickly packed her toolbox and quietly left the living room. Ms. Zhou then turned her gaze back to the three juniors who had been waiting for her for a while.

"Let me make a long story short. I think the formalities for Qin Jue's going abroad will be completed soon, right? After the formalities for his going abroad are completed, I will go with him, but I am very worried about the two of you. Leaving like this. The current situation is that I don't agree with Chen Chen's vision of choosing a partner, but he is very stubborn. He even doesn't hesitate to disturb his father and stop me as a mother. Actually, as a parent, I don't I am willing to look at this issue more openly, and whether I can accept you depends on your performance. I ask you to move back and live until I leave, and I hope Mr. Fang can work hard to win my approval during this period."

After Ms. Zhou finished speaking, her eyes returned to the nails that had just been meticulously trimmed. She looked at her fingertips carefully, and didn't care what impression Chen Chen and Fang Nian left after what she said.

Fang Nian was a little unresponsive, but Chen Chen frowned with a headache, regretting not going on the date, and came back to chew tongues with his mother.Yesterday's unhappiness hadn't completely receded, and this time he counterattacked, which made him almost unbearable.

"Mom, what are you thinking? Is this plausible?" Although he lowered his voice, he couldn't hide his displeasure.

Ms. Zhou was unmoved, and even dismissed her son's protest.

"Who told you to move out of your father to suppress me? Annoying child."

Such willful words are really hard to restrain the anger.For many years, it was because he didn't get along well with his mother that he and his parents were separated in two places. They didn't live together for a long time, and the relationship between mother and child was barely enough. Back to the original shape.Chen Chen felt that when facing his mother, his emotional control ability was getting worse and worse, and he was on the verge of breaking out at any time.

In the end, it still didn't happen.It was Fang Nian who stopped him again, and even opened his mouth before him.

"Ms. Zhou, I'm very sorry. I think this is very inappropriate, so I can't promise you."

Zhou Yunhui looked at him and said, "I don't really care about your decision, anyway, your image with me... But I still want to remind you, if you feel that you and Chen Chen have not been recognized by the elders, it's okay , then you can just keep ignoring me. That’s right, he will be happy if he becomes like you, having parents who are also like an orphan, right?”

"Enough!" This time, Fang Nian himself was stunned, unable to stop Chen Chen from getting angry.

Neither he nor Chen Chen expected Ms. Zhou to speak so harshly. Fang Nian was quite surprised by Ms. Zhou's rudeness, but Chen Chen was completely angry, his face sank, and his slightly lighter eyes stared straight into the mouth. Staring straight at his mother, it looked rather horrifying.

"Mom, you're going too far. Don't mention the demeanor and posture that elders should have, don't you even have the most basic courtesy? I'm not a father, and I won't take your unreasonable troubles as coquettish. Please tell Fang Nian Sorry, you were too much."

"I..." Ms. Zhou's attitude also restrained a little, but she still maintained a hypocritical aura, of course she refused to bow her head, "Let me apologize? Chen Chen, are you confused? Who am I to bow my head to when I grow up? "

"What does it mean to bow your head to whom?" Chen Chen felt powerless to his mother's magical thinking mode. "Is the apology because you are weak? The apology is because you did something wrong. You are inconsiderate, unkind, and rude, not because You lost the quarrel, okay? You're really...really...forget it!"

He waved his hand, interrupted his somewhat random refutation, and stretched out his hand to pull Fang Nian.

"let's go."

As he spoke, he dragged Fang Nian out without looking back.

Behind her, Ms. Zhou seemed to be muttering something vaguely. Qin Jue watched the audience like an outside audience without saying a word.Chen Chen squeezed the hand in the palm of his hand. It was rare to feel some restraint and depression. He really didn't understand, as an adult in a relationship, how could a parent act so recklessly?It's ridiculous.

"It's ridiculous," he said to Fang Nian while driving, "Does she still think of herself as a 16-year-old girl when she talks and does things? I really..."

"Okay, okay," Fang Nian comforted, "Ms. Zhou's words are not nice, but it won't hurt people if you don't take it to heart. You are angry because she is your mother. You will be disappointed, but I won't. I feel so sad, don't be angry."

Chen Chen seemed more reckless when driving than usual, apparently out of anger.On the contrary, Fang Nian seemed calm and calm, and he was able to comfort Chen Chen in turn, not because he really put on armor, but because he had heard worse words from Ms. Zhou, and he had a certain resistance.

It was past 3 o'clock in the afternoon when we left the Chen family's villa, and it was obviously impossible to go back to visit the art gallery. Without that mood, Fang Nian coaxed Chen Chen, saying that he would go home and cook for him.Chen Chen squeezed Fang Nian's hand between the traffic lights, without even looking at him, lowered his head and sighed: "You have such a temper... I used to be a subordinate, do... I think it's really great, but now It really hurts my heart."
