C72 Meeting His Parents(1)
"Let's go."
Jiaang Xin was reminded by Zhang Teng's voice and came back to her senses. She looked at Zhang Teng who had already walked over. She gritted her teeth and followed him into the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Ten minutes later, the two of them came out.
Looking at the red notebook in her hand, Jiaang Xin felt as if she was stepping on clouds. Everything seemed like a dream. However, the existence of this man beside her reminded her at all times that she was already married.
While she was in a daze, her hand was held. It was very big and warm, but she was not used to it.
She struggled for a bit, but did not break free. She raised her eyes to meet his pitch-black eyes, calm and without ripples. She knew that she should have the consciousness of a wife, so she didn't struggle anymore, allowing him to pull her into the car.
"Where are we going?" Looking at the strange scenery on both sides, Jiaang Xin could not help but ask.
Hearing her question, her hand tightened and her tone was indifferent, "Meet my parents."
Her originally calm heart immediately lifted. So soon, he was going to meet his parents. However, it was also true that it was to help him resist his parents' forced marriage. It was the same whether he saw them earlier or later. He was also not welcomed.
She took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. She was still a little nervous. She turned her head to look at his handsome side profile and asked in a dilemma: "Wait, how do you want me to perform?"
He raised his eyebrows and revealed a beautiful smile, but she could not feel the smile. She heard him say, "Don't give up, don't cry."
After saying that, she turned her face away and looked out the window. She pondered over a few words. Don't cry. She could understand. Most likely, his parents would say some nasty things. He was afraid that she would feel wronged and cry to him, right?
Then he had really underestimated her. Since she had signed the contract, this was just a job. She would do her best to do it. Even if she felt wronged, she would not tell him.
As for not giving up... She thought about how in movies, the parents of rich kids would always throw a check. They would ask the two of them to separate. Considering her own situation, it was a fake marriage. If the other party really gave her enough temptation, she might really break the contract and run away with the money.
Then, this sentence was a warning to her that she was not allowed to break the contract?
She suddenly remembered that there was a breach of contract in the contract. That sum of money was something she would never be able to earn in her lifetime, so the thought of breaking the contract was instantly extinguished.
While thinking, the car had already slowed down and drove into an old residence. Two rows of tall and straight trees were very imposing. The spacious courtyard was neat and tidy, coupled with the ancient architectural style not far away. It was extremely similar to a royal family from ancient times.
"Young master, you're back." One. A man who looked like a butler came forward and bowed respectfully. His expression didn't change when he saw her, but when his gaze swept past the two holding hands, he quickly glanced at her and politely asked, "Young Master, who is this lady?"
"This is the young madam." After saying this, Zhang Teng ignored the stunned housekeeper and pulled her towards the living room of the old residence.
When the two of them walked into the living room, there was suddenly silence in the room. Jiaang Xin felt a little awkward. Although there were only three of them, the sight was too scorching and it was as if the light was on her back.
She sighed in her heart. For the sake of Tongtong's medical expenses, she would give it her all.
She raised her gentle smile and followed Zhang Teng step by step. There was no trace of nervousness on her face.
"Teng, this is?" Zhang's mother's sharp eyes were like a machine gun as she swept Jiaang Xin up and down.
Jiaang Xin openly let her see and even when the two's eyes met, she nodded at her and smiled a little shyly.
"We are married." Zhang Teng's words were like a bomb in deep water, blowing up the calm scene.
Zhang's mother pointed her trembling finger at Zhang Teng and then at Jiaang Xin. She was so angry that she could not speak. As for Zhang's father, the crutch in his hand hit the ground hard. He also stood up with the force. He scolded Zhang Teng for not being filial and being unfilial. As for the girl on the other side, she had seen her before. She was Lin Xiaoxiao, whom she had seen in the private room last time.
She was somewhat curious as to why Lin Xiaoxiao was there, but when she thought of what Zhang Teng had said, perhaps this was the daughter-in-law chosen by his parents?
Jiaang Xin secretly glanced at Zhang Teng. Not only was it his expression, but even his gaze was so cold that it could freeze a person's heart. Looking at his parents' reaction, Jiaang Xin guessed that there was a gap between him and his parents.
Otherwise, why would he use such an extreme method to resist.
Seemingly noticing her peeking, he pinched her hand. He wanted her to go on stage to share the pressure? But now was not the time for her to go on stage. If she made a sound now, she would only be scolded.
Like the heavens responding to her inner thoughts, Zhang's mother pointed the spearhead at her.
"You are Teng who came to deceive us, right? How much did he give you?" Zhang's mother's tone was not good. She looked at her as if she was looking at trash.
Her mood stagnated. Even though she knew that it was just a show, it was still not good to be treated with such naked hostility.
"Auntie, no, I should call you Mom." Jiaang Xin said gently. There was not the slightest dissatisfaction or grievance on her face. "Teng and I have already gotten the certificate today. Take a look."
She took out the red notebook from her bag and did not hand it over. Instead, she opened it for her to take a look and put it away.
