When Jiaren Wu heard this, she wanted to cry.
“This is the first time we are meeting, so I should at least leave a good impression.” Their first impression of her would be deeply ingrained in their minds. Jiaren Wu also wanted to present her best side in front of Wei Shuyi’s family.
“I understand, but…” Wei Shuyi explained further,” You might leave a good impression on them now, but in the future, if they see you wearing clothes that show half of your waist, won’t they be shocked? ”
Jiaren Wu thought about that image and felt rather vexed.
Wei Shuyi waved at her.
Jiaren Wu slowly walked over and stood in front of Wei Shuyi. She was wearing flats and had to raise her head to speak to him.
“What?” she asked sulkily. The smile on her face vanished.
Wei Shuyi took her hand and squeezed it. His attitude became serious. He said, “Go back to your room now and change into your favorite clothes. Follow me to meet my elders in your most genuine and confident manner.” He sounded quite serious and did not seem to be teasing her.
Jiaren Wu’s eyes lit up. “Are you sure?”
Wei Shuyi continued, “So what if you like to wear revealing clothes? That’s the real you. A person’s dressing style doesn’t mean anything. So what if you wear revealing clothes? You’re wearing bold clothes and have the courage that other women don’t have. If you dare to go to the poison den alone, would they dare?”
Wei Shuyi’s words sank into Jiaren Wu’s heart.
“Go and change your clothes. You’re the person I like. I’m bringing you to meet them because I respect them. However, their thoughts can’t influence my opinion of you.” Wei Shuyi’s gaze was firm.
He placed Jiaren Wu’s hand, which was not as smooth as other girls’, by his mouth and gave it a peck. He said, “You’re very good. You’re the one and only you. You don’t have to pretend to be obedient and please others. Just be yourself.”
It was already tough enough for her to catch bad guys at work. If she had to act in her daily life, wouldn’t it be too tough?
He could not put shackles on her just because they loved each other.
Wei Shuyi’s original intention after being with her was to let her live freely and unrestrainedly at all times.
Jiaren Wu was touched.
She jumped onto Wei Shuyi’s body, hugged his neck, and gave him a big kiss. Then, she got off his body and ran back to her room to change.
After changing into the clothes she loved, Jiaren Wu once again became the unrestrained girl who loved freedom.
***
Elder Xu and Elder Chen had decided to hold a banquet at Elder Chen’s house.
Wei Shuyi drove Jiaren Wu to the Chen Family. On the way, they went to the supermarket to buy gifts. After putting the gifts into the trunk, Wei Shuyi introduced Elder Chen’s and Elder Xu’s family members to Jiaren Wu.
“Teacher Chen’s current wife is from his second marriage. Erm, Mistress is only five or six years older than me. It’s not right to call her Auntie or Madam. You can call her Miss Su when the time comes.”
“Okay.”
Wei Shuyi added, “He also has a son, Chen Tao. You’ve met him before.”
Jiaren Wu smiled and nodded. “Yes, I still remember him. He’s the one who was almost tempted by his friend to take drugs.”
“Ok.”
Wei Shuyi turned the car around a corner and drove into the Chen family estate. He then said to Jiaren Wu, “When you arrive at the house, remember to tell Chen Tao more about those drug abuse cases and give him a warning so that he won’t go astray in the future.”
“Okay.”
“Old Master Xu also has a child. She is a girl. She is studying at a university outside the province and is not at home. Today, Old Master Xu and his wife should be the only ones coming.” Wei Shuyi stopped the car outside the Chen Family’s residence. He turned his head and saw that Jiaren Wu was sitting upright, and he couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Are you that nervous?”
Jiaren Wu stiffly turned her head to look at him and said, “Do you know, when I entered the police academy and practiced shooting for the first time, I wasn’t even as nervous when I heard the gunshots as I am now.”
Wei Shuyi smiled at her, his gaze turning gentle.
He raised his right hand and placed it on Jiaren Wu’s white hat. Wei Shuyi patted her head and comforted her softly, “Don’t be afraid. They’re my family. How can they be more frightening than drug dealers?”
Jiaren Wu replied without hesitation, “I don’t love drug dealers, so why would I be nervous?
Wei Shuyi was stunned for a moment before he pulled Jiaren Wu toward him and gave her a kiss.
“Brother!”
Chen Tao was standing at the entrance downstairs, staring at the two people kissing in the car. When he had heard the sound of the car, he had looked out the window and recognized Wei Shuyi’s car. He had then rushed down the stairs.
However, he had not expected to see this scene.
Brother Wei, who has been single for 29 years, is really no longer single!
The two of them quickly separated.
Chen Tao’s gaze naturally shifted from Wei Shuyi to the unfamiliar woman.
When the woman opened the door and got out of the car, Chen Tao’s face turned red.
What a beautiful lady!
Jiaren Wu had worn a white top and chiffon skirt. When she raised her hand, her sexy waist was slightly revealed. Chen Tao’s gaze landed on Jiaren Wu’s face. He was so stunned that he couldn’t say a word. His cheeks were slightly red and his heart was beating fast. In an instant, Chen Tao felt that it was his first love.
Jiaren Wu wore a small white hat. Her long black hair was slightly curled and draped over one shoulder. She held a white pearl gift bag in her hand.
When she saw Chen Tao, she blinked at him and mischievously smiled.
Chen Tao’s face turned even redder. He stood in front of Jiaren Wu awkwardly and stuttered, “Sister, Sister, hello… I am… I am Chen, C-Chen Tao.”
Wei Shuyi slapped Chen Tao on the head and scolded him. “Can’t you speak properly? You’re stuttering.”
Chen Tao quickly covered his head and stared at Wei Shuyi with his eyes wide open. He shouted in despair. “Brother, you messed up my hair!”
Knowing that his brother’s girlfriend was coming today, Chen Tao had put on a white shirt and black pants; he had paired his outfit with a pair of black and red canvas shoes. He had even used hair gel to make his hair look cool. Wei Shuyi’s slap had ruined his appearance.
Wei Shuyi sneered. “Hairstyle?” He stared at Chen Tao’s broom-like hair and revealed an indescribable expression.
Turning his head, Wei Shuyi said to Jiaren Wu, “My little brother is such a joker. Sorry to make you laugh.”
Jiaren Wu burst out laughing. She looked at Chen Tao and said, “Chen Tao, you don’t remember me?”
Chen Tao was dumbfounded.
“We’ve met before?”
That shouldn’t be the case. I would’ve definitely remembered such a beautiful lady. I always have a good memory for beauties.
Before Jiaren Wu could explain, Wei Shuyi spoke, “The last time you were brought to the police station, you saw Sister Wu. Have you forgotten?”
Chen Tao’s eyes darted around before he finally remembered who Sister Wu was. Previously, he and his friends had been arrested by a police officer at the police station. As the matter involved drugs, they had been sent to the police station. There seemed to be a pretty lady there.
The young man remembered that and got embarrassed. His smile became especially awkward. He quickly tried to prove his innocence. “Sister Wu, that time, it was really an accident. I’m a good young man in society. I don’t take drugs, I don’t smoke, I don’t… I don’t go online…” When he said that he didn’t go online, Chen Tao’s voice was light and he sounded a little guilty.
Jiaren Wu said, “It’s fine. Just don’t let me see you in the police station again.”
“Of course not!”
Wei Shuyi asked Chen Tao to help carry their items, and the three of them took the elevator upstairs.
“Is your Uncle Xu here?”
“He’s here with my aunt.”
“Ok.”
Hearing the sound of the elevator door opening, Chen Anyuan opened the door to his house.
Jiaren Wu walked out of the elevator and looked up to meet the four elders standing at the entrance of the Chen family.
There were two men and two women, and all of them had a motherly smile on their faces…
Jiaren Wu was warmly welcomed into the Chen family. A few elders surrounded her and asked her some questions. They asked her about her profession and whether her job was tough.
“My surname is Wu, and my name is Jiaren Wu. Right now, I’m the only one at home. I’ll be turning 26 in a few months. I’m currently a police officer…”
When they heard that Jiaren Wu was a police officer, Old Chen and Old Xu were surprised.
They had deduced from her appearance and clothing that she was involved in some sort of entertainment or fashion career. To their surprise, she turned out to be a police officer! The two of them were extremely satisfied and quickly said to Jiaren Wu, “The police are great! Our Ah Wei is a doctor, and you guys are responsible for saving lives and helping others.”
Jiaren Wu blushed awkwardly.
Before she had come here, she had thought that medical specialists like Old Chen and Old Xu would be serious and taciturn men. She found out only after meeting them that they were completely chatty and never stopped asking questions.
On the other hand, the two women did not talk much.
Wei Shuyi sat next to Jiaren Wu. Seeing that she was smiling so hard that her face was stiff, he quietly reached out and rubbed her back.
About an hour later, Wei Shuyi finally spoke up to save Jiaren Wu. He said to Old Chen and Old Xu, “Teachers, this is the first time Jiaren has come to visit. Don’t be too enthusiastic. Don’t scare her. She won’t dare to come to the house again.”
Hearing Wei Shuyi’s words, the two realized that they were too impatient.
“Yes, look at us. When people get old, they’re so long-winded. They never stop talking.” Elder Xu rubbed his hands on his thighs and said, “Jiaren, Ah Tao, you’re both young. You two can chat together. We’ll help your aunts cook.”
Elder Xu dragged Elder Chen to the kitchen. The living room finally quieted down.
Jiaren Wu heaved a sigh of relief.
Chen Tao ran over to the armchair opposite Jiaren Wu and sat down. He complained about his father and Uncle Xu. “These two people are typical chatterboxes. They talk like they’re checking on people. They’re even more detailed than you police officers.”
Jiaren Wu chuckled and said, “That’s good too. The more they ask, the more they care about your Brother Wei.”
Chen Tao pouted and enviously looked at Brother Wei.
Indeed, people rely on their looks. Brother Wei is so handsome that he could find a wife as beautiful as Sister Wu.
At 12: 05 p.m., it was time for lunch.
After the meal, Elder Xu’s wife suddenly asked Chen Anyuan, “Elder Chen, where is your photo album? Find it and let Jiaren take a look. I remember that there are many photos of Xiao Yi and his parents in your photo album.”
“I’ll look for it.”
Soon, Chen Anyuan found a photo album.
The album was very thick.
He handed the photo album to Madam Xu, who sat down beside Jiaren Wu. As Madam Xu flipped through the photo album, she explained to Jiaren Wu. “We’re friends with Xiao Yi’s parents. We used to go on vacations together and visit each other often. There are also photos of Xiao Yi wearing open crotch pants when he was young in this photo album.”
Wei Shuyi rubbed his nose awkwardly.
Madam Xu had just flipped through two to three pages of the photo album when she found a photo of Wei Shuyi. “Look, this baby is Wei Shuyi. This is a photo taken not long after he was born, when his parents carried him to Old Chen’s house.”
In the photo, Wei Shuyi was wearing a pair of light blue open-crotch pants and was sleeping soundly in his mother’s arms.
Jiaren Wu’s attention fell on the woman hugging Wei Shuyi. She asked, “This is Auntie?”
“Yes, it’s Ah Hui.”
Wei Shuyi looked like his mother. His features were soft and gentle. Madam Xu flipped to the back, and Jiaren Wu saw a few photos of Wei Shuyi’s childhood. “These are photos of him graduating from elementary school when he was twelve.”
At that time, Wei Shuyi’s appearance had already started to develop, and he had gained some of his current charm.
Madam Xu’s eyes lit up, and she said, “This is Xiao Yi’s high school graduation photo.”
As Jiaren Wu looked at the photo, her gaze froze.
In the photo, Wei Shuyi was wearing a high school uniform. It was a normal blue and white uniform. It looked loose and ugly on others, but on Wei Shuyi, it looked especially good. Even though the uniform was loose, his figure was still slender.
The young man’s back was against the wall of the school building. His left foot was facing backward, and his foot was against the wall.
Tilting his head, he looked at the camera. He didn’t smile. He didn’t have a gentle and leisurely look back then and appeared a little gloomy. At this time, Wei Shuyi’s complexion was so tender that water dripped from his skin. His cheeks were fair and his skin was especially good.
Jiaren Wu reached out to touch the photo and felt a sense of familiarity.
