As luck would have it, the elevator temporarily broke down that day. Maintenance workers were rushing to repair it, but they might not be able to recover for a while. Chen Jinan waited for a while, but felt a little cold, so he simply climbed 18 flights of stairs home.

When she got home, the more she thought about it, the weirder she felt. Her intuition told her that Yan Fan was digging a bigger hole waiting for her to jump into. He had a lot of clever ideas, and it was never his style to just sit back and wait for death.

Chen Jinan called Qi You who was far away in the imperial capital to complain about this matter. Qi You was at home waiting for her childbirth, and she had nothing to do and was worried that no one would accompany her to relieve her boredom.

The two chatted for two hours. When Chen Jinan finished talking on the phone and the phone was already hot, she realized that Chen's mother had sent her several WeChat messages, all of which asked her to go downstairs to help carry express delivery.

Mother Chen's tone was very urgent, so Chen Jinan hurriedly changed his shoes and went out, fearing that he would be nagged again if he went late.

Same world, same kind of mother. When she first came to Jiang City, her mother made delicious food for her every day, for fear that she wouldn't have enough to eat and sleep well, but now...

She even finds it annoying for her mother to breathe at home.

Chen Jinan pushed open the door to the stairwell and heard voices coming from downstairs.

After walking down two floors, she saw her mother walking up with a smile on her face carrying a vegetable basket, and the legendary heavy express delivery was actually in... Yan Fan's hand!!

The two were talking and laughing, and Chen Jin'an didn't even notice until they were right under his nose. He didn't know that they were mother and son.

"Mom, why did you two come up together?" Chen Jinan's face drooped.

Mother Chen rolled her eyes at her, "What do you mean, I don't answer calls or text messages, and I don't know what I'm doing? Thanks to Xiaoyan for helping me, otherwise the elevator would be broken, and there's really nothing I can do about such a heavy box by myself.

Move upstairs."

She looked at Yan Fan and immediately changed her expression to a pleasant one, "Xiao Yan, thank you so much for today. No, our family Jin'an is here, just give her the box! We have climbed more than ten floors.

Look, you are so tired that your head is covered with sweat."

Yan Fan smiled and said, "It's okay, Auntie. I'm young and in good health. Moving a few boxes is nothing, just exercise. Besides, your daughter is a little girl, so don't do such heavy work."

"..." This sweet-tongued ability really makes Chen Jinan feel ashamed.

Mother Chen didn't say anything more, but looked at Yan Fan with more of an elder's love for her junior.

Arriving at the door of Chen's house, Yan Fan placed the express delivery at the entrance. Sweat dripped on the express box when he bent over.

Chen Jinan saw this and silently went back to the living room to take out a few tissues and was about to hand them to him to wipe his sweat. Unexpectedly, Chen's mother pulled him into the house first and even prepared slippers for him.

"Xiaoyan, thank you for today! It's dark today, so you haven't eaten yet? Why don't you stay at our house for dinner? Auntie will cook it herself!"

"Mom! You don't have to..." Chen Jinan's eyes widened and he hurriedly pulled on Chen's mother's sleeves.

Yan Fan glanced at Chen Jinan and said, "No, aunt, it's too much trouble for you. I live alone and can eat whatever I want. I'll just go up and order some takeout later."

"Oh! It's unhealthy to eat takeout all the time! Don't be polite, don't be polite. Auntie has bought all the dishes. It's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks. Don't be polite to auntie. If you refuse again, auntie won't come to you next time when we play mahjong!"

Mother Chen brushed away Chen Jinan's hand pulling her, ignored all the hints from her eyes and body, and pulled Yan Fan into the door with a smile. She also asked Chen Jinan to help pour tea, wash fruits, and greet the guests.

Chen Jinan ignored him and let him sit alone in the living room. He angrily squeezed into the kitchen to complain to his mother.

"Mom, how can you leave him at home to eat!"

Mother Chen was washing vegetables happily. When she heard this, she raised her hand and shook her daughter's face, "Why not? Xiaoyan is a good-looking child, filial and sensible, and he is also good at playing mahjong. I just like him, can't you?

?He helped me such a big favor today, what's wrong with me leaving him at home to eat?"

"Filial and sensible? How can you tell that he is filial and sensible? Mom, let me tell you, he is just a white-bone spirit in human skin. Don't be fooled by his appearance!"

"Huh? Is that weird?" Mother Chen turned off the faucet, stood up and looked at her daughter with a puzzled face, "Why do you say it as if you are familiar with him? Do you know him very well?"

"Me, me, me, how could I!" Chen Jin'an knew that he had spilled the beans and was being secretive, but he still told the truth, "He is my classmate in high school, we are roommates, and we went to the same school in college."

"What! Is there still such a relationship? You kid, why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Mother Chen was so happy that she excitedly opened the door and went out without even listening to what her daughter had to say. She picked a bunch of fruits and put them on the coffee table.

"Xiaoyan, it turns out that you and Jinan are high school classmates. We have been playing mahjong for so long, and you didn't tell aunt earlier. If aunt had known earlier, she would have invited you to our house for dinner."

"It's true of you, Jin'an. People are busy with moving, and you don't know how to help. You just add chaos to the house all day long!"

"How can I..."

"Auntie, don't blame Jin'an. I didn't let her say it, for fear of causing trouble to you."

"No trouble, no trouble. Auntie, I just like the excitement. It's not too late to be happy. You sit down first, and Auntie will cook. It will be ready soon! Jin'an, please stop standing around and sit down with Xiaoyan to talk."

Mother Chen turned around and went back to the kitchen, scolding her daughter as she walked away: "You said you are a girl who doesn't know how to dress up, so you came out in pajamas and made people laugh at you."

"..." Chen Jinan is really at a loss for words.

If you don’t wear pajamas at home, do you still have to wear a suit and tie?

She sat across from Yan Fan, gritted her teeth and glared at him, lowering her voice and threatening: "Go back as soon as you have eaten. Don't cause any trouble for me, okay?"

"Ah? What did you say?" Yan Fan peeled the orange seriously, broke off one and a half and gave it to her, "It's so sweet, do you want to eat it?"

Chen Jinan didn't answer and continued to puff out his cheeks, "Yan Fan, what on earth are you doing?"

Yan Fan smiled but did not answer, clapped his hands and stood up, leaned forward and said in her ear: "I don't want to do anything. I just want to honor my future mother-in-law first."

"You! You're talking nonsense!"

Chen Jinan's ears felt hot due to his teasing, and he was so angry that he raised his hand to hit him. Yan Fan, with quick eyes and quick hands, held her wrist accurately and smiled erratically, "You like me, I like you, I'm talking nonsense."

? Just drag me with you. Anyway, I am determined this time. Even if you use a broom to chase me away, I will not leave!"

Chen Jinan's cheeks turned red visibly, and his chest heaved violently.

Seeing that she raised her knee and was about to kick him in the vital part, Yan Fan turned to one side of his body and covered that spot to avoid it.

"Why don't you be cruel every time? If you kick me to pieces and I will be useless for the rest of my life, then you will regret it!"

"You deserve it!"

"What are you two kids doing?" Mother Chen's voice came from the kitchen.

Yan Fan immediately put on a smile and walked towards the kitchen with his sleeves rolled up, "It's nothing. Auntie, let me help you!"

"..." Chen Jinan collapsed on the sofa and punched his back twice with anger and hatred.

After the food was served, Father Chen also came back from the company.

Chen's mother enthusiastically pulled Yan Fan to introduce him. Chen's father immediately understood the look in Chen's eyes when he saw Chen's mother. During the meal, he kept cooperating with his wife, making insinuations and asking about Yan Fan's situation.

When asked about relationship issues, Yan Fan glanced at Chen Jin'an who was eating food in a muffled manner, lowered his eyes and smiled, "I don't have a girlfriend yet. But at the moment... I have a girl I like."

Father Chen and Mother Chen have both been living for decades, how could they not understand the meaning of his words? The two of them looked at each other happily. What a joke!

After Yan Fan left, Chen Jinan was dragged to the sofa by his mother and they had a long talk. One sentence on the left was Yan Fan and the other one was short on Fan. She was extremely satisfied with him.

Seeing that Chen Jinan was unmoved, Mother Chen simply spoke up, "It's been so long since you graduated from college, so it's time to find a partner. I don't need to ask about your past, but you must have a plan for the future. I

Yan Fan is a very good child, and his parents are satisfied with it. The important thing is that he has you in his heart!"

Chen Jinan rolled his eyes when he heard this, "How could you tell that he has me in his heart?"

"Nonsense! If it weren't for you, why would he come all the way to Jiang City and move upstairs to us? I've asked him, he works online most of the time now, and if anything happens to the company, he will immediately

Let's go back to the imperial capital and solve it. Do you think it's easy for people to fly back and forth like this? If it wasn't for you, why would I have to suffer this for myself?"

Chen Jinan pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Not long after, her father also joined the force of persuasion, and Xiaozhi was moved by emotion and reason. The couple sang along and praised Yan Fan so much that they thought they had accepted Yan Fan's money.

Chen Jinan had a rebellious streak. No matter what her parents said, she would just put on the attitude of "I won't listen, I won't do it, I won't agree." When they said they were tired, she yawned and went back to her room to sleep.

But she could cope with it for a while, but she couldn't cope with it for the rest of her life. From that day on, Yan Fan came to their house more frequently. He appeared at their dinner table every three days, and he always spoke pleasantly, and he was better at pleasing her than her biological daughter.

Parents are happy.

Chen Jinan also let him go, remaining unchanged in the face of all changes.

On the one hand, she wanted to see how many bad tricks he, the "white-bone demon", was still holding back. On the other hand, she learned that Jiangshi TV station was recruiting a stage designer. She wanted to give it a try and was busy preparing design drafts and designs every day.

Registration materials, I don’t have time to talk to him at the moment.

On the day when she went to the TV station to apply for a job, Chen Jinan got up early. Since she and her father were not on the same road, she specially drove her mother's car out.

The weather was very cold that day, and Chen Jinan's driving skills were not very good. As soon as the car arrived at the gate of the community and was about to pass the gate, the car suddenly stalled.

It was the rush hour for work, and the cars behind were all waiting to go out. The car owners couldn't help but get angry after being stuck in traffic for too long, and kept honking their car horns to urge them.

The more they pressed, the more Chen Jinan became confused. Just when she was thinking about whether to get out of the car and ask for help, someone suddenly came over and knocked on her window.

"Sit in the passenger seat and I'll help you drive." Yan Fan raised his chin and motioned for her to open the door.

Chen Jinan stared at his face and hesitated for a while. But the car behind her was rushing too fast, so she finally opened the car door obediently, took her bag and moved to the passenger seat.

Yan Fan drove the car out of the community smoothly, and while turning the steering wheel, he did not forget to cheer her up: "With your driving skills, do you really have the courage to hit the road?"

Chen Jinan was embarrassed by what he said, so he forced himself to explain: "I took the driver's license test when I was a freshman in college, and I haven't driven much since then. Give me a few days to get familiar with it, and I will definitely be able to drive."

"

"I'm afraid that before you get familiar with it, the car will be totaled if you drive it first!" Yan Fan teased.

"Crow's mouth!" Chen Jinan glared at him.

"Okay, no more joking. Where are you going? I happen to have nothing to do today, so I can see you off."

"Go to the TV station. I have an interview today."

Yan Fan frowned, suddenly turned the steering wheel and braked the car to the side of the road. Chen Jinan fell forward with the inertia, his head was shaken and he was dizzy, "Why are you so angry! Is there anyone who drives like this?"
