"It doesn't matter, it's just a few days, it'll be over if you bear it." She tried her best to squeeze out a smile, looking at the woman who was walking in front of her unhurriedly and looking extremely elegant, Xu Xue frowned helplessly.
If she hadn't been Lan Pingdi's mother, she would have been so lazy to say hello and so arrogant, huh!
"Xu Xue, are your parents okay?"
In the car, Lan Pingdi and Xu Xue were sitting in the front row, and Lan Jingtian and his wife were sitting in the back row. Because of his wife's arrogance, the atmosphere was a bit dull. Lan Jingtian asked in a very cordial tone.
He has always believed in his son's vision, including business and choosing friends. When Di chose Xu Xue, there must be something special about her. Therefore, before he came to France, he decided to respect his son's wishes.
"They are all very good, thank you, uncle." Xu Xue was slightly startled, turned around quickly, and answered with a smile, very polite. "Uncle and aunt must have had a hard time flying. Di said that aunt doesn't like in-flight meals. We are in the hotel.
We have reserved seats for the tastes you and auntie like. Let’s put our luggage away and go directly.”
"That's very thoughtful. Your aunt hates the food on airplanes, haha!" Lan Jingtian smiled and nodded, giving his wife a push, telling her not to act like a noble lady.
Mrs. Lan snorted slightly but still did not speak.
After helping put the luggage in the room, everyone sat down and planned to rest for a while before going to the restaurant.
"Xu Xue, what do your parents do?" This was the first sentence Mrs. Lan said to Xu Xue. Her expression was flat, and so was her voice. There was no trace of ups and downs, and there was no trace of kindness.
"They are all ordinary workers."
Displeased with her tone, Xu Xue tried her best to suppress her anger, receiving Lan Pingdi's comforting gaze, and tried her best to answer in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, without showing any displeasure.
"It turns out that he is an ordinary employee, and he really doesn't fit in well with our Lan family."
Mrs. Lan's words were full of disdain. That look and tone fell into Xu Xue's heart, making her displeasure even deeper. A trace of bitterness appeared on the corner of her lips: It was indeed difficult to get along with her, but fortunately she was just pretending.
"So what, marrying a well-matched woman may not be a good idea. I just like Xu Xue." His mother's words made Lan Pingdi unhappy. He put his arm around Xu Xue's waist and asked her to get closer to him, raising his eyebrows.
refute.
"That's right, it's not always good to be well-matched. Zebu also married a girl from an ordinary family. I believe Xu Xue is also a good girl. Wife, you have to believe in your son's vision." Lan Jingtian stretched out his hand to hold Mrs. Lan in his arms.
, and persuaded her with a smile.
"I have married a daughter-in-law and forgotten my mother. You dare to talk back to me before we are married." Lan Jingtian's comfort made Mrs. Lan less angry, but her mouth was still unforgiving. She raised her beautiful eyebrows and glared.
With a blue screen.
"Mom, how is it possible? No matter when the time comes, you are still my mother. My son will always love you, don't worry."
Realizing that what he just said had really damaged his mother's face, Lan Pingdi came over with a smile, put his arms around his mother's shoulders, and squeezed them gently: "Mom, let me rub your shoulders. You can maintain such a figure."
It's really good, but it's time to exercise. Xu Xue is a dance student. The dance class is very good and she is a very good coach. Let her practice with you anytime." She looked at Xu Xue seriously and praised:
"My mother also studied dancing back then, and won many awards in the e-market. If my father hadn't caught her early, she might have won an international award. Right, Dad?"
"Haha. It's true. Your mother has complained about me all these years." Lan Jingtian smiled good-naturedly, hoping to lighten the atmosphere.
Seeing that her mother's face looked better, Lan Pingdi blinked at Xu Xue, hoping she could say something.
"I heard Pingdi say that you are a great dancer. Auntie, when did I expect you to deign to give me some advice?"
Xu Xue felt helpless in her heart, but she had a very sincere smile on her face.
"I missed a lot of opportunities back then, but it's okay. I can be with Jingtian, so I have nothing to complain about." A smile finally appeared on the corner of her lips, and Mrs. Lan's tone softened a lot.
Xu Xue thought to herself that vanity is indeed a common problem among women. As long as she is happy, just flatter her. Today is the first day, and she will not do this in the next four days.

"Xu Xue, thank you today. My mother has made you feel wronged."
After dinner, he said good night to Lan Jingtian and Mrs. Lan. Lan Pingdi sent Xu Xue back and walked out of the hotel door. He paused in his steps and thanked her sincerely.
"Forget it, just don't let me be alone with her, I'm afraid of being eaten." Xu Xue said with an exaggerated shrug.
Even though the atmosphere relaxed a bit in the middle, the way Mrs. Lan looked at her still made her very uncomfortable.
"It's much better than I thought." Lan Pingdi smiled: "Maybe she's not very hostile to you."
"You don't have any good intentions, huh." Xu Xue frowned in displeasure, patted Lan Pingdi on the shoulder, and teased: "Lan Pingdi, you have to look carefully for your future wife, she might not be from the right family, or something like that.
Don't take her home. It's not good for girls who are too squeamish. Your mother will be angry. In other words, I am careless and a fake. I am just doing my best to act. If you marry a delicate sister Lin, you will have to be aggrieved.
Cried."
"I'm not Jia Baoyu, and I don't want to find Sister Lin. What about you, are you feeling aggrieved and want to cry?"
He had been paying attention to her expression and knew that she was actually just trying to restrain herself.
He asked seriously, his dark eyes locked on Xu Xue's face, which made her heart tremble again. For fear of being sucked in, she turned her head slightly, not looking into her eyes.
"Of course I'm wronged. I really want to announce it loudly. Mrs. Lan, I'm lying. Please let me go and don't be so cruel to me." She smiled and made herself look indifferent.
"Haha, hold on for a few more days. Xu Xue, please chat with my mother more tomorrow. In fact, she has always liked having a daughter. She has always lamented that she is not destined to have a daughter to chat with her." Lan Pingdi smiled.
.
"No, I'm not a fortune teller in the square. How can I tell her what she likes? What's more, I don't understand the rules of the upper class. Please don't give me problems."
"Okay, I won't give you any problems, but thank you for helping me. You didn't eat much for dinner, would you like to have some midnight snacks?" Lan Pingdi suggested softly with an understanding smile on his fair and handsome face.
"Yes, of course I do. I'm starving to death. I see a table full of delicious food but I don't dare to eat it. It's so tortured." Xu Xue shouted exaggeratedly and pointed to a dessert shop not far away: "Go and eat."
Let’s have some dessert, I want to comfort my belly.”
