Soon the taxi stopped in front of a cafe in the downtown area, "Mr. Lu, please go to the cafe and wait for your target person to appear." Facing Lu Chen who got out of the car,
The driver said briefly and drove away.
Father Lu and Mother Lu also waited for Lu Chen to walk into the cafe before getting out of the taxi. This cafe is quite large and has many locations, making it appear to be relatively high-end.
When Lu Chen reached a corner, Lu's father and Lu's mother avoided Lu Chen and sat in the blind spot of his sight. But here they could observe their son's every move.
Father Lu and Mother Lu were not polite. They ordered a cup of coffee and started drinking it. After all, they had not slept all day and night and were already unbearably sleepy. Mother Lu even kept yawning.
However, Lu Chen didn't pay attention to the two old men behind the pot of plants. He just stared at the door. After all, the target person hadn't appeared yet.
Sure enough, after waiting for nearly half an hour, Lu's father and Lu's mother also drank two cups of coffee. They clearly saw Lu Chen standing up. It seemed that the protagonist this time was about to appear.
Father Lu and Mother Lu hurriedly looked towards the door. A middle-aged woman in the lead, dressed more formally, walked in. Behind her was a girl in her twenties, and next to the girl stood a
The man wearing a suit and tie looks very calm and capable in his thirties.
Obviously, the girl in her twenties was Lu Chen's target, Cheng Xinchu. Lu Chen was about to say hello, but when he saw the man beside him, he took his hands back and sat back down.
Father Lu and Mother Lu swept back and forth on Chen Lu and the three others.
"Lao Lu, what's going on?" Mother Lu was confused now and didn't know what the situation was.
"I guess this girl is right, but what is the background of the man next to her?" Dad Lu was firm in his thoughts, but he couldn't guess what the situation of that calm and capable man was.
As it happened, the three of them chose a seat next to Father Lu and Mother Lu and sat down. Father Lu and Mother Lu quickly withdrew their eyes. They glanced at Lu Chen not far away, and it seemed that his eyes were not focused on Cheng Xinchu at all.
I moved away. Naturally, I didn’t pay attention to the direction of Father Lu and Mother Lu.
"My son probably cares about this girl, but why doesn't he leave?" Mother Lu looked puzzled.
"Let's take a look and talk." Father Lu and Mother Lu whispered to each other.
"Well, this girl is pretty good. She really looks like a lady. She is quite beautiful, and her son is very discerning." Mother Lu couldn't help but look at Cheng Xinchu and praised her.
"Don't you think it's strange? This girl seems to be a few years older than our son. Judging from her dress, she looks like someone who has already entered the workforce. How could my son know her?" Father Lu asked his own question.
, obviously Mother Lu next to her could not help Father Lu answer.
The two of them and Lu Chen all took a wait-and-see attitude and watched the three people chatting.
"Xinchu, this is your aunt's son, his name is Liu Zaixing." Cheng Xinchu sat alone on one side, while the middle-aged woman took her son and sat on the other side, helping Cheng Xinchu introduce him.
"I heard from your mother that you are working in City S now. It just so happens that my son also works in City S. He holds the position of technical director in a large foreign company. He is a typical IT man. Technical problems can be solved easily, but he is too stupid.
He doesn’t have a girlfriend yet. You also know that he is not young anymore. Your mother agrees to our meeting this time, so you can have a good chat."
"Hello, my name is Cheng Xinchu, and I work as a department manager in a cosmetics company." Cheng Xinchu stood up slightly and extended his hand to Liu Zaixing. Liu Zaixing also quickly stood up and shook Cheng Xinchu's hand without saying anything.
It took the two of them to return to their original positions.
Just as the two made a brief introduction, a middle-aged couple walked into the cafe again. When they saw Cheng Xinchu, they hurried over and sat down.
"This is your uncle and aunt Cheng." Liu Zaixing's mother quickly introduced them.
"Hello, uncle and aunt." Liu Zaixing stood up and bowed slightly.
Cheng Xinchu's parents smiled and nodded, gesturing for Liu Zaixing to sit down and talk.
The five of them sat around and chatted happily, naturally introducing all aspects of their children.
Lu Chen's parents were stunned at this time, and a word came to their mind at the same time, blind date!
"What's going on? Isn't my son here to meet his parents? Why is this girl here on a blind date?" Mother Lu couldn't understand the current situation at all.
"No, the Lu family's face can't be lost like this. I have to take action to seek some justice for my son." Father Lu couldn't sit still. This was obviously treating the man of the Lu family like a monkey.
What is tolerable is unbearable.
"Old man, don't get excited. Let's wait and see." Mother Lu grabbed Dad Lu who was standing up. It was obvious that Dad Lu, who had always been calm and composed, was no longer calm at this time.
Lu Chen was drinking coffee and watching the development of the situation. Lu Chen who was far away was also clearly aware of this blind date. However, he had no reason or identity to stop it. He could only watch this matter develop.
But the figure who suddenly stood up next to him made Lu Chen's eyes divert.
This figure looked so familiar. When the man turned his head to speak, Lu Chen finally saw the man's face clearly. He took a sip of coffee and spit it out. Isn't this his father? Why is he here?
Oops, things were about to get serious. Lu Chen suddenly realized the lie he had told earlier and quickly stood up to stop his father. But he was still a step too late.
"Hello, my name is Lu Buwang." Father Lu had already walked to the table and stretched out his hand to say hello to Cheng Xinchu's father.
Obviously no one at the table knew the person who called himself Lu Buwang. Naturally, Cheng Xinchu's father looked at Lu Buwang with a surprised look on his face, but he still stood up and shook hands with Lu Buwang politely.
"I wonder what happened to Mr. Lu?" Father Cheng smiled awkwardly and asked Lu Buwang who was standing aside.
"Your daughter is my son's girlfriend!" Lu Buwang simply and directly brought the topic to the point.
Poof! Several people at the table almost spit out the coffee in their mouths. What on earth is going on?
"Old Cheng, what's going on?" Liu Zaixing's mother stared straight at Cheng's father, obviously not knowing what was going on.
Father Cheng also had a look of astonishment on his face and glanced at Cheng Xinchu who was also confused next to him.
"Mr. Lu, have you made a mistake? I haven't heard my daughter say that she has a boyfriend." Father Cheng still replied politely to Lu Buwang.
"Mom and Dad, why are you here?" Lu Chen hurried over, hugged one with each other, and quickly pulled his parents away from the table. His face was extremely embarrassed, and it was obvious that his father's words just now were not spoken word by word.
It leaked and fell into my ears.
When Father Lu and Mother Lu saw that their son had broken into them, they simply broke the casserole and asked what was going on.
"Look, this is my son!" Lu Buwang didn't follow Lu Chen away at all. Instead, he extended his hand and introduced his son.
Lu Chen realized that he had made an extremely wrong decision. He should not have come up to join in the fun. He shrank down and was about to leave quietly. However, he was stopped by his mother, who put Lu Chen's face with her hands firmly against Cheng's father's.
before.
"Mr. Lu, why are you here?" Cheng Xinchu was still stunned, but when he saw Lu Chen's face, he spoke in surprise.
"Mr. Lu?" Except for Cheng Xinchu and Lu Chen, everyone present had a big question mark in their head. Why did his son become Mr. Lu? Father Lu looked puzzled.
But what is certain is that the two people know each other and have a superior-subordinate relationship, so there is no need to explain this.
"Cheng Wanpeng, what on earth is going on? Are we playing tricks on us, mother and son? If our son leaves, we will no longer be close to each other." Before Liu Zaixing's mother could find out the reason, she took her son and left. Obviously, if she stayed, that would be
ask for contempt.
"Listen to my explanation, it's not like this." Cheng's father quickly tried to pull him away, but Liu Zaixing's mother insisted on walking and couldn't stop her. This made the old Cheng family lose face.
After watching the two people leave, Cheng's father had a straight face and didn't know the reason. "You guys sit down and talk. If you don't explain things clearly today, none of you are allowed to leave."
"This is exactly what I want! I'd like to hear your explanation." Dad Lu refused to give in and sat down opposite Dad Cheng. Obviously, the old Lu family couldn't lose face.
Obviously this is a contest between old men, but it is a conflict caused by a lie.
"Xinchu, why don't you introduce it to your parents?" Cheng's father became angry and said to his daughter with obvious reproach.
"Hello, aunt, hello, uncle. My name is Lu Chen. I am a college student. This is all a misunderstanding." Lu Chen quickly introduced himself first. After all, this matter happened because of him.
"College student? What is your relationship with our Xinchu? Please explain it clearly to me now." After hearing Lu Chen's words, Cheng's father did not expect that the person who said his daughter was his girlfriend was actually just a girl in school.
College student.
"It's like this. My friend runs a cosmetics company, and Ms. Cheng works there. We know each other, and we are considered friends." Lu Chen nodded and bowed, as if he was trying to please, and wanted to make things right.
"Son? She's not your girlfriend?" Father Lu looked confused.
"no no."
"Really? Then call your girlfriend out!" Dad Lu obviously didn't believe what Lu Chen said, and simply wanted Lu Chen to prove it on the spot.
"This, this." How could Lu Chen call anyone else? Even Lin Ruoyun was thousands of miles away, and there was no one rushing to the scene now.
"Although our old Lu family has no power and is not rich, the men of our old Lu family are all flesh and blood men. What do you Cheng family mean? You are doing this behind my son's back. This woman
It doesn’t matter if you don’t want a friend.” Father Lu said so powerfully that even Mother Lu noticed that her old man had grown much taller in an instant.
Only Lu Chen's forehead was constantly sweating, and the old Lu family's face had been completely lost. Lu Chen didn't know how to end this farce.
"Mr. Lu, please speak clearly. Why do you mean that my daughter is playing tricks behind your back? You, the old Lu family, have face, but we lose face? You are slandering, and I can definitely sue you!" Cheng Xinchu's father said more and more.
As he became more and more angry, he stood up and pointed at Dad Lu and started yelling curses.
"Son, you haven't explained the matter clearly to me yet." Obviously at this time, Lu Buwang wanted his son to return the words he told him.
"Dad, here's the thing, Cheng Xinchu is not my girlfriend. I lied to you at home!" Lu Chen explained awkwardly.
After Lu Buwang listened to Lu Chen's words, he sat back down. Apparently, his original arrogance was extinguished, because his fire was all nameless fire. It was not the Cheng family that was at fault in this matter, but his own family.
.
"Old man, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Lu Buwang gasping for air, his face turned pale. Mother Lu quickly helped her husband pat his chest to let him catch his breath.
"You traitor!" Dad Lu yelled at Lu Chen, and immediately passed out. No one present expected that it would end in this way. No matter what the situation was, saving people was the most important thing.
Several people worked together to send Lu Buwang to the nearest hospital. Cheng's father and Cheng's mother took their daughter directly and left the hospital, obviously not wanting to see Lu Chen's family again.
How could Mrs. Lu care about other people? She sat beside the hospital bed and looked at her husband. Chen Lu didn't expect that the matter would reach this point. If he had known better, he shouldn't have deceived his parents.
When the Cheng family was gone, Father Lu sat up from the hospital bed and took off the oxygen mask on his face. Mother Lu and Chen Lu were stunned for a moment.
"Dad, lie down quickly, lie down quickly." Lu Chen quickly supported his father and asked him to lie back on the bed to rest.
"Son, I'm fine. If I hadn't pretended to be sick, our old Lu family would have been completely embarrassed."
"You are just pretending to be emotional." Mother Lu slapped Father Lu directly on the body. "I was scared to death. Why didn't you communicate with me in advance?"
"You were beaten, and if you hit me again, I will really be sick. In the situation at that time, I had no time to talk to you about these things. I can only pretend to be sick to get through this time." Father Lu shrank and hid from Mother Lu's arms.
attack.
"Dad, I was wrong." Lu Chen lowered his head and apologized to his father.
"You, I don't blame you. Forget it, things are like this. Let's go to his house to apologize as a family someday. After all, we were wrong first." Father Lu is a person who sees things thoroughly. After all, this matter
It was caused by Lu Chen's lies.
"Dad, everything is up to you." Lu Chen nodded, it was time to show his expression.
After settling down with his parents, Lu Chen dialed Yao Wei's phone number.
"Hello? Xiaochen, what do you want from me?" Obviously, he didn't expect to receive news from Lu Chen at this time.
"Do you have any personnel files?" Lu Chen asked Yao Wei hurriedly. After all, he still didn't know where Cheng Xinchu lived.
"Yes, what's going on?" Yao Wei was also confused.
"Tell me Cheng Xinchu's home address now." Lu Chen didn't beat around the bush.
"Well, I will send it to you tomorrow. I have to go to the company to check the information to find out. By the way, why are you asking me this? It's not because you want to..." Yao Wei began to think about it.
"Come on, remember to send it to me tomorrow. I'll hang up first." Lu Chen didn't leave any room for Yao Wei's imagination and just cut off the phone.
