Chapter 62: Mom is having a headache; her son has too many "girlfriends."
Xia Youran smiled at her and said:
"Auntie, I'm not here again, I've always lived here."
Zhang's mother's eyes widened immediately:
"Then why aren't you going home? Aren't your parents worried?"
Xia Youran explained:
"I have no home anymore, and I don't know where my parents went."
The last time Zhang's mother met Xia Youran, she only thought she was her son's friend.
Zhang Lingyun deliberately remained vague at the time, not revealing everything.
Xia Youran pulled this stunt to deliberately reveal her identity so that Zhang's mother would know of her existence.
After discovering her rival, this little girl also started to become cunning.
Zhang's mother scratched her head and asked again:
"So, what exactly is your relationship with my little one?"
Xia Youran said frankly:
"I want to be with him forever."
Zhang's mother frowned and questioned:
"But you two are still so young, it's hard to say what will happen in the future, isn't it?"
Xia Youran was very determined and said:
"As long as he doesn't change his mind, that's fine."
Zhang's mother then asked cautiously:
"How far have you two gotten?"
Xia Youran bit her lower lip lightly and gave a vague answer:
"Anyway, I can't be with anyone else. If he dares to leave me, I'll commit suicide."
Zhang's mother gasped.
I never imagined my silly son would become so capable.
After careful consideration, she realized that the girl was actually quite nice.
She's so beautiful, and a "witch" at that, finding a job should be easy for her in the future.
Moreover, she lost her family early on, so the dowry of 388,000 yuan was saved.
Thinking of this, Zhang's mother smiled and said:
"Xia, don't worry! Auntie will never let that boy down."
But Xia Youran pouted and said:
"He's a womanizer now; he has other girls on the side."
Zhang's mother quickly defended herself:
"No, no, my son is very well-behaved. You must have misunderstood."
Just then, Zhang's father, who was looking down at his phone, strolled over to the side.
He said happily:
"Old Zhuang actually invited me for drinks! He even said his daughter, Zhuang Wenwen, is Lingyun's girlfriend!"
Just as Zhang's mother had managed to calm Xia Youran down, she suddenly heard this and quickly interrupted him:
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Zhang's father, however, remained defiant:
"How am I talking nonsense? This is a WeChat message from Lao Zhuang! If you don't believe me, ask Ling Yun. Hasn't he been pursuing her for two years?"
Zhang's mother called out anxiously:
"Shut up! Shut up!"
Mr. Zhang felt somewhat aggrieved and said:
"Why should I shut up? I think the Zhuang family is great, and Lao Zhuang can drink a lot too."
Zhang's mother said irritably:
"You think anyone who drinks with you is a good person, right?"
Zhang's father muttered:
"Anyway, people who can drink aren't bad people."
Zhang's mother was so angry she could hardly contain herself:
"Then you can move in with Lao Zhuang! Don't ever see me or Zai Zai again!"
"What are you saying?"
Mr. Zhang was still a little confused, then he glanced at Mrs. Zhang's phone.
They discovered that the person on the screen wasn't their son, but a little girl with a cold expression.
He shuddered and instantly sensed that something terrible was about to happen.
Zhang's mother quickly explained with a smile:
"Xia, don't worry, Zai Zai only loves you now."
Xia Youran let out a breath and said:
"It's not just Zhuang Wenwen. There's another senior student at school, and another shameless, wicked woman..."
Xia Youran then proceeded to criticize every girl she knew in one go.
Zhang's father listened from the other side, his mouth agape.
He muttered to himself:
"Is my son really that capable? He doesn't seem to have inherited my genes! He looks more like a student council president from university!"
Zhang's mother glared at him again:
"Shut up! I'll deal with you later!"
Zhang's mother still wanted to try to smooth things over for Zhang Lingyun, but she suddenly felt it was too difficult.
My son has so many girls around him, how am I supposed to cover for him?
Just then, Zhang Lingyun, shirtless, walked out of the bathroom.
"Hey! It's your turn to wash."
Xia Youran slipped into the bathroom without saying a word.
Zhang Lingyun was still a little puzzled; why was this girl acting like she was running away?
Then, he saw the phone screen and suddenly felt his vision go black.
On the other side of the screen, Zhang's mother, wearing a pale face mask, glared fiercely at him:
"Little one, come sit down and tell me what happened."
Zhang Lingyun felt somewhat helpless and could only sit down in front of her phone.
Until now, he hasn't realized the seriousness of the situation and still thinks that what his mother wants to ask is just about Xia Youran living here.
Zhang Lingyun then said:
"I took her in because I felt sorry for her, just like I adopted a cat."
Zhang's mother shouted angrily:
"Nonsense! How can you treat a girl that big like a pet? You brought her home, so you have to take responsibility for her."
Zhang Lingyun clicked his tongue.
I feel like my mom's values are too upright.
But Zhang's father interrupted from the side and asked:
"What about Lao Zhuang's daughter?"
Zhang Lingyun asked:
"Who?"
Mr. Zhang smacked his lips and said:
"Zhuang Wenwen".
Zhang Lingyun suddenly realized and said:
"Oh, her? She's a thing of the past."
"Didn't you pursue her for two years?"
"But she didn't like me."
"So she's changed her mind now."
"I've changed my mind. I'm not going back to what I was doing."
Mr. Zhang sighed:
"Why are you so unlike me?"
Zhang's mother pushed Zhang's father aside and said:
"I don't like Zhuang Wenwen either; she seems really pretentious. And I can't talk to her mother either."
Zhang Lingyun breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"That's good!"
But then, Zhang's mother asked:
"Is there another girl with dark skin, a cheerful and lively type, also your girlfriend?"
Zhang Lingyun was taken aback for a moment, then quickly explained:
"No, that's my senior sister. Don't listen to Xia Youran's nonsense."
Zhang's mother asked again:
"Was the girl who took off her clothes as soon as she walked in also something Xia Youran made up?"
Zhang Lingyun suddenly felt a headache coming on.
He thought to himself, "Why does Xia Youran tell everyone everything?"
He had no choice but to explain:
"Mom, that was an accident, there was a reason for it."
Zhang's mother sighed helplessly and asked:
"Sweetheart, I don't want to pry into the specifics. I just want to ask you, which one do you want to choose?"
"Well... listen to me... actually..."
Zhang Lingyun went to great lengths and finally managed to temporarily fool them.
After hanging up the video call, Zhang Lingyun felt completely exhausted.
Just then, he saw Xia Youran and secretly slipped out of the bathroom.
With a whoosh, he slipped into his bedroom.
But before she could close the door properly, a large hand reached inside.
Xia Youran shouted in a panic:
"What are you doing? I want to sleep!"
Zhang Lingyun coldly pushed open the door and asked:
"You've caused trouble, and you still want to sleep?"
Xia Youran stubbornly said:
"What trouble did I cause? I just told the truth!"
Zhang Lingyun said:
"Can you just tell the truth like that? Looks like I need to teach you a lesson and show you where you went wrong."
Xia Youran immediately softened and said pitifully:
"Please let me off the hook today, I have a mock exam tomorrow!"
Zhang Lingyun said:
"That depends on your attitude in admitting your mistake, whether you are sincere or not."
Zhang Lingyun squeezed inside and locked the door behind him.
