Chapter 634: Chapter 334: Meeting the Parents Chapter 634: Chapter 334: Meeting the Parents The plane landed at Taiyuan Airport.

Xu Qingyan unbuckled his seat belt, and Pei Muchan also stood up.

They didn’t bring much with them, all the gifts had been checked in, and they got a car immediately upon leaving the airport.

The summers in Jinzhong are cool, but in winter there is central heating so strong it dries the air to the point of nosebleeds.

Once Xu Qingyan stepped out of the airport, the first thing he felt was the dryness, which he found slightly uncomfortable.

He glanced at Pei Muchan, who seemed to be unaffected.

“Having a car waiting upon arrival, nice,” Xu Qingyan remarked, feeling around the car’s interior, “I’ve never driven this model before, it’s quite fresh.”
The climate in Shanxi is different from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, it’s generally not hot here.

Compared to several ‘oven’ cities, the summers here are downright cool.

“Just a random car, make do with it,” Pei Muchan said as she smoothed her hair in front of her forehead.

Awesome, locals sure have clout when they talk.

The thought of Pei Muchan’s civil servant family gave Xu Qingyan a strange feeling.

Could it be that they really call the shots locally?

If so, he needed to integrate himself quickly.

Just kidding, not being kicked out would count as a success.

Xu Qingyan hadn’t really thought about achieving any particular goal by officially visiting, he came just for Pei Muchan.

There had to be such a process, after all, they were sleeping together.

Whether it was possible, or how much resistance he’d face in the middle, he hadn’t thought about at all.

This world isn’t one where one plus one plus one equals three, and if you can’t calculate the final answer, it’s still meaningful to stop midway.

What that answer is, isn’t important.

He just wanted to make this move, to let Pei Muchan remember the process.

Remember they almost got married, not that he didn’t try hard enough, maybe some things would come in handy later.

Of course, these are pessimistic and negative thoughts, which he hadn’t given much consideration to.

The drive wasn’t too far, Xu Qingyan followed the navigation the whole way, passing many familiar landmarks.

Although he’d never been here before, it was his first time.

As the co-driver, Pei Muchan’s face grew increasingly uncomfortable the closer they got to home.

In the last few kilometers, she outright stopped talking, looking grim.

Driving the car, Xu Qingyan glanced at her occasionally and couldn’t help but find it a bit funny.

What’s with the pre-cooking of emotions, isn’t it a bit too cute?

Pei Muchan has been all her life, her spirit not weaker than anyone, right?

In the afternoon, Xu Qingyan parked the car in a residential complex parking lot and got out.

He also took gifts out of the trunk, all tobacco and alcohol, bought by Pei Muchan.

At that moment, Pei Muchan also got out of the car, not much stuff so she didn’t lend a hand.

“Let’s go.”
“Uh, I’m a bit nervous,” Xu Qingyan suddenly said.

“There’s nothing to be nervous about, just follow me,” Pei Muchan held his arm as they walked forward, but her eyes grew darker as they went, causing Xu Qingyan to break out in a cold sweat.

What if they started yelling later, what should he say?

Standing aside and watching isn’t good, but besides standing, it seems like there’s nothing else to do.

But generally speaking, he shouldn’t be the one getting yelled at, right?

Before he could think further, the elevator doors opened.

Pei Muchan stepped out, found two pink slippers in the entrance way, put on one pair and gave the other to Xu Qingyan.

“Both are mine, one pair was too large and I was too lazy to return them.

They’re new, make do with them, we’ll leave soon.”
“Okay,” Xu Qingyan was genuinely sweating.

Going to leave soon?

Damn, is the situation that dire?

Now he was really getting nervous.

He put on the slippers, which despite being of big size, still seemed a bit narrow on his feet.

But they were not too small, and he carried the gifts into the house, wanting to be ahead of Pei Muchan.

But Pei Muchan opened the door first and knocked on it.

Soon, an elderly couple appeared.

The middle-aged man looked stern, his gaze at Pei Muchan carried a hint of displeasure.

His second look towards Xu Qingyan was full of scrutiny, he seemed difficult to get along with.

The woman looked to be in her thirties, though she was probably older.

Her skin was in good condition, dressed like a rich lady, she gave him a friendly smile.

“Hello Uncle, hello Aunt,” Xu Qingyan took the initiative to carry the gifts and put them on the table, “I’m Xiao Chan’s boyfriend, it’s my first time visiting and I was unsure what to bring…”
“Humph,” Father Pei huffed audibly, “You don’t look very old.

How old are you?”
“Twenty-five,” Xu Qingyan purposely reported one year more, no one would believe twenty-seven or twenty-eight, “This year twenty-five, almost twenty-six after the New Year.”
“So much older, Pei Muchan, you planning to snag a golden bachelor?” Father Pei’s tone sounded odd, but Xu Qingyan could tell it wasn’t directed at himself.

Pei Muchan kept a cold face, “I don’t like rigid old men.”
Hearing this, Xu Qingyan thought to himself, damn it.

Could she really say that?

Holy smokes, making double entendres in front of her father-in-law, ballsy.

Father Pei naturally also caught the implication in his daughter’s words, getting so angry his face turned red.

“What are you talking about!”
Before he could say something, he was suddenly pulled by Madam He, who reprimanded.

“It’s the New Year, the child just got back, what are you doing!”
These words seemed to have a magical effect, and Father Pei immediately quieted down.

Looking like he didn’t want to talk to Pei Muchan, and Pei Muchan felt the same.

Xu Qingyan, an outsider, stood in the middle of the living room, awkwardly.

“Have a seat first, since you’re here you brought gifts too.” Madam He asked them to sit down, preparing to boil water for tea, “You sit, we’ll have dinner at home today.”
Xu Qingyan couldn’t follow up with that, whether they’d eat or not wasn’t his decision to make.

“No need, we will leave soon,” Pei Muchan didn’t want to stay indeed, she came back to see Father Pei’s attitude, seeing that he was still the same, she got somewhat petulant.
