Chapter 229: Young People Need More Nourishment
The two quickly got dressed, Lin Tian mouthed, "Your mom’s outside, what do I do?"
Liou Qingcheng frantically glanced around the room, finally fixating on the wardrobe, and quickly pointed at it.
At that moment, Lin Tian instantly understood what Liou Qingcheng meant and hurriedly hid inside the wardrobe.
Crammed inside the dark wardrobe, Lin Tian finally felt truly awake. Just here for a nap, and now it feels like getting caught sneaking around. Does it have to be this bad?
"Mom~ why are you in my room so early?" Liou Qingcheng’s voice came through the wardrobe cracks to Lin Tian’s ears.
"Be honest, did you bring a man home last night?" an inquisitive voice rang out.
"Do you see anyone else in the room?" Liou Qingcheng tried to argue.
"No one else? Then whose shoes are those outside the door?"
"Crap!" Lin Tian just remembered that he had taken off his shoes in the dark at the doorway last night.
"Lin Tian!"
Liou Qingcheng’s voice rose like a pig being slaughtered: "Get out here!!!"
Scared, Lin Tian gulped and pushed open the wardrobe door, stepping out with his head down like a child who’d done something wrong.
"Oh my... Qingcheng, your boyfriend is quite handsome!!!" gazing at Lin Tian with bright eyes, the middle-aged beautiful woman standing next to Liou Qingcheng was thoroughly examining him.
"Mom, we’re just friends!"
"I get it! Your dad and I were just friends at first, and now we have you!" The middle-aged beautiful woman couldn’t stop grinning.
"Mom~ we really are just friends!" Liou Qingcheng blushed red, looking particularly cute.
Lin Tian looked at the beautiful middle-aged woman, internally shocked: "No wonder Liou Qingcheng is so beautiful, because the woman in front of me could be described as absolutely stunning!"
"In fact, with her mature charm, she’s even more captivating than Liou Qingcheng!"
After all, mature, sexy, and beautiful women are irresistible to men of any age.
"Have you two eaten yet?" the middle-aged woman asked Lin Tian.
Lin Tian first shook his head and then nodded. Without a clear hint from Liou Qingcheng, he didn’t dare respond randomly.
Liou Qingcheng glared at Lin Tian fiercely: "Did my mom ask if you’ve eaten?"
"Not yet!" Lin Tian shook his head.
"Why are you yelling all the time? You’re a girl, don’t act so boisterous! Be ladylike, understand?" The middle-aged woman lightly swatted Liou Qingcheng’s bottom, scolding her.
Liou Qingcheng pouted, clearly displeased but too afraid to rebel.
"You two go freshen up first, I’ll make you something to eat!" The middle-aged woman smiled broadly and left, giving Lin Tian a second glance as she passed him.
The look was like a mother-in-law becoming more pleased with her prospective son-in-law the more she observed him!
"Your mom, she..." Once the middle-aged woman left the room, Lin Tian pointed at her departing figure and asked.
Unfortunately, before Lin Tian could finish his sentence, he felt a pinch on the soft flesh of his waist.
"Ow, ow, it hurts!" Lin Tian cried out in pain.
Even a man of steel has two weak spots, and one is the soft flesh at the waist. Don’t believe it? Have a girl pinch it, and you’ll understand.
"My mom wants me to find a boyfriend quickly, but I don’t want to, so whatever she says later, you say we’re friends, got it?" Liou Qingcheng warned.
"Let go, I get it!" Lin Tian winced in pain.
"Hmph~!" Liou Qingcheng snorted coldly: "It’s all your fault! Making things so complicated!"
Lin Tian looked aggrieved, thinking, you asked me to sleep here, and now it’s my fault...
After a quick wash-up, the two headed to the dining room. By this time, the middle-aged woman had changed from her loungewear into something quite formal, with a white chiffon top and a knee-length pencil skirt, looking very voluptuous since having children.
Plus, with great maintenance, she looked like she could be Liou Qingcheng’s elder sister.
"I’m Qingcheng’s mother, Yan Xinrou!" The middle-aged woman introduced herself while placing three fried eggs in front of Lin Tian.
"Young people should eat more!" Yan Xinrou smiled as Lin Tian stared dumbfoundedly at the three fried eggs in front of him.
That one sentence made Liou Qingcheng, who just took a sip of milk, spray it all out.
"Mom~ how can you say that?" Liou Qingcheng wiped her mouth with a napkin.
"Mom’s been around, what don’t I know?"
"Look at those dark circles under your eyes, you two must not have rested well last night, right?"
Yan Xinrou ignored Liou Qingcheng’s rebuttal and continued talking to herself.
"Milk, ham, make sure to finish all of this!" Just as Lin Tian stuffed one fried egg into his mouth, Yan Xinrou placed two more plates in front of him.
"Gulp!" Lin Tian found Yan Xinrou’s enthusiasm overwhelming. After Liou Qingcheng warned him, he didn’t dare speak unnecessarily.
He silently endured and swallowed it all, just like eating yellow lotus while silently suffering without being able to express it.
Lin Tian’s wolfing down was observed by Yan Xinrou, who raised her eyebrows, beaming with delight.
"Young people must know moderation, and also... always protect yourselves with safety measures!" Yan Xinrou suddenly remarked while they ate.
"Pfft~!"
"Cough... cough!"
Liou Qingcheng sprayed milk again, and Lin Tian choked on his third fried egg.
"Eat slowly... don’t rush!" Unaware of any inappropriate remarks, Yan Xinrou hurriedly handed Lin Tian a tissue.
"Mom! I beg you, please stop talking!" Liou Qingcheng almost pleaded.
Yan Xinrou gave Liou Qingcheng a side-eye, then widened her eyes, looking at Lin Tian.
Under her gaze, Lin Tian struggled to finish all the food on the table.
"Full now? Qingcheng, go wash the dishes!" Yan Xinrou ordered Liou Qingcheng, who was still watching the news on her phone.
Liou Qingcheng was about to retort, didn’t you usually do the dishwashing? Why today do you want me to?
But seeing Yan Xinrou’s glaring eyes, she discontentedly stuck her little tongue out and took the dishes to the kitchen.
Once Liou Qingcheng left, Yan Xinrou immediately moved a chair next to Lin Tian and sat down: "Lin Tian, right? How old are you now?"
"Almost nineteen!"
"Hmm~ same age as Qingcheng!" Yan Xinrou nodded contentedly and continued to inquire: "Do you have a job? Are you a local?"
"Local, no job!"
Lin Tian answered truthfully: "I’m still a student!"
After saying this, Lin Tian glanced at Liou Qingcheng still in the kitchen, thinking maybe this way her mom won’t see him as potential son-in-law material?
"Student, huh?" As expected, Yan Xinrou furrowed her eyebrows, but then she smiled again: "Being a student is great; you can directly work in our family company after graduation!"
Lin Tian tried again to dissuade Yan Xinrou from seeing him as a son-in-law: "Auntie, although I’m a local, my family isn’t well-off!"
"Not well-off? That’s okay, our family isn’t lacking money!"
Yan Xinrou’s unexpected response completely shattered Lin Tian’s resolve. Weren’t people saying that a man without a house, car, or good job can’t find a wife?
Why is it different for him?
No job, graduate and head straight to the family company to work, no money, her family has it!
Seems like they’ve set their sights on him!
