So he turned around and headed over there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meeting Su Ruochu at a shopping mall, Chen Fan saw that the family was only carrying a few shopping bags and couldn't help but ask with a smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've come all this way, why not buy more gifts to take back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu said softly, \"My dad said there's no need. We don't lack anything at home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, by the way, my dad had me buy a set of clothes for your parents. Take it with you when you go back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuecheng asked with a smile, \"Xiao Chen, if you're busy, you don't need to accompany us specially. Young people should prioritize their careers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, I've finished all my work over there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where shall we go next? How about we have a good look around?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan suggested with a smile, \"Since you've come all this way, do you want to visit Beijing's famous attractions like the Forbidden City, Old Summer Palace, or the Great Wall?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuecheng waved his hand with a smile, \"No need, no need. Your leg isn't fully recovered, so we shouldn't run around too much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You two should go to these places together some other time. We don't want to be third wheels.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So in the afternoon, the family just strolled around Wangfujing Street, then found a nearby restaurant to have dinner, before heading home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At home, Su Ruochu and her mom were washing fruits in the kitchen, while Chen Fan kept his father-in-law company in the living room, drinking tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuecheng poured a cup of tea for Chen Fan, then started speaking with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're going back tomorrow noon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So soon? You've come all this way, why not stay a couple more days?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuecheng waved his hand, \"There's still a lot to do back home. If it weren't for your mom insisting on coming to Beijing to see our daughter, I really couldn't have gotten away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, with you here, what do we have to worry about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's better to go back early, so we don't make you two uncomfortable here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Su Ruochu came out of the kitchen carrying a fruit platter. Hearing this, she couldn't help but complain coquettishly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, what nonsense are you talking about again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha,\" Su Xuecheng laughed, \"See? This girl is still shy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan hesitated for a moment, but still decided to remind his father-in-law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, I remember you're in the city agency business for Xiaolingtong, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuecheng nodded with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is business good?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad. Made some money these past two years, but can't compare to you, of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan pondered for a couple of seconds, then tentatively said, \"Actually, with the development of communication technology in recent years, personal mobile phones have already gained popularity among quite a few people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In a few more years, personal mobile phones will become more and more common, and may even become a necessity that everyone carries when they go out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think Xiaolingtong have their advantages, but as mobile phones become more popular, Xiaolingtong will eventually be phased out of the market.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, have you considered taking this opportunity to switch to another business?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuecheng was stunned for a moment. At this time, Lin Wanxiu came over and interjected with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why change when the business is doing well?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Chen, your words are a bit alarmist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mobile phones are convenient, true, but their high prices are not something ordinary people can afford.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although Xiaolingtong are not as practical as mobile phones, they're cheap, and many people are still willing to buy them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Switching businesses now would be like giving money away to others for nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Wanxiu shook her head, feeling that Chen Fan was exaggerating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xuecheng glanced at his wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, I think Xiao Chen has a point. The profits these past two years have indeed been less than before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But Xiao Chen, your mom also has a point. Mobile phones are good, but they're expensive. For people without much money, they're still more willing to choose the cheaper Xiaolingtong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan understood that at this stage, his father-in-law was still unwilling to give up this profitable business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his memory, Xiaolingtong started to decline in 2007.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By 2011, they had completely exited the stage of history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could only hint at such things, not explain them clearly, otherwise he wouldn't be able to justify his knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were still three years left. He'd find a way to gradually persuade his father-in-law then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family sat together and chatted for a while longer before it was time to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The house Chen Fan bought was a two-bedroom apartment. He hadn't considered the situation of living with his in-laws beforehand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, it seemed there weren't enough rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Chen Fan and Su Ruochu were engaged, they hadn't officially registered their marriage yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of her parents, Chen Fan didn't dare suggest sharing a room with Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he took the initiative and said he could sleep on the couch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Su Xuecheng immediately objected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your leg hasn't fully recovered. How can you sleep on the couch?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're all family here. Tonight, just sleep in the same room with Ruochu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan looked at Su Ruochu, who had already blushed and sneaked into the bathroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Wanxiu opened her mouth, but in the end said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid embarrassing the young couple, Su Xuecheng gave his wife a look. The two of them went to wash up first, then entered the side bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The living room suddenly became quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu didn't dare to look Chen Fan in the eye. She lowered her head and said softly, \"I... I'll go take a shower.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she finally finished her shower and came out, she found Chen Fan still sitting on the couch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu was a bit awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... why haven't you gone to sleep yet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was waiting for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan understood what she was nervous about and suggested quietly, \"If you feel uncomfortable, I can make do in the living room for one night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu quickly shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your leg is still injured.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's go to the bedroom. After all... after all, we're engaged.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his wife saying this, Chen Fan naturally didn't act reserved anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he still insisted on sleeping on the couch in this situation, it wouldn't be upholding principles, it would be stupid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the bedroom, Su Ruochu gently closed the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having just showered, she was only wearing a cute, loose nightgown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her long hair was still damp, and her whole body gave off a pleasant milky scent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan sat on the bed, smiling as he watched this scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like appreciating a perfect work of art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you looking at?\" Su Ruochu mumbled, feeling a bit embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wife, how can there be such a perfect figure and face in this world?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heaven must really favor you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu glared at Chen Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Talking nonsense again. Tell me, what are you up to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan grabbed her small hand and pulled her onto the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned over, pressing Su Ruochu beneath him, and gazed into her eyes at close range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think I'm up to? You're asking when you already know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu blushed and said softly, \"We can't. My parents... are next door.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the girl's innocent look, Chen Fan couldn't resist teasing her a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know what marks a girl's maturity?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's when she starts doing bad things behind her parents' backs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wife, let's secretly do some bad things together tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu protected her chest with both hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There will... be noises.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan directly turned over and lay on the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's okay, I can grit my teeth and endure it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wife, come on, don't treat me like a delicate flower and pity me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Punish me hard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1406,"2026-06-05T15:07:00.072Z",1,"novelbin.me","e328a06c44c7bf8c86dbd3858e15aa948cba838dff4c6ddad5b13b586438300e","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-626","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-624",761,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-cover.jpg"]
