Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Zhang Baoguo also said:

"Look at how she looks when she lies, and how she looks when she speaks normally — they're completely different, aren't they!"

Dong Miaoqing asked:

"Are you saying that Xiao Huang might not even exist?"

Zhang Baoguo said:

"Our tutoring hasn't failed to that extent, has it? Have some confidence — it's not that he might not exist, he one hundred percent does not exist!"

Dong Miaoqing said:

"Then what about that Wang Xiaohua?"

Zhang Baoguo said:

"Don't say anything yet. Let our daughter bring him over for a look first, then we'll talk."

Zhang Ruoshui washed the bowls and chopsticks and came out of the Kitchen:

"Dad, Mom, the bowls and chopsticks are all washed and placed in the Disinfection Cabinet to disinfect. I'm going back to my Room to rest for a bit!"

Zhang Baoguo waved his hand:

"Go on, go on. Even if you stay in the Living Room you don't Watch TV!"

"Hee hee, thanks Dad, you spoil me the most!" Zhang Ruoshui hurried into the Bedroom.

Zhang Baoguo then said quietly to Dong Miaoqing:

"This girl, she's definitely gone to tell that Wang Xiaohua."

Dong Miaoqing said:

"This probably isn't some Ghost Ideas that Wang Xiaohua gave her, is it?"

Zhang Baoguo said:

"High probability it is. You know our daughter's IQ — how could she have the brains to come up with a Strategy like this, and she doesn't have the guts either!"

Dong Miaoqing questioned:

"You say she doesn't have the guts, so how come she did it anyway?"

Zhang Baoguo sighed:

"What else could it be? Because of love, of course!"

Zhang Ruoshui entered the Bedroom, her Mood wonderful!

She completely didn't expect that her clumsy lies had long been seen through by her own dad and mom.

She hurriedly took out her Mobile Phone and first sent Du Xiaojuan a WeChat:

"Xiao Juan, your Strategy really works! My parents told me to bring Xiao Hua over to meet them next week!"

Du Xiaojuan replied:

"That's great. Then have Xiao Hua prepare. Meeting the parents next week, he has to perform well!"

"Okay!"

Zhang Ruoshui hurriedly sent Wang Xiaohua a WeChat:

"Xiao Hua, Xiao Hua, calling Xiao Hua!"

"What's up?" Wang Xiaohua replied before long.

"My parents, it seems they've already Accepted you!"

Zhang Ruoshui hurriedly typed a reply, so Excited her hands Trembled a little.

"My parents said to bring you over to meet them next week!"

Wang Xiaohua received this message from Zhang Ruoshui, but he wasn't very happy; on the contrary, he was very Calm.

"Mm-hmm, then I'll prepare. Next week I'll go meet your parents."

Being together with Zhang Ruoshui, to tell the truth, emotionally he had hardly any fluctuations from start to finish.

Not like before when he was with Li Jianjia.

That kind of Happiness, joy, even Excited emotion could spread through his whole body, letting him feel it clearly, letting him be very certain — that was true love.

"Right, Xiao Hua, my dad also said to bring your University Diploma."

Zhang Ruoshui sent another Sentence.

Wang Xiaohua knew this was because Zhang Ruoshui's dad didn't believe he graduated from Tsinghua University.

But this was normal too; if it were him, he wouldn't believe it either.

After all, the gap in IQ between the two was too large.

But Wang Xiaohua didn't mind at all, and said:

"Fine, I'll bring it then."

Then he asked:

"Did you tell your parents about my situation?"

Zhang Ruoshui replied:

"I did. They said height can't be eaten as a Meal. They also said, someone so outstanding from Tsinghua University, how could he fall for me? They're Afraid you're a fraud, so they said to check the Graduation Certificate."

Wang Xiaohua asked again:

"No car, no house, no savings — they don't mind?"

Zhang Ruoshui answered honestly:

"They don't mind. My dad even said you'll be a Big Leader in the future!"

Wang Xiaohua didn't know whether to laugh or cry:

"Being a Big Leader — is that your parents' standard for judging a future son-in-law?"

Then he asked again:

"Did you tell them I've been married once before?"

"Ah, that I didn't mention..." Zhang Ruoshui's face showed surprise, then she hurriedly added: "I was just caught up in being happy, I forgot about this matter!"

"Should be fine, right..."

Wang Xiaohua just said:

"Then let's talk again when we meet next week."

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.

This Friday, Wang Xiaohua had just gotten off work and returned.

Tomorrow he was going to meet Zhang Ruoshui's parents, but this whole week he'd been busy with work, and to this day still hadn't done any preparation.

So right now he was wondering: should he go to the county town now to buy some local specialties, or wait until tomorrow when he reached Guangzhou to buy the meeting gifts?

First meeting, he definitely had to give Zhang Ruoshui's parents something — that's basic etiquette. Whether it's expensive or not doesn't really matter, but basic etiquette must at least be observed — that's respect for others.

Just as he was hesitating, at this moment Wang Xiaohua's phone rang.

It was Du Xiaojuan calling.

"Hello, Eldest Sister-in-law, what's up?"

Du Xiaojuan said:

"You come down to Guangzhou tonight. Tomorrow I'll accompany you and Ruoshui to buy the meeting gifts."

Wang Xiaohua was stunned — his own Eldest Sister-in-law really cared a lot about his and Zhang Ruoshui's matter.

But an elder brother is like a father, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother — Du Xiaojuan caring a bit for him was only natural and reasonable.

"Okay okay, then I'll pack up a bit and set off."

Wang Xiaohua didn't say much more, directly agreed.

Among family, saying too many polite words would instead create distance.

He knew Du Xiaojuan was doing it for his own good.

So he packed up, ate a casual meal by the street, then took the bus to the county town.

Arriving at the county city side, he found his Second Brother, borrowed a car from him, then drove down to Guangzhou.

When borrowing the car, Wang Erhai looked quite embarrassed:

"Third Brother, I mentioned before about buying you a car. Been busy with work all the way until now and still haven't bought it. How about this — when you come back from Guangzhou, I'll go buy you one!"

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Second Brother, no need for now. Still no use for a car right now. Going down to the countryside every day, that motorcycle is enough."

Wang Erhai said:

"Must, must — definitely must arrange it for you. After all you're my real brother, I can't go back on my word!"

Wang Xiaohua smiled, not knowing what to say.

Wang Erhai said: "How about you find time to look online, then tell me the model you pick, I'll pay in full."

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Really no need. Wait until after marriage when it's useful, then we'll talk!"

Wang Erhai thought a moment, also felt it made sense:

"Then when you and Zhang Ruoshui get married, I'll give you a car as a wedding gift! Same words — you pick one online and let me know. If you don't say, I'll just have to buy an expensive one!"

Wang Xiaohua hurriedly said: "Didn't you say Volkswagen Magotan before? That one's great!"

"Deal!"

Wang Xiaohua drove Wang Erhai's car, alone, down to Guangzhou.

Because it was Wang Xiaohua's first time going to Zhang Ruoshui's home, Wang Erhai didn't go along — once the marriage is settled, next time the whole family will go together.

Night fell, clear stars twinkled.

Wang Xiaohua drove alone on the pitch-black highway.

Tomorrow he would go meet Zhang Ruoshui's parents.

He surprisingly wasn't excited, wasn't happy, wasn't nervous either.

His heart was calm, like dead water.

He also didn't know why he could be this calm.

As if whether it succeeds or fails, he didn't really care either way.

Everything was merely based on etiquette, proceeding routinely step by step.
