Chapter 546: The Legendary Meeting the Parents

Luo Mo knew part of what was happening in the outside world because of "Young China", but he was completely unaware of the rest.

The team setting the Beijing Paper for the college entrance exam included the first four lines of the lyrics to "Young China" as an option for the essay topic, and they would be discussing a final decision within these two days.

As for Luo Mo, he was currently in front of the full-length mirror at home, playing a little dress-up game.

It was his first time going to Xu Chujing's home to meet her parents, so the first impression was quite important.

"What a pity, my figure used to look good in anything, but now it's the opposite; the clothes that used to fit me perfectly are all a bit too big now." Luo Mo was a bit between laughter and tears.

When he arrived in the living room, Luo Ba and Luo Ma were both sitting on the sofa waiting for him.

"What's wrong?" Luo Mo asked.

Seeing their son's gaunt appearance, his parents were immensely heartbroken, and they began to nag him about some precautions for his first visit to a home.

Listening to them, Luo Mo felt as if they were instructing a child.

But in the eyes of parents, a child is always a child, isn't that so?

Before he left, Luo Ma worriedly said, "Is it really okay for you to go looking this thin?"

"It should be fine," Luo Mo said.

Everyone has their own personality and values, and every family has different standards for picking a son-in-law.

Some people might like the type who is career-driven, but some parents might actually dislike someone like Luo Mo who "abuses his body" for his career.

It all depends on the person.

Since Xu Chujing chose this timing, there shouldn't be much of a problem.

A girlfriend with an older-sister personality won't do things rashly; she understands what needs to be understood.

"How fragrant!" Luo Mo sighed in his heart.

For his first visit, Luo Mo didn't bring too many things.

He had his master help him pick out the tea, because Xu Chujing said her father was quite knowledgeable about tea.

Luo Mo didn't know anything about it, and Luo Ba and Luo Ma certainly knew even less. On the contrary, ever since the old man retired, he had been cultivating his character every day, researching this and that, so he knew quite a bit.

Of course, there was another very important factor here.

Old Man Tong is a very, very, very wealthy old man.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to afford to fuss over such things.

After getting into the nanny van, there was a drive of over half an hour to the destination.

Luo Mo first sent a WeChat message to Xu Chujing, saying, "On the way."

Xu Chujing replied immediately: "Okay, waiting for you."

Luo Mo sat in the custom-made airline seat inside the nanny van, scrolling through his phone.

"Three more official media outlets named and praised me this afternoon." Luo Mo smiled slightly.

He felt that he might be the celebrity in the entertainment industry who receives the most praise from official media every year.

If other celebrities were praised, their fans would have long since run around announcing it and blowing it out of proportion.

The Mo-sheng-ren are all a bit numb...

At most, they would just roast Luo Mo a little less for two days, and then continue roasting him after two days.

The 【Mo Xu CP】 fans didn't know that Luo Mo had gone to meet the parents; otherwise, they would probably be going crazy over the sugar today.

After arriving at the location, Luo Mo stood in front of the door and pressed the doorbell.

He took a deep breath and thought to himself, "Don't be nervous."

Uncle Xu, Aunt Zhao, standing before you is—"Luo 'represented the youth group at the gala yesterday, named and praised by ten official media outlets today' Mo".

What is there to be afraid of!?

But when the door opened, Luo Mo's heart rate still accelerated.

A man who wasn't even nervous about the Spring Festival Gala was experiencing the feeling of nervousness after a long time.

………

………

The Xu Family lives in a large flat in a high-end residential complex in Beijing.

Unlike Tong Qinglin who likes a Siheyuan, Xu Chong'an is in the hotel business and personally prefers this feeling of overlooking the night view from a height.

In Beijing, where every inch of land is worth an inch of gold, the price of a 495-square-meter large flat is also quite terrifying.

The ones who opened the door for Luo Mo were Xu Chujing and her mother, Zhao Tong.

Ms. Zhao was well-maintained and was a beautiful woman with lingering charm; Xu Chujing's brows and eyes must have been inherited from her mother.

As for why the Heavenly Queen is so grand, beautiful, and has such a good figure, Ms. Zhao is likely the one to thank.

"Little Luo is here?" Zhao Tong said, "Is it okay to call you Little Luo?"

"That's fine, Auntie." Luo Mo smiled as he changed his shoes.

Zhao Tong sized up the young man in front of her and thought to herself, "He really has lost so much weight."

When she and Old Xu watched the 【Shanghai Television Festival】 together before, Luo Mo was still dashing and handsome when he went on stage to receive his award; he was nothing like this gaunt appearance now.

But Xu Chujing had already prepared her parents, and she even pulled them to watch the Youth Day Gala together last night.

It must be said that the stage for "Young China" was indeed enough to shock one's soul.

After entering the house, Luo Mo saw Xu Chong'an standing there fiddling with flowers and plants.

He didn't come to the door to welcome the guest, which was him putting on airs, but he also didn't sit on the sofa waiting for people, which was a very friendly attitude.

"You're here." Xu Chong'an said in a neutral tone.

"Yes, hello Uncle." Luo Mo said immediately.

Xu Chong'an looked quite scholarly. Luo Mo had originally thought that Xu Chujing's skin was so good because she inherited her mother's advantages, but he didn't expect her father to also have fair skin.

He was wearing a pair of Glasses, and after taking one look at Luo Mo, he continued to tinker with the flowers and plants.

In recent years, online activities of posting photos have become popular from time to time, showing off photos of parents when they were young.

Xu Chujing is Afraid she could win in such an activity.

Because Luo Mo arrived early and the domestic helper was still cooking, after Luo Mo put down the things he brought, Xu Chong'an invited him to the tea table to drink tea.

Xu Chujing watched from the side, only feeling it was somewhat amusing; it was the first time she had seen Luo Mo looking so reserved, and she even wanted to take a picture of him.

You must know, when he was still a trainee, she was already a dignified top-tier diva.

Yet he had never been intimidated by Xu Chujing.

Xu Chong'an glanced at the tea leaves Luo Mo brought and commented, "This is very good tea; it's usually hard to get, it must have taken quite a bit of effort."

"I entrusted my master to help," Luo Mo answered honestly.

Xu Chong'an nodded and said, "Then thank your master for me."

At the tea table, it was always Xu Chong'an leading the conversation. Luo Mo answered what he understood and said he didn't know what he didn't.

Many people with half-filled buckets like to slosh around, or can bluff ordinary people, but they definitely couldn't escape Xu Chong'an's discerning eyes.

Honestly, although Luo Mo is in the entertainment industry, in terms of public image, there is indeed nothing to pick on.

Donated over a hundred million, recognized by state media, powerful professional ability, overflowing with talent...

Zhao Tong also asked her daughter in private: "Does this person, Xiao Luo, have any obvious shortcomings?"

Xu Chujing thought in her heart: "Does being particularly lecherous count?"

But Luo Mo doesn't have any scandals that have been genuinely confirmed; he is still very self-disciplined. Can it be called lecherous when it comes to his girlfriend?

The house was a bit too quiet, which easily leads to awkwardness, so Xu Chujing turned on the television in the living room and adjusted the volume to be relatively low.

As it turned out, the moment the television was turned on, it was CCTV.

CCTV happened to be reviewing last night's Youth Day Gala, praising the stages of Dislocated Time and Space and Saying for the Youth of China.

It was as if CCTV was talking to the Xu Family across the screen: "Good son-in-law, this is a good son-in-law!"

During the meal, everyone chatted about some daily life matters.

The Xu Family doesn't have that "no talking while eating or sleeping" rule; one can communicate at the dinner table.

After finishing the meal, the atmosphere was quite good.

After eating, Xu Chujing suggested that Luo Mo accompany Xu Chong'an to play chess.

This actually made Luo Mo feel a bit eager to try.

"It's reached my field of expertise!"

His master Tong Qinglin is fond of chess, and Luo Mo often accompanies him, always able to fight to a draw.

Several senior fellow apprentices don't accompany the master to play chess; they always have to rack their brains, show painful expressions, and then suffer miserable defeats every time.

Only Luo Mo can play freely and can also make Old Master Tong feel satisfied.

This is the joy of experts exchanging moves!

As a result, he was beaten to a pulp by Xu Chong'an in just a few moves.

Luo Mo: "???"

Is it a problem with his master, or a problem with Uncle Xu?

It wasn't until nearly nine o'clock in the evening that Luo Mo left the Xu Family.

After seeing Luo Mo off, Xu Chujing returned home, sat on the sofa, and asked her parents for their first impression of Luo Mo; this was very important.

"Quite good, it's just that he's really too thin recently; tell him he must take care of his health after finishing filming," Zhao Tong said.

Being able to say such things means she likes him; she has already started to care about him.

In this family, Zhao Tong has the final say; she is the decision-maker for big matters.

Xu Chong'an has no real power in family affairs, but he always loves to Jump out to offer opinions and show his presence, even if he is rejected time and time again, he never tires of it.

Clearly having no say in family affairs, but if no one asks for his opinion, he will still get angry.

At this moment, he said indifferently: "He's alright in all aspects."

After finishing, he didn't forget to add: "But his chess playing is truly rotten!"
