Chapter 369

Early the next morning, Jiang Cheng immediately made preparations.

Upon hearing that he would go to meet his future mother-in-law today, Jiang Cheng's whole body tensed up.

Since last night, Jiang Cheng basically hasn't slept at all!

He tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep.

Today.

At the crack of dawn, Jiang Cheng got up.

While his breathing was hurried, as he shopped, he repeatedly tried to run away.

Su Manyao grabbed him and said: "Do you still remember what you told me before? And you clearly promised last night that you would absolutely not run away today—are you trying to go back on your word?"

Su Manyao just stared at him fixedly.

Jiang Cheng: "......"

After Su Manyao's words, Jiang Cheng, who had originally wanted to flee, forcibly swallowed his urge to escape!

He really didn't dare to run away.

After all

Jiang Cheng had indeed promised Su Manyao the night before; even if he woke up today and suddenly regretted his decision, he would still grit his teeth and go see his parents!

Words spoken are like spilled water.

Even if he truly wanted to back out now, it's already too late; aside from gritting his teeth and going, what other options does he have?

None!

Jiang Cheng forced a smile.

"If I had known it would be like this, I shouldn't have agreed last night..." Jiang Cheng's eyes glazed over; at this moment he looked utterly desperate.

In the past, no matter how big the situation, Jiang Cheng always handled it with ease.

When faced with those problems, Jiang Cheng didn't panic at all.

Only now does he look pitiful, on the verge of tears.

Seeing him like this, Su Manyao couldn't help but want to laugh.

He really finds it funny.

Usually, Jiang Cheng is very imposing.

When encountering matters, he is always calm and composed, never frightened away by them.

Moreover, Jiang Cheng is very capable.

But in this matter, Jiang Cheng feels right now that he is like a grasshopper on a rope, with the person before him issuing a final death order.

If he dares to act recklessly, then——

Su Manyao might get angry.

After realizing this, Jiang Cheng silently closed his mouth.

In front of Su Manyao, she gazed at Jiang Cheng with a resentful look.

Then.

Jiang Cheng felt helpless.

Unfortunately, he got caught up in this matter, and now he has no way out.

Having no choice, he let out another deep sigh.

"You're right; since I've already made a decision, I should follow through—how could I go back on my word at the last minute?" Jiang Cheng summoned his courage and stubbornly continued.

"Then let's go buy things now and quickly get everything ready!"

Jiang Cheng now feels as if he's been injected with chicken blood.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Cheng immediately spent several hundred thousand, purchasing a huge pile of gifts.

Su Manyao was still trying to stop him.

But Jiang Cheng kept buying, completely ignoring what Su Manyao said.

Then, the car was packed full. Su Peng had been waiting at home for quite a while.

Especially upon hearing that Jiang Cheng was finally going to meet his parents, he could say he was more nervous than anyone.

Well

He paced back and forth.

Su Fu watched his behavior, his brows slightly furrowed, his face looking somewhat displeased.

"You brat, what's going on? Isn't your relationship with him good? Since it's good, why do you look even more nervous than I am right now?"

Su Fu couldn't help but complain.

He was already quite nervous inside, even setting aside all his current affairs to focus solely on Jiang Cheng's matter.

The result——

Sitting here drinking tea, he kept looking outward.

He could originally calm down a bit, but due to his son's efforts, he is now completely tense.

!

He felt his breathing was in an extremely urgent state.

Su Fu couldn't help but chuckle.

"It's only natural for someone visiting us formally for the first time to be nervous, right?" Su Peng walked to his father's side and then reached out to pat his father's shoulders twice.

"If everything goes smoothly, just thinking that I'll have to call him brother-in-law someday makes me feel a pent-up excitement I can hardly contain!"

"I really want to give him a good beating!"

He actually fell for his own sister?

The key is, they two have actually been together for such a long time!

Just thinking about it, they used to be good brothers who bickered, but now——

In an instant, he became our own brother-in-law.

He couldn't help sighing, feeling the whole world pitch black!

"Worldly affairs are fickle—before, I could be as arrogant as I wanted, and discipline him however I pleased; but if he really becomes my brother-in-law, I'd have to speak to him respectfully. You say, is heaven deliberately messing with me?"

"Dad, I think your attitude toward him should be a bit worse; why can't you give him this chance? You should be a bit cold, then drive him away, and show that our family doesn't welcome his arrival at all!"

"By the way, don't let him come disgust us anymore from now on!"

Su Peng pondered for a moment.

He ran up to his father and said this solemnly.

His mother, hearing this, couldn't hold back, walked over and struck his head hard.

"What are you saying?" said Su Mu.

Hearing her son's remarks, as a mother she really wanted to beat him up!

Listen to what this guy is saying!

Su Manyao finding a man she likes is undoubtedly a good thing!

Even if he's a bit young, as long as the other is mature and steady, those aren't problems!

As a result, his precious son took the lead in organizing?

His head was struck hard, Su Peng felt very wronged.

"I'm not like this because I find Jiang Cheng displeasing to the eye, right?"

"What merit does he have to be with my sister? My sister, no matter what, is a schoolgirl; how many people rely on her? How many treat her like a fairy sister?"

"Besides, my sister's ability is well known. Her strength is unmatched, and she's already perfect to the point of flawlessness—look at Jiang Cheng, what is he?"

"What is he, some scallion?"

Su Peng, feeling wronged, complained bitterly.

He simply refuses to accept it!

Just thinking that Jiang Cheng would eventually become his brother-in-law, his heart collapsed instantly!

It's over!

He really doesn't want to call Jiang Cheng brother-in-law!

Although he doesn't want to, he knows that regardless of his willingness, he can only grit his teeth and agree.

Helpless.

He stood there, looking aggrieved.

Unaware, he saw that the time was approaching.

Jiang Cheng and Su Manyao only arrived late, leisurely.

And the family had already prepared delicious dishes. (End of chapter)
