Rebirth on the Doors to the Civil Affairs Bureau

“You…”

“Don’t seduce me, or we’ll miss my mother-in-law’s dinner.” Xia Feng sat back and continued to eat his breakfast.

Yu Dong felt like she had just lost something, lost to this cheeky man opposite of her. Cough…when did this man become so shameless?

…..

Yu Dong’s hometown was in the middle of Jiangxi Province. It would usually take 10 hours by train, but because there weren’t any buses that went to Yu Dong’s village, they would have to get off the train and board several buses.

Yu Dong proposed that they drive instead- if they take the highway, they’ll arrive at around the same time as the alternative and they could even pack things to bring along. More importantly, if he was kicked out by Yu Dong’s mother, Xia Feng had a means of transportation to go to the city and find a hotel.

“Are you sure your mother won’t like me?” As he drove, Xia Feng asked Yu Dong.

“It’s pretty hard to say right now.” Yu Dong thought back; if this were 10 years, no, 5 years in the future my mom would definitely meet you with beating gongs, drums, and firecrackers.

“You can be rest assured, no matter what father-in-law and mother-in-law do, I won’t leave you.” Xia Feng said.

“Don’t you dare!” Xia Feng smiled at this retort, glancing at Yu Dong’s ring finger with warm eyes.

…..

Lu Jia, at 7:00 p.m.

Since 6:00 p.m. Mother Yu and Father Yu had been asking Yu Song when Yu Dong would arrive in 10-minute intervals.

Poor Yu Song had no choice but to bombard Yu Dong with texts every 10 minutes. In his heart he complained: He knew that they were still an hour out, don’t force me to make a fuss every few minutes.

“Mom the food’s getting a little cold, you should go heat it up so when Dong Dong eats it’ll be warm and delicious.” His mother was so restless, Yu Song could only suggest this.

“What eating? Leaving home and eloping, who wants to feed that child.” Mother Yu growled.

“Yes, yes.” Yu Song mentally rolled his eyes, their mother would ask for Yu Dong every week ah, and hearing that Yu Dong would bring her boyfriend back his mother actually wore clothes that she hadn’t brought out in two years.

His mother continued to nag, but she still took the food back into the kitchen to warm them again.

“How’s Dong Dong’s boyfriend? What did she say to you?” When Father Yu saw that Mother Yu had left, he grabbed his son and whispered.

“Dad, I don’t know anything. You said that men shouldn’t care too much about their sister’s love life.” Yu Song replied.

“Then what are you good for?” Father Yu sat back down in disapproval.

Yu Song felt like a fish affected by its pond’s turbulent condition. God, help me overcome this trying time!!!

At this time, headlights could be seen through the window, illuminating the courtyard. All three people practically raced to the door. Yu Song looked at the car’s license plate and shouted: “They’re here, that’s a Shanghai license plate.”

Father and Mother Yu were gleeful, before catching themselves and each person calmly went back to the living room and kitchen respectively.

Yu Song was speechless at their actions. The corners of his mouth twitched, what’s with that, they ran faster than I did.
