#251 - Chapter 251: That kid, don’t run! Catch him in the act and have him tried by three judges!
Xia Xiangyang and Zhong Ping were both in the first-floor dining room.
Xia Qingyan was also there.
The company was already on holiday, tomorrow was New Year's Eve…
No!
This year, the New Year was on the twenty-ninth.
In short, she had been staying at home recently, enjoying a rare moment of leisure, except for occasionally answering a few phone calls.
Seeing her youngest daughter come downstairs, Zhong Ping looked bewildered: "Qingmo…"
"Mom, I'm going out for a bit."
Xia Qingmo ran out of the house in the blink of an eye.
"What's the matter? So rushed," Xia Xiangyang asked, puzzled.
"Could it be…"
Zhong Ping's eyes lit up: "Let's go! Let's go and see!"
"Hey…"
Xia Qingyan was immediately startled: "Qingmo is just dating, why are you joining in the fun? Don't scare her little boyfriend!"
Once Chen Hao's identity is exposed, with her sister's personality, she might completely distance herself from him.
She was very satisfied with this brother-in-law.
She didn't want anything to go wrong.
"What?"
Zhong Ping glanced at her eldest daughter: "You're not jealous, are you?"
"Jealous? What would I be jealous of?"
"Don't think I don't know, you like your sister's boyfriend."
"What?!"
Xia Qingyan almost exploded.
What kind of drama was her mother imagining?
Had she been watching too much TV and hallucinating?
Although there was such a plot on TV, this was modern society.
As a mother-in-law, she couldn't accept it.
"Mom!"
Xia Qingyan was about to be driven crazy, she waved her hand weakly: "Fine! Go and see, okay? You better ask him directly if there's anything between us, or… can you please stop watching TV?"
Originally, she didn't want her mother to get involved in Chen Hao and her sister's relationship.
But now…
Chen Hao needed to clarify!
She didn't want to be labeled as someone who steals her sister's boyfriend.
So, Zhong Ping followed sneakily, with Xia Xiangyang following behind.
Xia Qingyan was at the very back, looking utterly hopeless.
Chen Hao.
It's not that I'm not keeping my promise.
I wanted to cover for you, but I don't want to be misunderstood!
…
Outside the residential gate.
A hot air balloon was suspended in mid-air, tied to a utility pole with nylon ropes to prevent it from flying away.
Shi Dali was in the gondola, cracking sunflower seeds, and would be responsible for controlling the hot air balloon later.
Xiang Yan was disguised as a toll collector.
Chen Hao was in a great mood.
He could tell last time that his wife really liked riding in a hot air balloon, but that time they only watched fireworks and floated in that area of the sky.
This time!
He wanted to take his wife to fly all over Jing'an District!
Before long.
Xia Qingmo ran over from afar.
When she saw the hot air balloon, her beautiful face was filled with surprise and joy.
Actually…
The happiness wasn't because of the hot air balloon.
But because of him!
Being with him, no matter what they did, it would be especially happy.
"Chen Hao…" She was excited.
It had been two months since she last saw him!
"Qing…"
Instantly!
Before he could call out his wife's name, Chen Hao was completely dumbfounded.
Because…
There were three people following behind his wife!
"Wow! It's a hot air balloon… how romantic!" Zhong Ping's eyes were full of stars.
"Mom?!"
Hearing the shout, Xia Qingmo was startled.
She was focused on meeting Chen Hao and didn't notice anyone following her sneakily from behind.
"Romantic my foot!"
Xia Xiangyang was very angry: "Do you know how dangerous this is?"
"Dangerous?"
Zhong Ping curled her lip and hummed: "When you were chasing after me, wasn't climbing over the wall dangerous?"
"You…"
Seeing that he couldn't reason with his wife, he looked past his stunned daughter and shouted at Chen Hao: "Hey kid, don't run!"
"Taking my daughter to do such a dangerous thing!"
"I won't let you off today unless you explain yourself clearly!"
Damn!
Chen Hao was scared witless on the spot.
What the heck!
The father-in-law, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law were all here.
Having the memories of his previous life, he knew his father-in-law very well, this person always acted cautiously.
Taking his wife to ride in a hot air balloon, in the eyes of his father-in-law…
Unacceptable!
The key was…
He couldn't run!
If he ran away today, he would definitely be guarded against by his father-in-law like a thief in the future—how would he develop his relationship with his wife in the future?
"Uncle, I'm not running!"
An idea struck him: "You've misunderstood, I didn't want to take Qingmo to ride in a hot air balloon, actually… I was letting the balloon go for her to watch."
Letting the balloon go?
What did that mean?
Just as Xia Xiangyang was puzzled, Chen Hao winked at Xiang Yan and lowered his voice: "Knife."
"Oh…"
Xiang Yan handed over a dagger.
Pfft!
Chen Hao didn't hesitate to cut the rope.
The next moment, the hot air balloon rose rapidly.
Shi Dali was sitting in the gondola, and was stunned when he noticed the balloon rising, then straightened up.
"Damn!"
He was dumbfounded on the spot, and shouted: "You haven't come up yet… No! I haven't gone down yet!"
"Qingmo, is the balloon pretty?" Chen Hao threw the dagger on the side of the road.
"…"
Xia Qingmo stared blankly at him.
At this time.
Xia Xiangyang and Zhong Ping ran over.
…
Villa living room.
Chen Hao's handsome face was almost frozen from smiling.
"Hello, Uncle!"
"Hello, Auntie!"
"Sister-in-law… No! Hello, Sister Xia!"
Since he was reborn, he had never smiled so ingratiatingly at others as he did today.
"Sister Xia?"
Zhong Ping looked him up and down: "I won't say anything else, you have to give me a straight answer—do you like Qingyan or Qingmo?"
What?!
Chen Hao was stunned.
The two sisters were also stunned.
"Mom!"
Xia Qingmo looked bewildered: "Are you misunderstanding something?"
"Mom! What on earth are you talking nonsense about?!" Xia Qingyan was furious.
"Mom…"
Chen Hao followed suit.
He immediately realized something was wrong: "Auntie, I've been dating Qingmo from beginning to end, okay?"
"There's really nothing between you two?" Zhong Ping looked very surprised.
"What could there be between us?!"
Xia Qingyan almost collapsed: "You watch TV all day, you've become obsessed!"
"Alright, alright!"
Xia Xiangyang waved his hand, his gaze locked on Chen Hao: "What's your name?"
"Chen Hao."
"How many people are in your family?"
"Three."
Before Xia Xiangyang could ask further, Chen Hao blurted out: "I have three uncles, one aunt, two aunts, one uncle, my grandparents are in the countryside, my parents run an appliance franchise, I…"
"Who asked you about these things?!" Xia Xiangyang was very annoyed.
"Then you ask."
"Do you think you're worthy of Qingmo?"
Xia Xiangyang subconsciously raised his head.
He had always felt that his daughter was excellent, and now she was even more outstanding.
Pfft!
Xia Qingyan burst out laughing.
Do you know how Qingmo became a shareholder in the largest pharmaceutical company?
Do you know where my 28 billion yuan dividend came from?
"What are you laughing at?" Xia Xiangyang was stunned.
"Nothing…"
"Dad!"
Xia Qingmo suddenly spoke: "There's no such thing as being worthy or unworthy! Moreover, I've already made up my mind about him, no one can stop me!"
What?!
This time, the couple was stunned.
Their youngest daughter had always been a good girl, and always listened to her parents.
For the first time!
This was the first time she had refuted her parents, showing an unprecedented firmness!
