Su Hao and Xu Lie spent a few days of leisurely vacation in North City. In addition to going to the cemetery to pay homage to Xu's mother, most of them took their little nephew and niece at home, or accompanied them to the Ocean Park to play, and also acted as a date.

Cheng Lang and Xu Qiao both praised their personality for being suitable for partnering with children.

One is rigorous and sensible, everything is organized, knows how to balance the overall situation, the other is lively and has a lot of fun and can liven up the atmosphere.

When Su Hao heard this, he wanted to say that it might be similar to talking crosstalk. Isn’t this the supporting actor and the funny actor?

The elders praised them a lot, and when they looked at the scene of the two raising their children, they naturally had associations.

Su Hao once heard Xu Qiao say to Cheng Lang in the kitchen: "Why do I think these two people are like parents, and there is no sense of incongruity at all. Do you think they are about to graduate, are they planning to start a career first and then start a family first and then start a career?"

Su Hao didn't hear Cheng Lang's answer. To be precise, he didn't dare to listen and ran away secretly.

Because she herself wasn't sure of the answer to this question.

In fact, in recent years, the stability of her relationship with Xu Lie is obvious to all the elders.

During the summer vacation of the freshman year, Su Hao told his family that he planned to move out of the school dormitory and shared a rent with Xu Lie, his parents were actually a little worried. They expressed their concerns to her in a vague way, thinking that the two were still young and living together was too hasty. If there was a conflict under the same roof in the future and they were in a foreign country, the one who suffered more losses would definitely be a girl.

But Su's father and mother Su have never spoken harshly to Su Hao. No matter how much the suggestions are, she did not force her to listen to them, so in the end Su Hao still lived with Xu Lie alone.

Facts have proved that no matter what Su’s father and mother were worried about, they lost and separated, and they did know how to cherish each other better, and it was not so easy to have conflicts.

Of course, the two of them would also quarrel, but they were both quarrels and had fun. After only half an hour of quarrel, someone bowed their heads. The most fierce quarrel in the past two and a half years was probably last summer vacation.

At that time, Xu Lie had to be intern and prepare for the exam for a professional certificate, so he was so busy that he didn't even have time to start a house. One weekend, Su Hao was going to the gallery, but he didn't bother him. He drove over by himself. As a result, when he was buying dinner on the way home, he encountered verbal sexual harassment from a greasy middle-aged man.

Because I often hear my friends in the gallery talk about the messy things in the art circle, Su Hao knew how to deal with such people. When he saw that the signs were wrong, he recorded the sound on the spot with his mobile phone and held it up to warn the other party that he wanted to call the police.

The other party was scared away, and Su Hao got on the car smoothly. After returning home, he saw Xu Lie taking a few bites of food and continuing to do the questions, but he didn't tell him about this.

Unexpectedly, I forgot to delete the recording on my phone, and then one day, Xu Lie accidentally heard this conversation.

Xu Lie asked her why she didn't tell him about such a big thing, but she thought it was just a small episode. Xu Lie got angry when she saw that she was careless and indifferent.

The two of them started to quarrel. As soon as they got up, she said nothing, saying whether he was worried about her being sexually harassed or mind that she was sexually harassed. After that, he grabbed the door and drove away.

Xu Lie was so angry that she didn't chase her out immediately. Two minutes late, and she and the car had long disappeared. Xu Lie didn't dare to call her while she was driving, for fear that she would be distracted, but she thought Xu Lie didn't want to come to her and was furious.

Later, I didn’t know how Xu Lie found her. Just like in the rainy alley in Nancheng Bar, she carried her on her shoulders and took her home. When she entered the house, she felt hysterical and nodded again.

Of course, it was her who was hysterical. Xu Lie lowered his head with explanation and finally made three rules with her - in the future, you should not run away from home, drive, and, if you are bullied, you should not tell him.

This was the most quarrel, and the two of them were just angry with their hair. No one mentioned the word "breakup" in recent years. Not to mention it, even this kind of thought has never arisen at once.

So now, the elders saw that the two of them were working together in advance, and seeing that they were about to graduate, it was not surprising that they found out what they planned in the future.

However, Su Hao and Xu Lie were used to long-lasting life and did not encounter the opportunity to break the status quo. Instead, they had already discussed their career plans after graduation, but they had never spread out to discuss the matter of getting married.

But Su Hao Guessed, and Xu Lie didn't say anything, it doesn't mean he didn't think about it.

Otherwise, she would have just sighed a few days ago, saying that she understood why Xu Qiao advised her to have a child later, and Xu Lie would not have explained her meaning so keenly.

In fact, Su Hao means that it is really early to have children, but he doesn’t have to make a three-year plan and five-year plan to get married.

For her, letting everything go naturally is the best. After graduation, the two returned to China together, and she didn't want to live separately from Xu Lie. Since they have developed this way, it would be legitimate to get a certificate to live together.

But if Xu Lie has a sense of mission and thinks that he must first stabilize his career and buy a car and a house before getting a certificate, Su Hao doesn't want to put too much pressure on him, and thinks it's okay to be a few years later.

Su Hao was thinking about when he would talk to Xu Lie about this, but he received news from Xu Lie.

Xu Lie said that Xu's father would return to Beicheng from Southeast Asia on New Year's Day and wanted to meet her parents for a meal.

In the past two years, parents on both sides have met each other and are quite familiar with the two children, but they have not officially sat down and had a long talk. After all, it was not sure whether Su Hao and Xu Lie would develop a result at that time, and they did not want to put too early pressure on the child.

Now, although Xu Lie said that he was just having a meal and chatting, Su Hao guessed that this nature is probably the same as seeing parents.

Su Hao and his parents conveyed the invitation from the Xu family. Zou Yueling and Su Wenbin agreed that the time was good and happily agreed.

*

The night before New Year's Day, Su Hao and his parents went to a high-end and elegant Chinese restaurant in Beicheng District for an appointment.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but the private room for this family banquet was called "Flower and Full Moon". Su Hao didn’t know what to say in his mind. When he looked up, he suddenly felt that the name of the private room was about to be settled. When he walked into the private room, he became cowardly and his feet were a little sluggish.

Four people came from the Xu family, including Xu Lie. In addition to Xu’s father, Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang also attended the family banquet.

When the Su family entered the door, they saw that they were all waiting in the table and apologized and said they were late.

The four of them stood up together.

Xu Kangrong waved his hand quickly: "Where is where we arrived early."

Xu Lie nodded and called out "Hello uncle and aunt".

Su Hao wanted to say that everyone is not so polite in normal times. When the overly polite atmosphere is affected, the whole person becomes even more unnatural. When he greets uncle, sister and brother-in-law, the corners of his mouth are twitching slightly.

Cheng Lang smiled and eased the atmosphere: "Dad, don't be too polite, look at the younger generation's nervousness."

Xu Kangrong immediately reacted: "Yes, yes, it's just that the New Year is here to have a meal together, nothing important," he turned to look at Su Hao, "It's like when my uncle saw you last year, I looked beautiful again, but why do I seem to have lost weight? Are we hungry in the United States?"

"No," Su Hao shook his head while taking off his coat, "We don't have enough food. I think I'm lazy and fattening this winter, and I'm controlling my appetite recently."

Xu Lie smiled and looked at her, took the initiative to pull open the seat next to him for her, took her coat and hung it off the coat rack.

Both families left their seats.

Xu Kangrong looked at Su Hao and said, "What kind of food should I control? Isn't it good to have a fat girl?"

"Dad, what kind of terrifying curse is Baibai and Pangpang!" Xu Qiao looked at Xu Kangrong sideways, "If you don't understand, please stop talking nonsense if you don't understand us girls!"

Both families laughed out loud.

The atmosphere became relaxed, and the waiters started serving hot dishes. After everyone greeted each other around the round table, Xu Kangrong greeted the Su family to eat the dishes and said to chat while eating.

Xu Lie was able to whisper to Su Hao, and turned his head to ask her: "Why did you come here? Is it cold on the road?"

"My dad drove, what's cold in the car?"

"Look at your ears when you enter the door." Xu Lie spread his hands at her, "I'll touch it."

Su Hao also forgot the occasion and handed over habitually.

Xu Lie pinched her hand, felt that the warmth was still good, so he let her go and brought the porcelain cup with hot tea on the table to her.

The two of them finished doing this as if no one else, and suddenly realized that the dining table was a little too quiet. When they raised their eyes, they found that five pairs of eyes were watching them. When they looked up, they moved away as if nothing had happened.

Xu Kangrong asked Zou Yueling and Su Wenbin whether their business was going well recently.

Xu Qiao stretched out his hand at Cheng Lang: "Touch me too."

Cheng Lang smiled and pinched her fingers.

Su Hao drank a bite of hot tea, picked up the chopsticks to eat the dishes, looked around the dining table, and saw that they were all commonly found in Nancheng, including many fish, shrimp, seafood, and some Cantonese-style dim sum.

The round dining table slowly rotated, and Su Hao picked up a salted shrimp into the bowl.

Xu Lie also picked up one, slowly peeled it, but put it in her bowl, and then picked out the shrimp that she had not yet peeled.

When Su Hao was free, he went to pick up food for Xu Lie.

The three elders on the opposite side were talking about business affairs, and their eyes were quietly glancing at the two of them. In the words of the young man, they were full of "aunt smiles" on their faces.

After eating the food, Xu Kangrong asked Su Hao: "Okay, uncle said, don't you plan to continue studying for graduate school for the time being. After graduation, you want to come to Beicheng to develop?"

Su Hao swallowed the dish in his mouth and nodded: "I don't like academic research, but I still like practice. Painting and curating are suitable for me. Anyway, my parents are also in Beicheng, and Beicheng has rich resources. It's good to stay here, but you may need to fly to Europe from time to time in the future, and you will have short-term further study or work."

"Now the transportation is well connected, and it is convenient to go to Europe," Xu Kangrong pointed to Cheng Lang. "Your brother-in-law has lived in the UK for more than ten years and has many connections there. In the future, whenever you go there, I will say to your brother-in-law to help you. Don't be embarrassed. Can you young people do your career and achieve success? You really have to work hard on your own, but as long as your strength is worthy of the open doors at home for you, what's so shameful? If you have resources, you need to use them. Isn't it stupid to not use them?"

Su Hao knew that Xu Kangrong was not only saying this to her, but also taking the opportunity to say it to Xu Lie, hoping that Xu Lie would not be too stubborn.

So Su Hao pulled Xu Lie and expressed his opinion, holding his arm and said, "Uncle, don't worry, we will do it."

Xu Lie nodded.

The topic naturally transitioned to Xu Lie.

Zou Yueling asked, "How do you plan to develop when Xiao Lie returns to North City? If you want to continue studying, you don't have to worry about us."

Xu Lie shook his head: "I plan to start a business in Beicheng after graduation."

Cheng Lang smiled and explained to him: "Studying is a lifelong thing. As long as you are motivated, you will also learn in the workplace. Starting your own business without sticking to academic qualifications. It is also a good choice to accumulate practical experience first. Then you can still study for a master's degree while working."

Su Wenbin nodded in agreement: "The two children are very thoughtful people, they are very good, so they all come according to your own wishes. We parents will definitely support you with all our strength. But starting from scratch is inevitable. In the future, it is inevitable that Xiao Lie will take good care of her, but she will also take good care of her. Do you know?"

Su Hao heard that the dining table was always "in the future", and both families agreed that they had made their case.

Perhaps because he thought that he would make a decision with Xu Lie soon, Su Hao suddenly felt a little excited, and that sense of mission suddenly surged.

"Can you not take care of me?" Su Hao patted Xu Lie's back, "Don't worry, Xiao Lie, Sister Su will always be with you!"

Everyone was amused and laughed out loud.
