Qiao Yue and Li Qian came out of their cousin's house and went to a nearby shopping mall for a meal.

In the afternoon, Qiao Yue hurried back to school for class.

It wasn't until evening that I got home.

As soon as she walked into the living room, she saw Ji Beichen sitting on the sofa.

It was rare for him to come home from get off work so early.

Qiao Yue: "Why are you so early today?"

Ji Beichen fiddled with his laptop, "I've been on a business trip for a few days. The plane just landed and I haven't returned to the company."

Qiao Yue asked, "Are you on a business trip?"

Ji Beichen raised his eyes and looked at her in disbelief, "I haven't been home for the past few days, don't you know?"

"I didn't pay attention, and you didn't tell me..." Qiao Yue felt that it was normal for the two of them to be busy with their own things every day.

Ji Beichen: "..."

He was also convinced. Living under the same roof, her husband disappeared for several days, and Qiao Yue was not aware of it.

Qiao Yue saw that his face became cold again, and quickly changed the subject, "Have you had dinner? I plan to cook, let's eat together."

Ji Beichen said leisurely, "Tell me what dishes you want to cook? I'll think about whether to eat it or not."

"Do whatever you want," Qiao Yue was not used to him, "You can eat whatever I do."

Then he turned and entered the kitchen.

Ji Beichen looked at her back: "Am I a little too tempered recently..."

After saying that, he continued to hold the computer and devoted himself to his work.

Qiao Yue dug around in the refrigerator and found that there were quite a lot of ingredients.

Ji Beichen must have told Xiao Lin to replenish the refrigerator frequently.

Qiao Yue fried some pasta, fried two steaks, and then simply mixed a fruit salad.

Within an hour, the two of them sat down to eat.

It has to be said that Qiao Yue's cooking skills are very good. Ji Beichen ate several meals she cooked and could hardly find fault with them.

Ji Beichen said while cutting the steak, "I'll ask Xiao Lin to hire an aunt to cook tomorrow. You don't have to waste time cooking every day."

Although he is picky about food, he feels that cooking is a waste of time and hard work.

Qiao Yue took a sip of water and refused, "No, I don't do it every day."

Ji Beichen frowned, "You're not even willing to cook for you?"

Qiao Yue explained, "It's not necessary. I eat very simply, and you don't often eat at home. If Auntie makes too much, it will be a waste."

Ji Beichen took a bite of the steak and thought it was quite delicious, "Then it's up to you."

Qiao Yue: "I think cooking is also a very healing activity. It allows you to focus on this one thing wholeheartedly and calm your mind."

"This is the first time I've heard this."

Qiao Yue smiled, "But I don't cook often. I cook it when I'm in a good mood. If I don't want to do it, I won't force myself."

Ji Beichen nodded, "It's up to you. If you need anything, come back to Xiao Lin."

The two of them ate quietly for a while. Ji Beichen suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "I almost forgot. I have something to tell you."

"what?"

Ji Beichen: "My parents are back from abroad. Today's flight should have arrived by now."

Qiao Yue: "Oh..."

Ji Beichen: "Tomorrow, you come home with me for dinner."

Qiao Yue: "Huh?"

Ji Beichen glanced at her, "As for such a big reaction?"

Qiao Yue was a little worried, "It's so sudden. When will it be tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow night. I'm not free at noon. I'll pick you up from school then."

Qiao Yue silently agreed, "Okay..."

She lowered her head and ate her salad, looking absent-minded.

Ji Beichen asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Qiao Yue picked up the water glass and drank some water, "I'm a little scared..."

"What are you afraid of?" Ji Beichen was confused.

"After all, it's my first time meeting my parents-in-law, so I'm bound to be nervous."

"Don't be afraid, an ugly daughter-in-law will always meet her parents-in-law," Ji Beichen said with a smile.

When Qiao Yue heard this, she was about to refute, but Ji Beichen added, "Besides, you're not ugly."

Only then did she retract her urge to beat him.

"You don't know, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most delicate and difficult relationship in the world..."

Qiao Yue told Ji Beichen what she saw at her cousin's house this morning, and described to him the horrific behavior of her cousin's evil mother-in-law.

After Ji Beichen listened, he directly gave his evaluation.

"They don't treat your cousin as a human being, right? It feels like all the nannies in our family have a better life than her."

Qiao Yue nodded in agreement, "What you said is really... to the point..."

Qiao Yue feels that her cousin is now at her husband's house. To put it nicely, she looks like a mascot. In fact, she is simply a nanny and fertility machine for Wang Yifei's family.

You can't go to work, you have to take care of all the family members, you have to do housework, you have to have a baby, and it has to be a boy.

Ji Beichen looked at her and said, "Are you afraid that our family will be like theirs and treat you like this? If you think so, you are insulting our family."

"I didn't! I definitely know that your family won't be like that," Qiao Yue quickly explained, "Objectively speaking, your character is much better than that of Wang Yifei."

Ji Beichen raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Only character?"

Qiao Yue immediately said: "I will beat you in every aspect."

"Well, indeed." Ji Beichen shrugged proudly.

Qiao Yue bit into a piece of steak and sighed, "I have no experience meeting my parents-in-law, so I will definitely be nervous. After all, we are still strangers."

"That's true, but I don't have any requirements for you. Just be polite and decent. They won't stay in the country for a long time." Ji Beichen said.

"And, for the sake of this meal, I will help you if anything goes wrong."

"Really?" Qiao Yue was surprised.

Ji Beichen: "After all, eating people is soft-spoken."

"Then eat more!" Qiao Yue immediately cut a piece of steak from her plate and gave it to him.

Qiao Yue looked at him and suddenly felt that Ji Beichen was much more pleasing to the eye now.

In family relationships, supporting your wife is the attitude a husband should have.

Rather than blindly helping his mother bully his wife like Wang Yifei.

Even though Qiao Yue and Ji Beichen were not a real couple, she was still quite touched by his attitude.

They have no relationship at the moment, but he is a good man and very loyal.

But since you have to face the strong wind, you must be prepared.

Qiao Yue asked him, "What kind of person is your mother? Is it difficult to get along with her?"

Ji Beichen said casually, "I definitely think my mother is not difficult to get along with. I don't know about my mother and you."

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Qiao Yue said resentfully.

Ji Beichen looked at her coldly, "Isn't what you asked also nonsense?"

Qiao Yue: "..."

"It's useless to think so much. We'll find out tomorrow." After Ji Beichen finished eating, he took a tissue and wiped his mouth gracefully.

Then he went to the sofa and picked up the computer.
