The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

August 8, 8:11 am, in a staff building of the China Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

Jian Lan stared in amazement at the young couple who were standing at the door carrying their things, like strangers in the wall, and was speechless for a moment.

Although the facial features of this person in front of me haven't changed, is she really her daughter who has suffered from inferiority and sensitivity since childhood because of her chubby figure?

And how come she... lost so much weight? And became so much prettier?

"Mom?"

"Mom???"

"Mom!"

Xu Yiyu stretched out his hand and waved in front of Jian Lan's eyes, gradually increasing the volume of his voice and calling Jian Lan.

The light in her unfocused eyes finally came back. Jian Lan blinked and saw Xu Yiyu, who seemed like a different person, looking at her with worry on her face. She finally felt a little more realistic about her change.

"Come in quickly, don't stand at the door!"

Jian Lan pulled her daughter and future son-in-law into the house, one in each hand.

"You two have changed so much... At first glance I thought someone knocked on the wrong door."

After pulling Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi into the house, Jian Lan finally noticed the changes in her future son-in-law, and she was even more surprised.

These two children, conservatively estimated, must have lost dozens of pounds...

It's only been half a year since we last saw each other. Won't it hurt their bodies if they lose weight so quickly?

Seeing her mother's irrepressible curiosity, Xu Yiyu smiled calmly, pushed the somewhat embarrassed Lu Sanshi to sit on a round stool, and then coquettishly took Jian Lan's arm.

"Mom, are you surprised?" Xu Yiyu clung to Jian Lan like she did when they were little and refused to let go. "Has your baby daughter become much prettier?"

Faced with her daughter's shameless and coquettish offensive, Jian Lan smiled dotingly and pushed Xu Yiyu's head that was resting on her shoulder without much effort.

"You girl! It's only been half a year since we last met, how come you've lost so much weight?"

Jian Lan, who studied medicine, suddenly thought of a terrible possibility regarding the two people's sudden weight loss, and his expression immediately became serious.

"Tell me the truth, did you two take any harmful weight loss pills? There are many things you can't touch..."

Seeing that her mother was about to start chattering, Xu Yiyu interrupted her immediately.

"Of course not, mom! Is your daughter such a fool?" Xu Yiyu quickly picked up the point and refuted. "It's just that Xiao Lu and I have been exercising a lot during this period, and our diet is relatively light, so she looks a lot thinner."

Xu Yiyu forcefully pushed Jian Lan to sit on the wooden chair beside the table, then he squatted down and looked up at Jian Lan, semi-forcing Jian Lan to calm down.

Jian Lan's excitement calmed down a little. She looked down at Xu Yiyu's sincere eyes with doubt: "Really? You didn't lie to me?"

"My dear mother, this is not something that no one knows about. There is no need for me to lie to you."

Xu Yiyu apologized to Jian Lan in his heart, but his expression seemed a little awkward.

"Didn't you always say that you hoped I could lose weight? Why are you doubting me now that I've really lost weight?"

"Auntie, Yiyu and I have really been working hard to exercise and adjust our diets over the past six months. I can vouch for her."

Lu Sanshi knew that the existence of the Chosen System must not be told to his future mother-in-law. After weighing the pros and cons, he echoed his baby's words with a very sincere tone.

The sincere looks of Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi did not seem fake. Jian Lan stared at their eyes for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.

"Huh...you two almost scared me to death."

Jian Lan gently stroked her chest.

"I saw a news report a few days ago about a girl who died from an overdose of diet pills. Fortunately, you didn't follow in her footsteps."

Seeing that his mother's face looked relieved, Xu Yiyu realized that he had barely passed this hurdle, and quickly resumed his previous playful expression.

"Don't worry, mom. We will definitely take care of our health first." Xu Yiyu patted Jian Lan's hands in comfort. "Let's not talk about this for now. I'm almost starving because I didn't have breakfast today. Mom, what did you prepare for us? I'm going to the kitchen to steal a few bites first."

Seeing Xu Yiyu's mischievous look, Jian Lan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"You little foodie! Aren't you afraid of gaining weight now?" Jian Lan scratched her daughter's nose and scolded her with a smile. "You two go to the master bedroom and watch TV for a while. I still have two dishes to cook. I'll call you to eat when they're ready."

Because Zhan Wei's house is an old residential building, each room is small, with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen, one bathroom, and a very small balcony. The total area is less than 50 square meters.

So in this house, the bedroom takes on a large part of the living room's function of entertaining guests. Sometimes when there are many guests, Zhan Wei and Jian Lan will move the small table in the living room to the bedroom and eat in a slightly larger space next to the closet.

Seeing that his future mother-in-law was about to get up and go to the kitchen, Lu Sanshi was very tactful and ran to the kitchen first.

"Auntie, let me help you." Lu Sanshi took off the apron and tied it on, then washed his hands carefully. "Just tell me what to do, and don't use the knife, it's too dangerous."

Although Jian Lan was not too satisfied with her future son-in-law before, she had to admit that he was indeed very sensible and hardworking.

She pushed Xu Yiyu to the master bedroom to watch TV, then returned to the kitchen. She saw Lu Sanshi, a 1-meter-tall man from Shandong Province, wearing a cute cat apron, and she almost laughed out loud.

His daughter's vision was right this time. After losing weight, Lu Sanshi looked quite pleasing to the eye and well-proportioned. Not only was she sensible, but she was also thoughtful and had a lively look in her eyes.

It seems that I had made the mistake of judging people by their appearance before, causing this child to suffer injustice.

Xu Yiyu peeked his head out from the bedroom door stealthily, and after looking at Lu Sanshi and his mother who were getting along quite harmoniously in the kitchen for a while, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Her boyfriend is such a smart guy. Judging from her mother's expression, his nose is not a nose and his eyes are not eyes today, so she feels relieved.

Knowing that he had nothing to do now, Xu Yiyu tiptoed to the table in the living room and grabbed a handful of melon seeds, then crouched back to the bedroom, took a small stool from the closet and sat down, and finally turned on the wall-mounted TV which was in the dark.

Xu Yiyu looked carefully: Eh? It's a replay of the Poetry Competition.

Zhan Wei really loves watching this program on Channel 1 for many years. It was like this during the time when Xu Yiyu was staying here. He didn't expect that even after she returned to Lucheng for several years, his preference has not changed.

The program was now at the stage of the flying flower order. Xu Yiyu grabbed a few melon seeds and put them in his mouth, then watched with great interest.

To be honest, although she really doesn't like getting along with Zhan Wei, this show...

She really likes watching it.
