Unable to stand up to his coquettish attitude, he paused for a moment, brewed his emotions, and said slowly: "I forgot the first few days after we separated, I like to watch the heavy rain alone..."

Cheng Jialin in front of him spoke clearly, his eyes were affectionate, and the atmosphere was well rendered. Xiao Ran clutched his chest, tensed his face, restrained again and again, and finally couldn't hold back. When Cheng Jialin just sang the climax part, "Ha Haha" Laughing and leaning forward.

Cheng Jialin: "..."

"Haha..." Xiao Ran covered his stomach, and laughed heartlessly, "Cough...I really didn't mean it...haha...Cheng Jialin, so you are not an all-rounder..."

He really didn't do it on purpose, in fact, Cheng Jialin sang none of the lines in tune, and his reciting and reciting style of singing was really as funny as it could be.

"..." Cheng Jialin pursed his lips, looked at him silently, held back for a long time, and said: "I'm going to bed." After speaking, he got up and prepared to go to the bedroom.

His life is monotonous and his hobbies are single, which leads to his somewhat indifferent temperament. In addition, he doesn't like singing at all. When Xiao Ran asked him to sing, the only song he could think of was this song that was separated from him. During that time, "Exclusive Memories", which he has been repeating as a single, he consciously sang with all kinds of emotions at that time, but who would have thought that the song he sang to him with the sadness of the past was actually laughed at by him Already... He felt very wronged.

"I like you, it's my exclusive memory..."

Xiao Ran's affectionate singing came from behind, and Cheng Jialin stopped in his tracks. Xiao Ran's singing was more than a hundred times better than his. I didn't hear the bitterness at that time from his singing that sounded like the original...

He closed his eyes, waited for Xiao Ran to finish singing the song, then turned around and walked back in front of him, leaning on the sofa and knelt down, kissed his lips lightly, and said with a relieved smile, "Sweet."

Xiao Ran's heart trembled, and he understood what his two words without beginning and end meant. He leaned over and hugged Cheng Jialin tightly, turning his head to his neck and muttering: "Fool..."

Because the popularity of the company's games has greatly increased, and the company also has its own channel resources, the formation of the operation team is more difficult than the recruitment of other entrepreneurial companies, and all the personnel have been on duty within three weeks.

Lao Yang left a few people to continue to maintain the functions and updates of the old version, so he and Cheng Jialin and the others began to prepare for the second version of the game. Xiao Ran also returned to his old job, and began to recruit various game development talents for the company, support their new project.

At this point, everyone began to perform their duties again, working and living in an orderly manner, everything was on the right track, and everyone was able to live a good year without any worries this year.

But Cheng Jialin was just the opposite. He felt that his life this year was really full of worries.

It is said that the older a man is, the more valuable he is, but this "oldness" still has an age limit after all, just like the saying "establishment at thirty" recognized by everyone. When a man is pursuing "establishment" in his career, this " Thirty" is probably like the best childbearing age for women. It is a hurdle that makes many people easily want to compromise on the road to "marrying a family"-for example, you will become more and more unable to stand it The pressure your parents put on you in this regard.

However, the relationship between parents and children, putting aside those family ties and obligations, to put it simply, is probably switching back and forth between compromise and being compromised in different time periods...

When the child was still babbling, he got muddy every day, and the parents complained a few symbolically, and it was a matter of course to compromise-after all, he was still young and ignorant; when the child ran quickly Now that you are sensible, if you come back covered in mud, there will be a real storm, and this is the time for the child to compromise.When you are in school, no matter how much you don’t like going to school, your parents will not compromise with you, only you will compromise; when you graduate, your wings are hardened, and you want to change jobs every day, your parents will also open your eyes. I left you with one eye closed.

Well, before the age of 30, when your parents are nagging you to get a girlfriend every day, get married early and start a family and have children, you can easily dismiss your parents by saying that you should develop your career first; but once you pass the hurdle of 30, Those ambitions that you talk about starting a business first and then a family won't convince them anymore.

It sounds like a year has passed, but before the age of 30 and after the age of 30, there are two completely different mental states. This kaner is like a clear-cut river between Chu and Han, and you can only move forward with time. It’s time to go, and there is absolutely no way to retreat. Once you cross this line, it is as if you have stepped into the absolute domain of your parents. Any compromise will only have reasons and anxiety that you cannot refute, forcing you to start to compromise with them step by step.

And after completely changing your state of mind, you also begin to gradually discover that you are not only compromising with your parents, but also with yourself—it’s time to find someone who can live a life in a down-to-earth way. single.

Compared with those mothers who would ask their children to go on a blind date as soon as the new year, for fear that he would not be able to marry a wife, Cheng's mother still has more confidence in Cheng Jialin who has crossed the line. Regarding the object, I didn't force Cheng Jialin to go on a blind date, but asked about the situation of their company in a gentle and gentle manner, and then asked him calmly: "When will the matter of marriage be put on the agenda?"

With just this one sentence, Cheng Jialin knew that he could no longer use his career as an excuse to prevaricate her like he did two years ago... He also clearly realized that what he wanted to get married and start a family was far more important than he imagined in front of his parents. It's even more unspeakable.

Moreover, not only because of Cheng's mother's words, he also wanted to put the matter of getting married and starting a family on the agenda, at least let the family know that Xiao Ran existed, he thought so——because he I don't want to make do with the rest of my life.

But taking Xiao Ran home rashly now seems a bit too abrupt, just like the relationship between a man and a woman couple has developed to the point where they have to meet their parents. It is also the process where the man first goes to the woman's house to get the approval of the woman's parents. I feel that I should visit Xiao Ran's parents first.

So, after returning from the Spring Festival, Cheng Jialin took the initiative to tell Xiao Ran that he wanted to go back to his parents' house with him during the Lantern Festival.

At that time, when Xiao Ran first heard his proposal, he was so frightened that the game controller in his hand dropped on the carpet without even realizing it.

Cheng Jialin looked at Xiao Ran who was in a daze with his hair down, and didn't disturb him, just sat quietly waiting for his reply.

Since they dated for four years, Xiao Ran never mentioned anything about their future to him. He seemed to be subtly telling him that the current relationship between them was the best in his opinion, and there was no need for further development of.

He really thought so at the beginning, so he respected his opinion, and felt that it was good to be content with the status quo. After all, they didn't have to go to those places to take a picture, stamp a seal, and get a certificate that seemed to be legal enough to be particularly secure. Nor would there be a separation-like formal flow—until he accidentally bumped into Xiao Ran with his back turned to him and frantically closed a piece of news...

At that time, he didn't ask anything. Afterwards, when he saw the news about a certain couple announcing their engagement on Weibo from Xiao Ran's browsing history, and thought of the envy that could not be concealed in Xiao Ran's eyes at that time. Only then did he realize that maybe Xiao Ran didn't think that way, as for their relationship, he might want to have a further development than himself.

That's why he directly made such a request to Xiao Ran without asking Xiao Ran's opinion.And the urging of the family to marry was just an opportunity for this incident.

Sure enough, after being silent for a long time, Xiao Ran raised his head, with a vague smile, and said softly to Cheng Jialin, "Okay."

And his actions this time are not necessarily to force Xiao Ran to come out to his parents, he just wants to have a preliminary understanding of Xiao Ran's parents first, so that he can make a thorough preparation, hoping to minimize the damage. At the very least, resolve this matter satisfactorily in the most peaceful way.

Although this visit was not a meeting with the parents in the true sense, Cheng Jialin still felt a little nervous about meeting his father-in-law and mother-in-law for the first time.

Before setting off, Xiao Ran looked at Cheng Jialin who was going to the bathroom for the nth time to tidy up his appearance with some amusement, and only felt that there was an inexplicable emotion hidden in his heart, which made him feel particularly unreal.

Because Xiao Ran greeted his parents in advance, the old couple prepared a table of meals early, waiting for their arrival.

After meeting, Xiao's mother did not greet Cheng Jialin directly and enthusiastically like other parents' parents, but stood aside blankly, looking at Cheng Jialin calmly, but Xiao's father stepped forward politely to help Cheng Jialin share the burden in his hands. Big bags and small bags, greet them to enter the house quickly.

Xiao Ran was a step behind Cheng Jialin and Father Xiao, took Mother Xiao's hand from behind, patted the back of her hand lightly, and showed a reassuring smile.

Then he saw Mother Xiao's eye circles turn red instantly... He felt sore in his heart, opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

Afterwards, Xiao's mother showed a lot of enthusiasm for Cheng Jialin at the dinner table, adding vegetables and serving rice.

Cheng Jialin took the bowl in trepidation, and even
