Chapter 133 Meeting the Parents Tomorrow
Seeing that Ye Lan had agreed, Ning Caicai was overjoyed.
But at the same time, I also had some worries.
She wasn't sure if her parents would accept Ye Lan's job.
What should I do if they don't accept it?
Should they side with Ye Lan, their parents, or remain silent and observe...?
While Ning Caicai was struggling with her thoughts, Ye Lan had already finished all the food in her bowl.
He put down his chopsticks and took out a tissue to wipe the grease from his mouth.
“We’ll go to the mall tomorrow to buy some things for your parents, and I’ll drive to your house the day after tomorrow to settle this matter as soon as possible.”
"The day after tomorrow, so soon?" Ning Caicai's mouth gaped open in surprise.
"It just so happens that the day after tomorrow is Saturday. The sooner this matter is resolved, the better, so that we can both feel at ease sooner."
Ye Lan didn't want to drag this out any longer and was prepared to act decisively.
The sooner we resolve this, the sooner we can claim the skin.
"Okay, I'll go call my parents."
"Okay, you go ahead, I'm going to do my live stream too."
Ye Lan spent the entire day at school watching the students participate in various sports activities.
That's equivalent to not having a live stream all day.
Now that I have time, of course I have to work.
The two went about their own business.
According to the contract, Ye Lan is required to stream for 100 hours per month.
In reality, Ye Lan only needs to stream for three hours a day.
However, Ye Lan's popularity is currently too high. The longer she streams, the more her bank account balance will increase.
So, for the sake of money, Ye Lan still chose to work overtime.
I worked from 8 a.m. until midnight.
The moment the peak tournament ended, Ye Lan turned off her computer, went offline, and took a shower.
After getting her change of clothes, Ye Lan noticed a sticky note left by Ning Caicai when she arrived at the bathroom door.
"My parents agreed, let's go shopping tomorrow."
Ye Lan tore off the sticky note, went to the coffee table, and took out a ballpoint pen from the cabinet.
He wrote it on a sticky note:
"I'll lend you the money to buy things first, remember to pay me back after you get your salary."
Their relationship was fake from the start, so Ye Lan had no reason to be taken advantage of.
After writing it, Ye Lan posted the note on Ning Caicai's door.
Because Ye Lan often streams until late at night, there is a slight time difference between the two.
Ning Caicai would then use sticky notes to remind Ye Lan.
For example, the things to do today, the food in the pot, the laundry that needs to be put away, and so on.
That's the charm of writing letters; Ye Lan discovered that reading notes and chatting on a mobile phone are completely different experiences.
After taking a shower, Ye Lan dried her hair and went to bed.
Perhaps because I was too tired during the day, I slept very soundly and didn't fall asleep until noon the next day.
When Ye Lan woke up, she discovered that a strong wind was blowing outside.
I reckon it's going to go down again.
Ning Caicai knew that Ye Lan would sleep until noon.
So I discussed it with the other teachers early on and moved all the afternoon classes to the morning. Now I'm just getting home.
Seeing Ye Lan in her pajamas, with her hair all messy, sleepy-eyed, and seemingly detached from the three realms, Ning Caicai couldn't help but laugh:
"You're so lazy, you didn't get up until noon."
Ye Lan took a breath of fresh air, trying to shake off the drowsiness from her mind.
"You have no right to say that to me. I'm not the kind of person who stays up all night watching dramas and then sleeps until the afternoon during weekends."
"We're both equally bad."
“It’s different. I stay up late because of work, while you stay up late for entertainment. A person who can’t even control their desires is undoubtedly a waste.”
“You…” Ning Caicai felt Ye Lan’s words like cold, icy rain slapping against her face.
"Alright, stop babbling. I'm going to the bathroom to wash my face, then we'll head out."
Still feeling groggy from just waking up, Ye Lan didn't want to argue too much.
After washing up, Ye Lan put on her coat, picked up the car keys from the table, and went to the underground parking garage.
Unlock, open the door, and get into the driver's seat.
Just then, Ning Caicai discovered that the passenger door could not be opened again.
She stomped her feet in anger, "Ye Lan, what exactly do you mean?"
"I've already said, the passenger seat is for my girlfriend only."
"Wasn't I sitting in the passenger seat yesterday?"
"Yes, we were pretending to be a couple yesterday, so I made an exception and let you sit in the passenger seat. Now that the trial period is over, you should go and stay in the back seat."
"Ye Lan, you're ruthless. I'll put arsenic in your food another day and poison you to death."
Ning Caicai gritted her teeth and opened the back door of the car, her two little fists clenched tightly, trembling with anger.
"In that case, I'll have no choice but to use you as a test subject for poison every day."
With a smile on her face, Ye Lan stepped on the gas and drove the car away.
After driving to a shopping mall, Ning Caicai began issuing tasks.
"My dad likes to drink green tea and smoke Zhonghua cigarettes. Why don't you go over there and choose one?"
"It's getting cold lately, I'm going to pick out a down jacket for my mom."
Ye Lan nodded upon hearing this: "Okay, I understand."
The two then split up and began to act separately.
Ning Caicai had just arrived at the women's clothing section and hadn't even picked out two items when Ye Lan came running over with a shopping cart.
"Look, I bought Zhonghua tea and green tea."
Ning Caicai looked at the items in her shopping cart, her lips twitching involuntarily.
"Can you stop playing dumb? Do you think plum green tea and Zhonghua toothpaste are a match?"
"How could a heavy smoker like you not know what Zhonghua cigarettes are? Can't you be a little more normal?"
Ye Lan smiled, the boy's smile as gentle as a spring breeze, and he gently pinched Ning Caicai's delicate cheek.
"Hehe, just kidding. It's one thing to keep a straight face at work, but smile more after get off work."
A faint red mark appeared on Ning Caicai's fair right cheek. Watching Ye Lan's departing figure, she appeared dazed, but her heart was already churning with turbulent emotions.
"Miss, was that your boyfriend just now?" The saleswoman looked at Ning Caicai with a maternal smile.
Ning Caicai blushed and said somewhat shyly, "Yes, that's right, he is my boyfriend."
"You and your boyfriend are so loving, but the clothes here might be a bit too big for you. I suggest you go check out the other side."
"No need, I'm not buying the down jacket for myself, I'm buying it for my mom."
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, a happy smile spread across her face.
"That's right, we're going to meet the parents tomorrow."
