Chapter 175 Is that vixen really more important than your mother?
Shi family.
Shi Lu had been urged to go home recently and couldn't refuse, so today he finally had to take some time out to go back and visit.
As soon as he stepped into the house, he heard laughter from inside.
This strange voice made him frown and wondered secretly, "Could this be a Hongmen Banquet?"
He walked into the living room with doubts in his heart, and saw his mother and a girl sitting on the sofa, chatting happily.
"Mom." he shouted.
"Oh, Xiaolu is back, come and sit here." His mother waved to him happily.
"Xinxin, this is my son Shilu whom I just mentioned to you."
"Xiao Lu, this is Uncle Tang's daughter Tang Xin. They just moved back here a while ago. You two used to play together when you were little."
"I don't remember." Shi Lu didn't seem to have any interest in her and just replied indifferently.
"What's wrong with you, kid? Come over here and sit down, and chat with Xinxin."
Shi's mother grabbed him and forced the two of them together, making them sit very close to each other.
Their skin accidentally touched each other and they both frowned.
"Hello."
"Hello."
The two of them greeted each other awkwardly.
Shi's mother thought she was making them embarrassed, so she made an excuse, "Xinxin, you two can have a good chat. Auntie is going to prepare dinner. Let's eat here tonight."
Tang Xin quickly stood up and declined, "Auntie, it's too much trouble."
"No trouble, just sit down."
Shi's mother warmly invited Tang Xin to sit down, then turned and walked into the kitchen.
After Shi's mother left, the two people who were originally sitting together moved aside at the same time as if they had been electrocuted. The atmosphere between them became a little subtle and awkward.
Then, both of them fell into silence and no one spoke.
Tang Xin felt very uncomfortable. She tried to break the silence. When she was about to speak, she didn't expect the man to speak as well: "I..."
"You go ahead and say it."
Hearing this, Tang Xin was stunned for a moment, but then regained his composure.
She took a deep breath and looked directly into the man's eyes: "You should speak first."
"Miss Tang, you should know what my mother means, but I have a girlfriend, so it's impossible for us." His thin lips curled up slightly, but his eyes flashed with a strange and cold light.
The moment Tang Xin's eyes met the man's, she couldn't help but shrink.
But this strange emotion was fleeting, and she quickly adjusted herself and responded: "It just so happens that I am not interested in you either."
When Shi Lu heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of doubt.
However, Tang Xin did not give him much time to think, and immediately said: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After that, she stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
"Auntie, stop busying yourself. I have something urgent to deal with." Tang Xin walked into the kitchen and said to Shi's mother who was busy.
Mother Shi turned around and asked with concern, "Did that boy say something to upset you?"
"Auntie, no. I really have something to do. I will definitely stay for dinner another day." Tang Xin explained quickly.
"Okay, you must come often." Shi's mother said with a smile.
"Uh-huh."
Tang Xin responded, then turned and left the Shi family.
After everyone left, Shi's mother slowly walked to the sofa and sat down, saying earnestly: "Xinxin is a really good child. Her family background is comparable to ours. In the future, our two families will definitely be able to help each other."
However, Shi Lu retorted impatiently: "Mom, I already have a girlfriend, please stop interfering, okay?"
Shi's mother responded firmly: "That woman will never step into our house. I will never agree to the two of you being together."
Shi Lu asked angrily, "What's wrong with Yi Yi that makes you so dissatisfied?"
Shi's mother snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Humph! Only a silly boy like you would be bewitched by that vixen. You are very good at talking."
"I don't know where she learned those tricks to seduce men. Maybe she has a lot of lovers in the bar."
When the man heard his mother slandering his beloved woman like this, he immediately flew into a rage and shouted, "Shut up! I will never marry anyone else except her in my life."
Mother Shi was so angry that she almost fainted. She pointed at her son with a trembling hand and said, "You...you are really going to piss me off to death!"
He asked excitedly: "Is family background really that important? Didn't you go through the same thing back then? Then why do you want her to repeat your mistakes?"
Shi's mother widened her eyes and shouted angrily, "How can this be the same? I won't go to work in such a shady place like her, and I won't stay in a hotel with other men."
"Who on earth told you these words? Please don't jump to conclusions before you understand the situation clearly. I am the only man you have."
"You just believe whatever she says. You're busy at work every day. How would you know if she's cheating on you?"
Shi's mother sat on the sofa, looking at her son with an impatient look on his face, feeling a little sad.
"I really can't chat with you anymore. I'm busy. I'll come back to see you another day." After saying that, he stood up and prepared to walk out.
"Stop!" Shi's mother shouted hurriedly, her eyes full of disappointment and anger.
"Mom, I'm really busy."
Shi Lu stopped helplessly and turned to look at his mother.
"Is that vixen really more important than your mother?" Shi's mother said through gritting her teeth.
"She has a name, please respect her." Shi Lu's tone also became stiff.
"Let's have dinner at home tonight." Shi's mother suddenly changed the subject.
"What are you arguing about!" A stern voice came from the door.
Shi Lu and Shi's mother looked towards the door at the same time, only to see Shi's father walking in.
"Hubby, you're back and there's no noise." Shi's mother quickly stood up and walked forward to greet him.
"Dad." Shi Lu called in a low voice.
"Well, since you are all here tonight, let's have dinner together." Shi's father nodded and looked at Shi Lu.
Shi Lu noticed the suggestive look from his mother, and still felt a little dissatisfied.
But he suppressed it and nodded.
"You two can have a good chat. I'll go to the kitchen to see how Aunt Liu is preparing."
Shi's mother patted Shi Lu's shoulder gently, then turned and walked towards the kitchen.
