"Hmm? Have you ever seen my father and my mother?" Meng Zhinian was very surprised to see this.

"I just saw it not long ago."

As he said that, Li Yanxu signaled He Fei to bring the things he brought, "I know that my uncle and aunt have just come to the capital, so I went to buy some things I need for daily use."

"Sit down first." Meng Zhinian's mother spoke at this time.

"Thank you aunt."

After Li Yanxu sat down, Meng Zhinian glanced at his parents and said tentatively: "Dad, mom, he... is me... my sweetheart."

As soon as he finished speaking, his father glared at him, "You still have the face to say that you have forgotten everything you have ever experienced since you were a child."

"Okay, Songting, since this is already like this, don't blame her anymore. I can only say... God's will." At this time, Meng Zhinian's aunt spoke.

"My uncle first relieves his anger, and stops her from thinking about it. My uncle and aunt come from afar. I'll be there tonight, so please go out for a casual meal."

"No need to bother Mr. Li." Meng Zhinian's mother spoke softly.

"Aunt you have to be polite, I and Zhi Nian..." Li Yanxu deliberately paused, "We are all a family sooner or later, so we don't have to be so dissatisfied."

"It's too early to say this. You and Zhi Nian have not yet spoken the eight characters." Meng Qingyuan, who was beside him, said in a cold tone.

"But... my uncle has already agreed to me."

"What?!" Meng Qingyuan was full of surprise and immediately looked at his father, "No?"

Even Meng Zhinian's mother looked puzzled, "What's going on?"

Meng Songting looked down at his wife, "I'll tell you later."

"Okay, are you treating me to dinner? Okay, someone is happy to treat me, what are we unwilling to do? You can set a place, but we have some words to say to Zhi Nian alone, and I would like to ask you to avoid it for now."

Li Yanxu also stood up and said goodbye after hearing this.

"I'll send him out."

Before his parents could speak, Meng Zhinian had already pulled Li Yanxu and walked out quickly.

"Tell me quickly, how did you meet my parents?"

"Actually, I have never seen your mother, I just met my uncle..."

At that time, he felt familiar when he saw the man, and later he felt even more strange when he saw him playing chess alone. After staring at him for a while, he realized why he felt familiar. It turned out that the eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Zhiming.

By then, he had already begun to doubt the identity of the man. When the man asked him to play chess together, he could almost confirm his guess, and he was afraid that he would be Zhi Nian's father. The eldest aunt who had Zhi Nian before said that Zhi Nian's parents were about to come.

"So, you beat me with one game of chess?" Meng Zhinian looked at Li Yanxu with dissatisfaction, "Why does it sound like such a playful thing?"

Li Yanxu shaved Meng Zhinian's nose lightly, "It's not as easy as you imagined."

Li Yanxu seemed calm from beginning to end, but in fact he only knew how nervous he was. After the game was over, his palms were covered in cold sweat, and even his back was soaked with sweat.

Meng Zhinian nodded, "It should be quite difficult. My father has good chess skills. None of our family can win him."

"Then...what if you lose? Aren't you afraid? All the industries under your name?" The bet was indeed a bit too big.

"It doesn't matter if you lose." Li Yanxu smiled and said, "At worst, you can do it again, just leave a little capital."

In that chess game, what he was afraid of was never to lose his own property, but to lose her.

It’s not that he is proud. He knows that he has this ability, even if he starts over again, he can still do it, so he is not worried at all.

Meng Zhinian rushed to send Li Yanxu out of the door. Seeing his carriage approaching, Meng Zhinian couldn't help but frowned and said, "Can you take me to elope?"

Li Yanxu burst into laughter, "Afraid of being scolded?"

"It must have been scolded very badly." She knew that she was not ordinary in trouble. Since she could remember, her father repeatedly warned herself not to leave the valley. This time she sneaked out, her father must have been very angry.

"Don't worry, I won't."

Li Yanxu held Meng Zhinian's hand, "Think about it, if your parents were really so angry, how could it be that after knowing the whereabouts, it took so long to come to you? And your brother and aunt, they all found you, and they didn't insist on taking you back immediately. I think, in fact, they were not very angry about your run away from home."

"Yeah?"

"Okay, go back, believe me, there will be no problem."

I just realized that her family loved her so much that she could not scold her. It was because Zhi Nian was too guilty.

After watching Li Yanxu get on the carriage, Meng Zhinian turns back with a step.

Before he could walk a few steps, Meng Qingyuan quickly walked towards her, and said, "Why are you so slow? I thought you begged Li Yanxu to take you away."

This sentence felt as if it hits the point, and Meng Zhinian guiltily avoided his gaze.

"Go away quickly, my parents asked me to come and see you. Why are you so slow and not going back yet?"

"Brother, if dad and mom get angry later, please help me block it. I have saved you so many times since I was a child, and it is time for you to repay me."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, go quickly."

Meng Zhinian then lowered her head and returned to the room with a look of admitting her mistake.

"Do you know you're wrong?" Meng Songting looked at his daughter helplessly.

"knew."

"Do you really understand?"

"Well, I really know." As he said that, Meng Zhinian raised his head and looked at his father, "Dad, since I was a child, I have been the most obedient, right? Just this time, don't bother me."

"It's not that I want to care about you, it's... it's because you're too bold. You've never left the valley before, so you dare to run away from home without authorization. What if you encounter something outside?"

In fact, when he knew that Zhi Nian had sneaked out, he first regretted it. Maybe he had been wrong all the time and shouldn't have locked her in the valley and not allowed her to go out.

"Aren't I okay? I have very high martial arts skills, and the people here are very weak."

"It's okay? You're not bad? I've heard about it before I arrived in the capital. You and the little Marquis Zou... What's the story of changing the bride in the wedding hall? It's messy. Isn't it okay?"

"That was he deliberately wanted to frame me, but I didn't know."

"Also, that Li Yanxu, you didn't even tell us, and you made a private decision with him for life. You are too brave."
