Chapter 468: Meeting the Parents

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

After poking his head with her finger for a long time and causing a piece of Ren Baqian’s scalp to flake away, Mama Ren finally glared at him and asked, “Why are you blocking the door and not letting us enter?”

Ren Baqian really didn’t want to let his parents in. Neither he nor the empress had made any preparations to meet his parents yet!

However, how was he supposed to say “no” under these circumstances?

“My girlfriend is inside. Pay attention when you speak later. Don’t act like you know her very well! However, don’t be too restrained either!” Ren Baqian whispered. The empress’s identity was special, and her temperament was cold. He was afraid that his parents would say something that shouldn’t be said. At the same time, he was afraid that they would be uncomfortable around her.

“You actually haven’t brought her back to meet us even though the two of you are cohabitating! I’m your mother, so what’s wrong with checking out my future daughter-in-law?” Mama Ren spoke softly with her eyes wide open.

“It isn’t what you think.” Ren Baqian waved her off.

Cohabitation meant sharing a bed. Living in the same house was also cohabitation. Since both of them were living in the same palace, this could also be considered cohabitation… but, their situation was totally different.

Ren Baqian reached out and dragged his father’s luggage over. After that, he finally brought the both of them into his villa.

“Did your villa get robbed?” Ren Baqian’s parents were at a loss for words when they entered his house. This villa was indeed stylish and luxurious. Although it was a huge surprise for Ren Baqian’s parents because they came from humble backgrounds, they didn’t say much since they were already taken aback after coming in. On the contrary, it was the scene in the living room that startled the both of them.

They saw a huge mess in the living room. Two small sofas that had fallen apart were left in one corner while the coffee table had also been smashed to pieces. Also, there was a huge hole in the wall.

“Nothing major happened.” Ren Baqian tried to cover it up. He then placed their luggage aside and asked, “Have the both of you eaten breakfast?”

“We had our breakfast long ago.”

“Take a seat first.” Ren Baqian immediately got the both of them to sit down.

“Why have you gained so much weight?” Papa Ren questioned him.

“It’s robustness! I’m robust!” Ren Baqian flexed his muscles and replied.

How could this be called gaining weight? I’m 1.75 meters tall and only 90 kilograms!

“Where’s my daughter-in-law?” Mama Ren sat down and looked all over the place with her hands pressed on her head.

“I’ll go take a look!” Ren Baqian hurriedly escaped to the dining room. The empress was having her breakfast, which consisted of a pot of porridge and meat.

He reckoned that if his parents saw the empress’s appetite, they would get a shock.

Anyway, the little monk across from her was already taken aback. From time to time, he timidly sneaked glances at the empress out of fear that she would swallow him up too.

The empress looked up, took a glance at Ren Baqian, and continued to eat.

“My parents are here,” Ren Baqian whispered to her. “They don’t know your identity, so if they provoke you in some way, please don’t take it to heart.”

“Oh!” The empress lowered her head and continued to eat the porridge.

Seeing that the empress’s reaction was normal, Ren Baqian could finally be at ease. However, he still couldn’t relax completely because he was unsure if Dayao had the same tradition of meeting a partner’s parents.

Though after seeing the empress’s reaction, it seemed like there was no such tradition.

Even if it existed, she didn’t know about it.

“Do I have to meet them?” the empress asked indifferently after finishing her breakfast. According to her thoughts, since they had yet to make any plans for marriage, she decided to return to her room.

“I think it’s better to meet them and spend some time with them.” Ren Baqian sighed because he had been suffocated by the actions of his parents. At this stage, if they still didn’t get to meet her, it wouldn’t be justified anymore.

“Oh!”

“Keep eating!” Ren Baqian said to the little monk as he left with the empress.

Stunning!

This was the first impression Ren Baqian’s parents had of the empress.

As the both of them saw a woman in red walking into the room, they didn’t have many adjectives to use to describe her. They only felt that she was much better looking than the celebrities they saw on television.

She was tall and slim and had fair skin, a refined appearance, and fiery red lips.

Also, a pair of peaking brows made her look extremely heroic.

In addition, she exuded a slightly cool and indifferent aura. Regardless of where she was, one could never forget her even if they just took a glance.

She also exuded a dignified aura. Even though the both of them had never seen any big shots before and didn’t know anything about aura and what not, they knew that she wasn’t anyone ordinary upon meeting her.

The empress gave off the feeling that she was a character who came out of a fantasy movie instead of a living person in the real world.

“Hello, I’m Baqian’s father.”

“Hello, I’m Baqian’s mother.”

Both of them stood up and spoke at the same time. They finally understood why Ren Baqian told them not to be restrained. When they saw this fair maiden, they subconsciously got so tense that they couldn’t face her like how ordinary parents would after meeting their future daughter-in-law. Instead, it was as if they had met a big shot from the tension in the the atmosphere.

Even though they saw her once before in Ren Baqian’s selfie, she looked completely different in person.

“I …”

“It’s her pleasure to meet the both of you!” Ren Baqian supplemented her words.

The empress got interrupted by Ren Baqian’s words. She turned and gave him a death stare before turning back, cooly nodding her head at his parents, and saying, “I’m so glad to meet the both of you!”

“This is my father and my mother. This is Qi Zixiao,” Ren Baqian introduced both parties.

“Nice name—it has an imposing manner,” Papa Ren immediately praised.

“Sit, everyone sit. Don’t talk while standing!” Ren Baqian quickly called out.

The empress turned to look at him. With her gaze, she inquired, Sit where?

Apart from the sofa in the middle, everything else in the living room had been destroyed.

“I’ll go get two more chairs!” Ren Baqian declared before hastily running to the dining room and moving some chairs from there.

When he returned, he saw the three of them engaged in a “staring match.”

“Everyone, take a seat.” After Ren Baqian placed the two chairs down, everyone was finally seated.

“Thank you for taking care of Baqian all this time.” Mama Ren felt that she should say something after sitting down. Initially, she didn’t know what to say, but after recalling that she was his superior, she went ahead and thanked the empress.

“He has also helped me out… a lot,” the empress said calmly. With Ren Baqian, her life had changed from black-and-white to color. Her daily life became more enriching and exciting.

“Why are you talking about taking care of and what not…” Ren Baqian forced a laugh. “Why did the both of you suddenly show up? Without even a call!”

“Even if we call, we still can’t locate you. You only return our calls every half a month. Since the both of us have nothing to do, we were wondering if we should come see your new house and conveniently visit you,” Mama Ren said. When talking to Ren Baqian, her intonation immediately reverted to her original state.

“Ain’t I busy now!” Ren Baqian replied.

“We are also unsure what you are busy with. That ‘Golden Medical’ is your brainchild? It seems like it is doing very well now. Something about a new treatment for leukemia?” Mama Ren asked. Before she arrived, she was afraid that he get cheated again and thought that she needed to thoroughly check his girlfriend’s background.

In the end, when she came and saw the empress, she felt that a woman like the empress was too good for the average person. As such, she hurriedly talked about the pharmaceutical company to boost her son’s confidence.

These were an ordinary person’s careful thoughts. Previously, they were afraid that she wouldn’t be able to match up to their son. At the moment, they were worried that their son would be rejected by her.

Even though a son is always the best in his parents’ mind, the both of them searched their hearts. Regardless of whether it was his looks or his other characteristics, Ren Baqian was just an ordinary man. Although he had accomplished something over the past two years, he was only slightly richer and a far cry from those people who had real authority.

Ren Baqian and the empress accompanied the both of them for a while. During this period of time, it was mostly Ren Baqian and his parents doing the talking. The empress rarely spoke.

The little monk Xing Ruo also came out from the dining room, which actually astonished Ren Baqian’s parents. They were wondering why a little monk would be in his villa.

“He was dispatched by his master to accompany us to settle some issues,” Ren Baqian casually explained.

Although his parents did doubt what a little monk like him could do, after recalling that Ren Baqian was working for the nation, they didn’t pursue the matter any further.

After a long time, Ren Baqian finally sent his parents upstairs. When the both of them entered their room, they heaved a huge sigh of relief.

“Ah, why is meeting a daughter-in-law so tiring?” Mama Ren immediately lay down on the bed right after closing the door. “If I had known, I wouldn’t have come.”

“The average daughter-in-law is definitely different,” Papa Ren said. “This girl isn’t an ordinary person.”

“However, this young lady is gorgeous. She’s practically like a character from the movies,” Mama Ren sat up and said.

Papa Ren was greatly affected. Soon after, he replied, “She’s just a little aloof. In the past, I’ve always heard people talking about a big shot’s authority. Today, I’ve finally witnessed it for myself. Just by standing there, she has an authority that prevents anyone from shooting their mouths off.”

Outside, both the empress and Ren Baqian heaved a sigh of relief.

The empress returned to the sofa, hugged both of her knees, and said to Ren Baqian, who was going downstairs, “I feel like eating ice cream!”

The ice cream was for calming her nerves!

She had also been very uncomfortable when talking to Ren Baqian’s parents.

She couldn’t reveal her identity or speak in the manner that she was used to. In addition, she also had to restrain her temper and couldn’t attack them…

Since childhood, this was the first time the empress felt so troubled when talking to someone. She had never been this exhausted before.

She might as well say, “Your son has been chosen to be my husband. In the future, the both of you will be part of the imperial family and receive a first-rate salary!”
