“Yifan’s mom, hasn’t Yifan come back yet? It’s already six o’clock!” Wang Yifan’s aunt asked.
Hmph!
Wang Yifan had been gone for so long.
He definitely hadn’t managed to pick up his girlfriend.
More likely, he had lied to his parents about having a girlfriend just to save face!
When Wang Yifan came back alone, she wanted to see how his mother would handle the situation.
They had even made such a huge spectacle today, practically inviting everyone in the village!
Hehe!
“He’ll be here soon. Yifan just called me and said he’s already arrived in Wengxiang. He’ll be here in a few minutes.”
“Really? Then let’s go outside and wait for them. I’m quite curious to see what your future daughter-in-law looks like.”
“Yeah, we’re curious too. Dinner is already prepared, so let’s go outside and wait for them.”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
“Exactly. There’s nothing else to do anyway. We’re just sitting here chatting. We might as well get some fresh air and wait for Wang Yifan.”
As they spoke, the people who had been sitting around Wang Yifan’s living room warming themselves by the fire immediately streamed outside.
Only a few people who were still busy remained inside, including Wang Yifan’s mother and his aunt.
Everyone else came out of the house and stood along the roadside waiting.
Less than two minutes after they came outside, Wang Yifan drove his father’s car up to the front of the house.
“He’s here! He’s here! Wang Yifan is back!”
The moment those words were spoken, everyone’s eyes immediately turned toward the passenger seat.
They weren’t there to see Wang Yifan.
They were there to see whether he had actually brought his girlfriend back!
The moment their eyes landed on the passenger seat—
Everyone froze.
A beautiful woman with a stunning figure and a sweet appearance was sitting there.
She had long, light-brown hair, a delicate pair of earrings, and a pair of beautiful, expressive eyes.
Her facial features were exquisitely refined, almost as though they had been naturally sculpted.
She carried herself with an elegant and generous air.
With just one glance, everyone was completely stunned.
That included Wang Baoshan and Li Jiali.
Li Jiali, in particular, knew exactly who Zhao Lusi was.
The woman sitting in the passenger seat was none other than Zhao Lusi!
This—
Li Jiali stared at Wang Yifan in shock.
At this moment, she instantly understood.
What Wang Yifan had said at Wang Baoshan’s house that night hadn’t been a lie.
It was all true!
His girlfriend really was Zhao Lusi!
His girlfriend really was a famous celebrity!
What a joke!
What celebrity would agree to act in something like this?
After all, something like this involved her reputation.
If she weren’t genuinely dating him, why would she come here?
Li Jiali glanced at Wang Baoshan beside her.
At this moment, he looked like a complete clown.
Previously, he had relentlessly mocked Wang Yifan, calling him a spoiled parasite who lived off his parents.
He had even ridiculed him for dreaming about having a celebrity girlfriend and told him to “sleep with a thicker pillow under his head.”
Hehe!
Now it turned out that he really was a clown.
A complete and utterly humiliated clown!
Wang Yifan had originally planned to park the car right in front of the house and first carry the things inside.
But when he saw so many people gathered outside, he abandoned that idea.
He drove the car up the slope instead, to the parking area a few meters away from the house.
After parking, he got out first.
Meanwhile, Zhao Lusi put on her padded coat while still sitting in the passenger seat.
Once she had finished putting it on, Wang Yifan walked around to the passenger side and opened the door for her.
Zhao Lusi reached out and placed her hand in his.
Then she stepped out of the car.
After locking the vehicle, Wang Yifan held Zhao Lusi’s hand and walked toward his home.
The moment Wang Yifan’s parents heard that he had brought his girlfriend back, they rushed out of the house.
When they saw their son walking toward them hand in hand with a sweet-looking woman, excitement immediately appeared on their faces.
The people around them also stepped aside, leaving the path open for the couple.
Wang Yifan held Zhao Lusi’s hand, their fingers intertwined.
As they approached his house, he felt Zhao Lusi tighten her grip considerably.
She was holding his hand tightly, and her hand was trembling slightly.
Wang Yifan could feel how nervous she was.
He gently squeezed her hand and turned to give her a reassuring look.
Seeing him, Zhao Lusi’s nervousness eased somewhat.
She felt incredibly nervous.
In the past, even when she was acting or performing at concerts attended by tens of thousands of people, she had never felt this nervous.
She didn’t even know how to describe this feeling.
So this was what it felt like to go home with your boyfriend to meet his parents?
She was so nervous!
Her heart was pounding wildly.
It felt as though it might leap right out of her chest.
He immediately introduced Zhao Lusi.
“Lusi, these are my parents.”
Zhao Lusi obediently greeted them.
“Hello, Uncle and Auntie. I’m Lusi.”
“Good, good, good! You’re so beautiful!”
Wang Yifan’s mother was extremely excited.
Zhao Lusi was often praised for her beauty, but when she heard those words from Wang Yifan’s mother, a faint blush quietly appeared on her cheeks.
“Lusi, welcome!”
Wang Yifan’s father was comparatively calmer.
“Mm-hmm. Uncle, these are gifts I bought for you and Auntie.”
As she spoke, Zhao Lusi took two gold necklaces out of her bag—the ones she had bought earlier with Lin Wangsheng at Dolphin Plaza.
When Wang Yifan’s parents saw the gold necklaces Zhao Lusi had bought for them, they were deeply moved.
“Lusi, it’s enough that you came. Why did you buy us gifts too?”
Although Wang Yifan’s father said this, he happily accepted the gold necklace from her.
His face was full of smiles.
The relatives standing around Wang Yifan’s parents were instantly filled with envy when they saw Zhao Lusi give each of them a gold necklace as soon as she arrived.
In their area, girls rarely brought gifts when visiting a boyfriend’s family.
But Zhao Lusi had arrived with two gold necklaces.
They were worth at least tens of thousands of yuan!
“Mom, Dad, can we go home first?”
Wang Yifan said helplessly.
“Yes, yes, yes. Look at us! Lusi, come on. Come home with Auntie.”
As she spoke, she wiped her hands on her apron, then took Zhao Lusi’s hand and led her toward the house.
The surrounding relatives looked at Wang Yifan and Zhao Lusi, completely stunned.
The older generation was shocked by Zhao Lusi’s sweet appearance and elegant, sophisticated bearing.
The younger generation was even more shocked that Zhao Lusi was actually Wang Yifan’s girlfriend.
She was a major celebrity!
She alone had more than 40 million followers on Yinfu’s short-video platform!
Not to mention that she was one of the hottest celebrities in the entertainment industry right now.
She was extremely popular!
Although she certainly had quite a few haters, no one could deny that she was genuinely outstanding.
And yet a woman this exceptional was actually Wang Yifan’s girlfriend.
What had he done to deserve her?
