Chapter 931
They're all on our side
After hearing his cousin Li Ruiming and his girlfriend Lin Jingyu's words, Xu Bo'an laughed and said to the two of them, "I have to say, you two are a perfect match. You're already playing the role of a devoted couple to tease me before you're even married. What will you be like after you get married!"
Upon hearing Xu Bo'an's words, the group burst into laughter! The atmosphere in the private room instantly became relaxed and harmonious.
After chatting for a few more minutes, the waiter brought the food they had ordered to the table, closed the door to the private room, and left.
Xu Bo'an, Li Ruiming, and Lin Jingyu then began to eat and chat.
Suddenly, someone pushed the door open and entered. Several people turned their heads and saw two elderly people standing at the door.
Just as Li Ruiming was about to speak, his girlfriend Lin Jingyu, who was sitting next to him, stood up with a surprised expression and said to the two elderly people at the door, "Dad, Mom, what brings you here?"
The two elderly people standing at the door said, "We came here to eat today. Just now, when we passed by, the waiter opened the door to deliver food to you. We happened to see you in the private room, so we came over to say hello. Hope we didn't disturb you!"
Before Lin Jingyu could reply, Li Ruiming quickly stepped forward and politely said to Lin Jingyu's parents, "Uncle, Aunt, we're not bothering you at all. Since you're here to eat too, it's better to be lucky than early. We've met by chance, so please sit down and eat with us!"
Lin Jingyu's parents quickly said to Li Ruiming, "No need, no need. You are all young people. It's not appropriate for us old folks to eat with you. We'd be too much of a bother. We'll just go out and order something to eat on our own later!"
Li Ruiming quickly and politely said, "Uncle, Auntie, it's alright, we won't bother you at all!"
Lin Jingyu's parents looked at Li Ruiming and said with a smile, "You're quite polite, young man. Are you Yu'er's colleague?"
Li Ruiming was stunned by Lin Jingyu's parents' question. He didn't know how to answer. It wasn't that Li Ruiming didn't want to tell Lin Jingyu's parents that he was Lin Jingyu's boyfriend.
Li Ruiming was worried about Lin Jingyu's opinion, as they had only recently started dating. He feared that if Lin Jingyu didn't want to tell her parents about her boyfriend, it might affect their relationship.
With this thought in mind, Li Ruiming turned his head and looked at his girlfriend, Lin Jingyu, wanting Lin Jingyu to answer her parents' question herself.
When Lin Jingyu saw Li Ruiming looking at her, she stepped forward and said to her parents, "Since we've run into each other today, I'll be honest with you two. This is my new boyfriend!"
Upon hearing Lin Jingyu's words, the elderly couple instantly beamed with joy. Lin Jingyu's mother hurriedly grabbed Li Ruiming's hand and said, "Oh my, my daughter has a boyfriend! He's so tall and handsome, and most importantly, so polite. I like him more and more every time I see him!"
After Lin Jingyu's mother finished speaking, she nudged her husband with her elbow and said, "Don't you think so, my dear husband?"
Lin Jingyu's father, who was standing nearby, quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, this child is tall and well-behaved, and very polite. He's a good child!"
Hearing Lin Jingyu introduce him as her boyfriend to her parents, and hearing their praise of him, Li Ruiming felt incredibly happy, as if he'd eaten honey. He quickly extended an invitation to Lin Jingyu's parents again, saying, "Uncle, Auntie, please sit down and let's eat together!"
Upon hearing Li Ruiming's words, Lin Jingyu's parents quickly smiled and said, "Okay, okay, since we're all family here, and this is our first time meeting you, let's sit down and eat together. We hope we're not disturbing you."
Li Ruiming quickly said to the two elders, "No need to disturb us, no need to disturb us, please have a seat!"
Then Li Ruiming arranged seats for Lin Jingyu's parents. Xu Bo'an couldn't help but laugh as he watched Li Ruiming's eager and smug expression.
However, Li Ruiming was older than Xu Bo'an and had never married, so Xu Bo'an could completely understand his behavior.
After everyone was seated, Li Ruiming extended a hand and pointed to Xu Bo'an, introducing him to Lin Jingyu's parents: "Uncle, Aunt, this is my cousin, named Xu Bo'an. We're all family, so please don't stand on ceremony!"
Out of politeness, Xu Bo'an greeted Lin Jingyu's parents, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt!"
Lin Jingyu's parents nodded to Xu Bo'an and said, "He's really handsome, and a very polite young man. Hello, hello!"
At this moment, Lin Jingyu said, "That's right, he's not only handsome, but also the big boss of Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory!"
Lin Jingyu's father said, "Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory? Which Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory?"
Lin Jingyu said, "It's Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory in Dongjiang. It's been really popular lately. Even you old folks often talk about it when you get together. You can't be saying you've never heard of it, can you?"
Upon hearing Lin Jingyu's words, Lin Jingyu's parents nodded hurriedly, their faces showing great surprise. They said, "Oh, oh, of course we've heard of Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory in Dongjiang. Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory is an old-established enterprise in Dongjiang City, and most people have heard of it. It's just that it didn't do well later, but recently we've heard from the neighbors that after Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory was acquired, its performance has been booming. We even heard that the employees are now getting welfare housing!"
My wife and I had only heard about this from our neighbors before; we never imagined we'd actually meet the big boss of Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory in person today, and even have the honor of dining at the same table! This alone is enough for me to brag about to the neighbors for years to come!
Lin Jingyu looked at her parents and said, "Dad, Mom, what are you saying? It's not appropriate to say this in front of others!"
Lin Jingyu's parents smiled and looked at Xu Bo'an, saying, "We were so excited to hear that you are the big boss of Kangtai Pharmaceutical Factory. We feel very honored to meet you, which is why we said those things. Please don't take offense!"
Xu Bo'an said to Lin Jingyu's parents, "It's alright, Uncle and Aunt, thank you for your appreciation!"
After hearing Xu Bo'an's words, Lin Jingyu said to him, "As expected of the boss of a big company, you have a broad mind. Thank you for not holding it against my parents!"
Then Lin Jingyu said to her parents, "Mom and Dad, don't say anything carelessly in front of others!" (End of Chapter)
