Reborn 92's Business Tycoon

Chapter 348: No. 160, Meeting the Parents

As soon as he exited the Phoenix International Airport with his luggage cart, Feng Yiping hurriedly took off the sweater he was wearing. When he left, the capital was -7°C. The forecast on the plane said that the temperature here would be 21°C at the lowest and 27°C at the highest, so it went from winter to summer in no time.

Huang Jingping and Jin Ling are both quite tough. When they left the house in the morning, they didn't wear sweaters. At this time, they just took their jackets in their hands, rolled up the sleeves of their long-sleeved T-shirts, and put on sunglasses on their noses, making a seamless transition.

'Yiping,' Mei Yiliang ran over from the parking lot wearing a very flashy short-sleeved shirt. As soon as he heard someone shouting, Huang Jingping became a little nervous and quickly pulled her hand out of Feng Yiping's hand.

'Brother-in-law, you're dressed in a very trendy way!'

'Haha, everyone dresses like this here. Hello, Mr. Jin!'

'Hello, Mr. Mei!'

'Brother-in-law, let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Huang Jingping,'

'Haha, I already know. Haven't we met a few times in town? Let's go, Jingping, everyone is waiting to meet you!'

Hearing this, Huang Jingping became even more nervous, and she said hello in a somewhat awkward manner, 'Hello, Mr. Mei!'

'No, you'd better just call me Yiping. It's too formal to call you 'President Mei'.' Mei Yiliang carried the suitcases of the two women in each hand and walked in front of them.

The car was a bullet-shaped business car rented from the hotel. Huang Jingping and Jin Ling sat in the back row as Mei Yiliang introduced them, 'Over there is the end of the earth and the sea. The hotel we're staying at is right next to it. It has its own private beach, and you can see the sea from the room. The environment is quite nice.'

Jin Ling leaned back comfortably in her chair, squinting her eyes at the blinding sunlight outside. She was enjoying herself, while Huang Jingping said nothing, huddled in her seat and looking pitifully at Feng Yiping whenever she saw him turn around.

'Don't worry, I'm here!' Feng Yiping held out his hand, and Huang Jingping quickly took it firmly, as if she wanted to draw strength from his hand.

'Yes, don't worry. Everyone is happy to see Yiping find such a good girlfriend as you. There's nothing to be nervous about. Everyone is easy-going,' Mei Yiliang also comforted her.

As it turned out, Feng Yiping's worries were completely unnecessary. When they arrived at the hotel, as soon as Huang Jingping got out of the car, her whole demeanour was completely different. Gone was the pitiful look she had just had; she was radiant and more energetic than usual.

Just as men always want to win the heart of a beautiful woman, girls are probably always preparing for the day they meet their boyfriend's parents for the first time. Although they are a little worried, they have definitely rehearsed this scenario in their minds many times, so they actually have a plan.

'My father and Yiping's parents live in that villa over there. Why don't you go over and have a chat with them, Jin?'

'Yes, let's go over and have a chat. Sister Jin, my parents have never met a second-generation official like you.' Feng Yiping also enthusiastically invited her, saying that if Jin Ling went over now, she could at least help Huang Jingping relieve some of her pressure.

'Hey,' Mei Yiliang patted Feng Yiping on the shoulder, 'how dare you speak to General Manager Jin like that!'

'It's fine, General Manager Mei, your nephew has been polite today, considering what he said.'

'Don't mind him, General Jin. He used to be fine, but sometimes he speaks without thinking these days.'

'It's fine, I'm used to it.'

Listening to the sound of the crashing waves, the three followed the waiter along the wooden boardwalk laid on the ground, and walked up to a villa next to the main building of the hotel. Feng Yuxuan was wearing a white T-shirt and standing next to the door, looking towards them with her hand on the railing. Feng Yiping waved at her, but she pushed the door open and went in. What's going on?

After the waiter placed the suitcase on the steps in front of the door, the door opened. Feng Yuxuan and Hui Hui took hold of each side of the door, making a gesture that said, 'Please come in!'

Grandpa, Mom, Dad, and little auntie were all standing in the hall at this time, smiling and looking over.

'Grandpa,' Feng Yiping called out.

'Yiping is here, did the trip go well?'

'It was pretty good,'

'Come, sit down,' Mei Qiuping said, motioning everyone to the sofa. It was the first time she had seen Feng Yiping after such a long time, but instead of rushing over to greet him, she kept smiling and looking at Huang Jingping, who was sitting next to Feng Yiping.

Jin Ling and Huang Jingping were both meeting the family for the first time, so Feng Yiping introduced them, 'This is my grandfather, my father, my mother, my younger aunt, my sister, and the little guy is my little cousin, Hui Hui,'

He introduced one person after another, and they greeted each one. At the end, Feng Yiping pointed at Jin Ling and said, 'This is the future president of the head office, Jin Ling. She is a top student who graduated from Harvard Business School. Her father is the director of the Provincial Planning Commission, a rank equivalent to a provincial minister. Although it is the same rank as the mayor, his power is much greater.'

Grandpa and the others didn't know about Harvard, but the mayor definitely knew about it. 'President Jin, we are deeply honoured that you are willing to work in a small place like ours.'

Feng Zhenchang can now say these things off the cuff.

'There, you're too kind, uncle!' Jin Ling is in a good mood now.

'And, this last one,' Feng Yiping takes Huang Jingping's hand, 'this is my girlfriend, Huang Jingping.'

'Hello, grandpa, hello, uncle Feng, hello, auntie, hello, auntie-in-law, hello, sister,' Huang Jingping stands up and greets them again.

Hui Hui, sitting on her uncle's lap, shouts, 'and there's me,'

'Yes, how could I forget you, Huihui, hello!'

'Good, good, good,' Grandpa smiled and said three "goods" in a row, "You don't have to be so polite, just sit down and talk!'

'Thank you, Grandpa!'

'Let's eat some fruit," Feng Yuxuan came over with a large plate of local seasonal fruit.

Feng Yiping picked a guava, cut it in half, and gave it to Jin Ling and Huang Jingping. 'This is good for you to eat. Not only is it anti-oxidant, it slows down ageing, whitens the skin, and is also a top-notch weight-loss fruit!'

They were quite happy to hear the first part of the introduction, but they weren't so happy with the second part.

'Yiping, what are you talking about? Where are they fat?' Feng Yuping's auntie said with a smile.

'Yes, if it's effective for weight loss, I'll eat it,' Feng Yuxuan picked one too, "Mom, you eat more too, it slows down ageing, you'll be younger next year than you are this year.'

'Then I'll become a monster?" Mei Qiuping laughed and took it, patting Feng Yuxuan on the back.

Hui Hui had been in kindergarten for half a year, she understood what the adults were saying, and picked one from the plate too, handing it to Cai Hong like a treasure, 'Mom, you eat it too.'

'Haha,' this is really a sweet little guy.

'By the way, Jingping, haven't we met before?' Mei Qiuping asked with a smile.

'Yes, auntie, my father works in town and my mother runs a small shop there. We met a few years ago when you came home for the New Year,'

'No wonder, I said how you looked familiar. Are your parents doing well?'

'They're doing well,'

'Your father works in the town unit, is he busy now?'

'The forestry station,'

'Oh, that's good. Are you the only one in your family?'

'I'm the eldest, and there's a younger sister,'

I guess every girl has to go through this when she goes to her boyfriend's house for the first time. Of course, the same is probably true for boys when they go to a girl's house for the first time. But Mei Qiuping is a bit too impatient. This is going to take a while. But Jin Ling is still here. How could she be patient with this?

'Mom, I'll take them to the hotel to settle in first, and you can interrogate them after lunch, okay? They've flown thousands of miles here, and they haven't even had a drink of water!'

'What kind of words are you using, child? What do you mean interrogate? I'm not concerned about Jingping?'

'Then can you show concern later, and let them rest for a while?'

'It's fine, I'm having a good chat with Auntie. You can take Sister Jin up first,' Huang Jingping said to Feng Yiping with a smile.

This is a very open and honest thing to say, and her emotional intelligence is absolutely top-notch. It may seem that all girls are the same, and that they seem weak and helpless, but in fact, their ability to withstand pressure is absolutely top-notch.

'Yes, Jingping can sleep with me tonight!' Feng Yuxuan said, and it seems that she actually seems to fit in with her sister quite well.

'Then, Grandpa Mei, aunt and uncle, I'll take my leave first,' Jin Ling got up to say goodbye.

Feng Zhenchang saw her to the door, 'I'm presumptuous, but let me call you Little Jin. Come have lunch with us!'

'Uncle, you can just call me Xiaojin. I probably really can't make it at lunch, everyone from the company will be there, and I still need to discuss the schedule with Yiping,' this lunch seemed to be a family banquet for Feng Yiping, mainly to welcome Feng Yiping's girlfriend, and she didn't want to get involved.

'It's fine, Dad, everyone will get together for dinner tonight,' by Jinling's nature, it was already very unexpected for Feng Yiping that she could show such performance and patience today.

'Okay, thank you, Miss Xiaojin!'
