7 Meeting the "In-laws"

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Vroom! Vroom!"

Mu Qianqian stepped on the accelerator and gave Qin Feng a smug look. She then drove Qin Feng away from the police station.

Mu Qianqian was born into a family of businessmen. Her father was the chairman of a famous enterprise, the New City Group. His net worth was over hundreds of millions of yuan, and he was considered to be one of the richest individuals within Ocean City.

Being born into such a prestigious family, Mu Qianqian was an honest-to-good member of the ruling class.

Jokes aside, now that the reality of bringing Qin Feng to meet her parents had finally sunken in, Mu Qianqian started to become nervous. After leaving the police station, Mu Qianqian immediately drove Qin Feng to Ocean City's largest shopping mall to purchase him a set of high-class clothes that fit her parents' aesthetics. Regardless of what she had said previously, somewhere deep down, she hoped that Qin Feng would gain her parents approval. This way, she would no longer have to attend any more blind dates, and she would no longer have to deal with the young'uns trying to get in her good graces.

For this purpose, Mu Qianqian had put in a lot of effort to select Qin Feng's clothes.

Although the process to reach the outcome was a little tortuous, the suit that Mu Qianqian had finally settled upon was truly stunning. One look at the salesgirl's glittering eyes had told Mu Qianqian all she needed to know.

After changing into the custom-made suit that Mu Qianqian had chosen for him, Qin Feng's already dashing appearance was brought up to a whole different level. The suit was beautifully crafted, and the contours of the suit had made Qin Feng's waist look straight and slender, and it had further accentuated his already fine figure.

"Miss, your boyfriend is very handsome. This suit suits him extremely well!"

The salesgirl had a professional smile on her face, and one look at her slightly envious gaze had confirmed the authenticity of her words.

Mu Qianqian smiled and did not refute the salesgirl's words. She sized up Qin Feng who was looking at himself in the mirror and thought to herself, 'He looks really handsome in this suit. If my parents really do approve of him, maybe I'll take him up on his offer.'

"So, Miss Mu, how is it? Am I to your liking?"

Qin Feng turned around and walked to Mu Qianqian with a grin on his face.

"It looks fine I guess. Let's just go with this one. We'll be late if we continue shopping."

Mu Qianqian said with a hint of disdain on her face. Then, she turned around, took out a card, and handed it to the salesperson. "We'll take this suit. Swipe the card. There's no password."

Despite her words, Mu Qianqian was genuinely satisfied with Qin Feng's outfit.

Qin Feng, who was already handsome to begin with, instantly attracted the attention of the people around him. As of this moment, Qin Feng looked no different than those acclaimed celebrities that were shown on TV.

"Look, look, he's so handsome!"

"Quick, take a picture. Do you think he's a celebrity?"

"Wow, he's drop dead handsome. I want to ask for his phone number. Do you think he'll give it to me?"

"Who's the girl next to him? Is she his girlfriend?"

"..."

The moment Qin Feng stepped out of the shop, he could hear the young girls around him singing him praises. Groups of females were beginning to congregate around him, and their eyes were constantly glued to him.

Of course, Qin Feng's attractiveness was not limited to only the young ladies. Other than the ladies, there were also some mature women who would cast their gazes at Qin Feng as he walked past them.

It was in man's nature to seek and enjoy beauty. Girls liked to look at handsome men, just as boys liked to look at beautiful women. It was simply the natural order of things.

"What are you lazing around for? Hurry up, we're leaving, we're going to be late."

Mu Qianqian smiled as she took a step forward and hooked her arm around Qin Feng's. At this moment, she truly felt that she was Qin Feng's girlfriend. She was both proud and a little jealous at the same time. The coquettishness that she subconsciously displayed had further enhanced her attractiveness.

'This chest size... I really couldn't tell from her appearance. Also, why don't I remember her wearing any perfume today?'

Qin Feng was being dragged away by Mu Qianqian, but since his mind was elsewhere, he did not put up any resistance against her.

Imperial Wind Pavilion!

It was a high-end restaurant within Ocean City. Most people had heard of it, not because of the restaurant's mysterious name, but because a meal in this restaurant would cost at least ten thousand yuan.

Usually, only those who were rich or were of noble birth would dine in this restaurant. The common folk would rather not spend their money there, as each meal taken there could set their finances back by decades!

"Screeeech"

The sound of tires coming to a halt against the asphalt had attracted much attention.

Mu Qianqian got out of the car and threw the keys to the valet.

Indeed, as a high-end establishment, valet parking services were provided, as those who could afford to dine in the restaurant were usually those who enjoyed the feeling of being served.

"Holy... Th-This is the Imperial Wind Pavilion!"

Qin Feng's eyes instantly widened. He could vaguely tell that Mu Qianqian's family was well off, but he had not expected her family to be THAT well off! The bonus he had just received was not even enough for him to have a meal here. This realization made Qin Feng a little dumbfounded.

"What are you staring at? Let's go, my parents are already inside."

Mu Qianqian walked over and held Qin Feng's arm as they walked inside.

"Huh? Oh."

Qin Feng regained his composure, and after taking a deep breath, he tidied up his clothes and followed behind Mu Qianqian's footsteps.

"What are you nervous about? Where did all that bravado from earlier go? You have to work hard. If my parents really do approve of you, you might really have a chance to become my boyfriend."

Mu Qianqian playfully winked at Qin Feng in an attempt to ease his nerves.

"Then I'll have to work hard. Don't worry, I promise I'll pass their evaluation."

Qin Feng regained his previous playful demeanor and replied with a smile.

"Also, don't forget that we've been 'dating' for almost a year. Don't let anything slip. Otherwise, my parents will eat me up!"

Mu Qianqian reminded him again. He was really afraid that Qin Feng would be exposed and her parents would find out. Her mother's raised voice when Mu Qianqian had called her to inform her was still fresh in Mu Qianqian's mind.

"Don't worry, I'm a professional."

Qin Feng comforted Mu Qianqian, and by doing so, he had also eased his emotions a little. After all, he was still a little nervous to meet his "in laws" all of a sudden.

"Let's go."

Mu Qianqian took a deep breath and silently muttered words of encouragement to herself. She looked at the handsome Qin Feng beside her and felt a little more confident. After a short while, she held Qin Feng's arm and walked to the table that they had booked in advance.

At table 888, Mu Hongfa and his wife, Ren Jie, who had arrived a long time ago, sat there without saying a word. Neither of them seemed to be in a good mood.

It was to be expected, however. After all, they were happily in the process of organizing a blind date for their daughter when suddenly, they received a call from her, telling them she had already met someone and they had been going out for almost a year. As such, they did not think too highly of the man that they were about to meet.
