Cai Yang was awakened by a nightmare early in the morning.
He couldn't believe it. He actually dreamt about Du Ming, and Du Ming even showed a completely different expression, smiling and saying that he recognized him. This scared Cai Yang so much that he broke out in a cold sweat and woke up immediately.
It took a long time for Cai Yang to come to his senses from the dream and he said, "Dreams are opposite, he definitely doesn't know it's me."
Mumbling to himself, Cai Yang finally managed to brainwash himself. He glanced at the time, quickly finished his morning routine, and went downstairs to prepare for breakfast.
Cai Yang saw his father and mother sitting in the living room, with worried expressions on their faces, as soon as he came downstairs. "Mom and Dad, why didn't you go out?"
Seeing Cai Yang coming downstairs, Cai Mama struggled to squeeze out what she believed to be a somewhat presentable smile and said, "Yang Yang, you've woken up. Are you hungry?"
"Kind of." Cai Yang patted his stomach. It was almost noon, so how could he not be hungry?
However, at this moment, he was even more puzzled: why haven't mom and dad gone out yet? What happened?
Cai Yang temporarily gave up searching for food and sat down next to him, saying, "Dad, don't you have to work today? It's almost noon, is there nothing going on at the company today?"
Mr. Cai's eyes flickered for a moment, and Cai Yang suddenly felt something was amiss.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Did something happen to the company?" Cai Yang suddenly thought of something bad and asked worriedly.
Hearing Cai Yang's question, Mr. Cai shook his head and said, "No, the company is doing well, and today is the weekend, so there's no need to go to the office. But there's something I need to tell you, and you need to prepare yourself mentally."
Are you mentally prepared? Cai Yang didn't understand.
What on earth is going on? My parents are acting so solemnly, as if it's something really important.
"Let me tell you. " Auntie Cai glared: "The people from the Du family want to have a meal together today. I wanted to tell you yesterday, but seeing that you weren't in high spirits, I didn't say anything."
"What?!?!" Cai Yang felt like he had been hit hard.
He only met the head of the Du family yesterday, and now he has to have a meal with the people from the Du family today. Isn't this torturing him? Furthermore, he has agreed to get married, but he hasn't made the necessary preparations yet. Just as he has made the decision, he has to meet the parents already. This...
Mr. Cai's father could tell from his expression that he intended to refuse. Without waiting for him to speak, Mr. Cai's father immediately interjected, "Mr. Cai will accompany you today. Don't even think about running away. You know the consequences."
A single sentence sentenced Cai Yang to death, and indeed, he did intend to run away, but upon hearing the words "Old Cai," he immediately became obedient.
This grandfather could have returned at any other time, but he just had to come back at this moment. Isn't he intentionally trying to embarrass him?
"Grandpa is going to eat too?" Cai Yang persisted, double-checking once again.
Mr. Cai nodded firmly and said, "Although we don't want to, this is true. Get ready, Du Jia wants to meet at Shuiyun Pavilion at 11 o'clock. It's already 10 o'clock now, which means we need to get ready to leave."
"!!!"
Suddenly, I really want to go to America. What should I do? He really doesn't want to go to lunch today.
"Stop struggling. Hurry up and tidy yourself up. Once you're done, we should leave." Mom Cai delivered another stab with the knife, forcefully piercing Cai Yang's heart.
Cai Yang endured for a while, and after struggling several times, he went back to his room to change his clothes.
Old man Cai is coming back. If he dares to play any tricks, he can forget about staying alive. Also, he must regain his heroic image in front of Du Ming!
Otherwise, if it were to happen, I would definitely be looked down upon for being pressed on the bed!
When Cai Yang thought about Du Ming being in bed, he hesitated. He didn't pay much attention to Du Ming yesterday, but considering his height and physique, it might be quite challenging for him to overpower Du Ming, right?
"Pah pah pah, Cai Yang, what are you thinking? You should use the courage of a man to overpower him! After all, he has a hidden illness!"
With this thought, Cai Yang regained some confidence and changed into a neatly tailored suit.
Dressed in a suit, Cai Yang exuded the aura of a successful person. His straight trousers accentuated his perfect leg shape, and the white shirt made his face appear even whiter. Cai Yang took the bottles and jars on the table and applied some on himself, nodding in satisfaction as he looked at his reflection in the mirror.
"Very good, just like that!"
When Cai Yang came downstairs, he no longer had the panic he had just now. At this moment, he had a big smile on his face, making Cai's father and mother couldn't help but be suspicious.
Why did he look like he was about to die just now, but now he seems perfectly fine in the blink of an eye? Is this really their son? Why does he seem a bit different now?
"What's wrong? Is your son not feeling well?" Cai Yang also glanced at his own appearance.
"No, it's fine. My son is very handsome! You won't find anyone more handsome than my son." Mr. Cai regained his senses and continued with a string of compliments.
Cai Yang felt delighted after hearing it in his heart: "Definitely, your son will certainly be handsome."
"Alright, let's hurry up and go. If we delay any longer, we will be late. It's not a good thing to be late for the first meeting," Auntie Cai said as she grabbed her husband's arm tightly and pinched him hard.
Caibaba, who was suddenly aware of the pain, looked at his wife beside him, instantly feeling aggrieved in his eyes. However, he dared not speak out in anger. "We should leave for our son's place. As a man, we absolutely cannot be late."
As soon as Cai Yang heard it, he stopped being vain and followed along, heading towards Shuiyun Pavilion.
On the way, Cai Yang was immersed in his own little world. He was full of thoughts: "Today, I must perform well and make sure that Du Ming knows of my bravery. I will never be the one standing below again, no matter what."
And not only that, but also to make Du Ming submit under his own trousers.
Du Ming's appearance is indeed quite pleasing, but his height is a waste, being so tall in that aspect.
But then again, thinking about it, having such a person howling under oneself like this, that sense of vanity is not just ordinary satisfaction.
Thinking about these things, Cai Yang's heart was filled with joy. They hadn't even met yet, but Cai Yang's mind had already begun to plan how to treat Du Ming after they got married. The Dragon Yang Eighteen Forms were not enough; they had to do everything they could think of and accomplish it all. They wanted the Du family to know that marrying Cai Yang was not an easy task.
Cai Yang was thinking optimistically in his heart, and soon Cai Dad drove the car and arrived at Shui Yun Xuan.
After registering at the front desk, the staff led Cai Yang and his family to a private room.
The Du family has not arrived yet, which makes Cai Yang feel somewhat pleased. Moreover, the old man Cai hasn't arrived either, so Cai Yang can swagger for a while longer.
If Old Cai were to come, he wouldn't dare to show off anymore. Caiyang didn't want to experience the ferociousness of the old man firsthand.
"Wasn't our agreement for eleven o'clock?" Cai Yang glanced at the time and realized it was almost eleven, but the person still hadn't arrived.
"Son, don't be in a hurry. You need to have patience and maintain a gentlemanly demeanor."
Well, gentlemanly demeanor, the bearing of a real man. Cai Yang closed his mouth and fidgeted with his phone under the table, sending messages in the WeChat group.
Cai Yang: Brothers, today I met the parents. I must make Du Ming bow down to me and acknowledge my superiority.
