"Is Jesee hugging a boy? When Monea whispered these words on the phone, his emotions were so complicated that he seemed to have knocked over a five spice bottle.
He originally thought that he and his wife Bai Ji's daughter Jesee could at least stay in their naive single state for a few more years, enjoying the youth and freedom of campus, but reality dealt him a severe blow.
At that moment, various thoughts flooded in like a tide, including satisfaction with my daughter's growth, vague worries about unknown future interpersonal relationships, and sadness about the disappearance of the "little cotton jacket" that had stuck to me in the past.
Bai Ji on the other end of the phone was momentarily stunned when she heard her husband's words.
Her eyes widened in an instant, filled with shock and disbelief.
Immediately, a hint of doubt floated up in my heart, 'Really, are you sure?' Although I remained calm on the surface, deep down inside, there were tumultuous waves.
Her mind quickly flashed back to the scene of taking Jesee to the mall in the past.
At that time, the tall and muscular men outside the gym couldn't help but take a few more glances at her mother, but what about Jesee? As if completely ignoring these, with empty eyes and no ripples.
Furthermore, in these years, Bai Ji has never captured the small details of her daughter's love with the opposite sex, not even a hint of ambiguous sparks have ever flashed.
This made her secretly worried whether her daughter had no feelings for the opposite sex or if she had a different sexual orientation?
So, she always earnestly urged Jesee to start dating, worried that she would miss the normal emotional trajectory.
If Jesee knew that her mother kept talking about her relationship every day because of this reason, she would definitely shout out that she was wrongly accused. She didn't even think about that at the time, she just wasn't interested in those muscular men.
Monea listened to his wife's questioning, and her original anger slightly subsided, but the remaining anger remained.
He could understand his wife's suspicion, after all, Jesee's past performance was indeed unpredictable.
But this time, he witnessed it with his own eyes, seeing Jesee and the boy holding each other, the scene nailed to his retina like a nail, unforgettable.
He felt it was necessary to let his wife know and let the family face their daughter's love well.
On the other end of the phone, although Bai Ji asked cautiously, she had already started to calculate in her heart that if her daughter really fell in love, it would also be something to be happy about.
She made an effort to calm her emotions and began to communicate details with her husband seriously, hoping to clarify the matter and come up with a solution.
On the other end of the phone, Bai Ji's shock gradually turned into complex emotions.
She looked at the gradually cooling food in front of her, absentmindedly put down the spatula, and slowly moved to the sofa to sit down.
In my mind, the various performances of Jesee in the past were intertwined with the situation just described by her husband, creating a chaotic mess.
She began to ponder whether she had always viewed her daughter with the same old eyes?
Times are changing, and young people's ways of expressing themselves may have long been different from the past.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, wanting to dig up more details from her husband's mouth to sort out this mess.
On the other side, Jesee was lounging on the sofa in her room, wearing headphones and listening to music, with her legs casually resting on the coffee table, enjoying a rare moment of solitude.
Her phone suddenly shook, and she took off her earphones. She saw a message from her father, which said she had something to tell her mother and wanted to talk to her.
Her heart skipped a beat, with a sense of foreboding, but she still obediently dialed the phone. Daughter, does your dad say you have a boyfriend? Is that true? "Mother Bai Ji's voice came over the phone with an indescribable excitement.
Jesee's face instantly flushed, like a sunset dyed red by the setting sun. She shyly bit her lower lip and softly replied, "Oh, it's not that kind of relationship yet." She cursed her father for being troublesome in her heart, so why did she just poke things at her mother?
You know, she hasn't officially confirmed her relationship with that boy yet, and even holding hands feels awkward, let alone being called boyfriend.
Upon hearing these words, Bai Ji's eyes lit up in an instant, as excited as if she had found a treasure: "There's no objection, it seems like we're really going to date." She was convinced in her heart that her daughter Jesee inherited her excellent genes, with outstanding appearance and kind personality. No man in the world could refuse her?
This love must have come to an end steadily.
Jesee widened her eyes in anger, puffed up her cheeks, and retorted with a hint of arrogance, "Hmph, I don't necessarily have to be in a relationship!" But as soon as she spoke, she felt nervous.
She secretly glanced at her phone screen, which still had chat records with Vsa. The ambiguous atmosphere was hard for her to ignore.
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. She simply threw her phone onto the sofa, holding her head in both hands, trying to sort out her thoughts.
Bai Ji couldn't help but hear her daughter's cautious thoughts. She curled the corners of her mouth and smiled proudly, "Okay, bring someone over this Sunday for me to see. Don't be fooled by any bad boy." Jesee's fragile heart suddenly contracted, and she looked up at the ceiling, her eyes wandering. See your mother on Sunday? We need to discuss this with Vsa first.
She picked up her phone again, clicked on the chat box with Vsa, and her fingers danced quickly on the screen. First, she wrote "Meet my mom with me this Sunday," but immediately deleted it. This sentence is too direct. What if Vsa gets scared? She pondered for a while, then typed 'Are you available this Sunday?' again before pressing send.
Here, Vsa received the message and the mobile system immediately displayed a prompt: "Please choose one of the following three options for the host." He quickly scanned the options:
(1: There is no time.)
(2: Why do you call me when you have time?)
(3:If it were you, I would have time.)
Vsa stared at the third option with wide eyes, in awe. This kind of answer is simply amazing, with both high emotional intelligence and a hint of romance, making him yearn for it. It seems that he still needs to study hard in emotional expression.
He hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, selected the third option, and replied, "If it were you, you would have time." Jesee was lying on the bed, blushing cheeks and staring fixedly at the phone screen.
When she saw Vsa's reply, her heart raced instantly, as if she had been bumped by a deer, and her face turned red.
She pretended to be expressionless, but after a few seconds, she couldn't help but fall onto the bed, covering her face with both hands and rolling excitedly on the bed.
She muttered in her mouth, 'Ah! How could he be so good! Ah, no, we can't just overthink anymore.' She tried to calm her emotions, but her pounding heart didn't listen and remained immersed in Vsa's sweet reply.
After calming down a little, she sat up again, her fingers hanging on the keyboard, pondered for a moment, and typed a line of text: "My dad and mom said, so my mom wants to see you on Sunday." At the same time, Vsa received the message and immediately became nervous, her brain racing.
He quickly called the system in his mind: "System asking for help, how should I answer." The system responded slowly: "No need to think about it, it must be what you think, what are you afraid of? I'm here." Vsa took a deep breath, cheered himself up, and replied: "Okay, let's make an appointment to meet on Sunday." He was looking forward to the meeting on Sunday, but also a little nervous, not knowing what his future mother-in-law would be like.
Bai Ji on the other end of the phone nodded in satisfaction upon hearing her daughter's reply. She began to plan her meeting on Sunday in her mind, pondering what food to prepare to show her enthusiasm and relax her future son-in-law.
She has even started fantasizing about Jesee bringing Vsa home and the happy scene of the whole family sitting together. Bai Ji thinks that this may be a beautiful new beginning for her daughter's growth journey.
