In the living room of the Chen residence.

Although the guard carrying the gun has gone to the door, the atmosphere inside the house was still quite tense. No, not only tense, but also strange.

Mayor Chen was sitting on the sofa opposite Lou Ming. He has been in politics for dozens of years, yet he couldn’t calm down at the moment.

Who was Lou Ming? Wasn’t he the youngest son of Minister Lou? Yes, but his identity wasn’t enough to make Mayor Chen so shocked. What shocked him was Lou Ming himself.

Lou Ming, the youngest scientist in China, started designing weapons at the age of fifteen, and became the first weapon design expert in the Ministry of National Defense at the age of eighteen. In only three years, he made China’s combat readiness leap to the top of the world, and had remained there ever since. It was once asserted that as long as Lou Ming was around, China’s position as one of leading powers in the world would remain unshakable.

What did that mean? It meant that the country would pay any cost to protect Lou Ming.

Mayor Chen had no objection to this, but if what the man wanted was his silly young daughter who they finally found and who only returned home for a year…

“Lou Ming, have some fruit,” Mother Chen said and politely handed over the fruit plate in her hand.

“Thank you, Aunt Chen.” Lou Ming took it with both hands. He politely picked up a cut orange from the fruit plate and ate it.

“You…” Mayor Chen frowned and asked in an unkind tone, “How did you and Shishi know each other?”

“Shishi and I have known each other for a long time,” Lou Ming replied with a smile.

“Right. The day Shishi came back, you even had Assistant He drop by to deliver a gift.” Because it was the first day that her daughter was found, Mother Chen remembered it vividly.

Lou Ming smiled and nodded.

“What my father means is, how did you and Shishi see each other again after you came back?” Chen Yang, who bore the same expression as his father, couldn’t help but add.

No way. His mother was already enticed by Lou Ming’s beauty. Then, things could only only rely on them, father and son.

Lou Ming turned his head and looked at Chen Yang. When Chen Yang locked eyes with Lou Ming, he unconsciously straightened his spine, feeling inexplicably nervous.

“When Imperial Capital University opened, I attended the opening ceremony,” Lou Ming returned.

So early?

The people in the living room were talking when a series of hurried footsteps suddenly rang out from the second floor.

Father Chen’s expression drastically changed.

Chen Yang’s eyebrows were knitted.

Mother Chen turned her head and looked at the stairway.

Lou Ming looked overjoyed. He turned toward the stairs along with everyone’s eyes. He knew that this movement was a sign of sleepy Shishi who had woken up.

Sure enough…

Two seconds later, Lou Ming saw Chen Yu running down the stairs in a cartoon pajama with disheveled hair. When Chen Yu saw Lou Ming sitting in the living room at a glance, she broke into a smile, and then rushed into Lou Ming’s arms through the tight encirclement of the Chen family.

“Third Brother, I’m sorry. I overslept.” Chen Yu softly apologized. It sounded more like a pout.

“Did you stay up late last night to review?” Lou Ming noticed Mayor Chen and Big Brother Chen’s unkind gaze and let go of Chen Yu unnoticeably, allowing Shishi to sit beside him.

“No, ah. I couldn’t sleep due to excitement, knowing that you were coming over today. I fell asleep only when it was almost dawn, so I accidentally overslept,” Chen Yu answered honestly.

After hearing Chen Yu’s answer, Lou Ming couldn’t help but smile, and unconsciously held Chen Yu’s hand beside him.

Mayor Chen’s eyelids jumped: Restraint, restrain. Also, do you think I can’t see you secretly holding hands? Do you think I am blind, huh?

Mother Chen: How can you run out to meet your boyfriend without washing your face, combing your hair, or changing your clothes?

Chen Yang couldn’t bear to look directly. With a couple of fake laughter, he stood up and walked over to drag the grinning Chen Yu, and then pressed her in between him and Mother Chen.

“Brother, what are you doing?” Chen Yu looked at Chen Yang in confusion.

“Sit here,” Chen Yang said aggressively.

“It’s too crowded here, I’ll just sit with Third Brother,” Chen Yu said and got up to sit on the other side again.

Mayor Chen felt a little tightness in his chest.

Chen Yang directly pressed her down again. “I’ll go and sit there. You sit here.”

After Chen Yang finished speaking, he took three steps to Lou Ming’s side and sat under Lou Ming’s gaze, which lost its luster.

“Oh, I see.” Chen Yu said with sparkling eyes, “Third Brother, do you know? My elder brother is your fan. He likes you. He said that the weapon you designed is the best in the world.”

“Really?” Lou Ming turned to Chen Yang in amusement.

Chen Yang blushed, and after holding back for a long time, he said, “That was before, not now, you know?” From now on, he decided not to worship Lou Ming ever again.

I treated you as an idol, yet you actually want to fool around with my sister.

“Why?” Chen Yu froze in an instant, then as if she figured something out , she said, “I know. When I marry Third Brother in the future, we’ll be a family, so there is no need to idolize him anymore.”

“What nonsense?” Father Chen and Chen Yang asked excitedly.

Lou Ming sighed. He really wasn’t imagining it. Mayor Chen and Chen Yang didn’t like him.
