Xuan Mu might be okay with it, but Bing Shi was having enough, “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Tan. My name is Bing Shi. May I ask what type of girl you chose for Xuan Mu?”

“Hmpf! She is from a respectable military family. She is studying law in a prestigious school in France. But what would a gold digger like you, who does nothing all day, know?” They looked at her expensive, limited edition clothes, her exquisite hairstyle, and makeup, which was probably coming from their son’s pocket.

One day, they got lots of requests from influential people, offering their daughters for their son. Xuan Mu’s parents weren’t clueless about his character. They were sure that he knew nothing about making good choices in life, including women. Could someone blame them for thinking like that? Just look at him!

Without mentioning her achievements, Bing Shi shook her head and blinked her eyes unbelievingly, “Xuan Mu, your parents found you, someone, better than me. Does it mean that our seven years of dating will go to naught?”

.....

Silence...

“What?!” His parents looked at Bing Shi in shock. Xuan Mu was a very secretive person, so they couldn’t probe into him too deeply, but did they hear right? Seven years?! The girls he had been talking to in the past were the same girl all this time? It was hard to believe because that boy acted broken as if he was going through a crushing breakup, at least every week or month.

“Apologies for the long wait,” Bing Shi’s mother called out as she opened the door wider after she opened it slightly a while ago, her father followed behind, arriving right on time to give his parents another shock, “We met our old friend in the hallways, and our chat lasted for longer than we expected.” She dragged her next words very slowly, “We hope you haven’t started celebrating our kids’ success without us yet.”

Xuan Mu’s parents stood up abruptly.

Bing Shi’s father greeted his parents with a business smile. He and his wife had been eavesdropping behind the doors for a while, and they didn’t reserve this place just for them to hear their daughter being called a gold digger, “I suppose you are Mr. Tan and Mrs. Tan, Xuan Mu’s parents.”

He gave them a business card and introduced his family, “My name is Wu Bing Yun, CEO, and founder of Wu Property Group. This is my wife Wu Qiu Lin, The vice-chairman, and co-founder. Finally, my daughter Wu Bing Shi, the sole heiress of Wu Property Group.”

Bing Shi’s parents were not merely rich. They were extremely wealthy. With hard work, it took her parents a few decades to become self-made billionaires. That’s why her parents and her brothers would occasionally make fun of Xuan Mu instead of sucking up to him. They were simply not afraid of offending him nor did they crave his wealth.

Mr. and Mrs. Wu were truly successful business people, who owned their own jet to travel around the world for their business meetings. They were usually the ones who had to pay for everything, so having someone splurge on them once in a while was highly appreciated. They enjoyed this short trip a whole lot and had already sent the video of Mr. Wu jumping from an aircraft to a few of their close friends...to brag as usual.

When Mr. Tan received the business card, his hands shook in fear, and his knees almost collapsed. CEO of the Wu Property Group!? They owned shopping malls and real estate, all around the country. If he angered this group, his brother would kick him out of the company!

Wait! Did he say his daughter was Wu Bing Shi? That...Wu Bing Shi?! They looked at the sophisticated young lady before them, who responded to his wide-opened mouth with a polite smile.

That mysterious daughter who everyone wanted as their daughter-in-law?! That ‘perfect’ girl...was caught by their useless son?!

Bing Shi’s parents didn’t believe Xuan Mu would last with their daughter for long and had already thought of a future where their daughter would be stood up. By building her reputation and praising her here and there, they hoped he would think twice about whether it was worth cheating on her or not! And if he really did, once Bing Shi returned back to the country, she could choose whoever she wanted!

Bing Shi put her gift bag on the table, “This is a farewell gift from me. Please, accept it as a thank you for giving birth to Xuan Mu.” She grabbed Xuan Mu’s hand, ready to leave, but her strength was nonexistent as she couldn’t even budge with him. She looked at the man who didn’t move an inch as if asking what he was waiting for.

The warmth of Xuan Mu’s beating heart made its way to his eyes, a tender moment that just couldn’t wait until they were alone. It was a burst of love that wanted to be expressed like a storm, not caring if it soaked through the chill of her skin, “What are you doing?”

“Kidnapping you,” Bing Shi smiled with teary eyes, her words were actually meant to praise his rain summoning skills and that she wanted him for herself only, “They don’t deserve a son like you, nor a daughter like me.”

When they reached the door, Bing Shi took a hold of the handle, calling out to her flabbergasted parents, “Dad, mom, they tried to break my relationship with Xuan Mu. I can’t stay with them any longer, so will it be alright if I go ahead and wait in the room opposite us?”

After their affirmation, she walked through the door, pulling along the tall man who followed her obediently, “After you have a nice chat together, be sure to join us there. Bye-bye.”

‘Why would I give up on my parents? They can be of great use, sometimes.’

‘Am I a bad person?’

‘I still care about them. After all, I saved their relationship, didn’t I?’

Closing the door behind him, Xuan Mu interlocked their fingers, revealing his smitten smile, “Bing Shi, are you thinking about bad things again?”

Bing Shi turned around to check if he really closed it, “Xuan Mu, do you think I’m a green tea B-word?”

“...” Should he tell her the truth? Without him, her trying to act sad and heartbroken would have completely failed, “No, You are my green tea B-ing Shi.”

“Ooooh.”
