The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

Chapter 5: Good Heavens! My Son Brought a Girl Home!

Qi Yun walked with Lian Qingxue towards his residential area. His family was ordinary, with both parents working in state-owned factories. They lived in an old residential area provided by the factory. Many of the factorys old employees lived around.

A lot of them recognized Qi Yun. As Lian Qingxue walked along, she felt something was off. Why were people staring at her? Muted conversations of the adults around reached her ears.

Isnt that the kid from the Qi family? Whos the girl?

Yes, its him, Qi Yun. He brought her home. Who else could it be?

Qi Yun has a girlfriend now! Lets go and tell his mom!

Not long after, Qi Yuns mother received a shocking news.

Good heavens! My son brought a girlfriend home!

What do I do? Im not prepared for this! Qis mom was very nervous.

Qis dad, however, was sitting on the sofa, looking very calm. Whats there to worry about? Its normal for boys his age to have a girlfriend.

But its not normal! Hes in his final year of high school!

Qis mom was not against her son having a girlfriend, but the timing was critical. She was anxious.

Its fine. I also had a girlfriend when I was in high school. Nothing major will happen. Qis dad replied without lifting his head.

Suddenly, he felt a change in the atmosphere. Lifting his head, he saw Qis mom smiling at him. You had such an interesting story from high school that I didnt know about?

I dont have time to deal with you now! I need to change my clothes!

As Qi Yun entered his home and opened the door, he saw his mom sitting on the sofa, her gaze like a spotlight, instantly directed towards Lian Qingxue.

At first glance, Qis mom was not pleased. The girls clothes were old and tattered, indicating a poor family background. She seemed shy and timid. But she didnt show any disapproval.

Qi Yun, is this your classmate?

Yes, shes the tutor Ive invited home.

Tutor?

Qis mom was a bit confused.

Qis dad lifted his head, looking deeply at his son. This kid knows how to play!

If you wanted to hire a tutor, why didnt you tell us? We could have helped you find one!

Qis mom was supportive of her sons ambition.

Ive already found one, havent I?

Qis parents were still skeptical, after all, hiring a female classmate as a tutor seemed suspicious.

As Qi Yun spoke to his mom, Lian Qingxue tugged at his clothes from behind.

Ive memorized the way to your house. Ill go home first! She was very sensitive to gazes and could tell that Qi Yuns mom didnt really like her, so she couldnt help but want to run.

Why are you leaving? Since youre my tutor now, I should at least treat you to dinner!

Qi Yun held onto Lian Qingxue and brought her to the dining table.

At the table, Qis mom took the opportunity to learn more about Lian Qingxue.

Child, what do your parents do?

Lian Qingxue was quietly eating her rice, not touching the dishes. Upon hearing the question, she paused.

I dont have parents.

Qis mom was taken aback. Then you

I grew up in an orphanage.

When Qis mom saw Lian Qingxues old school uniform, her heart ached a little.

Thats when Qi Yun spoke up, Lian Qingxue is one of the top students in our class! Why else would I have invited her over?

Upon hearing this, any vague dissatisfaction Qis mom felt towards Lian Qingxue immediately melted away.

This child! Even without any family, shes still so driven!

Seeing that Lian Qingxue was only eating rice and not the dishes, she felt even more sympathy. Consider this your home when youre here. Come, have a drumstick!

Qi Yun watched helplessly as his mom transferred the drumstick from his plate to Lian Qingxues.

???

Something seemed off.

As his mom continued to serve Lian Qingxue dishes until her bowl was full, Qi Yun felt a bit puzzled.

He didnt receive this kind of treatment, did he?

Seeing Qi Yuns expression, Qis dad sighed softly.

Do you remember the photos of you in a dress when you were little?

Yes, they are my dark history.

When you werent born, your mom was hoping for a daughter and bought many dresses, but then

Then I came?

Should I apologize?

Looking at Qis mom treating Lian Qingxue more and more intimately, with an increasingly sympathetic look, Qi Yun felt that if this was a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, it seemed to be going incredibly well.

That might not be so bad, right?

No, my relationship with Lian Qingxue is purely financial!

Love should not defile it!

Upon hearing their conversation, Qis mom immediately interjected, Exactly! Even if you dont date this brat, you should come by often! Consider me your mother! Ive always wanted a daughter!

Qi Yun quickly clarified, Mom, were really not dating!

Sure! Qis mom and dad responded in unison.
