Han Chunmei had been worried that her future son-in-law would look down on Li Juan for having two fathers, never expecting that the other side had worries of their own.
Li Ye had arranged with Bu Qingjun to "bring Little Cao out for a drink in a few days," but several days later, Bu Qingjun sheepishly called Li Ye.
"Hehe, Brother Li Ye, well... our research tasks have been pretty heavy these past few days, so we never got around to what you mentioned. Then this morning... Little Cao's parents suddenly came over from their hometown.
"I talked with Little Cao's parents for a while. They fully supported their son's choice, but they were worried that he wasn't good with words and might not satisfy a family like yours."
Li Ye asked in confusion, "What do you mean, a family like ours? Besides, Little Cao has been seeing my sister for more than half a year. Why are they suddenly looking down on our family now?"
"No, no, it's not that they look down on you. It's... ah, it's all this mouth of mine."
Bu Qingjun said apologetically, "After I asked Little Cao that day, I told him, 'You brat, you've really stepped in dog shit this time.' Who would've thought that after Little Cao told his family, they'd start worrying."
"They're worried my sister has a young lady's temper and will bully their Little Cao in the future, right? Old Bu, just how did you brag about my family?"
The moment Li Ye heard Bu Qingjun hemming and hawing, he knew this old brother had made his family sound like some lofty and influential household. As a result, Little Cao's family was worried that Cao Jianqing would be bullied by Li Juan later on.
It had to be said
