Su Chen felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing his father's voice. "Dad, don't cry. This is a good thing. Your son will be successful in the future, and you and Mom can live a good life with me!"
"Yes! My son will definitely be successful! Mecha are currently hot technology. I just didn't expect my son to be this amazing. I'm happy, Dad's happy!" Su's father said excitedly.
Su's mother handed Su's father a tissue from the side, her own eyes turning red. She said to her son on the phone, "Chenchen, I've never seen your dad so happy. Son, even though Mom doesn't understand, Mom knows you must be amazing!"
"Good boy, you are the pride of me and your father, and the glory of our Old Su Family!"
Hearing his parents' slightly choked voices, Su Chen's nose stung, and he almost shed tears himself.
But this was a happy occasion, so he wouldn't cry!
A grown man wouldn't shed tears so easily~
"Son, with such a good job, your mother and I are completely at ease. You must work hard at the Dragon Science Institute and Chaofan Group. I believe in my son's abilities. Perhaps in the future, our family will have a hero who shocks the nation, someone who can design real mecha!" Su's father clenched his fist, his eyes filled with beautiful visions of the future.
Su Chen chuckled on the phone, "Dad, your vision is too limited~ Your son might be the first to design a mecha and become a hero who shocks the world~"
"Heh heh~ You silly boy, you're quite proud! But Mom and Dad believe in you. In our hearts, you're the best!"
Su's mother wiped her tears and suddenly remembered something important. She said tentatively, "Son, now that your job is settled, shouldn't you also consider family matters?"
"Actually, your mom and dad are calling you so late because Aunt Chen just called us. She saw you posting your children's awards on your social media. Son, what's going on? Whose children are they?" Su's mother asked.
Of course, she hoped they were her son's children, but she felt it was too big a deal to guess wildly.
Su Chen understood immediately upon hearing this.
No wonder his parents were calling so late. They had just found out about him posting the children's awards on his social media!
If the old couple didn't get an answer tonight, they probably wouldn't be able to sleep.
Su Chen had originally planned to wait until after his graduation ceremony to bring Yan Bingxue and the children home to surprise his parents in person. But since his parents already knew, there was no need to hide it any longer.
He said directly, "Dad, Mom, those aren't other people's children. They are your son's! They are also your grandchildren!"
"What?" Su's mother was shocked on the spot.
Su's father reacted and quickly snatched the phone to ask, "Son, what's going on? When did you have children? Grandchildren, does that mean there are two?"
His voice couldn't hide his surprise, and Su Chen felt happy too.
"Yes~ I have children, a boy and a girl, Dragon-Phoenix twins!"
Su's father and Su's mother were silent for a long time. The old couple on the other end of the phone looked at each other, their eyes filled only with shock.
"Dad? Mom?"
"Yes, yes~ Son, Mom is here! Dad and Mom are both here!"
"We... we are just too surprised, so happy we can't speak! Son, when did these... these grandchildren come about? You child, why didn't you tell us about such a big thing? How old are the children now? How did they get awards?"
Su's mother thought that if Su Chen really had children, they would probably still be in his daughter-in-law's womb. So, knowing that Su Chen's social media post was about awards, she really didn't dare to think they were her son's children.
Su Chen explained, "Dad, Mom, it's a long story, but the children are indeed mine. Both children are three years old. I only found out recently. This matter is a bit sudden, and I didn't know how to tell you. I originally planned to bring them back later to tell you in person."
Su's mother said happily, "You silly son, what's so hard to say about this? If you have children, your dad and I are overjoyed! Both children are three years old, so has the daughter-in-law raised them alone all these years?"
"En," Su Chen replied.
Su's mother sighed softly, "Son, you haven't raised children, you don't know how hard it is to raise one child, let alone Dragon-Phoenix twins. Raising two at once not only costs a lot of money but also takes a lot of time and energy. Your daughter-in-law must have suffered a lot. You child, you can't treat her poorly."
While happy, Su's mother couldn't help but feel a little sorry for the mother of the two babies.
She must have suffered a lot raising two children alone for the past three years.
Thinking of Yan Bingxue, Su Chen also felt touched and concerned. He said earnestly, "Mom, I understand. That's why I married her immediately after meeting her. We've already registered our marriage!"
"Really? Son, you should have told us about such a big thing earlier. Just registering the marriage isn't enough; the wedding can't be sloppy either. Your daughter-in-law must have suffered over the past three years, and our family can't treat her unfairly just because the children are older!"
"En, I understand, don't worry, Mom~ I will definitely treat your daughter-in-law well~ I originally planned to bring the whole family back to see you after I finished with my graduation matters."
"Mhm mhm mhm, you must bring them back. We also need to prepare gifts for our daughter-in-law and grandchildren!" Su's mother said happily.
Su's father, who had finally recovered, was smiling from ear to ear.
"Okay, then we'll go back together. It's getting late, Mom. You and Dad should get some sleep. I need to sleep too, I have work tomorrow. Goodnight~"
After Su Chen hung up the phone, Su's father and Su's mother were too excited to sleep.
Su's mother happily paced around the house, constantly saying.
"That's great, Old Su, this is truly great!"
"Today is such a good day. Not only does our son have a good job, but he also has a daughter-in-law and two children. I'm so happy I don't know what to say!"
Su's father took out some wine from the cabinet and brought out the leftover peanuts from the evening. He said happily, "Wife, let's have a drink!"
"You old man, why are you drinking when you've already had dinner?" Su's mother said with a playful scold.
Su's father said, "I'm happy! The major events of our son getting married and establishing his career are all resolved at once. How can I not be happy? And the children are Dragon-Phoenix twins. Our son and daughter-in-law are too good at having children!"
"Nonsense, having Dragon-Phoenix twins is determined by genes. The fact that our family has this gene is all thanks to you..." Su's mother's voice suddenly stopped here.
Su's father also froze for a moment. They thought of the same thing and tacitly avoided the topic. Su's father continued, "Wife, how much savings do we have left? Our son and daughter-in-law have registered their marriage, and now they have good jobs and two children. I estimate they'll be having a wedding soon, and we'll need to prepare a new house for them then."
