"I know." Yu Jia said, driving her BMW to the address Zhang Wen Zhong had given her. Along the way, she couldn't help but sneak a peek at Zhang's outfit and the large bag he had placed by his feet, and she smiled mischievously as she asked, "Mr. Zhang, with your formal attire and all these gifts, you're not planning on visiting your girlfriend's parents to meet your future in-laws, are you?"
"I don't even have a girlfriend, where did the father-in-law and mother-in-law come from? I'm just helping out a friend." Zhang Wen Zhong didn't hide anything from You Jia, smiling as he told him about Lin Zi Man's request.
"It turned out to be like this." After listening to Zhang Wen's narration, You Jia felt a sense of sympathy for Lin Ziman's experience. Her experience was very similar to Lin Ziman's. The only difference was that Lin Ziman was forced by her mother to go on blind dates, while she was forced by her parents to marry someone she disliked.
"You now look like a managerial class person." Yu Jia glanced at Zhang Wen Zhong with the corner of her eye, pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "But I've never seen any managerial class person take a crowded bus to visit their girlfriend's family."
Zhang Wen-zhong smiled wryly and shrugged: "What can I do? As a small school doctor like me, wanting to have a car is simply a fantasy. At that time, I can only lie, maybe I can say the car had an accident and was sent to the 4S store for repair."
"Do you think Lin Ziman's parents will believe it?" Yu Jia asked.
"Who knows?" Zhang Wenzhong said with a bitter smile.
"You can drive?"
"Yes." Zhang Wen Zhong first nodded in response, then asked: "Why ask this?"
You Jia patted the steering wheel with her right hand and said: "Why don't I lend you this car for a night to help you save face?"
"This car must be very expensive, right?" Zhang Wen Zhong knew how to drive a car, but he didn't know much about cars. He only knew that BMW was a luxury sedan and had no idea what the specific model or price of this car was. He turned his head to look at You Jia and asked, "Aren't you afraid I'll borrow it and not return it?"
"What's there to be afraid of? If you dare not return it, I'll report to the police and catch you. Anyway, I also know your work address, can't you still run away?" Yu Jia said with a straight face, but as soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. "I was just joking with you, although we haven't known each other for long, but I still trust your character, so take this car and use it today, tomorrow I'll come to your hospital to find you and get the car back."
Zhang Wen Zhong didn't stand on ceremony with her either, smiling and nodding: "Alright, since that's the case, I won't be polite either. I'll borrow this car for one night, and tomorrow I'll help you fill up the gas."
"It doesn't matter whether I fill up the gas or not." Yu Jia smiled and said, "Then I'll come over tomorrow at noon to pick up the car. It just so happens that we can take you along to attend my grandfather's birthday banquet."
"Good." Zhang Wenzhong smiled and nodded in response.
More than 20 minutes later, Yu Jia stopped the car in front of the gate of Yongcui Huating community and got out of the car with his own bag, letting Zhang Wenzhong take over the driver's seat.
Zhang Wen-zhong, who had shifted to the driver's seat, looked at You Jia standing outside the car door and asked: "You gave me the car, what will you do then?"
"You can just take a taxi, right? Alright, you go ahead, I'm sure Dr. Lin is about to be driven mad by now." She could deeply empathize with Lin Ziman's current mood.
Zhang Wenzhong couldn't help but smile as he recalled Lin Ziman's tone of voice when she called him earlier.
After saying goodbye to Yu Jia, Zhang Wen Zhong drove his BMW into the Yung Tsui Huatian and parked in the parking space opposite Lin Zi Man's balcony.
Getting off the BMW, Zhang Wen Zhong casually put the car key in his pocket and carried that big bag of gifts, walking towards Lin Zi Man's house.
Standing in front of Lin Zeman's house, Zhang Wenzhong raised his hand and knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly, and Lin Ziman appeared in the doorway with a worried look on her face. When she saw that it was Zhang Wenzhong standing outside, the worry on her face dissipated somewhat, and she complained softly: "Why did you come so late?"
Zhang Wenzhong smiled and said: "From the time you called to when I rushed to your home, it only took about 20 minutes, which is already quite fast."
"Never mind, don't mention it. Hurry up and come in, I'm about to be driven mad by that show-off." Lin Ziman hastily stepped aside and ushered Zhang Wenzhong into the house, shouting towards the interior: "Dad, Mom, Wenzhong has arrived, just like I told you before." At the same time, she also hooked her hand around Zhang Wenzhong's elbow, putting on a warm and intimate appearance.
Lin Ziman's father was sitting in the living room at this moment, a man nearing fifty with a slightly receding hairline. Seeing Zhang Wenzhong suddenly appear, he couldn't help but stare blankly for a moment. Then, seeing his own daughter and Zhang Wenzhong seemingly very intimate, the expression on his face became somewhat strange.
"Which Wen Zhong?" Lin Ziman's mother walked out of the kitchen, still with an apron tied around her waist. When she saw her own daughter and Zhang Wen Zhong's 'intimate' appearance, she was also stunned.
Seeing the two elders' reaction, Zhang Wen Zhong was slightly stunned, then reacted and leaned into Lin Zi Man's ear, saying softly: "How come you didn't tell your parents that I'm coming today?"
Lin Ziyu sneered and said in a low voice: "No, I just want to give them a surprise!"
"It's surprising indeed, but I haven't seen any joy yet," Zhang Wenzhong said in a low voice.
Originally intended to entertain the blind date arranged for her daughter, but unexpectedly, at this moment, the boyfriend who had recently been in contact with her daughter suddenly appeared...
Lin's father sat on the sofa, looked at Zhang WenZhong who was being held by Lin ZiMan, then looked at Wei Yue who was sitting next to him with a shocked expression. He suddenly felt his head start to ache, rubbed his temples and got up from the sofa, walked over to Lin's mother and pulled her into the kitchen.
Lin Ziman, at this time, took Zhang Wenzhong's arm and walked to the sofa directly opposite Wei Yue, where she sat down. Her actions had a somewhat provocative meaning: I already have a boyfriend, so you'd better leave quickly if you know what's good for you.
Wei Yue was around thirty years old, looking rather cultured and refined, with a side parting in his hair and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses perched on the bridge of his nose. His appearance was somewhat reminiscent of Felix Wong, an actor often seen in Stephen Chow's films (the one who carried a wrench in Shaolin Soccer).
"Zi Man, aren't you going to introduce me to this person?" Wei Yue's expression was somewhat awkward and also a bit gloomy at the same time. He adjusted the glasses on his nose bridge, and a fierce and sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
"This is my boyfriend Zhang Wen Zhong!" Lin Zi Man replied loudly, without noticing the flicker of Wei Yue's eyes.
"He hasn't gotten our approval, your father's and mine, so he can't be considered your boyfriend." Lin's mother poked her head out of the kitchen, staring at Lin Ziman: "Let go of his hand!"
Lin Zi suddenly let go of Zhang Wen's hand and looked displeased.
