Chapter 390 Perfect People Are So Boring
After a while, Meng Jia received a bunch of replies.
[You found a job so quickly? Congratulations!]
[It’s amazing to be able to work at Fu’s]
【Show us your nephew-in-law! 】
Can you arrange a job for me as well?
Today is Meng Jia’s first day working at Fu’s, but she had already announced it to the world in her circle of friends three days ago.
Looking at the praises flooding the comment section, Meng Jia suddenly felt proud and could finally hold her head up high in front of her friends and family.
She straightened her clothes and strode towards the personnel office.
Wen Zhixia still had no idea what Meng Jia was showing off in the family group.
She was busy in the operating room until noon. After coming out, she changed her clothes and went to have lunch with Fan Xiaolin.
When they arrived at the agreed restaurant, Wen Zhixia clearly noticed that Fan Xiaolin was a little worried today.
"What's wrong?" Wen Zhixia guessed that she must have something important to ask her out at noon. "Are you tired from working overtime recently?"
Fan Xiaolin shook her head. "I'm going to take Chen Zhuo home for dinner tonight. I'm really nervous right now."
"Really?!" Wen Zhixia was delighted at first, then became a little worried. "Do your parents know about his situation?"
Ever since she confirmed her relationship with Chen Zhuo, Fan Xiaolin has always planned to bring him home to meet her parents.
Fan Xiaolin's parents are both in the media industry. That generation of media people are more open-minded and are quite open-minded about their children's marriage. They don't care much about the so-called continuation of the family line.
Originally, Fan Xiaolin had planned to pursue her career without getting married or having children, but after meeting Chen Zhuo, she discovered that not only could she pursue her career without getting married or having children, she also had someone to accompany her.
So after much thought, she decided to let Chen Zhuo meet her parents.
The two elders have always been worried that it is too dangerous for her to be an investigative reporter. Now that she has brought a strong and healthy young man home, she also wants to make them feel more at ease.
"But I haven't told them that Chen Zhuo was in jail," Fan Xiaolin replied. "I only told them that Chen Zhuo drives a truck. After we confirm our relationship, he will switch to a civilian job and that I will be the main focus in our lives. He is also completely open to our DINK life. 99% of men on the market can't do these two things, not to mention that he is good-looking."
Wen Zhixia agreed.
She knew that Fan Xiaolin was a person who was very self-reliant. Even though she really liked Chen Zhuo, she would not be blinded by her emotions when it came to practical interests.
"From your perspective, I also think Chen Zhuo is a very suitable choice for you," Wen Zhixia said to her, thinking of this. "As for going to jail, don't worry too much. His motive for killing was self-preservation, not strong subjective malice. If he didn't kill his stepfather, he would have been the one to die. I can understand this, and your parents will definitely understand it even more."
Hearing her comfort, Fan Xiaolin felt much better.
"As expected of a lawyer's daughter, you're so professional at analyzing problems." She said to Wen Zhixia with a relaxed expression, "I think the same as you. I'll take him home tonight to get to know him. Maybe my parents will like him when they see him, and we won't even need to talk to him."
Wen Zhixia encouraged, "Don't worry, even if you have opinions, it doesn't matter. Actual actions will prove everything."
Half past six in the evening.
Fan Xiaolin got off work and came out of the Radio and Television Building.
As usual, Chen Zhuo was waiting downstairs.
He deliberately wore a more formal sportswear today, a khaki top and straight jeans, which made his already slender and tall figure look even more slender and upright, making him stand out in the crowd.
"You're dressed so handsomely, I'm embarrassed to walk with you," Fan Xiaolin walked up to him and patted his shoulder, "I'm afraid my parents will say I seduced a male college student."
Chen Zhuo smiled sheepishly, "No, I can't just be perfunctory when meeting parents. I just bought this dress at the mall this afternoon. Just make sure you like it."
"I always like you," Fan Xiaolin never hesitates to praise. "Don't be nervous. My parents are very easygoing. Just think of it as a casual meal at my house. Don't think too much about it. Just tell me what I ask you. If you don't want to say anything, I'll help you get by."
Chen Zhuo sighed slightly.
He took Fan Xiaolin's hand, looked into her bright and sharp eyes, and said uncomfortably, "I really don't know what I have done to deserve you to do this for me..."
Fan Xiaolin interrupted him and said, "Do you know how good you are?"
Seeing him stunned, Fan Xiaolin continued, "Besides your appearance, do you know how good you are?"
Chen Zhuo lowered his eyes, not daring to meet her gaze.
After all, before this, he had never thought that he would have any intersection with a big reporter like Fan Xiaolin, let alone thought that one day he would be able to talk to her about everything, accompany her through life and death, and miss her if he couldn't hear her voice for a day.
It was like a dream, and there was nothing about me that made me worthy of her.
"I may not be a bad person," Chen Zhuo took a deep breath, "but Xiaolin, I'm not as good as you say. I have many shortcomings..."
"Whether you're good or not is not your decision," Fan Xiaolin interrupted him decisively when she saw him hesitate again. "Not everyone deserves love unless they're perfect. I love you, even if you're quiet, dull, unromantic, and indecisive. I don't want a perfect lover. Perfect people are boring."
Chen Zhuo's face turned red when she said that.
She really knows her own shortcomings very well.
"I'm sorry, I wanted to run away again," Chen Zhuo said with a relieved smile, "Don't worry, when I get to my uncle and aunt's place, I will prove to them that I will take good care of you and stay with you forever."
Fan Xiaolin continued, "Chen Zhuo, but I still want to say it again, I am a DINK. Even if I am with you, I have no plans to have children in the future."
Even though she had mentioned this plan many times, Chen Zhuo still patiently told her, "I'm with you because I like you and want to be with you, not for anything else. And if you don't want a child, I'll be even more worried about you being alone."
Fan Xiaolin's eyes flickered, and she was a little moved.
Chen Zhuo never said a nice word, but no matter what he said or did, he made her feel very at ease.
"Let's go home," she took Chen Zhuo's hand, "you should smile more when you see your parents."
Just as Fan Xiaolin and Chen Zhuo returned home to meet their parents, the Fu Building was still brightly lit.
By six o'clock, most of the people in the company had left.
Only in the Human Resources Office could the sound of argument still be heard:
"Sister Meng, this person's academic qualifications and major do not meet our requirements, so we cannot recruit him."
"But he's handsome! Abilities can be developed, but looks are innate, right?"
