A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Song Qiulan was stunned.

Her eyes were fixed on the photo on her phone screen.

The sunlight and shadows from the sycamore trees fell overhead, and the leaves cast tiny dappled patterns on the two people.

The man leaned down to the side, and the woman's hand tugged at his sleeve, her skirt fluttering slightly in the breeze.

The two people pressed their lips together, while a group of people around them stared in disbelief.

At this moment, only the word "romantic" can describe it!

Thinking of this, Song Qiulan suddenly stood up. She changed her angle and compared the photos several times. She confirmed that the girl on the phone and her daughter standing in front of her had the same face.

She knows her daughter's personality best, as her mother.

Let alone kissing a man, she would wash her hands for ages if a man even touched her.

However, to everyone's surprise, she actually kissed a boy in front of so many people!

This is incredible! This is incredible!

Has my daughter finally come to her senses?

She actually understands romance now?

Song Qiulan became instantly excited.

"Not bad, not bad at all... Mom was worried you two wouldn't get it, but it seems I worried too much! Keep up the good work and keep trying!"

She couldn't stop smiling.

I thought there was no progress between the two of them.

Looking at it now, the progress is incredibly fast!

And the young people are really good at it.

Li Xixue's face flushed bright red instantly.

That bastard Chen Yan, why did she post that on her WeChat Moments!

Alright, alright, since Chen Yan is so free, let her work overtime like crazy starting tomorrow!

Song Qiulan became happier and happier as she looked at it, and even began to admire it.

"Wow... my daughter has a good eye for angles. The photo taken from this angle is really nice."

"The younger generation is truly surpassing the older one. Back in the day, your father and I were never this romantic."

"mom!"

"Okay, okay, Mom won't say anymore."

Song Qiulan never suppressed the smile on her lips.

"I knew it! Living together is so efficient. It would be even better if I could have a few grandchildren sometime!"

"mom!"

Li Xixue's eyelids twitched involuntarily.

My own mother is getting more and more greedy.

One isn't enough, do we need to have several?

Song Qiulan ignored her daughter and walked directly towards the kitchen.

"I'll order a few extra dishes tonight to celebrate!"

She walked into the kitchen humming a little tune.

There were three people left in the living room.

Instantly, a murderous aura approached.

Li Xiaochen held his phone, already drenched in sweat, and took a step back.

Li Xixue stared at him expressionlessly.

But he knew very well.

That's a look in his eyes that says he's about to go on a killing spree.

"Mom, let me help you!"

Li Xiaochen prepared to rush into the kitchen.

"stop!"

Li Xiaochen immediately stopped in his tracks at Li Xixue's words: "Sister, listen to my excuse... It was posted by Sister Chen, I just saw it, I'm innocent!"

"Injustice?...or so?"

Li Xixue spoke in a calm tone and took a step forward.

The flatter the surface, the more dangerous it is—this is a lesson Li Xiaochen learned through blood and tears from childhood.

Li Xiaochen instinctively dodged to the side, then sidled up to Lu Yang and grabbed his sleeve.

"Brother-in-law, save me!"

Li Xiaochen clung tightly to Lu Yang's sleeve.

Lu Yang looked around.

There's a tigress in front and a little blondie behind.

What should we do?

These siblings are really a handful.

Lu Yang opened his mouth, about to speak.

Li Xixue looked at him first and said coldly, "He's my brother, you'd better mind your own business."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaochen's mind raced. He immediately leaned halfway out from behind Lu Yang and said to Lu Yang with a serious expression.

"Brother-in-law! I'm your brother too! You're my sister's boyfriend, and I'm her brother, so am I your brother too? A blood brother!"

Lu Yang glanced at the trembling blond man behind him, then at the mature woman in front of him who was already radiating coldness.

Forget it.

He called me brother-in-law after all; I couldn't just stand by and watch him die.

"Alright."

Lu Yang spoke up, looking at Li Xixue: "Well, you can't really blame him for this."

"I told you, mind your own business."

"He's my brother-in-law, I have to take care of him."

"..."

Li Xixue's temples throbbed as she looked at Lu Yang's protective expression.

She discovered a problem.

Since when did I become unable to do anything about what this man says?

In the past, at the company, everyone obeyed her every word.

At home, she could make Li Xiaochen kneel down with just one word.

But when it came to Lu Yang, none of her tricks worked.

You can't beat them in a fight, and you can't win an argument with them.

I'm so angry.

On the contrary, I was often the one being suppressed and bullied by him.

Thinking of this, Li Xixue glanced at Lu Yang with resentment.

Then she turned around, sat on the sofa, crossed her legs, picked up the remote control on the table, and turned on the TV.

Lu Yang could tell that she had compromised.

Although it was against my will.

Li Xiaochen stood behind him, stunned for a moment.

Only after confirming that his older sister was truly not holding a grudge against him did he slowly peek out from behind Lu Yang.

He glanced at Li Xixue, who was watching TV with a cold expression on her face, and then at Lu Yang, who had shielded him from the knife. His admiration was almost overflowing.

"Brother-in-law."

"Um?"

"You're my hero!"

Li Xiaochen's expression was one of utter disbelief.

"My sister has always been extremely competitive. In my nineteen years of life, this is the first time I've ever seen anyone make her admit defeat."

Li Xixue sat on the sofa and slightly raised her eyelids.

Li Xiaochen shivered instantly and took half a step closer to Lu Yang.

Just then, Song Qiulan's voice came from the kitchen: "Xiaochen, come help Mom chop the vegetables!"

Li Xiaochen immediately shifted the blame: "I'm prone to cutting my hands when chopping vegetables, why don't you let my sister do it?"

"Get in here!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaochen dragged herself into the kitchen, turning back to give Lu Yang a pleading look before leaving.

Lu Yang pretended not to see it.

Li Xixue stared at the TV, remote control in hand, changing channels several times, but didn't seem to pay attention to any of them.

"Your brother has a good sense of humor."

Lu Yang sat down at the other end of the sofa and said casually.

"humor?"

Li Xixue tossed the remote control onto the sofa: "Then take him away."

"That won't do, he's your brother."

Li Xixue did not respond.

Intermittent sounds of Song Qiulan's voice and Li Xiaochen's occasional wails could be heard coming from the kitchen.

About thirty minutes later.

The food is served.

Song Qiulan's skills are far superior to her daughter's; the presentation alone is a feast for the eyes.

The dinner table.

Just as Li Xixue was about to grab a chicken leg, Li Xiaochen quickly snatched it away from her:

"Brother-in-law, try this! It's good; I killed it myself!"

"..."

Li Xixue pursed her lips, not angry.

Immediately afterwards, she was about to take a spoon to scoop a bowl of soup.

Song Qiulan grabbed the spoon before she could and then poured Lu Yang a bowl of soup.

"Xiaoyang, drink more soup. You look a little thin."
