Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

Yuzu shrugged, somewhat helplessly.

For the Xu siblings, their mother was more like an unreliable older sister than a mother.

Although he can be serious occasionally, he is mostly unserious.

She's capable of throwing a tantrum on the sofa, demanding her son cook for her. What kind of moral integrity can you expect from a mother?

For a long time, Xu's father and Xu Lin were the only two normal people in the family.

Hmm... it doesn't seem so normal either.

However, this time, Xu's mother didn't forget about the three of them because she was having too much fun. She was simply trying on clothes and didn't have time to answer the phone. She quickly called Xu Lin back, and the four of them officially met in a women's clothing store on the second floor of the mall.

"Linlin! Youzi! Oh my! Mommy missed you so much!"

As soon as Aunt Xu came over, she hugged the two of them affectionately.

But the problem is...

The white-haired girl squinted at Youzi and the young lady, who were being held in Xu Ma's arms, and was too lazy to even complain.

"that..."

The young lady managed to break free from Xu Ma's embrace and awkwardly pointed to the white-haired, red-eyed girl wearing a mask beside her.

"Auntie, this is Xu Lin."

"I know."

The woman, who looked to be at most in her thirties, with a full and well-proportioned figure and a height of over 1.7 meters, wearing a trendy and cool hip-hop style outfit and a beret, blinked and said with a smile.

"Huh?"

This time, it was Xu Youyue's turn to be stunned.

"I sent the photos to my mom."

Yuzu took a breath and quickly explained.

"She's my son. What does that have to do with me thinking my daughter-in-law is cute and wanting to hug her?"

Xu's mother smiled mischievously, revealing the charm of a mature woman at that moment.

"..."

The young lady suddenly remembered that Yuzu had mentioned that Xu Ma seemed to be bisexual and had a particular fondness for girls, especially young and beautiful ones. She didn't know whether to be happy or scared.

Aunt Xu is truly an amazing person.

The young lady said that this was the first time in her life she had ever seen her mother so young, beautiful, and incredibly stylish.

She is also the mother of two adult children.

Why is it that Xu's mother is 1.7 meters tall, while the tallest of the two sisters, Youzi, is only 162 meters? Are they really related by blood?

"Mom, don't talk nonsense. Don't get involved in my and Youyue's affairs."

Seeing that the young lady's expression was somewhat subtle, Xu Lin quickly stepped in to interrupt Xu Ma's overly affectionate actions and rescued Xu Youyue from her clutches.

"Alright, alright, Mom's too old to interfere in your young people's affairs anymore."

Xu's mother wasn't angry. She just waved her hand and stopped bothering the young lady. Instead, she walked up to Xu Lin and examined him carefully.

"Mom, what are you looking at?"

Xu Lin couldn't take it anymore. Being stared at like that made her feel like her mother was about to say something shocking to her, like her father was about to say something.

"Aside from being a bit short, he's pretty good-looking. No wonder he's my son; he's got three-tenths of my looks when I was young!"

"..."

Xu Lin was speechless.

"Yuzu, is this quirky way of talking really hereditary in your family?"

The young lady next to her secretly poked Yuzu and whispered in her ear.

"Hi."

Yuzu rolled her eyes.

“My mother was purely influenced by my father, and that’s the root of our family’s abnormality.”

"How dare you talk to your father like that, child?"

Xu's mother glared at Youzi, then laughed.

"But what you said makes a lot of sense!"

"It was all that old man's fault after all!"

"Alright, Mom, where else do you think we should go for a stroll?"

Xu Lin couldn't stand it anymore. Who talks about these things when their child is meeting their partner's parents for the first time?

"Girl, what's your name?"

Xu's mother gave Xu Lin a subtle look, as if he were an idiot, before turning to the young lady and asking.

"Auntie, my surname is Xu, and my name is Youyue."

"Youyue, right? Auntie, I'm not very familiar with Yehai. Where do you think would be a good place to buy clothes for my Linlin?"

"Hmm... her words."

The young lady looked at Xu Lin with schadenfreude and pondered carefully.

At this point in the conversation, Xu Lin already sensed that the topic was getting a bit off.

But she couldn't stop it.

After all, the two people who were about to cause trouble were big shots she couldn't afford to offend.

"Auntie, I think the place downstairs is quite suitable. It mainly features a cool girl style, which is perfect for a tomboy like Rin-chan."

"You're reliable! Youyue, you lead the way!"

With a flourish, Xu Ma felt that the young lady was to her liking.

Because she also wanted Xu Lin to wear this type of clothing.

"Okay, Auntie! I know this place well, so don't worry!"

"Girl, you can speak Northeastern dialect too?"

"Of course! I learned it from Rin-chan!"

"Alright, shall we go?"

"Let's go!"

Seeing the two of them quickly getting closer over buying clothes for Xu Lin, Youzi poked Xu Lin with a smug look on her face and said, trying not to laugh.

"So, bro, do you regret it?"

"Painful, yet joyful."

Xu Lin glanced at her, then followed without looking back.

If it can help Xu Ma and the young lady get along well, what does it matter if she changes a few outfits?

Youzi is still too young to understand the reasons behind this.

Over the next few hours, Xu Lin became like a doll, changing outfit after outfit, while Youzi became a miserable bag carrier.

Xu's mother and the young lady chatted enthusiastically about how Xu Lin should dress more appropriately.

In the end, it seemed as if Xu's mother had approved of her. While Xu Lin was changing clothes and Youzi was in the bathroom, she took the young lady's hand and said something meaningful.

"Linlin is just like her father. She looks quite mature, but she's still a child at heart."

“Young Yue, I certainly won’t object to you being with Linlin, but you should also be mentally prepared, after all.”

"This road is not easy to travel."

Chapter 7, Section 299, concerns the adorable Izanagi and Yuzu's annoying mouths.

"After all, this road is not easy to travel."

When Xu Ma said this, her expression was complex, something the young lady couldn't understand.

There are some worries, a few memories, a touch of emotion, and an unspeakable sense of guilt.

Yes, this road is difficult to travel.

Xu Youyue thought to herself calmly.

Her relationship with Xu Lin is not only legally unrecognizable, but they will also never have children.

They have to endure pressure from the mainstream and overcome malice from strangers.

Although homosexuality has become politically correct among many young people, it must be said that they are still a minority in society as a whole.

But they face far more than that.

The absence of a legal marital relationship means that the two people have no protection in terms of joint property, and the lack of children means that the relationship between them is entirely up to them to maintain.

Even couples celebrating their golden wedding anniversary aren't immune to arguments. Even Mr. and Mrs. Xu, who are so loving that their children think they're just showing off their affection, have had their share of heated arguments that almost led to divorce.

In the long decades that followed, the only red thread connecting Xu Youyue and Xu Lin was their mutual love.

When he gets old and loses his looks, will Xu Lin go out and find other girls?

Will we argue? Will we break up?

Could it be... that she doesn't love me anymore?

When there are no costs associated with cheating, how many people's character can withstand the test?

Don't be fooled by the young lady's usual naive and seemingly carefree demeanor.

But she received the same education as the boss who controlled a company.
