Chapter 229 Forced to Meet Parents
Morax was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then raised his eyes and met the gaze of the anxious Yuan Zhuoyue, with just the right amount of confusion and helplessness revealed on his face.
It seemed that he didn't know how to deal with such a situation, although he still didn't say a word.
But that look seemed to be asking, what should I do?
Yuan Zhuoyue was filled with panic at this time, and didn't care whether Morax was really at a loss or just pretending to be confused.
He just whispered in a hurry, "Hurry up and answer the phone!"
Morax nodded slightly, and the next moment his fingertips pressed on the screen. With just a slight swipe, he skillfully answered the call.
Then, Ms. Shu Hanmei's powerful voice came from the speaker of the mobile phone: "Open the door, daughter. Your father and I are back!"
Yuan Zhuoyue had fallen silent at this time, and waved at Morax, but Morax did not move for a long time.
She had no choice but to open her mouth and point at the door of her house, not caring whether Morax could understand her or not. She just kept gesticulating.
Signal to Morax to open the door quickly!
After doing all this, he tiptoed and went straight to his room with great stealthiness.
He closed the door neatly and carefully, trying his best to close it without making any noise.
He just put his hand on the locked bolt, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave up and locked the door from the inside.
After Yuan Zhuoyue ran into the room, Morax's previous slightly confused and helpless expression disappeared.
Then suddenly, it disappeared completely.
At this time, he had stood up and stepped into the corridor. When he looked up, he could see the closed dark door.
His gaze was distant, as if he could see the couple standing hand in hand outside the closed door through the closed door.
His eyes were melancholy and full of hidden thoughts, but in the end he just stood there quietly and let out a silent sigh.
Then, Morax followed the instructions given by Yuan Zhuoyue without much hesitation, walked forward and opened the locked door.
The first person I saw was a middle-aged woman who was elegantly dressed, had delicate makeup on her face, and wore earrings and a necklace as embellishments. There were already fine lines between the corners of her eyebrows and eyes.
When she saw the door open, she walked in first, carrying a few not-so-big canvas packages in her hands and put them on the shoe cabinet.
He just sat on the soft stool next to him to rest his feet, and it seemed that he had no intention of taking off his shoes and entering the house.
A middle-aged man wearing a dark trench coat, who looked a little fat but had thick hair, also walked in right after him.
He was dragging two suitcases behind him. After he carried the smaller and brighter-colored one into the door, he also placed it next to the shoe cabinet.
Then he sat down next to his wife on the leather-covered stool near the door.
The remaining suitcase was placed outside the door, and it seemed that there was no intention to bring it in.
Yuan Zhuoyue, who was hiding in the room, heard footsteps before Morax opened the door, and walked towards the direction of his own front door.
He immediately used the method he had figured out, but it was still very crude and could be easily exploited by demons and monsters with extraordinary powers, or even human monks.
The sound transmission spell that intercepted the content of the voice transmission quietly conveyed the message to Morax: "Wait a moment... Tsk, forget it. You don't have to call them mom and dad. Just answer whatever they call you. If there is any problem and you can't respond, just keep silent and don't talk."
Ms. Shu Hanmei, who was sitting on the bench at the door and resting for a while, looked at her daughter who was standing in front of her motionless, as if silence was golden.
He pointed to the packages that had just been brought in and placed on the shoe cabinet, as well as the small suitcase next to the shoe cabinet.
Then he said, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Go and take a look. Is there anything you like? These are all things I brought back from abroad. You can keep whatever you like. As for the rest, share them with your friends and colleagues."
Although Morax vaguely remembered that Yuan Zhuoyue got along relatively well with her parents, her parents never seemed to take a tough stance and give her any unquestionable instructions as parents.
It can be said that he is extremely indulgent and caring towards Yuan Zhuoyue, and basically acts according to her ideas.
This may also be because her parents almost lost their children twice, which made them no longer demand anything else from their children except that they were physically and mentally healthy.
These are the parts of Gen Zhuoyue's past that Morax learned after reaching such an end, when everything was relatively stable.
But even if he knew this was the situation, Morax still didn't know how Yuan Zhuoyue got along with his parents in private.
So now, in response to Ms. Shu Hanmei's words, he could only nod slightly and respond, "Okay."
Although his daughter did not come up to him and give him a bear hug and call him "Mommy" the first time they met.
He also tried to pluck the things in her hands to see what new and interesting things she had gained after this journey, feeling a little strange.
But Ms. Shu Hanmei did not worry too much, because it was still early in the morning, just a hazy morning.
When my daughter is not working, she usually sleeps until noon and only gets up from the bed with sleepy eyes at lunch time.
Then it is very likely that you are not very awake now, or perhaps it is because your normal sleep has been disturbed, although you may not be aware of it.
But in fact, I was holding a lot of anger and feeling depressed, so I was just throwing a tantrum.
So Ms. Shu Hanmei didn't care about this slightly cold attitude, and just asked: "Why did you call us back in such a hurry? What's the matter?"
Then she smiled and said, "If we weren't so lucky that we could buy a flight back home right away, and if we didn't waste time on the transfer, I don't know how long it would take to get back."
