The night before their departure, Chen Zhengnian arrived at the Lu Family's home, carrying bags of all sizes.
In addition to the initial meeting gifts for Wang Xinxin's parents, he had also specifically bought many local specialties and asked Mrs. Lu to help see if they were appropriate.
Wang Xinxin sat to the side, watching him earnestly discuss which gifts to bring and what to say with Mrs. Lu. Her heart was a mix of sweetness and anxiety.
She couldn't help but ask in a small voice, "Are you nervous?"
Chen Zhengnian's hands, busy organizing the items, paused. He turned his head. "How could I not be nervous about meeting my future in-laws?"
He admitted it frankly, but then his tone shifted, and his gaze grew even more resolute.
"But this bit of nervousness is nothing compared to putting you in a difficult position. Don't worry, I'm here."
His simple words completely put Wang Xinxin's heart at ease.
Lu Xiao, who had been away on a mission, rushed back before the two departed.
