Mr. Nan understood what he meant.
“It’s fine. I’ll see if I can ask around soon.”
Many of Mr. Nan’s old classmates were still in the political world of Jiang City. It was much easier for Mr. Nan to investigate than Nan Zhe.
After chatting about Qi Yan’s family situation, Nan Zhe continued. “She studied photography and now has her own studio in Huai City. Her job is stable and she has a laid-back personality. When she was in school, she was like a boy.”
“How can you say that about a girl?” Mrs. Nan did not like this analogy. However, along the way, she felt that this girl was quite capable. She did not rely on her family and was doing well in the industry she liked.
“She came out to work alone and now has her own studio. Not bad, not bad at all. ”
Mr. and Mrs. Nan had a very good impression of Qi Yan.
Seeing this, Nan Zhe heaved a sigh of relief.
He was indeed confident that his parents would not stop the two of them from being together because of Qi Yan’s father, but he was still a little nervous.
Fortunately.
When they got to the airport, Mrs. Nan sighed and felt nervous. “This is our first time meeting her, but we came unprepared. You really should have told us in advance.”
They were unable to even prepare her a gift. It was so sudden.
Nan Zhe smiled. “It’s fine. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”
Mrs. Nan still felt that it was not good. She took out her phone and searched for a long time. In the end, she bought a bouquet of flowers and asked the shop to send it to the airport urgently.
Mr. Nan felt that it was definitely too late.
However, money made the world go round. The florist came very quickly, 20 minutes earlier than expected.
After some thought, Mrs. Nan stuffed the flowers into Nan Zhe’s hands and felt that it was better this way.
Because she knew that Nan Zhe was coming to pick her up, Qi Yan asked he colleagues in the studio to get her luggage and walked out first.
She left in a hurry. She was worried that Nan Zhe would wait too long and she might hold up Shen Yanqing and Nan Ge.
“By the way, what’s her name?” Mrs. Nan suddenly asked.
“Qi Yan. Qi is the one that means extreme cold. As for Yan…”
Seeing that he was stuck, Mrs. Nan guessed, “Yan? The one that means beautiful?”
Girls used this character in their names more often.
Nan Zhe came back to his senses and shook his head gently. “No, it’s the one that means words as in philosophical words.”
Mr. and Mrs. Nan looked at him at the same time. Mrs. Nan even snorted exaggeratedly. No one knew what she was laughing about.
Nan Zhe touched his nose awkwardly as if he was a little embarrassed. However, he quickly smiled.
Mrs. Nan did as youngsters did and typed Qi Yan’s name on her phone. The colorful words were extremely eye-catching.
When Qi Yan came out, she casually glanced at the crowd and stopped in her tracks.
Mrs. Nan looked at her and knew that it must be this girl.
“Here, here!” Mrs. Nan waved enthusiastically. “Come quickly!”
Was she a fan coming to welcome a celebrity? But she was not a celebrity.
Qi Yan was puzzled when she suddenly saw the person standing beside the older lady.
Nan Zhe was carrying a bouquet of flowers. As it was too big, when he adjusted his position just now, the bouquet happened to cover his face, so Qi Yan did not notice him immediately.
He changed hands to hold the flowers and gestured for her to walk towards the exit with his other hand.
“What are you waiting for? Come out quickly.”
“Okay…” Qi Yan didn’t know how she walked out. She followed the crowd like a walking corpse.
Her mind was blank.
Could they be Nan Zhe’s parents?
Judging from the lady’s enthusiasm, she was probably it.
She knew that she would definitely meet Nan Zhe’s parents today and was prepared. After all, Shen Yanqing was proposing to Nan Ge. As her parents, they had to be present.
However, she never expected that their parents would also come to the airport with Nan Zhe to pick her up.
Ever since she got off the plane, she had not been mentally prepared.
Why did they meet early…
“Here, my mother bought these for you.” Nan Zhe stood in front of her and handed the flowers to her. “I don’t dare to take credit.”
When Qi Yan took the flowers, her hands were trembling. She had never done this when she was taking photos of superstars.
“Thank you, Auntie.” Qi Yan pretended to be calm, but she was actually panicking.
She hugged the bouquet nervously, her fingers gripping the ribbon as she twirled it again and again.
Nan Zhe introduced them and Qi Yan quickly greeted them.
Mr. Nan smiled and did not say anything.
Mrs. Nan held her hand. “Nan Zhe didn’t tell us in advance, and we didn’t have time to prepare any gifts. Maybe next time when you come over to our place, okay?”
Along the way, Mrs. Nan was very enthusiastic and kept finding topics to chat about with Qi Yan.
However, Qi Yan did not speak much. Even if Mrs. Nan asked questions related to her profession, she had trouble opening up.
After that, Nan Zhe quickly helped her out.
After arriving at the hotel, Nan Zhe sent his parents to their room first before he had time to spend alone with Qi Yan.
“My parents like you very much. Don’t be afraid. My mother is just like that. Nan Ge just takes after my mother’s personality.” Nan Zhe turned around and helped her put the flowers on the table.
Then, he reached out and held her hand. “You don’t have to worry at all. They’re not as mean as you think. They’ll treat you the same way I treat you.”
“If I wasn’t sure that they would like you, I definitely wouldn’t have let you meet so suddenly.”
“When we arrived at the airport, my mother kept blaming me for not telling her in advance. She didn’t have time to prepare any gifts for you. She could only get someone to send a bouquet of flowers over first.”
“I know what you’re afraid of. I mentioned this to them. They don’t have a bad impression of you. None at all.”
“On the way here, my mother talked so much because she was a little nervous.”
Just like Mrs. Nan, Nan Ge was especially talkative when she was a little nervous.
After Qi Yan sat down, she took a moment to recover. As if she had woken up from a dream, she said, “Do your parents really like me?”
She did not talk much on the way because she was too nervous.
Even though Nan Zhe said so, she was still not sure. She was not confident at all.
In the end, she still felt inferior.
She agreed to Nan Zhe’s suggestion because she wanted to give herself a chance.
She thought that she could work harder.
She was not someone who easily fell into nervousness and anxiety. Before she reunited with Nan Zhe, she was as cheerful and lively as ever. She had many friends around her, so she was not slow to warm up.
However, after they reunited, she seemed to have fallen into such emotions frequently.
It was as if she had been swept into the bottom of the sea by waves, rising and falling as she struggled. She was drowning and did not know when she would have a chance to catch her breath.
She did not like herself very much.
She also tried to find the problem within herself. It was very simple and direct. It was still the same problem as before. She also tried to find the reason herself. It was very simple and direct. It was still the same problem as before. Although they were together, this problem had never disappeared..
