"What?" Ji Chuan was stunned.

Ji Shuanglin added from the side, "They introduced a girl to your mom. This girl is quite nice, a high school teacher, 23 years old, very pretty, and has a gentle temperament! Just so happens your mom wants to introduce her to you!"

This time it was Ji Chuan’s turn to be dumbfounded.

"That’s right. I told them you would be back today, and I asked the girl to come over this morning! You two can meet! And have lunch together!" Meng Qingmei said with a big smile.

"Mom! No! I don’t want to look for a partner now! My work is very busy! Besides, my job is in Nancheng! You’re introducing a girl from Jiangning, how can we be together in the future?" Ji Chuan quickly refused.

"That’s not a problem. You can’t avoid marrying just because you’re busy. Have you ever seen anyone refuse to marry just due to busyness? You being in Nancheng is also fine now; in the future, you can come back to Jiangning. Likewise, she can also go to Nancheng with you!"

"Yes! Your mom is right." Ji Shuanglin raised his voice, "Ji Chuan, don’t give me those ridiculous excuses. You’re the only son in the Ji Family; do you intend to stay single forever and let the Ji Family line end with you?"

The words from his parents left Ji Chuan completely stunned.

On normal days, his parents would never say such things. What was going on today?

Yan Huan had just come out of the bathroom and happened to hear this, and her steps paused.

"Dad, Mom, let me clarify my stance..."

Ji Chuan hadn’t finished speaking when Meng Qingmei interrupted him: "No need to say anything. After eating, come with me over there quickly; Teacher Xia Lin will arrive soon. It’s your first meeting; you need to behave well and leave a good impression."

Yan Huan’s heart skipped a beat, was this a blind date for Ji Chuan?

At this moment, Ji Chuan realized what was happening: "Mom, are you tricking me? You called me saying you were not feeling well, asking me to come home. I see your real purpose is to set me up on a blind date, isn’t it?"

"Not entirely lying to you. Your mom is indeed not feeling well! Her blood pressure is a bit high, but fortunately, it’s under control!" Meng Qingmei lied to her son without batting an eye.

Ji Chuan was dumbfounded.

He suddenly realized he had been tricked by his parents.

At this time, Yan Huan came out, smiling, but her smile seemed somewhat forced: "Uncle, Auntie, Ji Chuan..."

"Yan Huan is here! Come, sit down and have a meal!" Meng Qingmei warmly invited Yan Huan, "You see, you all came over, and Ji Chuan didn’t even tell me in advance. Were you startled?"

"No, just a bit sudden, not mentally prepared." Yan Huan looked at Meng Qingmei with a somewhat strained smile.

Before, she hadn’t had the chance to take a good look at what Ji Chuan’s mother looked like.

It was only after sitting down for a meal that she had the opportunity to seriously look.

No wonder Ji Chuan has such outstanding looks; his mother was surely a beauty when she was young.

Now, although time had taken away her youth, it left her with an extraordinary temperament, elegant as a chrysanthemum, calm and gentle.

"This is all Ji Chuan’s fault." Ji Shuanglin glanced at his son, "In the future, call home in advance, so we can prepare well to entertain your friends."

"Yes! It’s all my fault. I was negligent. I will pay more attention in the future." Ji Chuan reflected on his mistake, originally intending to give his parents a surprise, but unexpectedly making a mess of things instead.
