Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 122: Awkward Topic
Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Awkward Topic
Walking into the living room, Ye Xuan found the whole family there waiting for him. In fact, the Chu family had woken up earlier than usual, other than Chu Miao who had woken up a little later.
They were expecting Ye Xuan, so they made an effort to wait for him.
"Good morning Grandpa Chu, good morning uncle, auntie, and brother Hao." Ye Xuan first greeted the elders and Chu Miao’s brother before turning to her as always.
"Good morning Miao." He had the faintest indulgent smile on his face and one could see the love in his eyes.
He had restrained his emotions before and never let his feelings for Chu Miao show so blatantly. But now that they were already in a romantic relationship, he didn’t see the use in hiding them.
"Good morning." Everyone in the living room replied to him.
After greeting everyone, Ye Xuan placed the package he was holding in his hand on the table. Even though it was his first time being in a relationship, he knew that the first official visit would create future impressions and he didn’t want the Chu family to think he was careless or didn’t care about their daughter enough. freēwēbnovel.com
Although it was the apocalypse and there was no place to go shop for gifts, giving something to show his sincerity was necessary.
It didn’t matter how expensive or valuable what he gave was, the most important thing was to express his attitude.
Everyone saw the package but didn’t ask anything.
"Sit down Ye Xuan, I’ll get you something to eat. We just had breakfast." Mother Chu said as she wanted to get up and go to the kitchen.
"No need auntie. I have already eaten breakfast with my brothers. Don’t tire yourself out for nothing." Ye Xuan declined her intentions as he walked to Chu Miao and sat down next to her.
Hearing that he had already had breakfast, mother Chu didn’t get up anymore and sat back down.
Ye Xuan didn’t wait for the elders to start asking questions and immediately started to explain himself.
He could tell from the way their eyes followed every detail of his actions that they already knew about his relationship with Chu Miao.
But he expected nothing less. He was already sure that Chu Miao would tell her family about him the moment she got home yesterday. That’s why he decided to come to the Chu family for a visit early.
"I came early today first to inform everyone that Miao and I are dating. I like her and would like to be with her no matter the circumstances we are in and what happens in the future." Ye Xuan started talking as soon as he sat down.
"Are you sure about that? We will not oppose your relationship if you two really like each other and want to be together, but you have to understand that Bunny was raised like a little princess. Although she doesn’t act like one and is very independent, we still hope that if she is with someone, they could put her first.
Are you sure you can do that?" Mother Chu asked once Ye Xuan stopped talking.
This time, even though Grandpa Chu was the most authoritative elder in the family, he didn’t speak. He left this to Chu Miao’s parents to deal with, because at the end of the day, he was just her grandfather and didn’t have much authority over her life compared to her parents.
"I am sure. Since I fell in love with her the way she is and she never pretended to be someone she was not, I already knew what I was signing up for when I chose to ask her to be my girlfriend.
I am not looking for a thrill that will end soon, I am interested in a life-long commitment. Therefore, no matter whether she wants to act like a princess or a warrior, I will support her and protect her." Ye Xuan expressed his stance immediately.
He didn’t want to create some doubts at this stage that might cause suspicions and other complications in their relationship in the future.
His aim was for Chu Miao to be his life partner. Therefore, he had to make sure that he didn’t leave any loopholes that her family might use against him in the future.
He was aware that they treated Chu Miao like their life, hence, he wouldn’t joke about it.
"If you are sure, then as Miao’s parents we have nothing else to say because Bunny herself has made the decision.
We want her to be happy, even if the world is ending. And if you can bring her that happiness, then we have no reason to oppose your relationship, but you have to also understand that she is still young.
So, be careful how your relationship progresses." Father Chu was the one who spoke this time.
Ye Xuan as a man of course understood what he meant by being careful about the progress of their relationship. It mostly had something to do with sex.
Even though he had been celibate for twenty-seven years, he was not a sex-starved ghost and would not touch Chu Miao if she was not ready.
As long as he didn’t have her consent, he would not touch her. That was not a difficult promise to make.
"Don’t worry uncle and auntie, I will cherish Miao and treat her well and will not force her into anything. I will get her permission for anything that happens in our relationship." Ye Xuan made the promise with a straight face.
This was a weird conversation to have, especially for Chu Miao and it was starting to make her uncomfortable. Even though she hadn’t eaten pork, she had seen pigs run.
So, of course she knew what they were talking about, but did they have to do it in front of her as if she wasn’t there?
What’s more, why were they having that conversation in the first place?
Chu Hao had the same dilemma. He had not imagined himself, sitting with his family discussing his little sister’s love life, especially intimate details.
It was making him want to garg.
