Chapter 26: A Call From Qin Qing’s Parents

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen Ming woke up early the next day.

When the sky had just turned slightly bright, he was dressed neatly and ready to go to the processing plant to work.

This was noticed by Qin Qing, who always got up early.

Normally, no matter how hardworking Chen Ming was, he would not be able to wake up so early.

Chen Ming’s reaction the day before had filled her with suspicion, so she could not help but pay attention to Chen Ming’s every move, hoping to detect something unusual from his actions.

He suddenly woke up early today. Could it be that… he was avoiding her?

Qin Qing’s thoughts were flying everywhere.

However, she soon came back to her senses, shook her head, stopped thinking about it, and headed off to wash up.

As for Chen Ming, he was blissfully unaware of the drama playing out in Qin Qing’s head. He was currently wrestling with the seven-seater van.

He had wanted to start work earlier, but the van was not cooperating at all. It turned off as soon as it started. When it did start, it would only putter forward for a few meters before the engine died again.

Looking at the full fuel meter, Chen Ming knew that the van was done for.

The seven-seater van had already been on the verge of falling apart, so Chen Ming was not too surprised to see it break down like this.

Then, just as he was about to get it towed and repaired, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

What if this van was processed by the system? Perhaps he would get a new car.

Chen Ming immediately took out his phone and dialed a number.

The moment the other party picked up the call, Chen Ming went straight to the point.

“Come to my house and move my van to No.108, Dongyang district. I’ll transfer the payment to you later.”

“Just leave the van in the yard, thank you.”

Chen Ming was satisfied after he hung up the phone. There were many people in the old neighborhood, so it was not suitable to use the processing skill here.

Fortunately, the small villa he had bought was quiet and private.

It was perfect.

By the time the movers had transported the van to the designated location, Chen Ming had just taken a taxi to the Dongyang district.

Fortunately, it was quiet here. Chen Ming hummed a little tune as he walked into the yard.

The old and shabby van was parked in the yard, and looked quite out of place there.

It was as if a skinny husky had suddenly appeared in a perfect fairy tale world.

Chen Ming shook his head helplessly.

Fortunately, after the system was done processing it, the van would change significantly.

Excited, Chen Ming whispered, “System, process this van.”

[Ding! Congratulations! The processing was successful!]

This time, the system did not give him a specific introduction to the outcome.

Chen Ming did not mind this, and simply examined the brand new vehicle in the yard carefully.

All traces of the old van had disappeared, and the new vehicle was pure black, with smooth lines and a pleasant appearance.

There was also the license plate number prepared by the system. Chen Ming did not even need to ask to know that the license plate number was in line with the regulations.

This vehicle was a mid-range unit. It had good performance in all aspects, and was cheap despite its good quality. It was very suitable for someone like him who had just started his business.

When Chen Ming opened the car door to get a feel of the interior, he noticed a bunch of documents on the passenger seat.

He took the documents and found that they were all related to the car. All the documents were complete and in accordance with the regulations.

The system was truly comprehensive. Not only did it prepare the license plate number, but even the legal documents related to ownership, insurance and the like.

Satisfied, Chen Ming put the documents into the car’s glove compartment. He started the car again and prepared to take it for a test drive.

On the wide road, Chen Ming listened to the surround sound music in his car as he drove.

After a quick test drive, Chen Ming felt that this car indeed lived up to its reputation. The feel of the car did not disappoint him, and its performance far exceeded other cars of the same price.

Sigh, the system really knew what he liked and wanted!

While Chen Ming was trying out his new car, Qin Qing was in a daze in the office.

The events of yesterday and this morning had more or less affected her.

Then, the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated.

A crisp ringtone played, and Qin Qing quickly took out her phone.

The Caller ID showed that it was “Mommy”. Surprised, Qin Qing quickly adjusted her state of mind and pressed the answer button.

“Qing Qing, how have you been?” The one who spoke up first was Qin Qing’s father, Qin Shaotao.”

“Dad, I’m fine. Why did you and mom suddenly call me?” Qin Qing smiled as she replied.

“Qing Qing, guess what we found out?”

On the other end of the phone, Bai Rong pushed Qin Shaotao aside and said gently.

Bai Rong was a lady from a wealthy family. She was raised by a prestigious family. She was an outstanding daughter-in-law and wife who always maintained her sense of elegance. However, Qin Qing could now hear some excitement in her mother’s voice.

This was something that did not usually happen.

What did they find out?

Countless possibilities flashed through her mind and, gradually, one answer became clear, which was the events that had taken place at Wang Linlin’s birthday party!

Qin Qing’s heart was alarmed.

Sure enough, seeing that Qin Qing had not responded for some time, Qin Shaotao piped up, “Qing Qing, you attended the birthday party of that young lady from the Wang family, right? Who did you attend it with?”

Qin Shaotao asked rather excitedly.

“Sigh, your dad only knows how to keep people in suspense.” Although Bai Rong’s tone was much calmer, it was still different from usual.

“We both know that at Wang Linlin’s birthday party, you were very close to Chen Ming.”

“Qing Qing, look at you. You didn’t even tell us about this. If it wasn’t for mom’s old friend who happened to be attending the birthday party and noticed you, we wouldn’t even know about you and Chen Ming.”

After Bai Rong said that, Qin Qing rubbed her eyebrows helplessly.

It seemed that her parents had misunderstood.

“No, mom.”

However, before Qin Qing could finish her sentence, Qin Shaotao interrupted her.

“Daughter, don’t worry. We’re not stubborn. Although Chen Ming’s company has just started and the scale has not reached that of the Wang family’s, your mother and I understand his capability. We agree with your choice!”

“Given time, Chen Ming will definitely become more and more successful! I’m optimistic about his future, and yours.”

As soon as Qin Shaotao finished speaking, Bai Rong continued, “Your father is right, but let’s put that aside for now.”

“We called you to ask when you can bring him home. Don’t delay this kind of thing. There aren’t many capable young men like him.”

Qin Shaotao and Bai Rong jabbered on and on, and what they said was not wrong.

However…

Qin Qing was a little embarrassed, but she could not explain her relationship with Chen Ming to them. After all, even she did not really know Chen Ming’s current feelings for her.

She did not know how to broach this topic or whether they could proceed to the next stage.

Qin Qing was also afraid. She was afraid that they could not even be friends after she told him her feelings.

However, if she did not say it, she would regret it.

In the end, she could only offer a few perfunctory sentences before ending the call with the excuse of wanting to sleep a little more.

After hanging up, Qin Qing felt as if her parents’ urgings were still ringingin her ears. She reckoned that she had to talk to Chen Ming about this.
