TN: This is Thursday’s regular~
Han Cheng: ! ! !
Han Cheng’s sleepiness faded instantly, and his whole person woke up.
“I’m alone!”
“Who did you just talk to?”
“When did I speak? Did you hear me?” Han Cheng refused to admit it.
Han Yu nodded, “Okay, I’m hearing things.”
He looked at his watch. “It’s 9:30 now. If there’s no accident, your dear mother and I will appear at your door at about 10:10. I hope you’ll be ready. Finish washing your face by then.”
Han Cheng: ? ? ? ? ?
“What are you talking about?!”
“Your dear mother, in order to celebrate your 26th birthday, she decided to go to your kennel and cook a bowl of long-lived noodles full of maternal love for you. I’ve informed you in advance. Don’t say that your gege didn’t help you when something happens.”
“Tell her I’m not here and ask her not to come!” Han Cheng immediately said.
“I can’t.” Han Yu refused.
“Why?”
“Probably because of my hearing problems? I didn’t hear what you just said.”
Han Cheng: …
“I was wrong.” Han Cheng was able to bend and stretch. “Don’t embarrass your poor didi at this time. Go and tell her that I’m not at home today and ask her to come back another day, okay?”
“Then tell your dear gege whether you are alone or there’s two people.”
Han Cheng: …
Why does he have such a ge!
Will you die if you don’t bully your didi?!
“Two people.”
Han Yu instantly became interested, “who is the other one? It must not be QingQing. After all, you don’t like him. How can you like him? How can he be your boyfriend? You are just ordinary roommates who live under the same roof and give gifts to each other, right?”
Han Cheng: …
How did his ge live to this day?
Why hasn’t he killed him?
How can he allow such a scourge to harm the world for so many years?!
He has wronged himself!
“If you don’t go and tell our mother, she will come!” Han Cheng said angrily, “Go quickly!”

Han Yu hung up the phone lazily and walked out the door, “Mum, xiao Cheng said he was not at home. They stayed in Yin Mingyao’s hotel for a night after playing yesterday.”
Mother Han was very calm, “that’s better. Anyway, I also have his keys. I’ll take aunt Zhang with me and check whether his house is messy. If it’s messy, I’ll ask aunt Zhang to clean it up.”
Han Yu: …
“This is not very good, in case you touch something of his and he becomes unhappy?”
“Then I won’t let aunt Zhang clean up first. You call him and ask him to come back soon. I’ll wait for him at his house.”
Han Yu: … Okay, I see. His mother must let his didi eat the love filled longevity noodles she cooked by herself today.
Han Yu helplessly dialled another call to Han Cheng.
“What’s the matter?”
“Get up.” Han Yu sighed, “I can’t help you escape. I just told your dear mother, but she insisted that you eat her hand-made longevity noodles today. She said to ask you to come back and she’ll wait for you at your home.”
“Why can’t I go home to eat?”
“Because she just wants to visit your house. Do you understand surprise inspections? It’s best to have an unexpected harvest. If not, she can’t see how you’re doing outside and won’t be relieved. By the way, she’s going to take aunt Zhang with her to help you clean up the house.”
Han Cheng: …
“I have an aunt who cleans up my house regularly. No need for aunt Zhang.”
“So you’d better finish any camouflage in twenty minutes. Gege can only help you this much.”
Han Cheng: …
“Help me buy more time,” he said helplessly. “It’s really not enough. It’s best to drag it out for another twenty minutes for a combination of one hour.”
“I’ll try.”
Han Cheng hung up the phone and hurriedly shook Shen Qingshu, who was still asleep, “wake up, baby, your future mother is coming.”
“My future mother? I have a mother?” Shen Qingshu rubbed in his arms twice and hugged him tightly. He couldn’t remember how he had a future mother.
Han Cheng: …
“My mother, isn’t she your future mother? Or do you prefer me saying, your mother-in-law is coming!”
Shen Qingshu: ! ! !
Shen Qingshu suddenly woke up, “your mother ? ! !”
“I guess there’s also my ge.”
“Your ge ? ! !”
“Nine times out of ten, he will also come together.”
“What about your father?” Shen Qingshu said nervously.
“Do you want to meet our whole family at once?”
Shen Qingshu quickly shook his head, “I didn’t, I don’t want to.”
“That’s it.” Han Cheng sighed, “this is a small advance force, only my mother and my ge.”
Shen Qingshu: …
Shen Qingshu thinks it’s still deadly!
“Should I disappear?” He asked earnestly.
Han Cheng: ? ? ?
“Why are you disappearing?”
“Your mother is coming, shouldn’t I disappear? Then when we meet, what should I say?”
“Just say you are my boyfriend.”
Shen Qingshu shook his head in a reflex, “I’m not ready yet.”
“What preparation is needed? An ugly daughter-in-law has to reveal herself to the in-laws eventually, not to mention you are not ugly.” 1
Han Cheng pinched his face, “you look so handsome, what are you afraid of?”
“Does your mother know me? Does she know I’m your boyfriend?”
Han Cheng: …
“She’s about to know.”
“How can this be?” Shen Qingshu got out of bed in a hurry. “There’s a process for normal people to meet their in-laws. Becoming familiar with the person first, and then properly introduced. Your mother doesn’t know me, and she doesn’t know you have a boyfriend. Now suddenly we meet. In case your mother isn’t prepared mentally, won’t we be in danger?”
“No, she urges me to fall in love every day. Don’t worry.” Han Cheng got out of bed, took his hand and said, “she certainly won’t beat the mandarin ducks.”
“That won’t work.” Shen Qingshu was very flustered.
“I’d better go out and hide first.”
He said, breaking away from Han Cheng’s hand and changing his clothes.
Han Cheng: ? ? ? ?
Han Cheng couldn’t laugh or cry.
“What are you hiding from? You can hide from the first day of junior high school, but you can hide beyond the fifteenth day. You will eventually need to meet her.”
Shen Qingshu changed his pants and stood up. “That’s not today.”
“Okay, okay.” Han Cheng pulled him over and helped him tie his belt. “Is this fine? You can just be my roommate. Can you meet her as a roommate?”
“Is this okay?”
Han Cheng held him on his lap, “Why not. This time we’ll let her become familiar with you, by introducing you as my roommate. Later I’ll tell her we’re together, then it’s like a matter of course.”
Shen Qingshu was frightened, “I’m afraid I’ll reveal our secrets.”
“You are an actor. What are you afraid of? Shouldn’t this be the time for you to show your excellent acting skills?”
“I have never acted in such a play.” Shen Qingshu was at a loss.
He looked at Han Cheng, still uneasy, “will your mother dislike me?”
“Why?”
“I can’t cook, and I don’t like doing housework. My family is not a rich family, and I don’t deserve you at all.”
“So you are suggesting that her eldest son and her second son get together? From the perspective of identity, status and living habits, it can be seen that we are compatible since we’ve lived together for more than 20 years.”
Shen Qingshu chuckled, “I didn’t mean that.”
He pulled Han Cheng’s pyjamas. “I’m just extremely nervous.”
Han Cheng reached out and hugged him into his arms, rubbing his back, “it’s okay, it’s okay, don’t be afraid, your boyfriend is here, what are you nervous about? Don’t worry, if the sky falls, I’ll support you.”
Shen Qingshu hugged him and wanted to hide directly in his body, saving himself from meeting his mother.
“Then you need to help me later.” Shen Qingshu snorted.
Han Cheng patted him on the back, “Okay, I’ll stand in front of you at that time. You can hide behind me at any time.”
Shen Qingshu nodded his head in a “uh huh” way.
Han Cheng was simply amused by him like this. “My mother is not a tiger. Look at how she scares you. I think you are usually very brave. Why are you like this now?”
Shen Qingshu grabbed his clothes and said this is your mother, your mother!
Who is not nervous about meeting the parents of the people they like for the first time?
Especially if the other party doesn’t know him at all.
He couldn’t help hugging Han Cheng, and then raised his head and said, “give me a buff.”
Han Cheng looked at the pitiful him and kissed him twice on the forehead. “Is this better?”
“It’s still not enough.”
Han Cheng laughed and held his face to kiss his mouth. “It’s true, you’re the best. My mother will definitely like you very much.”
Shen Qingshu hugged his neck and rubbed against his neck pitifully.

Han Cheng smiled and hugged him and continued to buff him.
Han Yu stirred the coffee slowly, looking at the phone while stirring, seemingly very leisurely.
As soon as mother Han came downstairs, she looked at him in a relaxed manner and urged him, “Hm? Xiao Yu, I’m leaving. Are you done?”
Han Yu held out with coffee. “Here.”
He said in a warm voice, “I made it myself.”
Mother Han took it, smelled the aroma of coffee and tasted it, “not bad.”
“While looking for something, I suddenly saw this box of coffee beans. Mum, if you like it, I’ll put it in your room in a moment.”
“Okay.” Mother Han laughed, “but what’s the matter with you, suddenly making coffee for me?”
“Why?” Han Yu looked calm. “I just happened to see it, so I made a cup to let you taste it. After all, this coffee is a way to feel refreshed.”
Mother Han chuckled, walked to the sofa, sat down and drank.
Seeing this, Han Yu took the initiative to help her get some biscuits that had just been baked yesterday. “Here, didn’t you say this biscuit was just right with coffee yesterday?”
Mother Han: …
Mother Han looked at her eldest son in doubt, “what’s the matter with you? You are so attentive all of a sudden, it’s making your mother feel deliberately flattered.”
“Of course not. It’s everyone’s duty to be filial to their parents. Mum, please eat slowly. I’ll get something for xiao Cheng. At least I can’t go there empty handed, right?”
Mother Han nodded. “It’s true. Go and pick up what he likes to eat and use. By the way, didn’t I make a few jars of jam a while ago? Take two jars of jam for him, to see if he likes to eat.”
“Okay.” Han Yu stood up and walked upstairs.
Alas, he hopes his didi can take advantage of this moment to cover up well with his little boyfriend.
Otherwise, it would be a waste of his efforts to buy time.
Han Yu sent a wechat message to Han Cheng and walked slowly upstairs.
Han Cheng finished Shen Qingshu’s psychological framework, and the two men began to wash and change clothes quickly to clean up the house.
1 Struggled a lot with this saying ‘ugly’ felt overly rude and aggressive, was going to translate to homely but saying SQS wasn’t homely felt weird too..
This is the version I prefer more
“The homely bride has to reveal herself to the in-laws eventually.”
This Chinese idiom means the inevitability of “facing the music” albeit without the wrongdoing sense on the part of the bride. In the old days of arranged marriages, it was actually common for the in-laws and the groom to see the face of the bride only after the ceremony, and hence the saying.
