My Life with Narration

Chapter 135: A Mother's Debts Repaid by Her Son


Just as Su He was on the verge of tears, calling out for his parents, the elderly couple who were about to leave for Tibet were frowning anxiously in the seaside hotel.

"I told you, dear, that brat is unreliable, but you didn't believe me. How could such a pretty girl, who's also a big boss, be interested in him? The higher your expectations, the greater your disappointment," Comrade Old Su comforted his furious wife.

But Zhou Hui was even more upset: "How could she not be the girlfriend anymore? I was ready to become a grandma. No, I'm calling that brat to ask."

She was about to search for her phone to question him, but was swiftly stopped by Old Su:

"Alright, alright. The girl's got good conditions, it's not bad if it doesn't work out. Otherwise, with our family's situation, we're from different worlds. How would they live together, isn't that right?"

"Let the young people solve their own problems. We're getting on in years, what's the use of worrying? Better not to worry at all, right?"

After all, Old Su was a highly educated man, and he looked at things with an open mind. Ever since he first heard that his son had found a pretty and rich girlfriend, he doubted it.

It's not that he underestimated his son. Who doesn't want the best for their children? Pretty is fine, since their family's genes aren't bad, but pretty and rich is a problem.

Their son doesn't even have a stable job, how could there be a future with someone like her?

"But I still can't accept it. How can a daughter-in-law just slip away? Did you see that girl? I really liked her, even though I haven't met her. No, absolutely not, book a ticket immediately. We're going back."

The more Zhou Hui spoke, the more unwilling she felt, wanting to go back and see for herself.

Hearing this, Old Su was startled: "No, the tickets are already bought. Besides, what's the use of going back? Are you going to tie her up and bring her back?"

"With that time, if you're really worried, you might as well have someone find a match for that brat."

Zhou Hui was momentarily stunned, then realized: "You're suggesting... matchmaking?"

"Yeah, there's plenty of fish in the sea, why hang yourself on one tree? Besides, I heard that brat has been doing well with short videos lately. The big yellow dog you raised has become a viral sensation. Don't get me wrong, this brat's income must have gone up quite a bit. Who knew he'd actually pull it off," Old Su shook his head and said.

Even when he heard this news, he felt it was unbelievable. How did their dumb yellow dog become a viral dog?

"A viral dog, Yellow?" Zhou Hui was stunned. Clearly, she hadn't received this information.

After all, Su Qing's short video account started trending after the old couple set out on their trip. Traveling, there's just so much to do every day. Who has time to check online stuff the whole day?

"Yes, look if you don't believe me!"

With that, Old Su took out his phone, found his son's short video account, and the couple began scrolling through the recent videos.

"Hahaha, I never realized before how Dahuang catches the attention of young girls."

"Oh dear, why are there only girls in this office, and our son is the only guy."

"Hey? This girl is not bad, and this one too, this one not so much, she's a bit chubby."

Zhou Hui scrolled through her son's videos and quickly felt much better, mainly because seeing Dahuang getting along well with girls, naturally, changed her mood for the better.

It doesn't matter who it is, as long as her son finds a girlfriend soon and gets married, she'd thank them greatly.

"Well, it looks like we should reward Dahuang once we get back," Zhou Hui nodded and smiled because it was all her own doing. If it weren't for her, how could there be such a clever dog?

"By the way, how do you register this WeChat account?" Zhou Hui fiddled with her phone and asked.

"Don't you already have a WeChat account, why do you need a new one?" Although he said this, Old Su still took her phone and helped his wife register a new account.

"It's to find a match for our son, so we can have grandkids sooner. You're right, we can't hang on one tree," Zhou Hui seemed encouraged by her new plan and motivated herself.

Hearing this, Old Su was baffled: "What's that got to do with registering a WeChat?"

As they spoke, he watched his wife skillfully change her WeChat profile picture to a photo of Su Qing, which was taken when Su He was relaxing during his first day of the college entrance exam.

Zhou Hui smiled slightly: "Young people these days love online dating, right? If our son can't manage, then as a mother, I must step in. I'll chat for him first, then introduce him at the meeting. The best of both worlds."

With that, Zhou Hui opened the WeChat Shake feature: "Son, watch as mom shakes out a daughter-in-law for you!"

"Crack-crack-crack"

Old Su:...

Who would've thought that what he mentioned casually his wife would take seriously? She really intended to online date on behalf of their son. It must be said, this method is quite novel.

Many couples can't get past the parents' stage in the city, yet here, they'd just directly start with dating the mom. Once it works out, they could just get married immediately.

Meanwhile, Su Qing had just checked the stock market for the day when he suddenly recalled the narrator's voice in his mind.

[A debt incurred by your mother is a debt you must repay as her child. Your rebellious mother, eager to become a grandmother soon, is willing to personally set an example. You will face your first matchmaking meeting in a week.]

Su Qing: Σ(°△ °|||)

The sudden narration left him dumbstruck. How did this suddenly relate back to his mom? She's supposed to be on a honeymoon with Old Su, isn't she?

Also, why on earth was he going for a matchmaking meeting, and in a week no less? Who arranged it?

Finally, he wanted to ask, what sort of romantic debts does his mom have? Even if she has them, why should he be the one repaying them? Could it be his mom liked girls before marriage, and those who couldn't get her aimed at her son to retaliate?

Instantly, a series of question marks appeared over Su Qing's head, raising numerous doubts without any leads, leaving him utterly bewildered.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?"

Seeing Su Qing wide-eyed and looking as though he's seen a ghost, Shen Yi, sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but ask.

At that moment, she was holding a laptop on her lap, barefoot on the sofa, wearing deep blue pajamas with a hydrating face mask on. Unknowing onlookers might think it was her own home.

"Uh... Aunty Shen, have you been on a blind date before?" Su Qing stammered a bit, asking.

Shen Yi also froze.

"A blind date? No, does someone like me need to go on blind dates? Who do you think you're underestimating?"

"Wait, are you telling me you're going on a blind date? With whom?"

Shen Yi sat up quickly, nearly dislodging her face mask.

But at this moment, Su Qing felt like swearing. He still wanted to know who it was. Why all of a sudden did he have to go on a blind date without any warning?

"I don't know, but I have a hunch!"

"Oh, please~~ When are men's hunches ever accurate?"
