Chapter 375: Fleeing Back to Rongcheng, the Loan is Approved!

Wang Juan was a guest and He Zhiheng's girlfriend, so Su Yang's parents felt awkward letting her help with the cooking in the kitchen.

However, Wang Juan was very proactive and snatched a basket of celery, saying she could help prepare it!

Seeing Wang Juan heading towards the outdoor faucet with the basket, He Zhiheng quickly followed her.

Not long after, Su Yang's Third Aunt also walked out.

By the time Su Yang came out, the young couple and Third Aunt were already cleaning the vegetables.

In the dead of winter, all three of their hands were red from the cold.

Su Yang also went over to help!

Seeing Su Yang squatting next to her, Wang Juan became nervous all over.

"Uh... Boss!"

"We're not at the company, just call me 'Brother'!"

"Brother?"

Wang Juan called out cautiously.

"Yeah!"

Watching her boss deftly pluck all the celery leaves, Wang Juan knew that her boss must do quite a bit of housework at home normally.

At the same time, her admiration for her boss grew even more!

He truly was a self-made man!

"Wang Juan!"

Su Yang suddenly called out.

"Yes?"

"Don't mention my relationship with my cousin at the company for now, okay?"

"Okay!"

Wang Juan didn't understand the boss's intentions, but she felt that following his instructions was the right thing to do.

"Thanks!" Su Yang said with a smile. "I'll give you a big red envelope later!"

Wang Juan smiled sheepishly.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, urged by his parents, Su Yang finally drove to pick up his girlfriend.

After checking in with Chen Li's parents, Su Yang saw Chen Li.

Chen Li was wearing slim-fit jeans that outlined her full, peach-like buttocks.

A simple white down jacket complemented her complexion, making her skin look fair with a rosy glow.

She wore very subtle, light makeup—no eyeshadow, lipstick, or blush... nothing at all!

She carried an affordable but slightly pink light-luxury handbag.

She looked simple and plain, yet possessed the intellectual and elegant charm of a mature older sister.

It was a completely different look from her professional attire at the company or her fashionable outfits while on vacation in Rongcheng!

"So, is this the type your mother will like?"

Chen Li twirled in place and then asked with some anticipation.

Su Yang praised, "You're so beautiful, she'll definitely like you!"

In fact, he knew very well that his mother probably wasn't picky!

As long as it was a woman, and she was alive.

As long as there were no major defects... his mother would likely be happy if he brought her home!

"That's good then!"

With Su Yang's praise, Chen Li felt less nervous.

Even though Su Yang had said they were just providing cover for each other...

She still took this first meeting with Su Yang's family very seriously!

After following Su Yang downstairs and getting into his passenger seat, Chen Li started applying lip balm in the mirror.

Seeing that Su Yang wasn't starting the car and was just staring at her, she held up the lip balm and asked, "Do you want some?"

"Yes!"

"Here!"

Su Yang leaned in gently and kissed Chen Li on the lips!

After a long while, Su Yang finally sat back in his seat.

Chen Li looked out the window shyly; seeing no one around, she felt a bit relieved. "Let's go quickly!"

"Okay!"

When Su Yang brought Chen Li home, she was welcomed by his parents without question.

Chen Li also met Su Yang's relatives and received quite a few red envelopes.

However, He Zhiheng was somewhat surprised when he saw Chen Li.

It turned out the rumors were true... Chen Li really was his cousin's girlfriend!

Visiting Su Yang's home for the first time, Chen Li felt a bit surprised.

She had thought Su Yang's family would be very well-off!

Was Su Yang truly self-made?

Or was there someone else standing behind him?

After all, things like company shares could be held on behalf of others!

Given Su Yang's abilities, it was normal for him to receive help and appreciation from powerful figures!

When night fell and the relatives had left, Su Yang sat beside Chen Li and whispered, "Are you staying at my place tonight?"

Chen Li shook her head. "No!"

"Why?"

Su Yang had a strong constitution, and his needs in that department were quite vigorous!

It was fine if there wasn't a woman around.

But having a woman he couldn't touch was agonizing.

"My mom told me to come home to sleep!" Chen Li laughed awkwardly. "She even said I should wait until we're married to give myself to you!"

"Your mom doesn't know our situation?"

"I didn't tell her!" Chen Li whispered. "Haven't we only known each other for a short while?"

"Alright then!"

As Su Yang drove Chen Li home, he suddenly turned onto a somewhat deserted concrete road halfway there.

"Did you take a wrong turn?"

Chen Li put down her phone, puzzled.

Su Yang suppressed a laugh. "Not exactly!"

"You..." Seeing Su Yang's mischievous grin, Chen Li quickly understood. She grumbled playfully, "But I didn't bring *that*!"

"It's fine. When I went to pick you up today, I stopped by the supermarket and bought some!"

Chen Li couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch Su Yang's arm.

But she didn't use any force!

When he brought Chen Li home, her mother complained as she opened the door, "Didn't you say you'd be home by seven? It's past eleven!"

"We went to the supermarket!" Chen Li smiled as she held up a shopping bag. "I even bought new clothes for you and Dad!"

"Alright, we have clothes to wear. Don't waste money, save it for the wedding!"

Chen Li's mother politely asked Su Yang to stay for a bit, but Su Yang tactfully took his leave.

Back at Su Yang's house, his father frowned slightly. "That girl Chen Li is indeed nice, but isn't she a bit old?"

"What do you know? Older women know how to take care of people. Our son lacks a supportive wife!" Su Yang's mother countered. "Besides, Chen Li has a good temper and is very pretty. She's a good match for our son!"

"I suppose that's true!"

"..."

After Su Yang returned home, his parents expressed their satisfaction with Chen Li, but then his mother started urging him to get married again...

This gave Su Yang a headache!

Good grief!

When he didn't have a girlfriend, they nagged him to get one.

Now that he had one, they nagged him to get married.

Once married, would they nag him for a child?

With a child, would they nag him for a second or third?

He was truly tired and just wanted to slack off!

The New Year festivities ended quickly; the latter part was spent visiting relatives or waiting for them to visit.

This time, the relatives also followed suit, asking when he was getting married and having children...

The holidays weren't even over yet, but as soon as the relative visits were done, he used the excuse of being busy at the company to rush back to Rongcheng!

As for his cousin, he had long since gone to his girlfriend's house to play; he likely didn't want to stay home much either.

Su Yang asked Chen Li, and she immediately stated that she wanted to run away too.

So the two of them agreed and fled back to Rongcheng together!

After bringing Chen Li back to Rongcheng and returning to Luhu Villa, he lay on the sofa and didn't want to get up.

Spending the New Year was more exhausting than working for a month straight!

Chen Li was probably the same as him, lying like a corpse curled in his arms.

The two of them spent another day being clingy, and the New Year holiday finally came to an end!

That evening, Su Yang received news from Tian Hanxiong that the bank's higher-ups had approved the loan application.

If they pushed a bit harder, the funds would definitely be disbursed within seven days!

Su Yang's application for a mortgage business loan was also very timely.

Generally speaking, the beginning and end of the year are the easiest times to apply for bank loans!

At the start of the year, banks have just begun allocating their new annual loan quotas, so funds are relatively abundant and approval standards are more relaxed.

At the end of the year, in order to meet annual business targets, banks might also loosen their approval criteria.
