"......" I was at a loss for words. "Then I'll head downstairs first."
"Okay, be quick and come back soon," my mom nodded.
I went downstairs and saw Zhou Zhanfeng standing in the crowd with a megaphone, looking like a commander.
"What are you doing?" I asked Zhou Zhanfeng as I approached him, feeling helpless.
"I'm negotiating with your mom!" Zhou Zhanfeng replied.
"Stop negotiating and come inside," I said, turning to go back into the house.
Zhou Zhanfeng quickly put down the megaphone and followed me inside.
"Hello, Auntie!"
As soon as Zhou Zhanfeng saw my mom, he immediately became obedient.
"Have a seat," my mom said, pointing to the sofa calmly.
Zhou Zhanfeng quickly sat down, and I went to my room to get him a bottle of water.
"Thank you," Zhou Zhanfeng said as he took the water, giving me a grateful glance.
"Your name is Zhou Zhanfeng, right?" my mom asked.
"Yes, Auntie," Zhou Zhanfeng nodded.
"Where are you from?" my mom continued to ask.
"I'm from Heilongjiang," Zhou Zhanfeng replied.
"How old are you this year?" my mom asked again.
"I'm 25 years old," Zhou Zhanfeng answered.
"What is your education level?" my mom pressed on.
"I... I graduated from high school," Zhou Zhanfeng hesitated before saying.
"What do you do for work?" my mom asked again.
"I... I'm a streamer," Zhou Zhanfeng replied.
"How much do you earn in a month?" my mom continued to inquire.
"I... I haven't made any money yet, but I will definitely earn it in the future!" Zhou Zhanfeng said confidently.
"How many people are there in your family?" my mom asked again.
"There are four people in my family. My parents are in the countryside, and I have a younger brother who is in college," Zhou Zhanfeng replied.
"Where do you live now?" my mom continued to ask.
"I rent a house," Zhou Zhanfeng said.
"Then you..." my mom wanted to ask something else but was interrupted by me.
"Mom, what are you doing? Are you checking the household registration?" I said, feeling speechless.
"Shut up!" my mom glared at me.
Zhou Zhanfeng quickly tried to ease the tension, "Auntie, feel free to ask anything; I'll answer honestly."
My mom asked Zhou Zhanfeng many questions, and he patiently answered each one.
It turned out that after graduating from high school, Zhou Zhanfeng couldn't continue his studies due to financial difficulties and went to work in a factory instead.
Later, he discovered that he could make money through live streaming, so he started doing it.
However, he couldn't sing or dance, so he thought of Social Shake and began making his own humorous Social Shake videos, gradually accumulating a large following.
After hearing Zhou Zhanfeng's answers, my mom's expression softened a bit.
"This kid may not have the best conditions, but he's willing to work hard; that's pretty good," my mom said.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhanfeng immediately beamed with joy and eagerly presented a high-end massage chair to my mom.
"Auntie, this is a massage chair I bought for you; I hope you like it," Zhou Zhanfeng said.
"Oh dear, how can I accept this!" my mom said, but her body honestly sat down on it.
"It's nice, very nice!" my mom nodded in satisfaction after trying the massage chair.
"I'm glad you like it, Auntie," Zhou Zhanfeng smiled.
"Not bad, not bad, I accept you as my son-in-law!" My mom patted Zhou Zhanfeng's shoulder and said.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Zhou Zhanfeng was overjoyed.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" I lowered my head, feeling embarrassed.
"Let the kids handle their own matters; I'm not getting involved!" my mom said with a smile.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Zhou Zhanfeng thanked her again.
"Xiaorou, you agreed to be my girlfriend!" Zhou Zhanfeng happily ran to the window and shouted, then left with his fans.
That night, I lay in bed, feeling a mix of emotions. I hadn't agreed to Zhou Zhanfeng's confession; why was he announcing that I had? No way, I needed to give him the cold shoulder for a few days to let him know I'm not that easy to pursue.
So, for the next few days, I ignored Zhou Zhanfeng's WeChat messages and declined his game invitations. I even suggested he take back the massage chair.
"Hurry up and take the massage chair away!" I said with an unfriendly tone.
"Why?" Zhou Zhanfeng asked in confusion.
"It's too expensive; I can't accept it!" I replied honestly.
"Xiaorou, we're friends, right?" Zhou Zhanfeng suddenly asked.
"Yeah," I nodded.
"Then just accept it; besides, it's a gift for my future mother-in-law, not for you," Zhou Zhanfeng said.
"You..." I was at a loss for words.
After hanging up the phone, I touched the massage chair. To be honest, I felt quite touched inside.
