The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 447 - Why Am I the Unlucky One?

Kemeng pondered for a moment before saying, “I might be away for about a month this time.”

Su Ming nodded, adding, “The capital is quite cold at the moment. Make sure to dress warmly.”

Hearing Su Ming's concern, Kemeng's cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red, making her look even more charming.

She hadn't expected Su Ming to be so attentive to the weather in the capital on her account.

A girl with no romantic experience can often be deeply moved by even the slightest show of care from a man.

The BBQ Street wasn't far from the Xiao family villa. Upon Su Ming's arrival, he noticed a fiery red sports car parked out front.

He scanned the area but didn't spot President Chen. It dawned on him that President Chen must have already left.

Before getting out of the car, Kemeng unexpectedly said, “Thank you.”

Su Ming paused, puzzled by her gratitude.

Before he could gather his thoughts, Kemeng suddenly leaned in and planted a soft kiss on Su Ming's cheek.

Her face instantly heated up following the kiss.

Su Ming, already bewildered, was left even more speechless by Kemeng's gesture.

He could still feel the warmth of her lips on his cheek.

Neither Kemeng nor Su Ming had any romantic history. Although he had watched his share of adult films, Su Ming had no actual sexual experience.

“I'm going to get out now,” Kemeng announced, then flung the car door open as if to escape.

The moment she did, she jumped in surprise and let out a scream. Su Ming was startled too. Xiao Chen was gaping at them from outside the car, and behind him stood Kemeng's parents, Xiao Luomu and Yueqiu, equally astonished.

Despite the tinted windows of Su Ming's car, they were rolled down. It was already dark, and in her nervousness, Kemeng had failed to notice them. Consequently, the trio had seen everything.

The air turned tense in an instant.

Out of nowhere, Xiao Chen blurted out, “Dad, Mom! My sister just kissed my brother-in-law!”

Su Ming was taken aback. He had the urge to punch Xiao Chen right then and there.

Inside the car, Kemeng sat frozen, unsure of her next move.

She turned to her parents, biting her lip, and said apprehensively, “Dad, Mom.”

As soon as Kemeng finished speaking, Luomu immediately gave her a thumbs up and exclaimed, “Daughter, that was impressive! You've managed to captivate Mr. Su so quickly! That's exactly how I fell for your mother! Honey, please stop pinching my waist!”

Mid-sentence, Yueqiu's hand had already found its way to his waist and gave it a firm twist!

Kemeng was taken aback.

She had braced herself for her parents' anger, but instead, they appeared overjoyed.

Yueqiu said, “Daughter, you're not getting any younger. It's time to think about marriage. Your father and I have been concerned about it. But now, we can put our worries to rest. Being with Mr. Su is wonderful. Honestly, there's no one in the capital who holds a candle to him.”

Yueqiu's grip only tightened as she spoke, causing Luomu to wince in pain. Despite this, he looked at Kemeng with a warm, affectionate smile. His eyes brimmed with happiness when he turned to Su Ming.

“Thank you, Mom!” Kemeng said, breathing a sigh of relief.

She rushed to her mother's side and wrapped her arms around her.

Sitting in the car, Su Ming sensed that something was amiss.

The pace of events seemed to be accelerating too quickly.

He hadn't even spoken yet, and they were already discussing marriage.

He couldn't shake the feeling that he was being ensnared.

Kemeng was not only beautiful and well-educated but also came from a distinguished family.

He genuinely liked her, but something still felt off.

Considering how modest she usually was, her boldness in kissing him meant he couldn't just brush this off.

“Mr. Su, would you like to come in and sit for a while?” Luomu asked, massaging his waist and forcing a smile.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to invite Su Ming inside; the pain had simply been too much, making his smile somewhat strained.

”Uncle Xiao, please don't call me Mr. Su anymore,” Su Ming responded.

“You're my elder, and I'm the younger one here. Just call me Su from now on.”

With that, Su Ming stepped out of the car.

Su Ming had mentioned this several times already.

Whether it was Old Master Tang or Old Master Qin, both esteemed elders seemed to disregard his words.

Xiao Luomu chuckled and said, “No worries. Once you and Kemeng tie the knot, you can call me Dad, and I'll address you as Sir. No conflict there.”

Su Ming blinked, sensing a strange familiarity with the phrase.

“Mr. Su, are you pressed for time? If not, come inside for a cup of tea before you leave,” Yueqiu invited.

Su Ming nodded, “Sure.”

Xiao Luomu, Yueqiu, Su Ming, and Xiao Ke'er made their way toward the villa.

Xiao Chen stood frozen, watching their retreating figures.

He was still there!

Was he truly that inconspicuous?

Unable to contain himself, Xiao Chen blurted out, “Sis, brother-in-law, I…”

”I forgot about you. Come on over,” Xiao Ke'er called out, turning around with a smile.

“I always knew my sister cared about me the most!” Xiao Chen exclaimed joyfully as he ran to Xiao Ke'er.

With a grin, Xiao Ke'er instructed, “Later, head to the study and copy the Trimetric Classic five more times!”

Xiao Chen was bewildered.

Why did he suddenly have to write out the Trimetric Classic five times?

He had spent the afternoon copying it as a punishment.

No sooner had he finished than a new punishment was assigned.

Why was it always him facing misfortune?

“Why?” Xiao Chen asked, his face a picture of confusion.

”Because you startled me just now,” Xiao Ke'er explained.

“Dad, Mom, my sister is picking on me,” Xiao Chen appealed to his parents.

”Just do as your sister says,” they advised in unison.

”Brother-in-law!” Xiao Chen turned to Su Ming as his last resort.

“I'm merely a visitor here,” Su Ming replied with a blink.

Then, all four of them turned in unison and continued on their way to the villa.
