Chapter 188 A Good Son-In-Law for the Liu Family (2/2)

”Thirdly, your level of chess is really good, I guess it's more or less at professional level. That's rare.”

Xiao Bing now knew that Liu Kexin's father was a traditional old man. The most important thing he valued was not only the ability but more importantly, the character. So the reason why he didn't show a kind look before, was not that he thought Xiao Bing's chess skills were not good, but he thought that this person was a good person and liked to brag.

It didn't matter if the ability was not good, especially since they were only playing Go, but he had bragged when his ability didn't come up to par. This was why Mr. Liu was not happy before. But after Xiao Bing defeated him completely, he immediately guessed that Xiao Bing was trying to give him a break. He was embarrassed, but the prejudice against Xiao Bing disappeared.

Just then, Liu Kexin's mother called out that dinner was ready. Liu Kexin's father stood up and laughed, ”Kexin's mother, take out the Maotai, I want to drink with Xiao Bing.”

Liu Kexin said coquettishly, ”Dad, Bing still has to drive later tonight.”

”Ah, I never thought of this.”

Xiao Bing smiled and said, ”Uncle, it doesn't matter, I can leave the car here and drive it away tomorrow. I will go back by taxi tonight.”

”Good idea.” Liu father smiled. ”Then we can enjoy a drink together tonight.”

When Mrs. Liu saw them getting along so well, she was even more pleased with Xiao Bing. She knew too well what her husband's temperament was like. Her husband most appreciated young people who were well-behaved. If he was not happy with them, he won't hide his displeasure, to say nothing of having a drink with them. Looks like this young man has made quite an impression on her husband.

Liu Kexin's mother also believed in her husband's judgment. If her husband felt he was good, then he was fundamentally good.

Liu Kexin's mother was a very good cook. She cooked six dishes and one soup, which were enough for four people. She took out the Maotai and opened it on the table. Xiao Bing stood up and took the initiative to pour it for Mr. Liu and himself. Mrs. Liu herself did not drink.

Liu Kexin's father said with a smile, ”This was given to me by my student. That student has had a little bit of success in life, and still thinks of coming over to visit me. The gift is not important, what is important is the thought. ”

Xiao Bing smiled, ”Respecting the teacher is the result of the 5,000-year history of China. That's how it should be.”

”Yes, but in today's society, not many young people are like this.” Mr. Liu picked up the glass, Xiao Bing quickly raised his too, and each of them took a sip.

Mr. Liu put down the glass, picked up the chopsticks and looked at Xiao Bing. He asked curiously, ”I don't understand, you are young and not a professional of Go. How do you practise your chess skills? Is someone in your family a professional player?”

Xiao Bing sighed and shook his head. ”I am an orphan. I grew up in an orphanage.”

Mr. Liu was very surprised. Seeing Xiao Bing's look of desolation, he felt guilty and immediately said, ”Oh, Kexin didn't tell us, I'm sorry.”

”It doesn't matter.” Xiao Bing smiled and shook his head. ”I have got used to it since I was a child, and the staff at kindergarten were also very kind to me. They are like my own family.”

Mrs. Liu asked, ”How did you become the owner of a noodle house?”

”Because of the support of the national policy, and the orphanage also sponsored my studies. So I successfully went to college. After I graduated, I stayed in the army for a few years and earned some merits. After I got decommissioned, I received some financial support. That's how I became a shareholder of a noodle house in Jiang City and become the owner of a small business.”

”That's good.” Mr. Liu praised, ”You are eager to learn, can endure hardship and are down-to- earth. There far fewer young men like you nowadays who can build something from nothing. I think you will go on to do great things one day.”

Mrs. Liu smiled beside him and said, ”As long as you live a comfortable life, nothing is better than that. You don't have to do great things. Xiao Bing, make yourself at home, don't be too polite, and eat up.”

Xiao Bing said with a smile, ”Thank you, Auntie, the food you cooked is really delicious.”

Women in general like others to praise heir beauty and their cooking skills. Liu Kexin's mother immediately laughed.

Liu Kexin looked at this scene next to him. When she saw that Xiao Bing chatted with her parents so happily, she really breathed a sigh of relief and felt warm in her heart. Seeing they got along so well, she thought, ”It will be so awesome if Bing was really my boyfriend...”
