Chapter 512 - 336: Love Can Create Miracles
Do you want to meet Huang Tianxuan’s parents? Li Peifeng didn’t need to think much about this question to find the answer—it definitely had to be done.
He had already visited Zhao Qingge’s family, gone to Wu Wenyue’s home, and also met Xu Manning’s mom.
How could he miss this one?
Of course, he had to meet them, and buy nice gifts for the meeting. But before visiting Huang Tianxuan’s parents, it wouldn’t hurt for Li Peifeng to find out what’s really going on.
Because the relationship between them was quite complicated and extremely unstable, Huang Tianxuan hadn’t previously mentioned it to her family, so why today?
The reason behind it was old-fashioned but true. You should know that Huang Tianxuan would be turning twenty-nine once the New Year was over...
"It’s because the New Year is nearing and my parents are pressing me hard to get married. This morning, they called me over for breakfast, but the real purpose was to introduce a blind date to me, asking me to have lunch with this person, when I had originally planned to meet you for a grocery trip. How would I have the time? But if I refuse with other excuses, they don’t accept. They insist I go, even threatening my work, saying if I don’t go on the date, they’ll force me to take a break."
"I got fed up with the pressure, so I just came out and said it."
While heading to the mall, Li Peifeng learned the whole story from Huang Tianxuan, with Huang Haoye supplementing the details.
"At the time, when my sister showed us the photos, nobody really believed her, thinking she was lying to brush it off, until she showed us your WeChat Moment, then we were convinced it was true."
Li Peifeng asked in confusion, "What’s so hard to believe about that?"
Huang Tianxuan sneered a little, handed over her phone: "This is the photo I showed them."
On screen displayed the scene of Li Peifeng and Guli Nazha walking the red carpet, with Peifeng looking chic and dashing in a neat suit, like a superstar among superstars.
Was it because I’d gotten famous that Huang Tianxuan’s family didn’t believe? Thought she was joking?
Indeed I had become famous, for when I woke up this morning, those two trending searches about Li Peifeng had already climbed to second and fourth place on Weibo.
Thanks to Trinity Studio’s marketing efforts, the short video clips of Li Peifeng and Nazha walking the red carpet were also widely circulated on Douyin.
Within a night, the Douyin account "Worldly Breeze" had gained over a million followers, projected to reach four million within a week at this rate.
Even Zhihu now had quite a few questions about Li Peifeng, landing in the top fifty hotlist overnight: "What’s so appealing about the face of Worldly Breeze? How does it compare with his works?"
Surprisingly, there were really quite a few people seriously analyzing it.
It’s true that looks have always been the secret to online traffic, otherwise, the fresh-faced young stars wouldn’t still be so prevalent, whereas Li Peifeng with the halo of an ’author’ added a layer of ’talented’ aura and had gone viral with Nazha and the Endpoint gala’s heat extending beyond the web-novel and film circles.
But due to rising too quickly, Li Peifeng lacked self-awareness. Yet through this incident, he began to grasp some significance.
Perhaps Huang Tianxuan disclosed the romance to her parents, not just because of the pressure to marry, feeling cornered, but sensing Li Peifeng’s recent fame might ease the resistance of meeting her parents.
After all, the Huang family is a prestigious one, and Mr. and Mrs. Huang surely have high requirements for their future son-in-law. Previously with only Li Peifeng’s web-novel status and accompanying material basis, he surely wasn’t impressive in their eyes. Now that Li Peifeng had become famous, it might add some points to his image.
Secondly, Huang Tianxuan also felt some crisis. Li Peifeng had already met the other three, only her family hasn’t been met, it’s unrealistic to say she wasn’t anxious. So she wanted to pull in Li Peifeng to meet her parents, pushing the relationship forward a bit, avoiding him really being charmed by those starlets in the entertainment circle.
Finally, most likely Huang Tianxuan harbored thoughts of showing off to her family!
Just look, take a good look, isn’t this man handsome? Isn’t this man amazing? And he walked the red carpet with a big star, guess who he is?
A superstar? Guess again, he’s my boyfriend!
Staring at Huang Tianxuan’s seemingly calm face, tinged with reluctance, yet with the corners of her mouth slightly raised carrying a smile, Li Peifeng fell into thought.
"Li Peifeng, how does Nazha look off-camera? Does she look as good as on TV?"
Unable to resist curiosity, Huang Haoye actively started asking him.
"She’s okay."
Being a rather astute person, Li Peifeng immediately realized it was wrong after saying these two words, and casually added: "But not as good as your sister, not even a little bit. She’s too thin, doesn’t show on camera, but standing in front, you notice she’s a bit flat."
"You seem to know her figure quite well?"
But Huang Tianxuan apparently wasn’t too satisfied with this reply, said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile: "Of course, you’ve touched her, of course you know."
Li Peifeng gave her a warning glance, expressing dissatisfaction with Huang Tianxuan’s jealous antics, but Huang Haoye, either lacking a brainwave or something, surprisingly kept asking: "Does Nazha have a crush on you? And what about Zhong Chuxi, after knowing you’re my sister’s boyfriend, I specifically watched the live-stream replay and felt their looks at you were a bit odd..."
Li Peifeng looked at Huang Haoye with an equally odd look, laughed it off with a few hums, and Haoye went on chatting without care, still wanting to request Guli Nazha and Zhong Chuxi’s private WeChat.
Li Peifeng straightforwardly replied he didn’t have it, regardless of Haoye’s suspicious mumble, he turned to Huang Tianxuan and whispered: "Does your elder brother act like this too?"
