Chapter 313 Zhu Jing was locked up at home by her parents

At this moment, Zhao Zhaodi poked her head out and said with a grin:

"Dad, you should have done this a long time ago."

Zhao Nana and Zhao Yina also peeked out one after another.

Zhao Yuan feigned anger and snorted, saying...

"Girls are like birds that cannot stay at home once they grow up; it's better when they're young."

As he spoke, Zhao Yuan patted Zhao Nana and Zhao Yina's heads with obvious affection.

At this moment, Lin Fangfang came out of the kitchen carrying dishes, smiling and saying:

“Brother Yuan, stop lamenting there. Right now, Zhaodi and Laidi are just dating. When they get married, will you cry yourself to death in the bathroom? Or should we marry you off along with your daughter?”

"You have four daughters, which daughter's family will you marry your father off to?"

Zhao Lai Di said with a smile.

"Alright, alright, stop joking around. Come and eat. The most important thing is for the whole family to eat happily together."

Everyone sat around the dining table, and the atmosphere became harmonious and warm. Zhao Laidi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a heavy weight had finally been lifted from her heart.

After dinner, Nana and Yina took charge of clearing the table and washing the dishes, and the house quickly returned to quiet.

It was a bitterly cold winter morning in Beijing, with snowflakes falling heavily. A biting wind howled through the streets and alleys, and large, fluffy snowflakes fell in abundance, covering the entire city in a thick layer of silver.

Suddenly, a rapid telephone ring broke the silence in the main room.

Lin Fangfang, who was knitting at the table, put down her needlework when she heard the phone ring. She got up and quickly walked to the telephone, then reached out to answer it.

A clear and pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Auntie, hello! I'm Muli, and I'm looking for Zhao Zhaodi."

Lin Fangfang smiled and replied:

"Oh, it's Muli. Okay, I'll go get her right away."

After saying that, she gently placed the telephone receiver back next to the telephone, then turned and walked towards Zhao Zhaodi's room.

"Zhao Di, come out quickly, Mu Li is looking for you!"

Lin Fangfang knocked on the door and called out loudly.

A moment later, the door opened, and Zhao Zhaodi rushed out of the room with a look of confusion on her face.

Zhao Zhaodi rushed to the telephone, grabbed the receiver, and asked urgently:

"Muli, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry to find me?"

Mu Li, on the other end of the phone, said in a somewhat anxious tone:

"Zhao Di, something bad has happened! Zhu Jing is being locked up at home by her parents and won't be allowed to go out. She's really depressed. We're all so close to her, we have to go over there and talk to her!"

"Did you say what?"

Zhao Zhaodi asked in confusion.

"She didn't say, but I guess it's related to her relationship. Her mother kept crying."

Muli answered with a frown.

"Oh, I see. Okay, I'll be right there."

Zhao Zhaodi finished speaking hurriedly and then hung up the phone.

Then he turned and shouted into the house:

"Mom, Zhu Jing seems to have run into some trouble. I have to go and check on her right away!"

Before she finished speaking, she had already started walking towards the door.

"Okay, but it's snowing heavily outside, so be careful on the road!"

Lin Fangfang hurriedly ran out from the inner room and gave her instructions.

"Okay, Mom, don't worry!"

Zhao Zhaodi casually agreed, but she had already gotten on her bicycle and sped out of the courtyard.

Snowflakes fluttered down, turning the world into a pristine white expanse.

Zhao Zhaodi pedaled her bicycle with all her might against the wind and snow. The cold wind lashed her face like a knife, but she didn't care. All she could think about was getting to Zhu Jing's house as soon as possible and finding out what had happened.

Finally, when Zhao Zhaodi arrived at Zhu Jing's house, she found that Yan Meili, Mu Li, and Shen Shanshan had already arrived.

"Zhao Di, you've finally arrived! Come in and try to persuade Zhu Jing. This girl is completely obsessed. She insists on dating that male classmate of hers, and she keeps saying that after graduation she will go back to his hometown to live with him."

I only have one precious daughter. If she marries someone from so far away, I might not even see her once a year. What if she suffers mistreatment in her husband's family? She won't even have any family members to support her... Waaah..."

As Zhu Jing's mother sobbed, she clutched her chest tightly with her hand, her face pale and looking extremely pained.

"Auntie, please don't get so anxious! We need to have a good talk with Zhu Jing first, and figure out the specific situation before making any plans. Auntie, please take good care of yourself, and don't let this make you sick."

While gently comforting Zhu Jing's mother, Zhao Zhaodi patted her back lightly.

Then, everyone walked together toward Zhu Jing's door.

"Zhu Jing, please open the door! It's me, Zhao Di. Meili, Muli, and Shen Shanshan have all come to see you!"

Zhao Zhaodi stood in front of the door and called softly.

However, there was no response from inside the house for a long time, and time passed by second by second.

Finally, after a long wait, a soft "click" was heard, and the door slowly opened.

Zhao Zhaodi, Mu Li, Yan Meili, and Shen Shanshan filed in and quickly entered Zhu Jing's slightly dimly lit room.

Zhu Jing was curled up on the bed, her eyes red and swollen, her face streaked with tears. Zhao Zhaodi quickly went to the bedside and sat down, taking Zhu Jing's hand and asking with concern:

"Zhu Jing, what happened? Have you already told your parents?"

Upon hearing her friend's question, Zhu Jing could no longer suppress her inner grievances and pain, and tears streamed down her face like a burst dam. She sobbed as she said:

"Waaaaah... I just wanted to bring him back so my parents could meet him, but who knew they would react so strongly when they heard he wasn't a local from Beijing! They kicked him out without saying a word, and didn't even let him have a meal before sending him away."

And he wouldn't let me go out to see him, he even threatened me that if I didn't break off all contact with him immediately, he wouldn't let me continue my university studies! Waaaaah…”

With a face full of tenderness, Zhao Zhaodi gently embraced Zhu Jing and comforted her in an extremely gentle voice:

"Zhu Jing, don't be so sad. Your face is almost covered in tears! Let's think of a solution together. After all, finding a way to solve the problem is the most important thing."

Just then, Muli quickly came closer and said with concern:

"Dear Zhu Jing, the reason your aunt and uncle are so worried is because they're afraid you'll suffer hardship if you marry someone from a faraway place. Have you seriously considered how to successfully persuade them?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Jing simply shook her head slightly. After a while,
