407 Approval!
Instead of going back to their respective houses, they went to Han Nanxian and Song Xueyun’s house. It had been so many days since they got settled into this house and she hadn’t been there. Today the couple had invited them for dinner. They were busy in their romance when the Han couple invited them.
When they reached there, Han Nanxian opened the door. He was very happy to see his brother and girlfriend there. He hugged them. As they went in, they saw Song Xueyun in the living room.
“You have a beautiful house, “An Xiulan commented. She could see why Somg Xueyun fell in love with this place. If it was her, she would have chosen this place too.
“I will give you a tour of the place, “The excited Song Xueyun said. She loved hearing her bestie saying that she approved of her choice.
“Alright, “An Xiulan was equally excited. She was very happy for Song Xueyun and wanted to see the new life her bestfriend was weaving.
They were touring the house while laughing and talking. It was so good to be together after a long time. They wondered how many changes their life might have in the future.
From teengars who used to visit each other’s house after school to adults who come for occasional dinner after a long tiring day of work. Life had changed a lot. There was a time when they had nothing but time for each other and now they had everything but time for each other. But still, they try to make space for each other in their busy schedules. It was not easy all the time but they tried their best.
Song Xueyun showed her the last room on the floor, “And this is the master bedroom.”
“Oh, it is the place where everything happens?” An Xiulan said with a grin.
An Xiulan and Shen Yue were the only girls who get to tease Song Xueyun like this and get away unscathed. Otherwise the ice queen was hard to be teased.
“Eew!” Song Xueyun lightly pushed her away and An Xiulan laughed.
“What!” An Xiulan asked, raising her brow.
Song Xueyun made a face and said, “You are so dirty!”
“I didn’t even say it in that context, “An Xiulan shrugged.
“What context?” Now Song Xueyun tried to be dumb. Only if it worked on An Xiulan.
An Xiulan suddenly said, “Xueyun! You are living the best life.”
“How so?” Song Xueyun asked.
An Xiulan answered, “You can stay with your man. You can cuddle him, kiss him, hug him whenever you want to but I can’t do the same.”
One could hear a hint of jealousy in An Xiulan’s words. She did not mind called jelaous of her bestie because she was. She was so kuch jealous of Song Xueyun at this time. She just realised how Han Zixin and Song Xueyun come to home together to the same place. They were not like her and Han Zixin who had so little time with each other. Although they cherish the time they had together, she still couldn’t help but wish to have more and more time with him.
Truly, she didn’t want to sound bitter but she was. Why Song Xueyun get to feel this and not her?
Then again, Han Nanxian went a decade long heartbreak to have this. She should be happy for them and not think about herself.
Song Xueyun asked, “Do you want to move in with Zixin?”
She could see clearly on An Xiulan’s face how deeply she had fallen for Han Zixin. If Han Zixin had fallen first for her, An Xiulan had fallen harder for him.
When she heard about these two, she was not suprised at all. From the their highschool days, she had this inkling that there was a high probability that these two would end up together because if even these two fell for someone else first, they would soon realise how much they were obsessed with each other. She had never seen two bestfriends falling for each other except these and she could say that there was nothing more beautiful than two bestfriends falling for each other.
Everyone was rooting for these two. Only, they could not see it. Thankfully, they finally realised that they belonged together.
An Xiulan looked at her and answered, “Mom will kill me and the men in my family will kill him.”
She knew very well that her family would never approve of her moving in with Han Zixin, no matter how much her family loved and trusted him. Her family was progressive but the men in her family were not that progressive. And they had just entered a relationship. Moving in would not be a wise step. They should give time to each other and this relationship.
Song Xueyun asked, “What happened to the brave An Xiulan?”
An Xiulan sighed and answered, “Even I know where I can be brave and where it will be stupidity.”
Taking a break, she added, “So, I will take my battle carefully.”
“Did you tell your family about him?” Song Xueyun asked later.
“Not yet, “An Xiulan answered..
Song Xueyun asked, “Are you planning to tell them soon?”
“We have to, right?” An Xiulan asked.
Song Xueyun nodded her head. It would be better of these two tell their family as soon as possible.
“What about you?” An Xiulan asked. She knew that Song Xueyun’s parents were not here. When they come, she had to tell them. She did not know how Mr and Mrs Song would take this news. Mrs Song was a cool woman but Mr Song wasn’t very cool. Han Nanxian would have a lot of grilling to do if he wanted to win them. After all, he fucked up by leaving Song Xueyun alone all those years ago. It was Mr and Mrs Song who had to pick up their only child’s heart when a jerk broke it with his overthinking.
They liked Han Zixin and they used to like Han Nanxian a lot too. So, it might not be a big hassale for Han Nanxian. She was interested to see how Han Nanxian and Song Xueyun’s story would turn out.
Song Xueyun answered, “I am waiting for my parents to come back from their vacation. I will tell them as soon as they come.”
An Xiulan asked the million dollar question, “Will your mom be okay with you staying with Han Nanxian?”
“Maybe?” Song Xueyun said. Wasn’t a wife supposed to live with her husband? They would be sad that she married without telling them but atleast she was not living with a man without marraige, right? She could save her ass, right?
“You have a long battle ahead of you, “An Xiulan said with a sigh.
“So do you, “Song Xueyun answered.
An Xiulan muttered, “I am thinking what my family’s reaction would be if they got to know about me and Han Zixin.”
Song Xueyun rolled her eyes, “Sis, your family will be happy. They will be surprised but they will not be that surprised. I mean, they would have no qualms about him. Because it is him. They know him all through their lives. They would be happy to know that you are with someone like him.”
An Xiulan nodded her head. “There is a plus one in my case. My family loves him.”
Song Xueyun said, “See, you have nothing to worry about. You should be quick and tell them as soon as possible.”
When Song Xueyun set meeting between her aunt and her husband, it was cancelled due to some reasons. She was panicking inside. Her aunt couldn’t come and it was killing her inside. Her aunt was someone who could convince her father easily. She wanted her aunt on her side if she wanted to stay with Han Nanxian.
That dumbass waa making her fall for her each day. It was getting difficult for her to even imagine a world without him. She wanted her family to approve of him. She would not leave him even if they didn’t approve of him as she wanted a future with him.
“Let’s go and see what they are upto. We left them together for way too long.”
However, she wished for a peaceful life with him. It would only be possible with her parents blessings.

A/N: As children how much we crave for our parents’ approval for our relationships. I don’t even know why it is important except the fact that it is very important. Many times, we leave many relationships because of the fear that they will not approve of this person. I don’t even know what is the cure of this problem.
If someone has faced this in their lives, tell me in comments how do you made your parents approve of your partner. Was it easy? Did you face challenges?
Let’s see how our girls navigate with this problem. Will Song family approve of Nanxian easily?
