Losing such a well-behaved daughter or daughter-in-law truly breaks the heart.
Ahem, Xu Nancheng! Stop daydreaming all day. No one’s saying anything at home, but when you go out, you better be sharp. If we’re not going back, you’re the only one taking Lin Menghan with you. If she comes back with even a single hair missing, I’ll make sure you know what iron is made of!
After the scolding, Xu Nancheng looked at him with an innocent expression, opening his mouth but saying nothing; he was too stunned by the yelling. Lin Zhen and Lin Menghan both turned to look at him.
Lin Menghan quickly swallowed her food and waved her hand, saying, “Uncle, it’s not that serious. Nancheng treats me really well, like I’m his own sister.”
“Don’t defend him,” Lin Zhen interjected. “He deserves to be scolded.”
Lin Menghan didn’t know what else to say and obediently closed her mouth, looking at Xu Nancheng with sympathy.
Xu Nancheng sat to the side, thinking about how he had clearly been told yesterday that he would still be needed; she came just for him, not out of love. So love doesn’t disappear; it just shifts, right?
I will take good care of Lin Menghan. Xu Nancheng was determined to look after her, even though he felt troubled himself.
“You better!”
Seeing that his father was getting more and more carried away, Lin Zhen worried that Xu Zhao might really hurt their already fragile son. She quickly spoke up. “Alright, alright! Old Xu, why don’t you tone it down a bit? Yesterday, Xu Nancheng took good care of Lin Menghan.”
“Exactly! Uncle, Nancheng is actually a really nice person,” she wanted to say that he looked a bit foolish but held back; after all, they were in front of her parents.
“Alright! Xu Nancheng, your dad is right. Lin Menghan hasn’t been there before; you need to take good care of her and spend more time with her.”
“Okay, Mom, I got it.” He didn’t want this conversation to continue any longer.
The room fell silent for a few moments as Lin Menghan finished eating. She then asked, “Uncle and Auntie, what do Grandpa and Grandma like?”
“Oh dear, what do you need to bring for your grandparents?” Lin Zhen felt it was unnecessary to send gifts.
“Exactly! Lin Menghan, just your presence is enough; they’ll be so happy just to see you!” The couple didn’t plan on having her bring anything.
She turned her eyes and asked, "What do Grandpa and Grandma like?"
"They? Just bring some Sesame Paste; they love it the most," he replied.
"Okay! Thank you, Nancheng!" She smiled happily, feeling as if she had successfully plotted something.
Xu Zhao and his wife were momentarily taken aback, looking at Lin Menghan and then at Xu Nancheng, forgetting that there was this naive young man among them.
Yet, their hearts were still filled with joy, for Lin Menghan was simply too well-behaved and understanding, which made everyone adore her even more.
Before long, Xu Nancheng and the others set out.
Exiting from the other side of the community, they walked across an ancient stone arch bridge. This stone bridge resembled an old man silently guarding the passage of time, witnessing the flow and changes of the years. As they stepped onto the bridge, it felt as if they could truly sense the passage of time. The gentle sound of flowing water beneath the bridge resembled a melodious tune, flowing slowly alongside the footsteps of passersby.
Crossing this bridge brought them much closer to the bus station.
There were shops over there as well. Lin Menghan not only bought Sesame Paste but also picked out clothes for both of them. Of course, Xu Nancheng paid for it since Lin Menghan had no money.
Once on the bus, the environment was quite pleasant.
Not long after departure, Lin Menghan began to feel drowsy; she yawned and closed her eyes.
Xu Nancheng watched Lin Menghan sleeping beside him and suddenly remembered that he needed to thank Xu Dong and his partner.
He took out his phone, opened Green Bubble, typed a message, and sent it.
【Three Great Warriors】
【Xingchen: Is everyone here?】
【Dongfeng Po: Long live! Nancheng sent a message!】
【Yi: What did Nancheng say?】
【Xingchen: It’s about yesterday’s matter.】
【Dongfeng Po: Are you talking about his sister? Is he really going to help me?】
【Yi: Nancheng! Are you really going to help him?】
Xu Nancheng stared at the screen, feeling speechless.
After thinking for a while, he finally decided to type and send a message.
【Xingchen: I’m sorry about yesterday; I truly apologize!】
It wasn't really a big deal, and one could even say he wasn't at fault. It was just that he had let his imagination run wild, leading him to fear that his brothers might ignore him. So, he used the words he felt could best express his apology.
【Yi: What do you mean?】
Xu Nancheng was quite sensitive, even when it came to his own brothers. Since they were chatting through text, he couldn't see their expressions. When he read that line, he instinctively felt they were questioning him.
He was stunned, completely taken aback! His heart felt cold, and his heartbeat quickened; he was terrified of losing them. After a long pause, he finally mustered the courage to send a message.
【Xingchen: Can you please let me explain? (Crying)】
