Chapter 249 Reminiscing the Past
Chapter 249 Reminiscing the Past
Before they knew it, it was already past ten o'clock. Xiaomai and Xi Yan had almost finished their conversation. She came over, put her arm around He Lingting and asked, "Uncle, are you guys done drinking?"
He Lingting lowered his head and kissed Xiaomai's forehead and asked, "Are you tired?"
"Okay!"
"Then let's go home." He Lingting said to the other three people, "Let's stop drinking here today! We'll get together another day."
Bai Chen was unhappy when he heard this, "Ting, what do you mean? It's only what time is it now!"
"My wife is tired, do you have any objection?" He Lingting replied coldly.
"Ah! Listen to this, what kind of excuse is this? If your sister-in-law is tired, she can rest over there. Will it disturb you from drinking?" Bai Chen is a lonely man now. After all the effort to get together, he doesn't want to disperse early and go home to watch TV alone.
"Go home and rest comfortably."
"Haotian, look at him, he doesn't care about his brother anymore because he has a wife. You only think about your wife's comfort. Have you ever thought about how your brother feels when he goes home alone in an empty room?" Bai Chen would never let everyone leave, as he hadn't finished drinking yet.
"That's your ability, you can't find a wife." Lu Haotian said indifferently, making Bai Chen so angry that he almost choked on the wine.
"Who are you saying is incompetent? I just don't want to be restricted so early. Alas, I have no right to say that I am you. I haven't found a wife, but it's like you have. You are older than me." Bai Chen said unhappily.
"Who said I couldn't find it? I just didn't want to find it."
As soon as Lu Haotian finished speaking, Xiaomai came over and asked gossipingly, "Brother, do I have a sister-in-law?"
"Where is the sister-in-law? There is none."
"So what did you say just now? Is there something wrong? Tell the truth quickly, otherwise I will tell my parents when I get home." Xiaomai threatened Lu Haotian.
"Little sister, your brother just won't accept it and is mad at me. Look at his stern face all day long. Which woman is blind enough to be attracted by him?" Bai Chen said.
"Who said that? What's wrong with my brother? My brother looks handsome and unrestrained like a soldier. He may be a little cold, but he is still very popular with girls." If Xiaomai hadn't met He Lingting, she would also like guys like her brother.
"Yes! You don't know that most girls nowadays like men with some personality, especially those who are cool and rich, right, Xiaomai?" Xi Yan also came over and said.
"Well, really? I don't know!" Xiaomai was confused by Xi Yan's question.
"How could you not know? Didn't you interpret it perfectly? You found the coldest and coolest one." Xi Yan said, looking at He Lingting meaningfully.
"Ah! You stinky Yanyan, you are mocking me." Xiaomai looked at the way everyone was looking at her before she realized that they were talking about her.
"Oh! By the way, sister-in-law, I'm also puzzled. Ting is handsome and rich, but his personality! I really can't say anything good about it! With that stinky and cold expression, how could you like him?" Bai Chen was also unwilling to accept the fact. He was handsome enough, had money, and most importantly, had a gentle personality. Why hadn't he met a girl like Xiaomai!
"Uncle, how can it be as exaggerated as you say?"
"Is it an exaggeration? Let us tell you, am I exaggerating?" Bai Chen really felt that he was telling the truth!
"Yes! Little sister, I also wonder why you fell in love with him? Or did he force you?" Lu Haotian also started gossiping.
He Liting was also curious why the little girl was not afraid of him at the beginning.
"He didn't force me. When I first met the uncle, I didn't have the chance to see if he was cold or not. In that critical moment of life and death, I just thought about saving people first!" Xiaomai recalled.
"Sister-in-law, I have to say it. You are so brave! What if you save a bad guy, won't you be crippled?" Xu Chen said.
"What if? There's so much of a chance of that happening! The uncle doesn't look like a bad guy! Besides, he was injured at the time, so he couldn't do anything bad even if he wanted to." Xiaomai gave Xu Chen a cold look.
"Achen, you don't know how powerful Xiaomai's kung fu is. She can easily defeat five or six bandits by herself. What does she have to worry about?" Xi Yan said exaggeratedly.
"Is this true? Little sister, are you really that good? I must cut and rub it someday." Lu Haotian discovered that Xiaomai was also a master.
"Don't listen to Yanyan's nonsense, I just know a little self-defense Kung Fu." Xiaomai said.
"Actually, I just didn't want anything to happen to the uncle. Then he had a seizure in the middle of the night, which was really heartbreaking. Most importantly, I didn't find him as cold-hearted as you said! He has always been very gentle to me." Xiaomai said as she recalled.
"Oh, so my cousin treats us differently!" Xu Chen said to He Lingting with disdain.
"Of course, I have chosen her." When He Lingting said this, the whole audience fell silent. Yes! He Lingting had chosen Xiaomai, and all his coldness turned into tenderness. This is the power of true love!
Thinking back on this, Xiaomai really feels very happy. Thinking about the past between the uncle and her now, it is still quite thrilling. Although the process was a bit fast, the feeling of being moved is still there.
"Well, I shouldn't have brought up this topic. Now I've been fed another round of dog food." Bai Chen slapped his forehead in regret, causing the others to burst out laughing.
Everyone talked and played for a while. He Lingting saw that the little girl was really tired and said, "It's too late today, let's go!"
This time Bai Chen did not obstruct them. He saw that the two girls were really tired. They finished the wine in their glasses, put on their coats and left.
Bai Chen really didn't want to go back alone, so he dragged Lu Haotian back to his home. Xu Chen took Xi Yan back to his home. He Lingting and Xiaomai wanted to go home, but suddenly Xiaomai said, "Uncle, let's stay at our little nest tonight!"
"Okay." He Lingting knew that the night had brought back memories of the little girl, and he also missed her a little.
The two went straight to the nest. Xiaomai opened the door, turned on the light, and looked around the room. Although the room had been redecorated, the scene of their first meeting was still vivid in her mind.
He Lingting went to the kitchen to boil some water, poured it for Xiaomai and left it on the table to cool. Then he went to the bathroom to turn on the hot water, and when he came out he found the little girl sitting on the bed in a daze.
He Lingting went over and picked up Xiaomai and asked, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
"Uncle, my heart aches when I think of the headache you have when the disease attacks. I'm really worried. Let's go to the hospital one day. It would be best if he can be cured." He Lingting's heterosexuality has always been a concern for Xiaomai. She is very worried that it will have an impact on the uncle's health.
"Okay, let's go check it out someday. It doesn't matter even if it can't be cured. Your husband's headache won't hurt as long as you're with him." He Lingting said to the little girl to comfort her.
"What if I'm not here? You're going to hurt yourself again."
"Then baby will always be by my side!"
"After such a long time, don't you find me annoying?"
"How is that possible? I hope we can stick together for the rest of our lives." He Lingting hugged Xiaomai tightly and whispered in her ear.
Xiaomai shuddered, hugged the uncle back and said with a smile: "Okay, let's stick together forever."
Afterwards, the two of them took a shower, changed into pajamas, and snuggled into bed, reminiscing about the past when they first met. It felt so sweet...
