Chapter 551: Chapter 525: Sudden Happiness
“…You’ve said enough!!!”
“Xiao Mei, you are so twisted. On one hand, you hope I can understand you, and on the other hand, you hope that once I do understand, I won’t say anything and just keep it to myself. You’ve made such a fuss, but in the end, it’s all the same. If he faces the challenges and solves your inner troubles, you’ll reluctantly think that he can match your mother while showing him who you are, and let him know that there’s a smart person in your family to keep him in check. If Director Liao retreats in the face of difficulty, you can just keep him at a distance. How can a young girl like you have such deep strategies? You win either way!”
If Father Liao gave up because of her words and refused to let go of his position as Dean, then Qian Bao definitely wouldn’t want her mother to be humiliated. If Liao didn’t win over Xiao Qian, he wouldn’t even be able to touch her mother’s hair.
Even if he could get Xiao Qian’s approval, he would know that there are some powerful people in Jia Xiufang’s family. In the future, if they really get together, he wouldn’t mess around like Chen Lin.
Her mom might be a little confused, but she gave birth to a clever daughter. With Xiao Qian around, no one could make her mom suffer even a bit.
Xiao Qian thought she was being subtle, but Yu Minglang saw through it all and even mentioned it in a joking tone.
“Let’s go home!” Xiao Qian’s voice was a bit heavy.
“I’m not sleeping on the floor!” Honestly, sacrificing Xiao Xiaoqiang for the sake of a happy mouth is unacceptable.
“I won’t make you sleep on the floor.”
Huh, happiness out of nowhere?
“Why?” Xiao Qiang was stunned.

“Stop asking so many pointless questions!” Xiao Qian was angry and embarrassed.
He’s such a fool, being smart when he shouldn’t be and acting stupid when he should be smart. Why does he even need to ask such questions?
He chuckled, “Baby, your tsundere expression is too cute, but I’m very satisfied!”
When they got to the entrance of the neighborhood, Xiao Qian suddenly said something seemingly out of nowhere.
“I think you’re right. Sometimes I can be quite stubborn. No matter what happens to her in the future, she may think I’m wrong.”
Yu Minglang touched her hair, “I like how you occasionally get stubborn for the people around you. All the ‘bad’ things you do for your family are based on the foundation of caring for them. Objectively speaking, you’re doing the right thing. If Director Liao can’t treat himself as an ordinary person when it comes to choosing a partner, then it’s true that they’re not suitable for each other. So, don’t burden yourself with guilt, elder brother is on your side.”
Before Xiao Qian could feel touched, Yu Minglang said earnestly, “Wait here for a moment, I’m going to buy something.”
The fruit store near the entrance is open late, Xiao Qian looked at him doubtfully, “Why are you eating fruits so late?”
“I’m going to buy a watermelon for you. My mom said your habit of drinking cold water is not good, but you can eat some non-cold watermelon. You’re quite the spendthrift, it’s good that we don’t meet often, otherwise every time I see you, I’d have to eat so much watermelon. It’s so expensive for off-season fruits, I’m afraid it will make me bankrupt.”
Yu Minglang had already walked several steps away when he sensed murderous intent from behind. He quickly dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the stone thrown by Xiao Qian.
“You don’t have to buy it!”
Xiao Qian was angry and embarrassed. The subtext of her words was, go ahead and try not to do it!
Her bad habits were known by her future mother-in-law. You idiot, Yu Minglang!
“For you, I’m willing to go bankrupt! Daughter-in-law, you eat however much you want, I will—— ”
“Get lost!”
They enjoyed their time together, passing it with the consumption of half a watermelon.
In the early morning, Yu Minglang reluctantly got out of bed. Xiao Qian seemed to sense that he was leaving and opened her eyes to see that he was already dressed in a suit. All her sleepiness vanished.
“From now on, my most hated color is black.” No exception.
Seeing him like this lets her know that he’s about to leave. Thinking about how in her past life, he would always leave without explanation, merely saying “be good” made her spit!
Her mood was inexplicably ugly.
But without a black suit, there would still be suits in various colors, and she would never be able to be with him forever.
“I bought another watermelon. Give it to aunt when you go home later. When you want to go back to school, call your eldest brother and ask him to arrange a ride for you. If you feel uncomfortable, write a letter or call me. Don’t keep it to yourself and secretly wash your hands, okay?”
“Huh…? Did you change sex?”
He didn’t just run away without explaining and actually said so much?!
Is this even Yu Minglang? It’s like a completely different person.
“Just you wait, next time I’ll make you eat a watermelon — a 12 pound one!” I will make you cry, you little girl!
“That’s not what I meant. I meant — why are you talking so much?”
“If I don’t talk a lot, who knows how stubborn you’ll be when you leave. Even with me by your side, you’re not happy. Is that fair to all the watermelon you’ve eaten?”
“…Just go, hurry up!”
Yu Minglang chuckled and kissed her cheek before turning around and leaving.
Xiao Qian lay down staring at the ceiling. His presence might be gone from the room, but it felt like he left something in her heart.
In her past life, she had been too straightforward, so Xiaoqiang didn’t bother explaining anything to her. It wasn’t that he didn’t care, but he thought she was too strong and some things didn’t need to be said.
Perhaps from now on, she should try to be less pretentious and occasionally show her true feelings in front of him, and maybe act like a little woman on occasion.
That’s how Xiao Qian went home, with her mother’s eyes a little swollen and a big watermelon in her arms, Jia Xiufang took it from her quickly.
“Seasonal watermelon doesn’t taste good and is too expensive. Why did you buy it?”
“Minglang bought it.”
“You little brat, you said you’d go back to school!” Jia Xiufang poked her head and Xiao Qian grinned.
“What time are you leaving? I’ll boil some eggs for you to take.”
A mother is always like this. Even though she knows her daughter lacks nothing, she still makes all sorts of preparations every time they part. The feeling of this bustling warmth is what home is all about.
That’s exactly the warmth Xiao Qian needed.
“I don’t need it. I don’t eat them. Mom, were you angry or upset about me getting involved in you and Uncle Liao’s business last night? If you’re feeling upset, tell me now, and I’ll help you for free.”
Xiao Qian has realized a lot now, and Xiao Qiang’s special way has untied her knot. Now she wants to talk to her mother.
“That matter, well, I don’t have the energy for it now. If you think it’s not suitable, then I’ll just move out. Now I just want to raise your brother well. You’re a smart kid, and I’m not worried about you. I’m just worried about your brother. By the time he’s old enough to be independent, you should have a child, and then I’ll be taking care of my grandchild. It will keep me busy ”
Jia Xiufang chatted while cutting the watermelon, and Xiao Qian’s nose tingled. She went up and hugged her mother’s pudgy waist.
