Chapter 435: Is there someone in An Erge's heart? (Extra Chapter 2)

~7 min read 1,382 words

It was six o'clock in the evening, and Fang Hong had also finished work and returned to the Dayuan.

As for Yun Ge, there was no need to mention him; he was still in Heilongjiang Province and couldn't come back.

Yun Yan was at military school, so it was impossible to get in touch with him at all.

"Mom."

"Grandma."

Yun Fei and Yun Bi walked in from outside, speaking to the old lady on the sofa first.

This was only after Beibei had tried to persuade them every which way, practically dragging them into the room.

"You're back? Go sit and rest for a while." The old lady looked up at the two of them.

Yun Bi walked to the side and nudged Yun Qi, "An Erge, Grandma is..."

Yun Qi looked in that direction and said in a low voice, "Waiting for Nan Nan."

Yun Bi frowned, "Nan Nan only arrived at school this morning; the school has procedures to go through, so she probably can't come back today. Who told Grandma?"

Yun Qi also sighed; who among them didn't understand?

Nan Nan was so busy; it would be very late by the time she finished the school's procedures.

She would probably still have to go check on the shop.

"When Big Uncle called home, Grandma eavesdropped!" He looked at Yun Bi helplessly.

Yun Bi met his gaze; fine then!

An Xiangbei had been staying by Grandmother's side the whole time.

"Is Nan Nan not coming back?" Grandmother looked at the whole family; everyone who could come back had returned now. Was it because they were afraid she would be sad?

She wasn't sad; she knew Nan Nan had returned safely.

She wasn't worried anymore!

"Who said I wasn't coming back?" As soon as An Yinan entered the room, she heard Grandmother asking cautiously.

Her heart suddenly ached!

"Nan Nan!" Grandmother stood up in a hurry.

An Yinan threw her things directly to Beibei, then hugged Grandmother's waist, listening to her heartbeat, "Grandmother, I'm back."

The old woman, who had just been agitated, gently stroked her hair.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"

The old woman just repeated the same sentence, but her eyes were wet, and she couldn't bear to let go of Nan Nan.

The whole family finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If Nan Nan hadn't come back today, Grandmother probably wouldn't have been able to sleep.

"Nan Nan hasn't eaten yet, right? Come over and eat!" Liu Xicai had the three younger ones bring the food out.

An Yinan let go of Grandmother and wiped her tears, "It is my lack of filial piety for making Grandmother worry."

Grandmother tapped her lightly, but fearing she might hurt her, she gently rubbed the spot after tapping.

"Didn't your Big Uncle teach you?"

"One cannot have both home and country."

"You went to the Frontline for the country, and I naturally have others to take care of me."

"Don't say that again in the future!"

Grandmother looked at her with a stern face.

An Yinan nodded, "I won't say it again."

Only then did Grandmother smile, taking her hand, "Let's go eat!"

"Your Big Aunt stewed chicken soup for you; it's so fragrant, even Grandmother wanted to sneak a taste." Grandmother looked at An Yinan, her eyes seemingly glued to her, unwilling to look away at all.

Yun Qi, Yun Bi, and Beibei looked at each other.

Fine!

They didn't have any objections.

The key was, they didn't dare to!

Yun Bi had returned a few times during that period to escort supplies to the Frontline.

Grandmother could still see him from time to time.

Only Nan Nan hadn't been back for over two years.

"You've lost weight!" Grandmother put food in her bowl, and the small bowl was soon piled into a small mountain, "Eat more."

An Yinan smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll eat everything Grandmother gives me."

Liu Xicai ladled a bowl of chicken soup for her, "Silkie chickens are hard to buy right now, so just drink this for now. When Big Aunt buys a Silkie, I'll stew a good soup and have them send it to you."

An Yinan quickly waved her hands, "No need, no need. There are restaurants outside now, I can just go there to eat."

The times had changed a lot now, and many of their own shops had been set up.

Especially some snack bars and restaurants.

"How can the food outside be as good as home-cooked?" Fang Hong looked at An Yinan in disapproval.

"Your Second Aunt's cooking is beyond words. You've been eating in the cafeteria for so many years; if you asked me to stew soup, I suspect you wouldn't be able to drink it."

"After your Big Aunt finishes stewing the soup, have your An Erge deliver it to you." Fang Hong decided it directly.

The key was the final jab, which made Yun Qi want to cry.

"Anyway, he has nothing to do and no partner; he's just idling around."

Just as Fang Hong finished speaking, Big Aunt and Big Uncle said nothing.

Grandmother also looked at him with a face full of disdain.

An Yinan blinked; was this a roundabout way of urging marriage?

But An Erge's age was indeed not young anymore; calculating it like this, he was almost thirty?

"Maybe he's too old? Hard to find a partner?" Others wouldn't dare say it, but An Yinan asked it.

Yun Qi immediately looked at her, then saw it was Nan Nan.

Fine! He could beat, scold, and scheme against those younger ones.

Nan Nan said it?

Oh!

"You think so too, right?" Fang Hong immediately found a kindred spirit.

Whenever she complained to the eldest sister-in-law, the eldest sister-in-law would protect him, "He's too outstanding, naturally he needs to look around more."

An old man pushing thirty, what is he being picky about?

It would be good enough if others didn't reject him!

An Yinan looked at Yun Qi; seeing his unnatural appearance, why did she always feel like something was going on?

"My An Erge, is there someone in your heart?"

"Cough, cough." Yun Qi, who had just taken a sip of chicken soup, nearly spat it out.

The whole family looked over at him.

After wiping his mouth, Yun Qi looked at everyone's gazes.

"What's wrong? Didn't I wipe it clean?" he asked strangely.

Fang Hong said, "Is there someone in your heart?"

Although her own son didn't grow up by her side, they got along more like friends.

She had also told Yun Qi that whoever he took a fancy to, he should naturally protect them himself.

Even if she didn't like them, she wouldn't interfere in their affairs.

A life for two, after all, has to be lived by the two of them.

If Yun Qi had someone in his heart, he shouldn't be hiding it from her.

Yun Qi thought for a moment, "There is someone, but I haven't pursued them yet."

An Yinan looked at him and shook her head helplessly, "An Erge, let me give you a piece of advice."

Yun Qi didn't understand; hadn't this topic shifted a bit too much?

"What?" he asked.

"If that person is already in your heart, then pursue them with your own sincerity; don't play any schemes!"

An Yinan said solemnly; An Erge seemed like a gentle person, but he was the hardest to get close to.

Only with family could he let down all his defenses.

It wouldn't work with anyone outside.

An Yinan was too afraid of his habitual underhanded tactics; scheming in a relationship? That was destined to be a total loss.

"If you like someone, pestering them is fine, pursuing them relentlessly is fine, but you must absolutely not have any schemes."

"An Erge, scheming has become your instinct; you consciously cultivate your own scheming, calculating the gains and losses in everything, and wanting to calculate the path for everything."

"Perhaps in your work, it will allow you to achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"But, relationships are precisely what cannot withstand scheming."

"If you love, then touch them with your true heart; even if you get hurt or feel pain, that is also a characteristic of love."
