âYou two are seriously limitless in showing off your love!â
âSizhe, why does it sound so awkward coming from your mouth? Are you talking about yourself?â Jian Dan asked, gesturing with her chin toward Yuanyuan standing beside her.
âOf course Iâm not talking about myself. Iâm just feeling sad for all the single souls present here. Me? How could I possibly be tormented by love? What a joke!â Sizhe said, trying to sound tough.
âSince when have you been so kind-hearted?â
âIâve always been kind! Havenât you heard the saying âa doctorâs heart is a benevolent oneâ? As a doctor, caring for others is perfectly normal,â he insisted.
âUncle, how come I feel like throwing up even though I havenât started eating yet?â@@novelbin@@
âWhat are you all talking about?â Shang Simiao approached and inquired.
âUncle Simiao, long time no see~â Jian Dan greeted Shang Simiao.
âJian Jian is here too, getting prettier and prettier!â
âCough cough~â Chu Liyuan deliberately coughed twice after hearing Shang Simiaoâs comment.
This guy was still the same, he never had any reasoning when it came to matters concerning Jian Dan.
But today should be really interesting! Shang Simiao thought to himself.
Actually, there would be a special guest today, and this personâs relationship with Chu Liyuan was no ordinary one. Before he met Jian Dan, she was probably the only person who could render Chu Liyuan powerless.
Shang Simiao intentionally didnât inform Chu Liyuan of her return today because he wanted to see how Chu Liyuan would handle it. Catching Chu Liyuan off guard was not an easy feat.
Chu Liyuan could sense something was amiss from Shang Simiaoâs smile and felt that something might happen today, but in his wildest dreams, he didnât expect it to be her return.
âUncle Chu~â Before Chu Liyuan could figure out what was going on with Shang Simiao, there was already someone in his armsâ¦
This person he didnât need to see the face; he knew who it was just from the voice, âLittle Ying?â
âUncle Chu, it has been so long, did you miss me?â A young, innocent face smiled up at Chu Liyuan.
Chu Liyuan was originally holding Jian Danâs hand, but the force of the embrace had caused their hands to part.
Jian Dan watched the scene before her in a daze~
The moment Chu Liyuan realized he was being hugged, he quickly pushed Little Ying away and turned his head to look in Jian Danâs directionâ¦
âUncle Chu, what are you looking at?â Little Ying also turned her gaze toward Jian Dan.
Little Ying walked slowly towards Jian Dan, âAre you Jian Dan?â she asked bluntly.
It was only then that Jian Dan came back to her senses, âYou areâ¦?â
âChen Xirui~ Iâve been by Uncle Chuâs side since I was little. Iâm Uncle Chuâs favorite person!â Chen Xirui introduced herself confidently.
âFavoriteâ¦â Jian Danâs tongue suddenly tied, and she couldnât speak clearly.
âLittle Ying, donât talk nonsense!â Chu Liyuan interjected, noticing Jian Danâs expression.
âIâm not talking nonsense! I am Uncle Chuâs favorite person!â
âLittle Ying?â But wasnât her name Chen Xirui?
âIn this world, only Uncle Chu can call me Little Ying!â Chen Xirui spoke, hands on her hips.
Chu Liyuan walked over to Jian Danâs side, tightly holding her hand, âYou are my favorite~ junior!
This is my wife, and you should consider her a senior. You can call her Aunt Jian!â
At the moment Chu Liyuan took her hand, Jian Danâs heart settled a bit.
âI donât acknowledge that! Uncle Chu, you said you would take care of me for life. Are you going back on your word?â
âI never regret what Iâve said. If I promised to take care of you, I will take care of you!â
âIf youâre going to take care of me, then why did you marry her?â
âI will always take care of you as a senior, and that will never change.
As for why I married Jian Jian, thatâs even simpler. Itâs because I love her!â
âUncle Chu, why do you love her? Whatâs so good about her? Am I not comparable to her?
You used to say I was too young, not mature enough, so I have always been improving myself, trying to become someone who matches you. But why is it that when Iâm finally at the age to match you, youâve married someone else?
And itâs a younger lass at that!â
âWhen you meet that person, you will realize that age has never been the issue!â
âThen why did you tell me that at the time?â
âIt can only be said that you are not the destined one for me; consequently, age became an issue.
I think even if you had been the same age as me then, I likely would have found other reasons to reject you,â Chu Liyuan said candidly.
Chu Liyuan had such a straightforward explanation for a reason; that was to eliminate any doubts in Jian Jianâs mind and to tell her that she was indeed the one he loved the most!
