Chapter 330 - 330: Are You Going To Sneak Out In The Middle Of The Night?
Lin Wan heard their conversation. She guessed that Tiantian was planning to come to Yun City and Yang Ruoxi wanted him to stay at some hotel.
“He can stay here in Xuecheng,” said Lin Wan softly.
There were six rooms in the Lin family’s old house. Lin Wan and Auntie Bao could clean up the other rooms. It was more comfortable than staying at a hotel.
“Why don’t you talk to your father and see how he reacts? Or are you going to sneak out of your house in the middle of the night every day while I’m there?” said Tiantian. He had already shown her picture to his family, and they liked Yang Ruoxi very much.
Tiantian’s family wasn’t very conservative. When he told his family about his last girlfriend, they were happy for him. After his breakup, his parents comforted him, but his grandparents hadn’t talked to him for days.
Yang Ruoxi was his second girlfriend. After the breakup with his last girlfriend, he hadn’t wanted to date, but he found Yang Ruoxi. He wanted to study abroad, so he thought it would be difficult to maintain a long-distance relationship. That was what he felt until he met Yang Ruoxi. She was studying at the same university as him, and both of them were from China.
“If I find an opportunity to broach the subject, I’ll tell him. When are you coming to Yun City? I can pick you up.” The airport was far away from Yang Ruoxi’s place, but the airport bus could reach the village she was in. However, Yang Ruoxi wanted to go get him because she wanted to show her gratitude.
“Just send me a link to your location. I’ll go there by myself. I know you live nrettv far awav from the airnort-”
“Let me pick you up. I can drive,” said Yang Ruoxi.
“No need. Just wait for me, alright?”
“He’s coming here?” asked Lin Wan teasingly. “Should I tell Papa Yang about him?”
Yang Ruoxi pulled Lin Wan back. “You’re not allowed to say anything. I’ll tell my dad when Tiantian arrives. I already sent him the location. He’s going to stay at a hotel for now. If he stays in your old house, Auntie Bao will tell my dad about it.”
“Why don’t you tell him? I know Papa Yang wants you to get married. I don’t think he’ll be angry at you for having a boyfriend.” Lin Wan didn’t know why Yang Ruoxi was so worried.
Yang Ruoxi was conflicted. Her grandmother always pestered her to get married, but Yang Ruoxi had always refused. She always told her grandmother and her father that she was too young for something like that.
Yang Ruoxi wondered whether her father and grandmother would feel like she had lied to them all this while. Yang Ruoxi didn’t know how her family might react. She didn’t want to tell them unless she knew for sure that her relationship would last longer this time. In her previous world, every relationship had ended in a breakup.
She didn’t want to tell her family until she was absolutely sure that her boyfriend was the one for her. Her family was a little conservative. She didn’t want them to think that she wasn’t serious about it.
“I just… can’t tell them. I don’t want them to think badly of me just because I have had many relationships in my life.”
Li Wan had told Lin Wan about Yang Ruoxi’s relationships. She probably had four or five exes. For Li Yanchen, loving someone once was enough for a lifetime.
Li Yanchen gave them space. “You two should figure out a way to tell Papa
Yang.”
“Yeah,” said Lin Wan. “Xixi, you should tell him later when he is in a good mood. You’re serious about your relationship this time, right?”
Yang Ruoxi wasn’t someone who stayed put in a relationship if she wasn’t happy. She was always clear about what she wanted in a relationship, and if her boyfriends couldn’t agree with it, she would just break up with them. However, she had mentioned Tiantian so many times today. Lin Wan felt that Yang Ruoxi was serious about him this time.
“Shouldn’t you be worried about me?” said Yang Ruoxi. “I’m supposed to be your friend.”
“Aww… are you that hurt?”
“You two can talk for a while. I’ll take a walk around the village to give you some space,” said Li Yanchen.
“Xixi, you’re not a naive, young girl anymore. Don’t be so frivolous. If you find someone you like, cherish them.”
“I’m very serious about my relationship this time,” said Yang Ruoxi.
Lin Wan sighed wearily. “Think of a way to tell Papa Yang.”
“Oh, my dad will be fine with it. My dad and my grandmother always leave the decision of my life to me. I think they’ll understand.”
“That’s good. You just tell them that you have a boyfriend and see how they react,” said Lin Wan. “It’s better to be honest about it.”
“Just tell them outright… Shouldn’t I try to find out how they feel first?”
“You just said that your father and your grandmother are okay with you making your own decisions. Give them a chance. I think they will love whoever you choose. Don’t hide it. Just go and tell them.”
“If Tiantian arrives tomorrow, do you want to meet him?” asked Yang Ruoxi.
“Of course. I have a live broadcast tomorrow afternoon, but if Tiantian is coming, I can postpone it,” said Lin Wan.
Li Yanchen walked alone around the village. It was getting colder. He decided to head back.
In the Lin family’s living room, Auntie Bao washed and cut some fruits for
everyone. She also heated a pot of milk and waited for others.
It had been a long time since someone had taken care of Yang Yiren like this. He was moved.
Auntie Bao saw Yang Yiren looking at the apple in his hand. “Is it too sour? I can add some sugar for you..”
