Seeing that Lu Jinnan didn't say anything, Bai Xiaonian looked at him. At the thought of Hong Jinyun's current situation, she wondered if Lu Jinnan would feel compassionate toward her …
Now that no one was taking care of Hong Jinyun, and it seemed like it was Hong Jinyun's mother who was the one who caused her father's cerebral infarction and hospitalization. Would Lu Jinnan take care of Hong Jinyun again after her mother returned to America?
Bai Xiaonian put down the fruit fork in her hand and asked Lu Jinnan, "Then, now that Hong Jinyun's mother has returned to America, are you going to continue to sponsor Hong Jinyun?"
Hearing this, Bai Xiaonian's father also looked at Lu Jinnan …
Bai Xiaonian's father suddenly felt conflicted. He selfishly hoped that Lu Jinnan wouldn't interfere, but he couldn't help but worry about what would happen to that child if no one cared for her.
Lu Jinnan smiled at Bai Xiaonian and said, "If I weren't married, I'd definitely interfere! But I'm married … I'm not alone. It's better for me to keep my distance from my ex-girlfriend! After all … even if I'm doing a good deed, the first thing I should care about is whether my wife feels comfortable! "
Hearing this answer, Bai Xiaonian's father felt happy from the bottom of his heart.
If he said he wouldn't interfere, he would seem too heartless …
If he said he would interfere, Lu Jinnan would have to consider Bai Xiaonian!
Moreover, after they got married, everything that belonged to Lu Jinnan would belong to Bai Xiaonian. He wouldn't be able to interfere just because he wanted to!
Sponsoring others could only be done when one's own life allowed it.
It couldn't be done at the cost of making his wife suffer.
Even Bai Xiaonian was surprised by Lu Jinnan's answer. She thought that Lu Jinnan's biggest concession would be to discuss with her and see if he could sponsor Hong Jinyun.
Bai Xiaonian's lips curled up, feeling touched.
Lu Jinnan wasn't testing Bai Xiaonian or making concessions in order to advance. After saying that, he cleared away the utensils that Bai Xiaonian's father had used, not intending to bring up this matter again.
Bai Xiaonian's father heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his son-in-law would be compassionate and make his daughter feel uncomfortable. Now that his daughter was pregnant, it wasn't good for the child to be angry.
All the more, he didn't want his son-in-law and daughter to have a conflict because of this matter!
"Do you want to eat a piece of fruit?" Bai Xiaonian asked Lu Jinnan as if she was rewarding him.
Lu Jinnan put the thermoof of food into the can, then walked over and bent over to bite the fruit Bai Xiaonian of it of.
Bai Xiaonian smiled and nodded.
…
Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian stayed with Bai Xiaonian's father until 8: 00 pm. The two of them packed up the thermos, and on the way back, Lu Jinnan received a call from his father, saying that Lu Jinbei had suddenly brought a lady home and wanted to marry this lady!
Lu Jinnan's father wasn't prepared at all. He called Lu Jinnan to see if Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian had the time to hurry back. He really didn't know how to deal with this matter.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jinnan recalled the WeChat Moments that Bai Xiaonian had mentioned this morning …
After hanging up the call, Bai Xiaonian saw Lu Jinnan frowning and asked, "Did something happen, Dad?"
Lu Jinnan didn't hide it from Bai Xiaonian. "I'll send you back first. I'll make a trip to Dad's place later. Dad said … Lu Jinbei brought a lady home and said he's getting married. He didn't tell Dad in advance, so Dad is confused and doesn't know what to do. He asked me to make a trip back!"
Bai Xiaonian paused and adjusted her sitting posture. "Don't tell me … the person Lu Jinbei brought back is Cai Jingyao?"
Lu Jinnan didn't say anything, his frown deepening.
Ever since Lu Jinnan and Bai Xiaonian got married, Lu Jinbei didn't tell Lu Jinnan everything like before. He even seemed to be avoiding Lu Jinnan.
So, even if Lu Jinnan were to go back, would Lu Jinbei listen to him?
Just as she was thinking, Bai Xiaonian's phone rang …
She looked down and saw that it was Lu Jinnan's father. She answered the call. "Dad …"
"Where are you and Jinnan?"
Bai Xiaonian glanced at Lu Jinnan. She didn't plan on getting involved in Lu Jinbei and Cai Jingyao's matter, so she said, "Dad … Jinnan is sending me home. He'll go back after that! It's mainly because I'm a little tired today … "
Hearing that his daughter-in-law was tired, Lu Jinnan's father naturally couldn't let his pregnant daughter-in-law run around. He said, "Then there's no rush! Your health is the most important thing. Why don't you and Jinnan not come back tonight? Come back tomorrow! Just now, Xiao Bei said … this lady is staying at home for the night! "
Bai Xiaonian raised an eyebrow … surprised.
"Then it's settled. I'll buy some groceries tomorrow and cook a table full of dishes. Come back and help me check on her! Let's set it for lunch. You can go back and rest after lunch! I called the two of you back in such a hurry, mainly because Xiao Bei has never been in a relationship before. Now that he suddenly brought a lady home and said that he's getting married, I really don't feel at ease! I'm so anxious that I'm getting blisters on my lips … "
"Okay, Dad, I got it. I'll let Jinnan know. Don't be too anxious about this. If she's really a good lady, perhaps it's Lu Jinbei's fate!"
Not wanting the pregnant Bai Xiaonian to worry too much, Lu Jinnan's father quickly hung up after saying a few words.
"Dad said to go back for lunch tomorrow and check on the lady that Lu Jinbei brought back!" Bai Xiaonian said.
Lu Jinnan didn't say a word. He asked Bai Xiaonian, "Could this lady, Cai Jingyao … really like Xiao Bei?"
Lu Jinnan had always been prejudiced against women. In order to avoid being biased, he suppressed his disgust for Cai Jingyao and asked Bai Xiaonian this question.
"Maybe!" Bai Xiaonian pursed her lips. "Otherwise, why would she be with Lu Jinbei again? If she wants to prove that she's more charming than me, she should be looking for you, not Lu Jinbei! "
Lu Jinnan frowned. "Don't go back tomorrow!"
"I'm fine. I've already let go of Lu Jinbei 800 years ago. If I don't go back tomorrow, it'll seem as if I'm guilty of something! I'm Lu Jinbei's sister-in-law … it's normal for me to go back with you to check on him! "Bai Xiaonian clenched her fists.
"I'm afraid I'll disgust you!" Lu Jinnan's words clearly showed his dislike for Cai Jingyao.
"Maybe the person Lu Jinbei brought back isn't Cai Jingyao!" Bai Xiaonian's attitude was very optimistic.
Lu Jinbei should know better than Bai Xiaonian what kind of person Cai Jingyao was. Unless there was something wrong with Lu Jinbei's brain, he wouldn't want to marry Cai Jingyao …
If there was really something wrong with Lu Jinbei's brain, then he and Cai Jingyao would be a perfect match. Bai Xiaonian definitely wouldn't stop them.
…
Early the next morning, Bai Xiaonian got up and tidied up briefly. She then got someone to prepare health supplements for Lu Jinnan's father.
Seeing that Bai Xiaonian was busy, Lu Jinnan said, "You don't have to prepare these. To Dad … you and the child are the greatest gift."
