Every time Lin Nuan received a love letter, she didn't want to bring it home, but someone would quietly stuff it into Lin Nuan's homework or books. Unexpectedly, Lin Nuan would bring it home and let Liang Mulan discover it.
Liang Mulan wasn't so rigid when it came to educating her children. She would even comment on the words in the love letters … or the choice of words.
"Is that so? Your brother used to be so popular with young ladies! I thought my son was too ugly to receive a love letter … "Liang Mulan laughed.
Lin Ran was a little confused. She looked at Liang Mulan. "Where did you get the conclusion that my brother is ugly? Mom, my brother is very popular now. Look at the matchmaking sessions. Basically, everyone who went on a blind date with my brother was very satisfied with him. If my brother was ugly … would they be willing?"
"I thought they were looking at your brother because he's young and promising!"
Lin Ran was amused by Liang Mulan. "Mom, it's a society of good looks now. It's a waste if you're young and promising if you're not good-looking! Just like back then … if Gu Shaoting wasn't handsome, I wouldn't have pursued him! "
Lin Ran didn't agree with Liang Mulan calling Lin Chen ugly because they were biological siblings! They looked … a little similar. Wasn't calling Lin Chen ugly the same as calling him ugly?
Gu Shaoting nodded. Looks were important.
Liang Mulan was speechless.
Alright, Liang Mulan admitted that her son was handsome, but it was sad that her son didn't date.
Halfway through the meal, Yuan Yuan woke up upstairs and asked for her brother. Tuan Tuan ran upstairs first.
Liang Mulan couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. "Other children cry for their mother when they wake up. Our Yuan Yuan cries for her brother the moment she wakes up! It's clear that Lin Nuan, as a mother, doesn't spend much time with her child. "
Lin Nuan had already gone upstairs with Tuan Tuan. Fu Huai 'an glanced upstairs and defended his wife. "Yuan Yuan has been clingy to Tuan Tuan since she was young. Because Yuan Yuan always sleeps all night, she sleeps with Tuan Tuan at night. It's said that babies are clingy to whoever they sleep with from a young age! Moreover … Xiao Nuan has tried her best to spend time with the child. "
How could Liang Mulan not be happy to hear Fu Huai 'an speak up for Lin Nuan?
Although she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes, Liang Mulan still said to Fu Huai 'an, "Every time I criticize Nuan Nuan, you have to defend her."
Fu Huai 'an smiled and didn't say anything.
Carrying Yuan Yuan downstairs, the little girl had stopped crying. The little girl, with two small braids, was pink and white, and her thick and curly eyelashes were still stained with tears. When she went downstairs and saw her father, she stretched out a pair of lotus root-like arms with five fingers and shouted, "Hug … hug … big … hug!"
For the time being, it was still a little difficult for Yuan Yuan to call him Papa, so she always addressed Fu Huai 'an as Boss.
Fu Huai 'an smiled and reached out to carry his chubby daughter, asking her, "Is Yuan Yuan hungry? Do you want to drink milk?! "
The young lady repeated Fu Huai 'an's words, her voice sounding especially nice. "Grandma …"
Lin Nuan brought the milk over. The young lady sat in her father's arms, holding the milk bottle with both hands as she gulped down the milk. Her large, black, and moist eyes darted around the dining table, eventually landing on Gu Shaoting. She probably felt that Gu Shaoting was a new face.
Gu Shaoting met the young lady's clear, glass-like eyes. He felt as if a certain part of his heart was about to melt. He turned his head to look at Lin Ran and leaned closer to her.

"Let's have a daughter after we get married!"
Lin Ran was startled. She frowned and glared at the honest Gu Shaoting.
Seeing that the children were all blissful, Old Madam Lin was especially happy today. Her gaze fell on Lin Chen again and she thought of Jian Qiqi who had just given him the watch. She said, "If the young lady who gave you the watch isn't a bad person, you can try dating her! Don't always reject me before we even get to know each other! "
Lin Chen, who was eating, was speechless.
That day, the family gathering mostly revolved around the two children and Lin Chen's marriage.
In the evening, Lin Chen went out of his house with a friend and drove to the beach.
His family's excessive concern for Lin Chen's marriage also made him feel pressured …
He turned off the engine and got out of the car. Feeling the cool sea breeze, Lin Chen leaned against the front of the car, unbuttoned his shirt, and lit a cigarette.
He still remembered that in the past, his idea … was to marry a girl who was beneficial to his family and career. There were many examples of family marriages.
But ever since the blurry sandpaper in his heart was exposed because Liang Mulan asked him to consider marrying Lin Nuan, the feelings he had hidden for Lin Nuan rushed out of the sandpaper. It was so much … that Lin Chen couldn't control it.
He took a deep puff of the cigarette and lowered his head. He stared at the flickering red light on his fingertips, his eyes narrowing slightly …
Later, Lin Chen's entire heart was filled with Lin Nuan. There was no room for other women.
It was precisely because of this that Lin Chen seemed to make do with any woman …
He couldn't even make do with someone he loved before in a relationship, much less in a marriage.
Just as Liang Mulan said, there were many girls who went on blind dates with Lin Chen. But perhaps … it wasn't that they didn't have common topics, and it wasn't that their personalities weren't compatible.
It was that Lin Chen subconsciously rejected them …
Lin Chen had always controlled his feelings of loving Lin Nuan very well.
When he found out that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai 'an were getting married, when he found out that Lin Nuan truly loved Fu Huai' an, Lin Chen was willing to control himself and not interfere. He gave Lin Nuan his blessings and allowed himself to be concerned for her from the perspective of an older brother. In order to prevent the feelings in his heart from swelling … he reduced his interactions with Lin Nuan.
But Lin Chen didn't have the confidence to control the development of his relationships with other girls.
While he wasn't willing to make do, he also felt that it was unfair and insulting to have someone else in his heart to fall in love with or marry another person.
Lin Chen raised his head and looked at the couples holding hands and strolling on the beach in the distance, or the young couples sitting on the beach and looking at the romantic moonlight. His lips curled up slightly.
He remembered that when Lin Nuan first entered junior high, her favorite thing was to drag him out for a walk after dinner. Although Lin Chen wasn't willing, since it was his sister's wish, he was very willing to take Lin Nuan to the beach for a walk on his bicycle to pick up seashells.
Even though they lived in Haicheng, Lin Nuan loved the sea so much.
Later on … Lin Chen became burdened with his studies, so Lin Nuan no longer pestered Lin Chen to come to the beach for a walk. It was always Liang Mulan and her daughter who came!
Actually, Lin Chen had never liked the beach.
Especially in the summer, when there were too many people and it was too noisy. Even the air was wet and sticky, making one feel that it wasn't as comfortable as staying at home …
