Bai Xiaonian's father put the things aside and pulled over the chair he was playing chess on earlier for Lin Nuan to sit on. He then said to Lu Jinnan's father, "I'm not playing anymore. My daughter's friend is here to visit me!"
Lu Jinnan's father looked depressed. He paused when he saw Lin Nuan, then looked at her as if he recalled something. "This lady looks familiar …"
"How can she not look familiar? This is the host of 'A Sunday Date', Lin Nuan. We were watching the show yesterday, and you even praised her for being pretty. How can you forget her in the blink of an eye? What's wrong with your brain? "
From the way Bai Xiaonian's father and Lu Jinnan's father spoke, it was as if they were old friends.
"What's wrong with my brain? All I can think about is how to get your Bai Xiaonian to become our daughter-in-law! "
"We've agreed to talk about it after you beat me three times! But I'm too embarrassed to talk about your lousy skills. Even if I beat you, I won't be proud … "Bai Xiaonian's father smiled and poured a cup of tea for Lin Nuan." You look cold. Have some tea to warm yourself up! "
"Thank you, Uncle!" Lin Nuan took the cup with both hands and didn't interrupt. She was laughing in her heart …
The two elders probably didn't know that Bai Xiaonian and Lu Jinnan were already together.
But … Lu Jinnan's father said that he wanted to get Bai Xiaonian to become their daughter-in-law. Was it for Lu Jinnan or Lu Jinbei?
Lu Jinnan's father picked up the take-out flyer on the bed and fanned himself. He got up and sat back on his bed. "You're too embarrassed to beat me, yet you beat me more than ten times in a row? If you're so capable, lose to me three times! "
Fanning himself on such a cold day, Lu Jinnan's father was furious.
Lu Jinnan's father seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Why didn't your Xiaonian visit you yesterday? She wasn't the host of the 'Morning News Show' this morning either. I don't know where our eldest son and second son are either! I can't even see them for a day … "
When Lin Nuan heard this, she wanted to put down the teacup in her hand, but she realized there was no place to put it. She could only hold the teacup and say, "Uncle Bai, Xiaonian fell down the stairs in high heels yesterday. She's fine except for a slight fracture in her leg. She's in pain in the hospital now!"
"Xiaonian fell down? Are you alright?! Which hospital? "Lu Jinnan's father hurriedly asked.
"It's fine if it's a slight fracture, but he'll still have to stay in the hospital for a few days. He's now at the First Affiliated Hospital of Haicheng Medical University," Lin Nuan said to Lu Jinnan's father with a slight smile on her lips.
Bai Xiaonian's father looked worried when he heard that Bai Xiaonian had fallen. He heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Lin Nuan's grimace. "That damned child! If you only care about your beauty, why would you wear high heels and take the stairs! "
"Xiaonian said … it's to lose weight!" "Uncle, you don't have to worry too much. I just came from the hospital, and Xiaonian's in good condition. If you're worried, you can give her a call later to ask."
"How is Xiaonian fat? How did he lose weight?! Isn't this just fooling around? "Lu Jinnan's father couldn't help but say as he picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip.
Lin Nuan had a good reputation with Bai Xiaonian's father. He nodded when he heard Lin Nuan say that, and his expression softened a little.
Lu Jinnan's father, on the other hand, seemed to have thought of something after taking a sip of tea and got busy. He dialed Lu Jinbei's number, and the moment the call went through, he shouted anxiously, "Xiao Bei! Hurry and go to the First Affiliated Hospital of Haicheng Medical University to visit Xiaonian. Xiaonian fell down the stairs and fractured her leg. Hurry and go over to curry favor with her! "
Lin Nuan's heart sank when she heard Lu Jinnan's father call out Lu Jinbei's name.
If Lu Jinnan's father were to find out that the one who ended up with Bai Xiaonian was Lu Jinnan, how would he feel?
It wasn't clear what Lu Jinbei said on the other end of the line, but Lu Jinnan's father's expression darkened. "No matter how important the matter is, you'd better let it go! Xiaonian is the most important! If you lose this daughter-in-law of mine, I'll skin you alive! "
After hanging up, Lu Jinnan's father angrily fanned himself with the flyer again, his white hair swaying in the wind.
Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.
Was this person really Lu Jinnan's father?
Wasn't this a little too cruel? Skin him alive …
Moreover, who would encourage their son to curry favor with another girl's father in front of her?
Even if it was, shouldn't he be more tactful? Wouldn't it be better to say that he was going to take care of Bai Xiaonian?
"You can't win me, so it's useless no matter how hard you try to curry favor with me! I won't agree first. It's your Xiao Bei's fault for betraying Xiaonian in the past. Of all people, he had to find Xiaonian's good roommate! Isn't he asking for trouble? "
Hearing Bai Xiaonian's father mention this, Lin Nuan's grip on the teacup tightened. She lowered her gaze … to hide the disappointment in her eyes.
So many years had passed, yet Lin Nuan and Song Yao were unwilling to talk about this matter. Bai Xiaonian was even more unwilling to mention this person's name.
"Then, it's fine if you don't despise our boss! I actually feel that Xiaonian's character is quite compatible with our boss. I just don't know if you despise our boss for once … "Lu Jinnan's father was a straightforward person, but he noticed that Lin Nuan was around and swallowed the rest of his words.
"What do you mean by compatible? The moment the two of them see each other, they argue so much that I get a headache! "Bai Xiaonian's father kept waving his hands.
Lu Jinnan's father glanced at Lin Nuan. Seeing that she was smiling, he said, "Uncles, you seem to be in good spirits …"
Lu Jinnan's father vaguely recalled the news from a while ago, and the way he looked at Lin Nuan changed. He remembered that the news said … that this lady risked her life to go to Iraq for that young master of the Wen family.
Seeing that Bai Xiaonian's father was in a good state, Lin Nuan got up and took two steps to place the cup of hot tea on the bedside table. "Uncle, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
Lin Nuan planned to make a trip to the supermarket and personally cook tonight to please Fu Huai 'an's stomach, as well as to please Fu Huai' an's people.
Knowing that young people nowadays were all busy, Lin Nuan, as Bai Xiaonian's friend, was quite attentive to him and often visited him. Bai Xiaonian's father also treated Lin Nuan like half a daughter.
After sending Lin Nuan to the elevator, Bai Xiaonian's father didn't forget to nag Lin Nuan, saying, "Look, you're thinner than Xiaonian. Remember to eat properly. Don't forget to eat because you're too busy. Your stomach wasn't good a few years ago, and it's only gotten better in recent years.
