_2 303: Chapter 232: Nanxi, do you really think Iâm made of iron?
_2 Xia Zhenâs eyes became a bit cloudy as she said this, thinking of her late daughter.
As a mother, she couldnât help but feel sorrow.
She didnât want to bring it up.
Every time she did, it was an unspeakable pain!
Xia Zhen said, âI have lived for more than half my life, and at this age, I honestly donât want anything except for my childrenâs safety and happiness.
I just want us to live together with love and laughter, thatâs really enough!â
â¦
As Nanxi and Xia Zhen were coming downstairs, Lu Yinchu was walking back with his mobile phone in his hand, apparently he had just been on a call.
Seeing this, Xia Zhen hurriedly said, âYinchu, you and Nanxi have been traveling by car and plane all morning, you must be tired.
Go upstairs and take a nap.
Take some rest, donât go to the company.
Work never ends, putting it off for a day is okay!â
Xia Zhen thought that Lu Yinchu had just taken a work-related call.
She worried that her son wouldnât take her previous advice seriously at mealtime.
She worried he was too occupied with his work, neglecting more important matters, neglecting Nanxi!
Xia Zhen hinted to her son, âif you donât sleep, Nanxi would need to sleep as well!â
Now, she was able to calmly face the fact of her son and future daughter-in-law taking a nap together at noon.
She could see that their relationship had become very intimate!
Didnât they also go to Hong Kong together this time?
Lu Yinchu had no choice but to nod, he took Nanxi upstairs.
Nanxi resisted, but couldnât refute, and reluctantly followed Lu Yinchu upstairs!
After stepping into the upstairs bedroom, Nanxi immediately looked at the bed.
She had seen it while with Xia Zhen earlier, but now she felt something different with Lu Yinchu at her side!
âLu Yinchu, I donât think we can continue like this!â Nanxi was ready to address the elephant in the room!
Lu Yinchu frowned.
Compared to now, he missed the Nanxi he knew in Hong Kongâone who was gentle, obedient, and moreover, dependent on him!
But he also knew that the present Nanxi was the real her, a stubborn inner strength born out of helplessness with reality!
âNanxi, anyone in this world can live without anyone else!â
After he finished, he took out a cigarette, lit it, and sat down on the sofa in the bedroom, looking restless.
Nanxiâs eyes flickered, and a sense of powerlessness came over her as if Lu Yinchu had seen through her thoughts.
She bit her lip, turned her head away, and did not dare to look at Lu Yinchu!
âLu Yinchu, you donât understand him, he reallyâ¦
he will really get into trouble!â
âArenât you afraid that Iâll get into trouble too?â
He took a deep puff, his voice sounded drained, âNanxi, did you think I was made of steel?
I have been suffering for nearly eight years, the pain of losing you!â
âBut you had such a good time during these eight years!â Nanxi retorted.
There was silence.
Lu Yinchu did not respond, but light laughter came to her ears.
Though it was laughter, it sounded painful for Nanxi!
âNanxi, do you think a person who lives like a walking dead has aâ¦
great life?â
Nanxi looked surprised and looked at Lu Yinchu in disbelief.
She was shockedâwas it true?
âNanxi, I never wanted to bind you with my past.
You donât have to take responsibility for waiting for me for eight years, and I donât need you to.
But now, you have me in your heart, so, I canât let you go!â
â¦
Standing at the door, Lu Qingtian had been listening for a while.
There was no sound in the room.
Maybe the room was just too well-insulated!
Lu Qingtian had heard nothing, looking dejected, she descended the stairs.
After reporting the situation to her mother, Xia Zhen thought that perhaps the two had indeed gone to sleep because they were tired.
She didnât say anything more.
Xia Zhen grabbed Lu Qingtian, intending to take her home!
The old man was still at home, so she couldnât stay for too long!
Lu Qingtian looked reluctant, âMom, I want to stay and have dinner with my sister-in-law tonight, then Iâll go home.
I donât want to leave now!â
Xia Zhen disagreed, âEven if you donât want to leave, you have to.
Your sister-in-law and your brother are napping now.
They are not free to entertain you.
What are you doing staying here?â
Lu Qingtian frowned, âI wouldnât disturb their nap by staying here.
Canât I play in the other room?â
âNo!â Xia Zhen resolutely dragged Lu Qingtian with her, sighing in her heart.
This silly girl was already seventeen years old.
How could she still behave so childishly, even adding trouble to her plate!
Xia Zhen then played her trump cardâthe allowance she provided for Lu Qingtianâs entertainment, to finally drag her downstairs.
Aunt Qiu followed them downstairs, and they took a taxi.
Mo Yan drove Xia Zhen and Lu Qingtian home!
On the way, Xia Zhen once again lectured Lu Qingtian, who had an unconvinced look on her face.
Then she chatted with Mo Yan, mainly about Lu Yinchu and Nanxi!
She thought Lu Yinchu was somewhat naive.
He seemed confident in everything, but his sense of measure was not quite right.
She could tell that he was very protective of Nanxi, and she worried that he was so protective of his future daughter-in-law that he would lose his own principles!
Mo Yan smiled slightly and said, âNo, Lu always has a sense of measure!â
âI donât think he has, if he had, I would probably have had a grandson by now!â
Mo Yan said no more, realising that this issue wasnât one he should voice his opinion on.
Moreover, it wasnât appropriate to reveal too much!
âForget it, Iâll trust him once more, heâs grown up now.
Itâs not right for me to interfere with him.
Let him manage his own affairs, see what he can come up with.
Nanxi looks like a sensible childâ¦..â
Xia Zhen sighed, turning to look at Mo Yan, âIâm not in a rush about Yinchuâs affairs for now, after all, he has Nanxi.
But you, Mo Yan, Xiaoyueâs been gone for nearly eight years, and youâre still delayingâ¦..â
âAuntâ¦.âMo Yan interrupted her, his voice flat, revealing no emotion, he said, âThank you for your concern, Aunt, but Iâm fine now!â
Xia Zhen looked at him, wanted to say something, but what was she to say?
Some things, even when said several times, didnât make a difference, not a bit!
Mo Yan was stubborn, she understood the nature of perseveration, and tried to stop it, simply because she cared for this boy named Mo Yan.
But she also knew that perseverance was called perseverance because it was indeed very difficult to change!
After sending Xia Zhen and Lu Qingtian back to Lu Mansion, Mo Yan drove directly back the same way.
On the road, he took in some scenery; his mind flooded with thoughts, but his expression was as indifferent as usual!
Now, nothing could stir up his emotions.
Eight years of waiting was not that he didnât want to love someone else, but that he had lost his ability to love anyone else!
Presently, he couldnât love anyone!
