Chapter 190 I Donât Want to Go to Yanjing!âThey are coming! They are coming!â Tang Cao shouts at the door.
Yan Hua sees Bai Susu unhurriedly adjust her broken hair near the ears. Then Bai Susu asks Yan Hua.
âIs Momâs makeup smudged?â
âNo, it is not. You look very beautiful!â
âLetâs go!â Bai Susu just smiles and walks to the door with Yan Hua, arm in arm.
Lang Qin doesnât come. Originally Lang Ruoxian was going to pick up Lang Cha, but he had something urgent temporarily. Being afraid of getting too late, he made an appointment to pick up Lang Cha half way. Todayâs occasion is not suitable for Lang Qin to appear, but he will come with Lang Yukun to meet Lang Cha back to Langâs mansion later.
âDad, Mom! This is my grandpa.â Lang Ruoxian helps Lang Cha out of the car and introduces Yan Huaâs family to Lang Cha, âGrandpa, this is Huaâs parents and younger brother.â
Tang Cao is honey-tongued. âNice to meet you. Grandpa!â
âNice to meet you, Mr. Lang!â Tang Yao greets him.
Bai Susu smiles like a flower. âNice to meet you. Thank you for taking care of my daughter!â
âGrandpa, letâs go in first!â Yan Hua pushes the door open.
Lang Cha looks at the three members of Tang Family. He investigated before returning home. The second branch of Tang Family in Yanjing is simply a joke. They are hopeless because no matter how well they are supported, the mediocre and incompetent cannot succeed.
He doesnât believe it.
How can a family that raises the excellent daughter, Yan Hua, be not promisingâ¦
âNot at all. Hua is our Lang Familyâs daughter-in-law, so it is our responsibility to take care of her.â Lang Cha turns his gaze away and everyone goes into the sitting room to take a seat.
Bai Susu puts the prepared tea in front of Lang Cha. âI hear you like drinking tea. That is what we brought here. Please have a try!â
âTea specially served at the state banquet?â Lang Cha takes a sip and understands, âThatâs why people say that there are some things in China that money canât buy.â
Tang Yao laughs. âIf you like it, we shall send some to you every year. We donât have much, though. I stole it from my elder brother!â
Yan Hua is speechless.
âTang Yao, go to the kitchen to bring some fruit.â Bai Susu glances at her husband.
Tang Yao stands up and goes to the kitchen. Tang Cao follows.
âDad, you said the wrong thing again. How could you say that it was stolen? You should say that you took it.â
âI had a loose tongue just now. I will pay attention to it next timeâ¦â
In the sitting room, Yan Hua is embarrassed and covers her forehead, while Lang Ruoxian hooks the corner of his mouth to smile.
âIâm sorry, Mr. Lang, my husband and my son donât have a very good IQ. But donât worry. Hua is very smart.â Bai Susu says so, but she doesnât show embarrassed expression.
The expression in Lang Chaâs eyes is unpredictable. He smiles a few seconds later. âMrs. Tang, you need not be too polite. Since Hua is my grandsonâs wife, then we are a family!â
Bai Susu and Lang Cha talks about various topics, Yan Hua and Lang Ruoxian simply sneaks into the small parlor nearby.
âDid Grandpa say anything on the way?â
Having seen Yan Hua so nervous, Lang Ruoxian hugs and kisses her. âNo, he just asked me if I had thought it over.â
âWas he angry?â
âNo.â Lang Ruoxian fondles her back. âI gave the company to Yukun, not to outsiders. He wonât be angry.â
What he did not say is that Lang Cha asked him what he would do if Tang Family fell from power.
âThatâs why I want to build a bigger business empire to back up Hua.â Lang Ruoxian replies in this way.
Lang Cha watched him for a long time and said nothing.
âItâs time to have dinner.â Tang Cao shouts in the dining room, so everyone moves to the dining table.
During the dinner time, Bai Susu and Lang Cha tries each otherâs bottom line once again. They are not really engaged in hot battle, but they argue heatedly. Tang Yao and Tang Cao cheer for Bai Susu from time to time while eating. Lang Cha stares at Lang Ruoxian several times, disliking him for not cheering himselfâ¦
âWhen are you going to return to Yanjing?â Finally, Lang Cha asks.
Bai Susu keeps smiling all the time. âDonât worry. Itâs up to Hua!â
âNow that you have decided, sooner is better.â Lang Cha glances at Yan Hua. âDonât you mention that someone already knows it? If you go back too late, you will give others a chance.â
âMr. Lang, you are right.â Bai Susu goes on. âSo we should not go back too early or too late.â
Lang Cha nods. âYou just leave after the weekend. I will stay home for a while to see how Yukun is.â
âThen thank you!â
In the evening, when Lang Qin and Lang Yukun come, Yan Hua and Lang Ruoxian are not in. They go to pick up Gungun. Tomorrow is the weekend, Lang Cha wants to take Gungun back to Langâs mansion to live for several days. Tang Yao doesnât want to let Gungun go because he wants to stay with Gungun, but Bai Susu opposes him immediately.
âMr. and Mrs. Tang!â Lang Qin greets them.
Lang Yukun also says hello to Yan Huaâs parent.
âSit down please.â Bai Susu greets them. âYouâre welcome. We are a family.â
Lang Yukun thinks highly of the fruit tea made by Bai Susu. Bai Susu tells Lang Qin, âYour son is more honey-tongued than Ruoxian. Is he married? Does he have a girlfriend?â
âOh! Sister Bai, if you know any suitable girl for him, please introduce one to him. I almost doubt if he likes men.â
Lang Qin is more honey-tongued. Just in such a short time, he begins to address Huaâs parents to be Brother Tang and Sister Bai.
âCome to Yanjing when you are free!â Tang Cao says like a real playboy. âI donât have anything good to treat you, but I can summon plenty of girls to accompany you!â
Lang Yukun thinks of the description of the second Childe of Tang Family in the materialsâ¦
âI still donât want to bother you, Second Childe. I have been into some girl.â
Tang Cao is jealous. He is no worse-looking than Lang Ruoxian and Lang Yukun. But Lang Ruoxian has had his wife and son, and Lang Yukun has had a girlfriend. After thinking for a moment, he asks again.
âHow old are you?â
Lang Yukun answers, â28â¦â
âYou are the same age as my elder sister!â Tang Cao feels balanced. He is only 22. He neednât haste.
Gungun comes back. When he sees Lang Cha, he is very happy. He has been very happy these days. There are many guests in his house every day. When he knows that Lang Cha will take him back to Langâs mansion for several days, he happily follows Lang Cha. He tells Tang Yao when he leaves, âGrandpa, please wait till Gungun comes back!â
Tang Yaoâs eyes are filled with tears. âDear Gungun, grandpa will stay at home and wonât go anywhere else. You do remember to come back soon!â
Until the car drives away, Tang Yao still leans over the house window to look though. He keeps watching and suddenly turns to Bai Susu and says, âEmpress, letâs go to live in Langâs mansion, too!â
âTake a shower and sleep.â Bai Susu ignores him.
After the weekend, they will leave for Yanjing. Lang Ruoxian hasnât finished the companyâs business and will go there several days later. Gungun comes back from Langâs mansion where Lang Cha stays. He finds that they are packing up, so he happily drags out his small suitcase.
âMom, where are we going to play? Did you ask for leave from the kindergarten for me?â
Yan Hua looks at her son in surprise. âGungun, you forget that we are going to Yanjing, and you will live in Yanjing in the future.â
âYanjing?â Gungun opens his eyes wide. âIs that the place where Grandparents and Uncle live?â
âYes! That is also where we will live in the future.â Yan Hua feels strange. Hasnât the child known it?
Gungun cries suddenly. âI donât want to leave. I donât want to leave Xiaojiu. Wowâ¦â
âGungun?â Lang Ruoxian comes out of the cloakroom and takes Yan Huaâs suitcase. âWhatâs wrong with him?â
Yan Hua has a particularly weak feeling. Itâs no wonder that her chubby son didnât respond when Xiaojiu felt sad about Gungunâs leaving that day. It turns out that he didnât hear at all, and he didnât know that not only his grandparents and uncle would leave, but also he himself would leaveâ¦
â⦠If there is anything to be done in the future, let him know directly.â Lang Ruoxian once again realizes the extent of his sonâs foolishness and sweetness.
Gungun still cries, crying heart-wrenchingly. The three persons downstairs run up when hearing the crying. Tang Yao feels distressed when seeing this. âDear Gungun, tell Grandpa who bullied you, Grandpa will beat him!â
âNo⦠Donâtâ¦â Gungun sobs and shouts, âDonât go to Yanzi (swallow)â¦â
Swallow? What the hell?
âTill now, he just knows that we are leaving here and are going to live in Yanjing in the future.â Yan Hua sighs and takes the towel from Lang Ruoxianâs hand, âGungun, stop crying. OK? If you have something to say, you can tell us.â
Gungun simply canât control his feeling and continues to cry heart-wrenchingly. Occasionally he says that he wants to stay in Xiaojiuâs house and he doesnât need mom and dad, and so on.
âYou pack up first and give him to me.â Lang Ruoxian takes Gungun from Yan Huaâs arms and goes straight to Gungunâs bedroom.
Lang Ruoxian puts his chubby son on his own bed. Gungun rolls over and buries himself in the quilt to continue crying. Lang Ruoxian doesnât say a word and just watches him crying. Gungun doesnât know how long he cries. But he is probably tired of crying and looks at Lang Ruoxian secretly.
âStop crying?â Lang Ruoxian asks.
Gungun refuses to sit up, whining.
âIf you are a brave boy, you just sit up.â Lang Ruoxian takes another hot towel. Gungun sobs and sit up. âDad⦠Dadâ¦â
Lang Ruoxian touches his head. âGungun, you havenât seen Grandparents since childhood, have you?â
âNo⦠Theyâre not here.â
âThat is not because they were not here, but because your mom was lost, and she forgot the way home. She is the only daughter of your grandparents, but she hasnât gone home for many years.â
Gungun thinks for a moment and whispers, âThen⦠Grandparents must miss mom very much.â
âSo now they have found mom and want to take her home.â Lang Ruoxian holds up his son. âDad doesnât want to be separated from mom, so I shall go back with her. What about you? Are you unwilling to go to your grandparentsâ home with your mom?â
Gungun wants to cry again. He nods, and then shakes his head.
âDad knows that you hate to part with Xiaojiu and Mingxi. If you really donât want to go with your mom, then tell her. She will definitely stay for you, and then let grandparents and your uncle go back by themselves.â
Gungun blankly raises his head. âIf Mom canât be with Grandma, will she be very sad?â
âWill you be sad if you arenât with your mom?â Lang Ruoxian asks him.
Gungun is silent for a few seconds and then nods vigorously. âI donât want to be separated from Mom and Dad.â
âMom doesnât want to be separated from Grandparents.â Lang Ruoxian looks at his son and says, âNow, think it over for yourself. Do you want your mom to stay for you, or do you want to go to your grandparentsâ house with your mom?â
Tang Yao looks around in the sitting room and nervously asks Bai Susu, âWhat if Gungun is unwilling to go finally?â
âThen we will stay.â Bai Susuâs tone is mild. âI will move our companies here.â
Yan Hua who is next to her is stunned. âMomâ¦â
âSilly girl, wherever we stay, it is same for us, as long as our family stay together. The reason to return to Yanjing is only to find the person who harmed you. When we find out, it doesnât matter whether we return to G City or go to other places.â
Gungun runs down from the upstairs and looks up at Bai Susu.
âGrandma, Iâm sorry! Gungun will go with you.â
