My name is Bai Yueyue. Oh my goodness, in this world, how can there be such a cute, kind, gentle, dignified, and elegant girl like me? OMG, this is truly the world's honor.
Hmm? This self...
"Wow, Sister Xiaobai is really amazing." It was Liu Shuyi's admiring voice on the other end of the phone. After hearing Bai Yueyue complain about how tiring her holiday schedule was, Liu Shuyi asked to call and comfort Bai Yueyue.
Although Bai Yueyue wanted to tell Nianxin these things, no matter what messages Bai Yueyue sent, Nianxin did not reply. Bai Yueyue even began to suspect that something had happened to Nianxin. However, because Nianxin had said before the holiday that she would not reply to her messages and that she should not look for her, Bai Yueyue suppressed the urge to go to her.
“Yes,” Bai Yueyue lay on the bed looking at the ceiling, “Shuyi, how is your sister?”
According to Bai Yueyue's prediction, Liu Jiayu should have woken up long ago.
"My sister has woken up, but she's still very weak and needs to stay in the hospital for observation and recuperation for a while." Bai Yueyue couldn't help but smile at the cheerful tone in Liu Shuyi's voice. Liu Shuyi was just too adorable, and all her hard work was worthwhile.
“Yes, because she’s been on glucose to maintain her vital signs, she may need a long time to recover,” Bai Yueyue said. She also suggested that she help Liu Jiayu recover with magic again, but Liu Shuyi said that she and Liu Jiayu felt that Bai Yueyue had already done a great favor by saving Liu Jiayu’s life, and they couldn’t trouble Bai Yueyue any further.
"Yes, yes, really... thank you so much, Sister Xiaobai. My sister and I, no, our whole family are very grateful." Liu Shuyi had lost count of how many times she had expressed her gratitude to Bai Yueyue.
"I appreciate your kind words," Bai Yueyue said. She didn't need the gift, but she would really like the heartfelt sentiment.
Good night, get some rest.
Goodnight, Sister Xiaobai, get some rest too. I'll miss you.
Liu Shuyi then quickly hung up the phone. Bai Yueyue, of course, heard Liu Shuyi's last sentence, but she was amused and didn't pay much attention to it. After all, it was just a girl joking or showing trust to another girl, right?
Soon, it was early morning. Since Li Jianchuan, Lü Dan, and Bai Shenxing were all leaving, Bai Yueyue also had to get up to see them off.
"Waaah, I'm not going back. I'll tell that kid to be the acting head of the family. I want to attend my precious granddaughter's coming-of-age ceremony here." Li Jianchuan hugged Bai Yueyue, who had given up resisting, with tears in his eyes, refusing to let go no matter what.
Seeing this, Li Jieyue stepped forward and separated the two: "Father, Yueyue and I will miss you very much. If you don't mind, I will try my best to bring Yueyue back to the Li family to visit you."
Li Jianchuan looked at Li Jieyue in front of him, wanting to say something, but he only opened his mouth without making a sound.
"Oh dear, Yueyue, I think I forgot something. Zhenhao, Shenxing, you two come and help me look for it." Lu Dan clapped her hands and made a troubled expression. "Jieyue and the old man, you can check over here to see if there's anything else I forgot."
Even Bai Yueyue could tell that Lü Dan was creating private space for Li Jieyue and Li Jianchuan, and all three of them cooperated and followed Lü Dan back to the villa.
“Father…” Li Jieyue looked at Li Jianchuan and suddenly noticed that her father had a lot more gray hair.
"This old woman is really something." Li Jianchuan scratched the back of his head, not knowing what to say for a moment, as he hadn't spent time alone with his daughter for many years.
Li Jieyue took a step back, bowed to Li Jianchuan, and said, "Father, your unfilial daughter's willfulness has caused you too much trouble."
Looking at Li Jieyue in front of him, Li Jianchuan was momentarily transported back to his childhood when he carried Li Jieyue to pick peaches.
No matter what others said, he always knew that his daughter was the best and most obedient.
"Raise your head." A stern voice rang in Li Jieyue's ears.
"Are you going to get scolded?" Li Jieyue thought to herself as she looked up. The next second, Li Jianchuan hugged her in an awkward but familiar way.
"I think one of the things I taught you was to take responsibility for your own choices."
"I will never forget my father's teachings."
"Yes, this is my daughter." Li Jianchuan held Li Jieyue in his arms. Although many years had passed, it felt as if the last time he held little Li Jieyue was just yesterday.
"Father, daughter, have I disappointed you?" Li Jieyue asked in a trembling voice the question that had troubled her for more than twenty years.
“She takes responsibility for her decisions, and even during the most difficult times, she never complained to me about the hardships of life. She also raised Yueyue and her two children to adulthood in good health. How could I, as her father, be disappointed in such an outstanding daughter?”
Wiping away Li Jieyue's tears with his wrinkled hands, Li Jianchuan said, "You are my proudest daughter. Bai Zhenhao, get out here."
Upon hearing the old man's voice, Bai Zhenhao didn't dare to delay and immediately ran out, standing in front of Li Jianchuan as if he were standing at attention.
Then, Li Jianchuan kicked Bai Zhenhao.
"Father!"
"Damn, what's this old man up to?"
Li Jieyue and Lü Dan spoke at the same time, but Bai Zhenhao stood still without moving an inch.
“Very good, now that’s more like a son-in-law of the Li family.” Li Jianchuan carefully but tremblingly took the couple’s hands. He then handed Li Jieyue’s hand to Bai Zhenhao. “I’ve wanted to kick you for a long time, and one kick wouldn’t be enough to vent my anger. But, who told Jieyue to be so determined to be with you? You brat, Jieyue is my most precious daughter. Since you dared to take her away from me back then, then use that courage to take good care of her for the rest of your life.”
"Yes!" Bai Zhenhao's eyes lit up. "Father, I will take care of Jieyue for the rest of my life."
Looking at the two most important men in her life, as if they were handing over a vow to take care of her for life, even Li Jieyue would blush.
"Goodbye, Father and Mother (Grandpa and Grandma)." The matter between Li Jianchuan and Li Jieyue has now come to an end, so the three of them can officially set off.
"Jieyue, come back to the Li family whenever you have time. Even if I die, your elder brother will protect you. The Li family will always be your maternal family." Before leaving, Li Jianchuan said to Li Jieyue again. In order to reassure Li Jieyue so that she could return to the Li family with peace of mind, he also had to keep some people in the Li family in check.
However, Bai Shenxing was very sad. Father, Mother, and Sister, have you all forgotten me? I'm leaving too.
"Brother, please be careful on the road." Bai Yueyue noticed Bai Shenxing, who seemed a little lonely, and went up to him to say.
Then Bai Shenxing seemed to come alive, looking at Bai Yueyue with sparkling eyes, roaring inwardly: My little sister is just too cute!
Although Lü Dan has left, the teaching plan for Bai Yueyue has been completed.
so……
"Alright, Yueyue, let's start this enjoyable week," Li Jieyue said kindly, catching Bai Yueyue who was trying to escape.
It's so cold...so cold, the winter snow chills the heart.
"Mother, I haven't had breakfast yet."
"Oh, that's perfect. Yueyue, let's start learning how to finish your meal with a smile and elegance right now."
Huh?! Isn't mealtime my rest time? Don't do this!!! Mother, you've gone too far!
