[Gentle on the outside, firm on the inside female translator & Flirty on the outside, reserved on the inside boxing coach] When Lin Yan was at the end of her rope, she returned to her hometown ...
Chapter 292 Actually, I don’t plan to tell you about this
Wenxi responded, handed the gift box in her hand to her aunt, walked to the dining table, and looked at everyone with embarrassment.
"Sorry to interrupt everyone's New Year celebrations. I...actually, I wasn't planning to come. It was Uncle Xing..."
"What do you mean by disturbing?" Xing Zhonghua patted the empty seat beside him and asked her to sit down. "You have taken care of Ayu for a year. When his leg injury was the most serious, you were the one who ran around for him."
"Your parents are both abroad and won't be back for the New Year. How lonely would it be for you to be alone at home? Why don't you come over and celebrate the New Year with us?"
Feng Lian also smiled and said, "Xiaoxi, please sit down. Don't be shy. Just treat yourself like you're at home. Eat more."
Wen Xi thanked her and sat down. As soon as he looked up, his eyes met Lin Yan's.
She was stunned for a moment, then gave a gentle smile with a hint of apology in her eyes.
Lin Yan smiled back at her and said nothing.
The old lady was an experienced person and knew what Xing Zhonghua was planning. She took a sip of water from her cup and suddenly looked at Xing Yu and Lin Yan.
"Ayu, you and Xiaoyan have been married for over two years and your relationship is so deep. When are you planning on having your wedding? I'm still looking forward to having a great-grandson."
Xing Yu: "I was planning to do it before, but my grandfather's death suddenly interrupted the plan. I will re-prepare it as soon as possible."
"Okay, as long as we have a plan." The old lady put her hand on the back of Lin Yan's hand and said deliberately: "Yan Yan, grandma has recognized you as her granddaughter-in-law! Only you! Do you hear me?"
"Thank you, grandma."
…
Apart from Xing Zhonghua's occasional madness, the meal was quite peaceful.
When Lin Yan and Xing Yu were about to leave, Xing Zhonghua stopped them.
"Xing Yu, drive Wenxi back on the way. It's snowing heavily today, so she didn't drive."
"Okay." Lin Yan took over and agreed. Then she looked at Wenxi and said, "Wenxi, come with us. It's on our way anyway."
Wen Xi declined: "No need, Lin Yan, I can just take a taxi myself, I won't bother you."
"It's hard to get a taxi on New Year's Eve." Lin Yan patted her shoulder friendly and said, "Let's go."
When leaving the old house, the old lady saw her off to the car, took her hand and told her: "Xiaoyan, be good to Ayu! If he bullies you, call me!"
"Don't worry, grandma. He's fine, and we're fine too."
After watching them leave, the old lady turned to Xing Zhonghua and ordered, "Send me a driver."
Xing Zhonghua was stunned for a moment: "Mom, where are you going on New Year's Day? It's snowing."
"I'm going to Amena."
Xing Zhonghua frowned: "Why are you looking for him? He doesn't want to come back, and you're still rushing to go?"
The old lady looked serious, took a deep breath and looked at him with a strong sense of intimidation.
"Your father may have ignored the evil things you did, but I can't turn a blind eye. It's New Year's Eve, and you really let Ah Mo spend the holiday alone in an empty house? As his grandmother, I have to go see him and atone for the sins of you two."
Xing Zhonghua was speechless after hearing this, but he finally agreed.
He knew in his heart that he owed Xing Mo too much, but he was naturally proud and stubborn.
It's better for the old lady to persuade him than for him to run into trouble with his bad temper.
On the other side, Xing Yu was driving the car, Lin Yan was sitting in the passenger seat, and Wen Xi was sitting quietly in the back seat.
The car was well heated and the snow was still falling outside the window.
Wenxi didn't say anything, just occasionally looking out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lin Yan glanced at her in the rearview mirror and took the initiative to break the silence: "Wenxi, how are you doing recently?"
Wenxi came back to her senses and replied softly, "I'm fine. I've been working in the hospital, going to work and going home every day. Life is pretty simple."
“Hospital work must be very tiring, right?”
"It's okay, you just get used to it."
After chatting for a while, Lin Yan stopped talking and the car soon arrived at the gate of Wenxi's community.
Wenxi thanked them and prepared to get out of the car, but just as he touched the door lock, he suddenly stopped.
She leaned forward and spoke softly to the driver's seat, "By the way, Xing Yu, I asked an old Chinese doctor to prescribe three courses of topical medicine specifically for your old leg injury."
"This medicine can dispel cold and relieve pain when applied to your legs. It's perfect for cold weather. Since you're on your way today, why don't you go upstairs and get it? Go home and ask Lin Yan to give you a hot compress. It will help your legs."
Xing Yu thought it was too late: "No, let's talk about it another day."
Wenxi didn't insist anymore and said "hmm".
"Xing Yu." Lin Yan suddenly said, "It's just on the way, go get it. Come down after you get the medicine, it won't take a few minutes."
"Then you come with me."
Lin Yan leaned back in the car seat and said, "I'm too full from eating. I don't want to move. I'll lock the car door and wait for you downstairs."
Xing Yu had no choice but to nod: "Then wait for me for ten minutes, I'll be down soon."
"Um."
Xing Yu and Wen Xi got out of the car. Lin Yan looked at Wen Xi's gentle back through the car window, and her eyes couldn't help but deepen.
After entering the elevator, the only sound in the narrow space was the humming of the elevator.
Wenxi clutched the bag strap and glanced at Xing Yu out of the corner of her eye.
He was wearing a long black coat with straight shoulders, outlining a figure that was hard to ignore.
His profile looked like a sculpture in the light, but when he was silent, he couldn't hide his coldness.
It was the same feeling as when she first met him at Xing's house as a child, that he was difficult to approach.
She took the initiative to find a topic: "Xing Yu, how is your leg healing? Are there any sequelae? Broken legs are prone to pain when exposed to cold. Has this happened to you?"
Xing Yu: "Not bad."
Realizing that he was a talkative person, Wenxi had to remain silent.
Soon they reached the floor. She entered the code to open the door and turned sideways: "Xing Yu, come in and sit for a while. I'll get you some medicine."
Xing Yu didn't move, maintaining his composure. "No need, just give me the medicine. Ayan is still waiting downstairs."
Wenxi smiled and said, "I packed a full box with medicine for three courses of treatment. I can't carry it all by myself."
Xing Yu didn't think much about it and walked into the study with Wen Xi.
Wenxi bent down and pulled out a brown cardboard box from under the desk. After opening it, he saw bags of packaged Chinese medicine inside.
She squatted on the ground and put the Chinese medicine into two bags.
But after packing it, she didn't hand it to Xing Yu immediately. She just put the bag on the ground. When she looked up at him, there was a bit of complicated emotions in her eyes.
Xing Yu sensed something was wrong: "What's wrong?"
Wenxi pursed her lips and took two steps forward, only one step away from Xing Yu.
The warm yellow light fell on her face, and you could see the redness in her eyes. Her voice trembled slightly, "Xing Yu, I... have something... I want to tell you..."
"Yeah." Xing Yu: "You go ahead."
Wenxi lowered her head, clenched her fingertips tightly at her sides, and after a long silence, she told him.
"Xing Yu, actually... I didn't intend to tell you about this... but I also felt it was wrong to hide it from you..."
"You may find it outrageous to say this, but... the fact is... I'm pregnant."
"I... am pregnant with your child..."
