Chapter 9 Going to the Movies



Looking at Lan Yuchu in the kitchen, she excitedly ran over, her face full of smiles, and took her second brother's hand, saying, "Brother, I only have half a day of classes today. When I come back, will you take me to see a movie?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Your brother is going on a date with your sister-in-law. It's not appropriate for him to bring you along."

Qian Xiuying directly rejected her daughter's request.

Lan Yusui looked disappointed, then looked at her second brother, shook his shoulder and said, "Second brother~"

Lan Yuchu was not a soft-hearted god, so naturally he would not agree.

There was no response.

Lan Yusui released him, turned around and said, "I'll go find my second sister-in-law, she'll definitely agree."

"You're back?" Lan Yuchu immediately stopped her. "Your second sister-in-law is still sleeping. She fell into the water yesterday and is weak and malnourished. She needs to rest! Don't disturb her."

"Will you take me with you or not?" Lan Yusui asked, unwilling to give up.

Lan Yuchu reluctantly agreed, "Come back early. We'll go buy some other things in the morning, and then take you to see a movie in the afternoon."

"Okay, thank you, Second Brother." Lan Yusui happily went out.

Seeing her reach the door, Qian Xiuying immediately said, "Shall we have breakfast first?"

"I went out to eat and had fried dough sticks with my classmates."

"Your second brother bought some fried dough sticks, are you coming back?" Qian Xiuying called out to her daughter, watching her daughter happily run off and disappear.

Lan Huaixi got up as he walked back from the doorway.

“You’re a women’s federation director, shouting like that is damaging to your image!” Lan Huaixi glanced at his son, then spoke to his wife.

Qian Xiuying was the first to object, retorting, "Back when we lived in the countryside, I took care of three children by myself and still had to work. How could I keep them in check if I didn't raise my voice? You're so nosy. You've never done any housework, yet you still have the nerve to talk."

"Dad~" Lan Yuchu greeted him at this moment.

Lan Huaixi, who exuded authority without anger, glanced at his son and nodded.

With his eyes fixed on his wife, he felt too embarrassed to continue.

Looking at the noodles in the pot, she immediately reminded him, "Are the noodles ready yet? I'm going out in a bit."

Qian Xiuying pursed her lips, wanting to retort, but because her son was there, she didn't say anything.

“Now that you’re back, go out and have fun with Xiaoyue for a few days. If you have time, go back to the countryside to pay respects to your parents! Xiaoyue has been here for so many years and has mentioned wanting to go back and visit, but I didn’t dare let her go back alone. Your mother and I have been busy with work and haven’t had the time. When you go back this time, please take a good look at the villagers in the countryside for your father.”

Lan Huaixi's identity is what it is; he cannot go back.

In addition, he was indeed very busy, with a lot of work piling up.

He might not have come back yesterday if he hadn't heard that his son was back.

Lan Yuchu nodded and wrote it down, saying, "Dad, I've got it. I'll go back with Qiyue in a couple of days."

Lan Huaixi looked at his most proud son and nodded in satisfaction.

He whispered a reminder to Lan Yuchu, "Talk to Qiyue properly. If she agrees, then bring her unit to live with you. You can't stay separated forever. She's all alone and has no relatives or friends. You're her husband, you know?"

Lan Yuchu agreed to all of them.

Although Lan Huaixi knew what had happened in the past, with so many people in the family compound, he knew what had happened even if he didn't ask.

"The noodles are ready, go and eat quickly. Your son knows what he's doing, so don't interfere in their marriage."

Qian Xiuying couldn't help but remind Lan Huaixi that the young couple was going through a divorce, and he still had to come out and put pressure on them.

This sounded terrifying to her.

Lan Huaixi glanced at Qian Xiuying, but said nothing more.

Lan Yuchu didn't speak, looking at her father, whose hair had turned white.

He was originally a soldier, but he had the temperament of a scholar. However, he fell ill and suffered during the years he was sent to the countryside.

Looking at my father's back now, I always feel a sense of old age and helplessness.

Busy with work, he often felt unwell, and it was his mother who wrote to him, saying that his family missed him very much.

Considering that I really should come back, there are some things I always have to face.

Lin Qiyue was sleeping soundly. Her parents had both gone to work, but she was still asleep.

Lan Yuchu ate breakfast, took a shower, and came out while Lin Qiyue was still asleep.

Looking at the clock by the bed, it was already nine o'clock. He couldn't bear to look any longer. He walked to the bedside, pulled back the covers, and picked up Lin Qiyue.

"Get up, is the sun shining on your butt?" Lan Yuchu didn't expect that she could really sleep.

Lin Qiyue was still dazed. She frowned and raised her hand to hit Lan Yuchu, which landed right in front of his chest.

Still half asleep, she protested strongly, "Stop it~ I haven't had enough sleep yet, just a little longer!"

After saying that, he fell asleep immediately.

When I get up in the morning and try to get her out of bed for a run, she acts the same way, pouting and refusing to open her eyes.

Thinking that she was too tired, I let her go.

But four hours have passed and she is still asleep.

Lin Qiyue lay back on the bed and tried to pull the blanket over herself, but she couldn't reach it no matter how hard she tried.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Lan Yuchu bending over, his face even closer to mine.

"What are you doing?" Lin Qiyue was startled and hid even further away.

Lan Yuchu picked Lin Qiyue up and hugged her neck like a frightened little rabbit.

She asked fearfully, "Lan Yuchu, what are you going to do?"

Lan Yuchu carried Lin Qiyue to the bathroom in a princess carry.

I put her down, then suddenly realized she was barefoot, so I went back and put her back on the bed.

Lan Yuchu didn't say anything, but hugged her back and forth.

She called out his name, "Lan Yuchu~," through gritted teeth.
