Chapter 156 They look like real mother and daughter
Jinghai, Cheng Mansion.
Breakfast was ready in the restaurant. Han Yun walked in, looked around, and asked, "Isn't Wanwan coming down yet?"
Cao Han prepared the dishes, his face filled with worry. "The young lady hasn't been eating or sleeping well these past few days, and she's lost a lot of weight. I just called her to have breakfast, but she said she had no appetite."
Cao Han placed the bird's nest on a tray and prepared to pick it up. "Madam, shall I take it upstairs to the young lady?"
Han Yun sat down and waved her hand, "Let her come down to eat. It's not a good thing for her not to come downstairs every day."
"But the young lady said that she won't come down until Young Master Xiyan comes back." Cao Han was worried. "If this goes on, the young lady's health will collapse again."
Speaking of this, Han Yun was actually a little angry. She was angry that Lu Xiyan didn't take her daughter seriously and dared to leave without regard for the objections of both families on the eve of the engagement!
But what made her even more angry was that her daughter had refused to eat or drink for the entire day because of this matter, and finally fainted and was admitted to the hospital due to exhaustion. She had just been released from the hospital two days ago, and she was still disobedient and didn't take care of her body at all for Lu Xiyan!
These past few days, she'd been trying to persuade and persuade Wanwan, but she wouldn't listen to a single word. Cheng Shao had also tried to coax her, promising to buy her limited-edition jewelry and take her on vacation to Europe, but Cheng Wanwan only asked, "When will Xiyan be back?"
Han Yun was at her wit's end and was so angry that she had a migraine.
"Our dignified Cheng family, looking across the entire Jinghai and the entire country, who's son of a high-ranking official is not worthy of us? Why is she so stubborn and insists on throwing herself all her heart on that Lu Xiyan!"
Han Yun rubbed her aching head and said, "This Lu Xiyan is really pissing me off! I think this marriage has to be arranged. I'll talk to Old Cheng someday and tell him that our Cheng family doesn't want this crappy marriage anymore!"
Hearing this, Cao Han hurriedly said, "Madam, you can't do this. Young Master Xiyan has indeed gone too far in this matter, but he will come back sooner or later. As long as he comes back, this engagement must be done. Our young lady really likes him. Only if she marries Young Master Xiyan will she be happy in this life."
After saying this, she glanced at Han Yun, who had closed her eyes in anger, and asked, "Madam, don't you want the young lady to live a happy life?"
"Of course I do," Han Yun said. "She's my biological daughter. I want her to live a good life more than anyone else."
As soon as he finished speaking, hurried footsteps were heard on the stairs.
"Mom! Mother Cao!"
Cheng Wanwan hurried downstairs, her face pale as she asked, "I just heard you say Xiyan is back. Is that him? Where is he now?"
"Wanwan?"
When Han Yun saw her coming down, she quickly stood up and waved, "You're finally willing to come down. Come and have dinner with mom."
Before Han Yun could reach out her hand, Cao Han quickly stepped forward and helped Cheng Wanwan sit down, his face overflowing with joy. "Miss, you're finally out of the room. Look, today Aunt Cao asked the kitchen to make all your favorite dishes. Come and eat something."
"Auntie Cao, is Xiyan back?" Cheng Wanwan asked again.
"Young Master Xiyan hasn't come back yet, but he will definitely come back." Cao Han brought the bird's nest to her and coaxed her with a smile, "It's impossible for Mr. Lu to really stop him from entering the Lu family. I estimate that he should be back in the next few days. You should eat well and take care of your body so that you can have the strength to see him."
Cheng Wanwan was not wearing any makeup, and her face looked even paler. She suddenly slammed her palm on the table, her eyes filled with resentment. "Don't blame Xiyan for this. I can see that Xiyan was planning to get engaged to me. This is An Ning's fault! She deliberately messed with me on the eve of my engagement. She called Xiyan and Xiyan left. It must be her! How could she be so mean!"
As she spoke, tears began to fall and she bit her lips tightly.
Han Yun suddenly frowned, "Wanwan, who taught you to curse like that? As a lady from a noble family, no matter how angry you are, you can't say such harsh words."
"Mom!" Cheng Wanwan bit her lip and looked at her, "You're still talking about me at this time!"
Han Yun was about to speak when she was interrupted by Cao Han again.
"Madam is right. Our young lady is a lady from a noble family and doesn't curse."
She bent down to look at Cheng Wanwan, wiping away her tears distressedly, "Mother Cao is a rude person. Mother Cao is scolding you. An Ning is not a good person. This kind of woman is not worthy of being on the stage. She will never be able to marry into the Lu family!"
"Who the hell does she think she is? How dare she hook up with our young lady's fiancé? The next time I see her, I'm going to teach her a lesson!"
"Don't worry, young lady. You are the only one who is worthy of Young Master Xiyan. No matter how much An Ning tries, she will never succeed. Our young lady will definitely be the young lady of the Lu family!"
Hearing Cao Han defending her like this, Cheng Wanwan forced a smile and said, "Mother Cao still loves me."
Seeing her smile, Han Yun thought Cao Han was just saying it to make her happy, and sighed helplessly, "Sister Cao, you just spoil her too much."
Cheng Wanwan felt a little better and drank a few sips of the bird's nest that Cao Wei gave her.
Cao Han's movements were careful and gentle, and his eyes were full of love as he looked at Cheng Wanwan.
It should be reassuring that the nanny loves her own daughter, especially since this nanny has been in the Cheng family for decades and has treated Cheng Wanwan like her own daughter since she was a child. However, Han Yun felt a little uncomfortable at this moment.
Although she doted on her daughter, she would not allow her to do anything out of line. The daughter of the Cheng family represented the reputation of the Cheng family. She would not allow her daughter to say anything vulgar in public. Even if she hated An Ning, she would still have to be tactful in her words.
But it was obvious that Cao Han's vulgar curse made Cheng Wanwan happier. At this moment, they seemed like real mother and daughter, and she seemed like a strict outsider.
Han Yun stirred the spoon in the bowl and asked casually, "Sister Cao, you haven't been back to your hometown in a few years, right?"
"Yes, I haven't been back for many years. My husband died early, so I don't have many relatives in my hometown." Cao Han smiled, "Now the madam, the gentleman, and the young lady are more like my relatives."
Han Yun looked at her. "Don't you have a daughter back home? She's about the same age as Wanwan, and she's not back home now?"
