Upon hearing this, the girl subconsciously looked at her clothes and, finding that they weren't wet, relaxed again, pursing her lips and remaining silent.
Perhaps thinking of his daughter, the uncle became more talkative.
"Why are you crying? Did you break up with your boyfriend?"
The girl shook her head; she wasn't heartbroken.
"Did you have a fight with your family?"
"Um... my family doesn't really approve of my current boyfriend."
Perhaps because the uncle was kind and approachable, Yan Xici inexplicably revealed her story.
Upon hearing this, the uncle was stunned. Good heavens, he had guessed right!
Two more were planted!
"What does your boyfriend do?" the middle-aged man asked instinctively.
"Liberal librarian."
"So, do you think he's a good person? I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about how he treats his friends and such," the uncle continued to ask.
As someone who has been through this myself and is also a father of a daughter, I know that parents usually disagree with a relationship for one of two reasons: either the job is not good enough and they think the person is not successful, or the person has character issues.
The girl blinked and said earnestly, "He has a very good character. He's very kind to me and to the people around him. Many people like him."
She truly believed it; in her heart, Xiao Ran was the best man in the world.
Seeing her eagerness to explain herself, the uncle couldn't help but laugh.
"Look at you, you obviously really like your boyfriend, don't you?"
"Actually, if the two points I asked you about are both correct, the parents will generally agree. After all, no parent in the world doesn't want their children to succeed. As long as the child has good character and a good job, the parents have no reason to refuse."
Upon hearing this, the girl fell into deep thought.
If that's what the uncle said, then my parents should be able to accept me being with Xiao Ran, right?
My mom likes Xiao Ran so much, my sister is their daughter, and so am I. She can be with Xiao Ran, so why can't I?
Since my sister has already misunderstood, why not just tell Mom and Dad the same thing? After all, she's their biological daughter. If all else fails, just say you already have a baby!
The more I think about it, the more I feel there's a chance!
After all, she was going to do this for life; it wasn't a game!
Xiao Ran hung up the phone and went to wait at the entrance of the residential area.
The midday sun was blindingly bright. Xiao Ran kept his head down, frowned, and kept glancing at the passing vehicles on the roadside.
Since she didn't say anything, all I could do was stay by her side.
When Yan Xici got out of the car, she said goodbye to the kind driver and walked into the residential area with her head down.
Because she was engrossed in a family drama, the girl didn't see Xiao Ran standing by the roadside at all.
Seeing that she was about to enter the residential area, Xiao Ran quickly walked over and gently patted her on the shoulder.
"What are you thinking about?"
The girl, who was wondering how to bring it up with her parents, was startled by the sudden slap and exclaimed "Ah!"
After recognizing Xiao Ran as the person in front of him, the expression on his face changed from surprise to patting his chest in relief.
She said with a reproachful look, "You scared me to death!"
Xiao Ran chuckled, "Eat properly when you eat, and walk properly when you walk, got it?"
Distraction is bad no matter what you're doing.

PS: To explain the update issue, it's mainly because a family member passed away, and I've been helping out these past few days. Plus, I haven't recovered myself, so I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. That's why the updates haven't been on time. I'll try my best to resume normal updates starting tomorrow. Sorry everyone!
