Chapter 161 Did he bully you? Or did he say something to you?
Although Chenchen was somewhat dissatisfied with Lu Yiran, he still liked this grandmother very much.
Moreover, Mu Nanyan had said before that Old Madam Lu was very kind to her. Chenchen didn't want to offend Old Madam Lu, so he walked over obediently and sat next to her.
"What took you so long? Did you go somewhere far away?"
Old Mrs. Lu looked at Chenchen with a hint of concern in her tone.
Mu Nanyan smiled awkwardly and explained:
"No, I got lost in the back garden. It's so big there, and I couldn't tell the direction for a moment."
Mrs. Lu listened and shook her head with a smile:
"So that's how it is. If I had known earlier, I would have asked someone to take you there, so you wouldn't have to go around in circles."
Mu Nanyan smiled and changed the subject:
"Grandma, I have something else to do today, so I may not be able to have dinner at the old house. I'll come to see you when I have time later, okay?"
She looked at Mrs. Lu with an apologetic look on her face, a hint of apology in her tone.
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she was obviously dissatisfied and frowned:
"Are you in a hurry? Let's go after lunch. The old man hasn't even seen his great-grandson yet."
Mu Nanyan felt a little embarrassed, but thinking of Chenchen's emotions and her concerns, she insisted:
"Grandma, I'm really sorry. Next time I will definitely bring Chenchen here earlier and have a good meal with you and Grandpa."
Seeing her resolute attitude, Mrs. Lu couldn't persuade her to stay. She just sighed with a hint of regret in her tone:
"Okay, then come back often when you have time."
Mu Nanyan nodded, feeling a little guilty. She held Chenchen's hand, said goodbye to Mrs. Lu, and left the old house.
Mu Nanyan had already booked a flight back to Haicheng, so she took a taxi directly to the airport.
On the way, she sent a message to Tang Yutong, briefly explained the situation, and then took Chenchen on the return flight.
Sitting on the plane, Chenchen leaned on Mu Nanyan's shoulder, feeling depressed.
Seeing Chenchen's low mood, Mu Nanyan felt a little worried. She gently touched Chenchen's head and asked softly:
"Chenchen, did you encounter anything when you went out to play today? Can you tell me about it?"
Chenchen still said nothing, just lowered his head, his little hands tightly grasping the corner of Mu Nanyan's clothes.
Mu Nanyan saw that Chenchen didn't want to talk, so she stopped asking and changed the subject:
"Are you hungry? Do you want me to order you something to eat?"
Chenchen nodded, still saying nothing.
Mu Nanyan called the flight attendant. The flight from Beijing to Haicheng took only more than two hours, and only some water, snacks and refreshments were provided on the plane.
Mu Nanyan bought a bottle of water and a sandwich, carefully unpacked them, and handed them to Chenchen:
"Eat, fill your stomach first, and I'll take you to eat something delicious after we get off the plane."
Chenchen took it and started eating it in small bites.
After eating and drinking, he seemed to be in a better mood and was no longer as depressed as before.
After a while, Chenchen hesitated for a long time before cautiously asking:
"Sister Yan, will you be with that uncle in the future?"
Mu Nanyan was stunned for a moment, then realized that the uncle Chenchen was talking about should be Lu Yiran.
She was a little confused, not knowing why Chenchen suddenly asked this, so she asked softly:
"Why are you asking this suddenly? Do you want us to be together, or not?"
Chenchen said without hesitation:
"In no mood."
Mu Nanyan didn't expect Chenchen's reaction to be so strong. She was a little surprised. She frowned and asked:
"You suddenly don't want to stay there today, is it because of that uncle?"
Chenchen stopped talking again, just lowered his head and fiddled with his little hands nervously.
Seeing this, Mu Nanyan had already guessed about 70% of the answer. She continued to ask:
"Did he bully you? Or did he say anything to you?"
Chenchen shook his head and said in a low voice:
"He didn't bully me, I just don't like him, and he's not worthy of Sister Yan. Sister Yan, please don't be with him, okay? Godfather is much better than him. If that doesn't work, Su Xiaonuan's uncle is also okay. I think he's better than him."
Mu Nanyan was amused by Chenchen's words and couldn't help but rub his hair:
"Why do you say it as if I have to find someone to marry? Is it possible that the two of us can live happily together?"
"That's not what I meant. I just want to find someone to take care of Mommy. It's too hard for Mommy to be alone."
Mu Nanyan felt warm in her heart when she heard this, and she patiently explained:
"Chenchen, marriage isn't about finding someone to serve and take care of you. This idea is wrong. Don't think like that anymore."
Chenchen looked at Mu Nanyan with a puzzled look and asked:
"Then why get married?"
"Marriage should be between two people who truly like and love each other deeply, building a warm little family that belongs only to them, and helping and supporting each other in life. If I really get married in the future, it must be because the person and I are extremely in love."
Chenchen nodded, not quite understanding, his little face full of seriousness.
Seeing him like this, Mu Nanyan couldn't help but smiled and rubbed his hair, saying in a gentle tone:
"You are too young now. When you grow up and meet a girl you really like, you will understand why you should get married."
"I won't fall in love with anyone else. I like Sister Yan the most." Chenchen said confidently.
Mu Nanyan was amused by Chenchen's words, but felt a warmth in her heart. She gently pinched Chenchen's cheek and said with a smile:
"Chenchen, when you grow up, you will understand that liking Mommy is different from liking a girl."
Chenchen frowned, obviously not understanding what Mu Nanyan said. He raised his head and said seriously:
"But I think Sister Yan is the best person in the world! I don't want to like anyone else, I just want to be with Sister Yan."
Mu Nanyan smiled and did not continue the topic. She patted Chenchen's back gently and said softly:
"Okay, Chenchen, take a rest first. After we get off the plane, Mommy will take you to eat something delicious."
Chenchen nodded and closed his eyes obediently. Not long after, his breathing became steady and he obviously fell asleep.
Mu Nanyan looked at the layers of clouds outside the window, her thoughts gradually drifting away.
The conversation she had just had with Chenchen was still echoing in her ears, making her think back to her previous marriage, which she had hastily decided on for the sake of profit.
The ending of that marriage was now obvious. She sighed softly and made up her mind:
If she gets married again, she will definitely choose someone she truly loves, rather than compromising for any external factors. She will not casually enter into a loveless marriage, and will not let herself and Chenchen experience that kind of life again.
The plane slowly landed at Haicheng Airport. The fuselage vibrated slightly, accompanied by a slight turbulence, and finally stopped steadily on the runway.
Mu Nanyan patted Chenchen's shoulder gently and called softly:
"Chenchen, wake up, we're here."
