Chapter 49 Where is your dad?
After comforting Qin Shuhe, An Ran felt a slight doubt in her mind. My eldest cousin and my second cousin not only look alike, but also have similar personalities.
Although the third cousin is also handsome, he is much inferior to his two older brothers.
In particular, the two older brothers have an innate nobility that the third cousin does not have.
An Ran shook her head and didn't think much about it. Maybe, my eldest cousin and his family look like the Lin family, while my third cousin looks like his maternal grandparents’ side.
Lin Huaian sat down and chatted with Lin Qingwan and the others. He had a gentle personality like jade, and talking to people made people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze.
An Ran had a very good first impression of her second cousin and was willing to interact with him more. The few of them chatted casually for a while, and Lin Huaian gradually became amazed at his cousin An Ran.
He couldn't help but look at his cousin differently, and initially thought that An Ran was just a pretty vase.
After all, he also knew that his cousin grew up in the countryside, and it wasn't that he had any prejudice against the countryside. However, the education level in rural areas cannot be compared with that in Beijing.
What's more, he came from a wealthy family and could not be said to be well-informed. However, the things he had been exposed to since he was a child were definitely beyond her reach.
But when Anran chatted with him, no matter it was astronomy, geography or historical records, she could always keep in mind and had her own unique insights.
Lin Huaian's eyes looked at her brighter and brighter, and he felt that he had met her too late.
You know, when he usually talks about these things with the third brother, he always looks confused. Or they just talk nonsense and look impatient.
Qin Shuhe couldn't help laughing when he saw that the second brother looked like he was going to talk until the end of time.
Although the second child was born in modern times, he loves ancient literature very much. The third brother often calls him a nerd.
"Okay, second brother. Look at the time. We can eat soon. If you come back and don't even say hello to your grandfather, be careful or he'll beat you up."
Lin Huaian looked at the watch on his wrist, and suddenly his expression became a little embarrassed. He smiled sheepishly.
"Oh, it's already noon. Cousin Ranran, I'm so sorry to have bothered you for so long."
An Ran raised her eyebrows, then stood up and smiled brightly.
"How could that be? It was a pleasure chatting with my second cousin."
Lin Huaian went upstairs and invited Mr. Lin and his mother down. Lin Huazhi and An Ning went downstairs and introduced Lin Huaian again.
"Where's Huai Xu? Didn't he come back with Huai An? Why isn't he here?"
Old Master Lin was somewhat displeased. He really looked down upon his third grandson. He did not have any of the integrity of their Lin family. He was really hard to like. He didn't know who he took after.
"I'll go get him."
Seeing that Mr. Lin was unhappy, Lin Huaizhi quickly got up and went upstairs.
"Of course, where's your dad?"
At this time, Lin's mother found that she did not see An Guodong, so she asked An Ran.
An Ran was always paying attention to her father's condition with her spiritual sense. She saw that he was now sleeping on the floor, with no expression of pain on his face, and she didn't know when he would wake up.
So she could only smile perfunctorily at Lin's mother.
"Grandma, my dad didn't sleep well last night, so he's catching up on some sleep. He should get up soon."
As they were talking, Lin Huaixu came over behind Lin Huai, staggering with a defiant look on his face.
Mr. Lin felt his eyes hurt as soon as he saw him, and he glared at him with disappointment.
"Old Third, look at what you look like now. How is you any different from a street thug?"
Lin Huaixu raised his eyelids and glanced at Old Man Lin with an impatient look on his face.
"Grandpa, when I, Lin Huaixu, go out, everyone is fawning on me. Why do I look like a street thug?"
Mr. Lin slammed the table angrily, a fierce aura emanating from him, and deep anger was suppressed in his eyes.
"Lin Lao San, whose influence do you think you are relying on? Without the Lin family, who do you think you are?"
When Mr. Lin got angry, everyone fell silent. Even An Ning, the most lively and active one, sat quietly and dared not move. The living room suddenly fell silent.
Mother Lin quickly grabbed Mr. Lin and stroked his chest with her hand.
"Okay, the child finally comes back, why are you so angry? If the child is still immature, you can teach him slowly, don't get yourself hurt by being angry."
"Third brother, apologize to grandpa."
Lin Huaizhi is worthy of being the eldest brother, and he looks like a big brother.
"snort."
Lin Huaixu snorted coldly, turned around and walked away without looking back. Old Master Lin was so angry that he was shaking. He pointed at Lin Huaixu's departing back with a trembling finger.
"A loving mother often spoils her son. Stop his credit card from now on, and no one is allowed to give him a penny. I wonder how arrogant he can be without the Lin family."
Qin Shuhe's face showed embarrassment. No matter how useless her son was, he was still a piece of her flesh and blood. How could she bear to watch him suffer?
Lin's mother and Lin Qingwan came forward together to comfort Grandpa Lin. Seeing that their mother looked sad, Lin Huaizhi and his brother also supported their mother and comforted her.
An Ran and An Ning, brother and sister, stood aside and looked at each other. They were a happy family and had never seen such a scene before.
After the commotion, everyone forgot about An Guodong, and An Ran secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Everyone ate a few bites of food casually, and no one was in the mood to chat, so they dispersed.
Anran prepared to take a walk in the garden because her father was in her room and might not wake up for a while.
It is not convenient for her to go back now. It is not that she dislikes her father, but she just can't stand the smell.
“Of course.”
An Ran stopped when she heard that and turned around to see Lin Qingwan walking towards her from behind.
"Where's your dad?"
"My dad is catching up on his sleep. Didn't I just say that?"
An Ran looked around guiltily, but she didn't dare to look at Lin Qingwan.
Lin Qingwan walked up to her and tapped her head with her finger, saying angrily.
"You are still fooling me. I know you are up to something when I see you like this. Tell me, where did your father go?"
“My dad…my dad….”
An Ran lowered her head, stirring with her fingers constantly, and thought that her father was fine now anyway. The worst that can happen is that we'll all be scolded together later. I suddenly made up my mind and said it out.
"My dad asked me for the spiritual spring water this morning and he's lying in my room now."
When Lin Qingwan heard this, her face turned pale and she turned around anxiously to go to Anran's room.
An Ran quickly grabbed her and comforted her.
"Mom, my dad is fine, you don't have to worry."
Lin Qingwan was so worried that she couldn't stop her tears from flowing down.
"You guys are being too silly. Your dad is not in good health. If something happens, what will you let me do?"
"mom……."
An Ran reached out to wipe her tears, then helped her walk to a nearby pavilion and sit down.
"You've seen how Dad has been these past two days. He's depressed and lacks confidence. He always feels like he's not worthy of you."
Lin Qingwan covered her face, her voice choked with sobs.
"Of course, you know. How could I dislike your father? We have been married for so many years, why doesn't he have any confidence in us?"
"Mom, Dad cares too much about you that's why he's so worried about gains and losses. Our family is bound to go down this path anyway, it's just a matter of sooner or later. Dad is a man, he has his own self-esteem."
An Ran hugged Lin Qing Wan and snuggled into her arms. Lin Qing Wan had a familiar fragrance on her body.
Lin Qingwan didn't say anything else. Her hands unconsciously patted Anran's body, but her eyes were filled with panic.
The mother and daughter snuggled together quietly, waiting for An Guodong's rebirth.
…
"Qingwan, Nannan..."
A familiar voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, and Lin Qingwan turned her head abruptly as if she was awakened.
An Guodong stood behind the two of them, dressed neatly and with a gentle smile on his face.
An Guodong has changed. His eyes are bright and his slightly hunched back has become straight. The whole person exudes a kind of heroic spirit.
"Guodong."
Lin Qingwan stood up, threw herself into An Guodong's arms and burst into tears.
