Luo Yan couldn't speak clearly and waved her hand at Xiao Xiu.
Xiao Xiu walked over and took the phone from Luo Yan, then recounted how Xiang Yu had called home and arranged to meet Luo Shicheng in Beijing.
Xia Suya laughed, "Oh dear, I wondered what was wrong. I know Xiang Yu, there's no problem."
Luo Yan sensed something was wrong, her face tensed, and she shouted into the microphone.
"Mom and Dad, no Auntie."
As long as Luo Shicheng and Hua Li are not divorced, they cannot tolerate a third party. If you condone it, you will be accomplices in destroying the family.
Xia Suya heard the anger in the child's voice and was stunned for a moment.
"Why do you have such a big problem with your Aunt Xiangyu?"
It seems Xia Suya was completely unaware of Xiang Yu's inappropriate attitude towards Luo Shicheng, Luo Yan emphasized.
"Auntie is naughty, hmph."
If you still side with Xiang Yu, then don't be my grandma anymore.
Realizing that Luo Yan genuinely disliked Xiang Yu, Xia Suya pondered for a moment and said...
"Grandma will tell you that Aunt Xiangyu will stay far away from your father from now on, and she's not allowed to upset my Yanyan anymore, okay?"
Luo Yan was still angry, "Auntie, please speak up."
Xia Suya readily agreed, "Your home phone number was given to you by your grandmother, so your grandmother was wrong."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiu understood why Luo Yan was angry and added to the explanation.
"When Aunt Hua came back, Uncle Luo ignored her and even made an appointment with Aunt Xiang Yu to meet in Beijing. Aunt Hua was so angry that she cried."
Hearing Luo Yan angrily complaining to Xia Suya outside, Hua Li came out of the house and happened to hear this. She was both annoyed and amused, so she came over and called Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu.
"Don't talk nonsense to Grandma, give the phone to Dad."
Xia Suya heard Hua Li's voice and told Xiao Xiu to let Hua Li answer the phone.
Hua Li had no reason not to answer the phone from her elders, so she answered and listened to Xia Suya's words.
“I didn’t know Xiang Yu was so reckless. Don’t worry, when Shi Cheng comes over, I’ll have his second brother keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn’t meet with Xiang Yu in private.”
Hua Li said nonchalantly, "Mom, it's Luo Shicheng's freedom to associate with whomever he wants. You really don't need to do this."
Xia Suya sensed something was off about Hua Li's words, so she chatted with him for a few minutes before hanging up.
After ending the call, Hua Li looked at Luo Shicheng.
"I won't stop you from finding someone else, but if you get a girlfriend, don't hide it from me. I'm ready to help you get a divorce anytime, so please give me enough time to move. Don't make me a laughing stock in other people's eyes."
Luo Shicheng was dumbfounded. "I... I only answered a phone call. How come I'm talking about divorce and moving out? Where did you get these conclusions?"
In the past, Hua Li would have kept it to herself, but now that even her tiny daughter knows to speak up for her, how can she remain silent?
"Your parents also know your godfather, so why did Xiang Yu have to call you when your godfather was sick?"
Notifying you is one thing, but they kept confirming whether you would come and said they would wait for you.
Even if someone is waiting for you, that person should be your sick godfather who misses you. When did it become Xiang Yu's turn?
Besides, I've already gone inside. When you saw me, you didn't even say, "Your sister-in-law is back." Do you think she's your girlfriend, and I'm just your nominal wife, so you don't need to take her seriously?
Luo Shicheng irritably ran his fingers through his spiky hair. "It's just a few words. I really didn't think that much about it. Trust me."
Hua Li sneered, "Actions speak louder than words. Whether I believe you or not is not important. Just remember, once you've made your decision in Beijing, send me a message so I can handle the paperwork and find a place to live."
Having said it, Hua Li felt much better and went into the kitchen to wash vegetables and cook.
Luo Shicheng glanced at Hua Li, then at the two little ones in front of him, and turned to go out to seek guidance from Mo Xian.
Hua Li was cooking when Luo Shicheng returned from outside, carrying twice-cooked pork he had bought from the canteen, and also holding a bunch of wildflowers in his hand.
After putting down his lunchbox, Luo Shicheng handed the flowers to Hua Li.
Hua Li turned her head away and didn't answer. Luo Shicheng went out, filled a glass jar with water, put the flowers in it, and placed it on the master bedroom table.
Seeing the list of jobs that Hua Li had casually written on the paper on the table, listing the types of work one could find outside the supply and marketing cooperative, Luo Shicheng frowned.
As Luo Shicheng walked back to the kitchen, he helped Hua Li with his work.
"You need to be strong yourself to succeed. If you are capable enough, you don't need to worry about your job being taken away. So, Hua Li, if you want to take the college entrance examination, I will fully support you."
With a clang, the spatula slipped from Hua Li's hand and fell to the ground.
This was something she had never thought of, but after hearing Luo Shicheng talk about it, she suddenly felt as if the sky had brightened.
"Can I...?"
Luo Shicheng said firmly, "Nothing is impossible for a willing heart. As long as you want to, your parents and I will support you. As for whether you can pass the exam or what will happen in the future, as long as you have tried your best, that's enough."
Hua Li's slight displeasure suddenly dissipated. "I think so."
Luo Shicheng nodded, "I'll get all the study materials for you when I go to Beijing this time."
Also, don't worry, I don't remember knowing Xiang Yu at all; you've really misunderstood."
Luo Shicheng was very direct, which embarrassed Hua Li.
After the dishes were prepared, Luo Shicheng served rice and called the two children to eat.
Luo Yan overheard Luo Shicheng and Hua Li's conversation, and her mood instantly brightened. She took a spoon and scooped a piece of meat into Luo Shicheng's bowl.
"Dad, eat."
Hua Li also picked up a piece of meat and gave it to Luo Shicheng. The mother and daughter smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was pleasant.
After finishing his meal, Luo Shicheng washed the dishes, changed into casual clothes, and prepared to leave with Luo Yan.
Hua Li and Xiao Xiu saw the father and daughter off at the door.
Luo Shicheng was worried and gave instructions to Hua Li.
"Commander Mo has been at home these past few days. Just call him if you need anything."
I've also spoken to Aunt Shi; she'll pick you up from school after your short break, so you can just go straight home after work.
Xiao Xiu held Luo Yan's hand, her eyes reddening with reluctance.
Luo Yan patted the jade pendant around Xiao Xiu's neck, then touched her own. "We have a shared space and can meet anytime, so please don't look like this, okay?"
Xiao Xiu, "Little sister, I'll miss you."
Luo Yan couldn't stand it anymore, so she waved her hand, grabbed Luo Shicheng's hand, and dragged him away.
Luo Shicheng still carried Luo Yan on his back during the cross-country run.
Her father's rough and unrefined nature was truly something else; Luo Yan was completely impressed.
Arriving at the train station, it was still early, so Luo Shicheng took Luo Yan into the waiting room to wait for their train.
Luo Yan was a little sleepy and nestled in Luo Shicheng's arms to fall asleep. She vaguely felt Luo Shicheng move, opened her eyes, and saw Luo Shicheng walking into the carriage with the flow of people.
Luo Shicheng didn't go to the hard-seat carriage, but went straight to the sleeper berth.
Sleeper tickets are expensive and the purchase process is complicated. There are usually empty seats available, but Luo Shicheng didn't want to make Luo Yan feel uncomfortable, so he directly bought a sleeper ticket.
Luo Shicheng carried Luo Yan to the berth where the ticket was purchased. He first opened his travel bag, took out a small blanket, spread it on the berth, and then put Luo Yan on it.
Luo Yan turned over and went back to sleep, and Luo Shicheng also lay down and fell asleep.
