Chapter 844: Men Are Even More Anxious Than Monkeys These Days
“All right, then.” Lin Xiu stared at Liang Jiaying and said haughtily, “We’re going to keep watching her. If the girl’s character is good, then I won’t be against her for making my son do something stupid.”When it was noon, Liang Jiaying took off her mascot uniform and put on her coat. She said to Qin Shanyuan, “You should have your lunch first. I want to visit my brother.”
Qin Shanyuan quickly put on his coat. “I’ll come with you.”
Liang Jiaying looked at her watch. “If you follow me, you’ll have to eat on the road…”
“It’s okay.” Qin Shanyuan held Liang Jiaying’s hand. “It doesn’t matter to me where or what I’m going to eat. And since I don’t have any money with me right now, I’ll just eat bread.”
Liang Jiaying looked at Qin Shanyuan guiltily. She looked down and followed him out.
When Tian Qihua saw the two of them walking hand in hand, she said in surprise, “Look! Look! They’re holding hands! Xiu Xiu, it seems that Shanyuan has made progress.”
Qin Yu nodded vigorously. “Mom, look! It seems like you’ll be getting a daughter-in-law soon.”
Lin Xiu pursed her lips. “Let’s see where they’re going.”
Tian Qihua immediately pulled Lin Xiu’s hand and opened her mouth. She looked like she wanted to say something but couldn’t. It was obvious that she had something to say at first glance but was also too shy to say it.
Lin Xiu became a little anxious. “Auntie, we’ll lose them if we don’t follow them now.”
Tian Qihua watched Qin Shanyuan’s retreating figure and whispered, “It’s not good for us to follow them, right? What if they -”
She didn’t finish her sentence, but Lin Xiu and Qin Yu understood what she meant.
Qin Yu laughed. “Great-aunt, you’re thinking too much! Nobody does that sort of thing during the day. I think they just went to lunch.”
Lin Xiu couldn’t wait any longer, so she pulled Tian Qihua with her and followed Qin Shanyuan and Liang Jiaying. “My son isn’t such a beast.”
Tian Qihua thought to herself, “It’s hard to tell whether he is such a beast or not. Men are even more anxious than monkeys these days.”
Just as she was thinking about it, she had already been pushed into the car by Lin Xiu.
As the car sped along the highway, Lin Xiu felt that something was wrong. “Why do I feel like the car is driving to Chinatown?”
Tian Qihua had lived in Los Angeles for a long time, so she said confidently, “This is the road to Chinatown.”
“What are they doing in Chinatown? If they are going to work, don’t they have to wear those stupid costumes?” muttered Lin Xiu.
Qin Yu soothed Lin Xiu’s heart. “Mom, until we see it with our own eyes, there is nothing to say. Can you wait for it quietly and see it for yourself?”
Lin Xiu immediately fell silent. She pursed her lips and stared unblinkingly at the car in front of her, afraid she would lose it.
Finally, the taxi stopped in Chinatown.
Lin Xiu and the others immediately got out of the car.
Liang Jiaying and Qin Shanyuan went to the bakery and came out after buying something.
Lin Xiu frowned as she observed. “Why did they buy bread so far away? Weren’t there many bread sellers there earlier?”
Qin Yu and Tian Qihua couldn’t understand this either.
“Hey, they’re leaving. Hurry up and follow them!”
Qin Yu was half-bent and followed them first. Only when Tian Qihua dragged the awkward Lin Xiu did she reluctantly follow her.
It wasn’t that Lin Xiu had anything against Liang Jiaying.
But Qin Shanyuan was her own son. Since he was young, he’d never suffered any grievance, and since when did Qin Shanyuan only nibble on bread at lunch?
Thinking of how Qin Shanyuan behaved for Liang Jiaying, wearing a heavy mascot costume outside in the sun and making people laugh, how could he be full with just eating bread that contained no nutrients?
Tian Qihua could understand Lin Xiu’s feelings, so while following Qin Shanyuan, she tried to persuade Lin Xiu.
“Lin Xiu, don’t think too much. Like I said, before you know what happened, you can’t let yourself be prejudiced against this girl. Like my Jun. As you know, Zixuan was even worse when she first met him. Jun lived alone in the apartment and without any servants. He can’t cook and doesn’t like eating any take-out, do you know how worried I was at that time? But what can I say? For the sake of love, for the sake of the woman he loves, I can only let him do whatever he wants.”
“Exactly!” Qin Yu also spoke up for Qin Shanyuan. “Whose life hasn’t reached a low point? We can’t turn our backs on big brother when he’s at his most difficult time. Mom, please let big brother handle this.”
Lin Xiu almost lost her temper when she heard Qin Yu say that. She almost answered with “you” for Qin Yu’s first question.
Qin Yu was a fan of such a situation, so of course, she couldn’t see much of it.
“Fine, fine.” Lin Xiu sighed, “All of you are right. I promise I won’t get mad, okay?”
Qin Yu tried to curry favor with Lin Xiu by holding her by the arm. “This is the real mother of big brother and me!”
Tian Qihua suddenly lowered her voice and said, “They’ve entered that clinic.”
“Clinic?”
Lin Xiu didn’t pay attention to her journey earlier. Now, when she raised her head and looked at the signboard of the clinic, she realized that this clinic was the clinic she had been to a few days ago. It was also the place where Qin Shanyuan had disappeared for a long time.
According to Lin Xiu’s intuition, something was wrong, and it was also something big.
“Let’s go.” Lin Xiu did not hesitate any longer as she led the way into the clinic.
Liang Jiaying and Qin Shanyuan entered Liang Mingyu’s ward. Liang Jiaying took out the bread she had bought, broke it in half, and fed it to him.
This was not the first time Qin Shanyuan saw Liang Jiaying feeding the bread to Liang Mingyu. The last time, he wanted to ask, since she gave the bread to Liang Mingyu, what did she eat then?
Today, she still wanted to give half of the bread to him…
Qin Shanyuan felt his heartache as he watched.
