Chapter 1332: Don’t always reject her before getting to know her!

Every time Lin Nuan received a love letter, she actually didn’t want to bring it home either. However, someone would always quietly stuff it into Lin Nuan’s workbook or books. Unknowingly, Lin Nuan brought it home, and Liang Mulan discovered it.

Liang Mulan’s education of her children wasn’t that rigid. She would even comment on the words used in those love letters… or even give examples of sentences that contained those words.

“Really? Your brother used to be so popular with young ladies? I thought my son was so ugly that he couldn’t even get a love letter…” Liang Mulan smiled.

Lin Ran was a little lost. She looked at Liang Mulan and said, “Where did you come up with the conclusion that Brother is ugly? Mom, Brother is very popular now. Look at all the blind dates he met up with. All of them were very satisfied with him. If my brother is ugly… would they be that willing to give such good compliments?”

“I thought they were doing that because your brother is young and accomplished!”

Lin Ran was amused by Liang Mulan. “Mom, this society favors good-looking people. They’d think it’s a waste if you’re young but aren’t good-looking! Just like me… if Gu Shaoting wasn’t handsome, I wouldn’t have wooed him either!”

Lin Ran didn’t agree to Liang Mulan’s remark that Lin Chen was ugly because she and Lin Chen were biological siblings! They looked… a little similar. Agreeing with her mom about Lin Chen being ugly, wouldn’t it mean she agreed that she was ugly too?

Gu Shaoting nodded, so looks were important.

Liang Mulan was rendered speechless.

Alright, Liang Mulan admitted that her son was very handsome, but the fact that her handsome son wasn’t in a relationship made her feel depressed.

Halfway through the meal, Yuan Yuan woke up and shouted for her brother. Tuan Tuan ran upstairs first.

Liang Mulan couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh. “When other kids wake up, they’re crying for their mothers. When Yuan Yuan wakes up, she’s crying for her brother! It’s evident that Lin Nuan doesn’t spend much time by her side.”

Lin Nuan had already gone upstairs with Tuan Tuan. Fu Huai’an glanced upstairs and defended his wife. “Yuan Yuan… has been sticking to Tuan Tuan since she was young. Because Yuan Yuan has never been able to sleep the entire night, she sleeps with Tuan Tuan at night. It’s said that babies are more clingy to whoever they sleep with since they’re young! Moreover… Xiao Nuan has already worked hard to find time to accompany the child.”

How could Liang Mulan not be happy to hear Fu Huai’an speak up for Lin Nuan?

Although she couldn’t hide the smile in her eyes, Liang Mulan still said to Fu Huai’an, “Every time I say something to scold Nuan Nuan, you always defend her and help her get away with it.”

Fu Huai’an smiled and didn’t say anything.

Lin Nuan carried Yuan Yuan downstairs. The little missy was no longer crying. Her hair was perfectly braided in pigtails. Her cheeks were pink and fair, and her thick, curly eyelashes were still wet with tears. When she saw her father downstairs, she stretched out her pair of chubby arms and pudgy fingers, shouting, “Hug… Hug… DaDa… Hug!”

It was a little difficult for Yuan Yuan to call Fu Huai’an ‘daddy’. She would call him ‘DaDa’ instead.

Fu Huai’an smiled and reached out to carry his chubby daughter. He asked her, “Is Yuan Yuan hungry? Do you want to drink milk-milk?”

The young lady repeated Fu Huai’an’s words, her voice sounding especially pleasant. “Milk-milk…”

Lin Nuan brought the milk bottle over, and the young lady sat in her father’s arms, drinking the milk with both hands on the bottle. Her large, black and moist eyes looked back and forth at the dining table. Finally, her gaze landed on Gu Shaoting, a face she’d never seen before.

When his pure, glass-like eyes met the young lady’s, which was as clean as water, Gu Shaoting felt that a certain spot in his heart was about to melt. He turned to look at Lin Ran, leaning closer to her and whispered, “Let’s have a daughter after getting married!”

Lin Ran was stunned. She frowned and glared at Gu Shaoting.

Seeing that the kids were happy, Old Madam Lin was incredibly happy today. When her gaze landed on Lin Chen, she thought of the young lady who had given Lin Chen a watch earlier, so she said, “If the young lady who gave you a watch is a decent lady, you can get to know her first! Don’t reject her before you even try to get to know her!”

Lin Chen, who was eating, was speechless.

Their family gathering that day basically revolved around the two children and Lin Chen’s marriage.

That night, Lin Chen came out to meet his friends and drove to the beach.

The overly concerned family members of his marriage made him feel pressured…

He turned off the engine and got out of the car, breathing in the cold sea breeze. Lin Chen leaned against the car and unbuttoned his jacket before lighting up a cigarette.

He still remembered that his idea of marriage in the past was to marry a lady who was beneficial to his family and career. There were many examples of business marriages.

However, ever since that layer of blurry sandpaper in his heart was exposed because of Liang Mulan’s request for him to consider marrying Lin Nuan, the feelings he had been hiding tore out. It was so overwhelming that… Lin Chen couldn’t control himself.

He took a deep puff of his cigarette and lowered his head, staring at the flickering red light on his fingertips. His eyes narrowed…

Later, Lin Chen’s entire heart was filled up by Lin Nuan, so there was no place there for other women.

And it was precisely because of this that Lin Chen seemed to be just making do with any woman he was with…

He couldn’t even make do with things while dating, much less be able to make do with things in marriage.

Just as Liang Mulan had said, there were plenty of girls who went on blind dates with Lin Chen. But perhaps… it wasn’t that they didn’t have a common topic, nor was it that their personalities weren’t suitable.

It was Lin Chen’s subconscious rejection…

Lin Chen had always controlled his emotions of loving Lin Nuan well.

When he found out that Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an were married and knew that Lin Nuan truly loved Fu Huai’an, Lin Chen was willing to restrain himself not to interfere. He decided not to cross that boundary and gave his blessings to Lin Nuan as her older brother. He avoided her and reduced their interactions in order to prevent the feelings he had for her to grow bigger.

However, Lin Chen didn’t have the confidence to control his relationship with the other girls.

While he wasn’t willing to make do with others, he also felt that having another person in his heart while dating or getting married to another person was unfair and insulting.

Lin Chen raised his head and his gaze landed on a romantic couple on the beach, walking hand in hand, leaning close to each other. His lips curled up slightly.

He remembered that when Lin Nuan first entered middle school, she liked to get him to walk with her after dinner. Although Lin Chen was reluctant, since it was his younger sister’s wish, he still took Lin Nuan to the beach with his bike to take a walk and pick up shells.

She clearly lived in Haicheng, but Lin Nuan liked the sea so much.

Later… when Lin Chen became taxed by his studies, Lin Nuan stopped pestering him to stroll by the beach. It was all because of Liang Mulan and his grandmother!

Actually, Lin Chen had never really liked the beach.

Especially in the summer, when there were too many people, and it was too noisy. Even the air was moist and sticky. He’d rather stay at home…
