It’s truly like a sudden awakening from a dream!
Li Zhenhua and Shang Wan finally realized it!
Doesn’t Chu Huan like Li Tingyan?
If you like someone, doesn’t it mean you’re constantly worried about them?
Chu Huan clearly knew Li Tingyan was on a disaster relief mission,
so why?
Li Tingyan hit the nail on the head, "Because you’re scared for your life, your little bit of concern for me isn’t enough for you, Chu Huan, to risk coming to the disaster site to help me."
"No, it’s not like that." Chu Huan shook her head as if the dirtiest corner of her heart was being exposed to the outside world, causing her whole body to tremble with embarrassment.
"I-I just thought I was too small and weak, that even if I went, I would only be a burden. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to help..."
Her words sounded so forced that Shang Wan responded coldly,
"Chu Huan, I happen to know you also attended Medical University, just like Yangyang, yet she could rush to the rescue site, going without food, water, or sleep for a day and a night to save Tingyan. What were you doing then?
Just smell the alcohol on you—you didn’t even bother to make up a good story!"
...Chu Huan was utterly speechless.
Shang Wan was completely disappointed in her, "Just leave, don’t come to the Li Family anymore, you’re not welcome here!"
Chu Huan’s eyes turned red as she looked pitifully at Chu Zhan, hoping he would speak on her behalf, but Chu Zhan simply turned away.
Utterly isolated.
Chu Huan bit hard on her lip, knowing all ties with the Li Family were completely severed, and she turned and ran out.
Feeling awkward, Shang Wan looked at Chu Zhan, "Ah Zhan, you won’t be angry with me for treating your sister like this, will you?"
Chu Zhan shook his head, "I think what you said was absolutely right, Aunt."
"Really outrageous, how did I not realize who Chu Huan really was before?"
Shang Wan couldn’t help but mutter softly.
Li Tingyan replied smugly, "That’s because you hadn’t met my wife before; my wife has the ability to see through fake people, and any woman attempting to interfere with us can’t hide from her."
Indeed, that was the truth!
Shang Wan gave a soft snort, uncharacteristically not arguing, but looked at Nianyang, "Yangyang, thank you so much this time. If it weren’t for you, Tingyan would not have survived, and even if he did, he’d have been crippled..."
Nianyang said, "Li Auntie, there’s no need to be formal. Ah Yan is my partner, and I would never let anything happen to him; it’s my duty. Saying otherwise just makes it seem distant."
The family exchanged pleasantries for a while longer, and Li Tingyan, on the pretext of needing rest, drove everyone out, asking only for daily meal deliveries, leaving only Nianyang to take care of him.
"Why did you send everyone away?" Nianyang didn’t put on a pleasant face for Li Tingyan. After all, what happened yesterday was that while proposing to him, he fainted out of shock.
Li Tingyan chuckled, hooking his finger around Nianyang’s,
"Honey, say again what you told me yesterday."
Nianyang’s eyes twinkled, "What did I say, I can’t remember."
Li Tingyan grew anxious, "The part about marrying me, surely you didn’t forget that."
Nianyang pinched his cheek, "You have the nerve to bring it up. I proposed to you, and you fainted—what’s that supposed to mean? You really don’t want to marry me that bad!"
"How could that be!" Li Tingyan became excited, "I dream of marrying you! I just didn’t expect you to bring it up—I was so overwhelmed that I fainted!"
Nianyang snorted.
"Nini, say it again, I want to hear it."
"It’s too late; you fainted yourself yesterday, so it doesn’t count anymore!"
