Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 788 - 790: He’s Feeling Sour Inside

Evening in Shuanghe County. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Because of Xu Nianhua’s return, the whole family sat together happily, enjoying another reunion meal.

"Mom, you’re so biased! When I come home, there aren’t nearly this many tasty dishes! Chicken and duck and everything!" Xu Nian’an looked at the lavish spread and always felt like he was the adopted son and Xu Nianhua was the true blood.

When he came home, he never had the treatment his younger sister did, like getting that large chicken leg.

"What, you’re competing with your little sister? You’re so grown up, do you really think that’s appropriate?"

Ji Ying gave him a sidelong glance and said, "Just focus on your studies and bring a daughter-in-law home soon, then you’ll have chicken every day, guaranteed."

"Really?" Xu Nian’an listened to her words but still found them hard to believe.

"Of course it’s true, if your wife gets pregnant, mom will definitely cook delicious meals for her every day." Ji Ying looked at him with a beaming smile and asked, "So, do you have someone? What’s her name? How old is she, is she also a doctor? How did you meet? Why haven’t you brought her home for your dad and me to meet her?"

Xu Nian’an: "..."

What girlfriend?

He didn’t have a girlfriend.

"Pfft~"

Xu Nianhua couldn’t hold back her laughter. How could the second brother be so adorable? She joined in teasing him, "Second brother, since when did you find us a sister-in-law?"

"Stop teasing." Xu Nian’an glared at her and said, "Whether or not I have a girlfriend, how could you not know?"

"I don’t know." Xu Nianhua shook her head very innocently.

"Little sister, are you in love, hoping I’m in love too?" Xu Nian’an unapologetically shifted the blame. Known to enjoy watching the excitement, he said, "You’ve been staying at Yicheng’s place this past half month, you and..."

He didn’t finish his sentence, but his implication was quite clear.

"Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Yining and I spend our days together, while Brother Yicheng is busy working from morning till night, barely even seeing his face."

Xu Nianhua hurriedly explained, "Mom, Dad, you don’t know, recently Brother Yicheng has been driven crazy with the design for Tianhua Department Store."

"Yicheng, isn’t he still a student?" Ji Ying uncertainly looked towards Xu Qinghe. If she remembered correctly, Pei Yicheng was still a student.

"Yes, he is a student, but, precisely because he is a student, the fact that he designed the Xiyue Hotel makes him really impressive. You know, many employees at the architecture institute aren’t as capable as Pei Yicheng, who secured such a big design project while still a student."

Besides, the current design of Tianhua Department Store, which she had seen, was very modern, no rather, it was ahead of its time. For the next twenty years, that mall’s design wouldn’t be outdated!

"Okay, okay, we get that Yicheng is incredible. If you keep praising him like this, you might just send him soaring to the heavens," Ji Ying said, confident that her daughter wasn’t the kind to behave inappropriately, but her praise for Yicheng still moved her, signifying that her daughter had truly grown up.

"The furniture I make also looks very good, he can’t possibly know how to make furniture too, right?"

Xu Qinghe muttered, as his daughter praised another man, he felt quite sour inside.

"Dad, the furniture you make is definitely the best-looking, the best in the county right now, and later, it’ll be the best-looking in the whole of South City!" Xu Nianhua’s praise, rushing out as if it cost nothing, made Xu Qinghe’s heart bloom with joy.
