Most importantly, she hasn’t had a chance to check him out for herself yet! She had always felt regretful about her daughter’s first marriage and wished that she could find a better person the next time around. Plus, she already had two children from her first marriage. If something else went south with her second marriage, the household would turn into a kindergarten!
Then again, after giving that idea some more thought…
It’d be very lively around the house to have all these kids running around all the time!
At a certain age, people would long for the closeness of a family and wanted it to be lively at home every day.
Thinking about that, Ms. Lin Ping finally decided to lower her pride.
She said to her daughter thoughtfully, “You know, sometimes it’s best not be too overly conservative. You should ask him out more often and don’t be so intimidating that he wouldn’t even come inside. You should learn to exercise your girly charm.”
The one thing that she didn’t mention was… Preferably meeting up with more nice guys.
Her daughter was so inexperienced back in the days that she refused to look any further once she had met that Meng guy. As her mother, she was worried sick.
Lin Yiyi was baffled as she listened to the old lady recounting her own personal experience. “That’s how I was able to bag your stepdad; otherwise, he’d still be single to this day.”
Immediately following that statement was nonstop coughing coming from her stepfather.
Lin Yiyi, “……”
That wasn’t what you’ve said before, Ms. Lin Ping!
And, at the same time, the cold look on her instant son behind Ms. Lin Ping just gotten even colder. Noticing that she was looking at him, Meng Yuran turned away. But that arrogant and disdainful look was exactly the same as the one on Ms. Lin Ping.
They were, indeed, grandparent and grandchild. Their tsundere personalities were identical!
“Our Little Yuran feels the same way as well. Even he worries about your marriage. Do you think that’s right?” said Ms. Lin Ping.
Lin Yiyi was stunned. From what she had seen, her instant son had never been fond of any of the men and never been friendly toward Lu Xun. He worried about her marriage, really?
Resigned, Meng Yuran turned to his grandmother and said, “Grandma, I don’t think Mom is ever going to have her act together. It’s probably best if she doesn’t marry into someone else’s family and muddle it up. I think she should just stay home.”
The possibility of a stepfather in the future made him want to punch someone!
Nevertheless, the smile on Ms. Lin Ping became more tender after she heard that. “See? See how much our Little Yuran cares about you?”
And she has that What-Have-I-Told-You look…
Are you sure that was what he meant? Meng Yuran’s lips twitched. and he decided to stop engaging with the two of them. He went back inside of his room and fished out his cellphone.
In his WeChat group, his little buddies were discussing where to go for fun over the National Holidays.
Someone @Meng Yuran.
Then, Li Yuebin’s sad-looking face appeared.
Bingbing: I am hurt that you guys are happily discussing where to go for fun over the holidays! My dad found himself a new girlfriend. I’ve heard that she’s a really feisty one. She broke the legs of her ex-boyfriend and he’s still in the hospital.
Society’s Jie-ge: ……
The Lazy Fool: ……
Nobody knew how to begin comforting him.
Bingbang: It’s over. It’s all over. What if she hits me? As the saying goes, with stepmothers come stepfathers. I don’t believe my cowardly father will fight with her.
Fellow classmate, did your father know that’s your opinion of him?
Nobody else knew what to say to that.
The Lazy Fool: Of course not. Why would she hit you if you didn’t do anything wrong?
Bingbang: But what happens when I do something wrong?
The Lazy Fool: ……
Okay, never mind!
The more he thought about it, the sadder Li Yuebin felt.
After a while, he poked Meng Yuran.
Bingbang: @r, Little Yuran, here's advice from someone who has experienced this. Take the opportunity when you are still your mom’s favorite and handpick your stepfather for her. Don’t wait until she goes blind and picks herself a violent one. You will turn into the punching bag of the both of them then.
R: I know free combat.
Bingbang: ……
Society’s Jie-ge: AHAHAHAHAHA. People are not made the same. Are you seriously comparing yourself to Little Yuran? That’s too funny. HAHAHAHA!
Bingbang: Is it too late for me to go take self defense classes now? QAQ
