Chapter 715 - 745: How Can You Be This Cute

Qin Zhonghui’s home was lively and bustling today.

The three brothers hadn’t seen each other in a long time, so now that they were finally gathered together, they naturally had a lot to talk about.

Su Yun and Sun Li, the two sisters-in-law, were in the kitchen cooking and chatting.

Sun Li said, "I’ll probably retire before Bo Gang. I’m not getting any younger, and I just want Xiao Lan to get married and have kids soon. That way, I can come to North City and help take care of them."

Su Yun asked, "So he’ll stay in Ping’an Town for now?"

"Mhm, he can live in the dorms and come to North City to be with us on his days off. He’s older than me, so he can probably retire in another four or five years, too."

Some positions allowed for early retirement, and besides, Sun Li was still a bit worried about her daughter.

Even though she had plenty of relatives here, a mother’s concern was, of course, always on a different level.

Su Yun understood. However, Xiao Jiao had told her not to meddle in Xiao Lan’s love life for the time being, so she just said, "Don’t you worry, Sister-in-law. When fate has its way, there’s no avoiding it."

"Sigh, I know. But as a parent, you just can’t help but worry. Look at your Xiao Jiao, she’s so wonderful. She’s already given you two precious grandchildren—a grandson and a granddaughter."

None of the elders could resist twins.

Sun Li was practically drooling with envy. As soon as she arrived, she showered them with hugs and kisses, even joking that she was going to take one back with her to Ping’an Town.

Of course, she was only joking, but little Qin Zijin very seriously refused. He said earnestly, "Grand-auntie, you can’t do that. I’m the little man of the house. I have to take care of my mommy, daddy, little sister, and Grandma and Grandpa. I can’t leave. My sister can’t leave either. She’s still little and can’t be too far from home."

Hearing the little guy refuse her so earnestly, Sun Li’s heart completely melted.

’How could he be so adorable?’

Of course, she was only teasing the child; she wouldn’t actually take someone’s precious treasure home with her. She had her own daughter, after all. She just needed her daughter to have a few babies for her to look after, and everything would be perfect.

Qin Xiaolan: "..."

Feeling rather speechless, she escaped to her cousin Xiao Shi’s room next door, where she let out a series of dramatic sighs.

Qin Shi put down her fountain pen and flexed her slightly sore wrist. "Sister Xiao Lan, what’s wrong?"

Qin Xiaolan looked at her young cousin, thought for a moment, and then leaned in. "Xiao Shi, if you liked someone and wanted to be with him, but your family didn’t approve, what would you do?"

"Break up."

"Huh?"

"But I don’t like anyone."

"..."

Qin Xiaolan fell silent as she looked at her cousin, who was several years younger than her but had the demeanor of a little adult.

’Great. I asked the wrong person.’

’I’d better go find my older sister, Qin Jiao.’

Qin Xiaolan said, "Xiao Shi, can you do me a favor? Could you go get your older sister for me? I have something to talk to her about. And then you can watch the kids for her."

Xiao Shi was tired of studying anyway, so she nodded. "Okay."

But before she left the room, Xiao Shi looked back and said, "Sister Xiao Lan, I really trust my family’s judgment. If they all dislike someone, it means there’s a problem with that person. At the very least, he isn’t perfect, or he isn’t right for me."

The door slowly closed.

Qin Xiaolan was slightly stunned.

’Other than the fact that he’s been married and has a child, I can’t see anything wrong with Gao Yuan at all.’

’He’s a perfect, outstanding, and gentle man.’

With that thought, Qin Xiaolan resolved to fight for him.
