Everyday Life
Lin Nannan was brimming with confidence, but Lu Hang didn’t give her a chance to show off. Instead, he tactfully said, "Mom, when I said it could be treated, I meant managed—not cured. It won’t get worse, at least."
Zhang Xiaofeng froze for a long moment before letting out a deep sigh. She didn’t dwell on it any further and instead looked at Nan Nan, saying, "A Hang is so lucky to have you!"
Lin Nannan, who’d been enjoying the whole exchange, suddenly blushed at the unexpected praise and replied awkwardly, "Well, it’s because you’ve all been so kind to me!"
If the Lu family hadn’t treated her with such sincerity, she wouldn’t have been so kind to Lu Hang in return.
Catching her meaning, Lu Hang felt the weight of responsibility on his shoulders.
At the guesthouse, they got Lu Hang settled first, so no other rooms were booked initially. Since Lu Hang and Lin Nannan were married, it would be inconvenient for others to stay with them, so two additional rooms were needed.
At this moment, Jiang Qianqian returned, saying her classmate wasn’t available and suggesting Zhang Xiaofeng stay at the school for the night and return the next day. That way, Lu Fang and Lu Ming could room together, so they only needed one more. Zhang Xiaofeng was thrilled—every penny saved on the road counted.
"Nan Nan, your dad and A Ming are here, so A Hang’s covered. Let’s go take a walk around Qianqian’s school!" Zhang Xiaofeng, feeling guilty that Lin Nannan had been tending to Lu Hang every day, warmly suggested.
Everyone except Lin Nannan agreed to the proposal, so her protests ignored, she was dragged along.
Drab walls, people rushing by, young folks on bikes with a cocky air… The lively hum of everyday life spread out before Lin Nannan. She was filled with curiosity, looking around eagerly, realizing that historical depictions paled in comparison to the real thing.
She was just curious, but to some, she looked gullible.
"Sis, this whole strip’s packed with good eats…" Jiang Qianqian, knowing what Lin Nannan liked, introduced with a smile, "This whole area is filled with restaurants—noodles, dumplings, rice dishes, and more…"
Jiang Qianqian’s description made Lin Nannan’s stomach growl.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Nan Nan, you and Qianqian go ahead and eat. I’ll buy some food for A Hang and the others and bring it over, then come find you here later."
Lin Nannan quickly replied, "Let me go with you!"
"No need, you two go ahead. I know where to buy food for them. Here’s some money—" As she reached for her purse, Lin Nannan stopped her. "Mom, I have money. No flashing cash in the open!"
Those words successfully made Zhang Xiaofeng put her money away. Without fuss, she simply said, "Then you two go ahead and eat. I’ll join you soon."
It wasn’t far, so they went along with it.
While Zhang Xiaofeng went to buy food, Lin Nannan grew excited and asked Jiang Qianqian to take her around. After all, opportunities like this were rare—at least until Lu Hang recovered, she wouldn’t be coming back here.
Jiang Qianqian, still smarting from her mom’s lecture, had only one thought in mind: to take her sister-in-law to find delicious food. Thoughts of men? Gone.
But life’s funny—the moment you stop looking, they show up.
After ducking in and out of school without a glimpse of him, Jiang Qianqian and Lin Nannan ran smack into the guy she’d once been dying to marry while heading to eat noodles.
