Su Chengyu imdiately clutched his heart dramatically, his face full of hurt: "You’ve wounded ..."
An Baobei quickly said, "Second Uncle, don’t be like this. If I et any nice girls, I’ll introduce them to you."
Su Chengyu’s hurt vanished instantly, his eyes gleaming: "Really?"
"Yeah!" An Baobei nodded emphatically.
Su Chengyu bead, praising repeatedly: "You’re truly my good niece. In the future, you must introduce many girls to . Your Second Uncle’s happiness in life depends on you."
An Jing found it amusing.
Su Changyi was speechless.
Su Haoyu laughed heartily and gave Su Chengyu a playful kick in the butt: "Look at you! Aren’t you afraid Baobei will laugh at you?"
Su Chengyu retorted in annoyance: "In our family, you’re the only one who always makes fun of !"
Su Haoyu thought for a mont before nodding: "Seems like it."
Su Chengyu: "..."
Su Haoyu couldn’t be bothered to continue with Su Chengyu, so he asked An Baobei, "Baobei, how old are you? You can’t be more than eighteen, right? You look like you’re fifteen or sixteen."
"Grandpa, I just look young, but I’m actually already nineteen."
"You’re that old already?" Su Haoyu was surprised. "But it’s okay. Just keep a little distance when you’re out with your dad, to avoid gossip. You and your dad aren’t biologically related after all."
Though he was fifty, he was clear-headed about certain things and didn’t want An Baobei to disturb the harmony of his family. Especially the relationship between his eldest son and daughter-in-law, which he wouldn’t allow anyone to disrupt.
Understanding the deeper aning of Su Haoyu’s words, An Jing felt both touched and amused. An Baobei was her and her husband’s biological daughter. It would be more like An Baobei wouldn’t allow anyone to disrupt her parents. But Su Haoyu’s words were undoubtedly for her sake, and she was truly moved.
"I know!" An Baobei found it funny too, but nodded firmly, "Grandpa, don’t worry. I’m old enough to know my boundaries!"
Her grandpa didn’t know she was her parents’ biological daughter, so she didn’t bla him.
But anyone who dared to disrupt her parents’ relationship, An Baobei wouldn’t let them off!
"That’s good." Su Haoyu nodded in satisfaction, then discussed the wedding plans with An Jing and Su Changyi.
They only had a brief discussion since there were still two full months to prepare, so there was no rush.
Su Chengyu and An Baobei occasionally chid in with their good ideas, creating a particularly harmonious atmosphere among the five family mbers discussing the wedding.
Seeing that An Baobei could fit in and wasn’t shy at all, Su Haoyu and Su Chengyu were quite pleased.
After the simple discussion, it was ti for lunch, and after eating, everyone sat in the living room for a bit before dispersing.
An Jing and Su Changyi took An Baobei to the room prepared for her, which was next to theirs.
Once they were inside and the door closed, An Baobei comnted on Su Chengyu: "Second Uncle is quite amusing."
An Jing first shook her head with a helpless smile, then said, "Your Second Uncle has only one concern now—to find a girlfriend who can tolerate him."
Having heard from An Jing about Su Chengyu’s habit of talking excessively, An Baobei said, "I think Second Uncle should find a girlfriend who likes listening to others. Then she’d probably be able to tolerate him."
