Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 767 - 769: A Matter of Paramount Importance

Chapter 767: Chapter 769: A Matter of Paramount Importance

The Ding Brothers stood at the station exit, thoroughly bored.

"Why aren’t they here yet?"

"Bro, I’m thirsty."

Wang Yuzhe was really getting a headache from his own bothersome brother, "Can’t you be quiet for a bit?"

Wang Yufan looked truly aggrieved, "Bro, I came here early in the morning, I’ve been waiting for over three hours."

"You didn’t get to sleep in, huh? I should’ve just let you go do morning exercises. This guy really doesn’t know how to appreciate things."

If it weren’t for him, this kid would likely be out doing morning exercises again.

Thinking of their grandfather’s ways, Wang Yufan instinctively rubbed his own backside, "Bro, thank you."

"Why do you think Nana decided to come here?" Wang Yufan found it really strange.

How would Wang Yuzhe know, "Since it’s sister-in-law’s order, we just do it."

"True, sister-in-law is pregnant, so it’s normal for family to visit." Wang Yufan actually didn’t care about this.

What he cared about was, "Do you think since sister-in-law is pregnant and family is visiting, maybe someone should host them better, to make it seem grand?"

Hosting is an easy job, not having to wake up early daily for exercise and then train till exhausted.

"Bro, last time when we went to Beijing, the girls hosted us well, and treated us to lots of Beijing cuisine. Now that they’re visiting Yangcheng, we can’t be stingy." Wang Yufan started thinking about how to host them.

In any case, they had to make sure Cao Na had fun and ate well, so sister-in-law would be in a good mood.

When sister-in-law is in a good mood, brother-in-law would be happy too, and then say nice things about them in front of their grandfather, making life much easier.

"No, we can’t be stingy." Seeing his brother already planning how to host, Wang Yuzhe decided not to mention that there were others accompanying Cao Na to Yangcheng, so as not to scare his brother.

Hearing what could be considered praise from his brother, Wang Yufan felt happy, as long as he had his brother’s support and so much help, why worry about grandfather?

Seeing his brother’s smug expression, Wang Yuzhe kept his eyes on the station exit.

A group of people carrying bags approached, although they didn’t look like refugees, they seemed much more disheveled compared to other relaxed passengers disembarking.

"Bro, Nana and Ni Zi are out now." Seeing a group of people flood out, Wang Yufan perked up.

As long as they met them, they could drift back home, considering the task complete. But why did they have a crowd surrounding them, leaving Wang Yufan a bit stunned.

"Who are they?"

"Did you think the two girls could be sent from the north to the south alone?"

"Let alone the fact they’ve run into problems before." Wang Yuzhe was quite pleased to see his brother’s dumbfounded expression. That’s more like it.

Wang Yufan hadn’t ruled out someone accompanying them, but there were just too many people.

"Alright, they’re here, change your expression." No matter how much he wanted to see his brother’s silly face, he had to maintain composure in front of outsiders.

More importantly, they couldn’t let guests think they were unwelcome, "Nana, Ni Zi."

Wang Yuzhe first took the luggage from Cao Na’s hands.

Zhao Guangran’s eyes went wide immediately, focusing entirely on this guy. If he didn’t have a thing for Cao Na, why would he be helping carry her stuff and not Ni Zi’s?

Zhao Guangran’s gaze caught Wang Yuzhe’s attention, but he assumed the other thought he was being excessive by helping Cao Na with her things.

"Xiao Fan, grab the stuff."

Wang Yufan snapped back to reality, "Got it, got it." Swiftly taking the items from Gong Ruini’s hands, "Ni Zi, you guys made it."

"Was the trip hard?" Wang Yufan asked with concern.

"Not too bad." Gong Ruini distanced herself slightly from him, not only because she hadn’t bathed in a while, even with daily cleaning she felt she had a smell, but also because Wang Yufan’s sweaty scent made her feel a bit queasy.

"Okay, once we put these down, we’ll go eat." Wang Yufan figured Gong Ruini and the others had a rough time.

"Last time when my brother and I went to Beijing, you and Nana treated us well. Now you’re in Yangcheng, our territory, don’t be shy. I’ll show you around, eat and have fun."

"Although there isn’t a Forbidden City here, Yangcheng has nice scenery."

"The soup here is great, let me tell you, drinking more sweet soup improves your skin, and Ni Zi didn’t you want to know how to make this kind of soup last time? I’ll have the auntie explain it to you."

Gong Ruini had long been interested in Yangcheng’s soups and broths, always wanting to try making them, but hadn’t found someone good to learn from.

Even though Cao Li had been in Yangcheng for a while, she only ate and didn’t cook, too challenging for her as a career woman.

The Wang Brothers only drank the soups, they didn’t know how to make them.

Gong Ruini hadn’t expected Wang Yufan to be so considerate, even arranging a master for her, "Great, thanks Xiao Fan."

"You’re welcome." Wang Yufan considered it a minor issue, but to earn a good review, this little thing had to be done well.

Gong Ruwen, seeing Wang Yufan close with his sister, was displeased, "Didn’t that guy notice Ni Zi keeps trying to get away, yet he still moves closer."

If not for them coming specifically to pick people up at the station and being Cao Li’s relatives, he would’ve pulled his sister away already.

Then he would’ve asked this guy if he knew the rules, didn’t he know men and women should keep their distance?

Zhao Xuran was also a bit annoyed, "Ni Zi."

Hearing her name, Gong Ruini turned to see Zhao Xuran calling her, remembering she hadn’t introduced them properly, "Bro, this is Wang Yufan."

"I am Wang Yuzhe, Wang Yufan’s older brother, our sister-in-law is Nana’s sister." Though Wang Yuzhe hadn’t met those present, they were likely Gong Ruini’s family.

Even though Gong Ruini rarely mentioned her family, it wasn’t like no one knew about her circumstances if she didn’t.

Wang Yuzhe was quite familiar with Gong Ruini’s family, though he wasn’t sure who came, judging by age, it seemed like all the notable ones from her generation had shown up.

As for the woman following, she should be the eldest daughter of the Wan Family, who after marriage and motherhood settled into school teaching without stepping out for trivial matters.

Why would she come this time? Wang Yuzhe found it strange. Their roots were in Beijing, so why come to Yangcheng in such force?

It didn’t look like they were here for fun or tourism, Wang Yuzhe was puzzled for all sorts of reasons, but didn’t realize his brother beside him was about to cry.

Wang Yufan knew with such a large group accompanying Cao Na, there’d be expenses, but he hadn’t expected not only Nana and Ni Zi would be out strolling with him, but an entire bunch. What to do?

Wang Yufan wanted to take back his promise to be a good host and ensure they ate and had fun.

But with them right there, a face-keeping Wang Yufan wouldn’t admit how chicken-hearted he was, he could only grit his teeth and proceed. For men, face is paramount.
