Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 768 - 770: Taking the Initiative to Hold Hands
After Wang Yufan settled them at the guest house, he immediately dragged Cao Na away.
"I can’t really keep up." Cao Na truly couldn’t understand why Wang Yufan was in such a hurry.
"I suddenly remembered something, and my sister-in-law should be getting off work." What could Wang Yufan say? He couldn’t just say he was worried about having to treat them to dinner later.
Thinking about the bill from the last meal, Wang Yufan felt heartbroken. It’s really true that when you’re not spending your own money, you don’t know how to save.
Cao Na felt that Wang Yufan probably had other reasons, but upon mentioning her own sister, she immediately pulled Wang Yufan to rush to her elder sister’s house.
"Is my sister doing alright?"
"Is my sister still working?"
"Is my brother-in-law still busy?" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Thinking of her sister and brother-in-law, Cao Na figured they were probably still workaholics like before. But now, her eldest sister’s situation was different, she should take it easy, right?
Thinking of her sister-in-law, Wang Yufan could only say that she truly lived up to being with his cousin, "Sister-in-law still works overtime every day."
Wang Yufan felt embarrassed admitting that even his workaholic grandfather thought his sister-in-law was too dedicated, but his grandfather couldn’t say it outright.
Knowing Cao Na was coming here, his grandfather hadn’t been explicit, but from his recent frequent nagging, he understood what he meant.
Ah, no way, still working overtime? Cao Na was both anxious and angry, "No way, how can she be so reckless?"
Cao Na was furious, feeling her eldest sister was really disregarding her own health, "What about my brother-in-law, why doesn’t he take charge?"
"How can my cousin take charge?" Wang Yufan asked pitifully.
Indeed, since her sister tends to go along with her own desires. In the past, Cao Na felt happy for her sister, thinking that even if she got married late, she married a man who waited for her, loved her, cared for her, and went along with her.
But now, hearing that her brother-in-law couldn’t persuade her, the little universe within Cao Na truly exploded.
"Speed up and lead the way." Cao Na didn’t care if her brother-in-law really shared her sister’s ideas, she just wouldn’t allow her sister to do anything rash.
Right now, Cao Na’s plan was to go home and harshly scold her sister, hoping to wake her up completely. Has she forgotten how many hardships she endured just to recover her health?
Cao Na was eager to go back and chide her sister, not willing to let her continue destroying her health.
But as she pulled Wang Yufan along in her sprint, Zhao Guangran, watching from upstairs at the guest house, felt quite heartbroken.
Zhao Guangran never expected that Cao Na would voluntarily pull that kid Wang Yufan along.
Knowing Cao Na for so many years, she’d never held his hand before. Hmph, Zhao Guangran really couldn’t see what was good about Wang Yufan.
Zhao Xuran came out of the bathroom after a shower, feeling much better, though the room was still a bit hot despite the fan being on.
"What’s wrong?" Zhao Xuran lay down to rest.
Later in the evening when Uncle arrived, they could start dealing with business matters. For now, he needed a good rest, otherwise, he’d have neither energy nor concentration for work.
"I’m just thinking Wang Yufan is worthless." Initially, Zhao Guangran found everything about Wang Yuzhe annoying, but now he definitely found Wang Yufan irritable.
What was going on, had the target shifted? Zhao Xuran knew he’d missed quite a scene, so he got up, went to the window, and looked outside.
Nothing was there. Zhao Xuran didn’t expect his brother, who was so upset he felt like he might explode, to explain anything, so he turned to Gong Ruwen for clarity.
Gong Ruwen was more than happy to help explain, recounting the earlier incident where Cao Na pulled Wang Yufan’s hand to run, emphasizing the hand-holding during the run.
Upon hearing the situation, Zhao Xuran simply responded with "Oh" and continued preparing to relax.
Wow, his elder brother had no reaction, which seemed quite unusual, "Bro, don’t you worry?"
"Worry about what? They’re family. I think Wang Yufan’s alright, after all, he comes from a family of military people." Zhao Xuran felt Wang Yufan was quite a decent person.
Previously, the enthusiasm was purely due to having friends over for a visit, which made him happy.
But there must be other reasons too, ones apart from what they thought, so why should he get agitated?
Decent? What was up with his elder brother’s perspective? Had sitting on a train for so long made him silly, "Bro, how can you think he’s decent?"
"I just think he’s no good." Zhao Guangran was furious.
"But it’s just that Cao Na’s in a hurry. Isn’t her sister around too?" Zhao Xuran turned over, preparing to sleep.
Good grief, how could his brother be thinking of sleeping at a time like this? Zhao Guangran was frantic, "Bro, you can’t be like this."
"Because of her sister, we should be even more involved." Zhao Guangran thought about it and was anxious. What if Cao Na’s sister didn’t mind seeing Cao Na and Wang Yufan together?
Even if she didn’t like the idea, Wang Yufan was her husband’s cousin. If he insisted on doing this, what could she do as a sister-in-law?
After taking a shower, Gong Ruini felt revived, though quite sleepy. But remembering how the trip consisted mostly of eating and sleeping, despite not having the best sleep quality, she felt she had gained some weight.
To avoid gaining weight again, and because of Zhao Guangran’s suggestion for Wang Yufan to spend lavishly by ordering so much food for lunch, the group had thoroughly indulged. Gong Ruini, wanting to digest, waddled over with a small belly.
Then she saw Zhao Guangran blowing up at Zhao Xuran. It surprised her, as Zhao Guangran had never shown such courage or boldness.
Why had he suddenly grown so confrontational here? Could it be the charm of Yangcheng?
Or was Zhao Guangran pushed too far by the Wang Brothers today, throwing caution to the wind?
"Ni Zi, Ni Zi, why didn’t you go with Nana to her sister’s house?" Zhao Guangran’s eyes lit up when he saw Gong Ruini and rushed over.
Uh, having just confronted Zhao Xuran, he turned to her now? What was going on? Gong Ruini initially thought she could watch the drama of Zhao Guangran’s transformation, only to find herself caught up in the commotion.
What was going on? Gong Ruini was dumbfounded, looking towards Gong Ruwen for answers.
"Cao Na took Wang Yufan’s hand and ran." Having said it once, there wasn’t much interest in repeating it, as long as the point was conveyed.
No way, seriously? Gong Ruini couldn’t believe how everyone became so fierce after arriving in Yangcheng.
"Maybe she was eager to see Sister Lili." Gong Ruini remained calm, genuinely believing Cao Na wouldn’t like the Wang Brothers.
Not only was there no romantic interest between them, but the two families wouldn’t intermarry again either. They’d be better off finding another family for a union, maximizing benefits.
If Zhao Guangran had been as perceptive as before, he definitely would’ve noticed the subtleties, but unfortunately, now his eyes were blindfolded, missing the obvious.
