Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets-Chapter 1174: Dad, Stop Teasing Him

"Xiao Jin, eat first, don’t let yourself go hungry." Lian Qingyang diligently served dishes to Jin Yan, so she didn’t even need to move.

If it weren’t for Jin Yan insisting on eating by herself, looking at Lian Qingyang’s posture, he might even want to feed her.

"You eat too, just watching me eat won’t fill you up."

Jin Yan said irritably, scooping rice for Lian Qingyang with her round eyes glancing at him, then quickly lowering her head to eat. She said, "If you don’t eat and it’s just me eating, won’t it seem like I’m eating too much?"

"Okay, we’ll eat together."

Lian Qingyang’s smile almost extended to his ears. Though they were having a meal, his eyes never left Jin Yan.

It was clearly a simple meal, yet it made both of them eat happily.

"Xiao Jin."

Lian Qingyang handed over a napkin to wipe the oil from the corner of her mouth, not giving her a chance to refuse, pulling her close to sit beside him. He took a deep breath and said, "When I go back, I’ll talk to my dad about going to your house to propose."

"No, to discuss the wedding date." Lian Qingyang said firmly.

They must get married quickly; who knows, she might already have their baby in her belly?

"No way."

Jin Yan refused: "If we get married early, wouldn’t everyone think, think..."

Recalling her mother’s repeated advice not to have relations with Lian Qingyang before marriage, yet, she had broken the promise.

If her mom found out, would she chop off her feet?

Jin Yan didn’t dare to bring it up; she said, "Lian Qingyang, we can get married later this year as we planned."

"No." Lian Qingyang’s gaze fell on her stomach.

Jin Yan’s voice weakened, "It can’t be that easy to conceive a child."

No precautions were taken yesterday, but Jin Yan knew better. Besides, getting pregnant isn’t that simple, is it?

"No taking medicine, that medicine isn’t good for the body." Lian Qingyang reminded her, deciding to stay by Jin Yan’s side for a few days.

Suddenly, the phone rang. Tang Yue called Lian Qingyang, saying: "Dad is here, having a meal at home. Bring Xiao Yan back for dinner, I made chicken soup to nourish her."

"Okay."

Lian Qingyang agreed, already planning to bring up the issue with dad.

"I won’t go. I, I’d better go home." At this moment, Jin Yan felt embarrassed to meet Tang Yue.

"My sister rarely cooks. Are you sure you don’t want to come?" Lian Qingyang approached, inquiring. Before Jin Yan could refuse, he carried her out.

When the door opened, Jin Yan hid in his arms, whispering, "There are people, Lian Xiaoyang, don’t you have any shame?"

"What’s there to be afraid of?" Lian Qingyang said confidently, "We’re almost married, what’s wrong with a little affection between us as husband and wife?"

"Xiao Yan, don’t worry, everyone will envy you."

Lian Qingyang grinned and carried Jin Yan to the car, fastening her seatbelt. After buckling her in to prevent her from escaping, he sneakily kissed her cheek and said, "Xiao Jin, if you leave, I will certainly come to the Jin Family to find you."

"Lian Xiaoyang, you did it on purpose!" Jin Yan pouted at Lian Qingyang, wondering why she hadn’t noticed before how shameless he was.

All the way to the Siheyuan, Jin Yan was hesitant to get out of the car, she hesitated, "Lian Qingyang, didn’t your sister say your dad was coming too? I’d better not. I didn’t bring anything. It’s not very polite to show up empty-handed."

"My dad is your dad too. What’s wrong with seeing him if he visits?" Lian Qingyang comforted her, "Don’t worry, my dad is very pleased with you, he’s praised you several times in front of my sister."

"Really?" Jin Yan was half doubtful.

"Of course it’s true, why would I lie to you." What Lian Qingyang said was true; Lian He was truly pleased with Jin Yan. To him, as long as the girl had good character and treated him and his sister well, her background didn’t matter.

"But today is just not suitable." Jin Yan shook her head like a rattle drum, especially after what happened with Lian Qingyang yesterday...

Meeting Lian Qingyang’s father today was simply too awkward for her.

"Dad doesn’t visit often. Do you think he would be upset if you didn’t come in?"

Lian Qingyang half-dragged and half-pulled Jin Yan into the house. His sister mentioned nourishing her body, and he also thought Xiao Jin needed it.

The blood-stained sheet from the hotel had already been secretly kept by Lian Qingyang, without Jin Yan knowing.

As soon as they entered, Tang Yue acted as if nothing was amiss, pulling Jin Yan into the room. Tang Yue was warm yet as usual, allowing Jin Yan to slowly let go of her awkwardness. When she met Lian He, she followed Lian Qingyang in calling him ’Dad’.

She had originally intended to change her way of addressing him after the wedding, but with Lian Qingyang cheerfully calling her parents ’Dad’ and ’Mom’ at the Jin house, she felt too embarrassed not to.

"Alright, Xiao Jin, we are all a family, no need to be so formal." Lian He smiled, signaling Jin Yan not to be nervous.

"Dad, Xiao Yan is not nervous, it’s you being too serious."

Tang Yue teased with a laugh, lightening the tense atmosphere in the room.

Meng Siyu brought Zaozao and Chenchen back, making the family atmosphere even livelier.

Before finishing the meal, Lian Qingyang brought up the idea of getting married earlier.

Lian He frowned, asking, "Xiao Yang, you and Xiao Jin have a wedding planned for later this year. Why suddenly rush?"

Lian He made it seem like the one who wanted to speed things up this morning wasn’t him.

"Dad, I just want to marry Xiao Jin sooner. Don’t you want to welcome a daughter-in-law earlier?" Lian Qingyang asked, winking at Tang Yue for support.

Tang Yue cleared her throat, yet before she spoke, Lian He asked, "Xiao Yang, you want to rush the wedding, I have no objections. But does Xiao Jin agree?"

Lian He looked at Jin Yan, his gaze soft. Toward the ’brat,’ he was firm and stern, but for the girl, the daughter-in-law, he needed a softer approach.

"I..." Jin Yan was about to disagree when Lian Qingyang quickly interjected, "Dad, Xiao Jin is a girl. How can she answer if you ask her like that?"

"Dad, stop teasing her." Tang Yue, unable to bear it any longer, found Lian Qingyang’s eagerness to marry both amusing and reassuring.
