Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 1108 - 1110: Their Memories

"Mom, do you want to tell Dad about this?" Xu Nianhua looked at Jiang Wanru, who had neatly laid down on the bed, fearing she might regret it, and couldn’t help but remind her.

"It’s nothing, your Dad knows I’m in your room. Come on, let’s have a talk, just the two of us," Jiang Wanru said nonchalantly.

Ever since they reunited, Jiang Wanru had been holding back the impulse to sleep together with Xu Nianhua. Her daughter wasn’t a newborn baby anymore; she was already twenty-two years old and independent. Jiang Wanru was afraid Xu Nianhua would refuse, so she never mentioned it.

Now, as soon as Xu Nianhua spoke, Jiang Wanru climbed onto the bed to rest. She patted the empty spot next to her, looking extremely excited.

"Okay." Xu Nianhua let her hair down and then lay beside Jiang Wanru. The main light in the room was turned off, leaving only the bedside lamp, casting a dim light that seemed to add a hazy filter.

Facing each other, Xu Nianhua and Jiang Wanru were momentarily at a loss for words.

"Nianhua, don’t be afraid, this kind of thing will definitely not happen again," Jiang Wanru held her hand, eyes filled with lingering fear, as she comforted Xu Nianhua. "From now on, let either your Dad or your brother take you to school, with the driver as well. You’ll be absolutely safe."

"Mom, that’s a bit over the top. This was just an accident." Xu Nianhua had fully calmed down by now, and although scared, she knew such things were a rarity.

"No, it’s necessary." Jiang Wanru said firmly, "Your Dad and brother will definitely come up with a solution. We don’t need to worry about it. Does your stomach hurt? How about I give you a rub?"

"It doesn’t hurt." Xu Nianhua quickly changed the subject, "Oh, Mom, I want to learn some self-defense skills. Nothing too intense, just simple things for protection."

"It’s very tough," Jiang Wanru said, not wanting her daughter to suffer.

"Mom, I’m not afraid of hardship. I feel learning some self-defense skills would be really useful." Xu Nianhua moved closer, playfully saying, "Mom, I want to learn."

Jiang Wanru couldn’t resist her eager eyes and simply said, "Alright then, tomorrow we’ll let your brother help you find a place. But you mustn’t complain it’s tough."

"I’m not afraid." Xu Nianhua flashed a sweet smile.

Jiang Wanru suddenly remembered something and asked, "Nianhua, can you tell me how you and Yicheng met?"

"Uh..."

Xu Nianhua paused for a moment before she said, "We met under a persimmon tree. At that time, his leg hadn’t healed yet."

"He definitely fell for you at first sight," Jiang Wanru said confidently, knowing how beautiful and talented her daughter was.

"No." Xu Nianhua shook her head and tried hard to recall the situation, "Back then, his leg hadn’t healed and he looked really disheartened. Plus, the first time, I heard him telling Grandpa Du that I looked skinny like a dried-up bean sprout!"

Just recalling that made Xu Nianhua grit her teeth with anger.

"You may be thin, but how do you look like a bean sprout?" Jiang Wanru, seeing her daughter’s well-developed figure, couldn’t help asking, "What happened later?"

"Mom, you’ll never guess what he did afterwards." Xu Nianhua mentioned the third meeting indignantly.

"What did he do?" Jiang Wanru asked, highly curious.

"He sent a chicken!"

Xu Nianhua emphasized ’a chicken’ with extra pronunciation, "Would you say that’s too much?"

"Too much." Jiang Wanru nodded without thinking, sharing a sense of indignation, "Was it an apology for saying something wrong or trying to nourish you?"
