Chapter 321 - 321: Old And Childish



Lin Wan recalled that Auntie Bao made her eat a lot of ginger because it was good for her health. Ginger had so many benefits, especially in winter. Ginger could be boiled with water to make tea or to just soak one’s feet to dispel cold.

Lin Wan filled a bucket with warm water, and she asked Auntie Bao to take off her socks.

“Wanwan, you don’t have to do that. I should be taking care of you.”

“Mama Bao, please sit down. We’re a family now. You are older. I should be the one taking care of you.” Lin Wan held Auntie Bao’s hand and led her to the chair.

Li Yanchen placed a chair near her. “Wanwan is right. We’re a family now. You have taken care of her long enough. It’s nice to be taken care of.”

“Mr. Li is so cultured. He’s right. We feel happy when someone cares for us, and we care for them. It’s a different kind of happiness.”

“Wanwan, I’m already so grateful because you and Yanchen have provided a place for me to stay in. How can I let you do all this? I don’t know what to say…

I was always alone until I came to your house and started taking care of you, Wanwan. You gave me a purpose in life.”

When Auntie Bao arrived at Lin Wan’s old house, she was a little hesitant to take care of such a small child. However, little Lin Wan had won her heart. She had promised herself that she would never leave the little child.

“Mama Bao, let’s take care of each other from now on, okay?” Lin Wan hugged her.

Li Yanchen had taken Lin Wan to the place where Auntie Bao claimed to have lived. The village had been almost empty, except for a few elderly people. However, they recognized Auntie Bao’s name. She had no relatives in the village and no other family.

A few years later, after her father passed away, Auntie Bao left the village. No one had even asked for her. Everyone had forgotten about her.

Lin Wan had asked around and finally found the direction to Auntie Bao’s old house. When they reached the place, it was dilapidated. The walls were destroyed, and the roof had caved in.

Lin Wan felt very sad when she saw this. The villagers told her that Auntie Bao used to keep to herself and didn’t go out much. Lin Wan felt that Auntie Bao’s life had been too difficult and lonely.

“I kept your room as it is. See if there’s anything you need. I’ll go and buy it for you.” Auntie Bao brushed her fingers on Lin Wan’s cheek. “From now on, you are my daughter, Wanwan. I have no one but you, so please tolerate me in your life.”

“Mama Bao, come on! You deserve better than this! You’re already so good at being my mother.”

“Ladies… here, soak your feet in here. Please see if the water is alright, ” said Li Yanchen as he prepared the buckets of water for Lin Wan and Auntie Bao to soak their feet in.

That night, Lin Wan stayed in the original host’s room. If Li Yanchen hadn’t gone to her original world and made sure that the other Lin Wan was okay, she wouldn’t have had the heart to stay in this room.

The light in the bedroom was on. The village was very quiet at night.

Lin Wan leaned against the bed frame. “Do you think the other Lin Wan is asleep at this time? Do you think she’s worried about the people she left behind in this world?”

Li Yanchen pulled her into his arms. “That’s possible. But she has He Yuqian by her side. Wanwan… if I hadn’t gone to that world, you wouldn’t have visited this house for an overnight stay, right?”

“Yes… I’d feel bad staying here. But… I think I am alright with it because I know that she’s doing great in the other world. She lives in my house, and I live in hers. I like to believe that both of us are happy in our own different worlds.”

Li Yanchen kissed her on the cheek. “Do you want to bring the kids along and stay here a few more days during the New Year?”

“Yeah. What’s mine is theirs. Haven’t they visited before? The only problem is that there are only a few rooms in this house, so the kids might have to share a room. I already told Auntie Bao to buy a new bed and some extra sheets and blankets.”

“I’m sure they’ll be ecstatic.”

“Yeah. Li Zexin told me he wanted a grandmother who would love him the most. Now that I have a father and a mother, he has a grandfather and a

grandmother. He’ll be delighted.” Li Zexin had told her once that he wished he had a grandmother like Huo Meijun, who doted on Tutu.

At that time, Lin Wan had laughed. It wasn’t like a person could wish for grandparents, and they would materialize in an instant.

“Xinxin said that? That brat never tells me about the things on his mind.” Li Yanchen was peeved. He felt that his sons never shared their wishes with him. He only got to know about it through Lin Wan most of the time.

“You only ever talk about your work. Maybe that’s why. But it’s okay. Fathers usually focus on work, while mothers take care of the family matters.”

“You and your excuses. The fifth episode of the show airs in a few days. I only hope the kids won’t ruin my reputation. I’m going to call them and make it clear. Otherwise, I’m going to protest. If they aren’t going to interact with me, I might as well not join in this episode. I’ll only be a joke in front of the viewers.” Lin Wan was speechless.

“What’s with that face?” said Li Yanchen. “Do you think I’m not serious about the protest or about skipping this episode? I really mean it! I read the comment secretly. The viewers are always making fun of me, and the kids treat me indifferently too. I don’t like it.”

“Ah… Mr. Li, when did you start caring about what others think of you? Why do you read the comments at all?” asked Lin Wan.

“That’s because you guys don’t care about me.” Li Yanchen turned away from Lin Wan.

“What?! Mr. Li, how dare you say that? When have we not cared for you? You’re getting more and more pretentious as you get older.”

“So now I am old and pretentious?!”

“That’s not what I meant!” said Lin Wan. “Hubby, don’t get so worked up. I’m just saying you’re getting more childish day by day. Even more than Li Zexin.”

“You are calling me childish?” said Li Yanchen. “And you three, I suppose, are of the same age?”

Lin Wan sighed. She knew that this conversation was heading nowhere. Li Yanchen would only continue to spout more nonsense no matter what she said.

She just grabbed him, threw him on the bed, and got on top of him. She then leaned down and covered his lips with hers to shut him up.

It was rare for Lin Wan to start it. Her kiss made him dizzy. He forgot that he was supposed to be angry at her and kissed her back. Li Yanchen then lifted her and pressed her down on the bed..
