692: Chapter 691 It’s Not You Who Did the Wrong Thing 692: Chapter 691 It’s Not You Who Did the Wrong Thing ng Xiangnan glanced at the man following beside Lin Dong, then looked at Lin Dong, his tone filled with plea, “Lin Dong, can I speak with you alone for a mont?”
Ever since his sister had gotten into trouble, and faced with their parents’ worried appearances bustling everywhere, he, as a mber of the family, also wanted to contribute to his sister’s cause.
Even though his sister had done sothing wrong, in his opinion, it wasn’t severe enough to rit harsh punishnt!
After all, Lin Dong wasn’t involved in any major issue, was she?
But since Lin Dong had been discharged from the hospital, he found it difficult to approach her to plead for rcy.
Today, having finally encountered Lin Dong, he wanted to apologize sincerely on one hand, and on the other, what he most wanted was to beg for rcy, to ask them to spare his sister.
He had already heard who Lin Dong’s maternal grandfather was, and together with his uncle’s forr superior, they had joined forces to seek revenge for Lin Dong; his family indeed could not contend them.
Lin Dong glanced at Jiu Yuan beside him; today, when he left ho for school, both his grandfather and elder sister were worried about him coming alone, insisting on accompanying him.
How could he agree to that?
In the end, he chose a compromise, which was to have Jiu Yuan accompany him for protection.
Not for himself, but for the sake of the relatives who loved him, he would also be extra cautious.
ng Xiangnan was no stranger; he was ng Xiangzi’s younger brother!
Who knows if he might harbor any malicious intentions?
Nowadays, he couldn’t afford any more troubles!
Otherwise, not to ntion others, even his pregnant elder sister couldn’t withstand another blow!
“If you have anything to say, just say it!
This is my elder brother Jiu, not a stranger!”
Jiu Yuan stood silently beside Lin Dong, dutifully guarding, ready to act imdiately should ng Xiangnan make any sudden move.
ng Xiangnan saw Lin Dong’s insistence, and after another glance at Jiu Yuan’s stern face, he couldn’t help but sigh in resignation.
How could he not understand why Lin Dong was so cautious with him?
“Lin Dong!
I’m sorry!
I also need to apologize on behalf of my sister!
She’s currently locked up in a detention center, which is actually quite pitiable…
could you perhaps forgive her…
let…”
The thought of his sister, who had been pampered from childhood and was now in a harsh detention center, made his heart ache intensely.
Lin Dong indifferently gestured for him to stop speaking further, “ng Xiangnan, you don’t need to apologize to !
The one who did the wrong thing wasn’t you!
And…
I am not capable of generously forgiving or sparing anyone!
The ti for my exam is approaching.
I need to go!”
He and ng Xiangnan shared a dormitory, and their relationship was quite good.
But this ti, what ng Xiangzi did not only severely hurt him physically and emotionally but also nearly endangered his elder sister!
Being beaten himself was actually not a big deal, but his elder sister had finally gotten pregnant, and if her pregnancy was hard because of his issue, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life!
Therefore, no matter how pitiable ng Xiangnan’s plea sounded, how could he possibly feel compassion for ng Xiangzi?
ng Xiangnan stubbornly grabbed Lin Dong’s arm, “Lin Dong!
Please, can you spare my sister?
She really just lost her mind temporarily when she did those wrong things!
Rest assured!
As long as you can spare her, she will definitely not appear before you again!
Our family will send her far away imdiately!”
These were the plans he had overheard his parents discussing; their intention was, as long as his sister didn’t end up in prison, even sending her far away was acceptable.
Lin Dong’s expression darkened, and before coming to school, he had thought about what it would be like encountering ng Xiangnan.
But he hadn’t expected ng Xiangnan to plead so humbly!
“ng Xiangnan!
You pleading with now to spare her, did she think to spare , or my elder sister, when she did those things?
Try to put yourself in our shoes!
Let go!”
Xiangnan stared straight at Lin Dong, his gaze unwavering, refusing to let go!
Jiu Yuan squeezed hard on his hand, forcing Xiangnan to release Lin Dong’s wrist because of the pain.
Xiangnan looked dazedly at their retreating backs, his eyes slightly reddened as he murmured to himself, “Why?
Why can’t people just be forgiving…”
…
It had been a few days since Lu Zheng and Lin Xia returned, and they hadn’t visited Guangqi yet.
Now that Lin Dong had gone to take an exam and there were no big matters at ho.
So today, Shao irou accompanied them to visit Fang Youlan’s house.
Fang Youlan and Guangqi had already received a call beforehand, and the couple had prepared a lavish spread of dishes at ho.
Lu Shuhui and Pengfei were also called back ho.
Everyone sat together, eating and chatting; the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
To fulfill her duties as a hostess, Fang Youlan specifically got up to serve Lin Xia, who was pregnant, several more dishes.
“Lin Xia!
You must be careful with what you eat when you’re pregnant!
Definitely avoid cold dishes and eat more nutritious ones!
Then you’ll give birth to a healthy chubby boy!”
Lin Xia smiled, “Grandma!
I’ll be careful!”
Yet in her heart, she was complaining that it was good this visit was just an occasional occurrence, otherwise she would really suffer from indigestion.
From the mont the three of them entered the door, Fang Youlan’s mouth seed never to stop.
Every third sentence was about the great-grandson, making it seem as if the baby she was carrying was definitely a boy.
Lu Zheng smoothed things over, “Grandma!
You eat too!
The dishes will get cold!”
Fang Youlan, feeling cared-for by her eldest grandson, was imnsely comforted.
Being an elder, how could she hold a grudge against her own grandson?
The past conflicts also drifted away with the wind.
“Alright!
Xiaozheng!
You eat too!
Grandma rembers these few dishes are your favorites!”
“Thank you, Grandma!” Lu Zheng glanced at the spread on the table, so of which he indeed loved, but many of the dishes were sour.
After a while, Fang Youlan saw Lin Xia rely pushing the white rice around in her bowl and not eating the dishes she had served, which made her feel uncomfortable.
What does this an?
Does she look down on an old woman like ?
“Lin Xia!
Is it that the dishes aren’t to your taste?”
Lin Xia was still suffering greatly from morning sickness; the dishes Fang Youlan had served included braised fish and pickled pork belly, but she hadn’t touched them at all.
Lin Xia candidly explained, “Not exactly!
It’s just that my morning sickness is severe right now, and I can’t eat anything too greasy!”
Fang Youlan raised an eyebrow: “How can that be?
You need to eat, and so does the baby!
Let tell you, this fish and at are good stuff, very nutritious!
Back when I was pregnant with your father, life was exceptionally tough, and just having enough to eat was good enough!
Having a boiled egg was for New Year’s!
Where could we even get fish, at, or eggs?
So you see, you’re fortunate now, able to eat whatever you want!
Try a bit, maybe the flavors prepared by the housekeeper will suit your taste.
You’ll be fine after eating!”
Shao irou knew her mother-in-law’s temperant; she had spoken this plainly, and if Lin Xia didn’t eat, it could likely cause a scene at the dinner table.
“Lin Xia!
Then try so!”
