Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xu Baohan’s lips curled into a self-deprecating smile. “I don’t think anyone would welcome me if I went to offer incense. My grandfather might even jump out of his coffin in anger.”

An Lan stared at him silently before taking out the key from her bag. “Let’s go in first.”

After changing his shoes, Xu Baohan walked into the kitchen to get a broom.

An Lan frowned as she walked over to get the broom. She rolled her eyes at him. “Forget it, today’s situation is special. Don’t work anymore, go and sit down.”

Xu Baohan pursed his lips and said in a low voice, “Let me work, I want to find something to do..”

An Lan understood that he was just trying to distract himself.

She didn’t know what to say when she saw him being so insistent.

Xu Baohan took the broom and cleaned up the place, making it even cleaner than before.

An Lan saw this and prepared a bowl of noodles for him. After placing the noodles on the table, she walked over and forcefully threw away the rag in his hand. Then she pulled him to the dining table and sat him down. “Eat.”

Xu Baohan looked at the bowl of noodles on the table. There was a medium-rare poached egg and vegetables on it.

His heart warmed. “An Lan, thank you.”

He turned back to look at her.

An Lan hated herself for being soft-hearted, but she was not an unreasonable person. She was angry, but it was meaningless to torture someone who had family member just passed away.

Everyone had their moments of death, and everyone had their moments of helplessness and sorrow.

Besides, no matter how much Xu Baohan disliked his grandfather, he was still a family member whose blood was thicker than water. There was no way to change that.

“Where is your grandfather’s funeral? Let me accompany you tomorrow,” An Lan said as she sat on the side. “Even if everyone doesn’t welcome you. When people died it was like the lamp extinguished, this is the only way I can send him off.”

Xu Baohan was moved. He didn’t expect her to suggest accompanying him.

His An Lan was a tough-talking but soft-hearted person.

When An Lan saw that he was silent.., she continued, “You didn’t do anything wrong. Your uncle’s accident and your grandfather’s stroke were linked together. So everyone will feel that you are responsible. In this world, there are many things that others may not understand. As long as you don’t have a guilty conscience, it’s fine. I think you can only blame your uncle. He’s such a grown man. He doesn’t behave properly and he did something illegal to make his parents worry. Your grandfather is responsible too, he didn’t educate his son well. Your family’s relatives are responsible too. As brothers and sisters, they are aiding the wicked as they didn’t stop him.”

Xu Baohan stared at her before smiling and reaching out to hug her waist.

This time, An Lan was caught off guard and was hugged by him.

She turned back to glare at him. “Don’t even think about taking the opportunity to act like a hoodlum.”

“An Lan, you’re very good, really good.” Xu Baohan leaned his head on her waist. “I will never do anything to hurt you again.”

An Lan was puzzled. Weren’t they talking about his dead grandfather? Why was he talking about love again?

However, seeing that he wasn’t doing anything else, she decided to let him lean on her for a while.

“An Lan, I don’t want you to go. I’m afraid that you’ll run into my family and my father,” Xu Baohan suddenly said with a complicated tone. “You definitely won’t like them.”

An Lan had a headache and finally said, “Bo Han, my family isn’t that great too, but when we’re together, I’ll always stand by your side in front of my parents’ unreasonable behaviour. As long as you can do that, I think there won’t be any problems.”

Xu Baohan nodded. There was nothing to cherish in a family like that. He only wanted to live a good life with her in the future.
