CHAPTER 566: CHAPTER 561: YAOYAO THROWS A TANTRUM

Fang Pingying thought for a moment, girls getting married generally need someone by their side, normally it’s the mother who provides courage, but Zhou Yunmei is kind of...

She was truly worried that Luo Honglan would be timid once over there, and it would also look bad in the eyes of the relatives on their side if no one from her maternal family showed up.

Having Luo Honglan by her side for so long, their relationship had long surpassed that of sisters-in-law, she always treated her as her own sister, and she hoped her marriage would be fulfilled and that she would be happy in the future.

After thinking for a bit, she said, "Fine, since your elder brother won’t go, Yu’er and I will go. As for Cheng Fei, he might not get leave, I’ll give Uncle Zeng a call later to ask."

Upon hearing this, Luo Honglan immediately agreed, "Okay."

Actually, she had planned to coax Fang Pingying to go, then find some excuse to have Luo Zhiyong join them as well; once there, it would be difficult for them to make a fuss to return.

Chen Jie certainly wouldn’t tell his family that they had divorced. A lot of arrangements naturally assume they are a couple, naturally giving Luo Zhiyong and Fang Pingying more opportunities to interact.

In Luo Honglan’s view, the affection between the two of them was still present; as long as they were nudged a bit more, they could still be together.

For couples, given a bit more time, any misunderstanding can be resolved.

After Luo Honglan finished speaking, she went back to her room to pack her things.

Seeing Luo Honglan leave, Li Yuchun then called Fang Pingying to help carry Yaoyao and Ruirui, who were sleeping on the sofa, to the room.

After entering the room, Li Yuchun lowered her voice and asked, "Did Zhou Yunmei come over here to stir up trouble again today?"

Knowing she couldn’t hide it, Fang Pingying simply nodded and briefly replied, "There was an incident."

"They bothered you again?"

Fang Pingying shook her head, "No, it has nothing to do with me, it’s her son who’s troubled."

Seeing Fang Pingying was reluctant to reveal the details, Li Yuchun frowned and said, "What exactly happened then?"

After all, it was a shameful matter for the Luo Family, and one less person knowing would save Luo Zhiyong that much more face, Fang Pingying shook her head and said, "It’s the usual, something about money."

"Sigh." Seeing Fang Pingying like this, Li Yuchun didn’t pursue the matter further but advised her with some worry, "Pingying, I know you still have feelings for Zhiyong, but do not be foolish, you’ve finally escaped from the fire pit, you can’t step back into it again."

"I know." Fang Pingying was aware of Li Yuchun and the other’s thoughts. In fact, everyone in the family now disapproved of her further entanglement with Luo Zhiyong. Whenever this matter was brought up, they would surround her and list all she had suffered in the Luo Family.

She was tired of hearing it and immediately changed the topic, "Mom, Hong Lan’s engagement is tomorrow; I’m going to take Yu’er with me. The shop will be closed for one day. You watch over Ruirui and Yaoyao at home for me. I suppose I’ll stay overnight there before I come back."

"Stay overnight?" Li Yuchun was very surprised, "Is Luo Zhiyong going?"

"No."

Li Yuchun finally relaxed a bit, but when it came to Ruirui and Yaoyao, she was worried, "Can I take care of Ruirui and Yaoyao? At night they only need you and Hong Lan."

While they were talking, Luo Honglan came over to check if Ruirui and Yaoyao had fallen asleep. She quickly said, "Sister-in-law, Chen Jie said to bring Ruirui and Yaoyao along. It’s their family’s custom, saying it’s auspicious to have children attend engagements, especially since our Ruirui and Yaoyao are twins. If we bring them along, their family will definitely be pleased. I was originally going to tell you, but then something came up this afternoon and I forgot."

Fang Pingying hesitated upon hearing this, "Taking them along means a lot of extra hassle."

Luo Honglan dismissed the concern, "It’s fine, there are so many people to watch over them."

Once Li Yuchun heard this, she said, "Then you guys take them with you. I’ll be worried at night anyway since I can’t watch them all the time, and besides, Ruirui and the others haven’t really been on a long trip before. It’ll be good for them to go out and have some fun."

Fang Pingying thought about it and agreed, the two little ones had grown up so much and hadn’t really been out much.

And since either she would be looking after them at night or they would sleep with Hong Lan, she also worried there’d be no one to take care of them.

With Luo Honglan saying so, Fang Pingying decided to bring the two over. She went back to her room to pack the things they would need for tomorrow and tidied up the room before going to bed.

The next morning, while Fang Pingying was still in bed, she heard knocking at the door. Just as she was about to get up to open it, she heard Luo Honglan and Chen Jie talking outside.

Fang Pingying knew Chen Jie had come to pick them up, so she got out of bed, tidied up her clothes, and went over to wake the two little ones in their small bed.

The little ones usually wouldn’t be awake at this hour, but they were woken up by Fang Pingying.

Ruirui had a good temper; he opened his eyes, looked confused at his mother for a moment, then smiled and snuggled into Fang Pingying’s arms.

Yaoyao was grumpy when waking up. After being woken by Fang Pingying, she irritably opened her eyes, gave Fang Pingying a look, pouted her lips, and turned over to go back to sleep.

Fang Pingying, while smiling and dressing Ruirui, teasingly said to Yaoyao, "Yaoyao, if you don’t get up, we’ll leave you here alone at home today, no one will care for you."

The moment Yaoyao heard that, she immediately opened her eyes, kicked her chubby little legs, and cried out, "No..."

Seeing this, Fang Pingying quickly dressed Ruirui, then reached out to pick up Yaoyao, "Hurry up and get up, today we’re going to ride to your aunt’s house, lots of people are going, it’s going to be lively."

Yaoyao yawned, rubbed her eyes, and actually sat up.

She sat on the bed pondering, then suddenly asked aloud, "Where’s daddy?"

Fang Pingying was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Daddy’s busy, he’s not going."

The moment Yaoyao heard that, she frantically kicked her legs on the bed, crying out loud, "I want daddy, daddy’s going."

Yaoyao was quick-tempered, and Fang Pingying disliked it most when the little one threw a tantrum; her smile faded, and she looked seriously at Yaoyao, "Daddy is not going."

"Wah..." Yaoyao seemed to think Fang Pingying was getting angry, so she lay back on the bed and started crying loudly, while still calling out, "Daddy, daddy."

Fang Pingying pressed her lips together, about to reprimand the little one, when suddenly the door opened, and Luo Zhiyong, who shouldn’t have been there, walked in anxiously, asking, "What’s wrong, what’s wrong?"

"Daddy!" The little one, upon seeing Luo Zhiyong, immediately turned tears into laughter, reaching out her chubby little arms for a hug.

Luo Zhiyong held Yaoyao in his arms and soothed her for a while.

After Yaoyao stopped crying, Fang Pingying handed the clothes to Luo Zhiyong to dress Yaoyao, and asked him in a low voice, "How did you get here?"

"I came to check on how your preparations were going," Luo Zhiyong saw Fang Pingying looking at him with disbelief, so he decided to explain clearly, "Originally, Hong Lan planned to keep it from you and wanted us to go together, but I figured hiding it wasn’t right, I thought I still wouldn’t go, so I came over to see how everything was being handled."
