Chapter 203: Chapter 203 - The Empathetic Mother
When she saw her daughter holding her husband’s hand when they came back, Su Xiuling gave Yun Zhibin a satisfied look .
“I’ll make breakfast, mom,” Yun Xiangxiang changed and went into the kitchen after telling her mother that .
Since Yun Xiangxiang’s parents’ arrival, Wang Yong had been waiting for Yun Xiangxiang to call him . When she didn’t, he came and rang the bell, only to find that Yun Xiangxiang had already started .
“Give me a hand, Brother Yong . Let’s make some Beijing specials for my parents,” Yun Xiangxiang spoke to avoid embarrassing Wang Yong .
Yun Xiangxiang stepped up her game with a pro gourmet by her side . A balanced, delicious breakfast was quickly prepared .
Yun Xiangxiang called Song Mian after breakfast . She told him her parents wanted to see him and asked him over for lunch .
Since her daughter was a public figure, Su Xiuling couldn’t buy groceries together with Yun Xiangxiang . To show sincerity, Yun Xiangxiang asked Wang Yong to take Yun Zhibin and Yun Lin out .
Su Xiuling started having a heart-to-heart session with Yun Xiangxiang after handing Yun Ting, who had his belly filled and diapers changed, to Song Qian and Coco . “I have nothing to do anyway, so I want to know how you two are getting along . What stage are you at now? What kind of a person is he, and his personality . We don’t want to be an inhospitable host .
“He’s a doctor . His family’s been in medicine for generations . He’s great at both Western and Chinese medicine…” Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t stop once she talked about Song Mian . Stars lit up in her eyes .
The sweet love was plain as day on her face as she regaled Su Xiuling with stories of her time together with Song Mian . She also confessed about meeting Song Mian’s father, a nice gentleman who adored her .
She only left Song Mian’s background out . She didn’t want her parents to look at him the wrong way . She hoped her parents would think nothing of it after they knew him .
Su Xiuling listened carefully, only asking occasionally . She could see her daughter caring about this man more than she thought . But listening to how they were getting along, Su Xiuling thought Song Mian was a decent kid .
Better than Yun Zhibin at least . He never served her all these years .
Aside from the time she was pregnant with Yun Xiangxiang and Yun Lin, Yun Zhibin never woke early to make breakfast for her!
She made a mental note on this, but she still clasped her daughter with a smile, “I can see he’s an excellent person who’s attentive, responsible, and capable . No wonder my daughter is captivated . ”
Nothing made Yun Xiangxiang happier than her parents acknowledging her beloved . She leaned on Su Xiuling’s shoulder like a little girl, “Nonsense! I captivated him first . He’s the one who came after me nonstop . ”
Su Xiuling chuckled . “Cheeky girl . I want my kids to be happy too . Your father and I can only be by your side for a fraction of your time . Your husband will be with you for the rest of it . ”
Su Xiuling caressed her daughter’s hair gently . She spoke affectionately and gently, “We will be happy for you if you meet someone who protects you and reciprocates your love . ”
“Mom, you’re the best mom in the world,” Yun Xiangxiang pecked Su Xiuling’s cheek .
“Don’t try to trick me,” Su Xiuling poked her daughter’s forehead . “I’m not against you dating . I’m not an overly conservative person . But you’re still a student, so I hope you’ll keep away from anything that will get in the way of that . ”
Yun Xiangxiang’s face turned scarlet, “Mom, we didn’t… I was drunk last night . Last time that happened, we almost… If he wanted to do something to me, he didn’t have to wait until yesterday . ”
Yun Xiangxiang was still embarrassed when she talked about this with her mother .
She forced herself on Song Mian first . A drunk person would let slip their insecurities and fear themselves .
Every second together with Song Mian had Yun Xiangxiang feeling she was dreaming . She was scared that everything was unreal, so she…
“It’s fine as long as you understand . Your father and I won’t get in your way,” Su Xiuling was open about it .
She didn’t request anything from Yun Xiangxiang, but Yun Xiangxiang still felt guilty .
“Mom . I love both him and myself . I never wanted to be an iron lady, but I will never give up on my career,” Yun Xiangxiang guaranteed seriously .
For Yun Xiangxiang, a woman without a career would be incomplete . Tending to both her career and family would be a difficult task . If they were to give up either one, there would be an unfillable void in her heart .
“Alright, our talk ends here . Don’t hide anything from us from now on . Talk to me in private if you don’t like your father’s explosive temper and traditionalism,” Su Xiuling guided her kindly .
Yun Xiangxiang nodded quickly, “I’ll tell you everything from now on, mom . You just know me so well . ”
Poor Yun Xiangxiang didn’t know that she had just fallen for her mother’s silver tongue . She talked her way to Yun Xiangxiang’s heart and clasped it just like that .
“Let’s go see Yun Ting . He knows a lot of words now . Calls for his sister every day,” Su Xiuling took her daughter to look for her son .
Yun Ting was blinking at Song Qian with his big, adorable eyes . Song Qian’s heart melted . She gave him a lollipop .
“I couldn’t help it, Aunt Su . He was looking at me with those puppy eyes . I couldn’t take it,” Song Qian explained quickly when she saw Su Xiuling . “Don’t worry, Aunt Su . My lollipop is custom made . No additives in there . It’s all natural plant sugar . ”
“It’s fine . With how he looks like now, nobody can resist those eyes,” Su Xiuling consoled Song Qian with a smile .
“My little brother is getting cuter . I love you so much,” Yun Xiangxiang hugged little Yun Ting .
“Sis sis,” Yun Ting stuck the lollipop he got from Song Qian on Yun Xiangxiang’s lips .
His eyes were beautiful . They were dark, clear, and big . He even had long eyelashes . He could melt someone with his unblinking gaze . Nobody could refuse his requests .
Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want Yun Ting, whose teeth were growing, to take any sugar . Even if Song Qian’s sugar was harmless . She followed her brother’s beckon and took the lollipop in her mouth .
“It’s sweet,” Yun Xiangxiang felt sweet to her bones .
Yun Ting kissed his sister’s face . He clapped his little hands together . “Sweet!”
