Chapter 2238 - 642: Going Home, The Hungry Man_5
"Noisy," Gu Yelin coldly tossed out two words, then turned around to help An Yiqing put on her shoes.
"Second Brother, you’re at it again!" An Yiqing switched to protective spouse mode, glaring at An Zhiyan.
Sister-loving An Zhiyan immediately wilted, looking at An Yiqing pitifully, as if feeling wronged.
She helplessly shook her head, wondering how she’d ever seen her Second Brother as anything like Instructor Iceberg.
Once ready, the three of them headed downstairs. It was busy downstairs, with the An Family bustling around making dinner.
"Niuniu’s awake?" An Zhihang, who was picking vegetables, looked up to see An Yiqing, a delighted smile appearing on his elegant and handsome face. He put down the vegetables, wiped his hands simply, and stood up to come over.
However, before he could reach An Yiqing, a pink figure swooped like the wind and An Yiqing was snatched away.
"Boo hoo, Qingqing, I’ve missed you so much! You’ve been gone for two months, and I’ve only seen you on TV. You’re heartless, leaving me in the dorm every day to get bullied by Ruan Xue. Are you abandoning me?!" Gu Tingting, like an octopus, clung to An Yiqing, crying and sniffling, looking very aggrieved.
An Yiqing hugged Gu Tingting, amused, coaxing and persuading her. At the same time, she didn’t forget to signal An Zhihang, asking, "Your wife, aren’t you going to do something?"
An Zhihang shrugged, indicating there’s nothing he could do.
Rolling her eyes exaggeratedly, An Yiqing internally scoffed at him, then looked pitifully at Gu Yelin.
The protective husband received the cue, stretched out his big hand, grabbed Gu Tingting by the back of her collar, and tossed her into An Zhihang’s arms.
"Who—Third Brother? Heh heh, heh heh!" Gu Tingting was about to rage but shrank back pathetically upon seeing Gu Yelin, hiding behind An Zhihang.
An Zhihang looked at his quirky wife with a mix of amusement and helplessness, wondering why this little girl was so afraid of Lao San.
After some commotion, An Yiqing handed out gifts she’d brought back to An Zhihang and Gu Tingting, leaving them pleasantly surprised. Then Old Lady An opened the kitchen door, calling everyone to eat.
The whole family gathered enthusiastically at the dining table. The An Family never held the traditional "silence during meals" rule; instead, they listened with lively interest as An Yiqing shared amusing stories from Flower Island and her takeover of Prosperous Real Estate.
An Yiqing didn’t hesitate to choose less thrilling parts to narrate in detail, earning nods of admiration from the business-minded An Zhihang for her tactics. An Zisheng wore an expression of pride — this was his daughter!
Old Master An and Ye Chenghong, like old friends, toasted each other, smiling as they listened to the younger generation discuss Flower Island matters.
"Brother An, this generation of young people is incredible, far better than us back then," Ye Chenghong remarked with a smile, recalling his younger days upon meeting Sun Peiying at Flower Island.
Old Master An nodded, "A new generation replaces the old, as waves push forward on the Yangtze River. I hope these young ones can withstand all challenges."
Ye Chenghong’s drinking paused suddenly, remembering An Yiqing’s words on Flower Island: Chosen One, Soul Return to Void. Hopefully, they can pass safely through.
Dinner was lively, almost like New Year’s. After eating, the whole family tidied up the dining table and returned to the living room to continue chatting.
Until around ten at night, An Yiqing, unwilling for the three elders to stay up too late, finally suggested leaving. Before departing, Gu Tingting clung to An Yiqing’s hand, reluctant.
"Qingqing, rest for a couple of days, and then Xiao Xue and I will visit you to hang out."
An Yiqing nodded with a smile, "Sure, come find me whenever you want to have fun. I’m available these days."
Gu Tingting’s eyes lit up, "Really?! Can I come to the villa tomorrow to play?"
Before An Yiqing could reply, a cold voice interjected.
"No."
Joking aside, if she came, Master Gu wouldn’t stand a chance at having any.
Gu Tingting instantly deflated, casting a poignant glance at An Yiqing before leaving step by step, with An Zhihang.
"Look how you scared Tingting, be careful she doesn’t go complain to Grandpa," joked An Yiqing, watching the cold-faced Gu Yelin.
"Even if you gave her ten guts, she wouldn’t dare," Gu Yelin hugged An Yiqing’s waist, his expression softening, "If she disrupts the new couple’s private time, Grandpa would scold her, if nothing else."
An Yiqing was stunned, then retorted with a "tsk" sound, glaring at him like a tigress.
