Chapter 114 Pretending to Be Lin Mubai’s Girlfriend (2)
So it turns out it’s a pretend girlfriend situation. An Nan felt a wave of disappointment in her heart once again, though she didn’t show it on her face at all. But deep down, she was still hesitant, as deceiving elders always feels wrong.
Lin Mubai was incredibly astute, and of course, he knew exactly what An Nan was hesitating about.
He continued speaking, persisting in his persuasion: "Nannan, don’t worry. When I have a girlfriend, I’ll immediately explain everything to my mom."
"Alright then." Little White had said so much, she couldn’t reasonably refuse any longer. This time, she decided to help a friend out.
Little did An Nan know that by agreeing, she was completely entrapping herself, or rather, falling into Lin Mubai’s trap, making it difficult to climb out from then on.
When Lin Mubai heard An Nan agree, a joyful expression instantly appeared on his face as he briefly explained: "Nannan, don’t be nervous. Let’s just act like we usually do. My family is great; they won’t make things difficult for you."
Not only will they not make things difficult, but they’ll likely treat you like a treasure.
The Lin Family has been passing down the family line with single descendants for generations, always without female children. His mom and dad used to want to have a daughter so badly. At one point, they decided that if he was born a boy, they’d have a little princess next. But unfortunately, his mom frightened his dad during his birth, prompting his dad to get a vasectomy swiftly the day after he was born, dashing the Nan family’s wish for a little princess.
Ever since then, his mom’s most often quoted words were: "I’ll definitely nurture my daughter-in-law into my daughter and spoil her well."
