Chapter 490: Nothing Warms the Heart Like Fireworks
"Mom, Dad, I’m back!"
When Lin Fan parked the car and took the seafood out of the trunk, his parents were already standing at the door, smiling with relief.
"Just come back, why buy groceries? There’s still so much in the fridge. We can’t finish it all ourselves. Why don’t you take some back when you leave? Your mom and I found a fallow piece of land and planted some vegetables. In a few days, we’ll have plenty of farm produce. You can take some back for your colleagues at work then."
His father, whose cast had been removed, seemed to have fewer wrinkles, all because he was happy; his mother promptly took the seafood from him.
"I’ve been so busy these days. I haven’t had time to come back to the unit, so you guys might as well keep it and eat it."
Lin Fan took out a pack of Hua Zi cigarettes and handed one to his father, but he didn’t accept it and instead pulled out a pack of cheap Red Mei cigarettes from his pocket: "We’re all family here, save the good cigarettes for when you go out, I have my own, I’m used to this brand."
"Dad, just smoke it, don’t make a fuss. I have more in the car. I’ll bring you two cartons later."
Lin Fan snatched the Red Mei away, forcefully gave the Hua Zi to him, and lit it for him. Seeing his father cherish the cigarette, Lin Fan felt a pang of pain.
