After dinner, Xu Weiran wanted to take Sheng Ning'an home.
But Sheng Ning'an refused!
"You stay and keep Uncle and Auntie company a bit longer, I can drive myself back." If he had to drive her back and then return, it would mean driving with one hand since he was injured. Sheng Ning'an didn't feel eased about that.
"Then call me once you get home."
"Sure!"
When Xu Weiran got back home, Mother Xu looked at him with disdain: "Why didn't you take An'an home?"
"How come you only care about that girl? Your son has a fractured hand, and you don't care at all?" He didn't know how An'an had caught his mother's fancy. Anyone unaware would think An'an was her own daughter.
Mother Xu didn't mince her words as she let loose on Xu Weiran: "Aren't you doing just fine? Besides, An'an told us that you merely have a minor fracture, and in a few days you can get the cast off. Aren't I just creating opportunities for you? If not for us, would your relationship have progressed this smoothly?"
