Free Web NovelChapter 1558: Chapter 463: Self-Slander
"Come, sit, Xiao Huan..."
Seeing only Yan Huan and not An Le, Mrs. An quickly reacted, hurriedly inviting Yan Huan inside.
Yan Huan wasn’t shy either, exchanging pleasantries while setting down the gifts he brought, followed by some polite refusal that can be skipped over.
Mrs. An was always amiable when chatting with Yan Huan, but An Bang stood by, watching Yan Huan with vigilant eyes.
Feeling the gaze similar to the one from Zuo Jiangqin earlier, Yan Huan couldn’t help but sigh, confirming the dreadful suspicion in his heart.
"... So, Xiao Huan, what brings you to visit us today?"
After chatting for a while, Mrs. An finally hinted at the main topic hesitantly.
Hearing this, An Bang instinctively reached for a cigarette, but upon catching his wife’s glare, he sheepishly put it back.
"..."
Yan Huan actually came for two main reasons.
Firstly, he wanted to help An Le, whether it was the second child issue or the recent consideration of pursuing a career in comics.
The matter of the modifier couldn’t be meddled with by her parents before, but now that it’s gone, her parents need to be communicated with.
Since it had to be discussed sooner or later, why not come now?
Secondly, he wanted to verify whether someone passing a message to Zuo Jiangqin today was a coincidence.
But now it seems...
It wasn’t.
And if An Le’s parents really know about this, helping An Le will be even harder...
"Uncle, Auntie, actually, I wanted to talk to you about some issues An Le has been facing recently..."
"What happened to Lele?"
An Le’s mother immediately asked, and An Bang squinted his eyes, interrupting Yan Huan and his wife,
"Xiao Huan, it’s actually perfect timing that you’re here. I have something important to ask you as well, regarding you and An Le."
See, it was as expected.
Beside them, An Bang studied Yan Huan for a while, unable to contain himself anymore, he finally spoke.
Ignoring his wife’s reproachful look, An Bang’s expression was serious.
Yan Huan’s heart skipped a beat, but his facial expression remained unchanged,
"Uncle, go ahead."
"Previously, when we weren’t at home, was An Le with you?"
"..."
Hearing this, Yan Huan pondered for a moment.
Then, it seemed he made some kind of decision as he spoke,
"Yes."
Upon hearing these words, Mrs. An’s expression changed slightly, and An Bang sighed, rubbing his temples.
"Xiao Huan..."
"Don’t misunderstand, Xiao Huan, we’re not that kind of old-fashioned parents, we have no problem with normal dating."
Yan Huan nodded, but after saying this, An Bang changed his tone and asked in return,
"But we haven’t opened up to that extent... I mean, are you... Are you cheating on my little girl?!"
Yan Huan hesitated at this.
Feeling the atmosphere becoming a bit awkward, Mrs. An patted her belly, gave An Bang a reproachful look, and defended Yan Huan,
"Honey, Xiao Huan is someone we watched grow up, how could he be that kind of person? Don’t jump to conclusions, maybe those Golden Lion Group people are just talking nonsense, right, Xiao Huan?"
Feeling the trusting gaze from An Le’s mother, Yan Huan couldn’t help but show a hint of a guilty expression.
He opened his mouth, but before he could speak, An Bang shook his head, giving Yan Huan a once-over.
Then, he quietly explained to An Le’s mother,
"Darling, you don’t understand teenage boys at all! They can’t control themselves! So needy! You forgot, back when I was young, how many times a day? Until you begged for mercy..."
"Oh, Old An, you really are..."
"What I’m saying is, at his age, it’s easy to make mistakes. Our An Le can’t refuse people, what if... what if our An Le gets bullied?"
"That’s really something to worry about! An Le is so petite and delicate, while Xiao Huan is all towering and big, I’m afraid..."
Over there, An Le’s parents’ conversation was barely audible.
But with Yan Huan’s keen senses, he could easily make out what they were saying.
But...
So you’re saying...
An Le is being bullied by me?
Haha...
The smile on Yan Huan’s face was hard to maintain, his mind already recalling the fear of being dominated by the Anle Demon King.
Exactly how many more reproduction points are needed to counter An Le?
This might be an unsolvable problem, but at this moment, facing the parents’ suspicions, his eyes slightly glimmered as he nodded and said,
"Sorry, Uncle, Auntie..."
This tacit admission left both of them stunned.
An Le’s mother was so shocked she covered her mouth, while An Bang’s face darkened...
Then, his fists slowly clenched.
...
...
"Bang! Clang!"
"I... I’ll smash you, you brat from the orphanage! If you have the guts, don’t dodge!"
Five or six minutes later.
In the corridor of the nursing home, many nurses and elderly people were watching the scene, until the next second when the door opened and Yan Huan dodged and backed out.
Behind him, several bags of gifts he brought along were also tossed out.
Yan Huan raised an eyebrow, agilely avoiding those gifts, looking back into the room.
He saw inside the room, An Le’s mother was struggling to hold back the furious An Bang, while still managing to turn her head and speak to Yan Huan,
"You... you should leave first, Xiao Huan!"
Hearing this, seemingly worried about An Le’s mother’s pregnant condition, Yan Huan could only look apologetically in that direction, then turn and leave without looking back.
Inside the room, seeing Yan Huan leave, An Bang was still angrily wanting to chase after him, but behind him, An Le’s mother suddenly let out a gasp, which startled him into immediately turning back,
