"Since that’s the case, just forget it. But Xiao Xiao, since you call me sister, I’m on your side. If that brat Lin Junyang dares to bully you, just let me know, and I’ll help you deal with him."

Xiao Xiao quickly nodded.

Hahaha, I never knew that Sister Ruonan had such a warm heart.

It’s no wonder, given that their families are from the Guard Team, how could they not be upright?

Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but scream in her heart, Lin Junyang, brace yourself! She’s kind of looking forward to seeing his expression when he sees her at his house.

Three SUVs grandly drove into the Lin Family’s old house, and Lin Weidong stood up when he saw the cars pulling into the backyard.

"Do you think Nan will bring that girl back?"

Jiang Xinru looked nervous, tidying up her clothes, "Is this outfit okay? Is there anything inappropriate?"

Lin Weidong gave her a quick glance and looked out the window, "We should just keep it casual, or else it might make them uncomfortable."

"I want to be casual too, which is why I’m not wearing the guard uniform. Our whole family is made up of guards, and we’re already used to seeing each other in uniform. But that girl is from an ordinary family; it’s no wonder she’d feel constrained seeing us all stiff like this," Jiang Xinru complained.

Lin Weidong looked down at his own general’s uniform and suddenly felt awkward, "Maybe I should change my clothes too?"

"What are you two whispering about over there?" Old Mr. Lin, who was resting with his eyes closed on the sofa, opened his eyes with a look of disdain, "I tell you, you don’t all have to come back. With this old man here at home, aren’t you reassured? Crowding the house won’t scare the girl away, that would be unlikely."

"Dad, I’m just thinking it’s rude if we have guests at home and there’s no woman to attend to them," Jiang Xinru said.

"Right, when there are guests and the hosts aren’t home, it’s quite rude," Lin Weidong agreed earnestly.

"Rude? As if I don’t know what you’re all up to? Let’s say this first, Nan is about to get married soon, so our focus should be on Junyang next. I never liked that Xie Family girl, all that stuff about being well-matched with good family backgrounds. She herself comes from a Guard Team family yet looks down on fellow guards. Just for that, she’s not fit to enter our Lin family. I, Old Man Lin, don’t care about being well-matched; I was a farmer’s son myself back then. As long as the girl has a good character and likes our Junyang, I’ll agree."

"Yes, yes, yes, although Junyang is now a major and a deputy leader of the Special Training Team, with his single-minded nature, if there’s a girl who likes him, I’d already burn incense in gratitude, and I certainly wouldn’t mind her family background," Lin Weidong quickly expressed.

Back then, Lin Junyang and Xie Yuting were paired up by him and his brothers, thinking their families were well-matched and, as children of the Guard Team, they could better fulfill the duties of a responsible guard’s spouse.

Unexpectedly, in the end, it was the other side that looked down on the guard background, leading to the breakup, leaving a thorn in his son’s heart.

His son has been stationed with the Guard Team in the south and refuses to return to Imperial City. As his father, Lin Weidong certainly knows why, and unless that thorn is removed, he can forget about having grandchildren.

"Yes, Dad, don’t worry, we’ll treat that girl well. According to Ruonan, even though Junyang isn’t with the girl, he cares about her a lot. This is the first time he’s shown interest in a girl since that incident. But with these two kids’ single-minded nature, who knows when he’ll finally get a clue." Jiang Xinru sighed and couldn’t help but glance at Lin Weidong.
