Li Yue this time not only didn't cower but also mustered the courage to reason with He Nan, "Bro Nan, we might be close, but we are brothers! Don't have any absurd ideas, I'm the only son in my family, and so are you. We both carry the heavy duty of continuing the family line."
"Say one more word and see what happens," He Nan warned, his tone full of caution.
Li Yue, hearing this, quickly closed his mouth and silently increased the distance between them once more.
In the kitchen, Xiu Min didn't bring up the matter again either, and treated Shen Mianmian just like before, as if nothing had happened.
Shen Mianmian wanted to speak about it several times but didn't know how to begin.
Just when she finally mustered the courage to say something, Xiu Min spoke up, her words full of significance, "Mianmian, you're nineteen this year, and it's the age to be in a relationship. He Nan is a good kid, and if you're with him, I'd be at ease."
