Chapter 836 Emotional Pull

Tong Wenjie glanced helplessly at Fang Yifan, this glib-tongued son.

I really can't bring myself to get angry with him.

She thought for a moment, then spoke.

"Fang Yifan, wait a moment. What if your grandparents say something about Lei'er?"

"Remember to help him out of that situation, okay?"

After hearing this, Fang Yifan smiled, patted his chest confidently, and said with a grin: u

"Mom, don't worry, we're brothers who share a quarter blood!"

Seeing Fang Yifan's expression, Tong Wenjie smiled.

Then, he turned his head and glanced at Lin Leier, who was looking down and silent.

He seemed to be thinking about something and didn't say a word.

He paused briefly and waited for him.

"Lei'er, what's wrong? You haven't been talking much today?"

Lin Leier only came to his senses after hearing Fang Yifan's voice.

He scratched his head sheepishly, smiled, and said, "Cousin, you're having a meal with your grandparents. Would it be inappropriate for me to go?"

"Actually, I can stay at home by myself."

Fang Yifan's heart skipped a beat when he saw Lin Leier's expression.

My mother's worries are not unfounded.

His eyes darted around; he already had a solution in mind.

He frowned, then stared at Lin Leier and said, "Leier, what do you mean by that?"

"Today's gathering is a family meal together."

"Don't you consider us family?"

Fang Yifan's eyes were wide open when he spoke.

And he looked surprised and sad.

Lin Leier looked at Fang Yifan in front of him, his eyes filled with surprise.

He hadn't expected his cousin's reaction to be so strong.

But then I thought about how good my cousin was to me.

However, there is still a barrier between him and me.

If it happened to me, I might feel uncomfortable too.

Thinking of this, he turned his head and immediately apologized to Fang Yifan beside him.

"I'm sorry, cousin, it's my fault."

"I shouldn't have said that, let me explain!"

Fang Yifan's eyes, filled with grief, seemed to have turned red.

Indeed, he had been keeping his eyes wide open, and the wind blowing against his eyeballs made them ache, which naturally caused them to turn red.

After hearing Lin Leier's words, he couldn't help but curl up his lips, looking a little smug.

However, it quickly disappeared where Lin Leier wasn't paying attention.

Turning his head, he still wore a look of grief and indignation as he looked at Lin Leier and asked:

"Alright, now I'll ask you, what did you mean by what you just said?"

Lin Leier lowered his head, looking like he had done something wrong.

She opened her mouth, and said timidly, "Cousin, I shouldn't have said that."

"I should feel from the bottom of my heart that we are a family."

"Instead of just going through the motions."

Fang Yifan nodded in satisfaction after seeing Lin Leier's reaction.

He slightly concealed the pain on his face, nodded, and then tentatively asked:

"So tell me, do you still want to go back now?"

A hint of hesitation appeared on Lin Leier's face.

He had already figured out how his cousin's grandparents had treated him back then.

Although he lacks emotional intelligence, he's not stupid either.

It's just that I'm suppressing my inner emotions.

After all, now that his aunt had taken him in, he couldn't continue to cause her trouble.

Suddenly, his eyes flickered.

What are you thinking about?

My cousin is so good to me, why am I still overthinking things?

They have absolutely no conscience.

He clenched his fist slightly and gritted his teeth.

She raised her head and said to Fang Yifan in front of her, "Cousin, don't worry, I'll go back!"

At worst, I'll just get a few words of criticism.

When the time comes, just pretend to be stupid and you'll get away with it.

Fang Yifan had no idea what Lin Leier was thinking.

However, he nodded with some relief.

Then, she smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"That's good since you've figured it out!"

Tong Wenjie glanced at Fang Yifan briefly; she had already seen Lin Leier and Fang Yifan chatting.

Although I don't know what the two of them said.

However, Lin Leier looked much better.

Fang Yifan suddenly felt a chill down his back.

I looked up and saw my mom staring at me.

After realizing that he had spotted her, he even gave her a wink.

Fang Yifan turned around, smiled at Lin Leier, and said, "Leier, good luck!"

After speaking, he walked up to Tong Wenjie.

He glanced at her, a little nervously asking, "Mom, what's wrong?"

I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing that my mom is looking for me.

However, he had already walked over.

A smile appeared on Tong Wenjie's face, and she said to Fang Yifan:

"Fanfan, what did you say to Lei'er just now?"

After learning why his mother had come, Fang Yifan breathed a sigh of relief.

He grinned and smiled.

Then, he said to his mother, "I just asked Lei'er why he wasn't very enthusiastic!"

"Then, I gave him a little encouragement!"

"The matter has now been resolved."

Tong Wenjie's eyes lit up after hearing Fang Yifan's words.

Then, he glanced at Lin Leier.

After seeing his aunt looking at him, Lin Leier figured that his cousin must have told others what had just happened.

So my aunt was a little worried about me.

No, I can't let my aunt worry about me.

So he tried to put on a sunny smile and smiled at her.

Tong Wenjie withdrew her gaze, nodded at Fang Yifan with satisfaction, and then said with a smile, "Not bad, you rascal! (Ma Lihao)"

It seems this kid can indeed take good care of Lin Leier.

Fang Yifan raised an eyebrow and said smugly, "That's right, don't you know who I am?"

This time, Tong Wenjie didn't dampen her beloved son's enthusiasm.

She chuckled, then proudly declared, "Of course it's my precious son! Who else could it be!"

Just as the two were chatting, Fang Yuan, with a fawning smile on his face, came closer.

"Hey, what are you two talking about, mother and son?"

When Tong Wenjie saw Fang Yuan, she thought of his parents, so she felt very unhappy.

She rolled her eyes and said irritably, "What else could it be? I'm talking about what will happen when I see your parents later."

"How am I going to listen to those two lecturing me?!"

Fang Yuan gave an awkward laugh after hearing this.

Unexpectedly, his attempt to flatter the emperor backfired spectacularly.

He also knew that his mother and his wife didn't get along very well.
