Chapter 1146 [Bonus chapter] Will Be Okay
“That’s what I thought,” said Raelle.
“I don’t want custody but I do want Justin to know that I’m his father. I can’t let him grow up without a father anymore. I have seen his dependence on me and you must have noticed it too. It’s because he lacks a father figure in his life. I don’t want him to miss out on anything in his life.”
Raelle nodded her head as she listened to him attentively.
“However, I’m not sure how to do it. Because it’s a fact that Tang Hebe is now Justin’s legal guardian. We all decided that we’ll first talk to her about this. It’s not right to keep her in the dark. That’s not even our family’s style. We don’t do sneaky things. And since we are upright people, it’s only right to let Tang Hebe know everything that we have learned until now.”
Raelle agreed with this wholeheartedly. No matter what relationship she had with Tang Hebe, she didn’t want to take away the light of her life. Besides, being honest was just in her blood and it was the same for the whole family. That’s why they all decided collectively that it was better to tell Tang Hebe everything honestly than hide anything from her.
Hiding won’t do them any good. 𝑜𝑣𝒍𝐞xt.𝗇𝓔t
“I understand that,” said Raelle. “However, I still don’t understand why you’re here, looking for me. You can’t possibly be here just to share the decision of the family with me just to make me feel like a part of the family, right?”
“Of course, not,” replied Xiang Weimin. “I was hoping you could go with me.”
“To Tang Hebe?”
“Yes,” he nodded.
“Why? Do you think I’m easy to talk to?”
“No,” he shook his head. “There are several reasons for this decision. Firstly, you are the person who is most familiar with Tang Hebe.”
“You do know how she and I are related, right?”
“I know,” he said. “However, I also know that you still have a fairly good relationship with Tang Hebe. You’re also very reasonable and there is no such thing as jealousy between you two. I also think, Miss Tang would be willing to listen to you a lot more. If I rashly went to tell her anything, her first thought would be that I’m trying to snatch her son which isn’t my intention and I don’t wanna scare her too. What if she started hiding after the scare?”
“True, you can be very scary.”
“Not more than you,” he pointed out.
“What’s the second reason?” she asked patiently.
“I’m not good at talking so I won’t be able to explain everything clearly to her and might make matters worse. However, you have always been very good with words.”
“I agree with this one! I don’t trust your eloquence either.”
“Thanks, sister!”
“You’re most welcome, brother!”
Xiang Weimin shook his head, “So, do you agree?”
“Since the whole family agreed, who am I to disagree here?” she asked. “Okay, I’ll do this.”
“Thank you!”
“Not for you,” added Raelle. “I’m doing it for Justin.”
Xiang Weimin smiled at that, “Then my son is very lucky to have such a considerate aunt.”
“Well, I was raised by Yanyan,” Raelle reminded him. “Have you found a better aunt than her over the years?”
“No way,” answered Xiang Weimin truthfully. “No one can be better than our aunt Chenyan. So, of course, our Raelle who learned from aunt Chenyan can be only better than her and not worse.”
“I suddenly am doubting if your eloquence is really questionable or you’re pretending to be a pig to eat tigers.”
“What do you think?” he asked in return.
“It doesn’t matter,” she responded. “No pig can eat the tigers of my family.”
Xiang Weimin laughed lightheartedly at that. Once she agreed to go with him, he felt like everything was okay now. He didn’t have to think so much.
“Let’s go then.”
“What’s the hurry?” asked Raelle. “Have you eaten? No, have you even taken a shower this morning?”
Xiang Weimin opened his mouth but didn’t answer.
“Go and take a shower. Then come down for breakfast first. First you need to eat before getting the energy to face the day. Also, groom yourself properly. You look scarier with this disheveled look. I’m telling you, Tang Hebe has a weak heart. So, present your nicest side in front of her. Lower your voice and talk gently. We are not in the barracks. There is no need to look so serious.”
“I didn’t wanna say it but sister, you have the worst expression in our family.”
“So what? I’m also that much more beautiful than the rest of the family,” she didn’t even blink as she complimented herself to the heaven. “Everything is overlooked once a person is beautiful.”
“I so wanna disagree but I can’t,” muttered Xiang Weimin to himself. Indeed, it was Raelle’s beautiful face that allowed people to overlook her blank expressions. How could he question the authenticity of her words? “But shouldn’t we hurry up? What if she left while I’m running around?”
“So what?” asked Raelle. “Where can she run? At most, she’d go home? It’s not like I don’t know where she lives. Besides, isn’t it better to visit her home? Don’t rush and don’t be so forceful. I still have something to figure out. After I am done with that, I’ll take you to her. Also, with these heavy dark circles, I’m definitely not taking to talk with her. So, you better eat something and take a rest properly before thinking about anything else.”
Xiang Weimin was suddenly hit with the fact that he was facing the toughest nut of their family right now. He couldn’t have his way in front of Raelle. Only Raelle’s way would work here and he should just be obedient and follow her lead or else, it won’t end well with him.
Okay, fine! He agreed that there shouldn’t be so much rush.
He already knew about his son. Now, there was no point in being so impatient. Patience is a virtue. He should keep calm and just follow Raelle. Everything will be okay.
