him Minister Lin and Madam Lin’s approval once again.

Indeed, they had not made the wrong choice when they had chosen him as their son-in-law.
Their daughter was truly blessed to be able to marry him.

Minister Lin was actually not a great drinker, but that did not stop him from enjoying wine like everyone else—though he soon grew tipsy after a few cups.

After dinner, he made up an excuse saying that he had work to do in the study and went to bed.


Carrying her son in her arms, Madam Lin asked Long Xuan, “Will you be staying here tonight or going back?”

Long Xuan smiled at Lin Qingyuan.
“I’m fine with anything.
I’ll leave the decision to Yuan’er.”

Goosebumps broke out all over Lin Qingyuan’s body when she heard him call her Yuan’er.

Before her mother could look at her, she jumped in, “I haven’t come back in a long time, so I’m definitely going to stay here tonight.
If you have something else to do, you can go back now, or it’ll be inconvenient to travel when it gets dark later.”

To her dismay, Long Xuan said, “I don’t have anything else to do.
Since you want to stay here, I’ll stay with you.”

Madam Lin was delighted to hear this.
“That’s wonderful.”

After chatting for a while more, Madam Lin noticed that her son was getting sleepy and said to the other two, “It’s getting late—you should get to bed soon.
Yuan’er, take Long Xuan to your room.”

Despite her reluctance, Lin Qingyuan could not refuse her mother, so she said to Long Xuan, “Let’s go.”


She was weary with frustration as she trudged back to her room.

She had thought that she could get some rest here in her natal home—until this man showed up like a pesky insect.

She plucked a leaf and imagined that it was Long Xuan’s face as she tore it to shreds.

Just then, she heard Long Xuan clear his throat.

She turned and glanced at him, only to find that his face was slightly red.
Thinking that he was planning to try something funny again, she ignored him.

However, Long Xuan cleared his throat again.

Lin Qingyuan was about to snap at him impatiently when he suddenly pinned her against a nearby tree, lowered his head, and kissed her.
