Chapter 168 : Chapter 168 . Honesty
Zhuang Xian’s eyes darkened, and she asked in a deep voice, “Senior brother, do you think they can accept me, who is full of secrets? I’m afraid they’ll be disgusted with me and think I’m a liar.”
Ever since Zhuang Xian had come to City H, she had no friends by her side whom she could confide in and whom she didn’t have to be on guard against. With Yan Zuo around today, she had a decent confidant.
Seeing that Zhuang Xian had started the car, Yan Zuo turned around to look at her. Her expression was a little calm, and Yan Zuo knew his junior was unhappy.
He was silent for a while, then leaned back in his seat and relaxed, “You care too much about them; that’s why you’re so worried about your gains and losses. You have never been honest with them, so how do you know if they can accept it? My suggestion is that you should have more confidence in yourself and them. Love is the bravest thing in the world. They’re the family that you’ve insisted on choosing. You should believe in them, and you should also believe in yourself.”
magic Zhuang Xian listened attentively to Yan Zuo’s words and suddenly felt relieved. She looked straight ahead and smiled. “I understand. Thank you, senior.”
On this side, Zhuang Xian and Yan Zuo were chatting. On the other side, in the front yard of the Zhuang family, Lin En was sitting on a bench under the streetlamp, waiting for her with a heavy heart.
When Zhuang Xian saw Lin En under the streetlight, she was not surprised. She knew that her mother would have a good chat with her tonight.
“It’s so cold outside at night. Mom, why didn’t you wait at home? What if the wind blows?” Zhuang Xian walked over to Lin En and asked with concern.
Lin En raised her head to look at her with a gentle smile. The warm yellow light shone on her face, making it look like it was coated with a layer of holy Halo. Lin En patted the seat beside her and gestured for Zhuang Xian to sit down.
I wanted to call you during dinner just now, but on second thought, I felt that I shouldn’t disturb your gathering with your friends. Seeing Zhuang Xian sit beside her, Lin En held her hand and chuckled as she continued.
“In the past, your three brothers also made me angry! Especially your third brother; he’s been willful since he was young. Once he’s determined to do something, even nine horses can’t pull him back! You’re mom’s only daughter, and you grew up in an orphanage. It’s normal for you to have some secrets you can’t tell others. I don’t mean to force you to be honest with us! I’m just worried that I don’t know you well enough and will do something that will make you sad. Do you understand?”
Lin En’s eyes glistened with tears. She did not know if it was because of the cold night wind, but she felt like crying.
How could Zhuang Xian not understand Lin En’s worries? she held Lin En’s fingers tightly and smiled, “I understand, Mom. I know you love me. I …”
She seemed to have made a lot of determination and courage. She looked at Lin En, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes full of dependence and belief. She trusted her family. “I know how to massage and treat people because I had a powerful master two years ago. I learned a lot from him! If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll arrange for you two to meet.
I’m racing because I like this extreme sport. Sometimes, I will use it to vent my emotions. I have a small car team in City H, and they participate in some international races from time to time! I’ll still …”
Zhuang Xian’s statement was incoherent, and Lin En felt a little distressed. She interrupted Zhuang Xian’s continued statement and said with a bit of blame, “Are these the things you’ve been hiding from us?”
Zhuang Xian was taken aback, and she looked at Lin En with a dazed expression.
Lin En found her expression extremely adorable. She reached out and pinched her little face, smiling. “What’s there to hide? Are you afraid that Mom or the other family members will be jealous of you?”
Lin En said in a reproachful manner. Looking at Zhuang Xian’s cute, dazed expression, she sighed.
