Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 299 - Chapter 299 Chapter 299 Love to Sleep In _1

Chapter 299: Chapter 299 Love to Sleep In _1 Chapter 299: Chapter 299 Love to Sleep In _1 Yuan Xueshan couldn’t stand anyone talk ill of her son, “Mom! Bei Jiang just finds getting up early so tough, which is why he likes to sleep in.”

“Don’t make excuses for him – he was the same back in school.”

“He had to be at school by seven thirty in the mornings. It was tough too.”

Zhou Yongxian: “…”

So, had her daughter-in-law shifted all of her attention from Jinlan to her son?

“That rascal, tell him to get up this instant.”

Zhou Yongxian thought to herself, she shouldn’t spoil this little devil too much. She shouted upstairs at the staircase, “Bei Jiang, Nan Fei is here, aren’t you going to get up?”

Almost as soon as she had finished her sentence, there was a flurry of sounds from upstairs. Huo Beijiang stormed in like a gust of wind. His handsome face was still laced with the laziness of a recent nap.

He was only wearing his high school basketball uniform, which flopped and twisted around him in a way that made one want to go and straighten it out for him.

It was obviously something he had thrown on when he got up.

“Where’s Nan Fei?” His voice was low, although his face was expressionless, his sparkling eyes betrayed his true intentions.

His reaction was swift. As soon as he had finished his question, he swept a sharp gaze around the room, immediately realizing he had been tricked.

His little wife was shy and had a thin skin. She would be too embarrassed to come and find him!

With this thought, he turned around to go back upstairs without a second glance, leaving Zhou Yongxian so angry she wanted to walk over and pinch his ears.

But unfortunate this tall devil was too tall for her. She could only huff angrily, “What’s the time now and you’re still not getting up for breakfast?”

As he ascended the stairs, Huo Beijiang replied, “I’m not eating, I am going back to sleep.”

“What? You still want to sleep? Can’t your young body take it?”

Upon hearing this, Huo Beijiang stopped. He tilted his body and leaned against the railings of the staircase. Half-closing his eyes, he responded in his playful yet articulate manner, “Granny, have you ever seen anyone more outstanding and healthier than me when you were young? I didn’t think so.”

Zhou Yongxian covered her eyes. This bastard was truly insufferable. There was just no one to put him in his place!

He was utterly disrespectful, even towards his own grandmother.

No sense of seriousness at all.

“Hmph! So being good looking is very important, huh? Why don’t you go show off your amazing qualities all the way up to the sky then?” Zhou Yongxian huffed angrily, her spirited and lively expression a stark contrast to her attitude just a while ago.

She looked like a cheerful old woman.

Huo Linong gently laid down the newspaper he was reading, his eyes thoughtful.

No wonder his son looked down upon him, it seemed he’d have to learn a thing or two from him.

“Granny, I frequently touch the sky, haven’t you heard? I have piloting experience.” Huo Beijiang was standing with one hand across his chest, stroking his chin with the other. He gave off an unabashed, rogue-ish impression, yet strangely managed to appear professional.

“Enough, let’s see you try to impress Nan Fei. Hurry up and get downstairs to eat breakfast. I won’t care if you go back to sleep afterwards.”

“Oh! Wait just a minute!” Huo Beijiang responded, then went back to his room to wash up and change his clothes.

Yuan Xueshan was setting the table when she heard Nan Fei’s name, and she went into a trance, a complicated look on her face.

“Mom.” Once his son had left, Huo Linong added, “Bei Jiang has been taking care of Nan Fei at the hospital these last few days, and hasn’t had much sleep. He isn’t lazy.”

Zhou Yongxian’s face flashed with embarrassment, she muttered, “Is… Is that so?”

Huo Linong nodded resolutely, “Exactly. He cares so much for his wife. He wouldn’t abandon a patient just to grab some sleep. Not him.”

“So, it was I who misunderstood him?”

“Yes. And, moreover, he never overslept when he was a kid either. He would get up before dawn for training, and by the time you got up, he would have finished training.”

So, the person who loved to sleep in the most in the house was actually the old lady herself.

“Ahahaha… I’m getting old, my memory isn’t as good as it used to be, neither are my legs.”

Zhou Yongxian laughed it off, “Let’s eat, hurry up and have breakfast. I’m starving. Xue Shan, you shouldn’t stand either, let’s eat and not wait for that rascal.”
