Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 354 - Chapter 354 Chapter 354 Sit Anywhere_1

Chapter 354: Chapter 354: Sit Anywhere_1 Chapter 354: Chapter 354: Sit Anywhere_1 In the principal’s office, Huo Linong pouring a cup of boiled water himself, gestured for Nan Fei to sit.

“Don’t be restrained, sit anywhere you like.”

“Thank you, Principal.”

“There’s no need for such formalities here, just call me Uncle Huo.”

Nan Fei thought about how her brother would need Huo Linong’s help to go to Imperial City, immediately revealing a sweet smile. “Thank you, Uncle Huo.”

“We are all family, no need to be formal! I apologize for today’s incident, don’t be sad. Study hard and get into a good university.” Huo Linong was already encouraging her like his daughter-in-law.

Having been someone’s daughter-in-law for over a decade in her previous life, Nan Fei had some understanding of Huo Linong. He never got involved in her and Huo Beijiang’s affairs, nor did he meddle excessively like Yuan Xueshan.

As an elder, he is quite reasonable.

But Nan Fei knew that Huo Linong didn’t like her as his daughter-in-law. He only accepted her because his son made that choice. But deep down, he had never accepted Nan Fei as family.

Though, she didn’t care in her previous life! She always thought about divorce, wishing to be as far away from the Huo Family as possible. She would only occasionally see Huo Linong, the family elder, during New Year celebrations.

Looking back on it now, it’s only natural that he didn’t accept her. Who would want a daughter-in-law, who was always thinking about divorcing their son?

Nan Fei sat in the chair, holding the glass cup, her thoughts drifting back to her previous life once again.

She shook her head, stopping herself from indulging in the past.

Those pains and sorrows were not worth reminiscing.

Huo Linong bent over to take a box out of the drawer and handed it to Nan Fei. “Here! This is for you.”

“What is this?”

“Beijiang had it sent back here. He specifically mentioned that it was for you, but we didn’t open it.” Huo Linong spoke with a touch of sourness. His son had rarely returned home since leaving.

All these years, he hadn’t thought about sending his old father a gift. But now, his daughter-in-law hadn’t even officially entered the family yet, and he was already pampering her!

Nan Fei was taken aback, her hand holding the box feeling like it was burning.

“This…why did he think of sending me something?” Nan Fei didn’t even know what she was saying, and wanted to slap herself after speaking.

Why was she saying these things in front of Huo Linong!

“Uncle Huo, do you know when your classmate, Professor Jin Lifu, is coming back?” She was anxious to send Jiang Yang to Imperial City. Now she had enough money, but Professor Lifu was always unavailable.

“I’ve contacted him too! My old classmate went abroad for research and probably won’t return for about half a year.” Huo Linong pondered for a moment before asking, “How is your brother doing now?”

“Because he’s been held back so many times, no school will accept him. We’re worried about leaving him alone at home as we all have to attend school.”

Nan Fei spoke with distress, “Actually, I have already prepared the money to go to Imperial City, and my parents are very much in favor. This opportunity is the most needed for our whole family.”

Nan Fei didn’t mention Huo Beijiang’s words, she dared not hope that Jiang Yang could be accepted as a student. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. For the whole family, they don’t need her brother to be a genius or smart.

As long as he can grow up like a normal person and be healthy, that would be enough.

“I understand how you feel.” Huo Linong thought of Jiang Yang’s performance the last time he played chess, and his heart warmed. As an educator, he noticed that the boy was definitely not stupid on their first meeting.

PS: Goodnight, kisses.
