Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1786 The Sun Shines Like Me 15

At night, Ma Nianyuan lay on the sofa chatting with Lin Yusen. Lin Yusen complained that he almost encountered a common traditional activity in his hometown. Ma Nianyuan cleared her mind and asked directly what kind of traditional activity it was.

Lin Yusen's cunning answer was that it involved randomly selecting a single person and conducting various matching activities.

Ma Nianyuan couldn't help but laugh out loud at Lin Yusen's description. Qian Fangping returned after her massage and saw the scene. She couldn't help but ask with a smile, "What did your Dr. Lin say? Why are you laughing so happily?"

Ma Nianyuan replied with a smile, "He complained that even though he has a girlfriend, he was almost set up on a blind date by his elders."

Qian Fangping didn't take Ma Nianyuan's side, and said reproachfully, "Then your Dr. Lin should complain to you a bit. A girlfriend is someone you usually cherish and protect, but when it comes to a crucial moment, isn't she someone you have to use?"

"If I didn't know you were dating Dr. Lin, I'd probably be urging you to meet the sons of my big spenders—"

Ma Nianyuan jumped up from the sofa and protested, "Mom—"

"I haven't even graduated yet, and you're already planning to arrange blind dates for me?!"

Qian Fangping sat closer and tried to soothe her daughter, who was about to explode, with a half-hearted attempt. "Oh, that's how all elders are. Seeing that you kids are doing well in your careers, of course we can't help but worry about family matters."

"Besides, your mother is so shrewd, would I ever wrong you?"

Qian Fangping only came over to say a few words, and had no intention of interfering with her daughter's sweet time with her boyfriend, so she quickly made an excuse and left.

Ma Nianyuan felt that Lin Yusen should know about this little incident, but she didn't expect that Lin Yusen would send her a picture. The familiar snow scene in the picture was clearly the view outside her luxury suite.

Amidst the snow, lamplight, and moonlight, Lin Yusen truly possessed a third kind of breathtaking beauty. Seeing Lin Yusen's figure drawing ever closer, Ma Nianyuan quickly threw on a coat and rushed out, startling Qian Fangping. Qian Fangping cautiously craned her neck to look out the window, and after confirming it was indeed Lin Yusen, she couldn't help but reveal a loving smile.

Seeing Ma Nianyuan run out with just a coat on, Lin Yusen was initially pleased, but then immediately realized he hadn't thought things through. He quickly ran a few steps to block her at the door, saying with a guilty look, "I shouldn't have run over like that, making you freeze..."

Ma Nianyuan just smiled and said, "Look, if I put on a hat and gloves, I'll be fully armed. Are you worried I'll get cold?"

"Besides, you want to see me quickly, but don't you think I also want to see you quickly?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yusen's heart softened completely, and he hugged Ma Nianyuan tightly, wishing that they could stay like this forever...

But his concern for Ma Nianyuan's health outweighed their time together. He only hugged her briefly before reluctantly letting go, urging her to go back inside: "Nianyuan, go back now. We'll see each other at the ski resort tomorrow..."

Looking into Lin Yusen's eyes, which were brighter than the stars, Ma Nianyuan tiptoed and gently kissed him on the lips, smiling as she said, "This is your reward for the surprise just now."

Lin Yusen laughed so hard his back teeth were showing. He rubbed Ma Nianyuan's hand for a while, but finally let go.

When Ma Nianyuan returned to her room, Qian Fangping suddenly appeared: "Yuanyuan, your Dr. Lin is really good—"

Ma Nianyuan wouldn't let Qian Fangping tease her, and said modestly, "It's alright, just a little clingy. We clearly agreed to meet at the ski resort tomorrow, but she couldn't wait to come over tonight."

Qian Fangping's expression couldn't help but reveal a hint of dreaminess and reminiscence. "Back when I met your father, it was the same. We wanted to be together all the time. Even if we didn't do anything, just looking at each other was enough to make us feel content. We would even complain that time was passing too quickly..."

Ma Nianyuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, and the joy she had felt upon seeing Lin Yusen vanished. She said to Qian Fangping, "Mom, if you can meet another person who makes your heart flutter, who makes you feel secure and fulfilled, then go ahead and pursue them. I'm all grown up now, and I have my own career and people that I love."

Qian Fangping felt that the blessings of one's children were indeed the greatest blessing, and couldn't help but laugh, "What, you only care about whether I'm happy or not, and have forgotten about your father? Your father was so good to you back then. Knowing that your grandmother favored boys over girls, he couldn't change her mind, so he simply took our whole family to live outside, and would only go back for a short visit during holidays—"

Ma Nianyuan took Qian Fangping's hand and said earnestly, "Mom, of course I remember Dad's goodness, just like I remember yours. I hope you can have everything you want. What Dad wanted most was you as his wife and me as his daughter, and for our little family to be warm and happy. Now, although he is gone, we are still together, and our little family is still warm and happy."

Qian Fangping's nose tingled, and tears welled up in her eyes. She didn't know how to describe her feelings, but all the grievances she had suffered in front of her parents seemed to vanish in an instant.

The mother and daughter spent a warm night together. The next day on the ski slope, Sheng Weiai, who had arrived earlier, saw Lin Yusen looking around and couldn't help but ask tentatively, "Your girlfriend is coming later, right? I think I heard her mother is coming too. Why don't you show me their photos, otherwise what if I don't recognize them when we run into each other later?"

Lin Yusen was slightly embarrassed by Sheng Weiai's teasing, but then he couldn't help but proudly say, "It's impossible not to recognize her. Nian Yuan is so conspicuous. Whenever she appears, she will definitely be the center of attention. You can recognize her at a glance."

Sheng Wei'ai became even more interested and intensified her offensive: "Then I can recognize them at a glance even when they're sitting on the cable car?"

Lin Yusen looked at the people passing overhead and suddenly waved enthusiastically upwards. Sheng Weiai also looked up and saw two people wearing ginger-yellow clothes and red pants. Their faces were not clear because of their hats and goggles, but their temperament was definitely different.

"Nianyuan—" Lin Yusen rushed over to help her up, not forgetting Qian Fangping who had come with Ma Nianyuan. "Hello, Auntie, I'm Lin Yusen, I'm—"

Ma Nianyuan interrupted directly: "Mom, this is Lin Yusen, the man I told you about, my boyfriend."

Qian Fangping quickly took off her goggles and greeted Lin Yusen: "You're the Dr. Lin that Yuanyuan mentioned, hello, hello."
