Chapter 936: Three Autumns

There was also Lil Ling’er who was peeking at her nervously through the gaps of the coats that kept her warm. Zhong Nuannuan swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

“After I’m done with these matters.”

“Okay, then we’ll wait for you! Grandpa is sick now, and things don’t look very optimistic for him. However, if he knows you’re coming back, he’ll be very happy.”

“Grandpa’s fine now.” Zhong Nuannuan wanted to inform the Nangong brothers when they brought Grandpa Nangong up earlier, but she did not find the chance to do so. Now that the chance presented herself, she immediately told her elder brothers about that.

Everyone’s faces lit up when they heard that.

“Really? How did you know? Did you receive news about Grandpa before coming to KYC Island?”

Before Zhong Nuannuan could answer Nangong Jin’s question, Nangong Ze said happily, “Grandpa says that you have miraculous medicinal skills. You must have saved Grandpa before rus.h.i.+ng over to save us, right? Nuannuan, you’re truly the best!”

In her previous life, she clearly hated Nangong Ze the most. However, in this life, seeing how much Nangong Ze liked her and the admiration in his eyes, Zhong Nuannuan felt that he seemed to be the most outgoing and cheerful among her elder brothers.

Seeing that Zhong Nuannuan did not refute, the few Young Masters from the Nangong family were even more certain of this matter. While they were finally relieved at how things progressed, they were even more surprised at how lucky they were to have a Doraemon-like sister.

Long after this, Zhong Nuannuan noticed that her elder brothers kept bringing up something that sounded like ‘Ding Dang[1]’. After asking around, she finally realized that it was Doraemon’s name and that she was Doraemon in her elder brothers’ hearts.

Zhong Nuannuan’s helicopter arrived before the Nangong family’s helicopter landed.

After removing the needles, the recovered Nangong Ling looked at Zhong Nuannuan reluctantly, accompanied by Nangong Xu. They each held Nuannuan’s hands as they shook her hands.

“Auntie, when are you coming to visit Ling’er?”

Lil Ling’er and Lil Sun looked so adorably cute that they could give everyone the urge to show kisses on them. Lil Ling’er was especially adorable. Perhaps it was due to her congenital heart disease, her soft and chubby appearance was especially adorable.

At this moment, Lil Ling’er had the look of a little girl who could not bear to let go of Zhong Nuannuan’s and watch her walk away. Zhong Nuannuan’s heart nearly melted.

“I… I’ll come back after dealing with that old witch.” For the first time, Zhong Nuannuan stuttered.

“Auntie, how long will you take? Xu’er will miss you.” Lil Sun also transformed into a clingy child.

Zhong Nuannuan estimated that she would have to make one or two trips to Jiang District after dealing with Matchmaker and said, “I’ll definitely be back in Emperor District in 20 days.”

“Huh—?!”

As soon as he said that, Lil Sun and Lil Ling’er gave an unhappy “Huh!”. There were another four lower voices that accompanied these “Huh!” too.

Not only were the two children dissatisfied with Zhong Nuannuan’s reply—even the four adults were dissatisfied.

To them, not seeing each other for a day felt like three pa.s.sing autumns. Their sister and also aunt who had just returned home was their closest relatives. They would feel like a piece of their heart was missing if they did not see each other for a day. How could this group of siscon allow their younger sister (and aunt) to leave for another 20 days before they could see each other again?

“Nuannuan, didn’t you say that you’ll torture Zhong Qianqian when she gets married?” Nangong Ze asked.

“She hasn’t graduated from high school yet, so she probably won’t get married so soon,” Zhong Nuannuan replied.

“That’s hard to say. What if she wants to get married early just to join the Nangong family?”
