Sister-in-law
Wan Feng’s eyes widened the moment he saw Ye Ling.
The young girl sitting opposite Min Nan had snow-white skin and delicate features like a doll. Her clear eyes seemed to be able to speak.
“Who is she?” Wan Feng turned to his mother in shock. “Is she Brother Min Nan’s girlfriend?”
Wan Hai and Wan Xue were momentarily stunned by Wan Feng’s words.
Girlfriend?
Sun Li covered her mouth and chuckled. “Not yet. She’s the intellectual young woman you mentioned yesterday! It seems Min Nan has known her for a while.”
Sun Li briefly explained how Ye Ling had just saved Xiao Hu, and then added, “This girl is kind-hearted, capable, and beautiful. No wonder even someone like Min Nan has fallen for her.”
The three brothers of the Wan family recalled Min Nan’s abnormal behavior yesterday and suddenly realized that Min Nan had suddenly acted so abnormally when he heard that Ye Ling had come to Willow Village!
Wan Hai suddenly had the urge to do what Wan Feng did. He wanted to sneak a peek at the woman who had caused Min Nan to behave strangely. However, he was the most mature man in the family, so he suppressed his curiosity.
“Looks like we’ll be able to attend Min Nan’s wedding soon,” Wan Hai jokingly remarked. After a moment of contemplation, he added, “I’ll inquire about this girl’s family background in a few days.”
Sun Li remained silent. She knew it wasn’t appropriate to secretly investigate the girl’s family situation, but Min Nan’s family background was unique. If the girl’s family circumstances were unsuitable, the two couldn’t be together.
Wan Hai’s advanced investigation could help avoid future troubles.
Inside the house, Min Nan quickly treated Ye Ling’s wound and said, “Try to keep it dry.”
Suddenly, he remembered that Ye Ling seemed to possess some medical knowledge, making him feel like he had stated the obvious.
Ye Ling nodded obediently. “Thank you, Officer Min. I understand.”
“No need to be so formal with me. Just call me Min Nan from now on,” Min Nan said hesitantly.
Ye Ling blinked her big, watery eyes. “Then I’ll call you Big Brother Min Nan. By the way, Big Brother Min Nan, the village chief asked me to come to Willow Village. Was it arranged by your police station?”
This… This was indeed the work of that b*stard Dai Wei! Min Nan controlled his expression and replied solemnly, “Yes, it was also arranged for your safety. You can settle down in our village without worries. If you need anything, you can come to me. When I’m not available, you can also look for my godmother.”
After he finished speaking, Min Nan looked out of the window and keenly sensed Wan Feng’s gaze. He immediately raised his voice and said, “Wan Feng, what are you doing in secret? Come in!”
Wan Feng, who was lying on the windowsill, was shocked. He walked in with Wan Hai and Wan Xue. When he saw Ye Ling, Wan Feng smiled warmly and shouted, “Hello, sister-in-law!”
Ye Ling was taken aback, her face turning red instantly. She hurriedly explained, “Comrade, you’ve misunderstood. Brother Min Nan and I don’t have that kind of relationship.”
“Oh, is that so? I thought Brother Min Nan, this steadfast comrade, had finally found love. He has never brought a girl home before!” Wan Feng smirked, clearly aiming to tease Min Nan.
Wan Hai and Ye Ling exchanged polite greetings, while Wan Hai secretly observed Ye Ling’s words and actions, forming his judgment.
Meanwhile, Wan Xue was completely captivated by Ye Ling’s beauty. He thought to himself, “Brother Min Nan’s girlfriend is so beautiful, just like a fairy!”
Feeling the attention of the Wan brothers, Ye Ling became somewhat nervous and involuntarily glanced at Min Nan, her eyes carrying a hint of helplessness.
Seeing Ye Ling’s anxious and helpless appearance, Min Nan’s heart softened. He reassured Ye Ling with his eyes and then turned his head to glare at Wan Feng, saying, “If you don’t speak, nobody will mistake you for a mute!” He then looked at Wan Xue and added, “Don’t just stand there dumbfounded. Go and help with serving the food.”
Just then, Sun Li came in with plates of soft buns. Wan Hai helped clean up the debris on the table, Wan Xue went to scoop the millet porridge and Wan Feng moved the stools over.
Ye Ling heaved a sigh of relief when she was no longer being watched by everyone.
During the meal, Ye Ling picked up a bun that Sun Li handed to her and took a bite. The juicy filling instantly burst out, stimulating her taste buds, while a rich aroma wafted around her nose.
“Lingling, do you like the buns? If you do, have some more. You’re so thin, and you must be finding it hard to adapt to our rural life!” Sun Li affectionately looked at Ye Ling, wishing she could stuff all the biggest buns into Ye Ling’s hands.
