Rebirth: It's Not You, It's Me

Bringing Chandu home, my parents smiled at each other.

"Xiaodu, why did you come here to buy all these old things? We already have everything at home."

"Uncle, aunt, this is etiquette." He knelt on the ground and bowed deeply.

My parents are already used to the big gifts from the Korean country, so they quickly let him get up.

"Uncle, aunt, I want to be with Luo Luo, please agree."

"I knew you had feelings for Luo Luo. You've been patient for so many years!" Dad teased him.

"I respect Luoluo's choice. As long as she is happy, that's all."

"You know about Luo Luo's past relationships and that she has four children. Can you accept that?"

"Yes, Auntie, I know everything. I can accept it. I will love everything she loves. Besides, my parents and sister all like Luo Luo very much. I will not let Luo Luo experience bad things again."

"That's good. This conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been a problem since ancient times. If you were with Luo Luo, what would you do?"

"I will shift my work focus to the mainland. Although there is a restriction order now, I can move behind the scenes. I have bought a house in Shanghai. My father is also in Shanghai. I think my family will also come to Shanghai to live in the future."

"Oh?"

"But don't worry, Auntie. I won't let my parents interfere with Luoluo and I's lives. And no matter what, Luoluo and I are always on the same front. After all, my mom is loved by my dad, but Luoluo can only be loved by me."

"It depends on your performance. If you treat Luo Luo badly, we will never allow it. After all, in China, if you bully our children, we have the ability to make sure you can never enter the mainland again."

The warning from my parents made Candu feel uneasy. But he could understand my parents. After all, I had been hurt by men twice, and they couldn't bear to see their baby being bullied again.

Of course he also knew that my parents didn't cause trouble for Xiaoshi because we had a child, and I would not allow my parents to hurt Xiaoshi.

After the threats, the parents began to entertain Chandu warmly again, which made Chandu almost schizophrenic.

After the meal, the kids were busy playing. They didn’t react when I said I was leaving. It seemed like they were afraid that I would take them back to Kyoto, so they hid themselves.

I was also happy and relaxed. Can and I drove to the airport and then set off for Shanghai.

"Baby, uncle and aunt are really a little scary today."

"Haha...that just proves that I'm really not easy to bully."

"I didn't dare to bully you in the first place, okay? That shoulder throw almost broke me to pieces, and I couldn't get up for a long time."

"I'm sorry, Oppa!" I hugged Chandu's arm while acting coquettishly.

"There's really nothing I can do to you."

"Oppa, what does uncle like? Let's go buy some gifts when we get to the Magic City!"

"It's all right. We just need to buy some cakes."

"That won't work. We don't give such small gifts when meeting parents for the first time."

"Let's see later!"

"Okay, if my sister arrives, let her stay at home!"

"Yeah, but I think my sister will live with dad."

"It's you who wants your sister to live with dad!" As soon as I said this, Chan's little thoughts were exposed and he smiled shyly.

"Hehe...I don't want my sister to come and live with me. If she comes, she will occupy you. I want to sleep with my arms around you."

"How can I sleep with you?"

"If my sister doesn't come over today, isn't it okay for me to let you sleep?" Chandu looked so aggrieved that I couldn't bear to complain about his actions anymore.

"What time is your flight tomorrow, sister?"

"The flight is in the morning, and when it arrives I can pick her up directly to see her dad."

"uh-huh!"

"My sister just sent a message saying that my mother and brother-in-law are coming too."

"Then I'll prepare some more gifts for the meeting!"

"Baby, I thought you would be unhappy."

"Why would you put me in such a dilemma if you're worried that I'm not happy?"

"sorry!"

"Forget it, I forgive you this time, but I won't tolerate it in the future!"

"Thank you, baby! I love you!"

We drove to the mall, and I bought Yuqian Longjing and Maotai for Chandu's father, bird's nest and handmade Suzhou embroidery scarves for his mother, a Van Cleef & Arpels bracelet and saffron for his sister, and black wolfberry and American ginseng for his brother-in-law.

The next morning, I drove to pick up Chandu's family.

As soon as I left the house, Chandu put a coat on me.

"The wind is a little chilly this morning."

"Thank you Oppa!"

Then the two of them drove to the airport with the sunrise. Not long after waiting at the airport, Chandu's mother, sister, and brother-in-law arrived.

I quickly greeted everyone.

My sister hugged me as if I were a friend I hadn't seen for a long time.

After picking up the person, we drove to where Chandu’s father lived.

I distributed the gifts I had prepared to everyone.

When Chandu's mother saw the Suzhou embroidery silk scarf, a characteristic of China, that I had specially prepared, she happily took my hand.

"Luo Luo, you are so thoughtful. I have liked this for a long time. I asked Candu's father to buy it, but he couldn't find an authentic handmade one. I really like this one. Thank you!"

"You're welcome, Auntie. Do you like Suzhou embroidery? If you like it, I'll take you to Suzhou if I have the chance. I know a master of Suzhou embroidery. She can customize double-sided embroidery. It's a great craft."

"Ah, I've seen that double-sided embroidery on the Internet. It's said to be an intangible cultural heritage and is usually used as a national gift."

"Yeah, that's it."

"That's great, I really want to go and see it."

"Auntie, how long are you going to stay here? If we have time, we can drive to Suzhou, which is not too far away."

"I have time, and I can stay a few more days. You can play with your sister first. She has work to do, so she can't stay for long."

I looked at my sister, and she replied, "Then let's go to Suzhou tomorrow. I also want to see the double-sided embroidery you mentioned, and I also want to customize a cheongsam. We can't just come here once."

"Then thank you for your help, Luo Luo."

"Auntie, you don't have to be so polite. When you come to China, I should accompany you to play."

"This girl is really sweet! My little brat is really lucky."

"Mom, I'm pretty good too."

"What's good about you? In my heart, you don't seem to have a healthy brain. The only time your IQ was online was when you liked Luo Luo and pursued Luo Luo to become my younger sister." In the sister's mind, younger brothers are always stupid!

"No, I have a lot of fans."

"Do your fans know you're so stupid?"

"Sister, you can't keep ruining my show in front of Luo Luo."

"Luo Luo, what do your parents do for a living?" Candu's father also asked about my situation.

"My parents run a small business together."

"Well, that's pretty good."

I could tell that Chandu's father was not trying to find out about my family background, but was trying to find a topic to talk about.

"Luo Luo's family is very good."

"Who asked you a question?" Candu was ruthlessly hurt again and again!
