Upon hearing Sun Li’s words, Ye Ling felt too awkward to refuse. She pointed to the two types of fabric and said, “Then I’ll take these two. I like them both.”
A radiant smile immediately appeared on Sun Li’s face. “Alright, in a few days, we’ll go to town to find a tailor to make clothes!”
In the evening, when Wan Hai and the others returned home and saw that Sun Li had come back, they were also very pleased.
However, when they noticed that Sun Li hadn’t bought them anything but had purchased a bunch of perfumes and jewelry for Ye Ling, they all wore wry smiles.
Wan Feng murmured to Wan Hai in a low voice, “Mom is so biased! Lingling hasn’t even married Min Nan yet, and she already treats her like a daughter-in-law?”

In comparison, they, her biological children, seemed like cheap gifts.
As Sun Li had been on the road the entire day, Ye Ling offered to prepare dinner. Initially, Sun Li declined, but Wan Hai chimed in, “Mom, Lingling is a fantastic cook. Her culinary skills are on par with the chefs in county restaurants. You haven’t tasted Lingling’s cooking yet, have you? You should give it a try today.”
Sun Li, upon hearing Wan Hails words, became curious. She turned to Min Nan and said, “Then go to the kitchen and help Lingling with the vegetables and lighting the fire. Don’t let her tire herself out.”
Once Ye Ling and Min Nan entered the kitchen, Sun Li looked at Wan Hai and Wan Feng and said, “Alright, tell me, what happened while I was away? Why did that scoundrel Ma Kang come to our house today? Is he here to cause trouble for Lingling?”
Wan Hai and Wan Feng exchanged glances.
After Sun Li’s departure, a lot of things had occurred.
Wan Hai organized his thoughts and briefly recounted everything that had transpired after Ye Ling assisted in cooking and entertaining the leader of the production team, as well as the incident where she was abducted en route to the forest farm from Chen County.
Sun Li’s expression shifted from anger to concern. She slapped the table in fury, exclaiming, “Lingling saved so many workers. Has Ma Kang completely lost his conscience? How dare he threaten Lingling?”
Wan Hai sighed. “Ma Kang is primarily afraid that Min Nan will report the mine incident to the county, so he thought of using Lingling to threaten him.”
Sun Li furrowed her brow. “I’ll talk to Min Nan later about what to do. While this matter should be reported, Lingling is innocent. How can we allow her to become a scapegoat?”
While Sun Li and the others were chatting, Ye Ling and Min Nan were still cooking in the kitchen Ye Ling observed that Min Nan appeared to be deep in thought and highly focused, so she refrained from initiating a conversation.
For a while, the only sounds in the kitchen were the sizzling of ingredients.
“Ling’er, I’ve thought of a plan!” Min Nan’s low, magnetic voice suddenly rang out.
Ye Ling was taken aback, not by Min Nan’s abrupt words, but by how Min Nan addressed her.
How did Min Nan address her?
Ling’er… Could she have misheard it? This form of address seemed exceedingly intimate.

Min Nan articulated his proposed plan in one breath. After he finished, he noticed Ye Ling staring at him in astonishment, her cheeks still flushed. For a moment, he assumed that Ye Ling believed his plan was unworkable. After a brief pause, he asked, “What do you think?”
Ye Ling snapped out of her stupor and saw that Min Nan’s expression was normal. She understood that Min Nan was probably so engrossed in his thoughts that he hadn’t realized how he addressed her just now…
Thus, she was the only one feeling awkward.
Nonetheless, it was better to experience awkwardness alone than with two people.
Ye Ling mustered a smile. “I think it’s a good idea. We can give it a try.”
Min Nan nodded. “Alright, I’ll make the necessary arrangements, and I’ll also consult with Chen Si… Are the dishes ready? I’ll bring the dishes over. You can wash your hands.”
Min Nan adeptly and naturally brought the stir-fried dishes to the living room. Ye Ling observed Min Nan’s back and a trace of doubt flickered through her mind.
Even if Min Nan had been deeply absorbed in his thoughts just now, he shouldn’t have addressed her in that manner. Could it be… Ye Ling entertained a rather ambiguous conjecture but immediately shook her head vigorously.
No, it was probably just a slip of the tongue on Min Nan’s part. It was merely a casual form of address. Why was she overthinking it?
Min Nan typically didn’t address her as “Lingling” like Wan Hai and the others. How could he use a more intimate form of address in his heart?
Ye Ling washed her hands and returned to the living room. The family sat down to enjoy their meal..
