A Warm Family

Even in her dreams, Wang Ting wanted another fragrant and soft daughter. She was so excited when she saw Xiang Wan!

"Why are you still standing outside? Come in quickly!" Wang Ting just noticed that Yang Heng was standing outside without entering the house and asked curiously.

Yang Heng looked aggrieved as he slowly entered the house.

"Dad, why did you just come in? Could it be that the sandstorm outside blinded your eyes and you couldn't find the door?" Yang Yang observed the situation outside clearly and as soon as he saw Yang Heng enter, he quickly teased him.

"Rascal, how dare you tease me!" Yang Heng playfully raised his hand and waved at Yang Yang. "Hurry up and greet. This is your sister Xiang Wan."

"Hello, Sis Xiang Wan! I am Yang Yang, soaring high like a Yang!" Yang Yang introduced himself seriously.

He had never seen anyone so good-looking before, not even the prettiest girl in his school was one percent as good as Xiang Wan. Hence, he tried his best to leave a good impression on her.

"Alright, stop chatting. Wan'er, please sit down quickly. Little Yang, help me get the bowls and chopsticks!" Wang Ting brought the dishes over and called Yang Yang to pick up the bowls.

Before she could say anything, she was arranged to sit down obediently at the dining table and help to arrange the dishes and cutlery.

Looking at the table full of delicious food in front of her, Xiang Wan teared up.

It had been a long time since she felt the warmth of a home, and she hadn't sat for a meal with a family together.

In her past life, Xiang Wan lived cautiously at home. In front of others, she had to maintain the demeanor and grace of a noble lady. Behind closed doors, she had to face the challenges and threats from her scumbag father and illegitimate siblings.

She couldn't take a wrong step. Every day, she had to practice how to become a qualified young lady of the Xiang family to secure her position and protect her mother's assets.

Xiang Wan had not experienced such a family atmosphere for a long time.

"Why are you crying? It's alright, Wan'er. You've broken Aunt's heart with your tears! What's wrong?" Wang Ting noticed that Xiang Wan's mood was off and hurriedly walked over, wiping her hands on her apron to dry the water stains.

"I'm sorry, Auntie. I just suddenly thought of my family." Xiang Wan choked out.

"Good child, don't cry. My good Wan'er. Don't cry." Wang Ting comforted her when she saw her crying.

"It's alright, Auntie. I'm sorry for ruining the atmosphere." Xiang Wan wiped her tears and said apologetically.

"No, from now on, come to Auntie's house for meals. Auntie will cook delicious food for you. Treat it as your own home, okay?" Wang Ting consoled Xiang Wan, complaining to fate for subjecting such a good girl to so much misfortune.

"That's right, Sis Wan. I heard that you're studying abroad. If you have time, please teach me their lessons!" Yang Yang quickly said, trying to comfort her.

"Your Auntie is right. This is your home." Yang Heng did not say much, but every word carried determination.

"Thank you…" she said gratefully.

Seeing that she finally smiled, everyone finally started eating.

After the meal, she took out the presents from her bag and handed them one by one.

"Auntie, this is French perfume. I think it suits you."

"If you're here, so be it. Why did you bring presents? Old Yang, what's wrong with you?!" Wang Ting glared at Yang Heng.

"This perfume seems quite expensive. I can't accept it! You can keep it for your use!" Wang Ting glanced at the packaging and thought that it was the same brand as one of the patient's family in the VIP ward of the hospital. She quickly waved it off.

"It's not expensive. I think this fragrance suits Auntie the best!" Xiang Wan handed the perfume back to Wang Ting.

Before Wang Ting could say anything, Xiang Wan turned to Yang Heng and said, "Uncle Yang, this is a tin of aged Pu-erh tea I got by chance. Now, it's about the right time to drink it."

Yang Heng's eyes lit up as he took the tea tin and carefully examined it.

Yang Yang looked at Xiang Wan with anticipation, and she decided to playfully tease him, not saying anything further.

"And what about mine, Sister Xiang Wan? What did you get for me!" Yang Yang looked at what his parents were holding, his eyes full of longing.

"Oh, I didn't know what boys like, so I didn't buy anything for you. If you tell me what you want, I'll bring it for you next time!" She looked at Yang Yang with embarrassment.

"Oh, I see." Yang Yang immediately felt downcast.

Yang Heng and his wife suppressed their laughter at his reaction. How could Xiang Wan, who was so considerate, forget to bring something for him? However, it was amusing to see him sulking.

"I'm just teasing you. Here, this is for you!" She handed him the last item in her bag.

"I knew Sister Wan wouldn't forget me!" Yang Yang exclaimed excitedly as he took the toy.

Everyone burst into laughter.
