Chapter 901: Why Does a Man Have to Be So Good-Looking
Chapter 901: Chapter 901: Why Does a Man Have to Be So Good-Looking
Back in Xiang Yazhi’s house, she saved the paralyzed Grandma Xiang. At that time, Lian Qingyang felt uneasy in his heart. Later, when they placed Grandma Xiang in the nursing home, unexpectedly, she passed away after a short period.
The next morning, Lian Qingyang explained the situation to Tang Yue, saying that he planned to return to Sea City to bid farewell to Grandma Xiang.
"Xiao Yang, you can’t bring the dead back to life. You’ve done what you should, don’t blame yourself." Tang Yue gently comforted him, afraid that Lian Qingyang was overthinking.
"Sister, I understand." Lian Qingyang became quiet, saying, "Everything at the factory is normal. If there’s really any emergency, I’ve told them to come find you."
"Alright, you go to Sea City with peace of mind. Don’t worry about things here." Tang Yue said this.
On that day, Lian Qingyang boarded the plane to Sea City.
The passing of Grandma Xiang made Tang Yue remember Elder Mrs. Zhang and Granny Tang. These two elderly ladies were also getting on in age. Over the past few years, Tang Yue always urged Uncle Tang and Zhang Huafeng to remember to check the health of the two elderly every year. Even if there’s any disease, discovering it early means they can treat it early.

In Sea City, the funeral for Grandma Xiang was held very simply at the funeral home. Not many came to mourn. When the Xiang Family was prosperous, many people showed up when Grandma Xiang was in an accident. But now, as the saying goes, when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. Besides, Xiang Yawen is hiding somewhere, Xiang Yazhi has gone mad. If it weren’t for Lian Qingyang handling it, Grandma Xiang might not have been able to rest in peace.
Three days later, Grandma Xiang was buried, with Lian Qingyang choosing a grave next to Grandpa Xiang’s.
"Grandma Xiang, although I’m not a child of the Xiang Family, I grew up in the Xiang Family, and I still remember the kindness shown by you and Grandpa Xiang." Lian Qingyang, dressed in a black suit, inexplicably matured a lot. He murmured many words before leaving the cemetery.
"Did you find Xiang Yawen?" Lian Qingyang asked, gazing at the scenery retreating outside the window. Everything from the Xiang Family’s past flashed before his eyes like that retreating view.
Compared to Xiang Yazhi, this mother, Grandpa Xiang and Grandma Xiang treated Lian Qingyang very well. Among Xiang Yawen’s children, Lian Qingyang was always the one being protected.
"No." Lian He shook his head and said, "Xiang Yawen left with his wife and children. If he wants to hide, we can’t find him."
"Then forget it."
Lian Qingyang didn’t persist. He went to a psychiatric hospital with Lian He. In the small ward, Xiang Yazhi was always holding a stuffed doll, murmuring: Xiao Yang, you are my son, you are my son.
"Since she went mad, she’s always been saying this." Lian He looked calmly at Xiang Yazhi. Over the years, he had already come to terms with it. From now on, he had a son, a daughter, a grandson, and a granddaughter, which made him very happy.
"People only realize what they treasure after losing it." Lian Qingyang stubbornly turned his head, took just one glance, and then left without looking back. Wearing a black suit, he walked down the long corridor, lonely and stubborn.
Lian He took another glance at Xiang Yazhi in the ward. In the past, Lian Qingyang probably wished deeply for this mother to show him a bit of affection.

"Sister, I’m planning to use this money to start a business." Sun Rou hesitated for a few days and finally made a decision.
Sun Qing asked, "Do you want to open a clothing store?"
Sun Rou nodded and explained, "Sister, I’ll treat this money as a loan. When I make money, I’ll return it. Daddy and Mom are definitely working hard at home picking and roasting tea leaves. With my physical condition, even if I study, I can’t work like you, Sister. Opening a store is the best option."
She knew her own body. If she became a regular worker, she wouldn’t be able to endure it. Even working like Sun Qing, tirelessly, wasn’t possible for her.
But running a clothing store was different. She could hire a worker, and her responsibilities would be simple.
"What kind of clothing store do you want, and where will you get your merchandise?" Sun Qing asked again.
"I’ve heard that your clothing factory also has children’s clothes, right? I want to sell children’s clothes." Sun Rou aspired to this and naturally found out that Tang Mingli’s wife, Wei Jiajia, had opened Mingyue Clothing but didn’t sell children’s clothes.
Sun Qing was silent for a while, then raised her head with a smile, saying, "Xiao Rou, children’s clothes sound good, but I need to ask Tang Yue."
"And her little aunt." Sun Qing added.
Currently, Wei Jiajia has only opened Mingyue Clothing, but who knows if they plan to open a children’s clothing store too?
So, asking them first would be best.
"Okay." Sun Qing excitedly nodded, saying, "Sister, once I make money, you won’t have to work so hard."
"Xiao Rou, as long as you’re well, Sister doesn’t mind working hard at all." Sun Qing tightly held Sun Rou’s hand. Over the past days, she had seen Sun Rou’s hesitation and struggle.
As long as Sun Rou remembered them, Sun Qing felt content.
That evening, Sun Qing brought Sun Rou along.
It might have been luck, but Tang Mingli and Wei Jiajia were at Tang Yue’s house with their two kids.
Tang Mingli saw the pictures Tang Yue had taken, and kept asking if Lian Qingyang could take a family photo for them.
"Uncle, Xiao Yang went back to Sea City. Once he returns, he’ll surely take your picture." Tang Yue said with a laugh, her eyes falling on Tuantuan beside her. Tuantuan, just over a year old, could now walk along the sofa, though wobbly, seemingly ready to fall any moment.
"Uncle, Tuantuan is so cute, just like little aunt." After seriously observing Tuantuan, Tang Yue said.
"Xiao Yue, that’s not right. Does it mean I’m not good-looking?" Tang Mingli murmured, seeing Wei Jiajia’s smile, he said with a laugh, "Jiajia, I feel like Xiao Yue is saying I’m not good-looking. I know, Tuantuan looks like you, the best looking. See those dimples, just like yours."
Tang Mingli’s strong survival instincts made Tang Yue laugh heartily.
"A grown man doesn’t need to look so good," Wei Jiajia glanced at him. Her words might say one thing, but her proud expression and smile showed her happiness.
"Sun Qing, Sun Rou, have you had dinner?"
Upon seeing the sisters enter, Tang Yue invited them in and after some conversation, asked, "Do you have something on your mind?"
Usually, Sun Qing only visits when she has something.
"Yes, a little bit." Sun Qing said, feeling slightly embarrassed to speak.
Sun Rou quietly shook her head at Sun Qing.
Sun Qing thought of her sister’s fondness for this endeavor. If she wasn’t deeply interested in children’s clothing, she probably wouldn’t have mentioned it. So, Sun Qing took a deep breath and began to speak.
