NovelEnglish269 I Promise
What Le Yao didn’t expect was that her brother would come back with their parents the next day. She was doing questions at Qiao Qiao’s place when Han Xiangdong called her and told her that they were home.
“Qiao, come over for dinner tonight. I’ll go back first.” With that, Le Yao ran home in her slippers and found Han Baozhu sitting on the sofa with Shuo Shuo in his arms. Clearly, the little guy had acknowledged his grandparents and uncle. When he saw Le Yao, his eyes lit up, but he didn’t ask her to carry him.
Le Yao patted his head happily and looked at them. “Why are you back? Why didn’t you inform me so that I could pick you up?”
Han Baozhu turned his head away from her. It was obvious that he was angry. Liu Sujuan did the same.

“Dad and Mom asked me to book an early flight and take a taxi back. We didn’t inform anyone.” Han Xiangdong patted Le Yao’s head gently. “You don’t know how scared we were when we saw the news.”
“I’m fine and everything is okay, so...”
“You’re not treating us as your family.” Liu Sujuan couldn’t take it anymore. Her eyes were red. “If something happens to you, we...”
“Mom, don’t cry. I was wrong.” Le Yao hurriedly took a tissue and handed it over. “Besides, I’m lucky. I won’t die.”
“Pfft, pfft, pfft!” Liu Sujuan patted Le Yao’s shoulder. “What are you saying?”
“That’s right, that’s right. I still have to let you enjoy your old age and find a beautiful wife for my brother.” Le Yao reached out and hugged Liu Sujuan’s arm. “Don’t be angry.” Then, she looked at Han Baozhu. “Okay, Father?”
Shuo Shuo had been staring at everyone. At this moment, he actually reached out and touched Han Baozhu’s face. “Don’t angry...”
They froze for a moment, then everyone laughed.
“Alright, don’t angry.” Han Baozhu’s expression softened, but he still glanced at Le Yao. “Then you can’t hide anything from us in the future. We’re a family. If something happens, we have to shoulder it together. Otherwise, how can we be called a family?”
“Okay.” Le Yao raised her hand and promised, “I won’t hide it from you in the future, but for now, quickly go back to your room to take a shower and rest.”
“Promise.” Shuo Shuo also raised his hand.

The little guy smiled.
“Come, play with Auntie Mei.” Sister Mei came over and carried the little guy away. Liu Sujuan and her husband returned to their room to wash up.
Only then did Le Yao look at Han Xiangdong. “Can’t you hide something? I’m just afraid that Father and Mother will be anxious.”
“You’re still blaming me?” Han Xiangdong glared. “How big of a matter do you think that is? People died. How can I hide it? I was so anxious, but I didn’t dare to call you to ask, afraid that they would be suspicious. In the end, you...” As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
“Brother, I was wrong.” Le Yao was instantly terrified. Why did all of them have to cry? She was afraid of seeing people cry, especially men. It was too scary. She hurriedly pulled Han Xiangdong’s hand. “Don’t cry, or I’ll cry too.”
“I’m not crying.” Han Xiangdong sniffed and held back his tears.
Le Yao quickly took a tissue and pressed it on Han Xiangdong’s face. “Hurry up and wipe it. It’s too ugly.”
