Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

As the neighbors dispersed, Chen Dong looked at Chen Guilan with a serious expression and advised, "Third Aunt, come back to my house with me."

"This place is too dangerous now. It was only because we were all here that the thug didn't dare to do anything reckless."

"But our neighbors all have their own lives; they can't be there for us every day."

"Once they go to work, who will protect you and your cousins?"

"Your nephew can't beat three adults."

Chen Guilan's body was still trembling slightly. She nodded nervously, her voice tinged with fear: "Dongzi, is it okay if we go to your house? Your parents won't mind, will they?"

Chen Dong quickly reassured her, "Third Aunt, what are you saying? Even if my dad is the deputy director of the Urban Construction Bureau, he's still your own brother. There's room at home, and Mom and Dad will definitely take good care of you."

Chen Guilan was slightly relieved and hurriedly turned around to go inside to tidy up.

In that dilapidated wooden box, they rummaged through several faded clothes with many patches, hurriedly folded them, and gently placed them on the basket of Chen Dong's bicycle.

Then, she sat sideways on the back of the bicycle, holding Er Ya tightly, as if afraid that the child would disappear if she let go.

Chen Dong lifted Daya onto the old-fashioned bicycle and said with a smile, "Daya, hold on tight, let's go home."

Twelve-year-old Daya blushed and nodded slightly.

All the way, Chen Dong pedaled his bicycle hard.

Chen Guilan stared blankly ahead, her mind filled with the image of Monkey King's fierce expression as he tried to drag Er Ya away to sell her to pay off debts.

When they arrived at Chen Dong's house, his parents hadn't come home from get off work yet.

Chen Dong warmly invited Chen Guilan and her two cousins ​​to sit on the sofa, then turned and went into the kitchen.

A little while later, he brought out several bright red apples and carefully rinsed them under the tap.

Then he found a knife, cut it into small pieces, put it on a plate, and placed it on the table in front of Chen Guilan.

"Third Aunt, have some apples first to calm your nerves."

"Yes, thank you, Dongzi. I don't know what I would have done if it weren't for you today."

Looking at Chen Dong as if from another world, Chen Guilan spoke with great gratitude.

Then Chen Guilan added, "Dongzi, you've really grown up now."

Chen Dong smiled and took the apple to tease his two cousins.

As night fell, Chen Jianguo and Li Huazhen returned home after get off work.

As soon as I entered, I saw Chen Guilan and her two children sitting on the sofa, their faces full of surprise.

Chen Jianguo put down his briefcase and asked, "Guilan, why did you bring the child here?"

With tears welling up in her eyes, Chen Guilan recounted everything that had happened during the day.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianguo and Li Huazhen's faces instantly darkened.

Chen Jianguo paced back and forth in the living room, cursing, "That Liu Dazhu is a complete beast! He caused trouble outside and now he wants to use the child to pay off his debts. Does he have any humanity at all?!"

As he continued cursing, his gaze drifted intentionally or unintentionally towards Chen Dong.

He knew in his heart that this matter was probably not so simple.

Judging from the way Chen Dong made promises to me a couple of days ago, maybe this was something he arranged intentionally, so that Guilan could see Liu Dazhu for who he really was and get a divorce sooner.

Of course, that would be the best approach, otherwise it would be a real problem.

Chen Jianguo planned to ask him about it later.

Li Huazhen chimed in, "You shouldn't be with someone like that. Guilan, just stay here and relax."

“We have another guest room at home. If we tidy it up and squeeze in, we can definitely find a place to sleep.”

Chen Guilan was moved to tears and repeatedly thanked them, saying, "Brother, sister-in-law, thank you so much."

At this moment, Li Huazhen smiled and pulled Chen Guilan and the two children up, saying, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. We're family, why bother with all that! I'll take you to take a bath and change into clean clothes."

With that, Li Huazhen led the group into the bathroom.

Li Huazhen found a clean set of her own clothes and handed it to Chen Guilan, saying, "Guilan, you can wear mine later, just make do for now."

They dug out Chen Dong's old clothes and prepared changes of clothes for Daya and Erya.

After taking a shower and changing her clothes, Chen Guilan walked out of the bathroom.

Chen Dong's eyes lit up.

The third aunt had messy hair, a haggard face, and clothes that were always covered in dust and patches—the quintessential image of a hardworking rural woman.

But now, she is wearing her mother Li Huazhen's clothes.

Her hair was wet and draped over her shoulders. Although she still looked tired, her eyes held a gentler look.

She even has the appearance of a gentle and demure wife.

Daya and Erya seemed like completely different people.

Before, her face was dirty, her hair was messy like a bird's nest, and her skin looked like it had been tanned dark by the sun.

Now, dressed in Chen Dong's clean clothes, her little face, washed with hot water, revealed fair and tender skin, and her eyes sparkled; she was incredibly cute.

They no longer look like African refugees.

Looking at his transformed sister and nieces, Chen Jianguo sighed inwardly.

He walked up to Chen Dong and said in a low voice, "Dongzi, what are your plans? Tell Dad."

Chen Dong looked up at his father and replied earnestly, "Dad, I just want my third aunt to leave Liu Dazhu completely, so that she and my cousins ​​can no longer suffer."

Chen Jianguo patted him on the shoulder: "Yes, you did the right thing. But this matter needs to be considered carefully, after all, it's your third aunt's marriage."

"Dad, don't worry, I've arranged everything."

Chen Dong revealed a confident smile.

In the evening, the family sat around the dining table for dinner.

Li Huazhen specially prepared a sumptuous meal and kept putting food on Chen Guilan and the children's plates, saying, "Eat more, look how thin the children are."

Looking at the table full of food, Chen Guilan's eyes welled up with tears: "Brother, sister-in-law, I..."

Li Huazhen interrupted her: "Don't say anything more, we're family."

After the meal, Chen Guilan helped Li Huazhen clear the dishes.

In the kitchen, Chen Guilan couldn't help but cry and complain: "Sister-in-law, my life is so hard. I thought Liu Dazhu could change, but he's getting worse and worse."

Li Huazhen comforted her, "It's alright, it's all in the past. We'll take care of things from now on. Just stay here, find a job, and raise your child."

In the living room, Chen Jianguo and Chen Dong sat close together on the sofa.

"Tell me, is it true or false that they used Er Ya to pay off the debt?"

Chen Jianguo looked at Chen Dong with a serious expression.

"It's fake. I arranged the script myself. I just wanted to scare my aunt. Otherwise, with her personality, she would never get a divorce."

"And don't think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill."

"Dad, take a look at this first."

"My dear uncle-in-law lied to my aunt, saying it was medicine for epilepsy!"

Chen Dong sneered, flicking and buttoning his sleeves as he took out the 'headache powder' that had slipped inside earlier and placed it in Chen Jianguo's hand.
