Chapter 16: The Feeling of Home

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chen Lan didn’t expect to run into one of her family members.

She had escorted Wen Jing to her home, but only to the entrance of the courtyard. Firstly, it wasn’t the designated visiting day, and Tang Ye hadn’t accompanied her, so it wouldn’t look good if she went home alone. Others would gossip about it too. Secondly, she didn’t know how to face her parents and family.

In her previous life, she had experienced a childhood similar to Wen Jing’s, unloved by her parents, and raised by her grandmother. When she was twelve years old, her grandmother passed away, and she lived like an orphan.

Now, with this group of family, she didn’t know how to interact with them and was worried they would realize she wasn’t part of the family.

However, the moment she saw Chen Shi, all her worries about not fitting in vanished. She walked towards the direction of her home, supporting Chen Shi.

As they walked, she scolded him gently, “Grandpa, your leg is injured. Why are you walking so fast? What if you fall? I’m not going to run away, you know?”

Chen Shi, hearing this, apologized like a child, “Aiya, Grandpa misses you. I won’t do it again.”

The two of them walked back home together. Chen Lan settled the elderly man in, ready to leave, but Chen Shi held her back.

“Lil’ girl, have you been wronged? Tell Grandpa if Tang Ye doesn’t treat you well, I’ll have your father talk to him!”

“How can she suffer any grievances? It is good enough if she doesn’t bully Ahye!” Chen Lan was about to respond when she was interrupted by an angry voice. “You run back home on the second day after the wedding. Is this what our Chen family taught you?”

Chen Jun, who was supposed to be at work in the military at this time, happened to forget a document at home, leading to his unexpected encounter with his good-for-nothing daughter.

“You keep your mouth shut! This is Lil’ girl’s home, and she can come back anytime she wants,” Chen Shi scolded Chen Jun with a displeased expression.

“Dad, I just sent Wen Jing home, and I happened to see Grandpa, so I brought him back,” Chen Lan explained with a hint of helplessness. She was once again bearing the consequences of the original character’s actions.

Chen Jun stared at her for a while and then snorted before retreating to his study.

“Don’t mind him. He’s probably angry with someone else and taking it out on you,” Chen Shi comforted Chen Lan, concerned that she might be upset.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa. Dad is just concerned about me. Have a good rest. I’ll head back now.”

Chen Jun came out of his study and heard that Chen Lan was about to leave. He looked at her face, which was now flushed from the sun, and felt both angry and concerned. “Since you’re here, stay for lunch and come to the study room for a moment.”

After speaking, Chen Jun turned and entered his study again. Chen Lan glanced at Chen Shi on the sofa and followed into the study.

“Have a seat.” Chen Jun softened his tone, still caring for his daughter. He motioned for Chen Lan to sit opposite him.

Chen Lan obediently took a seat and waited for him to continue.

“Lanlan, your mom and I have always indulged you since you were young, but this time, we forced you into this marriage. However, you should know that we made this decision for your good. Liang Chen is a promising young man, but he is not suitable for you. Now that you and Ahye are married, it’s an unchangeable fact. Stop thinking about Liang Chen and focus on living a good life with Ahye.”

“Ahye has had a tough life, but he’s also very loyal and devoted. As long as you treat him well, he will take care of you for the rest of his life. Moreover, the leaders in the troop value him, and his future is limitless. Just settle down and live a happy life with him.”

Chen Jun’s words were filled with earnest concern, and there was also a sense of helplessness. He had reluctantly asked Tang Ye to marry Chen Lan, and in his heart, it had always been a difficult decision to make. He despised the idea of using gratitude as leverage, but if he didn’t do this, his daughter’s life might be ruined.

“Dad, don’t worry. I’ve also come to terms with everything. The current situation is the arrangement of fate. I no longer have any feelings for Liang Chen, and I won’t hold any illusions. I’ll live a good life with Ahye. You and Mom don’t have to worry. Take care of your health.” Chen Lan understood that no matter how angry Chen Jun appeared, it was all because he cared for her, and she cherished this fatherly love.

“It’s good that you can think this way.” Chen Jun was somewhat skeptical of Chen Lan’s words, but he hoped that his daughter meant every word. “Ahye has earned all his military honors with his life on the line. He has many injuries, so please take good care of him in your daily life. And this boy is too frugal, always training hard, so make sure to nourish him more.”

As he spoke, Chen Jun opened a drawer and took out an envelope, handing it to Chen Lan.
