Niu Ming swallowed a mouthful of saliva frantically, his gaze shifting to Uncle Niu.

At this moment, Uncle Niu noticed the exchange of looks between Niu Ming and Chen Yang, “What’s the matter?

Is there something you want to tell me?”

“Yes, Dad.

There’s something I need to tell you.”

Niu Ming nodded decisively.

Uncle Niu still hadn’t realized what was going on and remained very happy.

“Haha, alright, tell me, what is it?” Uncle Niu put down the bottle of alcohol, ready to listen attentively.

Niu Ming paused again before he slowly spoke, “Dad, the truth is, I’ve lied to you about getting married and having children.

To this day, I’m still alone with no family and no children.”

Boom.

“What?!!”

Although Niu Ming’s voice wasn’t loud, for Uncle Niu, it was as if lightning had struck on a clear day, immediately transforming his previously cheerful face.

He slammed the table and stood up.

“Dad, don’t get worked up, sit down and I’ll explain everything to you slowly.”

Seeing Uncle Niu’s strong reaction, Niu Ming was also a bit startled and hurriedly asked Uncle Niu to sit down.

But how could Uncle Niu sit now?

He had been looking forward to having grandchildren for a year or two, and now he was being told there were none.

How could he accept this so quickly?

“Niu Ming, are you playing a joke on me?

How could you lie to me?

How could you possibly not be married, not have children!” Uncle Niu said agitatedly.

“Uncle Niu, don’t be upset.

Let Niu Ming explain it to you slowly, it’s a long story.” At this point, Chen Yang also stood up to calm Uncle Niu down.

Listen to what Niu Ming has to say.

Uncle Niu’s eyes were wide with anger, staring intently at Niu Ming.

However, he could still take in what Chen Yang said.

“Fine, I’ll listen to you explain properly what exactly is going on,” Uncle Niu said as he sat down and lit a cigarette from the pack on the table.

Seeing this, Niu Ming also sat down and lit a cigarette.

Then he began to recount slowly the trials he’d been through over the years, why he had lied, why he hadn’t come back for so many years, and a series of other issues, laying them all out.

Throughout Niu Ming’s narrative, Uncle Niu’s emotions slowly began to shift.

His angry feelings became downcast, and then suddenly aged with sagely melancholy.

He seemed to have aged several years all at once.

“So, you’re saying that everything you’ve told me over the years was a lie?

You’re not married, you haven’t settled in the city, you haven’t made a lot of money, and the only time you did business you lost money, owing one hundred and twenty thousand?” Uncle Niu took a deep drag on his cigarette, looking at Niu Ming with calm eyes.

By this time, Niu Ming’s eyes were already red.

With a thump, he knelt down before Uncle Niu.

“Yes, Dad, I’ve lied to you all these years.

I just didn’t want you to know I wasn’t doing well, I wanted to make you proud, so I lied to you!

I’m sorry, Dad!”

After Niu Ming shouted this out, he gave Uncle Niu a big, resounding kowtow.

Uncle Niu had a blank expression, showing neither joy nor sorrow.

But by this time, everyone knew that Uncle Niu’s heart must be in extreme pain.

“Uncle Niu, Niu Ming didn’t mean to deceive you, his intentions were good, and now he’s come back with me, come clean with you because he didn’t want to continue like this,” Chen Yang whispered comfortingly.

Only then did Uncle Niu show a reaction.

He reached out with a trembling hand, grabbed the cup from the table, and gulped down a swig.

“I understand…

since all this is fake, that’s not important anymore.

The important thing is that you’ve come back, you’re still young, there’s still a chance,” Uncle Niu said.

Uncle Niu’s words were said either for Chen Yang or for Niu Ming, who was kneeling on the ground.

“Dad!

If you feel bad, if you’re angry inside, hit me a few times to let it out, don’t hold it in, Dad!” Hearing Uncle Niu speak, Niu Ming raised his head, crying.

But at this moment, Uncle Niu didn’t want to say anything or do anything.

He needed quiet, time to slowly accept the truth of Niu Ming’s words.

“I’m not upset, not angry, just feeling a bit stifled,” Uncle Niu said, and suddenly, he slowly stood up.

Chen Yang immediately went to support him, and Niu Ming also quickly stood up.

He supported the other side, fearing Uncle Niu might lose balance and fall.

“Help me to the bed to lie down for a bit, I’m a bit tired,” Uncle Niu said as he stabilized himself.

“Okay.”

Niu Ming and Chen Yang immediately helped Uncle Niu towards the bedroom, eventually laying him down in bed.

As soon as he was on the bed, Uncle Niu closed his eyes and stopped talking.

No matter whether Niu Ming spoke to him or Chen Yang did, he ignored them both.

“We should leave for now.

Uncle Niu must be feeling very upset, let’s give him some quiet,” Yang Ruoxi, who had come in, suggested upon seeing this.

“Ruoxi’s right, we’d better go now and let Uncle Niu have some peace,” Chen Yang nodded, and pulled Niu Ming out of the room.

Back in the living room, Niu Ming lit one cigarette after another, drinking glass after glass of liquor.

At first, Chen Yang joined him a little.

But seeing him drink like that, Chen Yang knew there would be trouble, so he held him back, stopping him from drinking more.

“That’s enough, Niu Ming, drinking too much is harmful to your health,” Chen Yang said.

Niu Ming stopped.

After Chen Yang spent some time counseling Niu Ming and seeing it was late, he left with Yang Ruoxi.

Niu Ming walked them to the door.

“No need to see us out, Niu Ming, just go rest.

If Uncle Niu feels better tomorrow, you can talk things through properly.

The elderly take time to accept things; he should feel better by tomorrow,” Chen Yang said from the doorstep.

“Mhm, thank you, Yang Zi.

Without you, I really couldn’t have taken this step today,” Niu Ming genuinely thanked Chen Yang.

Chen Yang smiled at this.

“Don’t be so formal; we’re from the same village.

It’s only right to help each other out,” he replied.

Niu Ming had many words of gratitude in his heart, but as a man, and as childhood friends from the same village,

he naturally couldn’t articulate them all, only able to convey his gratefulness with an appreciative gaze.

After saying goodbye at the door, Chen Yang walked home with Yang Ruoxi, flashlight in hand.

Once they reached the clinic, Chen Yang immediately found two sets of clean clothes to change into.

“Do you want to bathe first, or should I?

Or should we together?” he asked Yang Ruoxi after finding the clothes.

Yang Ruoxi, sitting on the edge of the bed and swinging her legs back and forth,

blushed to the color of a ripe peach when she heard his question.

“Of course, I’ll go first,” said Yang Ruoxi, her face red as she took a set of clothes from Chen Yang and entered the bathroom.

Yang Ruoxi’s shy demeanor was exceptionally charming, making Chen Yang laugh heartily.

“Hmph!

I warn you, you pervert, don’t you dare come in while I’m bathing; I’ll scream,” Yang Ruoxi’s voice suddenly rang out from the bathroom as Chen Yang laughed.

Chen Yang stiffened for a moment; originally, he had no such idea, but Yang Ruoxi’s words gave him the thought.

“You say I won’t come in, so I won’t?

I’m coming in,” he retorted and then decisively entered the bathroom.

“Ah!”

Yang Ruoxi indeed let out a scream but quickly quieted down after realizing what was happening.

“You pervert!”

Yang Ruoxi glared at Chen Yang, teeth gritted.

Chen Yang chuckled, wrapping his arms around her waist, knowing Yang Ruoxi was just bashful and not truly opposed to him.

After all, they had already been intimate; what was there to mind about a shared bath?

So, with a mix of gentle coercion and consent, they bathed together.

After that, everything else just happened naturally.
