Chain in Hand, Slaying Lovey-Dovey Dogs!
An Nuan was woken up by a phone ringing in the morning. She found herself being held in Liu Chang'an's arms again when she woke up. She smiled sweetly and picked up the phone on the bedside table to answer it.
"Which room are you in?"
A sharp, piercing sound rang out, as if the furious face were right next to her. An Nuan was so frightened that her heart almost stopped. She turned around and grabbed Liu Chang'an's arm tightly. Then she glanced at her phone screen and saw that it was indeed Professor Liu.
"My God... Ah, it really is my mom!" An Nuan quickly pulled Liu Chang'an to wake him up.
Liu Chang'an was sleeping soundly... It had been so many years since he had woken up in the morning with a beautiful young girl in his arms. However, she was noisy and disruptive, not unlike Zhou Dongdong, who always ran into his room and stuffed things into his mouth while he was sleeping.
"Your mother... your mother..." Liu Chang'an remembered a version of Fang Shiyu, where Fang Shiyu's father- Rooftop sang "Your mother, your mother, your mother made a mistake in giving birth to you..." and suddenly he came to his senses.
Which room are you in?
Liu Yuewang paused for a moment, then, hearing the chaotic sounds from the other side, immediately shouted again.
Now Liu Chang'an also sensed the overwhelming force of Liu Yuewang's approach.
"Let's run!" An Nuan said to Liu Chang'an in a panic, recalling the fear she had felt before when she was controlled by a bicycle chain.
Liu Chang'an glanced at the snow outside the window, which was no longer getting thicker and softer, and shook his head. "If you run, you'll leave footprints in the snow, and others can catch up by following them."
"Wake up! We're not rabbits, and Professor Liu isn't a hunter!" An Nuan said anxiously, feeling that Liu Chang'an was the kind of guy who would be struck by lightning and still fantasize about whether he would time travel. He was still being irresponsible at a time like this.
I'll shoot you all dead!
Upon hearing An Nuan's words, Liu Yuewang immediately declared that she was like a hunter stalking them, and they shouldn't even think about escaping.
Liu Chang'an took the phone and told Liu Yuewang the room number.
"Did my mom run away to Lin'an?" Seeing Liu Chang'an hang up the phone, An Nuan thought of this terrifying possibility. Otherwise, why would she ask for the room number... But how did she know the hotel? An Nuan had been holding back from posting on her WeChat Moments.
You'll see soon enough. Get dressed.
An Nuan quickly got up, but Liu Chang'an held her down.
"Let me help you put it on." Liu Chang'an shook his head, telling her not to move.
Despite some worries, being held down by Liu Chang'an and watching him carefully help her put on her clothes layer by layer made An Nuan feel much more at ease, even though she was shy.
"I was just shy," An Nuan quickly said, feeling that Liu Chang'an hadn't seen her shyness... She had to remind him, lest he think she had lost that cute, bashful girlishness.
"Okay, okay, an eighty-year-old girl who still blushes and gets shy." Liu Chang'an cupped her face and looked at her. Sure enough, with her moist eyes, she looked shy.
There was a knock on the door. Liu Chang'an didn't bother to change his clothes. He just put on his pajamas, tied his belt, and went to open the door.
Liu Yuewang was standing outside the door.
At first glance, the beautiful Professor Liu still maintained her most elegant state. Even though she rushed over from Junsha, her hair was still perfectly in place, and her bangs were neatly arranged on her forehead. In the snowy weather, the beautiful woman in the cheongsam exuded a kind of beauty that was more beautiful than the snow itself.
But her eyes were filled with rage, as if she were brewing something, ready to unleash flames that would burn Liu Chang'an to ashes the moment she opened her mouth.
"I saw Zhizhi's post on Old Ling's phone, so I knew you guys were at this hotel!" The traditional literature and Chinese studies circles in Lin'an have a good atmosphere and often hold events. Liu Yuewang has been to Lin'an more than once or twice. Once, a high-end forum was held at the Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou at West Lake, and Liu Yuewang, as an important guest, was also accommodated at this hotel by the forum organizers.
Liu Yuewang even took some beautiful photos and chartered a hotel boat to and from West Lake. How could she not recognize her? Even without being told where she was, she could find her!
"Mom... let me explain!" An Nuan peeked out from behind Liu Chang'an and looked at Liu Yuewang.
Liu Yuewang glanced back at the door and then closed it.
She casually opened her large handbag, took out something wrapped in a white cloth, tore off the cloth, revealing... a bicycle chain.
"Mom! Mom! Calm down! Someone's going to die!" An Nuan felt pain all over her body, like a stress reaction, and screamed as she grabbed Liu Chang'an and backed away.
"You really fought with her?" Liu Chang'an finally saw the props that accompanied An Nuan's painful memories from her childhood to her teenage years, and couldn't help but laugh.
"You can still laugh! I'll beat you up too!" Liu Yuewang was furious.
"I'll take An Nuan's share." Liu Chang'an shielded An Nuan behind him. "You can hit me as many times as you want."
An An Nuan of warmth and sweetness washed over me—my boyfriend! This is the power of a boyfriend! This is what it feels like to have a boyfriend who can protect you!
If Han Zhizhi were here, she would be so envious of me... Why did I want Han Zhizhi to see this? Because only Han Zhizhi could truly understand how happy it is to have someone shield you from the whip of the bicycle chain.
"No! Mom, I wanted to come with Liu Chang'an myself, it's not his fault." An Nuan suddenly became brave.
Throughout history, love has been a driving force that enables women to face everything.
"Fine, still showing off your love in front of me... I'll beat them both." Liu Yuewang dropped her bag, took a white cloth and wrapped it around the other end of the chain so that pulling the chain wouldn't hurt the delicate skin on her palms.
"You can only hit me." Liu Chang'an shook his head. "I brought her here, I did the deed, so the responsibility lies with me... She's just an innocent and adorable Little White who was kidnapped."
An Nuan quickly clung to Liu Chang'an's back; he was just an innocent and adorable Little White! An Nuan then stole a glance at Liu Yuewang.
Liu Yuewang's lips moved, and her brows furrowed. Suddenly, she bent over, barely managing to lift the bicycle chain. Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer, clutching her chest and dry heaving twice. Then, she staggered and sat down on the sofa, staring weakly at Liu Chang'an and An Nuan.
An Nuan was startled and rushed over, pressing down on Liu Yuewang's hand that was holding the bicycle chain as she asked with concern, "Mom, are you alright? What happened?"
Liu Chang'an walked over, pressed his hand on Liu Yuewang's wrist to check her pulse, and then said, "Your mother has been holding in her anger since last night, and anger is always the root of all illnesses... Right now, her blood is rushing to her head, her heart is beating fast, and her breathing is rapid, which has led to stagnation of liver qi, disharmony between the liver and gallbladder, and blockage of kidney qi. Moreover, because she has no appetite, she probably hasn't eaten anything since last night, which will cause digestive problems. Anger is harmful to the body."
"Ah... this... is this very serious?" An Nuan looked at Liu Yuewang with fear and trepidation.
"You... you're making it sound like I'm going to die!" Liu Yuewang finally caught her breath. "If you hadn't said such disgusting and nauseating things, would I be like this?"
"Your mother is usually carefree, and there are very few things in life that upset her, so she has hardly experienced the mental adjustment and tempering that ordinary people go through. When ordinary people encounter this kind of thing, even if they get angry, it won't affect their health so quickly, but your mother is different... She lacks adaptability, just like a child who always lives in an overly clean environment has a much higher chance of developing leukemia than an infant in an ordinary living environment," Liu Chang'an explained.
"Then you'd better stop making me angry!" Hearing Liu Chang'an's explanation, Liu Yuewang actually believed it to a large extent, and vaguely felt that her skin had deteriorated a bit because of some kind of liver and gallbladder disharmony.
Liu Chang'an poured a glass of water, and behind An Nuan and Liu Yuewang's backs, spat a little water into it before handing it to Liu Yuewang.
Liu Yuewang took it and drank it all in one gulp.
"This water contains special nutrients that can quickly repair your body and even help repair skin damage caused by the long journey," Liu Chang'an said after she finished drinking it.
Liu Yuewang was about to say "I don't believe you," but as soon as she finished drinking, she immediately felt something different about her body. She felt sleepy, took a nap, and when she woke up, she felt much more energetic.
An Nuan was somewhat surprised and wanted to ask what special nutritional component it was, but considering that Liu Chang'an had confessed his "superpower" to her last night, she felt more at ease.
"If you're not angry and don't beat me and An Nuan, I can continue to provide nutrients, which will be very beneficial to your health." Liu Chang'an didn't mind spitting a few more times... This is probably what they call spitting out fragrant words.
"You... you think that... that I'll be bought off by you?" Liu Yuewang stubbornly persisted. Was she really that easy to fool?
She traveled a long way, taking an overnight train—a type of old-fashioned green train she hadn't ridden in a long time—in Liu Yuewang had suffered quite a bit already. He thought he could get rid of her after all this time? No way.
"Mom, you're stuttering." An Nuan understood Professor Liu quite well.
"I haven't settled accounts with you yet, and you think this is over?" Professor Liu, having finished his water, immediately stood up, his imposing manner returning.
Liu Chang'an poured another glass of water and placed it on the coffee table in front of Liu Yuewang.
Liu Yuewang stubbornly stared at Liu Chang'an, refusing to let her eyes drift towards the glass of water... Liu Chang'an hadn't mentioned any nutrients in the water... Right, these nutrients could even repair skin damaged from a long journey, so drinking more would surely make her skin even better, wouldn't it?
Liu Yuewang's hand trembled, and she quickly grabbed it. Oh my god, her hand was out of control! This... this had nothing to do with her! She was still angry and hadn't been coaxed into being happy.
"Look at An Nuan." Liu Chang'an noticed that Liu Yuewang had calmed down a lot, and gestured for her to observe her closely. She would then discover that the beautiful girl had changed a lot.
Liu Yuewang glanced at it casually, then jumped in surprise. Who was this beautiful girl whose skin seemed to glow from every inch? That skin... good heavens, how could someone have such flawless skin? Even she couldn't compare! How could this be?
Ah?
How could that be?
"I want to do that too." Liu Yuewang stared blankly for a moment with her mouth agape, then immediately pointed at An Nuan and said to Liu Chang'an.
An Nuan hadn't looked in the mirror since waking up that morning, puzzled by Liu Yuewang's reaction. She had always been the object of Liu Yuewang's disdain and attacks; how had she now become the standard Professor Liu expected of her?
