Can't Let Go novel Chapter 213

“Nancy...” Laura, sitting beside her, reached out her hand and touched hers, saying, “What’s the matter? Is everything okay?”

Nancy Xi took a glance at those who cast a concerned look at her. And she turned furious when she noticed the sinner was having his dinner leisurely by the table.

“Well, I’m fine, I just bit my tongue...” She gave an awkward smile and tapped Laura’s hand to show that she’s okay.

Then she slowly sat down.

Apparently, she moved the chair a little bit backward.

“Aunt, you’re really good at cooking! You eat more, you’re too thin.” Laura took some food to her and beamed.

On seeing her lovely smiley face, Nancy Xi ‘s rage faded away.

But she was still bearing extremely hatred toward the man sitting right in front of her.

“Okay. You, you also have more.” After Nancy was given a fried chicken leg, she started to chew some with her head lowered.

Nancy’s parents were really fond of Laura that they chatted with her all the time during the meal.

Besides, her mother really felt sorry for her because of her past.

40 minutes later.

The dinner was over.

“It’s still early for you to go to bed. You two sweethearts have a rest and I’ll prepare some dessert for you.” Nancy’s mother smiled and headed to the kitchen.

“Aunt, well, I’m full.” Laura hurried to say with her eyebrows slightly twisted.

For her belly was stuffed with food that there was no room for extra sweets or drinks.

Nancy Xi took her hand and traipsed to the garden with Laura, “That’s okay. You can bring what you can’t have home. My mother seldom makes desserts, which will be incredibly delicious if prepared by her.

Laura held Nancy’s arm and giggled, “Wow, Nancy, that’s awesome! I’ve never tasted my mother’s food.”

“Just come to my home when you wanna have a bite of home－made dishes. See, my mother is really fond of you!” Nancy Xi was glad that her mom liked Laura, which meant that this was a true friend of hers.

Laura’s face flushed.

Nancy Xi led her and they both sat on the hammock.

Both of them looked up at the night sky.

The full moon was stunning beautiful tonight, which was like beaming silently to them from above.

“Nancy, do you think there’s really a goddess of the moon?”

Nancy stared at the moon, pondered for a while and replied, “I guess there is.”

“But why she didn’t allow Hou Yi to become a celestial being? Is she happy to be immortal when her lover is not around?” She looked to Nancy and asked. (Hou Yi： a celestial archer in ancient Chinese legend.)

Nancy Xi was suddenly stuck.

Then she moved her lips and slowly replied, “If it was me, I would wanna be a celestial being.”

“Ah?” Laura was greatly surprised, “Why? Don’t you wanna have a man who you love? Why you have to be all alone?”

Nancy Xi chuckled and pitched her soft cheek, “Little fool, you can’t have the best of the both worlds, okay? I don’t have more desire in this life, so I only wish I could get away like the goddess of the moon.”

It was her dream to leave this place and this devious man.

“Well, well, well.” out of a sudden, someone was snorting from their behind, “My dear sister, where are you going?”

Laura was stuck that she looked back terrified and she spotted that Walter Nan was walking toward them.

Nancy was then all as petrified as a statue.

“Brother!” Laura stood up and exclaimed.

Walter Nan didn’t response her but looked to Nancy Xi with a strange sneer, saying, “Nancy, where are you going?”

Nancy was scared to death after being enquired like this.

she stood up slowly with her lips twitched for a moment. Then she cast a glance at his unpredictable face and smiled awkwardly, “Well... I, I and Laura were talking about college... like what are we are going do after graduation... I mean, I’ll grow up one day! I’ll leave and live my own life sooner or later!”

“Yeah, that’s right. You’re going to leave this family after you get married!” Laura held Nancy’s hand and slightly giggled for didn’t read this different atmosphere right now.

“Get married?” Walter Nan frowned and repeated these two words again.

“Of course, after we grow up. We all get married. So, are you, brother? You’re going to have a wife one day!” She uttered in a sweet voice.

“Em!” Walter Nan nodded and replied with one eyebrow raised, “You’re absolutely correct! All men and women will have their partners one day. I do have to consider getting a wife!”

“Really?” Nancy Xi asked without any hesitation,

which betrayed her excitement.

Staring at her sanguine look, he put on even more coldness in his eyes and moved his lips, “You wish me to be married this soon? Um, you’re not the kind of ordinary girls who never want their brothers to married someone for they cannot receive enough love after that. So, you truly resist me caring for you?”

His words were obviously sarcastic.

“You don’t have to.” Nancy Xi hurried to reply him. “It will be a great thing for you to get married. You see, others already have their nieces or nephews, but I haven’t. There’s no need to concern about me, just get married, brother!”

Nancy Xi just failed to belie her intention at this moment.

She put on a slightly beaming face and bore some glints in her previously fishy eyes.

But Laura was a little bit confused.

When she realized what was going on, she thought,

Nancy and her brother really had an intimate relationship!

For the affection they shared had been rooting deeply in their hearts that couldn’t be pretended.

Suddenly, Walter Nan withdrew his smile. What’s worse, a vein was protruding clearly on his forehead.

Nancy was stuck and had no idea how to response. Well...

What, what was this?

Was, was he pissed off?

Did she say something that offend him?

“Miss! Young master! Madame said that the dessert was prepared.”

So, Nancy grabbed Laura’s hand and dashed toward the dining room, “Here we come! Here we come!”

——————

“Miss Su, someone is here to pick you home.” A maid came in and said.

“Em? Okay!” Laura picked up her things, stood up and took a bow, “Thank you! The food was really delicious! I had a great day!”

“Well, you’re welcome! You know what? I really like you. Come here anytime you like!” Nancy’s mother held her hand and didn’t feel like letting her go.

“Yeah, you can just come here anytime you want. You’re always welcomed.” Nancy’s father added.

Nancy held Laura’s shoulder and said gaily to her parents, “Definitely, I’ll always invite her here. She’s my best friend.”

Laura beamed and stared at her, “You’re my best friend ever!”

Nancy grinned, “Mom, Dad, you may stay here. I’ll just see her to the gate.”

“Laura, come here again.”

“Yeah, I’ll!” Laura thanked them again and left with Nancy.

However, when they reached the garden, they came across a guy.

“Leaving?” Walter Nan politely smiled to Laura.

“Yep, well, I’m going home. You see... Nancy, you may stop here, my car is over there.” She pointed at the car outside the gate.

Nancy cast a glance at Walter Nan and she couldn’t help quivering, “That’s okay. But let me walk you to the car for I don’t have much to do right now. Let’s go!”

“You really don’t have to. There’s no need to. There’re only a few steps away. Just come back. You must be really tired today!” Laura replied as she concerned about her friend.

“I, I’m fine. Actually... Let me walk you there.”

For Nancy only wanted to stay away from Walter Nan right now.

“Now that Laura has said this, you don’t have to insist.” Walter Nan said in a calm voice, “If you’re not feeling well, you can check our flower at the back garden.”

“No!” Nancy turned him down directly without a second thought.

Laura was really stuck by this sudden exclamation of Nancy’s.

“Seriously? Are you sure?” Walter Nan moved his hand－－which was on her shoulder－－to the place where her bra buckle was under her shirt...

While Nancy was really stuck that she gazed at Walter Nan in great astonishment－－“What, what he’s up to?”

“Come with me... to the garden, okay?” He smiled with his head lowered as if there was a demon underneath his skin.

Nancy didn’t say anything for she felt very terrified that his hand was traipsing on her back.

If...

If she refused...

This psycho would unbuckle her bra in front of her friend...

When...

“Okay, brother.” Nancy constrainedly squeezed a fake smile.

“Well, goodbye! See you later!” Laura waved her hand and ran to her car.

Walter Nan embraced her shoulder and whispered in a low voice to her, “Just go! Brother, let’s go seeing these flowers!”

————

“Oops! Uncle Huo, why are you here?” Laura saw the guy as she popped into the car.

“I just stopped by after my work.”

Laura beamed sweetly, “See, Nancy’s mom gave me so many desserts. Really yummy!”

Debra Huo couldn’t help reaching out to rub her hair on seeing her lovely smiley face. His fatigue seemed to be dissolved in her pleasing affection.

“Let’s go.” Debra Huo told the driver after taking her hand.

“Yes, sir!”

“Sir, wait a minute!” When the car was about to drive off, Laura called the driver.

Debra Huo looked at her with one eyebrow raised.

“My backpack was forgotten in Nancy’s room. Wait a minute!”

On saying this, she just jumped out of the vehicle, “Uncle Huo, please wait here. Nancy’s at the garden. I just come to her and will be here very soon.”

After ping these words, she dashed to the garden.

Laura didn’t enter the house but rushed to the garden instead.

They shouldn’t be far as Nancy’s brother had asked her to check their flowers just now.

Laura was stuck as she opened her mouth to yell her name.

Nancy’s not afraid of anything so Laura was to scare her this time.

The girl moved toward the back garden on thinking of it.

“Walter Nan, you’re insane!”

The voice was very familiar even though it was heard from a distance.

Laura frowned and wondered what it was.

So, she speeded up to figure out what was going on.

“You wanna me get married?”

“You wanna leave me?”

“Psycho! You’re perverted! Just back off!”

Laura rushed around the wall with her eyebrows twisted, but, then she was frozen.

Right over the dark corner, Walter Nan stood there with his back turned to her and these trousers fallen down to his ankles.

And Nancy Xi was in front of him with her back against the guy. But...

she was stripped to the waist.

What they were engaging right now...

was the fact of life!

“Ah———”

A familiar but painful scream was given out.

Laura was about to shout out loud that her pupils were enlarged, and her mouth was wide open.

However, her mouth was capped by a big hand.

She looked back in a panic. The man behind her quickly turned her around and embraced her in his arms. A low voice echoed above, “Don’t watch!”
