Chapter 1730: Chapter 1730: If You Like Someone, Act Early
Luo Chen also noticed them: "Gu Xiyan, Lu XiYue, how come you’re taking the bus today too?"
Yanyan waved and greeted him: "Why can’t we take the bus?"
Luo Chen realized there was an issue with his question: "No, isn’t it usually your mom who drives you?"
Yueyue smiled lightly: "My mom has something to do today, besides, taking the bus is quite convenient."
Luo Chen quickly changed the topic: "Where are you headed?"
Yanyan casually replied: "Going back to my Great Grandpa and Great Granny’s place. Where are you off to?"
Luo Chen checked the time: "My sister and her friend went out to play, I’m going to pick her up."
Yanyan turned her head: "Luo Xin sure is lucky, having a brother who dotes on her."
Luo Chen smiled at her: "Aren’t you even luckier, with so many cousins and uncles to protect you, and three brothers with extraordinary strength."
Yueyue glanced back, thinking my sister doesn’t need protection, you haven’t seen her strength, she’s just as good as those three annoying brothers.
Yanyan and Yueyue had to transfer buses and got off halfway.
The sisters didn’t know that people on the bus kept turning their heads to look at them until they were out of sight, only then did they sit back properly.
A young guy next to them said: "Bro, which one caught your eye? If you like her, you’d better make a move quickly, or someone else will snatch her away. Seeing how you were acting just now, I was really worried your neck wouldn’t hold up."
As soon as he finished, everyone around burst into laughter.
But there really was an eager person urging Luo Chen to act if he likes them.
It was too much for Luo Chen, so he got off the bus two stops early, though he wasn’t angry, just a bit shy.
After getting off, he didn’t notice that the guy who teased him also got off, and didn’t forget to run ahead and say: "Bro, good luck."
As the guy ran far ahead, Luo Chen smiled, thinking he’ll have to wait a bit more.

Luo Qiao drove to her sister-in-law’s house, registered upon arrival, and then entered the courtyard, carrying two big watermelons to the door.
Wang Xiaoxin opened the door: "Come on in, we’ve been waiting for you. Oh, you brought watermelons, the fruits you bring are always delicious, so I won’t be polite."
Saying this, she reached out and took one: "It sure is heavy."
Luo Qiao put the things down, washed her hands, and then sat down in the living room: "Did you call me over because there’s good news?"
Wang Xiaoxin came out of the room, holding a few photos in her hand, and handed them over: "You know, if they don’t date, I’m anxious, but Ran Ran’s journey to finding a partner is really not going smoothly.
The person in these photos is her current partner, he’s from the countryside, and it’s not that I look down on rural folks, but this guy has many siblings. I’m just afraid it’ll be one of those situations where the whole family supports a single college student, and he’ll have to take care of the whole family later. My heart’s just all over the place."
Luo Qiao seriously looked at the photos: "If you’re not at ease, we can go check it out ourselves, treat it as a trip."
Wang Xiaoxin clapped her hands: "That’s a good idea, but it’s quite far, it may take several days for a round trip."
Luo Qiao then asked: "Where is he from?"
Wang Xiaoxin sighed: "From a village under Tianshui, but I heard it’s not far from the county town."
Luo Qiao thought for a moment: "If that’s the case, we can go during the National Day holiday."
Wang Xiaoxin laughed: "I’ve been waiting for you to say that, I really haven’t traveled that far before, I’m worried I might lose myself in the process."
Luo Qiao picked up the photos again, looking at them for a while: "However, this young man is quite spirited, as long as his family is good, you shouldn’t stop them. Good people are more important than anything. Besides, they’ll be living in Capital City even if they get married, and will only go back during the holidays. "
Wang Xiaoxin pursed her lips: "I don’t dare to say any opposing words now, I’m just afraid it’ll all fall apart in my hands."
Luo Qiao erupted in laughter: "Sister-in-law, if Ran Ran hears that, she’ll definitely have a fight with you."
Wang Xiaoxin’s face also lit up with a smile: "If she doesn’t get married soon, next year she’ll be twenty-nine, and the next thing you know, she’ll be thirty. Getting married too late means worrying about late pregnancies. As a parent, it’s truly nerve-wracking."
