C394 Tell Me the Truth(2)
"Dad, didn't I want you to worry?" Hsu Rann held Xu Dazhu's hand and said with some emotion, "To be able to survive this time, I was really lucky. If the two of us don't come back, I'm afraid we will be treated as missing persons again. "
"Yes. We only managed to survive after nine deaths. Uncle is right. In the future, when such a thing happens, we must not be too impatient. You must think about it before you act. " Fann Binn thought of the scene when he jumped off the cliff that day and sighed. He smiled helplessly and bitterly. " This matter was also a lesson, and he had to pay more attention to it in the future. Children all know the principle of having more people and more strength, but they always forget about it "
Xu Dazhu sighed," Alright, let's not talk about those sad things. I believe that the heavens are kind. At least you survived with determination, but that Tan Shitong was finished in the end. All of this is fate. Bad people will never be able to compete with good people! Let's go. Go home, Fann Binn. I want to have a good drink with you! "
" Huh? " When Fann Binn heard the sound of drinking, his head started to hurt again. At this time, Hsu Rann remembered the night when Fann Binn was drunk, and her face could not help but feel shy.
"Come, come. To celebrate bringing the Tan father and son to justice, cheers!" Under Xu Dazhu's shout, Fann Binn helplessly raised his glass and clinked glasses with Hsu Rann's relatives at the table. He frowned and drank all the white rice wine that his family brewed.
After everyone finished drinking, they sat down without making any sound. The smiles on everyone's faces, which should have been filled with smiles, were not hung at this moment. This atmosphere was very oppressive and somewhat depressing.
It was not why, because after Hsu Rann's relatives knew the truth, they all missed her second uncle who was drowned in the mine. After all, they were relatives and brothers. His death was still somewhat painful for Old Xu's family.
"Don't just sit there and not say anything. Today is a happy day." Xu Dazhu smiled awkwardly and said with a bitter expression, "If Fourth Brother knew that the people who harmed him were arrested by Fann Binn, he would be very happy."
Hearing Xu Dazhu's words, Jin Mei'e, who was sitting beside him, hurriedly pulled his arm and glared at him. She then glanced at Fann Binn and Hsu Rann and said in a low voice, "You should be happy today. Don't be too sad."
"Yes, yes, today is a joyous day. Come, let's drink more and eat more food." Xu Dazhu forced a smile and took the initiative to pick some food for Fann Binn. "Your body is thin and weak. Eat more to grow better."
Fann Binn could not help but laugh and cry when he heard that. His figure was the most standard. Not to mention other skills, five strong men could easily knock him down. Why did it make him fat for no reason?
"Dad, you should eat more. Do you want to make Fann Binn fat?" Hsu Rann saw that Xu Dazhu had picked up a large piece of fat braised pork and could not help but urgently say. " He doesn't like to eat meat, and you keep picking it up from his bowl."
"Hehehe..." Hsu Rann's words caused the atmosphere at the dining table to finally ease up a little, and laughter also gradually came out. But it was very obvious that everyone was forcing a smile.
"Fine, this daughter, if she marries, she will be splashed with water. She hasn't even married yet, yet she's already thinking for her man. You're shameless too. " Xu Dazhu jokingly glared at Hsu Rann and said discontentedly, " How could Fann Binn not eat the meat his father picked up?"
Hsu Rann's pretty face quickly turned red. Fann Binn could not stand Xu Dazhu's enthusiasm. He hurriedly nodded and said, "Eat, of course I want to eat it. This is the dish Uncle gave me. How can I not eat it?"
"That's more like it. Don't listen to women's words. That's what women think." Fann Binn's words made Xu Dazhu feel very comfortable. The smile on his face also started to become natural.
When Jin Mei'e heard Xu Dazhu's words, she became slightly unhappy. She frowned and said. “ How could she say that? Your daughter is still the eldest daughter. When did she become a woman? She and Fann Binn haven't even gotten married yet, and you have already said that. If they are getting married, won't they have no say in marriage?"
" This... " Xu Dazhu was choked by Jin Meier's question for a long time. He didn't say anything, causing the relatives sitting next to him to laugh and wink at each other. They obviously looked like they were watching a show.
At this moment, Big Uncle finally spoke up, "Alright, alright. I say, are the two of you done yet? The marriage between Mr. Fann and Niuniu was already set in stone. Isn't it the same as getting married now that they aren't married? Mr. Fann, do you think I'm right?"
Fann Binn faced his uncle and smiled awkwardly. He just didn't know if he should answer or not. He looked at Hsu Rann, who was sitting beside him. He didn't know what she was thinking with her head down. He couldn't help but sigh helplessly. That night in the cave, she had really slept too much of her troubles... Right now, he really did not know if he should tell the truth.
When Xu Dazhu saw that Fann Binn didn't continue his uncle's words, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. At this time, he could clearly see the abnormal behavior of Fann Binn and Hsu Rann. He couldn't help but ask curiously. "Niuniu, what's the matter? You two... are having an argument?"
"No... Dad, we, we're fine, very good." Hsu Rann looked up at her father and mustered up her courage to open her mouth. After a while, she said, "Actually, I... I have something I want to tell you..."
"What is it? If there is something you want to say, just say it. Why are you stuttering?" When Xu Dazhu saw Hsu Rann's hesitant look, he gradually felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart. He looked at Fann Binn with a frown and asked, "Is it something between the two of you?"
Fann Binn was embarrassed and did not know how to face Hsu Rann's father's questioning gaze. He could only lower his face and eat the dishes in the bowl. The atmosphere on the dining table, which had gradually calmed down, gradually became a little strange. Fann Binn understood in his heart. This time, Hsu Rann really wanted to say out the relationship between the two of them.
"Dad, Mom, before I tell you about the matter, I hope you don't be surprised and don't get angry. The reason why Fann Binn and I did this was all because of my idea. I also know the consequences of lying to you, but I have my own values and values. I don't want to be controlled by anyone and give up my dreams and life that I pursue..."
Hsu Rann's voice trembled slightly as she spoke until this point. Her small face turned red. Clearly, she was very nervous and afraid at this moment. However, from her firm gaze, one could see that she had at least made up her mind.
Fann Binn smiled bitterly and shook his head lightly. Actually, he originally wanted to tell the truth more than Hsu Rann. But because of the relationship between the two in the cave, it made it obvious that he wanted to retreat. Now that Hsu Rann opened her mouth, he felt that the guilt in his heart had become deeper.
Under the gaze of all the relatives of the old Xu family at the dining table, Hsu Rann clenched her fist and said through gritted teeth, "Father, Mother, actually Fann Binn and I... are just ordinary friends."
"Clang..." As soon as Hsu Rann's words left her mouth, everyone in the room was immediately stunned. Their mouths were wide open but they were unable to make any sound. The scene was completely silent. Only the sound of the chopsticks that fell onto the table after Xu Dazhu's palm lightly trembled could be heard...
"Bang!" After a very short moment, Hsu Rann's elder brother Xu Wei slammed the table. He angrily stood up from the chair and pointed at her as he angrily shouted, "Third Sister! What kind of joke are you joking about? You can't play with this kind of thing!"
"Brother, I'm not joking. Indeed, I lied to Dad and you guys earlier. But that was under circumstances where I had no choice..." Hsu Rann's beautiful eyes quickly became confused as she sobbed. " I like that city in Jiangde. I'm used to living in the city. I want to take root in the big city through my own efforts and become successful in the big city. I want to have a happy life. This is my dream, and also my motivation to live. I don't want to be forced to return to Tan Fang because of marriage, so I lied to you. I actually hired Fann Binn to pretend to be my boyfriend."
"Niuniu... You, you and Fann Binn really... Are you really a fake boyfriend and girlfriend? " Jin Mei'e looked at Hsu Rann in shock and shook her head," Impossible, you and Fann Binn are fake. Then why did you stay in the same room with Fann Binn when he was drunk?"
Hearing Jin Mei'e say this, Fann Binn suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Hsu Rann randomly replied, "Mom, didn't you want to stay in the same room because you don't want to be exposed? Don't worry, I slept on the floor that night, and Fann Binn slept on the bed. "
"How could this be..." Liu, Xu Lan, stared at Fann Binn in confusion, and asked, "Fann Binn, you said you sent Tan You Lin to prison, how could you not like my sister?"
"This..." Fann Binn really did not know how to say it. To him, at this moment, it was as if he was sitting on pins and needles. The questioning and puzzled gazes of the Xu family members in front of him swept over. He felt as if he was sitting in the interrogation room of the police station as a criminal. Be frank and lenient, resist and be lenient?
"Second Brother! Don't you understand what I'm saying? It was I who asked Fann Binn to pretend to be my boyfriend. I wanted him to help get rid of the problem of the Tan father and son. Now that the Tan family has fallen, Tan Fang Town is peaceful, and no one is forcing the marriage anymore. Now is the best time to reveal my relationship with Fann Binn." Hsu Rann cleverly defended Fann Binn. It was obvious that she was holding everything in her hands. She was deliberately helping Fann Binn share the huge pressure around the table.
"But Third Sister, I don't understand, why..."
"Enough!" Just as Big Brother Xu Wei was about to say something, Xu Dazhu suddenly shouted, causing the entire room to quiet down once again. There was no expression on his aged face. His gaze only stopped on Fann Binn. He asked solemnly, "Mr. Fann, so it turns out that my daughter has been troubling you until now. I'm really sorry. My daughter is insensible and caused me to be kept in the dark. She even let Mr. Fann take the risk to deal with the Tan father and son. It's really my fault. "
"Uncle, please don't say that. Miss Hsu Rann and I have a very good relationship. As her fake boyfriend, I also want her not to marry a bastard like Tan Youlin." Fann Binn hurriedly shook his head and said, "But I have troubled everyone for so many days. I really feel bad."
