Chapter name: 181 I’d rather you weren’t

Mint saw the atmosphere drop instantly and immediately stood up. Zhan Yifan immediately held Dean Jason's shoulders and shook his head gently with a tacit understanding.%&*";

Mint glanced at everyone and said, "Uncle, you can eat longevity noodles. Chuner, cut the cake and give it to everyone."

"Oh..." Chun'er took the knife back and prepared to cut the cake. The old uncle saw that the atmosphere seemed to have completely changed because of Jason, and his face changed slightly, and he seemed a little unhappy.

"Uncle, it's okay." Mint comforted his uncle, then turned around and followed the direction where Bai He disappeared.

After finding Bai He in the pavilion, looking at his mother's lonely and sad back, Mint walked over slowly, gently held her mother's shoulders with both hands and whispered: "Mom, are you okay?"

Bai He looked up. Because there was an antique chandelier in the pavilion, he could clearly see the worry on Mint's face.

Only then did Bai He realize that she was impulsive. She had never been like this, but Jason's words just now... really made her unable to hide in front of her relatives. She had already agreed when she came that she wanted to control his words and deeds.

Talk nonsense, their home is not that open...

"Mom." Mint sat down and gently held Bai He's hand, "Are you still angry with Dean Jason?"

Bai He shook her head, but Mint knew that she was shaking her head against her will, as her eyebrows were frowning, full of displeasure.

"Mom, Jason is just taking the initiative, but others are very kind. I believe you have seen it, right?"

"He'er, if others don't treat you well, you have to give it all back to others, right? If that's the case, life will be so tiring." Bai He sighed leisurely, looking ahead and not knowing what he was thinking.

What.

"But, does this person who is kind to you treat you the same way as other people? Can you be moved by this kindness and change your mind? Some people are just kind.

There is a kind of magic that can make you change your original intention, or even change your whole heart. Isn't it?"

Mint didn't know what she was talking about, but she knew that Jason meant no harm, and her mother didn't really hate Jason. If she did, she wouldn't have brought him to China.

Bai He didn't speak, just lowered his head.

"Some people, if you miss it, maybe you will be together for the rest of your life. Will there be people who are so kind to you in the future? If you think of such a question, it means that you have thoughts in your heart. When I first got along with Yifan,

I often think, is there any other man in this life who treats me so well? If I miss him, I will definitely regret it.

And, there is a possibility of happiness in this life. Mom, I really hope you are happy. But if Jason brings trouble to you, if you really don’t like him being so straightforward with you, you

You can tell me that Yifan and I can transfer you to other places in the UK. There are many, many excellent nursing homes..."

"No need." Bai He suddenly held Mint's hand tightly. Mint looked at her with a slight smile, but she avoided Mint's direct gaze, "I know what you mean, but I really don't dare to think about this. I'm very happy.

If you can meet Yifan, I also believe that he can give you a lifetime of happiness, but my mother is timid. She knows that he is good to her, but she still has neither the courage nor the qualifications. The rest... everything is fine. My health is good.

It didn’t take long and I got used to it, so there was no need to change places.”

Mint nodded: "If you think it's good, then that's fine. Let's go back. Uncle and the others should worry about it." Mint reached out to help Bai He up. Bai He took a deep breath and followed Mint back to the hall.

After returning, no one asked Mint or Bai He. The uncle brought the cake to Bai He and said, "Eat it. Your daughter made it. It tastes good."

"It's very fresh." My aunt looked at the mint and commented with a smile.

Chun'er just buried her head in eating, while Jason looked at her mother next to her sadly. Mint turned her eyes away slightly, she thought... it was very necessary for her to talk to Jason this time.

Mint lowered her head, and Zhan Yifan pushed the cake in front of her: "I know you are tired of eating it in the past two days, but you want to eat some more tonight."

Mint nodded, picked up a small spoon and ate it. The taste was indeed very fresh, more delicious than the previous times. But I don't know what happened. Did you eat too much tonight? Or in the past few days.

She ate so much cake that she had no appetite, and she felt vaguely like... vomiting?

He reluctantly ate a few mouthfuls and pushed Mint aside without anyone looking at him. Kazuyu already wanted to sleep, so he consciously walked to Mint's side, took Mint's arm and leaned into her arms, closing his eyes and falling asleep.

Bai He looked at Kazuyu relying on Mint and sighed: "It seems that he has become more dependent on you in his heart."

Mint smiled slightly: "Is mom jealous?"

"Of course not. I am happier than anyone else to see you siblings doing so well." Bai He smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to touch Kazuyu's head and pulled him over: "Kayuyu, can mommy put you to sleep today?"

Kazuyu rubbed his eyes and looked at Mint, who immediately comforted him: "Sleep with mom. My sister still has something to do, okay?"

Kazuyu nodded and tilted his head towards Bai He's arms. Mint looked at Jason, who had been looking gloomy, stood up, walked over gently and whispered without anyone noticing: "Dean Jason,

Let’s talk.”

"Of course." Dean Jason whispered back and stood up. Mint turned around and walked out first, and then Jason followed her step by step to the pavilion.

"Sit down." Mint sat down first. Unlike standing talking to this tall man, she was not tired with her neck raised.

Jason sat down quietly, and Mint said straight to the point: "I think... you really like my mother?"

"Yes." Jason has always been a direct person, so he answered without any subtlety.

"As far as I know, you have been single for more than 20 years since you divorced your ex-wife?"

"Yes. I always thought that I would never meet a woman who moved my heart again in this life, but your mother's gentleness, kindness, and charm all attracted me, even the culture she carried and the tone of her voice

, even one of her expressions can make me obsessed now. You don’t know how much your mother is a woman worthy of a man’s love.”

"But my mother is over fifty years old. Do you think it's okay?"

"Does love depend on age?"

Jason's rhetorical question made Mint smile. This Jason did not disappoint her.

"It's true. So you are willing to give my mother happiness?"

Jason nodded seriously: "I know you are the most important person in her heart. But I will definitely prove to you and show her that I can give her everything she wants. No matter she comes to China in the future

I am willing to live or accompany her to travel around the world."

Jason's English is very fluent, but he maintains the same speed as when talking to Bai He, because he knows that Mint's English is not as fluent as Bai He's. This also shows that he is really a very careful and knowledgeable person.

Gentleman man.

"Then do you know what kind of trouble you are causing my mother now?" Mint must know what Jason is thinking, so that she can determine whether to add fuel to the flames. Regarding this love, her mother is not unmoved.

, otherwise she would not be reluctant to leave that nursing home.

"Yes... I know she refuses to accept me, but I don't know the reason. I know that love cannot be forced. I knew it from the moment she pushed me away and refused to let me kiss her. But... I can't let go.

, I didn’t know that I still have such a side, so indomitable, that even though I am in my fifties, I can still have feelings for her, just like a young man... Love is something you can’t help yourself with.”

Mint looked at Jason, and suddenly felt a little pitiful for him. He was chasing his mother so infatuatedly, but his mother kept retreating, and he didn't even have half of his courage.

"If only my mother could be half as courageous as you."

"What's the meaning?"

"I hope I can still hear you say this in ten years, and I hope I can still see your infatuation in ten years.%&*"; Don't worry, I will help you at the appropriate time, but I hope

Can you please not push her too hard right now? She has her own difficulties and cowardice." The most important thing is to resolve the marriage. If Qian's lawyer still fails next week, then she should take action herself.

I have to... take action myself!

"Does it mean her marriage?" Jason suddenly asked again. Mint was slightly startled because she really didn't expect Jason to know about it! Did his mother tell him?

"How do you know..."

"When she rejected me, she said that she was not divorced yet, but she also said that she wanted to be free, so I will not force her or press her now. I am just too excited today, in front of you

My family members are in a higher mood, maybe because of drinking. But I promise that I will be careful in the future and spend my life to protect her and wait for her."

Because of the night breeze, Jason seemed to be more awake. Mint looked at the British man in his fifties across from him. Perhaps it was because he had lost a marriage, but his behavior moved her more than many young men...

Will this twilight love end well? She was so looking forward to Jason loving his mother. She believed...he would definitely be a good man.

In other families, mothers worry about life-long matters for their daughters, but I didn’t expect that I really worry about life-long matters for my mother. Isn’t the sincerity in this the same?

This in-depth conversation with Jason made Mint feel a lot relieved, so Mint didn't say much goodbye when we parted the next day. At the airport, he sent his mother and Jason to the plane first. Although Kazuyu was very reluctant to part with him, he

Now that he is feeling better again, he can also look at his mother's leaving figure, but he is a little sad.

Mint looked up at Zhan Yifan and raised his eyebrows slightly: "So, when are you leaving?"

Anyway, they have already returned from Baiyang Town, and they have been separated from their mother again. There is nothing she can't bear.

Zhan Yifan put his arm around Mint's shoulders and raised his hand to scratch the bridge of her nose: "Bad guy, do you really expect me to leave as soon as possible?"

Mint pouted: "You have to leave sooner or later anyway." Even so, the taste in his words was indeed very sour.

"Next week." Zhan Yifan paused and said suddenly, "I'll stay with you today, tomorrow and the next three days, and I'll leave on Monday."

So, he has only been back for a week and is leaving again?

Chun'er listened and knew that her uncle was leaving again, but she didn't dare to speak for fear of making her uncle and sister-in-law unhappy at the same time. She could only silently lead Kazuha and Yin behind, and the poor sister-in-law was going to be alone again.

Are you raising two children? Yin is still a teenager. Needless to say, Kazuha, the youngest in the family is unwilling to call her uncle, so she must stand up and often share the burden for her sister-in-law.

Chuner clenched his fists and made up his mind. He looked ahead and was filled with hope. But when he thought of Li Boya Chuner, he was distracted. He always thought of his eyes and back that day, and it is still spinning in his mind to this day...

…

Since it was already evening when we got home, we stayed overnight in the garden in the West District after dinner.

Mint took Kazuyu to bed, but when he came out of Kazuyu's room, he saw Yin waiting for him outside.

"What's wrong?" Mint asked in a low voice, because the word 'something happened' was clearly written on Yin's face.

Yin paused and said, "Mr. Bo... is here."

"Huh?" Mint frowned, "What do you mean?" It's almost ten o'clock, what you mean is...that person is here?
