Waited and waited, hoped and hoped, but still no sight of his little sister returning. Liu Shouren regretted his momentary softness in letting Lianshan accompany her for the shopping trip.
Why give the chance to bond, talk about feelings?
Sending the sheep into the tiger's mouth, really!
It's frustrating that he's unfamiliar with this provincial city, afraid that he'd take a wrong turn and not only fail to find them but also worry his little sister. He could only linger at the guesthouse entrance hoping to spot her return as quickly as possible. His heart angrily resolved that once Lianshan returned, he would definitely put on the authoritative air of an elder brother-in-law and give him a thorough scolding. Taking liberties to vanish for half a day just because he was asked to accompany his little sister for a stroll?
Doesn't he know that his little sister is now pregnant, least able to endure exhausting trips!
