“Oh, come and save me! I’m about to be beaten to death!”
“Grandpa, I’m coming! Stand behind me!”
In the room, the grandfather and grandson were having a great time playing vigorously. Zhao Yan listened outside the door for a while, waiting for their voices to lower before raising his hand to knock on the door.
Mei Yan hurried over to open the door, letting him put everything from the tray in his hand on the table. Then he hurried back to the game console, “Grandpa, press start quickly!”
“Which button is that?” The old man was feeling a bit dizzy now, but the smile on his lips never faded.
Mei Yan leaned over and helped him press the button on the controller, looking puzzled, “Grandpa, didn’t you say you were good at playing video games?”
Lu Ting felt a bit embarrassed and instinctively defended himself, “That was when I was young. It’s just been too many years since I played, so my hands are a bit rusty. Let me practice again, and I’ll definitely help you win!”
Mei Yan was skeptical but still sat up straight. The two of them started another round of game battles.
When Mei Shu returned in the evening, Lu Ting had already left as usual.
Mei Yan stretched lazily and said cutely to her, “Sister, I’ve been playing with Grandpa all day. Did I behave well?”
Mei Shu affectionately flicked his forehead, “Are you behaving well for Grandpa Su? I see you just wanted to play yourself! You’re not allowed to do this tomorrow!”
“Oh, 1 got it.” Mei Yan pouted, rubbing his forehead as if Mei Shu’s flick hurt so much.
But in reality, Mei Shu hadn’t used any force at all.
The siblings chatted on the sofa for a while before Mei Yan watched Mei Shu go upstairs. As soon as she left, he immediately took out his phone and sent a message to the old man waiting on the other side, “Oops, Sister scolded me. 1 have to study first tomorrow before 1 can play!”
After sending the message, he put down his phone and didn’t even wait to eat another pastry. Suddenly, there was a light ding next to him.
Mei Yan quickly picked up his phone to look.
On the screen, there was a big smiling face in the chat box below a line of text, “You should listen to your sister. Tomorrow, I’ll teach you to finish your homework first, and then we can play without worries!”
Mei Yan quickly replied with an “Okay” and then put down his phone, happily heading to his room for a shower.
The next day, Lu Ting came again while Mei Shu was not at home.
Zhao Yan was already used to it and prepared breakfast according to the old man’s taste.
Mei Yan had already become familiar with him, and there was no trace of his initial restraint in his speech. They seemed like close friends.
He was chewing on a meat bun when he caught sight of the old man’s thoughtful expression. He asked somewhat surprised, “Grandpa, why aren’t you eating?”
Lu Ting put down the bun, leaned in mysteriously, and whispered to his ear, “I want to ask, when does your sister usually cook by herself?”
Mei Yan didn’t expect him to care about this, but considering that he might be asking for the sake of his grandson, he smiled and said, “My sister rarely cooks, but as long as it’s something I want to eat, she’s willing to cook for me anytime. By the way, my sister’s cooking is delicious!”
Lu Ting certainly knew this secret. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been missing the food Mei Shu made for so long.
He pursed his lips, his voice lowering a bit more, “Can you ask your sister to cook something delicious for you tonight, and then save some for me? I’ll come over tomorrow morning to eat.”
Mei Yan blinked in confusion, “If you want to eat, just tell my sister directly.
She should be willing to cook for you.”
“What do you mean?” Lu Ting’s eyes lit up. Did this kid know his identity?
Does saying this now mean that Mei Shu isn’t actually angry with him?
Before he could figure out a reason, Mei Yan said as a matter of fact, “Because my sister already knows about you here. She reminded me to take good care of you.”
Lu Ting was suddenly excited, “Did your sister really say that?”
Mei Yan nodded earnestly, “Yes, 1 don’t need to lie to you about such trivial matters. So if you really want to eat my sister’s cooking, you can tell her yourself. Then you won’t have to eat my leftovers.”
Lu Ting rubbed his hands expectantly, his face flushing a bit, “Can you help me ask tonight? I’ll definitely come tomorrow!”
“Sure!” Mei Yan readily agreed.
The grandfather and grandson agreed on everything.
Lu Ting was about to take the kid upstairs to play some games again when his phone rang unexpectedly.
He answered the call, said only one sentence, and his face darkened. After hurriedly hanging up, he stood up in a hurry.
Mei Yan instinctively felt that something big had happened and quickly stood up, asking, “Grandpa, what’s wrong?”
Lu Ting said guiltily, “Yanyan, Grandpa suddenly has something on at home and can’t accompany you today, but don’t forget our agreement!”
Mei Yan stuck out his pinky and handed it to him. “Let’s make a pinky promise.. I promise I won’t go back on my word!”
