Chapter 731 - Bye, Grandma
Chapter 731: Bye, Grandma
Song Yiyan could not speak from her crying. She shook her head vigorously and sobbed incoherently. “No, he advanced.”
Ling Sheng frowned, her forehead darkening. Since he advanced, why are you crying? You can just cry for a short while. Look at the other fans in the place. Besides chatting and laughing, some of their faces were dark. No one else was crying so miserably. “It’s good that he advanced. Why are you crying when he has advanced?”
Song Yiyan sniffled. “I… I… I’m happy. I’m… happy for him.”
Ling Sheng actually understood the fans’ minds very well. Just cry then. She did not bother with her anymore. She looked at Nangong Lengyu, who was about to carry her son home. “Auntie Yu, thank you. We’re leaving. You guys should go home too. It’s already this late.”
Nangong Lengyu looked at the crying Song Yiyan and felt helpless. Why was this child so melancholic? She had brought her out. If she did not send her back, she would be worried too. “Aren’t you guys having a gathering?”
Actually, she really wanted to meet the Eight Immortals with Sheng Sheng.
“I don’t know. We have to go backstage to find out. Perhaps the students and coaches are going to have a gathering!” Ling Sheng, who was not sure either, carried her son over.
Xiaoqi said, “Bye, Grandma.”
Upon hearing this, Ling Sheng’s eyes widened abruptly. She smiled a little awkwardly at Nangong Lengyu then looked at her son. “Don’t call her that.”
How had she become his grandma in such a short period of time?
“It’s alright, I got Xiaoqi to call me that.” Nangong Lengyu smiled. “You already call me Auntie. What should he call me? How can he call me Auntie too?”
Ling Sheng thought that even if he did not call her Auntie, calling her Paternal Grandma would be better than calling her Maternal Grandma[1]. What in the world…? She looked at her and sighed, “Auntie Yu.”
“Xiaoqi said I look very much like his grandma.” Nangong Lengyu spoke to her as they walked. “It’s just a name. He can call me anything. I don’t have many rules here.”
Ling Sheng did not know what to say. Not so many rules? Then, if you knew that Xiaoqi calls Huo Ci Maternal Grandpa, would you still be willing to let him call you Maternal Grandma?
Luo Xin held Song Yiyan’s arm and followed behind them. When she saw that the people in front of her were chatting like they were very familiar and intimate with each other, she felt a fire burning in her heart.
For what reason could Ling Sheng easily gain Nangong Lengyu’s favor? What was she doing that was worse than her? Was it because she did not bootlick her?
During this period of time, she kept feeling like no matter what Ling Sheng did, it seemed to be very easy. Even in casual interactions with others, she could gain their approval and fondness very easily.
For example, Movie Queen Nangong and Yanyan. Including today’s encounter, Yanyan had only met her three times, but her attitude showed that she was very concerned about Ling Sheng.
“I accompanied Yanyan over. I knew that she wanted to watch the finals but her father was worried, so I brought her here.” As Nangong Lengyu spoke, she mentioned Song Yiyan.
It turned out that the Nangong Family had a good relationship with the Song Family. They were long-time family friends and all the elders in both families knew one another. According to seniority, she had to call Song Yiyan’s father, Song Jing, Older Brother. Song Yiyan had to call her Aunt.
Ling Sheng briefly introduced her friends to Nangong Lengyu. After that, she kept talking to her in a low voice, “Auntie Yu, I didn’t expect you to chase celebrities too.”
“Luo Luo is really a good child.” Nangong Lengyu didn’t use to chase celebrities. Why would she? However, ever since Si Chengluo had been involved in a scandal with Ling Sheng, she had become interested in the child.
[1] In Chinese, the honorific 奶奶 refers to one’s grandmother from the father’s side of the family while 外婆 refers to one’s grandmother from the mother’s side. By calling Nangong Lengyu 外婆, it also means that she is ‘married’ to 外公, who happens to be Huo Ci.
