Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“You were saying that Xiao Lin saw you picking wild vegetables when she was young and thought that she could eat any kind of gra.s.s,” Yan Ruo replied in a refined manner.
“Oh my, this child is very honest. She often wants to do things all the way once she’s decided on them. Not even ten bulls can pull her away once she gets stubborn.” Granny waved her hand and laughed.
“l think that’s a good thing. She’s determined about what she wants to do and isn’t affected by external factors. It just shows that she’s a pure-minded and opinionated person.” Yan Ruo continued with Granny’s words, making her very happy.
Who would not want to hear others praise the children they raised? Especially when the person who was complimenting her child was likely her future grandson-in-law.
“Granny, what did you talk about?” Bai Lin could not help but ask when she saw that the two of them were actually chatting very well.
“l was telling Xiao Yan about your childhood. What he says is pleasant to hear. I have a great time chatting with him!” Granny happily replied to Bai Lin asked about Yan Ruo’s experience as an actor for so many years.
This time, Bai Lin could not interrupt.
She drank her tea and occasionally picked up a fork to eat a strawberry.
However, she could not help but feel a little jealous when she saw Granny laughing after Yan Ruo said something and the two of them chatting so intimately.
Bai Lin had never brought her friends home before.
For one, she did not have many true friends, and for another, she had already left Granny’s side when she started to have those important people, so she did not have the chance to bring them back to see her.
Now…
She suddenly felt that perhaps it would be a good thing to have someone to help her look after Granny and accompany her when she was not around.
Yan Ruffs family background and status were great. Although the results of the investigation on him had not yet been sent to her, she could tell that he was not a bad person based on the time they had spent together and his att.i.tude toward Granny today.
Bai Lin recalled the heart-to-heart talk they had at the research inst.i.tute. This man had a similar experience to her. His father did not dote on him, and his mother did not love him. However, Yan Ruo had received a good education and enjoyed the perks of coming from a wealthy family. This allowed him to have his own opinions on many things.
After that, Yan Ruo was brought to his grandmother’s side, which helped shape his current personality.
With a similar experience, he might be able to help take care of Granny when she was not around.
According to Bai Lin’s plan, she would basically be half-living in City A. She did not plan to let Granny go back to the countryside.
“Little darling, are you hungry?” Granny saw Bai Lin with her head slightly lowered and half a strawberry in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking.
“I’m hungry! I was already hungry when you guys were chatting so happily!’ Bai Lin immediately took advantage of the situation and acted coquettishly to Granny.
Although she wanted Yan Ruo to help her look after Granny, Granny’s favorite child could only be her!
“Okay, I’ll cook. Xiao Yan, stay and eat with us, okay?” Granny stood up and invited Yan Ruo.
Yan Ruo was more than happy to receive such an invitation. “Alright. Thank you, Granny.”
With that, he stood up and walked to Granny’s side. “I’ll help you out.”
“Aiya, you even know how to cook! Not bad, not bad. Xiao Lin bought some Chinese Toon this morning. I’ll make you two some Chinese Toon scrambled eggs.’
Bai Lin watched as Yan Ruo followed Granny into the kitchen. She suddenly felt as if they had isolated her.
She squeezed herself in also wanting to help, but Granny actually waved her hand and chased her out!
“Aiya, Xiao Yan is enough to help me out. If you come in too, the kitchen will be too crowded. Go to the sofa and eat strawberries.’
Bai Lin stood at the kitchen door and pouted like a poor puppy in the rain.
Yan Ruo turned around and saw Bai Lin showing an expression he had never seen before. She looked even cuter especially with the little flower hair clip on her head.
His heart softened, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
Bai Lin thought that Yan Ruo was mocking her, so she immediately bared her teeth and tried to scare him..
