Chapter 360: Perverted weird old man (3)
After An Qi said that, the others standing around them chimed in as well. “Yes, yes. We are curious too. The person you said looked like An Yue, what kind of person is she?”
“She…”The old master did not expect that someone would ask him for more information. Now, this was great, he was trapped.
However, he quickly made something up. He raised his head forty-five degrees and put on a sad expression. “Alas… If I could, of course, I would be very willing to bring her to meet with you guys, but unfortunately, she died many years ago. When I saw the little girl, I thought I was imagining it, as I saw her younger self…”
When the old master was saying that, his face was full of yearning and sadness. If Zhao Youlin had not already known the true purpose of the old master’s visit, even she would have been fooled by this guy who loved to act!
The old master’s acting was so realistic that everyone except Zhao Youlin basically believed him, including An Qi.
“I am sorry, I did not know…” There was a helpless expression on An Qi’s face. She was more or less feeling guilty for the fact that she had unintentionally poked someone else’s sore spot.
The old master heaved a sigh. He put on a tough smile that looked like he was trying to restrain his pain and said strugglingly, “It’s fine. It’s not your fault.”
Zhao Youlin was speechless. “…”
The corner of Zhao Youlin’s mouth twitched. She really could not bear to stand that anymore, so she quickly took the initiative to change the topic. She coughed lightly. “Grandpa, you came so suddenly today, is there anything you need?”
After saying that, she also cast a warning look toward the old man, signaling him not to go too far.
The old master was choked. Then, he put on an expression of realization. “Look at me. I am getting too old and my memory is not good anymore. I came here today to bring some pastries back to Joy. Joy has been telling me that the pastries made by the sisters in Youlin’s store were even better than the ones made at home, so I thought I would come over to try them and see if they were really as good as he said they were, and bring some back to him. I did not expect to meet a child who resembled my late friend in the store. This is fate indeed.”
When Zhao Youlin heard the word fate, she once again could not help but think the old master was cunning. Even at this moment, he still did not forget trying to get closer to An Yue. He was an old fox indeed!
The few girls immediately shifted their attention when they heard the old master bring up Joy. They started to chat with the old master.
“So you are actually here for Joy. No wonder. Speaking of which, it has been a while since Joy came to the store. We are starting to miss him a little.”
“That’s right. When Joy came last time, I did not even get to hug him. I have been waiting for him to come again so that I can give him a hug. Kids growing up fast. The last time I saw Joy, he had grown up so much. If this keeps going, I don’t even know if I can still carry him in my arms next time.” *Sigh
“Well, I think Joy seemed like he had lost a little bit of weight when he came last time. Although he has become taller, he did not grow heavier when I carried him in my arms last time. It’s probably because it was too hot in the summer, he had no appetite to eat more.”
“That’s right. That’s right. We have to let you take more pastries back for Joy. Yes, I remember when Joy came before, he said he loved Sister An Yue’s almond pastry.”
“And Sister An Qi’s mango cake.”
“Yes, yes, yes…And the strawberry pancake. Joy loves it too.”
“Joy also likes watermelon juice. Pear juice. We will prepare them and let you bring them home to him later.”
“…”
The girls noisily discussed the matter of Joy, instantly putting behind all the presuppositions and embarrassment they had not long ago with the old master.
Zhao Youlin watched from afar as the old master took advantage of Joy and got closer to the girls instantly. And, he even shamelessly tried to ask for more details of An Yue’s background and information in a subtle way during his conversation with the girls.
He managed to gain some basic understanding of the girl’s background within 20 minutes, including her family and her hobbies.
He even brought up Han Yichen in the end, which made one speculate if it was intentional or unintentional. He purposely brought up the ‘big brother’, who Joy said that it had been a long time since he last saw him in the store, to test the girls’ reaction.
What he said made An Yue blush all over, wishing that she could become invisible and escape from the teasing gazes projected on her from the others standing around her.
The corner of Zhao Youlin’s mouth finally could not help but twitch again. She rolled her eyes and decisively chose to turn a blind eye to this.
The girls finally finished preparing the food and handed it to the old master, which felt like a long time to her. Then, Zhao Youlin immediately took the old master out of the store and got into her own car.
Zhao Youlin heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she turned toward the old master and wanted to settle a score with him. “Grandpa, do you remember what you promised me?”
The old master looked at Zhao Youlin’s gloomy face and smiled guiltily. “Well, it’s not like anything happened, right? Besides, I have even got to bond with my future granddaughter-in-law earlier. This is actually good for us, isn’t it? If your brother comes up with various excuses and chooses not to reunite with us, at least the future granddaughter-in-law will help to convince him. Maybe he would change his mind and reunite with us, right?”
“So that’s what you were really after.”
The old master coughed. “I’m just worried that something out of expectation might happen. Well, in fact, I was also a little curious about her. After all, she may become part of our family in the future. Even though you have repeatedly assured me she is a good person, if I didn’t see her with my own eyes, I would still feel a little…”
Zhao Youlin was stunned a little upon hearing the old master’s words. She finally let the matter go after saying nothing for quite a while. She said, “So what do you think about her after you met her? Xiao Yue…”
“That girl is okay.” Before Zhao Youlin could finish, the old master had interrupted her first. He smiled and said, “Actually, I am not an old-fashioned man who cares so much about the background. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have married your grandmother back then, and strongly objected to you being together with Mu Tingfeng. Children need to live their own lives. The person you want to marry, as long as his or her character is good. I have nothing more to ask of them. It’s fine for me as long as you are happy.”
Zhao Youlin could not help but feel touched when she heard this. She called out in a low voice, “Grandpa…”
“And of course, the most important thing is that my grandson has good taste. Look at that little girl, not only is she pretty, her cooking skill is also very good, but she is just a little shy. But it does not matter. Once she marries into our family, we will ask your mother to groom her, we can definitely change her habit.”
“…” She had seen someone who was being shameless, but she had never seen anyone being shameless to such an extent!
At this moment, they did not even know where his grandson was hiding. They did not even know if he would want to reunite with them after he learned the truth. And he had actually started to plan how to bring his granddaughter-in-law home and groom her. Grandpa, are you sure you are not going too far already?
