Seeing Lin Yun leave, the old man wanted to stop him, but for a moment, he didn't know what to say and could only watch Lin Yun leave.

Lin Yun moved very quickly; by the time he thought of what to say, Lin Yun had already gone far away.

"Yanyan, what's wrong with you? Why did you talk like that?" The old man turned around and looked at Li Yan angrily.

“Grandpa, you don’t know, the boy I went on a blind date with yesterday at noon is him…” Li Yan said quickly.

“Yanyan, he’s right. The blind date he arranged for you happened yesterday morning, after I met him…” The old man shook his head and said with great disappointment.

Then, he told Li Yan about what had happened the previous morning.

Yesterday morning, he knelt down before the law enforcement officers for his tricycle. Many people watched, and although many criticized the officers, not a single one actually came to his aid. Lin Yun's help to him was not only financial but also emotional.

However, he did not tell Li Yan about kneeling down to those law enforcement officers.

"Grandpa, you said he gave you three thousand yuan yesterday?" Li Yan asked incredulously.

She was just passing by when she saw what happened, so she casually gave a stranger three thousand yuan. She believed that such things could happen, but she didn't believe that such things would happen in their Xianyuan County. Even more coincidentally, it happened to her grandfather, and the owner was a young man who sold vegetables from a cart.

“Grandpa, it seems I underestimated him. He probably investigated our family situation beforehand. Before he and I went on a blind date, he deliberately followed you, Grandpa, to see if there was anything he could do to leave a good impression. And that's when Grandpa had that incident…” Li Yan paused for a moment, seemingly understanding the reason for the whole thing, and then said.

“Impossible. Yesterday morning, after he gave me three thousand yuan, he didn’t even leave his name. If I hadn’t waited for him at the entrance of the wholesale market, I wouldn’t even remember what he looked like,” the old man said, shaking his head.

“Grandpa, you haven’t been exposed to the outside world and don’t know the complexities of many people. If he did this on purpose, what does it matter if he doesn’t leave his name? As he gets to know me, you’ll meet again sooner or later. At that time, an unintentional discovery might change your impression of him.” Li Yan shook her head and said with great certainty.

“Grandpa, think about it, he’s willing to pull a cart to sell vegetables, so he must not earn much money. He casually gives you three thousand yuan, and he treats me to a meal at a restaurant, spending another two or three thousand yuan. How rich must a person be to do that?”

"By the way, when he went to pay the bill, the cashier at Wangxianlou Restaurant said that he didn't need to pay since he was eating there. You might not know what Wangxianlou is, but it's one of the top restaurants in Xianyuan County. My best friend's boyfriend's family has a high status in Xianyuan County, but they only got a 10% discount card. I've never heard of anyone in Xianyuan County getting a free card. Maybe he arranged it with the cashier at Wangxianlou beforehand. These things might all be part of his scheme..." Seeing that her grandfather was about to say something, Li Yan continued.

She hadn't realized it until she spoke up, and as she did, she discovered that there were many coincidences in the whole affair.

She became even more certain of her guesses.

This further convinced her that Lin Yun was a very scheming boy.

“You don’t understand…” The old man just shook his head.

He talked with Lin Yun the whole way, and his decades of life experience told him that Lin Yun was not that kind of person.

"Grandpa, how can you believe an outsider instead of me? I'm your granddaughter!" Li Yan said angrily when she saw her grandfather being so stubborn.

"Grandpa, your tricycle was confiscated yesterday. Why didn't you tell me? My friend's boyfriend knows some government officials. I'll call and ask around. They should be able to get your tricycle back!" Seeing that her grandfather was also getting a little angry, Li Yan quickly changed the subject.

As they were talking, Li Yan started making a phone call.

“Huihui…” The call connected and Li Yan began to recount the incident.

Less than a minute later, Li Yan hung up the phone, looked at her grandfather, and smiled, "Grandpa, my friend said her boyfriend knows people in this field, and she's asking around for us..."

The old man frowned but didn't say anything.

Just two or three minutes later, Li Yan's phone rang.

"Okay, Huihui, thank you." Li Yan nodded repeatedly as she answered the phone and listened to the voice on the other end.

After hanging up the phone, Li Yan looked at her grandfather again and smiled, "Okay, my friend told us to go to the parking lot to pick up the tricycle. When we get there, we just need to say my name."

Li Yan sounded somewhat smug.

The large-scale ban on tricycles in Xianyuan County has caused quite a stir, and she knows about it. She has also seen law enforcement officers cracking down on tricycles on the streets.

This matter would seem very big to most people.

But she solved it with just one phone call, which made her very proud.

At the same time, it also made her even more envious of her best friend Zhang Hui for finding such a capable partner.

This further solidified her resolve that she absolutely could not find an ordinary partner.

Like... Lin Yun, who was just using a cart to haul vegetables?

Hmph, that Lin Yun isn't very capable, but he's quite cunning. He's definitely not her type.

"No need. Since the authorities have decided to properly regulate tricycles, and since they are doing so selflessly, I will absolutely not try to get my tricycle back through back channels. The authorities made a mistake in this matter. I will wait for them to release my tricycle. If they don't, I would rather my tricycle rot there!" the old man said with a livid face.

After saying that, he turned and left.

Li Yan's phone call made him even more disappointed with the authorities.

"This is our job. If you have something to say, go talk to the county leaders. This policy wasn't issued by us!"

Yesterday morning, the words of those law enforcement officers still seemed to echo in his ears, etched deeply into his memory!

He knelt down before those people, but they still wouldn't let his tricycle go!

Now, his granddaughter just made one phone call and got those people to release them?

How ironic!

This made him feel even more ashamed of kneeling yesterday!

He actually knelt down to this kind of person!

He won't take that back door!

Although he knew it was unlikely that the authorities would voluntarily release their tricycles!

However, he would rather leave that tricycle rotting there than take it back!

"Oh, Grandpa..." Li Yan said anxiously when she saw her grandfather's attitude.

She quickly parked her electric scooter and went to stop her grandfather.

“Even if you don’t say it, Grandpa knows. You just look down on Lin Yun’s family for growing and selling vegetables, right? You just think it’s shameful for him to pull a cart to the county town to sell vegetables, right? But doesn’t he feel ashamed?” The old man looked at Li Yan in front of him and said with great heartache.

He wasn't stupid; decades of life experience gave him a sense of things far beyond that of a young person.

How could he not have noticed the smugness in Li Yan's expression when she spoke just now?

He never imagined that, without realizing it, his granddaughter would grow up to be such a materialistic and vain person.

“You don’t understand…you really don’t understand…” the old man shook his head, repeating repeatedly.

“He’s not the kind of person you’re describing. He just came back from out of town yesterday morning, so he couldn’t possibly do any of those schemes you’re talking about. You look down on him because he’s poor and powerless, and you think it’s shameful for him to be selling vegetables from a cart, but you don’t know that the clothes he’s wearing are worth tens of thousands of yuan…” The old man’s tone was somewhat forlorn.

After saying that, the old man turned and left, this time walking very quickly.

The price of Lin Yun's clothes was actually a lie he told the old man to avoid him thinking about returning the three thousand yuan. The old man didn't pay attention at the time and even suspected that Lin Yun was telling a white lie to prevent him from returning the three thousand yuan.

But at that moment, the old man believed it.

The conversations along the way gave the old man a strong sense of trust in Lin Yun.

In addition, considering what his granddaughter just said, Lin Yun treated her to a meal that cost two or three thousand yuan. So, Lin Yun must really be very rich to do that, rather than it being a scheme by the other party, as his granddaughter said.

He knew about Wangxianlou. His granddaughter said that ordinary people couldn't get a free pass there, but Wangxianlou could give Lin Yun a free pass, which further proved that Lin Yun was no ordinary person.

On the other hand, his granddaughter's character is not so good.

At this moment, he no longer had any thought about Lin Yun being with his granddaughter.

He knew that his granddaughter was not good enough for that boy.

“Grandpa…Grandpa…” Li Yan stomped her feet angrily from behind.

The electric scooter was right next to her, and she couldn't abandon it to chase after her grandfather.

Why is her grandfather so stubborn?

She felt frustrated.

This made her hate Lin Yun even more.

The clothes she was wearing were only worth tens of thousands of yuan? What a liar, actually cheating her grandfather!

Only ignorant old people and five-year-old children would believe such words!

Zhang Hui's family.

"What? He said the clothes he was wearing were only worth tens of thousands of yuan?" Zhang Hui couldn't believe it as she listened to her best friend's angry account.

“Yes! He really dares to brag! When we ate together yesterday, he seemed so honest. I never expected him to be this kind of person!” Li Yan nodded emphatically.

"I really don't know what kind of spell he cast on my grandfather to make him believe him so much!" Li Yan said angrily after a pause.

The thought of her grandfather's words when he passed away, those words that seemed to see right through her, that tone of disappointment, made her so angry she felt like her lungs were going to explode.

"Don't blame your grandpa. He's old and easily fooled by sweet talk. You should be more understanding. Wasn't your grandpa's tricycle confiscated? Drive it home later and let your grandpa calm down. Old people shouldn't get too angry!" Zhang Hui covered her mouth and laughed.

"Anyway, his target is you. Now that you see his true colors and aren't fooled by him, isn't that good enough?" Zhang Hui paused, blinked, and said.

"That's all we can do!" Li Yan nodded, saying helplessly.
