Chapter 318 Taking the child home to see Old Man Lu

"Mom, what's going on with Dad? Did he go back and reunite with my grandpa?"

Upon hearing Lu Wanxing's question, Han Ximan on the other end could only sigh helplessly.

"We were just about to go see you, we'll talk when we meet."

Han Ximan's somewhat helpless voice rang out.

Lu Wanxing hadn't expected such a coincidence, so she simply waited for them at home.

Previously, she had been focused on her child and rarely paid attention to her father and grandfather, so she didn't know what happened to the father and son later.

The two arrived in about fifteen minutes.

They checked on the child first, and then, seeing that Lu Wanxing seemed to be in good spirits today, the two of them felt a little relieved.

"Mom and Dad, how's Grandpa doing?"

"Ahem, your grandfather did want to come see you before, but Bo Sinian said you weren't feeling well, so he didn't come. Seeing you like this now, I'm much relieved," Han Ximan explained.

Then Lu Chengbo said, "Ahem, I took your mother to see your grandfather. That old man is quite arrogant, saying he won't hold it against me for your and the baby's sake..."

Lu Chengbo is quite old, and it's actually a bit embarrassing to be spoken to like that by his own father.

The father and son's current relationship is somewhat awkward, but it's clear that the old man loves his granddaughter, Lu Wanxing.

Hearing him say that, Lu Wanxing couldn't help but laugh. "I haven't been able to go out because of the children. We should be going to see Grandpa. Are you free today? If you are, let's go see Grandpa together."

I didn’t know she had this kind of relationship with Grandpa Lu before, so I just treated her as a patient and an ordinary elder.

Now that we know the old man's identity, it's only natural that we should go and acknowledge our own grandfather.

Lu Chengbo and Han Ximan exchanged a glance, both of them smiling. Then Lu Chengbo said, "Alright, since you've said so, let's go back and visit the old man when we have time, so that he won't keep worrying about us."

Lu Wanxing smiled.

Lu Wanxing took the child with her, and also picked up a lot of things for the old man, before setting off together.

When they arrived at the old man's place, none of them had told him beforehand. They happened to run into the old man in the garden, but he was feeding the birds while complaining about Lu Chengbo.

"I told you, raising a son is worse than raising a bird. All my son does is annoy me!"

"Bird son! Bird son!"

Lu Chengbo: ? ? ?

Lu Wanxing couldn't help but laugh first; the old man was as amusing as ever.

Her laughter immediately made the old man turn around, and he was a little taken aback when he saw that it was her.

"You silly girl, you've finally deigned to come see this old man?"

His tone was familiar yet tinged with a hint of arrogant complaint.

Lu Wanxing felt guilty as she thought about how she had been living in a daze lately and touched her nose.

"Hehe~ Grandpa, I'm so sorry for coming to see you so late!"

The old man waved his hand dismissively.

"It's alright, it's alright. I'm just worried because I know about the child. This old man doesn't have anything to see." The old man said, then went to look at the child that Han Ximan was holding in her arms.

"This child really changes every day~ He's so cute right now."

The old man often feels like he's in a dream. He has a daughter-in-law, a granddaughter, and now even a great-grandson.

This good-for-nothing son, after all these years, has done one thing right.

However, considering that he had only seen his children once every twenty years, the old man was actually a little afraid that his children would resent him.

Seeing them like this now, he felt guilty.

"Alright, old man, my wife is still holding the baby. Come inside and sit down."

"Yes, yes, yes, come in and sit down first."

Only then did the old man belatedly realize what had happened, and immediately told everyone to go inside first.

Seeing that Lu Wanxing was in good spirits, the old man felt a little relieved.

After entering the house, the old man immediately hugged the child and wouldn't let go.

"Your dad won't let me see you. I was almost starting to think you'd forgotten about me."

"Old man, why are you telling Xingxing all this?" Lu Chengbo was a little embarrassed. Why was this old man deliberately trying to undermine him?

"Grandpa, no, I was just thinking I'd come see you again when I felt a bit better."

"Hmm, seeing you like this now, I feel much more at ease." The old man chuckled, looking down at Tian Tian.

"That's why I still say daughters are better. In the future, you should come home to visit this old man more often, and I will be content."

Actually, when the old man first suggested it, he wanted Lu Wanxing and the others to come home and stay for a while when they had time. However, considering that the children hadn't lived together for so many years, he didn't want to make them feel awkward.

So let's take it slow.

Lu Wanxing still went to check on the old man's health, and only felt a little relieved after confirming that there was nothing wrong.

It was already clear that the relationship between the old man and her father was actually quite awkward, and it seemed that the father and son had only eased their tension because of her.

When Lu Chengbo saw Lu Wanxing helping the old man examine his body, he was clearly very worried, but he deliberately put on an arrogant look and stood to the side muttering to himself:

"As you get older, you should cultivate your character and temperament. Being short-tempered and irritable is not good for your health."

Sure enough, as soon as those words were spoken, the old man was so angry that he glared and puffed out his beard.

“How am I in a bad temper? Didn’t you see that when you weren’t back, I was in a good temper? My bad temper is all because of you, my son.”

He couldn't help but complain.

Fortunately, Lu Chengbo wasn't really arguing with the old man at this moment; they seemed to be bickering more, so Lu Wanxing, who was listening nearby, didn't interfere.

"Yes, yes, you have a very good temper. A few months ago, weren't you still lying in bed?"

Lu Chengbo said with a look of disgust that he only learned from the housekeeper that the old man had been bedridden for the past few years, and it was only after Lu Wanxing came back that his illness was cured.

Otherwise, he would probably still be lying there.

Hearing his son say that about him, the old man had nothing to say. Indeed, if it weren't for Lu Wanxing, he would probably still be lying in bed.

"Hmph~" The old man snorted arrogantly and then ignored Lu Chengbo.

"I didn't expect Xingxing to have this medical skill." Lu Chengbo sighed. He had indeed missed his child's growth over the years, but fortunately, Han Ximan had raised the child very well.
