At 32 years old, Chi Chan, single since birth, lived a struggling life, exhausted every day just to survive.
At 16 years old, Chi Chan was spirited and full of confidence, ready to enter a ne...
"Hehe—hehe—I heard from the aunties downstairs when I was moving that our neighbor across the street is surnamed Lin. Since your door was open, I guessed you must be Grandma Lin! Hehe—hehe—"
Where Grandma Lin couldn't see, An Wenjing gave Qu Dudu a thumbs up.
——
When Linda got home from get off work, she heard laughter and cheerful voices coming from the living room as soon as she entered the door.
Looking into the living room with a puzzled expression, his relaxed expression instantly froze.
"Oh, Xiao Da's back! Let's eat!"
I don't know what the others were talking about earlier, but Grandma Lin was smiling so hard her eyes were practically closed.
Normally, as soon as Linda entered the house, Grandma Lin would come up to greet her.
Today, after Grandma Lin said this, Qu Dudu and An Wenjing helped the old lady up on either side and walked towards the restaurant. Grandma Lin then greeted her.
Ignored him?!
and!
Why did An Wenjing come to his house?
Linda's vigilance and alertness were at their peak during the distance from the entrance to the restaurant.
"Grandma, you are—" How did you meet her?
He hadn't finished speaking.
Grandma Lin couldn't wait to interrupt him.
"Xiao Da, you three don't know each other yet, do you?"
Grandma Lin happily introduced An Wenjing, Qu Dudu, and Lin Da to each other.
Linda greeted An Wenjing, who was all smiles, with a forced smile.
Qu Dudu's gaze swept back and forth between Lin Da and An Wenjing, finally giving An Wenjing an approving look.
An Wenjing tilted her head back triumphantly.
I knew that if Qu Dudu met Lin Da in person, she would definitely agree with her previous statement.
Grandma Lin was still immersed in the excitement of meeting a new girl she liked: "Wenjing, look at that brat Linda, he's almost 30 and still doesn't listen to anyone, he's always giving me a hard time!"
"Grandma Lin, Mr. Lin is so young and already the founder of Chenxing Media. He's so accomplished! We're so envious! If you put it that way, then Wenjing and I are really useless!"
Qu Dudu's expressions were exaggerated, and her language was also very flamboyant, but Grandma Lin was completely won over by it. While complaining about Lin Da in this and that way, she stood up straighter than anyone else.
Three women make a drama. The ancients were right.
Throughout the meal, Linda didn't even have a chance to interject; the table was filled with the chattering and laughter of three women—one old and two young.
After a long and difficult meal, Grandma Lin stopped Lin Da, who was clearing the dishes: "Why are you in such a hurry? The strawberries at the market are quite fresh today. I bought a whole basket. Go wash a plate and bring it over for Wenjing and Dudu to try."
If Grandma Lin didn't know An Wenjing and Qu Dudu, then these fresh, big strawberries today must have been bought by Grandma Lin especially for Lin Da.
And now—Linda, who had instantly become a tool, smiled and said, "Okay, Grandma, I'll go wash right away."
"Wenjing, you and Dudu are both so lively. Are there any single girls around you who are looking for partners? Introduce them to Linda. If things go well, Grandma will definitely give you both a big red envelope!"
Qu Dudu's eyes lit up: "Grandma Lin, Wenjing is single! Look, how about we introduce Wenjing to your Linda? Today at dinner, I saw Wenjing secretly looking at Linda!"
"Qu Dudu!" An Wenjing was so startled that she immediately jumped up from the sofa, her eyes flashing a warning look!
She finally managed to get in touch with Grandma Lin today, and she doesn't want that connection to break down so soon.
"Oh my goodness!" Grandma Lin exclaimed excitedly, slapping her thigh. "Really?!"
Grandma Lin is so happy today! She took an instant liking to the two girls, and to her surprise, the generous and lovely girls don't even have boyfriends yet!
"Wenjing, what do you think of our Linda?"
Grandma Lin shifted her body and sat closer to An Wenjing, excitedly grabbing An Wenjing's hand: "Xiao Da, this child, I'm not trying to criticize him, but he's always been so easy to take care of since he was little!"
"..."
“Every day after school, he would help me with chores after finishing his homework. He was so pitiful at such a young age. Xiao Da had a hard life, with few relatives. His father passed away when he was young, and his mother ran away, leaving just the two of us, grandpa and granddaughter, to depend on each other for survival…”
As she finished speaking, Grandma Lin's excitement waned, her voice grew lower, and a hint of tears welled up in her eyes.
An Wenjing comforted Grandma Lin with a hug: "Grandma Lin, everything is in the past now. Lin Da is so successful now, you have a lot of good days ahead of you!"
"Yes, yes, yes—Wenjing, you have such a sweet tongue, hahaha. Let's not talk about that anymore. Come on, have some fruit with Dudu. These are big strawberries I just bought today, they're so fresh!"
Grandma Lin greeted the two of them.
An Wenjing held a large, clean strawberry that was still damp in one hand, and secretly glanced into the kitchen.
So handsome! He can wash strawberries and dishes, and even his back view while washing dishes is so charming!
On the other end, Qu Dudu and Grandma Lin exchanged a knowing glance and covered their mouths to chuckle.
——
The two stayed at Linda's house from the afternoon until 9 p.m. before returning to the other side amidst Grandma Lin's reluctant gaze.
As soon as she entered, An Wenjing ran around the room like a madwoman.
"Ahhh! Dudu, I'm so excited! Ahhhh! Grandma Lin seems really happy with me! Waaaaah, your idea was brilliant, so clever, so amazing!"
An Wenjing hugged a cushion and buried herself in the sofa, squirming excitedly.
