Ji Qingqian had previously told Lu Yibei that she wanted to eat the dishes he cooked.
The two then planned to return to Chaocheng together.
Although Lu Yibei had to go through some roundabout means to fulfill Ji Qingqian's wish because she was sick with a fever, he did manage to do so.
However, the original plan was not abandoned.
Because the oden was quite hot, Lu Yibei carefully slurped it down for a while before swallowing it.
"No, it's not too late to notify them now."
"good."
Ji Qingqian watched as her boyfriend took out his phone.
Actually, she was very apprehensive when she first went to Abei's house.
When I stepped into Ah Bei's house, I felt a little regretful, and even had a small thought that "I'll just treat this time as a way to make Ah Bei happy, and I'll never come again next time."
But after spending a week there, Ji Qingqian developed a strange sense of belonging to that place.
The older women doted on her, treating her like family.
She is not good at dealing with elders, except for Abei's grandparents.
…In fact, Grandma was very good at dealing with her.
And in some ways, her grandfather would inexplicably reach a consensus with her.
After the last trip, her state of mind changed slightly. She was still a wanderer away from home, but going to Abei's house felt less like visiting and more like... "going home".
Although my grandparents are literate, they are elderly and prefer to use speech.
"I'll be back this Friday."
—Lu Yibei sent this message to his grandfather.
Grandma often goes for walks outside, but Grandpa is an expert surfer and checks his phone more frequently.
At this time, the two elders should still be awake.
Sure enough, Grandpa replied as soon as the message was sent.
"Are you coming back with your friends?"
Ji Qingqian didn't understand, so she looked at her boyfriend.
Lu Yibei served as the translator:
"Asking, 'Did your girlfriend come back with you?'..."
After saying that.
Just as he was about to reply, his grandfather said again:
“That auntie Guangze, will you come back soon? You can press the button once.”
Ji Qingqian continued listening to the astronomy lecture, and she gently tugged at her boyfriend's sleeve.
Lu Yibei stiffened slightly, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
Although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to obediently translate under the girl's curious and expectant gaze:
"Grandpa said, 'Your grandma said, if Qianqian doesn't come back, you shouldn't come back either…'"
Ji Qingqian blinked gently, finally understanding where her boyfriend's despair came from.
"I've been someone's grandson for twenty years, and I'm still not as good as you for a week."
Ji Qingqian said smugly, "We've captured the enemy's high ground, so it's considered good!"
Lu Yibei sighed.
Actually, there's something he didn't reveal.
That sentence above does sound like something Grandma would say, but this time it probably isn't.
Because if it were Grandma, she would definitely snatch Grandpa's phone and tell the story herself...
In other words, Grandpa was simply using a verbal style similar to "I have a friend" to express his true feelings...
In other words, Grandpa felt that if Qingqian didn't go back, he didn't need to go back either...
Sigh, it's true that grandma hates grandpa and grandma hates her.
"Here, have another bite~"
Ji Qingqian picked up a tempura with a bamboo skewer, and Lu Yibei opened his mouth in frustration and took a bite.
"I think my grandparents like me because they love their grandson so much, so it's just a case of loving the house because of the house."
Ji Qingqian blinked lightly, a hint of playfulness in her eyes: "Right?"
Following her gentle smile, Lu Yibei, though helpless, also smiled:
Yeah~
"But I have to admit, I do have some charm; it's amazing how their precious grandchildren like me so much!"
"That's right, that's right."
"Then why don't you reward me with a fish ball?"
"Okay, come on."
"ah--"
As the girl began to chew, Lu Yibei also conveyed that they would return together.
The two then wandered around the bustling night market for a while.
They then walked back to school hand in hand.
Ji Qingqian looked at the two small hands that were gently waving, and then glanced at the boy in front of her.
It was quiet all around, and the streetlights along the path seemed a bit dim.
Compared to when the two first met and went for a walk, the little insects that used to swarm under the streetlights have disappeared this season.
Ji Qingqian suddenly slowed her pace.
Lu Yibei also stopped and looked at the girl standing behind him with a strange expression.
Ji Qingqian withdrew her hand, but said to Abei with a smile in her eyes:
"You go first, take two steps."
"What's wrong?"
"Go away."
"…OK."
Although he had no idea what his girlfriend was up to, Lu Yibei was quite obedient.
He turned and left.
"Don't look back."
“…”
Lu Yibei remained silent.
When he had taken about ten steps, he heard rather hurried footsteps behind him.
It's like running.
In fact, it was indeed running.
Suddenly, she stopped walking.
The running girl bumped into his back.
Lu Yibei swayed and felt a soft sensation.
The impact was neither too strong nor too weak, but not enough to cause him to lean forward excessively.
When Lu Yibei was somewhat confused, Ji Qingqian's slender arms wrapped around his chest from behind.
She held him tightly, burying her face in his back.
"Abei~~"
The girl's voice was excessively soft and sweet, practically a blatant display of affection.
Lu Yibei chuckled:
"What's wrong?"
"love letter…"
