Chapter 86: Parting is always so hasty (2)



Shen Mo was silent, his mood getting depressed again, "Will you stay if I use it?"

An Ci suddenly felt like she was shooting herself in the foot. She lowered her head and said, "...I can't."

Shen Mo didn't want to make her unhappy, so he didn't continue the topic. He picked up her coat and hung it on the hanger, then turned off the lights.

In the huge room, only a small night light was on, and the dim glow made the night a little warm.

Shen Mo habitually shook her hand and changed the subject to a lighter one, "Is the manor fun?"

"It's okay." An Ci tilted his head, their hair rubbing together, making it hard to tell one from the other. "But it's not as fun as this."

"After returning home, the elders would supervise my studies. I would get up at 5:30 for morning exercises, and then I would go to classes. Occasionally, when I didn't have classes, I would go to the vegetable garden."

Shen Mo asked, "Vegetable garden?"

Seeing that he was interested, An Ci talked to him about what happened to her in the manor, and she said that Shen Mo was responsible for listening.

The two chatted for a long time. An Ci didn't know when she fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already noon.

After eating the breakfast bought by Shi Che, Shen Mo accompanied An Ci back to Villa No. 2.

As soon as he entered the room and saw the living room was full of people, it was so crowded that An Ci's heart skipped a beat.

There are so many people here, what’s going on?

An Ci noticed the suitcase in the corner, glanced at An Zhenxiong, and asked in a puzzled tone, "Grandpa, are you going back so soon?"

An Zhenxiong didn't answer, but waved at her, "Come here."

An Ci thought he had something to tell her before he left, so she walked over briskly.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I've finished my homework. When you get back, I'll..."

Before she could finish, An Zhenxiong's words brought her to the bottom of the valley, "Xiao Ci, come back with me."

An Ci stood there in a daze, the smile on his face froze, "What?"

No one else said anything, and An Lan turned her face away reluctantly.

"The holiday ends early, you come back with me." An Zhenxiong reached out and touched her head, his expression gentle, "Go pack your luggage, we'll leave after lunch."

An Ci was a little stunned, "Didn't we agree on three months?"

Understanding that a child like her couldn't bear to leave her parents, An Zhenxiong felt sorry for her but was also helpless.

He patiently explained, "Grandpa doesn't want to break his promise to you, but something happened. For your safety and Xiaoxi's safety, you have to go back with me."

An Ci was not really a three-year-old child, so he naturally understood the deeper meaning of An Zhenxiong's words.

If nothing serious had happened, her grandfather wouldn't have been so anxious to take her back. Her injury was fine, but she didn't want to put her sister in danger.

An Ci thought for a moment, then looked up at An Zhenxiong and asked cleverly, "So if the problem is resolved, can I come back and make up for the half-month vacation?"

She understands that things have their priorities, but she still has to fight for the benefits that belong to her.

An Zhenxiong laughed angrily, "You're not active in class, but you're quite active in playing."

An Ci said, "If you don't give me extra leave, then I won't go back."

I was worried that she would cry and make a fuss and refuse to leave, but I didn't expect her to agree so readily. When An Zhenxiong was sighing at his little grandson's understanding, he didn't expect her to do this.

He reached out and tapped her forehead. "You, you have so many tricks up your sleeve, I don't even know who you look like."

"Of course it looks like you, grandpa." An Ci said sweetly.

An Zhenxiong laughed, "Okay, once things are settled, I'll let you come back whenever you want a vacation, but we agreed it's only for half a month."
