Shen Yaning was stunned. Si Hanting is here!
It has been a long time since she last saw Si Hanting. It seems to have been about a week.
Suddenly there was no one around to "make noise", and I felt a little uncomfortable.
She admitted that she was happy the moment she heard his voice, but it was probably a subconscious reaction and she didn't catch it.
While she was stunned, Si Hanting had already walked down the stairs and stood between her and Meng Baiquan.
He tried his best to move his gaze elsewhere, but he couldn't take his eyes away from Ningning.
God knows how he got through this week. He was almost annoyed to death, but he couldn't just find an excuse to call Ningning out. That would be no different from harassment.
Sun Youyou said that Ningning cannot be "kidnapped" by using the term "engaged couple", otherwise she will only feel more disgusted.
Although Meng Baiquan knew the relationship between them, he did not point it out. Instead, he deliberately kept a sullen face and said, "How dare you? You came back at noon and sat in the study. I knew you were here to keep an old man like me company, but I didn't know you were here to work from home."
Old Man Meng’s favorite grandson is Si Hanting, the child of his favorite daughter and the smartest and most sensible one in the family.
{No, I was the naughtiest when I was little.}
Si Hanting: “…”
"I just had something urgent to do. I'll be out after I've dealt with it," Si Hanting defended himself in a low voice. He had just finished a meeting and it wasn't intentional.
It's just that he came back on purpose. He knew Ningning would come to check him, so he came early.
“Yes, yes, Miss Shen has finished examining me before you came out. You are really a good grandson of your grandfather.” The more Meng Baiquan thought about it, the more he wanted to complain about Si Hanting.
Shen Yaning: “…”
These grandfather and grandson are quite amusing.
A bit like my third brother, fifth brother and grandfather.
Second brother...I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder what you've been busy with lately.
As Shen Yaning thought about it, she couldn't help but chuckle.
Meng Baiquan looked at Shen Yaning a little embarrassedly, trying his best to save his image: "Don't be afraid, Shen girl, Grandpa Meng is still very gentle. It's really my grandson who has too many problems."
Si Hanting: “…”
You're such a good grandpa, and you're... exposing my shortcomings?!
"Grandpa Meng, I'm not scared. It's just that seeing your interaction with Si Hanting reminds me of my third and fifth brothers. They get along with grandpa in the same way. Grandpa may dislike it, but I don't know how happy he is in his heart. The eldest brother is busy with company affairs, the second brother flies around the world, and the fourth brother has a lot of competitions. Only the third and fifth brothers have relatively more time. We occasionally quarrel, and the atmosphere of life at home is stronger." Shen Yaning said softly. When she mentioned her family, her tone was gentle and her whole aura was warm.
Si Hanting was a little dazed for a moment.
"Granddaughters are still the best. They understand these things. Among my grandchildren, only this guy comes back to see an old man like me occasionally. The others..." Shen Yaning's words seemed to touch Meng Baiquan, and he began to sigh with infinite emotion.
"But, I, your grandson, am of no use. You asked him to buy the herb at the auction, and I repeatedly told him to give you the other one. But he actually took the money. I was so angry!" In order to prove that he was really angry, Meng Baiquan slapped Si Hanting on the back with a "slap".
Si Hanting: “…”
Can you please save some face?!
Shen Yaning quickly explained: "Grandpa Meng, you misunderstood Si Hanting. He did give me the herbs, but I felt that there was no reward without merit, so I transferred the money to him. It has nothing to do with him."
Shen Yaning herself didn't know that a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes just now.
Meng Baiquan didn't listen at all: "It must be because he didn't do it well, that's why you don't want to accept things from an old man like me..."
As he said this, he wanted to beat Si Hanting again. He had a cold face, but he couldn't refute it at all.
"No, no, I... next time, okay, next time, I will definitely accept anything Grandpa Meng gives me!" Shen Yaning suddenly felt that Meng Baiquan was more stubborn than her grandfather. The most important thing was that her grandfather was just threatening people, but Grandpa Meng really took action.
The slap on my back just now sounded very crisp.
"Really?" Meng Baiquan didn't believe it and asked in surprise.
“Really, really, I won’t refuse anything Grandpa Meng gives me in the future.” Shen Yaning immediately promised.
"Then accept the things this brat gave you. You saved me, so you are the savior of my Meng family and the Si family. He should always remember your kindness and think of you when he gets any good things." Meng Baiquan finally got to the real purpose. This was his purpose.
Shen Yaning hesitated: "This..."
"Girl, don't you want to?" Meng Baiquan began to preach like pouring beans: "Girl Shen, you have to know that the doctor said that I only have two years to live, but I, although I want to go down to find my wife, but she said that my mission will not be completed until I see my grandchildren get married and have children. Your grandfather and I have no comrades-in-arms, and only your grandfather and I are left... You saved me, so if there is anything good that he thinks of you, that's normal. If he doesn't think of you, then I will beat him to death. Of course, if you feel bad, you can also return the gift, but you don't have to deliberately return it..."
Si Hanting: “!!!!”
The old man is tall!
He originally thought that the old man was going to laugh at him, but he didn't expect that he was setting a trap for Ningning at every step.
This is the application of "The Art of War".
"I..." Shen Yaning saw that there was no impurity in Meng Baiquan's eyes, and thought that he probably had no other purpose.
So I agreed. Anyway, I guess he wouldn't give me many gifts. At worst, I could just prepare some return gifts myself.
"Okay, Grandpa Meng, then I agree..."
Meng Baiquan smiled instantly and quickly praised: "Good, good, Miss Shen is really sensible."
Suddenly he looked at Si Hanting, and then said to Shen Yaning: “Girl, if you are not busy recently, can you help take a look at Hanting?”
Shen Yaning was slightly startled, and asked with concern in her eyes: "What's wrong?"
"This kid, after being in charge of the Si family for the past few years, coupled with all the mess he's been dealing with, has had irregular eating habits and severe stomach problems. When he came over at noon, I'd already eaten, but he didn't, and he still had a stomach ailment here... It didn't take long before he started working again. Sigh..."
Shen Yaning's face darkened. No wonder it looked a little strange just now. It was just that she didn't look carefully.
She looked at Si Hanting and said in a deep voice, "Then sit down and I'll take your pulse."
