When she got home, Lan Xiaolan collapsed on the sofa exhausted. She had been shopping all day and eaten so many delicious foods. Now she just wanted to go home and have a good sleep.
I had just been lying on the sofa for a while when I heard the sound of the door opening outside.
It’s Ren Tingxi who’s back.
She was at home, waiting for him, and saw him coming home from get off work.
This feeling was exactly the same as it was ten years ago when they were in college and rented a house together.
This feeling is both familiar and unfamiliar.
Ren Tingxi sat down, lifted her head, and let her rest her head on his big feet.
This feeling was so comfortable that Lan Xiaolan closed her eyes and almost fell asleep.
"Hurry up and take a shower. Don't sleep any more. It's dirty."
"No, I'm so tired today. I don't want to take a shower. I want to sleep."
"If you smell like this, I will dislike you."
"I don't care. If you dislike it, just sleep in the guest room."
"How can this be? I haven't even completed the task assigned to me by my father-in-law. How can I sleep in a separate room from my wife? This is outrageous!"
"My dear Mr. Ren, is this how you use the word 'what a disgrace'? Is it appropriate to use it here?"
"It's inappropriate, inappropriate. It's even more inappropriate for you to sleep here! Get up quickly."
"No, no!"
It was like two three-year-old kids arguing, one talking back and forth.
In the end, Ren Tingxi couldn't resist her and picked her up from the sofa.
"What are you going to do?"
"I can't convince you, so I have to resort to violence!"
"No, no, no... don't do this... put me down..."
Ren Tingxi threw her onto the bed with one hand, and all the foreplay was ready.
Just as they were getting deeper and deeper, Lan Xiaolan's cell phone suddenly rang.
"Who on earth is this spoiler who interrupts our fun?"
"Look... yes, your father-in-law."
Lan Xiaolan pushed Ren Tingxi hard, and when she saw that it was really her father-in-law calling, Ren Tingxi walked away reluctantly.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
"Daughter, are you busy this weekend?"
Hadn't she promised Ren Tingxi that she would go to Grandpa's birthday party with him this weekend? Her father called again to ask if she was free this weekend. Could it be something urgent?
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"Dad has a master, whom I mentioned to you before. He is now over 90 years old. He called me today and said that he has not been feeling well recently and wanted me to visit him this weekend."
"He said he was ill and dying. The old man is getting old, and we see each other less and less. You know, Dad is where he is today because of this master's careful teaching."
"The old man is seriously ill and said he has never met my daughter and wants to see you before he dies. His words are very serious and I can't refuse, so I thought you would come with me to visit my master this weekend."
"this……"
"What's wrong? Are you not free this weekend?"
This put Lan Xiaolan in a dilemma. On one side was Ren Tingxi's grandfather and family, and on the other side was her old and dying master who had done her father a favor.
There is meat on the left and there is meat on the right. At this moment, Lan Xiaolan really doesn’t know who to see.
Lan Xiaolan looked at Ren Tingxi for help.
Ren Tingxi answered the phone: "Dad, Xiaolan is free that day, so let her go with you to visit your master. I'll send Xiaolan back home a day in advance, so that you two can have more time to reunite and talk."
"Tingxi, you are indeed a considerate child. It's settled then. You can go to bed and have some rest. Good night."
After hanging up the phone, Lan Xiaolan sighed: "But how are you going to explain to Grandpa?"
"Don't worry, my grandfather is a man who doesn't mind small matters, and he's in very good health. If you can't come over on Sunday, I can go visit him with you another day to apologize."
"Grandpa won't let us."
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course! When it comes to skipping a table, being absent, being late, and not following the rules, in the Ren family, my grandfather is second only to me. No one else dares to claim first place. Just let your father go."
"Okay, then your parents..."
"If you really want to meet my parents, I'll take you back to the Ren family villa tomorrow."
"But the creatures that linger there are all sorts of monsters and demons, even scarier than demons and monsters. Are you sure you want to go and live with ghosts?"
"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to bed."
"The matter is not over yet, why are you sleeping?"
"Hmm? What's not finished yet?"
Ren Tingxi held Lan Xiaolan's body with one hand. Now he was lying on top of her, looking down at her condescendingly.
"Our work is not over yet..."
*
Ren Tingxi sent Lan Xiaolan back to his hometown in Pei County a few days in advance.
He has been very busy these days, with too many dinner and drinking parties. For several days, he did not return home until the early morning after socializing. He sent Lan Xiaolan back a few days in advance because he did not want her to see him drunk and add to his troubles.
Lan Xiaolan had nothing special to do these days, so she stayed at her hometown, preparing a gift for Ren Tingxi's grandfather and his father's master.
Fortunately, the studio in her hometown was fully equipped with tools, and Lan Xiaolan was able to tinker with it very easily.
This was a craft she had learned in Country E, and she hadn't yet made a finished product to give away. Taking this opportunity, she could make two gifts for the two elderly people as a token of her appreciation.
