"Hey, isn't this Lele? When did you get back?"
Hearing the commotion, the old lady came over to take a look, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw the person standing at the door.
Guan Le has loved studying the local customs and cultures of different places since he was a child. In addition, he loves to travel, so after graduation he found a related job and traveled all over the world.
I heard that he's been working on a startup with a friend lately, and he's been so busy that I haven't seen him for days.
"I just got back yesterday."
"That's the same as Zhouzhou and the others." The old lady nodded, then seemed to remember something and glanced at Li Tangyan, who was trying to make her presence known and disappear to the side.
Suddenly, he brought back a wave of nostalgia for her: "So, it must have been quite a few years since you two last met."
"They've all grown into young men and women."
"It's not like when we were kids, where several children would fight for ages over a single sausage."
"...Grandma, I think some things are better left to die in memories."
Li Tangyan chuckled dryly and glanced silently at Wen Zhaonian behind the old lady.
When I met those intriguing eyes, I felt the frequency of my heartbeat gradually increase.
Immediately, she quickly averted her gaze, lowered her eyelashes, and walked to the old lady's side, changing the subject abruptly: "Grandma, it's time. Let me go help you cook."
"What's the rush? I haven't bought the groceries yet." As she spoke, the old lady had already beckoned Guan Le to come in together.
"Then I'll go buy it!" Upon hearing this, Li Tangyan, who was eager to escape the slightly awkward atmosphere, quickly raised her hand.
But the moment she lifted it up, she regretted it.
The old lady nodded and pointed at Wen Zhaonian, saying, "Bring A-Zhao along and show him around properly."
After saying that, he glanced at Guan Le and said, "You haven't been back for a long time either. Come with me. It's so boring for my old woman to stay alone. When you come back, stay and have a meal together."
"..."
Li Tangyan never expected that buying groceries would turn into a three-person trip.
Wen Zhaonian and Guan Le weren't familiar with each other yet, which made her feel like a piece of cake stuck in the middle.
He could only clutch the bamboo basket the old lady was used to using for grocery shopping, and for the ten thousand and first time, he regretted ever suggesting that they go grocery shopping.
Li Tangyan was so lost in thought that she didn't even notice the small pit directly in front of her.
Just as I was about to step on it, my elbow tightened, and I was pulled aside.
The next second, the distance between the two suddenly shrank with Wen Zhaonian's movement. Li Tangyan was close to him, and then she felt someone gently rub the hair on the top of her head.
Be careful.
"Oh..." Li Tangyan touched the tip of her nose, her face flushing slightly.
Guan Le, watching the two of them, smiled when he met Wen Zhaonian's gaze and asked, "Grandma said you two are planning to get married?"
"Hmm." Wen Zhaonian's expression remained unchanged. When he didn't speak or spoke little, he always gave people a somewhat distant feeling.
But soon, when his gaze shifted to Li Tangyan, his voice softened slightly: "I'll send you wedding invitations later."
"Then congratulations in advance!"
After they finished speaking, no one said another word until the three of them passed the sausage stand.
Time flies, and the sausage vendor's face now inevitably bears the marks of time.
The owner of the sausage stand had watched these kids grow up, so he hadn't seen them for a long time.
But they quickly recognized Li Tangyan and Guan Le.
He smiled, pointed to the last sausage grilling on the rack, glanced at the two of them, and joked, "There's only one sausage left today."
"What? Do you two want to have a fight first?"
"..."
Help! Boss, can't you see there's a living person standing right next to me?
Give me some face!
