Bai Shuang finished inserting the acupuncture needles into Grandpa Lu's arm and was pressing the needle with her hand when the guards came in.
"Sir, Mr. Ling has arrived."
"Please come in!"
Ling Liyuan entered the leader's bedroom and saw a fairy-like young girl whose features seemed somewhat familiar.
She was administering acupuncture to the leader, skillfully adjusting the needle technique, while Lu Yu helped apply a blanket to him.
Although the three occasionally bickered, they were all in good spirits, and the leader was clearly enjoying himself.
Could she be Bai Shuang, the woman Qingyao spoke of? Lu Yu's confidante?
Lu Yu looked at the newcomer, "Uncle Ling."
The visitor did not affect Bai Shuang; she remained focused on treating Grandpa Lu.
After completing a set of acupuncture techniques and removing the needles, she looked up at the person who had come in. He was a handsome middle-aged man. Was he Ling Qingyao's father?
However, since no one introduced him and it was none of my business, I didn't need to greet him.
She turned to look at Grandpa Lu, "Alright, you can sleep soundly tonight. Remember to eat on time from now on."
"Didn't you say you'd give me something good?"
"You promised Lu Yu you'd give me something good, really good stuff, if you agreed to help me with this."
"That damned bastard plotted against me."
"This isn't scheming; it's an equal exchange."
Grandpa Lu's eyes darted around. "What good stuff could be worth my grandson's price?"
"What if it could improve health and prolong life?"
"Don't worry, your grandson is still your grandson. He's just been away for a while. You can take over for him."
Grandpa Lu thought that since they insisted on leaving, he might as well help his grandson. He must have had a hard time catching up with the girl, since she didn't come back with Lu Yu last time.
"It's not that it's impossible, I just wanted to ask, when are you going to marry my grandson?"
Lu Yu also looked at Bai Shuang, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"Marriage? I haven't thought about it yet; I need to think about it carefully."
"Okay, then you should study hard for the exam. Wait until you've thought it through before you travel far."
"That won't do. I have to go as soon as possible, and I have to take your grandson with me. He promised me, and you can't let him be a person who breaks his promise, can you?"
"Whether he's faithful or not is none of my business."
Grandpa Lu was also quite helpless with Bai Shuang's constant switching between "you" and "your".
Ling Liyuan, who was sitting to the side, was surprised to see his usually dignified leader joking around with a junior like a playful old man.
Now he's actually saying he doesn't care whether his grandson is trustworthy or not.
"I don't care. If you agree, I'll give you something good. If you don't agree, I'll still take him away, and then you'll lose your good stuff."
Grandpa Lu: "Can you take him away without my permission?"
Bai Shuang winked mischievously, "It seems so."
Grandpa Lu glared at him; he didn't want to fall out with the younger generation.
"Okay, I agree, but there are conditions."
I'll get married after I come back; that's my final concession.
Bai Shuang nodded, "Okay, if nothing unexpected happens, we'll get married when we get back."
Now that you've established a romantic relationship, marriage is inevitable sooner or later; you can't keep her hanging on forever.
Grandpa Lu sat up, held out his hand, and asked, "Where's the good stuff?"
Bai Shuang took out a bottle of medicine and smiled, "Don't worry, I'll make sure you're healthy and strong."
I can help Lu Yu.
"That brat is plotting against me again."
As he said this, he reached out and took the bottle, then opened the cap, drank it all in one gulp without even looking at it, and immediately felt refreshed and clear-headed.
"Hmm, it's good stuff. Give me another bottle."
"No more. If you make me happy tomorrow, there will be more; if you don't, there won't be any."
"What a cunning girl! Old Bai has always been kind and honest, how did he raise you like this? You've even stolen my grandson's heart."
"Wouldn't it be better to leave your grandson with me? You don't like him anyway."
Grandpa Lu wanted to say, "Who said I don't like it?" But he had already said it and couldn't take it back, so he glared at the brat again.
Lu Yu watched his grandfather and daughter-in-law bickering with amusement, choosing not to take sides.
Although Grandpa Lu seemed to dislike Bai Shuang, Ling Liyuan could tell that he was spoiling her.
Grandpa Lu didn't seem to have a good attitude towards Bai Shuang, but if he really disliked this granddaughter-in-law, he wouldn't have acted like this.
Mr. Ling, "Are you Bai Zhifan's daughter?"
Bai Shuang looks about five parts like her mother, Bai Shiyan, but their temperaments are completely different.
Bai Shiyan is gentle and kind. When Bai Shuang is happy, although her face is full of goodwill, she cannot hide her sharpness and shrewdness.
Bai Shuang was speechless and did not reply.
Because of Ling Qingyao, she had no good feelings towards this gentleman.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Lu Yu shook his head. "She isn't."
Grandpa Lu: "She's Old Bai's granddaughter."
Ling Liyuan continued, "Is your father Li Wenyuan?"
Bai Shuang glared at him, thinking he was out of his mind, but still ignored him.
No wonder he could have a daughter like Ling Qingyao; this person has something wrong with their brain.
If Ling Liyuan knew that she thought of him this way, I wonder what he would think?
At this moment, Lu Yu and his grandfather also looked at him strangely.
Ling Liyuan finally realized his mistake, "I'm sorry, I asked too many questions."
Just then, the snow leopard darted in while everyone was distracted.
Two guards saw it and followed it in, trying to drive it away, but Lu Yu stopped them.
"It's alright, this is Shuangshuang's beloved dog, it won't hurt anyone."
Since the general had spoken, they no longer needed to pay attention, and the guards returned to their posts.
Bai Shuang patted the snow leopard's head. "Say hello to Grandpa."
