Chapter 94: Childhood sweethearts' comparison group 18
"Hello, Brother Lin." He Yan sat obediently in the living room, with her legs crossed and her hands placed neatly on her skirt.
Today, Grandma Lin asked her to come over to do knitting together. She came over excitedly with the bag of materials, but when she opened the door, she saw Miaomiao's brother was also there.
Knowing that the little girl was reserved, Lin Qing'an smiled and handed her a glass of water: "Grandma just went out to buy groceries, how about you wait here?"
No wonder the old lady went out humming a song while carrying a vegetable basket ten minutes ago, and even hinted that she would perform well later.
"Is that so?" He Yan was a little at a loss, her eyes wandering around. She and Miaomiao's brother were not familiar with each other at all. They had only been to the amusement park together once when they were in junior high school.
Later, Lin Qing'an continued to study for a master's and doctoral degree abroad. He graduated successfully two years ago and returned to China to join a very famous law firm in Shanghai.
These children who have been raised by other people since childhood are completely different from me.
Besides, she secretly envied the other person's clever brain?
Lin Qing'an, who had never initiated a conversation with a girl, also fell silent. Moreover, he was six years older than the girl in front of him, and he always felt that there was a generation gap between them.
It seems that grandma’s proposal this time is a bit unreliable?
Just when the two of them were looking at each other in silence, Old Lady Lin came back carrying a basket of vegetables.
"Oh, Yan Zi, you come so early today?" The old lady took the initiative. She hugged the little girl affectionately and refused to let go. At the same time, she winked at her grandson behind her back. How about it? Did you leave a good impression just now?
"Grandma Lin," He Yan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled sweetly, "It's okay. I didn't expect to come early today."
Looking at the two women who were as close as one person, Lin Qing'an raised his eyebrows. When did his grandmother become so intimate with others?
Matching me with that young girl, isn't it out of the old lady's selfish motives?
Walking over and taking the vegetable basket from his grandmother's hand, Lin Qing'an turned and went to the kitchen to arrange the vegetables neatly.
"Grandma Lin, why did you buy so many vegetables? This is not my first time here." He Yan acted coquettishly next to the old lady. During the years when she was in school, she often followed Miaomiao home to eat and drink for free.
"Oh, grandma, you are missing you, little girl. That's why you went to the market to buy some ingredients you like." It must be said that Grandma Lin really likes this young lady. She has a beautiful face and a smart mind. She looks silly on the surface, but she knows things better than anyone else.
The more I look at it, the more I want to take it home.
"Grandma, what do you want to eat? I'll go to the kitchen today." Lin Qing'an's soft and attractive voice came from the kitchen.
He Yan's ears moved. What should she do? She suddenly felt like she was becoming voice-controlled.
As a guest, she stood up and looked towards the kitchen in embarrassment: "Grandma Lin, isn't this a bit bad?"
"What's wrong with that?" Old Mrs. Lin waved her hand and secretly gave her grandson a thumbs up in her heart. As expected of her grandson, he knew how to seize the opportunity to perform.
"Don't be fooled by your gentle appearance, Brother Lin. He has become a great cook during his years abroad. You must try it today."
"Ah?" Why did it feel like the old lady was too enthusiastic today? He Yan had a question mark circling in her mind.
This feeling of something being wrong reached its peak during the meal. The old lady praised Brother Lin as if she was promoting some slow-selling product. At the end she even said, "It's a pity that he hasn't found a partner yet."
???
This couldn't be what she thought it meant. He Yan quietly raised her eyes and glanced at the calm expression opposite her. She instantly felt admiration for him. This kind of concentration was not something that ordinary people could achieve.
I watched the little girl's expression change from alertness mixed with confusion to understanding mixed with disbelief, and finally her clear eyes were filled with sympathy for me.
Grandma, how worried is she that he won’t be able to marry a girl?
With such eloquence, if she were born in today's society, my grandmother would definitely be a top salesperson.
He was so praised that he could only eat his meal in silence with a blank face.
Looking at the door slamming shut in front of him, Lin Qing'an sighed silently, and in the blink of an eye he met the girl's clear gaze.
"Don't say it, I understand." With a sympathetic look on her face, He Yan tiptoed and patted his shoulder, and whispered to comfort him: "Brother Lin, are you being pushed to this point?"
Oh my, I don't know if my friend knows about her brother's embarrassing situation. We must chat about it via video tonight. I didn't expect that a man who is like a male god in daily life would be so embarrassed when facing the elders' urging to get married.
Hearing the subtle hint of schadenfreude in her tone, Lin Qing'an glanced down at her and then led her to the parking lot.
"What do you think of me?" Lin Qing'an suddenly asked in the car.
"Ah?" He Yan didn't react.
"Do you see what my grandma means?"
The little girl nodded silently.
"Then do you think we can try to get in touch?" Through his daily casual chats with his sister, he knew that it was best to be direct when dealing with her.
Huh? He Yan's eyes widened, and Bei Chi bit her lower lip. What does this mean?
No way, she is going to be Miaomiao’s sister-in-law?
This was her first reaction.
He Yan came back to her senses, stared at the man's thick hair, and thought with her chin on her hand. Brother Lin is handsome and intelligent, so it won't be a big deal if she gets in touch with him more.
Especially, thinking of her ex-boyfriend's parents, she silently clenched her fists. When she visited their home before, her ex-boyfriend's mother felt that her son finding her was a great blessing, and she was arrogant and domineering. Her words and deeds all seemed to complain that she was not good enough, as if she was reaching above her station.
Indeed, she admitted that in terms of her brain, she did look for her ex-boyfriend with the intention of marrying up.
But in daily life, it is obvious that she is the one who takes better care of others. If she didn't want to steal a high-quality sperm for her child, she wouldn't be so desperate.
After carefully looking the driver up and down, He Yan admitted that he was much better than her ex-boyfriend. With his looks, figure, demeanor, and brains, he was simply the father of her dream child.
Or, how about using the same old trick again (pretending to be good) and lure the person back home first?
Noticing the gazes behind him, Lin Qing'an straightened his back unconsciously. After feeling his own nervousness, he smiled.
Well, the girl was indeed quite interesting, and it was very comfortable to get along with her. After all, you could tell what she was thinking from her face, so there was no need to guess at all.
If he had to get married, he would not mind spending the rest of his life with such a person.
The only thing I need to worry about is that if conflicts arise in the future, I might be treated like a live-in son-in-law?
Looking at his hands tightly gripping the steering wheel, he pursed his lips silently. At least Miaomiao would definitely not stand on his side.
Thinking of the possible scenes that might appear, Lin Qing'an's brows relaxed and he felt that the crowded traffic outside the window was not so annoying anymore.
