The group did not go home directly, but first sent Kong Yu and the others home, and then went to the town market to select ingredients.
"Your dad and his family are already here. Let's go buy some groceries first. If you want to go back to see them, I'll take you back now. Let my parents buy the groceries, and then we'll go home."
"No, that's not necessary. Come back after you buy the groceries."
Bai Shihan's reason for refusing was simple. It was not because she missed her parents, but because she also wanted to participate in shopping. Only in this way could she feel the family atmosphere.
"Okay, let's go buy some fruit to bring back."
"Yeah." The little girl nodded.
As it was almost noon, there were not many people at the market, but there were still quite a few stalls. After all, most of them were people from the countryside setting up stalls to sell things.
The fruits and vegetables in these towns are cheaper than those sold in cities. What’s more, they are all grown here, without much pollution, and are safer to eat.
"When we make money in the future, we will grow vegetables and fruits in the countryside. If possible, we can raise a dog or a cat, which would also be nice." Lin Xinyu suggested.
Bai Shihan had no idea what he said. She just imagined the scene in her mind and nodded in agreement.
The thought of being able to grow vegetables, raise pets, and grow flowers and plants with him in the countryside made Xiao Hanhan feel very happy. She didn't like any lively things, so she was easily satisfied as long as Lin Xinyu was by her side.
"Let's go."
"Uh-huh."
Bai Shihan nodded, and walked forward hand in hand with Lin Xinyu. The two of them shuttled between various vegetable and fruit stalls, asking about prices from time to time and looking at other things.
Lin Xinyu stood aside without saying a word, watching the little girl learning how to buy fruits. It was obvious that he had completely integrated himself into the role of a family member.
It seems that although Xiao Hanhan is shy, she is very thoughtful. If someone else were to do many things, they might not take them to heart at all, but Bai Shihan will do her best to help. There is only one thing she wants to do, which is to try her best to make everyone happy.
Maybe the little fool is a little clumsy in some aspects, but she always has a way to make everyone like her and be willing to love her.
"Oranges and bananas are softer when eaten. Grandma should like them."
Bai Shihan picked up an orange and weighed it, saying that the orange tasted sweet and was suitable for the elderly, and the orange peel was very crisp, so it was not difficult to peel it and was quite convenient.
Lin Xinyu nodded in agreement: "Oranges are indeed more suitable for grandma to eat. I said you are very picky about food, and you said I lied to you. Do you believe it now?"
“Hmm…”
Bai Shihan's cheeks turned slightly red. She must have been very happy to be praised by her boyfriend, but the little girl was usually shy, so she pretended to be indifferent. In fact, she was already very happy in her heart.
The two of them shopped for about half an hour and finally bought almost everything they needed. As for their parents, in addition to buying groceries, they also bought some winter clothes for the elderly.
"Dad, Mom, I'm going to take Shihan back first."
The couple did not refuse, because they could not do anything else if they stayed with the old lady, so they might as well go back and accompany her. After all, the old lady would definitely be very happy if her grandson and granddaughter-in-law went back to see her.
"Go back slowly."
"Know."
Lin Xinyu took Bai Shihan away, and before leaving, the little girl did not forget to wave goodbye to them.
After Xiaohanhan got in the car, Lin Xinyu deliberately teased her: "Do you know what you were like when I first met you?"
Bai Shihan had no idea what he wanted to say, so she shook her head and didn't respond.
"That's what you are."
After saying that, Lin Xinyu imitated the little girl's previous actions, shrinking in the corner of the driving seat, leaning against the window, not daring to get too close to her. Although his expression was a little exaggerated, he still expressed the so-called nervousness.
This behavior amused Bai Shihan, but she realized that the bad guy was imitating her, so she immediately pretended to be calm: "I'm not like that..."
Lin Xinyu interrupted her with a smile: "No matter what, it's fine as it is now. You are you, and you never need to deliberately change anything. I like you."
She used to be very seldom sentimental, but for some reason, every time she heard Lin Xinyu say such words, she would suddenly feel a warm current flowing from the depths of her heart to every part of her body, and her heart would beat faster and faster. Hearing such words from the mouth of the person she liked was a very strange feeling, as if she was drunk and unsteady.
"Um……"
The little girl pursed her lips and responded softly, glanced at Lin Xinyu secretly, then quickly lowered her head, her ears red.
Such a shy look made Lin Xinyu want to bully her.
He just stretched out his hand, grabbed Xiaohanhan's wrist, and pulled it slightly. The other party was pulled into his arms without any preparation and sat on his lap. Since it was the driving seat with a steering wheel, there was not much space to move around. Lin Xinyu simply moved the seat back. The two people were very close and could clearly feel each other's breath sprayed on their cheeks.
"You...don't move." The little girl felt a little uneasy being held by Lin Xinyu like this.
"Hmm~"
Lin Xinyu deliberately lowered his voice and said "hmm" softly, with a hint of temptation in his tone.
The little girl's face suddenly turned redder, and even her neck was red: "You, don't do this... It's not good to do this now..."
Her body was tense. After all, the car was parked on the side of the road. If someone suddenly passed by and saw them like this, it would be extremely embarrassing.
"I didn't mean anything. I just wanted you to know that you are so beautiful like this."
As Lin Xinyu spoke, he moved closer and kissed Bai Shihan on the forehead. The little girl trembled all over and wrapped her arms tightly around Lin Xinyu's waist, as if trying to relieve her tension.
Seeing this, Lin Xinyu was secretly happy.
This little girl looks smart and well-behaved, but she is actually very naive. Just some sweet words can make her so shy, not to mention that many things have happened between them. If it were an ordinary couple, the girl would only become bolder and bolder, but Bai Shihan is different. Even if everything has happened before, she will still be shy.
She can only be bolder when the lights are turned off, because then the other party cannot see her expression at all, and she cannot see the bad guys' evil eyes, so she can act recklessly.
Lin Xinyu took the opportunity to peck Xiaohanhan on the lips again.
Bai Shihan's eyes widened instantly when she reacted, and then she returned to her original cute look, but her little face was red, and even her breathing was a little rapid. Lin Xinyu knew that if he continued to flirt with her, he would lose control, so he quickly let go of the little girl and gently put her on the passenger seat.
Bai Shihan was very well behaved and sat quietly in the chair, but her little head was still buried in her chest, as if she didn't dare to look up at him. The scene was simply a combination of a little lamb and a wolf.
“Ahem…”
Lin Xinyu coughed twice to conceal the desire rising in his heart, turned around, started the car and drove towards his hometown.
The little girl sitting in the passenger seat still felt her cheeks burning, but she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because she could clearly feel the bad guy's behavior just now, and she was almost eaten by him in the car.
What's more, it was still broad daylight. Fortunately, the other party suppressed his thoughts. She didn't know why, but at that time she didn't have the slightest thought of stopping the bad guy.
…
Along the way, Lin Xinyu kept finding various topics to chat with her, and sometimes even reminded her to be careful, but most of the topics focused on his childhood stories.
The little girl had not yet recovered from her shock, but when she heard about the various things that happened to him in his childhood, she quickly became interested and sat by and listened with great interest, occasionally interjecting a few words. Lin Xinyu patiently answered all her questions and even made fun of himself to make her happy.
However, every time when she hurt herself, Bai Shihan didn’t feel happy, but felt a little distressed.
For example, he fell into the ridge of the field, landed on his face and was covered in mud. Lin Xinyu himself was laughing at how stupid he was at that time. He didn't take the right road, but insisted on taking a shortcut, which resulted in him eating some mud.
But the little girl didn't laugh. Instead, she asked him if he was in pain and if he was injured. This made Lin Xinyu feel inexplicably good. Even when the car drove into the village, he felt that the whole world became exceptionally bright.
"We're here. We're home."
Lin Xinyu stopped the car and turned his head to look at the little girl. The little girl was leaning on the car door and looking outside.
"Dad and the others are chatting outside." Bai Shihan was a little surprised. She rarely saw Bai Chen in this state.
She seldom even went to her grandfather's house. If her grandfather hadn't come to their house to find her one day, the silly little girl wouldn't have known that she even had a grandfather.
"Well, get off first."
Lin Xinyu helped Bai Shihan out of the car and walked over holding the little girl’s hand.
Because there were not many parking spaces at the entrance, Bai Chen and the others noticed it when the car came over. In addition, this car was the one he bought for Lin Xinyu, so they naturally knew it was them.
"You kid, I asked you to fatten Shihan up, but why did you become thinner instead?"
Even though Bai Chen usually doesn't get along well with Lin Xinyu, he couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw that he had lost weight.
"No, no, no, Uncle Bai, I've gained weight, gained weight." Lin Xinyu explained hurriedly, fearing that the little girl would take Bai Chen's words to heart.
Xiaohanhan is like this. If someone said she was not good enough before, she might privately think whether she had done something wrong. Now Lin Xinyu has almost changed her. She doesn't care about other people's opinions at all and just does her own thing, but...
The consequence is that Bai Shihan is particularly concerned about what others say about Lin Xinyu.
For example, if Bai Chen said that he had lost weight, the little girl would definitely remember it immediately, and think about cooking for Lin Xinyu in the future, and she would do it herself, including preparing all the meat and ribs, and she would make sure to feed him until he was fat.
Lin Xinyu didn’t know it before, but after experiencing it several times, he realized how much Xiao Hanhan cared about him. Seeing that he was tired and had a lot of work to do, he slept on his desk, so she took the opportunity to learn a lot of things that could help him.
Although he couldn't work overtime like Lin Xinyu every day, he still tried his best to help, which saved Lin Xinyu a lot of trouble.
The two of them get along better, so Lin Xinyu feels that Bai Shihan is a great assist for him. With her, he can get twice the result with half the effort.
"Uncle Bai, you must have seen it wrong. Shihan takes care of me every day, so how could I lose weight? Oh yes, it may be because she is by my side every day, and I feel that life is sweet every day, so I do look much more energetic than before." Lin Xinyu immediately found an excuse to cover it up.
But Bai Chen's expression suddenly turned a little bad.
My daughter takes care of you every day? As a father, he has never enjoyed such treatment, and he immediately felt envious.
Bai Chen couldn't help but glare at Lin Xinyu, and secretly decided to be nicer to his daughter in the future and successfully brought the little girl back.
"Indeed, he looks much better." Bai Chen naturally didn't dare to continue saying that he had lost weight. Lin Xinyu had already said that, and if he still didn't understand what he meant, that would definitely be impossible.
Just thinking about his daughter about to start the fattening plan and take care of Lin Xinyu in various ways, his heart felt a little aching. After all, this was the treatment he had never enjoyed, and now this brat of his had gotten it first.
Lin Xinyu replied with a smile: "Of course."
"You little brat, I'm warning you, you must not bully my Shi Han, otherwise don't blame me for turning against you!" There was a hint of threat in Bai Chen's words.
"Don't worry." Lin Xinyu agreed readily.
Xiao Hanhan is his future wife, how could he bully her? Of course, that’s another matter after turning off the lights at night.
"I'll trust you for now." Bai Chen snorted coldly.
However, Lin Xinyu soon noticed the change in the other party's expression. He looked threatening just now, but now he quickly put on a playful smile.
It wasn’t because of fickleness, but because grandma walked out of the room.
"grandmother."
"Hello, grandma."
Bai Shihan and Lin Xinyu shouted at the same time and went forward to meet them.
The grandmother touched the hands of her grandson and granddaughter-in-law lovingly, and even held them. She then stuffed the can of oranges into their hands and smiled: "This is for you to eat. You love canned food the most."
Hearing this, Lin Xinyu was stunned. He originally wanted to buy some for his grandmother, but unexpectedly, his grandmother would always leave a few cans for him to eat when he came back. This was very heartwarming, and Lin Xinyu was naturally very happy.
"Thank you grandma."
Bai Shihan was also very well behaved: "Grandma, this is a gift from me to you. I hope you like it."
As he spoke, he handed over the gift that he had prepared long ago.
"Come on, bring whatever you want. As long as you come back healthy, I'll be very happy."
That’s what the old man thinks.
It’s simple, I just hope that my family can be safe and healthy every year.
