Looking at the large and small bags in Zhu Lingling's hands, the old man frowned and looked at the nanny and maid following behind him: "Lingling is a guest, how can we watch her take things!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the bags in Zhu Lingling's hands were immediately taken away.
Lan Xi watched this scene, but the smile on her face remained. She glanced at everyone. The old man seemed not to notice and stretched out his hand to Zhu Lingling: "Come here, child!"
Zhu Lingling glanced at Lan Xi, and when she saw her nod slightly, she walked over and said, "Grandpa!"
Zhu Lingling had a shy smile on her face, clasped her hands together in front of her, and bowed respectfully.
"You kid, why are you still so timid? Your lady needs you so much behind you, you better stand at attention!"
Mr. Shi sighed and patted Zhu Lingling on the shoulder.
Lan Xi agreed, "Yes! You don't know how many times I've told her, but she's still like this. You have to give me some advice!"
The old man was delighted by what Lan Xi said and burst into laughter.
When Zhu Lingling saw Lan Xi's look before she turned around, it was calm and emotionless!
The group walked into the villa gate happily and saw Shi Tinghan coming to greet them. He was wearing casual clothes today.
The hair that is usually combed up is hanging down obediently today. It no longer has the coldness of the past, but has a more refreshing look!
As soon as he saw his grandson, the smile on Mr. Shi's face instantly disappeared, and he began to lecture his grandson:
"You didn't even go out to greet guests when they came to your house. Where are your manners?"
Shi Tinghan was not afraid either. He leaned against the wall and looked at Lan Xi from a distance:
"What kind of guest is Lan Xi? Judging from the way you like her, Grandpa, she is more like your granddaughter!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a slipper flew straight towards him. Old Master Shi, who was standing not far away, said with a cold face: "According to what you said, I am wronging you by being the grandson of the Shi family!"
Lan Xi changed her shoes and still stood beside Mr. Shi with her arm around him, staring at Shi Tinghan. When she saw him reach out to grab the flying shoe, she smiled playfully and said:
"Grandpa Shi, don't be angry. Brother Shi has a childish temper!"
Shi Tinghan grabbed his slippers, listened to Lan Xi teasing him, and looked at his grandfather: "Grandson doesn't dare!"
"Don't you dare! I see you've already had an opinion. Go away! I'm going to have dinner with my precious granddaughter. Don't be an eyesore here!"
Old Master Shi reached out and pushed Shi Tinghan away, a look of disgust on his face.
The next second, the corners of his mouth lifted naturally, and he looked at Lan Xi: "Let's go! Xixi, look at what delicious food I, the old man, have prepared for you!"
As I walked down the corridor, I heard a woman's voice: "Grandpa, who are you talking about, your precious granddaughter?"
The old man and Lan Xi were talking about something excitedly, but when he heard these words, his face quickly fell and he looked over with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.
A woman with a low ponytail was standing next to the piano in the living room. She looked like she hadn't had time to change her clothes. She was still wearing a suit and skirt, with her hands behind her back and a look of resentment on her face.
"Ting... Ting Shan!" The old man seemed to want to explain, but the words were already out, so he had to pretend to be calm: "How dare you eavesdrop on people's conversations, kid!"
The woman is Shi Tinghan's sister Shi Tingshan, who currently serves as the director of the Shi Group. She is a young lady of the Shi family who has truly climbed up from the grassroots.
She sneered, "Grandpa, that's interesting. This house is so big, does that mean I have to find a place to hide in order to avoid overhearing you talking?"
Then he looked at Lan Xi and nodded at her: "Miss Lan!"
Lan Xi was amused by her serious expression. She lowered her head and whispered something in Mr. Shi's ear, and the other party smiled and nodded.
Letting go of Mr. Shi's hand, Lan Xi walked over and took Shi Tingshan upstairs: "Alright, dinner will be served soon. You are still wearing your coat. Come on, change!"
In the crowd, Zhu Lingling looked at Lan Xi's back, thought for a moment, and still didn't follow.
"Lingling, what did you bring? Come here and introduce them to me!" The old man looked at the gift bag on the coffee table and called Zhu Lingling with a headache.
Suddenly the old man called her, and Zhu Lingling hurried over and began to introduce the old man.
"You are so successful now!" Shi Tingshan said in a sarcastic tone as she walked upstairs.
Lan Xi reached out and gently pinched the small of her waist: "Are you starting to laugh at me too?"
Shi Tingshan dodged while reaching out to slap Lan Xi's hand away: "You're the talk of the town in the wealthy circles right now! Everyone's guessing what you'll do next!"
Lan Xi sighed: "You know I'm just a puppet of our queen!"
