"Third son, second son, you come upstairs with me to play chess. Let the three women chat." Grandpa Huo suddenly stood up and looked at his grandson and son.
"Um."
As soon as the three of them left, Grandma Huo turned back and looked at her with a smile, "Tingting, are you a little afraid of the third brother?"
"……No."
"Now it's just the three of us, so just listen and say what you have to say. Don't hold back. I can tell that the third child really likes you." Grandma Huo patted her hand reassuringly.
“The third child has never taken the initiative to hold anyone’s hand. You are the first. Listen to him, he’s a smart child. Think about your importance.”
Sitting on the other side of Xunting, Huo's mother also spoke up.
Listening to the complicated expressions on their faces, she lowered her eyes. Was it really true?
“Listen, there’s no need to rush to understand. Although I’m old, I can still wait for my great-grandson! You and the third son can spend some time together.”
"Grandma Huo will definitely live to be a hundred!" Xun Ting subconsciously looked at the old woman and smiled.
"Sweetie, what do you want to eat for lunch?"
"I'm fine with either."
Grandma Huo and Mom Huo cooked lunch themselves. When she tried to go in and help, the two elders wouldn't let her, so Xun Ting could only wait outside.
On the dining table
"Third brother, is your insomnia getting worse lately?"
Huo Lin kept putting food on the woman's plate, casually replying, "I don't have insomnia anymore."
"No more insomnia?" Grandma Huo's eyes widened in disbelief. The third son said he didn't have insomnia, not that he didn't have much insomnia. This... this means he's cured?
"Um."
Grandma Huo knew that her grandson was aloof and she wouldn't get any information from him, so she decided to ask Gu Zhu later.
After the meal, Grandma Huo chatted with Xun Ting about Huo Lin's past, including his childhood and embarrassing moments. She couldn't stop laughing; even villains can do shameful things.
Huo Lin, standing to the side, had a dark face and couldn't stand it any longer. "Grandma, say less."
“Listen to her, she’s your future daughter-in-law. It’s okay for me to tell her, we’re all family.” Grandma Huo glanced at her grandson, seemingly annoyed that he was being nosy.
"The Huo family only has one son. We can't do anything about the things he did when he was a child except to teach him a lesson."
"Master Huo only has one child? Then... then why is he called the third son?"
"Because his grandfather was the eldest son and his father was the second son, he was the third son."
"Oh, I see."
…
They chatted for an unknown amount of time, until it grew late, and the Huo family reluctantly saw them off.
Grandma Huo held Tingting's hand tightly and said, "Tingting, if that third son ever dares to bully you, come to the old house and find us."
"Okay, sure."
"Listen to that, remember to come visit more often when you have time."
"good."
As the vehicle drove away from the Huo family's residence, Xun Ting leaned against the seat and sighed. Fortunately, the Huo family members were easy to get along with.
"Have some water." Huo Lin took a bottle of mineral water from the car and handed it to the woman. It was clear that the woman got along very well with the Huo family while he was away.
In comparison, he seemed like a fierce and menacing figure, making Tingting feel uneasy.
"Mmm." Xun Ting immediately took the bottled water; she did feel her throat was a little dry.
Before she could even open the bottle, the villain suddenly grabbed the water, opened it, and handed it to her.
Xun Ting: "???" She's like the kind of person who can't even open a bottle cap? She feels like she could crush the top of someone's head!
