Chapter 177 Meeting Grandma



The car drove forward at a steady pace. Zhong Xinyi broke the silence, "Um, just drop me off at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative."

Looking at the small backpack beside the woman through the mirror, Gu Shaokai casually asked, "Where are you going with that bag?"

"No…"

Zhong Xinyi changed her mind at the last minute, saying, "Go home."

Gu Shaokai had long known that she and her grandmother depended on each other for survival, so as soon as the holiday started, he only thought about going home to see his grandmother as soon as possible.

This is a good time to meet the parents.

“It’s getting late. If you turn back now to catch a ride, you might not make it in time.” He handed her the wristwatch in his hand.

Zhong Xinyi glanced at her watch and thought for a moment, "There should still be time."

However, it was almost dark when I got home.

The time wasn't right, so Gu Shaokai didn't continue.

The supply and marketing cooperative arrived quickly.

Zhong Xinyi picked up her bag, said a word of thanks, and got off the bus without looking back.

Even in the bustling supply and marketing cooperative, he could still spot the young woman at a glance; it seemed she was buying clothes for her grandmother.

Gu Shaokai parked the car on the side of the road, got out and went into the shop. He told the shop assistants to go buy some things, as he wanted to stay here and watch over the young woman to prevent her from running away.

Ten minutes later, he came running back, panting, "Brother Kai, I've bought everything."

"Hmm, not bad, put them all in the trunk." I can't let the little woman see this.

One of the simple-minded guys asked curiously, "Brother Kai, what are you looking at?"

Kai's eyes were fixed on the supply and marketing cooperative; could there be a beautiful woman inside?

But looking around, all you see are a group of elderly women.

What's so interesting about it?

Does Kai have unique tastes?

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry back to the shop."

The young woman was about to come over, so Gu Shaokai had no choice but to send her back to the shop.

Zhong Xinyi weighed the money in her pocket and realized that buying her grandmother a decent quality dress was no problem at all.

After a heated argument with the boss, we finally settled on a price of twenty yuan.

Grabbing the clothes, she walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative with a smug look on her face, only to catch a glimpse of Gu Shaokai's flamboyant face.

Her smile froze instantly. "You, what are you still doing here?"

No, his shop seems to be here too, so he might not be waiting for her.

The man opened the car door. "Get in."

Zhong Xinyi was taken aback; they really were waiting for her.

He smiled deliberately and said, "I can catch the bus myself, no need to trouble you."

Gu Shaokai didn't say anything, he simply handed the watch to her.

"If we don't hurry, the last bus will leave."

At that moment, Zhong Xinyi didn't have time to think about why the man knew her whereabouts.

Only one thought remained in my mind: I had to go home today.

I haven't seen my grandmother for a month, and I don't know how her health is.

Upon arriving at the station, they were told that the last train of the day would not depart.

Zhong Xinyi felt a chill run down her spine; it meant she wouldn't be able to go home today.

Gu Shaokai smiled, as if even the heavens were on her side.

But seeing the little woman's downcast expression, he didn't feel happy.

He gently pulled her into his arms. "Don't be sad, you still have me."

The man's words deeply moved her.

At this moment, all she wanted was to lean on his shoulder for warmth.

"I'll take you back."

Huh… Zhong Xinyi immediately pulled away from the man's embrace, asking uncertainly again, "What do you mean?"

Gu Shaokai chuckled, "Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I might as well take you home."

After thinking it over in her heart, Zhong Xinyi quickly refused, "No way."

It was already dark when they got home. They couldn't let the man continue driving at night, which would mean he had to stay overnight. But how could they explain that to his grandmother?

Gu Shaokai was surprised that she still firmly refused. "Why not?"

Chung Hsin-yi: "If you go there, my grandma will misunderstand."

That suited him perfectly. "Anyway, I'm pursuing you now, so it doesn't matter if Grandma misunderstands a little."

Zhong Xinyi was completely unaware that the man's use of the word "grandmother" sounded very affectionate.

"Hmph...you wish."

That would satisfy him.

"Aren't you in a hurry to go home and see your grandmother?"

This question stumped Zhong Xinyi; two little figures were fighting in her mind.

"Okay, but you can't say anything inappropriate in front of my grandmother, and you have to leave immediately the next day."

She had to make her point clear upfront.

I promise you.

We'll talk about the next day later. Maybe he'll win over his grandmother and she'll let him stay.

Gu Shaokai knew the young woman would agree, because her grandmother was so important to her.

It takes at least two hours to drive from the city to the countryside.

Seeing the young woman's tired face, he said, "If you're sleepy, close your eyes and take a nap. I'll wake you up when we get to the village."

"good."

Chung Hsin-yi couldn't resist the drowsiness any longer. Now that she had relaxed, she felt both tired and sleepy.

At this moment, she was completely unaware that she was completely unguarded in front of Gu Shaokai.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep in less than a minute.

To make the little woman more comfortable, Gu Shaokai deliberately slowed down.

More than three hours later, Gu Shaokai slowly drove into Maple Leaf Village, which is said to have beautiful maple leaves every autumn.

He only knew that the young woman's home was in this village, but he didn't know the exact location.

I parked the car on the side of the road and stared at the little woman's sleeping face, momentarily mesmerized.

She is truly beautiful inside and out!

Her skin was as white as snow, her lips were naturally red, and her delicate and pretty face was perfectly complemented by every single strand of hair.

Seemingly sensing the change in the atmosphere around her, Zhong Xinyi moved her eyelids and slowly opened her eyes, only to see the man's face so close to hers.

He instinctively slapped her, then quickly sat up, asking, "What are you doing?"

I carefully checked my clothes and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that they were intact.

Gu Shaokai was slapped for no reason and rubbed his back teeth.

Zhong Xinyi realized she might have misunderstood him and quickly apologized, "Um, I'm sorry, does it hurt?"

Gu Shaokai wasn't angry with her at all, but he still needed to play the victim.

"It hurts so much, my face is burning."

Zhong Xinyi panicked and immediately checked with her hand. There didn't seem to be any marks at all, so why did it hurt?

Gu Shaokai enjoyed the woman's closeness; she had a faint, refreshing fragrance that was soothing to the soul.

Hesitantly, he asked, "Are you sure it hurts a lot?"

Gu Shaokai: "Of course, it might already be swollen."

Zhong Xinyi was even more puzzled; she hadn't used much force.

After thinking it over and over, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the man's slightly upturned lips and realized that she had been deceived.

She quickly pushed the man's shoulder away, saying, "You did this on purpose."

How could she be so stupid?

Gu Shaokai took the woman's hand and lowered himself to her side, saying, "Don't be angry. I just wanted you to care about me more."

Zhong Xinyi pulled her hand back; she seemed to be used to men's smooth talk.
