Liang Zhirou turned her face away, not wanting to speak.
Her boyfriend's thought process is different from normal people.
Chen Lu walked over to the holly and reached out to grab a leaf. "There will be fewer mosquitoes in the future, so Auntie can come out for more walks."
As soon as they finished speaking, they saw an elderly couple walking towards them. The old man, who was over seventy, was sitting in a wheelchair, while the slightly younger old woman was slowly pushing him from behind.
Just as Chen Lu stepped aside, the old man suddenly pointed at him and asked the old woman in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Xiao Hang is back?"
?
Before Chen Lu could speak, the old lady gently patted the old man, "Your grandson isn't that tall! National Day is long over, Xiao Hang went to school."
The old lady smiled at the two of them somewhat shyly. She wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked very refined and capable.
"I'm sorry, this old man only remembers me most of the time now..." she said apologetically.
For some reason, Chen Lu felt that while her tone was sad, it also seemed to contain a hint of pride and happiness.
After saying that, the old lady took a tissue and wiped the old man's mouth, her eyes full of affection.
"Xiao Hang, have you found a partner yet?" The old man clearly hadn't listened to his wife at all, a faint smile appearing on his wrinkled face.
Chen Lu bent down and smiled along, "Yes, Grandpa, isn't it beautiful?"
Anyway, someone his age should be calling someone "Grandpa" anyway, so let him. It won't hurt him. As long as the old man is happy.
The old man was indeed even happier, and his previously dull eyes became much clearer. "...Good, good. Once you find a job and get married, Grandpa will have no more worries."
The old woman sighed softly, seemingly used to it, and said to Chen Lu, "You look so young, are you a college student?"
"I just graduated, and my girlfriend is still in college."
While Chen Lu was chatting, Liang Zhirou slowly squatted down and wrapped the blanket covering the old man's legs around him.
Her movements were skillful and meticulous, and she quickly wrapped the old man's legs tightly.
People with leg problems are prone to cold legs, let alone in this kind of weather.
The old woman was somewhat surprised. "Young lady, you really know how to take care of people. And you're so pretty too, a perfect match, how wonderful..."
Liang Zhirou stood up, pursed her lips, and initially wanted to stand behind Chen Lu, but remembering what Chen Lu had said to her, she stopped in her tracks, nodded slightly, and whispered, "I'm more familiar with this..."
Older people tend to be more talkative. After chatting for a few more minutes, the old lady pushed the old man away.
Why are we out here?
"You asked me to take you out for a stroll today, didn't you?" the old lady said softly.
"I didn't say I was going back."
"Oh well, since we're already out here, just keep me company for a while."
"Sigh, I really spoil you too much."
"Li Jianjun, you've gone too far! You were yelling for so long yesterday, and now you're saying I'm the one who's coming out?"
After parting ways, the two couples, one old and one young, walked in opposite directions.
"These two old folks have such a good relationship... Will we be this happy when we're old?" Liang Zhirou asked softly.
Chen Lu frowned. "I thought you were going to ask if we'd grow old together. Don't curse me. Besides, you'll be happier than this when you're old."
Liang Zhirou glanced back at the elderly couple who were walking away, then leaned over and tightly took Chen Lu's arm.
"Because we'll definitely grow old together." The girl was absolutely certain of this, then asked, "Why are you a little insecure about our relationship? Don't you believe I'll always love you?"
"No way, I believe it completely."
Liang Zhirou suddenly felt a little strange. Chen Lu kept telling her that she needed to be more confident, but he himself was clearly a bit insecure.
At least that's true in matters of the heart.
It's like a doctor can't heal himself. He's so good at giving her a sense of security, but that's exactly what he lacks most.
"It's okay if you don't believe me." Liang Zhirou snorted softly, smiled slightly, tightened her grip on Chen Lu's arm, and rested her head on his shoulder.
Whether it was that girl who hurt him like this is no longer important.
A sudden gust of wind blew, ruffling the girl's hair and rustling the surrounding greenery, carrying the girl's gentle words to Chen Lu's ears.
"Life is long, I can prove it slowly..."
