Chapter 91: Chapter 91: No Need for His Help.
On the other side, Lou Zhaonian had just come out of the bathroom when he received a call from his granddaughter, Lou Xinyu.
"Grandpa, where did you go? Why are both you and Brother Xining not home?"
"Xinyu, I am with Brother William along with Xining." Lou Zhaonian’s attitude towards Lou Xinyu was completely different compared to that towards Ran Xiangsi.
Lou Xinyu had called because she felt bored after finding the house empty upon returning home, and was surprised to hear that her grandfather was at Brother William’s place?
She instantly became excited and quickly said, "Grandpa, you and Brother Xining are both there? Why didn’t you take me along?"
"Weren’t you out?" Lou Zhaonian smiled. His granddaughter always got excited whenever she heard William’s name.
"I don’t care, Grandpa, I want to see Brother William. Can you bring him home?" Lou Xinyu pouted, knowing that her grandfather doted on her and would never refuse her request. freёnovelkiss.com
"But this..." Lou Zhaonian hesitated a bit.
Lou Xinyu grew more insistent, "Grandpa! You have to bring Brother William back! Please, Grandpa..."
"...Alright, Grandpa will try to figure something out." Lou Zhaonian sighed and agreed. Then he added, "You stay home and prepare dinner yourself."
"Huh? Why? Can’t the servants do it? I just got my nails done..." Lou Xinyu complained, a bit reluctantly.
Unable to argue with her, Lou Zhaonian relented, "Tell the servants to prepare the meal, and just say you did it."
Lou Xinyu paused for a moment before understanding what Lou Zhaonian meant, "Alright, Grandpa. I’ll give the instructions right away!"
...
Lou Zhaonian returned to the living room.
Ran Xiangsi was still figuring out how to make tea, with Xing Chen by her side, watching her actions with a smile in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Lou Xining, the superfluous presence, was downing cup after cup of tea, not savoring it at all.
Lou Zhaonian took a quick glance at the three people present, leaned on his cane, and started to focus his attention on Xing Chen.
"Ah, getting old is tough. I just went out for a few hours, and now my back hurts so much that I can barely stand straight." As soon as Lou Zhaonian spoke, Lou Xining quickly moved over.
"Are you alright, Grandpa?" Lou Xining was still very filial. Although he was a psychology expert, he had many friends in orthopedics and knew how important the lumbar spine was, which made him even more concerned.
Xing Chen also got up and walked over to Lou Zhaonian, frowning and asking, "Grandpa Lou, should I help you upstairs to rest for a while?"
Lou Zhaonian quietly let go of Lou Xining’s hand and, seeing Xing Chen coming over, hurriedly grabbed his hand, "No need, Grandpa has been out for a while and should head back now. Chen’er, can you take Grandpa home?"
Being sent home would definitely mean taking a rest for a bit.
And this way, he could bring Xing Chen in front of Xinyu.
Lou Zhaonian’s plan was quite clever.
Feeling a bit odd about being sidelined by his own grandfather, Lou Xining quickly said, "Grandpa, I can go back with you. There’s no need for him to take you."
Lou Xining’s unintentionally spoken words earned him a glare from Lou Zhaonian, "You child’s play! Your car ride’s too bumpy. Grandpa’s back is aching because of your driving! Chen’er drives more smoothly!"
