Chapter 208: Deciding to Take Yao Yao Home

Lin Ping smiled meaningfully, "Alright, I'll be back in two hours."

He even thoughtfully closed the door for them.

These pointed remarks made Lin Yuyao's face flush.

She asked Fu Huaiyi to sit down first, while she squatted down on the ground, tidying up the things she had brought from home, and asked, "Is there something you want to talk to me about privately?"

Fu Huaiyi said, "Well... I told my grandfather about us."

Lin Yuyao paused in her movements.

She suddenly remembered that Yi Yunshuo had once said that Fu Huaiyi's grandfather had introduced him to a girl of similar social standing, but Fu Huaiyi and the girl didn't click and he refused.

She had seen that girl before; she was beautiful and elegant, like a Hong Kong star.

But Yi Yunshuo also said that his family probably wouldn't approve of their relationship.

Lin Yuyao took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "What did he say?"

“He thinks I’m lying to him, he doesn’t believe me, and he says he won’t listen unless I bring the person to him.”

Lin Yuyao: "..." How can I believe this or not?

Who would joke about something like this?

Why don't you believe it?

That old man is really strange.

"What if he's not satisfied after we meet?"

"We're not going to live with him anyway, so it's his business if he's not happy."

Fu Huaiyi took a deep breath, walked up to Lin Yuyao, and squatted down to be at eye level with her.

"Yaoyao, are you... determined enough?"

Lin Yuyao blinked. "What's the sentiment?"

Fu Huaiyi: "..."

"You agreed to be my girlfriend before the Lunar New Year, didn't you?"

Lin Yuyao nodded gently.

Even though she nodded, he still felt very insecure.

She appeared too calm; he always felt her heart wasn't firm enough.

She will definitely back down when faced with obstacles.

That's why he never dared to tell his grandfather about their affair.

"We're dating with marriage in mind, aren't we?"

Lin Yuyao nodded again, "Of course, any relationship that doesn't aim for marriage is just playing around."

Hearing her say that, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“As long as you’re convinced that we can get married, that’s all that matters. Grandpa has a bad temper, lately…” Fu Huaiyi’s head ached when he thought about how Grandpa misunderstood him and Yi Yunshuo.

"He's getting old, so his behavior and speech might be a little strange. Don't worry about it, just pretend he's talking nonsense. Just remember one thing: no matter what he says or does, we must get married."

Lin Yuyao was a little confused.

She didn't know if the old man found it strange, but she felt that Fu Huaiyi's words were rather odd.

After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Is your grandfather getting old and having some mental problems?"

Otherwise, why would their behavior and speech be so strange?

Fu Huaiyi: "..."

“Yes, that’s right, he’s just getting old, and sometimes he has mental problems.” He paused for a moment, then added, “It’s intermittent, not a constant problem.”

Lin Yuyao nodded, indicating her understanding. "People get confused easily when they get older. My grandma is like that too. Don't worry, I won't mind if he talks nonsense."

"So you agree to come with me to meet my family?"

Lin Yuyao: "..." Did I agree?

"Isn't this... a bit too fast?"

"No, they're just here to see the kids and celebrate the New Year. They'll go back to their hometown in a few days."

Isn't this forcing someone into a difficult situation?

She felt things were progressing too fast.

"I need to tell my parents."

"Of course, I'll call them with you in a bit."

Since we're so far away and can't talk in person, we can only make a phone call.

"when to go?"

"Tomorrow, is that alright with you? If it's inconvenient, a couple of days later is fine too."

Two years from now and tomorrow seem to make no difference.

"Then let's go after we take Lin Ping to school tomorrow."

"That's fine, it's on the way anyway."

Is that it?

But... she was suddenly going to his house to meet his family, and she was completely unprepared. She felt very nervous.

But she had already agreed without really understanding what was going on, and the date had already been set.

After Lin Ping returned with the groceries, rice, and oil he bought, the two of them were about to go out again.

Lin Ping looked completely bewildered. "You two have to go outside first? Or should I leave again?"

"This is none of your business, you should rest."

Why would he rest during the day?

"It's not safe outside. You two don't have a marriage certificate. Be careful you don't get arrested and charged with hooliganism."

"Shut up, what nonsense are you thinking all day? I'm going out to call my parents."

Didn't you just call when you came back?

"Something came up and I forgot to tell you."

"what's up?"

"None of your business." Her voice came from downstairs.

Before Lin Ping could say anything more, they had already walked far away.

Lin Ping scratched his head, looking puzzled.

At that moment, the door opposite Fu Huaiyi on the fourth floor opened.

Pan Yi opened the door, looked up, and met Lin Ping's gaze.

Lin Ping didn't recognize him, assuming he was just a neighbor, and greeted him with a smile.

Pan Yi smiled and asked, "You're back after the New Year?"

"Yes, I just got back."

"I remember a girl lived upstairs, you are her..."

“I am her younger brother, and I study nearby.”

"Oh, so you must be in college, right?"

"Yes."

"It's pretty awesome."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "It's alright, there are a lot of college students in the south of the city."

"People who can get into university are all very capable. In my hometown, only one person from several villages can get into university each year."

"Oh, you're from out of town too?"

“Yes.” Pan Yi pointed to the house behind him and said, “My wife is about to give birth, and conditions in the countryside are not good, so we came to the city to give birth. So, she’s staying in my brother’s house now.”

Since they had nothing better to do, the two started chatting casually.

Downstairs, Lin Yuyao also made a phone call back home.

Lin Dawei and Ye Lian hadn't been back long when they were called back to answer a phone call.

As soon as the call connected, Ye Lian asked, "Yu Yao, is there something you forgot to mention?"

"It's nothing serious, it's just..." she stammered, suddenly unsure how to begin.

Ye Lian said, "You child, just say what's on your mind. Why are you beating around the bush with your mother?"

“I…” She glanced back at Fu Huaiyi, covered the microphone and whispered, “You should go away first.”

Fu Huaiyi: "..." Is there anything I can't hear?

I need to go further.

Okay, then I'll go somewhere further away.

He took a few steps back, but Lin Yuyao felt it wasn't enough, so she waved for him to continue and walk a little further away.

Fu Huaiyi had no choice but to retreat further, until he was backed up to the base of the opposite wall.

Suddenly there was no sound on her end, and Ye Lian on the other end kept trying to reach her, so she thought there was a problem with the signal.

Lin Yuyao waited until Fu Huaiyi had retreated to a satisfactory distance before speaking.

"Mother, I'm listening."

"Listen up! Did you lose signal just now?"

Uh……

"What were you trying to say to me? I didn't hear you."

"I've started dating someone."
