Chapter 272

It was a long time since they had last met after all . Even if he looked familiar, grandma would not call out to him first for fear that she might have recognized the wrong person due to her age .

But, who knew that after the two of them met eyes, the handsome young man stiffened momentarily before walking over toward her and greeting out politely, “Grandma . ”

Grandma was in disbelief .

“Little Chen?”

“Yes . ”

That single reply had grandma, who had only stopped weeping moments earlier, brimming with tears once more . She strode forth emotionally as her hardened wrinkles quivered . “It’s really you . You’ve returned!”

Lu Yanchen was a little confused, but he made sure to not express it on his face .

“I just asked Littly yesterday and she said that you were still abroad . Are you intending to give her a surprise?” Grandma asked happily, “You should have returned earlier . She has always been waiting for you…”

Even though grandma’s tone was soft, it was filled with heavy emotions . “How have you been abroad for the past two years?”

Lu Yanchen nodded his head . “I’ve been fine . ”

Abroad? Why would grandma say that he was abroad? Also, she does not seem to know about their breakup .

“Grandma, why are you here?”

“I’m here to visit Fei Fei, Littly’s sister . I’ve told you about it before…” As she continued, she inquired curiously, “What about you? Why are you here? Is there anyone in your family that’s injured as well?”

“No, I’m here to settle some things . ”

When grandma heard that, she heaved a sigh of relief before smiling out, “That’s good . Little Chen, go get busy first . Once you’re done, come visit me at the hospital . ”

“I’ll send you back . ”

“It’s alright, there’s no need . ”

“It’s fine, I’m not busy,” As he said that, Lu Yanchen turned around and led the way .

Mo Ziying came forward to help support grandma before whispering, “Mum, this is?”

Grandma was all smiles right now . “Littly’s boyfriend . ”

“Littly has a boyfriend!” Mo Ziying was astounded .

Grandma sniggered out happily while thinking in her heart, ‘I’m not even going to tell you that they’ve been together for 4 – 5 years now!’

Along the way back, grandma’s wrinkled face was filled with nothing but a blissful grin as she chatted with Lu Yanchen from time to time . With that, Lu Yanchen was 100% certain that grandma did not know about their breakup .

Why did she not tell grandma about it?

Did she think that they would still be together one day …?

At that thought, Lu Yanchen felt as though his heartstrings were being strummed once more .

After grandma returned to her ward, she smiled at Mo Ziying with a prideful expression, “Don’t you think that that child is particularly handsome and so compatible with our Littly?”

Mo Ziying was still worried . “What’s the name of that boy? What’s his family like?”

“His parents are still around and he has three brothers . The rest? Let Littly tell you herself…”

Grandma was tired as she laid down on the bed and closed her eyes, beseeching her daughter before sleeping, “Ziying, don’t tell Littly about us bumping into Little Chen today . ”

If she were to know about it, there would be no more surprise!

When Shi Guang arrived, grandma had just fallen asleep .

Because she was worried, Mo Ziying wanted to ask Shi Guang more about the situation . But, when she thought about her mother’s beseeching, she held it back in .

When grandma woke up once more, it was a little late . However, the soup was still kept warm in the thermal flask .

Shi Guang hurriedly poured her a bowl . All smiles, grandma sipped at the warm soup while chatting with Shi Guang . Eventually, she asked, “Have you been in contact with Little Chen recently?” She did not know if the surprise had been let slip .

Shi Guang nodded her head . “Yes . ”

Grandma was ecstatic . They must have met! She then chuckled out warmly, “So, when are you bringing him to come visit me?”

“When he returns, I guess . ”

Grandma was stunned . “…”

When she had first met with Lu Yanchen earlier on, she was so overwhelmed by happiness that she did not think too much about things . But now that she had calmed down, she suddenly realized that something seemed a little off between the both of them…
