XYLFTL Chapter 15

Chapter 16

Lin Father was already irritated by what had just happened, and seeing the secretary like this, he furrowed his brows and said, “What’s the rush?”

The secretary didn’t even dare to take a breath and said, “President Lin, all the projects we’ve been preparing for recently have all called to say they’re canceling their cooperation…”

Lin Father’s face suddenly changed, and he asked, “Why?”

“How could this happen, honey!” Lin Mother also got worked up.

The whole family knew what kind of situation this was. In previous years, due to Lin Father’s health problems, he rarely appeared in public, and didn’t participate in many activities. The company was just doing alright.

This year, he’s been feeling better and started going out to negotiate cooperation.

Lin Yuan’s face tightened as she thought: “Is the company going bankrupt? I have to get as much money as possible before it goes bankrupt.”

Lin Mother was still pressing the secretary to find out what was going on.

Lin Father suddenly thought, “Right, the girl next to Anping, it must be her. Was it her at the hospital last time?”

Lin Mother suddenly understood and said regretfully, “Yes, it was her.”

Lin Yuan heard this and thought, “Did I cause all this trouble? ”

What does it have to do with her? Is it that she’s not strong enough to be defeated by a young girl? Lin Yuan was curious about Shen Xiaoyou’s identity.

Lin Father immediately ran out to chase Shen Xiaoyou.

He blocked Shen Xiaoyou and Anping and said, “I want to say a few words to my daughter.”

Shen Xiaoyou and Anping exchanged glances, and Anping looked around suspiciously and said, “There’s no daughter of yours here?”

“No, Anping, my daughter, I’m talking about you. I only have you as my biological daughter.” Lin Father didn’t care about Lin Yuan’s feelings at this time.

Shen Xiaoyou found it funny that he didn’t even know his own daughter’s nickname.

Lin Mother and Lin Yuan, who had followed them out, heard these words, and Lin Yuan’s eyes immediately revealed a hateful expression.

Lin Mother patted Lin Yuan and said, “Yuan Yuan, the most important thing right now is…”

“Mom, I understand,” Lin Yuan pretended to be well-behaved and feigned grievance.

“Didn’t I say it already? You don’t have me as a daughter, and I won’t acknowledge you,” Anping said without any reservation.

Lin Father was about to grab Anping, but Shen Xiaoyou stopped him.

Shen Xiaoyou revealed an impatient expression, “What do you want? I haven’t even ruined your family’s livelihood, and you don’t even have the courage to start over. You’re really trash.”

Saying that, she protected Anping and walked past.

After sending Anping into the car, she turned back and said, “It’s best to be careful. This is just me taking revenge for Anping. I don’t like you either.”

After saying that, she didn’t give Lin Father any chance and left directly.

Back in the car, Shen Xiaoyou carefully asked Grandmother, “Grandmother, are you okay?”

Grandmother smiled and shook her head, “I’m fine. I was just brought here. It’s a good thing you came. I’m really getting old and muddled. I actually believed them.”

“It’s not your fault, Grandmother. They took advantage of your weakness, which is Anping,” Shen Xiaoyou comforted her.

Anping hugged Grandmother and said, “Grandmother, you scared me to death. Luckily, I have Xiaoyou.”

“My girlfriend~” Anping said deliberately.

Shen Xiaoyou’s ears instantly turned red.

Grandmother waved her hand as if shooing away a puppy, “Go, go, go, sit in the front. Of course, we have to thank Xiaoyou.”

Shen Xiaoyou said embarrassedly, “We’re all family!”

Anping, who had just moved to the front seat, kissed Shen Xiaoyou on the face and said, “That’s right, family.”

Shen Xiaoyou was embarrassed to do this in front of the elderly and used the excuse of driving to tell Anping to sit properly.

Grandmother pretended not to see it in the back.

City J in the summer felt even more beautiful. Although it rained a lot, the rain was its characteristic.

After arriving home, Grandmother invited the two to rest. Anping pushed Shen Xiaoyou into the bedroom to let her rest, while she was going to help Grandmother.

However, Shen Xiaoyou grabbed Anping’s hand and wrapped her arm around Anping’s waist.

Anping said shyly, “What are you doing?”

Shen Xiaoyou gently planted a kiss on her face and said, “Taking ‘revenge’ for what happened in the car just now.”

Anping pretended to dislike it, but she was very happy inside.

Shen Xiaoyou frowned and said, “Can you be a little shorter than me?”

Anping pretended to be troubled but still squatted down a little and said, “I can’t control my height, but my brain can control my legs.”

Shen Xiaoyou smiled happily and immediately kissed Anping on the forehead and said, “A reward for the brain~”

After that, she told Anping to stand up straight and not squat.

Anping seemed to have forgotten that she was going to help Grandmother and asked, “Just a forehead reward? What about me?”

Shen Xiaoyou thought: “Does this even count?”

“You can be rewarded anytime. Let’s go help Grandmother,” Shen Xiaoyou said and walked out of the room.

Anping hummed and followed behind.

After dinner, the two helped Grandmother organize her things.

Some of Grandmother’s old belongings were taken out.

Grandmother looked at a pile of things and said, “Will it all fit? Or should we leave some unused things here?”

Anping asked Grandmother, “Which things do you want to leave here?”

“These clothes that can’t be worn anymore, old things, things from your childhood, things from when I was young, let’s leave them here,” Grandmother said, pointing one by one.

Shen Xiaoyou shook her head and said, “It’s okay, Grandmother, it will all fit. You’ll miss these things in the future, so it’s better to take them all. I’ve called a truck, it will definitely fit.”

Grandmother’s eyes instantly revealed joy.

Anping looked at Shen Xiaoyou and felt that she was much more thoughtful than herself. Such a good person is her girlfriend, she’s so happy.

After they had roughly packed up, the truck could only park at the entrance of the village. Shen Xiaoyou first drove back and forth three or four times to transport the things.

When she returned, Anping told her to rest well, while she and Grandmother went to say goodbye to some neighbors.

Shen Xiaoyou nodded.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, she looked at the room.

Shen Xiaoyou felt strange. She clearly hadn’t been here many times, but now looking at it empty, she felt a little sad.

Maybe it’s because Anping is here!

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Xiaoyou slowly fell asleep.

When she woke up again, it was Anping waking her up.

“Sister, sister, go sleep in the car!” Anping gently patted Shen Xiaoyou.

Her movements were so gentle. Shen Xiaoyou got up and said, “You can shake me harder, otherwise it’s hard for me to get up.”

“I can’t bear to!” Anping said coquettishly.

Shen Xiaoyou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She got up and walked outside, first helping Grandmother into the car.

Anping told her to sit in the back seat, which was spacious enough to sleep in.

Shen Xiaoyou obediently listened.

As soon as she got into the car, Grandmother patted her leg and said, “Come, lie on Grandmother’s lap.”

Shen Xiaoyou felt embarrassed, as Grandmother was so old.

Grandmother laughed and said, “It’s okay, Anping gets carsick, so she lies down like this. She’s been doing it since she was little.”

No wonder Anping wasn’t afraid to love, it turned out that Grandmother loved her so much.

Shen Xiaoyou didn’t refuse and lay on Grandmother’s lap.

Grandmother gave her a blanket to cover herself.

Anping looked at this scene in the rearview mirror, and her heart was extremely warm.

Anping wanted to drive for a while longer, so that Shen Xiaoyou could rest well. She felt that Shen Xiaoyou deliberately let her drive less each time.

Therefore, Anping increased the speed a lot this time. Seeing that she had been driving for two or three hours, Anping stopped the car at the service area and got out to buy something to eat.

She woke Shen Xiaoyou up and said that they would rest here for the night.

Shen Xiaoyou got out of the car, ate something, and washed up. Then, she put the front passenger seat down and went to sleep, while Grandmother lay down in the back seat to sleep.

After waiting for them to fall asleep, Anping quietly fastened Shen Xiaoyou’s seat belt.

She slowly started the car. After driving for an hour, Shen Xiaoyou slowly woke up in shock.

She looked at Anping angrily and said, “It’s very dangerous, do you know that? How long have you been driving?”

Anping said very reasonably, “We rested for so long in the middle, so it doesn’t count as fatigued driving.”

Shen Xiaoyou sat up, straightened the backrest, and looked at Grandmother, who was still sleeping. She decided to settle the score after getting out of the car.

Unexpectedly, Anping didn’t plan to stop.

Shen Xiaoyou held her breath. When it was still not dawn, Grandmother also woke up.

Shen Xiaoyou wasn’t angry with Grandmother. She told Grandmother to eat something to fill her stomach.

Anping took the opportunity to say to Shen Xiaoyou, “I want some too!”

Shen Xiaoyou ignored her.

Anping said again, “Baby, I want to eat too!”

Shen Xiaoyou still ignored her.

Grandmother saw that the two children were having a conflict, but she didn’t get involved.

She ate by herself.

Finally, the car arrived in Jingcheng. Anping found a public restroom to wash up first, and then went to a breakfast shop.

While eating, Anping wanted to add food to Shen Xiaoyou’s plate, but Shen Xiaoyou didn’t give her a chance.

Anping thought: “Crap, she’s really angry. I’ll coax her later.”

After eating, Anping went back to the car first.

Grandmother saw Anping leave and asked Shen Xiaoyou, “Xiaoyou, what’s the matter with you two?”

Shen Xiaoyou sighed. She wasn’t really angry, but she felt very unsafe.

“Grandmother, you don’t know. Last night, she let us sleep for a short time before hitting the road. She had already been driving for several hours. It’s very dangerous,” Shen Xiaoyou truthfully told Grandmother.

Grandmother patted Shen Xiaoyou and said, “Anping isn’t a child who doesn’t know what she’s doing. Think about it, have you ever driven without resting?”

Shen Xiaoyou was silent after Grandmother’s words. Did she remember it because she usually did this?

But Shen Xiaoyou was still angry. She shouldn’t have done it secretly. She could have talked to her properly.

Shen Xiaoyou also hesitated. She was too impulsive, and she even got angry with her.

Grandmother looked at Shen Xiaoyou’s expression.

She sighed in her heart: “They’re both good children, and they’re both stubborn!”

After Shen Xiaoyou and Grandmother returned to the car, the atmosphere in the car was a little better.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the new home.

Shen Xiaoyou’s house was on the first floor, which was also very friendly to Grandmother, so she wouldn’t have to climb the stairs.

The things had already been brought in by someone Shen Xiaoyou had arranged, and they had been roughly arranged.

Shen Xiaoyou was very satisfied. She opened WeChat and transferred five thousand to the person who did the work and said, “You did a good job. Here’s a tip for your hard work.”

The other party replied, “Thank you, Miss Shen. It’s our duty.”

Then, they accepted the money.

Anping quickly packed up the remaining things and helped Grandmother organize her clothes.

Several hours passed in a flurry of activity.

After finally finishing, they were all hungry. Grandmother said she would cook, and Anping immediately thought of something and came over to tell Grandmother how to cook here.

Grandmother learned quickly and mastered it soon.

But since there wasn’t much food at home, Shen Xiaoyou ordered takeout.

It was the first meal in the new house for the three of them. Although they hadn’t made up yet, it was still very pleasant.

After eating, they packed up the trash and put it outside the door.

Grandmother went to rest.

Anping and Shen Xiaoyou stared at each other on the sofa.

Shen Xiaoyou couldn’t hold back and went upstairs first.

Anping got up and followed.

After going upstairs, Anping hugged Shen Xiaoyou from behind and rested her chin on her shoulder.

She gently said, “I’m sorry, Sister. I was wrong.”

Shen Xiaoyou sighed and said, “I’m not angry, but it was very dangerous. You can tell me, and I’m not completely unreasonable.”

Anping nodded and said, “I know. I’ll definitely discuss it with you next time.”

Shen Xiaoyou was also embarrassed to be angry with Anping. It wasn’t Anping’s fault anyway.

“Let’s wash up!” Shen Xiaoyou walked towards the bathroom.

Anping followed like a little tag-along.
