Yin Hua chuckled silently.
“Yangyang, it’s not him that I like.” Yin Hua looked at Lu Yang, and her wrinkles of time softened. “I like you. I will also like and care about what you like.”
At her words, ripples formed in Lu Yang’s eyes, and she moved forward to hug Yin Hua.
“Grandma…”
Yin Hua lightly patted her shoulder, with no hint of reproach in her tone. “Keeping it a secret from Mingyu is one thing, but why didn’t you tell me about your relationship? Are you afraid that I will make things difficult for him?”
“I didn’t have a chance to tell you, and you found out already.” Lu Yang glanced at the cloves on the table. “Grandma, Jiang Yanzhou has weak endurance. Can you pretend not to know about this?”
Yin Hua smiled. “I can.”
After dropping off Xiao Li, Lu Mingyu insisted on driving to a shopping mall thirty kilometers away to buy things.
The mall was crowded, and two men walking together wearing masks attracted attention. So, they split up and each went their own way, planning to meet in the underground parking lot after finishing their shopping.
Jiang Yanzhou returned first and put the items in the trunk. He took out his phone and called Lu Yang.
The voice on the other end sounded relaxed. “Mingyu was just worried that you would get lost and be kidnapped by someone with evil intentions, and now you’re calling.”
Jiang Yanzhou responded, “If I were kidnapped, would you buy me?”
“A clearly unprofitable deal. I wouldn’t buy you.”
“I wouldn’t let you suffer a loses”
“Still, no.”
“Why?”
“Human trafficking is illegal.”
Hearing Lu Yang’s words, Jiang Yanzhou chuckled softly and asked, “Do you miss me?”
Both ends fell into silence.
After a moment, Lu Yang slowly said, word by word, “Yanzhou, why are you acting a bit clingy?”
“Don’t like clingy?” Jiang Yanzhou curved his lips and asked.
“It’s not that I dislike it, nor that I like it,” Lu Yang replied.
“Not dislike, not like, then it’s…” Jiang Yanzhou dragged his tone, pausing for a slightly longer time before uttering those three words, “having good feelings.”
Lu Yang was baffled
Jiang Yanzhou lowered his gaze to the ground and slowly asked, “Do you want to do something else tonight?”
His voice was casual, but there was a subtle teasing tone in the lingering note.
Lu Yang paused.
“I’ll be your male model.” Jiang Yanzhou’s smile deepened. “Letting you have your way with me.”
His words reminded Lu Yang of the scene from last night. After a moment of silence, she responded calmly, “Then, don’t regret it.”
“I won’t. I’ll never regret it if it’s you.”
After hanging up the phone, a surprised exclamation came from beside him.
“Jiang Yanzhou, do you have a girlfriend?!”
Jiang Yanzhou turned toward the source of the voice and saw Lu Mingyu looking at him with astonishment. “You actually have a girlfriend?
Lu Mingyu was utterly shocked by the answer, and his pupils widened. “Who is your girlfriend?”
Jiang Yanzhou didn’t answer him. He opened the car door and got in. Rolling down the window, he looked at Lu Mingyu, who was still standing there. “Get in the car. Let’s go back.”
On the way home, no matter how hard Lu Mingyu racked his brain to figure out who the girlfriend could be, he couldn’t come up with a reasonable answer.
When he asked Jiang Yanzhou, he didn’t say anything either.
Driven by curiosity, Lu Mingyu fell into deep contemplation.
When they arrived home, he entered the house as if he were a lifeless being, carrying things.
Seeing him in such a daze, Lu Yang couldn’t help but ask, “Mingyu, what’s wrong with you?”
Upon hearing her voice, Lu Mingyu seemed to snap back to reality. He suddenly raised his head and whispered to her, “Yangyang, do you know that Yanzhou has a girlfriend now?”
Lu Yang was stunned and glanced at Jiang Yanzhou, who acted as if nothing had happened.
The man caught her gaze and returned a gentle smile.
“He doesn’t have any girls around him, so how could he have a girlfriend unless…” Lu Mingyu pinched his chin, pretending to be mysterious and dragging his voice.
Lu Yang asked, “Unless what?”
“Unless… he’s in an online relationship!” Lu Mingyu analyzed with reason.
“Frequent phone usage, making calls—it’s practically confirmed that he’s in an online relationship!”
Baffled, Lu Yang gulped and helplessly said, “Mingyu, I’m a girl.”
“I know.”
Yin Hua’s voice came through. “Mingyu, you’re back.”
Lu Mingyu responded, “Yeah. Grandma, we bought a lot of vegetables, a lot of food, and also the candied hawthorn that you and Yangyang like.”
As he spoke, he looked at the candied hawthorn in Jiang Yanzhou’s hand, took it, and stuffed it into Lu Yang’s hand. “For Yangyang.”
Lu Mingyu then picked up another bag, walked over to Yin Hua, and smiled brightly. “For Grandma..”
