Chapter 334: Grandparents Who Cannot Be Coaxed (4)
Old Mrs. Xiang chided, “Do you know how to do it?”
Old Mr. Xiang answered diffidently, “I-I can learn.”
“You’ve already tried learning several times,” Old Mrs. Xiang exposed him mercilessly.
Old Mr. Xiang thought, ‘Ouch… That hurts my ego, old woman.’
He insisted stubbornly, “Anyway, I don’t want that wretched brat to teach me! Since she ignored me, I’ll ignore her too!”
…
Xiang Yi’s grandfather, Xiang Yin, had a loud voice so Xiang Yi could vaguely hear his words, which made her feel so crestfallen that she wanted to hide in a corner. However, the bumper car she was driving didn’t move an inch at all.
She raised her delicate face, only to realize that Shi Sui had pressed the switch with his fair and slender fingers.
“Where are you going to hide?” Shi Sui asked, looking downwards at her with a smile on his face.
Xiang Yi looked away and said, “I’m not hiding.”
She was just feeling a little aggrieved.
It clearly wasn’t her fault, but she had to suffer the scoldings of her grandfather who used to dote on her the most.
Shi Sui stared at her for a few seconds before bending forward to half-squat beside her.
He said in a low and gentle voice, “Xiang Yi, you can hide, but it’s not the best way to solve the problem. If you are not willing to face it, I will leave with you. Your grandparents aren’t that scary, are they?”
The tone of his voice made Xiang Yi’s heart waver.
“Xiang Yi, even if you’re scared, you don’t have to hide so far.” Shi Sui’s thin lips curled into a faint smile and continued, “Just hide behind me.”
For some reason, Xiang Yi felt a little touched.
She felt really childish compared to the mature Shi Sui.
‘I’m not fit to be a Mommy fan.’
“It really hurts to be beaten by my grandpa…” Xiang Yin was known to be a hot-tempered and feisty Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, who would lash out at patients who refused to abide by his medical advice. Everyone in the industry knew that he was very harsh and merciless with his beatings. Xiang Feng would often get beaten up into tears by him.
“It’s alright, I can take a beating.”
“…”
A few seconds later, Xiang Yi pursed her lips and said, “Alright… I’ll go see Grandpa and Grandma.”
Shi Sui rubbed her head gently twice, which was an absolutely breathtaking gesture.
“Xiang Yi, you’re so obedient.”
…
…
Only after Li Jianyu and Old Zhang had set themselves free and derived joy from riding the merry-go-round did they finally remember that they were still on the job. Thus, they frantically carried their cameras and other livestream equipment over to look for Xiang Yi.
They happened to see Xiang Yi driving the bumper car with Shi Sui in the passenger seat. She even reminded him to put on his safety belt.
Although the rabbit bumper car was a two-seater, Shi Sui was tall and had long legs that made the seat rather cramped for him. Hence, their arms seemed to be pressed together.
The netizens were appalled.
—— [Hahaha putting on the safety belt? That’s so cute~]
—— [There are millions of roads, but safety comes first!]
—— [This car is adorable! I want one! I want to have one!]
…
Xiang Yi drove toward her grandparents. Shi Sui alighted immediately, while Xiang Yi remained hesitant.
Shi Sui chuckled and opened the car door for her. He even drew a half circle in mid-air with his hand, as if he was inviting an aloof and elegant princess to dance.
“Princess Bunny, please alight.”
Xiang Yi was speechless.
Despite feeling a little shy and ashamed, she was quite happy to have been given an out.
She got out of the car, grabbed the hem of her dress uneasily and greeted softly, “Hello, Grandpa and Grandma.”
Xiang Yin was shocked!
‘She called me Grandpa again! She’s so obedient too!’
‘But does she think I’ll forgive her just because of that?’
‘How naive!’
‘I’m the most difficult old man in the world to coax! So is my wife!’
‘Don’t try to coax us!’
To his surprise…
Xiang Yi asked meekly in a tender voice, “Grandma, I’ll teach you how to buy things in a livestream, okay?”
Xiang Yi’s grandmother agreed, “Alright, sure, sure, Little Bunny is so sensible!”
Xiang Yin was bewildered.
