Chapter 414 is quite mischievous.
Butler: "Also, young master, please let the old gentleman go back to take his medicine. It wouldn't be good if he missed his appointed time."
Yan Zhibei could only abandon his relaxed demeanor and stand there, saying, "Grandpa, let's go back."
The door suddenly opened from the inside with a "click".
Yan went to take a shower, and he wanted to go downstairs to get a drink of water, but when he opened the door, two heads were dangling in front of him!
Startled, he clutched his heart and immediately took a step back. "Grandpa... Big brother, sister-in-law, is something wrong?" His voice was still filled with lingering fear.
Chi Yining felt that the Yan family had completely mastered how to make a socially awkward person socially anxious to death.
At this moment, he felt so lonely and helpless. This eavesdropping incident actually happened in the Yan family, a top-tier aristocratic family.
That's so down-to-earth, that's all Chi Yining can say.
Yan Zhibei was glad he had stood up straight earlier. He was secretly gloating over his wife's misfortune. He was trying to suppress his laughter, and he wondered where his grandfather's face would be.
He couldn't hold back any longer; he quietly shifted his gaze away from the group.
"Cough cough cough, Ningning, I just heard the sound of glass breaking. I thought it was here. Grandpa thought something had happened to you. Sigh... I must be getting old and hallucinating."
Mei Heqing: "Yes, yes, Ningning, don't be afraid. We are not good people. Oh, I misspoke. We are not bad people."
Chi Yining smiled and nodded to indicate that she understood, thinking to herself, "Do you think I'm a fool? Isn't this just like trying to hide something obvious?"
Yan Zhibei raised his hand to his forehead, trying not to laugh. These two were really embarrassing.
"Grandpa, I heard you haven't been sleeping well lately. I'll have someone bring you the recipe later to prepare. It can be used as incense to help you sleep." Chi Yining felt that the only way to break the awkward silence was to change the subject.
Grandpa Yan had already stood up straight, his hands behind his back, his cane nowhere to be seen. His face was kind, like a peaceful old man, completely unaware of what Yan Zhibei was thinking about.
"She's truly outstanding! Not only is she incredibly talented, but she can also create incense recipes. Grandpa is truly amazed to have such an excellent granddaughter-in-law..."
Skipping over three hundred words of praise, let's just say that Grandpa Yan is his biggest fan, he's been praised so much he's embarrassed.
"Then Grandpa will thank Ningning in advance. By the way, Ningning, are you going out? Or do you need anything? I'll have the housekeeper bring it over."
Chi Yining nodded: "Please have the housekeeper send some warm water up."
The butler nodded and went downstairs immediately.
The other three, upon hearing this, clearly misunderstood.
Chi Yining: "..."
Sure enough, older men tend to be more mischievous.
After saying good afternoon to the others, Chi Yining returned to Yan Ge's room, where he had heard that Yan Ge had lived since he was two years old.
Brother Yan is clearly living in the study... The room has a simple big bed, a wardrobe on one wall, a minimalist sofa area, and the rest is bookshelves and books.
The room is about 100 square meters, but bookshelves take up most of it.
It's like a small library.
Last night, the people at the old house made preparations in a hurry, only changing the bed sheet, which was dark red with a large double happiness character on it.
"We've only just gotten our marriage certificate, yet it's already like we've already had a wedding," Chi Yining chuckled, her voice as melodious as a flowing stream.
Chi Yining then walked through the bookshelves, the books of which were dust-free, indicating that they were regularly cleaned. She circled the bookshelves a few more times, looking at books on economics, finance, management, and even sociology and history. Many books that had disappeared from the market could now be found on these shelves.
There are also various reference books, even books that are very detailed about the linguistics of different countries...
Pick up any book and you'll find slightly yellowed pages, indicating that it's been stored for quite some time.
