Chapter 334 - Grandparents Who Cannot Be Coaxed (4) (1/2)

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.”
