298 Dinner (2/2)

''Oh my, I've missed this place! ''

She exclaimed as she stepped inside, grandpa following suit.

The workers were all lined up outside, their heads bowed a little as they welcomed them home. Grandma ignored them and walked briskly into the house, searching for her son.

''Son? Where are you? ''

She cried excitedly as she walked into the house. ''

''The Chairman stepped out for a minute, he'll soon be home. ''

One of the maids explained to her when she saw her asking around for her son. ''

''Oh my! To think that he isn't even here to welcome us! This son of mine! Wei Wei, thank you for not being like your father, he's so uncaring! . ''

She exclaimed as she walked up the stairs to her room to take a shower. Grandpa who had just stepped inside; followed behind;

''Liu Wei, I hear you have your own home now? ''

Grandpa said when he was halfway up the stairs. Liu Wei nodded with a slight smile.

''Mm... That is good. Wait behind for dinner then, you'll be sleeping over this night. ''

He instructed and turned around, continuing with his trip to his bedroom.

Liu Wei knew it was a command, so he didn't object. Besides, they had just returned, so it was not abnormal for him to stay the night, except that he had someone waiting for him at home, but he couldn't tell them that unless he would be digging his own pit.

As soon as his grandpa disappeared up the stairs Liu Wei stepped out to call Liling.

As though she was already with her phone, she picked it up as soon as it started ringing.

''Baby, where are you, it's past five? ''

Liu Wei could hear some sound and rushing water, his brows creased.

''What are you doing? ''

Liling smiled as she bit on her lower lip;

''Well, I'm making chicken pizza.''

She said shyly, a blush forming on her cheeks.

''Why? You could have ordered, do you want to hurt your hands? ''

He asked; pinching between his brows.

At that moment, he couldn't bring himself to tell her that he wasn't returning that night. She had entered the kitchen to prepare something for him, how was he going to tell her that?

Liling chuckled;

''I was feeling lazy, so I decided to try some recipe. I've not tasted it but it smells really nice. ''

She said washing her hands and wiping it with the kitchen towel, all the while supporting her phone with her shoulders.

Liu Wei clenched his jaws;

He didn't know what to do, if he told his grandparents that he didn't want to sleep over, it would lead it unwanted questions; there was no other way.
