258 As Long As Its Worthy (1/2)

When he heard the dial tone from the other end of the line, he heaved a sigh of relief. At least it ruled out the probability of her being in the hands of crooks.

The phone rang for quite a while before someone answered. It was a familiar voice that he had missed . ”Hello.”

”Where are you?” Yan Rusheng asked with a frown.

Her voice sounded as if she was munching on something in her mouth.

Xuxu replied, ”I planned to call you after my dinner. I am at my grandfather's house. Qi Lei had returned home as his Grand Aunt Lei had passed away. As my grandfather's movements are still not nimble, I intend to stay with him for the next few days.”

So she won't be returning home tonight?

Oh no, not only tonight. It would be for the next few nights.

He turned and took a glance at his laptop screen. The downloading of the latest blockbuster movie was completed. He had made plans to watch it with her tonight, but it was not possible anymore.

He was upset that his plans were wrecked had the urge to smash up his phone in anger.

”Okay.” Yan Rusheng fought hard to suppress his emotions and answered lightly. After pausing briefly, he added, ”Let grandfather know that I'll visit him when I have the time.”

He used to use 'your grandfather' to refer to Xuxu's grandfather. But now, he referred to him as 'grandfather' so naturally.

Xuxu listened intently and remained silent for a while before replying, ”Okay.”

After they hung up, Xuxu continued with her dinner.

Grandfather, who was sitting opposite her, asked inquisitively, ”Was the call from Third Yan?”

Xuxu rolled her eyes at her grandfather, suggesting to him that he was asking the obvious. If it wasn't him, then who else could it be?

The old man added, ”Grandfather keeps forgetting to ask you, how is the progress of your relationship?”
