Chapter 695: Chapter 683: Back Again
Xia Yue’s voice startled her grandfather in the courtyard as he was drinking tea. He thought he was hallucinating.
Turning to the entrance, he really saw Xia Yue and Xia Xi.
"Hello, Grandpa and Grandma, all grandpas and grandmas, I’m back, I missed you so much, did you miss me?" As soon as Xia Yue saw them, she quickly ran over, laughing and greeting them, and then dashed into Grandmother Xia’s arms.
"Hello, Grandpas and Grandmas," Xia Xi walked over, smiling and greeting them.
Grandmother Xia patted Xia Yue’s head and waved at Xia Xi, her smile kind.
"Let me get a good look at you two. You’ve both lost a lot of weight. You must’ve had a hard time," Grandmother Xia observed them with a heartache.
"Grandma." Xia Xi walked over, squatted down, and looked at her on equal footing.
"Good girl," Grandmother Xia touched her head with her other hand.
"Did you just get back?" Grandfather Xia asked them.
"Yes, we just got back, and came to see you immediately, don’t you think we’re great?" Xia Yue said cheerfully.
"You little..." Grandfather Xia pointed his finger at her forehead.
"Just got back? Have some tea, relax. Grandfather Xia, these two granddaughters of yours are incredible, heading straight for you right after returning," Grandfather Qin admired Xia Xi and Xia Yue, and praised Grandfather Xia for his good fortune.
The fact that these two granddaughters, who were swapped by mistake, could maintain such a good relationship was truly remarkable.
"Of course, my grandparents love me the most. After coming back, the first thing I did was visit them," Xia Yue responded with a smile.
"Yan, compared to these two, your grandson isn’t doing too well. He didn’t even come to see you," Old man Lin said with a chuckle, looking at Old man Yan.
Hearing the name Yan, Xia Yue immediately thought of Yan Mo. Xia Yue looked in the direction of old man Lin’s gaze and saw an old man she hadn’t met before.
Combining what she heard from Lin-style grandfather, Xia Yue made the immediate connection that it was Yan Mo’s grandfather, the Old man Yan.
Old Man Yan noticed Xia Yue and Xia Xi’s gaze and gave them a smile.
"Lin, if you have nothing good to say, then don’t say anything at all," Old Man Yan retorted, annoyed.
At the same time, he was a bit resentful towards Yan Mo. This grandson of his got the opportunity to visit such a fantastic place and didn’t even think to bring him along.
He only found out about this place after overhearing Xia family talk about it during Chinese New Year.
This time, he had no choice but to tag along, realizing how great this place was. The food was delicious, drinks were great, and there was plenty of alcohol. The entertainment facilities were also fun. It was far better than staying at home.
And now, Yan Mo didn’t even come to meet him.
Look at Grandfather Xia’s granddaughters -- they brought their grandparents here to recuperate. Such good girls. Can’t say the same about this grandson of his.
However, Yan Mo was wronged. He didn’t even know that his grandfather was here.
After parting with Xia Yue and the others, he returned to his room to change clothes and then went to ask Zheng Tang about the development of the holiday resort.
They didn’t finish talking until noon.
At the end of their discussion, it was only then that Zheng Tang remembered to tell him about his grandfather’s arrival.
As soon as he found out, Yan Mo rushed to Grandfather Xia’s courtyard.
At that time, they were having lunch. Xia Yue had asked Ao Mi to bring the food.
"Grandpa," Yan Mo greeted as soon as he entered, seeing his grandfather sitting there, but Old Man Yan didn’t even acknowledge him.
"Hello, everyone," Yan Mo greeted after his own grandfather ignored him.
"Yan, haven’t eaten yet? Come join us, there’s a seat left," Xia Yue invited him with a smile.
"Sure," Yan Mo nodded and took a seat next to his grandfather.
"Humph," Old Man Yan grunted loudly towards Yan Mo.
"Are you okay, Grandpa Yan? Did you choke on something?" Xia Yue asked with concern, having heard the sound.
"No, I’m just irritated by someone. Unlike these granddaughters who know how to spoil others. My grandsons only know how to infuriate me," Old Man Yan said, his tone relaxing, as he smiled and shook his head. He gave Yan Mo, who was sitting next to him, a sidelong glance.
Xia Yue immediately understood what he meant but didn’t know what to say. She could only laugh and gave Yan Mo a look of sympathy.
Yan Mo returned her a helpless expression.
"Let’s eat, there’s so much delicious food - don’t skip meals because you’re angry," Grandfather Xia tried to change the topic and cheer them up.
Old Man Yan thought about it. This was not his house, so he agreed to let it go and began to concentrate on eating.
During the meal, Xia Yue and Xia Xi peeled shrimps and deboned fish for Grandfather Xia and Grandmother Xia. Yan Mo noticed the change in his grandfather’s mood and began doing the same, which finally improved his mood.
After they finished eating, Xia Xi and Xia Yue collected the dishes in a lunch box and left with Grandfather Xia to drink tea.
Yan Mo was considerate enough to make tea for them and peel an orange for his grandfather, earning him some grace.
"Isn’t your grandson also great? Look at the ones in my family. They wouldn’t even think about deboning fish for themselves, let alone anyone else," Old Man Lin chuckled.
In Kyoto, the most envied of all was Old man Yan, his children were not only successful, but each of his grandchildren also excelled in their respective fields.
Now, Grandfather Xia and his wife were the talk of the town. Living here for less than half a year, they looked younger and more vibrant than others their age, by no small margin.
"Grandpa, I really didn’t know you were here. I went straight to work with Zheng Tang after I got back. He informed me after we finished talking. Only then did I know you were here and came immediately," Yan Mo explained to his grandfather. If he didn’t explain, his grandfather would certainly be upset with him when they got home.
"Xiaomo didn’t do it intentionally. Old Yan, stop throwing tantrums for no reason," Grandfather Xia tried to mediate, his patience with Old Man Yan’s unreasonable temper having run thin.
While living here, Grandfather Xia had observed that Yan Mo was a diligent and committed person. He handled a lot of things on his own.
Although no one had told him directly, he could deduce from several incidents that this resort belonged to his granddaughters and Yan Mo was assisting them.
If it weren’t for Yan Mo and his team, not only would the resort not look like it does now, it wouldn’t even be up and running.
"Yes, Grandpa Yan. Yan only didn’t know you were here, otherwise, he would have definitely come here with us," Xia Yue defended Yan Mo. After all, he was doing it for the resort.
Old Man Yan looked at his grandson and then at Grandfather Xia’s granddaughters and finally nodded.
