After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 206 - 207: Grandma Arrives (4)

Lou Xi brought the dishes to the table, then went to the kitchen to serve the rice. Once everything was ready, she hesitated for a moment and walked into the living room.

As she approached the old lady, the old lady turned her head and started watching the TV.

"Grandma, it’s time to eat. I’ve cooked a few dishes but I’m not sure if they’ll suit your taste." Lou Xi spoke to the old lady cautiously.

The old lady moved her eyelids and said, "You don’t even know what I like and didn’t even bother to ask. You’re a grown-up and you can’t even handle such trivial matters?"

It wasn’t that she was a bit nervous just now and couldn’t think of so many things at once?

"Then what does Grandma like? I’ll buy it tomorrow and cook it for you." Lou Xi hadn’t spent much time with elderly people before, but coaxing them was like coaxing a child. She had raised Lou Nan before, so this little thing was not too difficult for her.

"You talk well, but don’t know that after I’ve been living here for a long time, some people might want me to leave." The old lady got up from the chair, her face showing a sense of low spirits.

"Who wants Grandma to leave?" A pleasant male voice came over, deep and alluring, and very comforting.

Lou Xi and the old lady looked towards Qin Mobai.

If it were usually just her and Qin Mobai there, Lou Xi would definitely throw herself into his arms and have a playful moment.

But now, in front of the old lady, how could Lou Xi dare do anything inappropriate with Qin Mobai?

"It’s you!" The old lady changed her tone, directing her criticism at Qin Mobai, "Ah, grandchildren grow up and have their own lives, can’t take care of this old woman anymore."

With that, the old lady walked towards the dining room, leaving Qin Mobai and Lou Xi behind.

Qin Mobai looked at the old lady’s back and chuckled.

He walked over, holding Lou Xi’s shoulder, "Did Grandma make things difficult for you just now?"

"No." Lou Xi shook her head, "Actually, I find Grandma quite endearing, as you said, she’s all bark and no bite."

"Yes, she was a noble lady before marrying Grandpa, and later Grandpa spoiled her, never letting her suffer at all. Everyone at home must listen to her. So, if Grandma accepts you, no one else can say anything."

It turns out Qin Mobai was thinking along these lines.

"Wasn’t Grandpa and Grandma’s marriage arranged back then?" Lou Xi heard that most marriages at that time were arranged by parents, with matchmakers’ words, how could there be free love?

"Their marriage was arranged by both families’ parents."

Upon hearing this, Lou Xi couldn’t help but be surprised. It was a marriage arranged by both families’ parents, but Grandpa could still spoil Grandma like that, it must be true love!

Qin Mobai’s worry stemmed from this, because Grandpa and Grandma had a marriage arranged by their parents and later had a happy marriage, whereas Qin Mobai’s parents married for love but didn’t end well.

So surely Grandpa and Grandma thought marriage for love wasn’t as good as a family-arranged one, which is why they haven’t yet refused the Shen Family’s proposal.

"What are you two still standing there for? Aren’t you coming over to eat?" Grandma, sitting at the dining table, called out to the two still standing there.

"We’re coming!" Lou Xi quickly pulled Qin Mobai towards the dining table.

The old lady looked at Lou Xi’s hurried demeanor and slightly furrowed her brows, saying, "Pulling and dragging at home, am I invisible?"

Lou Xi immediately let go of Qin Mobai’s hand, assuming an obedient and well-behaved demeanor.
