Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1402 - 1293: Li Wan’er Runs into Trouble (Two in One)_3

Seeing Li Wan’er emerge from the bedroom, Elder Li’s expression softened slightly, but when he caught sight of his granddaughter’s attire, his face immediately became serious, "Why haven’t you dressed up properly? You look just like a tomboy; what kind of appearance is that?"

"Grandpa, don’t worry about it. With your granddaughter’s qualifications, would I have trouble finding a partner?"

Li Wan’er grabbed her grandfather’s hand and shook it while cooing, "Besides, even if I do dress up, what’s the use? Once I put on a thick down jacket, any outfit would be ruined!"

"I’ve seen Elder Meng’s grandson, and he really is a handsome and talented young man with great prospects. Don’t give me a half-hearted effort!"

Elder Li was always troubled by his granddaughter; not even her parents could handle her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have missed coming home for the New Year. Seeing his granddaughter’s stubbornness reminded Elder Li of himself.

"We’ll see, love is all about fate. If I find the guy agreeable, I’ll get to know him better. If he doesn’t even pass the initial scrutiny, no amount of forcing will do any good."

Li Wan’er let go of her grandfather’s arm and walked over to the coat rack, picking up her down jacket, "Grandpa, what time is the meeting? If it’s too late, it’ll have to wait until tomorrow; I’ve still got things to do."

"Here’s his number; you two can arrange it yourselves."

Elder Li handed her a piece of paper with a phone number, continuing, "What could you possibly be busy with? You just play games all day!"

"I’m going to fix the gaming pod!"

Elder Li immediately fell silent.

Just then, a pleasant ringtone sounded from the table, Li Wan’er picked up her phone and saw an unfamiliar number. She compared it to the number on the paper and realized; speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

"Hello, this is Li Wan’er speaking."

Li Wan’er glanced at her grandfather with some embarrassment before answering the phone with a polite greeting.

"Is this Miss Li Wan’er? My name is Meng Xiao."

A hoarse yet magnetic voice came through the phone.

Struck as if by lightning, Li Wan’er froze in place.

"Hello? Are you still there? Strange, is there a problem with the phone signal?"

Meng Xiao didn’t get a response from Li Wan’er, his voice full of confusion.

"No, I’m here,"

Li Wan’er felt her heart start pounding, her cheeks beginning to flush as she quickly said, "The signal was poor just now, but it’s fine now."

"Miss Li, are you free today? Can we find a time to meet?"

"Don’t call me Miss Li, it sounds awful. Just call me Wan’er. I’m free today; anytime is fine for a meeting."

Li Wan’er realized she might be a little too eager but didn’t care; she was anxious to meet the guy on the other end of the line.

"Alright then, Wan’er, let’s meet in the coffee shop on Tongxin Street in an hour. Their coffee is authentic, and it’s not too far from here, quite convenient."

"Mhm, okay, Meng Xiao, see you later."

After hanging up, Li Wan’er excitedly waved her arms, only then noticing her somewhat dazed grandfather. She quickly calmed her excited heart and asked in surprise, "Grandpa, you haven’t left yet?"

"You girl, it’s as if you’ve become a completely different person. Tell me the truth, have you already had dealings with Elder Meng’s grandson?"

Elder Li sensed something was off with Li Wan’er, his eyes brimming with curiosity.

"Not at all, Grandpa, you’re overthinking it. I just thought Meng Xiao’s voice sounded like an online friend of mine; I wanted to check if it’s really him."

"Hehe, what a coincidence. Aren’t you in a hurry to fix your gaming pod?"

"Grandpa, you’re so annoying! I’m going to change my clothes!"
