Lin Xi followed behind his grandfather.

"It's really Xiao Qin." She hadn't seen anyone yet, and just by listening to her grandfather's words in front of her, she already knew the result.

Lin Xi turned around and walked into the kitchen with his things. Grandma called her from behind, "Eh Xixi......"

Grandpa glanced back and helped Lin Xi explain: "She went to put the vegetables, and she will come in a while." ”

In the kitchen, Lin Xi pretended not to know that Qin Yu was outside, and hid alone in the kitchen to deal with the vegetables.

Two minutes later, there was a sound of footsteps behind her, and she followed the sound to see Qin Yu slowly walking in with his cuffs in his arms.

Different from the suits and leather shoes in the past, he is dressed more casually today, and like her, he specially brought out the sky, not in a hurry in the middle of work......

What my grandfather said turned out to be true.

Thinking that he had been visiting his grandparents for himself for so many years, Lin Xi had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

The last time she went back to the courtyard to accompany her grandfather, her grandfather also said that Qin Yu often went back to the courtyard to play chess with him and pushed him out for a walk.

"Third brother." When she spoke again, her tone was sullen, with too many overly complicated emotions, so that she couldn't tell what emotions accounted for more for a while.

Qin Yu hummed, walked to her side and lowered his head to wash his hands, looking at the posture to help her choose vegetables.

Not to mention Qin Yu, she rarely goes in and out of the kitchen. At most, she can only wash the vegetables, and nothing else can be done. Qin Yu is estimated to be inferior to her.

"I'll do it. The aunt who was cooking suddenly came home with something to do, and she would be back in half an hour. You go to the living room. ”

She's just hiding here for a while to find something to do. She didn't hide from Qin Yu, because her grandparents didn't know about the between them back then, and it would be embarrassing if she accidentally asked anything.

"It's okay, aren't you bored here alone?" As he spoke, he didn't even raise his head, washing his head and washing the dishes.

Seeing that he was so serious, Lin Xi could only go over, continue to choose vegetables in the sink next to him, and then hand them to him. Perfect assembly line.

After a long time, Lin Xi asked in a casual tone, "Why does the third brother have time to come." ”

She pretended not to know that he had been there.

"Grandma's birthday, there is no reason to come."

His tone was light, and he didn't mention a word of the past.

"Oh." Lin Xi didn't want to ask. Because Qin Yu did know about his grandmother's birthday very early.

When she was going to school here, she once caught up with her grandmother's birthday, when Qin Yu sent her back and was going to go back to Beijing directly, but she didn't make it that day. Grandma personally went out and invited him to stay and eat together.

Normally, Qin Yu could still refuse, but there was really no suitable reason that day. Because my uncle was not at home at that time, only my grandfather and Lin Xi accompanied my grandmother to dinner.

A bottle of wine was released that day, and Qin Yu could only stay here.

"Is the third brother going to stay overnight tonight?"

"Not necessarily." After a pause, he asked rhetorically, "What about you?" Go back tomorrow? ”

"Hmm. I took a day off and will be back tomorrow morning. ”

"Have you had a bad time with the people in the company lately?"

"Fourth brother really reports everything to you." Lin Xi let out a sigh.

"He mentioned it during dinner two days ago." usually doesn't be a person, but at this time, Qin Yu still defended Cheng Si, although it didn't play a role.

"It's not unpleasant, I told my fourth brother that it's nothing, it's just normal work exchanges, healthy competition. It won't be me who suffers anyway. ”

Qin Yu looked at her and said in a soft tone: "On the premise of not doing anything, I believe that you will not be bullied." But you're a girl after all, don't provoke each other for a momentary rap of tongue, not everyone is sensible at all times. ”

"I know." Lin Xi understood what he meant, "I just know that they won't do anything before arguing with them." Other times I'm measured, and I'm not stupid to go up and beg for a fight. ”

She understands the truth, and her brother taught her a lot when she was a child.

"I still remember my brother's words."

"Who's going to listen?"

"My brother said that if you can't guarantee that you are making a decision to be safe, you can compromise and hold back your temper first. I'll tell you when I get back, and I'll let you support me. ”

Before going abroad, she habitually found a few of them every time she was in trouble.

For example, when she was taken off her hearing aids, no one else was in Beijing at that time, so she could only call Qin Yu. Now that I think about it, that is really the source of all "evil".

Originally, Qin Yu had only been here once or twice before that. Since then, it has become a daily regular pick-up from school, like a mobile monitor, and like a personal bodyguard.

——

During lunch, Qin Yu accompanied his grandfather to drink some wine, because he took care of his grandfather's body, Lin Xi didn't let the two of them drink too much. In the afternoon, Lin Xi was going to the clinic to help her grandmother get medicine.

"I'll go with you." The man who was resting on the sofa followed her when he heard the sound. Lin Xi's refusal was forced to swallow back.

The public clinic is not far away, a four-minute walk.

Lin Xi remembered it very clearly, because she had walked this road many times back then, together with Qin Yu. This road is also the only way for her to get to school.

And the school to the home, is ten minutes.

He will walk a little faster, but because he drives, he will occasionally encounter traffic jams, so it will be a little longer. But at that time, she didn't think it was long, but wished that the road would be longer, so that she could stay with him for a few more minutes.

Although I could see him every day, we didn't see him for a long time.

Occasionally when she was hungry, he would take her for a late-night snack and send her back. If nothing else, it's just ten minutes.

The most precious ten minutes of her worthless youth.

Lin Xi shook his head, sobered himself up, and asked Qin Yu: "Third brother didn't drink much, did you bring the driver over?" Or I'll find you a substitute driver at night. ”

He reckoned he couldn't drive.

The liquor has a lot of stamina.

Qin Yu replied: "What else do I take the driver to do when I go home." ”

"......" Lin Xi choked.

"Depends on the situation at night." He said he didn't have to worry about her.

I thought he meant to call someone to pick him up at night, but who knew that Qin Yu drank a lot with his grandfather at night, and after eating, he leaned on the sofa drunk with his eyes closed, looking uncomfortable.

"Xiao Qin is drunk." Grandma sighed, turned her head and lectured her grandfather a few more words.

It's been a long time since I've been drinking with anyone, and my grandfather is too happy to take it.

"Let Xiao Qin stay here tonight. Xixi, quick, help your third brother to lie upstairs for a while, it's not comfortable to sit here. ”

"Oh, good." Lin Xi stepped forward obediently.

On the sofa, Qin Yu didn't open his eyes, as if he wanted to fall asleep.

But Lin Xi clearly remembered that he had a good amount of alcohol before, and even if he was drunk, he was not drunk, so people couldn't tell whether he had drunk or not.

Look at the present......

She leaned over and leaned closer: "Third brother......"
