Chapter 234: Chapter 234: The Simplicity of My Home Made You Laugh

Both of them stepped out the door, and Lin Weichen tactfully kept his mouth shut about what had just happened. If it was work-related, Sister Qiao would naturally tell him; if not, it meant it was her personal matter.

Lin Weichen didn’t have much of a curiosity, so he wouldn’t keep asking questions until he got the answers.

"Do you have any plans later?" Sang Qiao turned around and found that the kid was strangely still standing there, apparently lost in thought, and had not followed along.

Lin Weichen scratched his head and, brought back to reality by the question, hurried forward.

"I don’t have any plans. Sister Ah He gave me a day off to rest."

"Mm, where to? I’ll give you a ride." Sang Qiao was the first to pull open the car door and get in.

"I’m going home to have a meal with Grandma." Lin Weichen turned visibly embarrassed. He seemed like such an independent person, but he actually had barely any social circle—it was either work or Grandma every day.

"Alright, tell the driver the address." Sang Qiao nodded without objection.

"(An address)." Lin Weichen wasn’t coy and directly reported a location.

"Got it." The driver immediately understood and turned the car towards the address Lin Weichen had given.

When the car stopped in front of a dilapidated yard, the wooden door was still creaking. Lin Weichen’s face turned crimson; not inviting Sister Qiao in would make him seem stingy, but inviting her in might seem odd due to the humble setting.

"Chenchen, is that you coming back?" Grandma Lin had already come out, following the sound of the car, to open the wooden gate.

There were generally few cars passing through this part of the neighborhood, and usually, only Chenchen would have the car pulled in; nobody else would.

"Yes, Grandma, it’s me." Lin Weichen turned back to respond to his grandma, and then bent down to ask Sang Qiao sitting in the car, "Sister Qiao, my home is modest, but if you don’t mind, please come in for some water."

"Is that your colleague? Hurry invite them in. I’ve made quite a lot of food."

Grandma Lin also shook her head, trying to peek inside the car with a warm and friendly smile.

"It’s my boss." Lin Weichen spoke to his grandma gently and patiently.

"Grandma Lin, hello." Sang Qiao got out of the car and greeted her. She had planned to leave, but walking away now might look like she disdained the humble dwelling.

Then Grandma Lin came out, and it did not seem respectful to just sit in the car and do nothing.

"Hello, hello, Chenchen’s boss, is it? Please come in and join us for a meal. Is there a driver in front as well? You all come down."

Despite her white hair, Grandma Lin tied it up energetically, and she was enthusiastic about pulling the driver’s hand to stay and have a meal.

The driver, awkwardly clinging to the car door, chuckled nervously, "No need, no need, there’s food cooked at my house too."

"Well then, would you, the boss, stay for a meal? I haven’t had a proper chance to thank you for looking after my Chenchen, and today’s a good opportunity."

Grandma Lin then reluctantly retracted her head back inside from the window and warmly took hold of Sang Qiao’s hand.

"You go ahead, and I’ll call you later to pick me up." Sang Qiao reluctantly let the driver go.

"Yes." The driver promptly understood, and once they had closed the car door properly, he started the vehicle and left.

The three of them walked into the house together; though the red-brick house felt somewhat dated, inside it was tidied up warmly.

A four-dish, one-soup meal was on the table, a very homemade style, still steaming.

"Chenchen’s boss, do you have any dietary restrictions or anything specific you’d like to eat? I can go to the kitchen and make some more dishes for you." Grandma Lin was still clad in an apron, her hands unconsciously wiping the water droplets on it.

"No need. What’s on the table is enough, I don’t have any restrictions." Sang Qiao spoke urgently, fearing that the elderly lady would actually go and hustle in the kitchen.

"Alright, then I’ll go get you bowls and chopsticks."

"I can do it, Grandma. Sister Qiao, you two sit and wait for me." Lin Weichen gently made sure his grandma sat on the stool before he himself dashed to the kitchen. freewebnøvel.com

"I’ll go help too." Sang Qiao said with a smile, just as she stood up.

Grandma Lin pulled her back by the hand, "No need, no need. Chenchen’s boss, please sit, I... I also have some questions to ask you."

"Grandma Lin, you can call me Qiaoqiao. Ask away." Sang Qiao then sat back down.

The old lady tugged at her without changing the expression on her face, showing great patience.

Grandma Lin couldn’t help but feel happy for her grandson, having met such a good boss, "Qiaoqiao, does my Chenchen behave well at the company?"

"Grandma Lin, rest assured, Weichen is very obedient, works hard, and everyone in the company likes him. You should check out the dramas he has filmed."

"Is that so? There’re TV dramas too? If he gets along well with everyone, that puts my mind at ease."

Grandma Lin’s smile was genuinely heartfelt this time, as the child only ever shared good news and kept the worries to himself; she really needed to hear about Chenchen’s current status from someone else.

"Yes, later you can let Weichen download it to the TV so you can watch when you’re free."

Sang Qiao originally wanted to set it up for her, but noticing there clearly wasn’t a TV in the living room and assuming it might be due to the elderly lady’s mobility issues, probably installed in her room.

"Alright, alright." Grandma Lin nodded, making a mental note to download it beforehand.

"Grandma, Sister Qiao, rice." Lin Weichen suddenly brought out three big bowls of rice and placed them on the table, pushing a bowl to each of them, then sat down himself.

"Thank you." Sang Qiao took the bowl with both hands and placed it in front of herself.

Grandma Lin looked at her own old rose-patterned bowl, the floral imprint faded from long use, then glanced at Sang Qiao’s elegant and stylish attire.

She could imagine that someone of her position must be accustomed to the finest, "The house is simple, and the food may not taste good, I’m afraid you might find it funny."

"Not at all, it’s delicious, it feels like home, I really like it."

Sang Qiao’s words were sincere. Grandma Lin’s cooking was exquisite, far better than those small diners, and she had hardly ever eaten home-cooked meals before.

Grandma Lin’s cooking her gave a sense of home.

"If you like it, eat more. Feel free to come by whenever you’re free." Seeing how genuinely the young girl enjoyed the meal without any signs of disdain, Grandma Lin’s mood lightened up.

Chenchen’s boss was truly nice, not minding their humble home at all.

"Okay, just don’t find me annoying then, Grandma Lin." Sang Qiao winked, clearly intending to visit often for meals.

"How could I, haha." Grandma Lin burst into laughter, continuously reaching with her clean chopsticks to serve Sang Qiao dishes from afar.

"Grandma, you should eat more too." Lin Weichen felt immensely warmed inside.

Whether Sister Qiao’s liking was pretend or genuine, it undoubtedly satisfied the old lady’s heart.

"Alright, alright. Originally, today’s meal was prepared for your uncle and them, but never mind... let’s not mention it, let’s eat."
