delayed love

Chapter 42 Support her
Lin Xi followed behind Grandpa.

"It's really Xiao Qin." Before she saw anyone, she already knew the result just by listening to her grandfather's words.

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

Grandpa glanced back and helped Lin Xi explain: "She's going to put the food, and she'll be here in a while."

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

Two minutes later, footsteps sounded behind her. She followed the sound and saw Qin Yu walking in slowly with her sleeves rolled up.

Different from the suits and ties of the past, he is dressed casually today, just like her, he specially made the day out, he didn't come here 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 on his behalf for so many years, Lin Xi felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

When she went back to the courtyard to accompany her grandfather last time, the 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 muffled, with too many complicated emotions in it, so she couldn't tell which emotion accounted for more.

Qin Yu hummed, walked to her side and lowered his head to wash his hands, looking like he was going to help her choose vegetables.

Not to mention Qin Yu, she rarely goes in and out of the kitchen.She can only wash the vegetables at most, and can't do anything else.Qin Yu is probably not as good as her.

"Let me come. The aunt who cooks suddenly came home for something, and she will be back in half an hour. You go to the living room."

She's just hiding here for a while looking for something to do.She didn't think she was Qin Yu because her grandpa and grandma didn't know about the shitty things between them back then, and it would be embarrassing if she accidentally asked something.

"It's okay, aren't you bored here by yourself?" While speaking, he didn't even lift his head, he was washing the dishes dully.

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

After a long time, Lin Xi asked in a chatty tone, "Why did the third brother have time to come over?"

She pretended not to know that he had been here.

"Grandma's birthday, why don't you come here?"

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

"Oh." Lin Xi couldn't ask further.Because Qin Yu did know about grandma's birthday very early on.

When she was studying here, one time it happened to be her grandmother's birthday. At that time, Qin Yu sent her back and was supposed to go back to Beijing directly, but she didn't make it that day.Grandma personally went out and invited him to stay and have dinner together.

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

That day, the outsider released a bottle of wine, so Qin Yu could only stay here.

"Will the third brother want to stay overnight?"

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

"Well. I've taken a day off and I'll be back tomorrow morning."

"Did you have a bad fight with the company people recently?"

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

"He raised his mouth during the meal two days ago." Usually he is not a human being, but at this time Qin Yu still defended Cheng Si, even though it didn't help.

"It's not unpleasant. I told my fourth brother that it's nothing to do. It's just normal work exchanges and healthy competition. Anyway, I won't be the one who suffers."

Qin Yu looked at her with a soft tone: "As long as you don't do anything, I believe you will not be bullied. But you are a girl after all, don't provoke the other party for a moment of quick talk, not everyone is always bullied." Sensible."

"I know." Lin Xi understood what he meant, "I just argued with them because I knew they wouldn't fight. Other times I have a sense of proportion, and I'm not stupid enough to go up and ask for a fight."

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

"I still remember what my brother said."

"tell me the story?"

"My brother said that if you can't guarantee the safety of your decision, you can compromise and hold back your temper first. I will tell you when I go back and ask you to support me."

Before going abroad, she used to find a few of them every time she encountered trouble.

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

Before that, Qin Yu had only been here once or twice.Since then, it has become like picking her up from school on time every day, like a mobile monitor, and like a bodyguard.

-

During lunch, Qin Yu drank some wine with his grandfather, because Lin Xi didn't let them drink too much because of his health.In the afternoon, Lin Xi was going to the clinic to help grandma get medicine.

"I'll go with you." The man who was resting on the sofa followed her after hearing the sound.Lin Xi was forced to swallow the words of refusal.

The public clinic is not far away, 4 minutes walk.

Lin Xi remembers it very clearly, because she walked this road many times, with Qin Yu.This road is also the only way she must go to school.

It takes 10 minutes from school to home.

Walking will be slightly faster, but because he drives and occasionally encounters traffic jams, it will take longer.But at that time, she didn't think it was a long journey. Instead, she wished that the journey could be longer, so that she could spend a few more minutes with him.

Although I could see him every day at that time, the time we met each time was not long.

Occasionally when she was hungry, he would take her to have a supper before sending her back.If nothing else, it's just that short 10 minutes.

The most precious 10 minutes of her insignificant youth.

Lin Xi shook her head to wake herself up, and asked Qin Yu, "Third Brother, you haven't drunk much, have you brought the driver? Or I'll find you a substitute driver at night."

He figured he couldn't drive.

The aftertaste of liquor is not small.

Qin Yu replied, "What am I going to do with the driver when I go home?"

"..." Lin Xi choked.

"We'll see what happens at night." He said he didn't need her to worry.

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 was drunk and leaned on the sofa with his eyes closed, looking uncomfortable.

"Xiao Qin is drunk." Grandma let out a hey, then turned around and scolded Grandpa a few more words.

It's been a long time since no one drank with me, and my grandfather was so happy that he didn't take it.

"Let Xiao Qin live here tonight. Xixi, come on, help your third brother upstairs to lie down for a while, it's not comfortable to sit here."

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

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

But Lin Xi clearly remembered that he had a good drinker before, and even if he was drunk, he was not drunk, so it was impossible to tell whether he had drunk or not.

Look now...

She leaned over and got closer: "Third Brother..."
