Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love-Chapter 393: How about I give you a big chubby boy to take care of?
After the first birthday feast, Xie Xiao and the others didn’t stay long in their hometown.
They were all too busy.
Lin Yu could only stay for a few days before he also had to leave; his graduation thesis wasn’t finished yet,
and this trip home was indeed squeezed into his schedule.
The old lady’s health was not so good this year.
She had a physical examination, and there were no major issues, but since the beginning of the year, there had been continuous minor problems.
This was one of the reasons Lin Yu came back this time.
Liu Ou had said before that he feared the old lady was missing him.
Sure enough, after Lin Yu returned, the old lady seemed much more spirited.
She was cheerful every day.
But Lin Yu still noticed that her memory wasn’t as good as it used to be.
At this moment, the two of them were planting vegetables in the yard.
In the end, Lin Yu bought the house.
A small vegetable garden had also been created in the yard.
Following the old lady’s directions, Lin Yu planted the seedlings in the specified spots, even receiving criticism for not doing it properly.
Lin Yu found it amusing, "No Granny, I’m obviously not doing it properly. It’s my first time, after all."
The old lady looked at his face, feeling somewhat mystified.
She knew she was really getting old; when she looked at Lin Yu now, he seemed increasingly like his grandfather.
"Your grandfather also said the same thing when he first planted vegetables, but he never learned how to do it right in the end..."
...and then he was gone.
Lin Yu paused in his movements; he had noticed in the past few days that Granny often mentioned his grandfather and his parents.
Lin Yu knew that she missed them a lot.
After burying the remaining seedlings in his hands, Lin Yu patted his hands clean and walked over to wash them.
"Then I must be a bit better than Grandpa; I’ll learn after planting a couple more times." Lin Yu said as he finished washing his hands and took the towel the old lady handed him.
The old lady smiled faintly, "Your flight is tomorrow afternoon, right?"
"Hmm, I’ll be back in two or three months," Lin Yu said as he squatted in front of her. She seemed even smaller and thinner these last two years.
But Lin Yu still looked up at her as he used to, "When I come back, let’s go visit Grandpa and Mom and Dad, okay?"
The old lady nodded, smiling, "Okay."
"Granny, do you like Tuan Zi?" Lin Yu suddenly asked.
The old lady thought of the chubby little child with the milky voice calling her granny.
The smile in her eyes grew stronger, "I like him very much, he’s also well-behaved and pretty."
Lin Yu smiled as well, "Then wait for me. When I come back, Liu Ou and I will have a fat little boy for you, and you can help us take care of him, okay?"
Sure enough, the old lady’s eyes lit up, "It doesn’t have to be a fat little boy, a little girl would be pretty too, just like her mother..."
Lin Yu looked at her smiling face, talking about the child, and felt a slight sense of relief in his heart.
He knew that Granny was really getting on in years and that she had a heart condition.
As people age, they tend to reminisce about the past.
But Granny’s life had been so hard that even remembering the past brought her discomfort.
That was why her physical health and spirits were declining.
Lin Yu wanted to give her new hope, to rekindle her passion for life...
At noon, Lin Yu went to pick up Liu Ou from work.
Liu Ou was now a somewhat famous photographer.
He also took photos for some upcoming stars.
Thus, his work had become a bit hectic.
But these past few days, Liu Ou was finishing work on time.
The young assistant in the studio teased with a smile, "Teacher Liu has been leaving early these days, hasn’t he?"
Liu Ou said with a smile in her eyes, "Because my boyfriend is waiting for me."
Everyone in the studio knew Liu Ou had someone special.
After all, clients had pursued her in the past, but she rejected them all.
But it seemed her boyfriend was studying abroad.
Liu Teacher even took time off to fly overseas before.
However, they had never seen that guy come back.
So knowing that it was her boyfriend coming to pick her up, the colleagues in the studio all squeezed next to the second-floor window after they saw Liu Ou walk out.
They saw their Teacher Liu dash to the roadside and into the arms of a tall young man.
The young man lifted his hand and touched her head. Read exclusive adventures at novelbuddy
She tilted her head up and said something, probably, and then the young man leaned down and kissed her.
"Oh my, how sweet!"
"I always thought Teacher Liu’s boyfriend was kind of... you know, all these years it’s been Teacher Liu visiting him... but now it seems like they have a really good relationship!"
"Sounds like he’s studying medicine..."
"So tall, I wonder what he looks like?"
"I’ve seen a photo. Didn’t Teacher Liu post one on her Moments before? He’s really handsome!"
...
Lin Yu had just pecked his pampering girlfriend on the face and sensed something, he looked up towards the studio’s second floor.
Then he saw a row of faces behind the window.
Lin Yu: ...quite frightening indeed.
Liu Ou also looked up following his gaze and then laughed, "They’re just too curious about you, knowing that I have a boyfriend it’s probably the first time they’ve seen you. This is indeed your first time coming here to pick me up, right?"

Lin Yu felt guilty, "I’m sorry..."
"I don’t want your apologies," Liu Ou hurriedly interrupted him, linking arms with him, "Let’s go, Grandma is waiting for us to come back for dinner."
Lin Yu let out a deep breath, "In a few more months, I’ll pick you up every day after work."
"Dream on, Dr. Lin, as if I don’t know you. Once you start working, you probably won’t even be able to eat on time, let alone pick me up..."
Liu Ou’s voice was full of teasing.
Lin Yu had already received several job invitations from hospitals.
As soon as he was ready, he could start working upon returning.
After all, he had two professors’ letters of recommendation, and finding a suitable and good job was incredibly easy.
Not to mention, Lin Yu’s grades were always excellent.
After Liu Ou said that, Lin Yu couldn’t really promise that he would be able to get off work on time every day; being a doctor made it quite challenging.
He could only say, "I’ll try my best."
"Alright then, try your best," Liu Ou said with a smile.
Lin Yu turned to look at her, the girl’s face beaming with a happy smile. So many years had passed, yet she remained the same as the first time he saw her.
Time seemed to have left no marks on her face.
She was still as beautiful as ever and had a fatal attraction to him as always.
At the moment, she was talking about work troubles and life’s nuisances.
At last, she said, "By the way, was Grandma happier today? She’s been quite cheerful these last few days."
At this, Liu Ou became worried, "I’m always afraid she’s thinking too much."
Even when extremely busy, Liu Ou visited her grandmother every day. Even though the house she bought was ready, Liu Ou still continued to live in the old house with her grandma.
That was why she was the first to notice something was amiss with her grandmother.
This time it was also her who called Lin Yu to come back earlier.
Ever since the very first year Grandma went with Lin Yu for the New Year’s celebration, she had never gone again.
It was always Liu Ou who flew over to see him.
Liu Ou thought the old lady probably missed Lin Yu.
