What Are You All Doing?
Compared to Grandma Gu, Grandpa Gu was much more difficult to please. He picked up the teacup with an obvious look of disdain on his face.
Meng Nianyao noticed it, and her heart clenched. Just as she was about to change the cup, she saw Grandma Gu quietly pinch Grandpa Gu’s arm. The disdain on Grandpa Gu’s face disappeared.
Seeing this, Meng Nianyao subconsciously smiled. Grandma Gu saw her smile and said with a grin, “Don’t mind him. That’s your grandfather’s personality. He doesn’t know much, but he still has the audacity to look down on others.”
“It’s alright.” Meng Nianyao laughed along.
Grandma Gu saw that Meng Nianyao had relaxed a lot and began to ask subtly, “Where did you come from? Was it Gu Wencheng who thought we might be bored and asked you to come back first to keep us company?”
Meng Nianyao didn’t know how to answer this question and could only awkwardly change the topic. “Grandpa, Grandma, would you like some fruit? I can cut some fruit for you.”

“You, child…” Grandma Gu grabbed Meng Nianyao’s hand. “Don’t be embarrassed. The both of us, along with Gu Wencheng’s parents, are very open-minded. You don’t have to be nervous or shy. Tell me, how long have you known Gu Wencheng? When did you two start living together? Since you’re already living together, have you considered marriage?”
Grandma Gu’s questions came one after another, but Meng Nianyao couldn’t answer any of them. What should she say about her relationship with Gu Wencheng? Was there a need to disclose a marriage that lacked emotional foundation? She and Gu Wencheng had such a vast difference in status that they were destined to be different people.
Meng Nianyao thought for a moment and was about to say that she was Gu Wencheng’s secretary. However, before she could respond, Gu Wencheng returned.
“What’s going on?”
Grandma Gu saw Gu Wencheng and her smile widened. “Ah, my good grandson, come over and let Grandma hug you. It’s been a long time.”
Gu Wencheng walked over, seemingly disdainful. “How old are you? Why do you keep hugging me?” Despite his words, he bent down and hugged Grandma Gu.
When Grandpa Gu heard that, he became instantly displeased. “What do you mean by ‘old’? Are you starting to dislike me and your grandmother just because we’re getting old?”
Grandpa Gu picked up his crutch and playfully hit Gu Wencheng. Gu Wencheng didn’t dodge and simply endured it. His grandfather seemed to be using a lot of strength, but in reality, it was like scratching an itch.
But Meng Nianyao didn’t know that. Seeing that Grandpa Gu was about to hit Gu Wencheng, she quickly interjected, “Grandpa, you seem to have expertise in tea leaves. I happen to know very little about this. Would you mind teaching me? I’ve been working closely with Gu Wencheng and often interact with clients. I’m afraid that if I don’t do well, the clients might be dissatisfied.”
Grandpa Gu halted his playful assault on Gu Wencheng.
Grandma Gu snorted. “Nianyao, I’ll teach you. Your grandfather’s tea-making skills are terrible. He doesn’t know how to brew tea!”
“Alright,” Meng Nianyao smiled.
Gu Wencheng glanced at Meng Nianyao and remarked, “Grandma, I must remind you that Grandpa’s tea is slightly better than yours. If Nianyao wants to learn, she should learn from Grandpa. Remember when Grandpa’s old friends came to visit? They were all here for his tea.”
Gu Wencheng’s words were a compliment to Grandpa Gu, who instantly felt satisfied. He put away his crutch and stroked his beard. “Kid, you have good taste.” Then, he turned to Meng Nianyao. “You have good taste too. I’ll teach you when Gu Wencheng takes you home.”
“Alright,” Meng Nianyao nodded with a smile.
Grandma Gu snorted, and Gu Wencheng hugged her. “Grandma, don’t be mad anymore. Are you hungry? Shall we go out for dinner?”
With Gu Wencheng’s return, those unanswered questions were pushed aside. Meng Nianyao felt relieved and was about to find an excuse to leave when Gu Wencheng said, “I’ll go get the car. Nianyao, please escort Grandpa and Grandma downstairs.”
Meng Nianyao was left speechless.
They went to a private restaurant for dinner. At the dinner table, Grandma Gu shifted the conversation several times back to Meng Nianyao and Gu Wencheng. Meng Nianyao still didn’t know how to answer and could only look at Gu Wencheng, who casually deflected the questions, frustrating Grandma Gu so much that she playfully hit him.
