Chapter 319 - The Kind Offer
"Vacation? When did you guys plan this?" Ning inquired.
"Yesterday night," Yichan informed.
Raising her brows, she added, "Why do I feel like you boys are up to something."
"Why would you feel like that? I am just being a good brother and sending Yitian for a vacation."
"Where is he going?"
"To Mr.Wang\'s parents place," he informed.
Widening her eyes in shock, she snapped, "What? He is going for a vacation where Liying is right now?" When Yichan nodded his head, Ning smacked his ass. "Smarty ass."
"Did you just spank me?"
"Yes, do you have a problem with that?"
"Hmm of course not but if you continue behaving like this, we both might be late for work," he remarked before inching closer.
"I did not hear or see anything." With his eyes squeezed shut and his hands pressed against his ears, Yitian slowly walked inside.
"Open your eyes before you trip on something and hurt yourself," Yichan instructed.
Walking towards the dining table, Yitian quickly sat down. "I should eat something light today."
"Someone seems very happy today, are you excited for your vacation?" When Yitian nodded his head, Ning smiled and ruffled his hair. "Have fun."
"Pack warm clothes, Mr.Wang told me it\'s quite chilly there," Yichan informed.
Yitian nodded his head and answered, "I already did."
Raising his brows, Yichan inquired, "How did you know it\'s chilli there?"
"Kids these days are very fast, he must have checked weather on the internet," Ning remarked.
When Yitian nodded his head, Yichan sighed, "Okay, since you are going for a vacation, I want you to have a nice time but amidst the enjoyment, don\'t forget to take care of yourself and if anything happens, call me straight away."
After having breakfast, Yichan went to his study room while Ning would prepare some soup for Ziyi. Both of them took a day off from the office to visit Ziyi who had woken up in the morning.
"So, how did you find out about the weather?" Ning inquired.
"Hmm, last time when Liying called me, she was wearing a thick jacket so I figured it out," Yitian answered .
"That is smart." Taking the dishes inside the kitchen, she asked him. "So are you excited about the vacation?"
"Yes, I am and I promise, I won\'t mess up this time," he answered while following her.
"Seems like you had a good talk with your brother last night." Ruffling his hair, she smiled, "Have fun and don\'t forget to call me whenever you can, okay?"
"Sister Ning, I heard about your mother." Pausing for a while, he added, "How is she now?"
"She is much better. In fact, Yi and I are visiting her after I am done with this soup."
"I wish I could meet her before leaving but—"
"It\'s alright, you can always meet her after coming back."
….
Hospital.
"But—what am I gonna do then?"
"My house is very big, I am sure I can spare a room for you," Grandpa Yang remarked.
Scrunching his brows, grandpa Jiang fumed, "I am not shifting to your place."
"Then what is your problem? I am taking my son and daughter-in-law home as soon as she gets discharged from the hospital. If you think your old bones can handle staying alone then well and good otherwise you don\'t really have a choice," grandpa Yang stated .
"You—"
"Dad—both dad\'s, can we discuss this after some time?" Weilong tried to calm both of them down.
"Does that mean you don\'t wanna come back home?"
"What? When did I say that? Of course I will come back and Ziyi wants the same thing too. But we also can\'t leave dad alone, right?" Weilong remarked.
"I also know that this is why I am being so considerate. I am being a gentleman, considering her father-in-law\'s age and inviting him to stay in my place even though I am not fond of him," Grandpa Yang stated.
"Oh my God, why is it so noisy here?" Ning frowned.
"It\'s nothing honey, we are just discussing where your new grandpa is going to stay after your mom and dad shift back to the mansion," grandpa Yang answered.
"Oh, you guys are shifting back?" Smiling at them, Ning added, "That is great news, at least now I don\'t have to be worried about grandpa being alone." Walking towards Ziyi, she asked, "How are you feeling now mom?"
Ziyi was completely dumbfounded when Ning called her \'mom\' all of a sudden. The sudden gush of emotions sprayed through her eyes. "I—" Not being able to say a word, she grabbed Ning\'s hand and gave her a hug. "I am sorry, I know I have wronged you—"
Cutting her off, Ning remarked, "Let\'s not talk about that anymore." Pulling away, she wiped her tears. "Don\'t cry, it\'s not good for your health. I bought some soup for you and lunch for everyone, you all should eat it before it gets cold."
Looking at Weilong, she added, "Dad, you should also eat something. I am sure you haven\'t eaten anything since yesterday."
"No he hasn\'t, he was holding me and crying like a baby last night," Grandpa Yang scoffed.
"Alright, let\'s have lunch then" Looking at Yichan, Ning instructed, "Yi, we need some plates."
Passing her the container where the food was packed, Yichan answered, "I\'ll be right back."
Keeping the container on the table, Ning said, "I made a very special soup for you mom, I hope you will like it."
"While Yichan is getting plates, why don\'t we discuss something very important," Grandpa Yang stated.
"Okay, what is it?"
"Weilong and Ziyi are coming home with me but since Junop will be alone, I am being a gentleman and inviting him to stay with us as well. Now you tell me Ning, how is that wrong?" grandpa Yang asked.
"Well, that doesn\'t sound that bad. I mean, it\'s definitely inconvenient for grandpa Jiang to stay alone and I am sure mom and dad will never feel at peace if they leave you behind. So to make everything convenient for everyone, I think it\'s best for you to take up the offer," Ning suggested.
