Chapter 1411: Missing You

Pei Dongshi had been planning this for a long time.

He consulted Jiang Yu and Elder Nan for their opinions, but Jiang Yu didn’t care about these matters as long as Nan Jiaojiao didn’t cause trouble in the Medicine Garden.

Even if she wanted to be a dung picker, he wouldn’t mind.

As for Elder Nan, he was even more indulgent, with Jiang Shan at home he cherished his precious granddaughter and felt sorry for her if she worked hard.

Pei Dongshi used reasoning and emotions to persuade Elder Nan, making him understand that it takes power to guard Jiang Shan, only then did Elder Nan reluctantly agree not to interfere.

As for Bo Yanching.

Pei Dongshi didn’t specifically go to talk with him.

But all his arrangements for Nan Jiaojiao were done right under Bo Yanching’s nose.

Otherwise, Bo Yanching wouldn’t have easily agreed to let Nan Jiaojiao work at E.Y.

Maybe it’s really because he’s getting older, and there’s no one around, Pei Dongshi cares for Nan Jiaojiao like a daughter, just afraid she won’t strive for herself.

This family is bound to fall apart without him sooner or later!

After eating, Nan Jiaojiao still drove her little ten-thousand-yuan car.

Pei Dongshi followed her for several blocks before they separated at the intersection.

Returning home and estimating that the time was still early, Nan Jiaojiao first took a shower.

Upon her return, she bought some small cakes from the dessert shop, then arranged them on the coffee table like a display, and set up her phone to video call Bo Yanching.

He answered quickly.

“So early today?”

Bo Yanching’s face appeared in the frame, he looked at her, then the camera turned aside.

A chessboard flashed quickly across the screen, followed by Elder Nan’s stern face.

“What are you showing me this for?

This girl isn’t looking for me!”

Bo Yanching chuckled, “Jiaojiao was just talking about you last night, she asked me many things about you.

She’s too shy to send you a video, knowing I’m playing chess with you, she called me instead.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s heart skipped a beat.

Is it really possible to lie with one’s eyes wide open like this?

“Is that so?”

Elder Nan arrogantly raised his chin, pretending to sternly stare at Nan Jiaojiao.

She swallowed the pudding in her mouth and nodded enthusiastically, “Yes, I miss Grandpa very much!”

Elder Nan didn’t buy it, he snorted, “Don’t give me that.

I know you, just like your little uncle, once you’re out, you’re nowhere to be found!”

“How can I be like my little uncle?

As long as Grandpa misses me, I can come back anytime!”

“Do you think I believe you?”

“Really, really!” Nan Jiaojiao leaned her face close to the screen, “Look at my sincere eyes.”

Elder Nan pinched a white chess piece, pretending to ask, “I quite miss you right now.”

“Then I’ll come back on Friday!”

Elder Nan’s hand shook, and the piece that hadn’t yet hit the board nearly slipped from his fingers.

His heart jumped, good heavens, this piece is fine jade—it’s costly!

“Really?”

“Really!”

She had no hesitation at all.

Which seemed particularly untrustworthy!

Elder Nan clutched his chest, turned his head to Uncle Qiu saying, “Maybe you should make an appointment with a psychotherapist for me.

I feel I’ve gotten old, starting to hear things.

Did you hear any sound just now?”

Uncle Qiu smiled and said nothing.

Elder Nan stared at Nan Jiaojiao, “That’s the trick of all the swindlers!”

“Not lying to you, I’m working now isn’t it, and I can take weekends off, I’ll come back after work on Friday and accompany you for two days.”

Elder Nan paused, wanting to ask, but the person to ask would be Bo Yanching, he suddenly snapped out of it, forcibly holding back, then turned to ask Uncle Qiu, “What day is today?”

“Sir, today is Monday.”

“Oh, Monday.”

Elder Nan looked calm, secretly placed his hand under the chess table, counting on his fingers.
