The apple that Long Xiaohan had been enjoying so much suddenly tasted bland.

Small again?

Green again?

Not sweet?

He looked at the apple in Lei Jinting's hand. It seemed to be bigger than his apple, but he didn't know whether it was sweet or not.

Lei Jinting's expression looked better. He took a bite of the apple and nodded: "Well, this apple is sweet."

Long Xiaohan couldn't help but want to laugh.

The old man is quite interesting. He would fight for even an apple.

However, the young wife gave him the first apple, obviously intentionally for the old man to see. This was to show her attitude and to let the old man understand how important he was to the young wife.

Thinking of this, Long Xiaohan felt that the apple in his hand was too sweet, as if it had been soaked in honey.

At this time, the servant of the family came out: "Master, the meal is ready."

Lei Jinting stood up and said, "Okay, let's go and eat first."

After saying that, he walked towards the restaurant.

Tang Xin put away the fruit knife, wiped her hands with a tissue, and followed after him, holding Long Xiaohan's arm.

"You don't know, my chef is very skilled, and the Chinese food he makes is comparable to yours."

Long Xiaohan ate the apple clean in two bites: "Then I'll try it carefully, learn its taste, and then go back to make it for you."

"You don't have to learn his taste, yours tastes great, I like it."

……

The two of them chatted as if no one was around and followed Lei Jinting into the restaurant.

The three of them sat down, and Lei Jinting said, "Try it. These are all your favorites. You haven't tasted the flavors of home in the past six months, right?"

Tang Xin nodded: "Yes, it is true that I haven't eaten it for half a year, but Xiaohan's cooking skills are very good, not worse than our chef's. I like his taste more now."

Lei Jinting glanced at Long Xiaohan again, but Long Xiaohan pretended not to notice and handed a piece of pork ribs to Tang Xin: "You didn't eat much on the plane, eat more."

Tang Xin also picked up a meatball for Long Xiaohan: "Try this meatball, it's my chef's specialty. The juice inside the meatball is the essence of the meatball."

Long Xiaohan took a bite, and immediately the juice burst out, and the rich aroma filled his mouth.

"Yeah, it's really delicious."

Tang Xin smiled and said, "Is it delicious? Then eat more."

After saying that, he passed a meatball to Lei Jinting and said, "Old man, you eat too."

However, Tang Xin's action was obviously much more perfunctory than when she picked up food for Long Xiaohan.

The young couple finished their meal in a loving manner. It was obvious that Lei Jinting didn't eat much during this meal, much less than usual.

After the meal, Lei Jinting finally said, "You must be tired after sitting on the plane for more than ten hours. Go upstairs and rest. Long boy, accompany me to the garden for a walk and a meal."

Tang Xin took Long Xiaohan's arm and said, "He has also been on the plane for more than ten hours. He is also tired and needs to rest."

Lei Jinting looked at Long Xiaohan: "Are you so weak? Can't you handle sitting on a plane for more than ten hours?"

Long Xiaohan let go of Tang Xin's arm and patted the back of her hand: "You go and rest first, I'll walk with Grandpa."

Tang Xin looked into Long Xiaohan's eyes, and compromised after a moment: "Okay, then go ahead, but if old man Lei bullies you, remember to come back and tell me."

Long Xiaohan smiled and said, "Okay, I'm just taking a walk with Grandpa, what's the big deal? You're overthinking it."

After that, he walked to Lei Jinting and said, "Grandpa, I'll accompany you."

Long Xiaohan has always been very tactful. He is respectful but not humble. This balance is always at that critical point.

Lei Jinting led Long Xiaohan into the garden, and Lei Jinting asked first: "Do you really like my girl?"

Long Xiaohan nodded sincerely: "Of course, I love her."

Lei Jinting looked ahead and walked forward slowly: "Since you said you love her, why can't you change for her? Do you know how much effort I put in to keep her by my side and take care of her!"

Long Xiaohan slowly followed the old man's pace: "I love her, but I also respect her. In fact, rather than saying that she stayed in Country Z for me, it's better to say that she wants to live there. You should know this very well! And I have the ability to protect her, and she has the ability to protect herself. We are all adults, and no one will joke about their own lives. Besides, hiding under your wings will definitely make us safe and happy?"

Lei Jinting finally turned his head and glanced at Long Xiaohan: "You are quite sharp-tongued."

Long Xiaohan said calmly: "I am just stating the facts, and I think you should know Xin'er very well, otherwise you wouldn't have come to talk to me."

Lei Jinting really wanted to start with Long Xiaohan, but unfortunately he didn't expect that this kid's attitude was so firm, and this kid's psychological quality was so good that he could remain so calm in the face of him.

You have to know that around him, except Tang Xin, there is no one else who can withstand his pressure, even Lei Lingfeng is afraid of him.

This kid really has something.

However, even so, Lei Jinting did not intend to let him go, and continued: "What if I let her leave you? I have treated her as my own granddaughter all these years, and I will never allow her to pose any threat. If you can't stay and protect her, then you can leave."

Long Xiaohan looked at Lei Jinting with a firm gaze: "Grandpa, I support her to return to China, not because I have to stay in the country, but because she wants to go back. Besides, if you really love her, you should not want her to become a puppet by your side. Making her happy is the greatest love, right?"

Lei Jinting said somewhat displeasedly: "If safety cannot even be guaranteed, how can happiness be possible?"

Long Xiaohan said directly: "I think she has lived a happy and fulfilling life in the past six months."

Lei Jinting snorted coldly, took a few steps forward, and then continued: "It was all just luck!"

Long Xiaohan smiled and said, "In fact, you can also go to Country Z to live for a while and feel it. I think everyone is homesick. The love for the homeland is engraved in our bones."

Lei Jinting snorted indifferently: "Absurd."

Long Xiaohan said sincerely: "I don't know how long you have been away from Country Z. You always travel around now, probably looking for comfort, but you didn't find it. However, you never dared to set foot in Country Z because your comfort is there. Country Z has changed a lot now, it is really worth your visit again."

Lei Jinting stood still, looking into the distance, as if there was something there that attracted him and made him unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

Long Xiaohan did not interrupt him and stayed quietly beside Lei Jinting.

After a moment, Lei Jinting finally came to his senses, turned around and glared at Long Xiaohan, and said stubbornly: "You can't fool me!"

At this time, a subordinate ran over and whispered something in Lei Jinting's ear, and then Lei Jinting's face turned ugly.

After his subordinate finished speaking, Lei Jinting turned around and said, "You should go back and rest first."

Long Xiaohan saw that Lei Jinting was in trouble and asked, "What happened? Maybe I can help. You don't have to treat me as an outsider!"
