The cannon fodder female supporting role in the misplaced life

Old Master Lin didn't expect that even his beloved grandson would say such sour words to tease him. For a moment he was speechless and didn't know how to refute them.

Xu Yingying's eyes widened, staring in disbelief at her usually mature and steady husband, who was now showing such a playful side. She couldn't help but smile, but when she noticed Mr. Lin's slightly embarrassed and somewhat embarrassed expression, she quickly reacted, stepped forward, and offered to step down, saying in a sweet voice, "Grandpa, look, we've come all this way. Can you bear to let us stand outside with you like this?"

Old Master Lin was stunned at first, then he laughed and waved his hands, responding with a kind face: "Oh, look at me, such an old fool! Come in quickly. Let Sister Yang prepare some fresh fruits and exquisite snacks to entertain you." As he spoke, he affectionately took Xu Yingying's hand and patted it gently.

Xu Yingying's face blossomed with a smile as bright as a flower, and she said sweetly: "Hehe, grandpa loves us the most!" Then, she and her husband Lin Weiye supported Grandpa Lin and walked into the Lin residence, and found a comfortable place in the living room to sit down.

As soon as he sat down, Lin Weiye couldn't help but steal a glance at Xu Yingying beside him. There was a hint of inquiry in his eyes, as if asking if she planned to personally tell Grandpa about the joyous news of her pregnancy. Xu Yingying naturally understood what he meant. She turned her head back to look at Lin Weiye, a flicker of hesitation in her eyes, but ultimately she kept her lips tightly shut and didn't speak.

Old Master Lin, seated at the head table, appeared to be leisurely sipping his teacup, but in reality, his sharp eyes had already captured every little interaction between the two men below him. From time to time, they would steal glances at each other, their lips curling slightly, as if hiding something secret. The old man pondered inwardly, already guessing something was going on.

At that moment, Old Man Lin coughed softly, a sound neither loud nor soft, but perfectly breaking the silence. He set down his teacup, smiled, and looked at the two people in front of him with interest. He said, "Hey, you two, what's going on? Stop flirting and playing dumb! Tell me the truth!"

Hearing the old man's words, Lin Weiye quickly stood up, his face filled with unconcealable joy, and he replied respectfully, "Grandpa, this is it. We went to the hospital for a checkup yesterday, and guess what? The doctor said that we'll soon have another great-grandson!"

Mr. Lin, who had expected to hear something else, was clearly surprised by this unexpected good news. After all, when he had previously asked them about their plans for another child, the couple had firmly stated that they had no immediate plans. However, now that they were pregnant, it was undoubtedly a great thing, and the old man was naturally overjoyed.

Old Master Lin feigned anger as he glared at his son, Lin Weiye, and his daughter-in-law, Xu Yingying. His gray eyebrows knitted tightly together as he complained with feigned discontent, "You two, you've waited until now to tell me such a big thing! Humph, if you'd waited any longer, I probably wouldn't have known until the baby was born and started calling me Great Grandpa!"

Xu Yingying, who was standing nearby, saw that the old man seemed to be really angry, and hurriedly explained tenderly: "Grandpa, please don't blame us. In fact, we just confirmed this great news yesterday. Today, as soon as we saw the opportunity, we immediately rushed over to report it to you." As she spoke, she gently reached out and tugged at the corner of her husband Lin Weiye's clothes, hinting with her eyes that he should quickly apologize to the old man.

After hearing this, the anger on Mr. Lin's face subsided a little, but he still asked with a stern face: "That's not what you told me before..."

At this time, Lin Weiye hurriedly took over the conversation and said, "Grandpa, this is indeed a pure accident. But haven't you always wanted to have a few more great-grandchildren? This is perfect, now it has come true as you wish." As soon as the words fell, his originally serious face instantly blossomed into a flattering smile, that smile was as bright as the warm spring sun, his eyes narrowed into a slit, staring straight at the old man in front of him, as if waiting for the other party to give affirmation and praise.

When Mr. Lin heard this, a look of satisfaction immediately appeared on his face, but he quickly frowned again and said with concern, "You two are busy running around all day. I think why don't you take this opportunity to move back home? We have a spare room at home, so it will be more convenient for you to take care of Yingying."

Lin Weiye was completely caught off guard by his grandfather's sudden request to move back home, and was momentarily stunned. But upon reflection, he felt it made sense. After all, his work was unique, and while he could put his company affairs aside for now to be with Xu Yingying, if they could move back to the old house, perhaps Xu Yingying would truly enjoy more comprehensive and attentive care.

Thinking of this, Lin Weiye couldn't help but turn his head and looked at Xu Yingying beside him with gentle eyes, as if asking: "Dear, what do you think of grandpa's suggestion?" Xu Yingying's eyes as clear as autumn water blinked gently a few times, and a look of confusion appeared on her face. She shook her head gently, as if lost in the fog, indicating that she knew nothing about the little thoughts in Lin Weiye's heart.

However, beneath her seemingly innocent exterior, her intelligent mind had already begun to work furiously. She secretly thought: Since Grandpa was so excited and looking forward to their early return, and deep down she actually had no objection or aversion to returning to this old house full of memories and warmth, then perhaps agreeing to the offer wouldn't be such a bad thing after all?

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying couldn't help but nodded slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
