The cannon fodder female supporting role in the misplaced life

Xu Yingying's eyes widened, her face filled with surprise as she stared at Lin Weiye before her. She couldn't believe that this overbearing CEO, always focused on his career and acting decisively, could now speak such tender words. Recalling his initial arrival, Lin Weiye had been cold and aloof, a stark contrast to the present. Back then, he'd been completely absorbed in his work, as if the world revolved around his business empire. But now, he was putting his family first, which truly surprised and delighted Xu Yingying.

His wife just stood there quietly, staring at him without blinking, her gaze as if she could see through him. Lin Weiye felt a little uneasy under her gaze, and a hint of doubt arose in his heart. He hurriedly took two steps forward, came to his wife's side, and asked softly, "Honey, what's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me so intently? Is there something strange growing on my face?" As he spoke, he reached out his right hand and subconsciously touched his cheek, as if to confirm whether there was really anything unusual.

However, in the face of Lin Weiye's concerned inquiries and slightly funny behavior, Xu Yingying seemed not to hear anything. She just turned her body slightly and quickly turned her head to the side, no longer looking at him. At the same time, she closed her lips tightly and said nothing.

At this moment, Xu Yingying was secretly thinking in her heart: I must not let this guy know the true thoughts in my heart, otherwise, with his narcissistic personality, his tail will probably be all over the sky! Thinking of this, she secretly gritted her teeth and tried hard to restrain the urge to confide.

Meanwhile, Lin Weiye was puzzled when he saw Xu Yingying not only didn't answer his question but turned away in silence. He pressed the issue again, "Why aren't you talking? Are you feeling unwell or down? If there's anything on your mind, please tell me." His words were filled with worry and concern.

Yet, despite the others' concerned inquiries, Xu Yingying remained nonchalant, simply responding, "Nothing!" Her soft voice was like the hum of a mosquito, thin as a thread, barely audible. As soon as she finished speaking, she climbed onto the bed, oblivious to the others, burying herself completely in the soft covers. Seeing this, Lin Weiye shook his head helplessly and followed suit, climbing onto the other side of the bed.

The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight filtered through the slits in the curtains, Lin Weiye slowly awoke. He instinctively turned to look beside him, only to see Xu Yingying still deep in sweet sleep, her breathing steady and even. Unable to bear disturbing her sweet dreams, Lin Weiye quietly slipped out of bed and headed for the next room.

Gently pushing open the door, Lin Weiye saw his daughter, Lin Xinyi, lying quietly in bed, a faint smile on her face, as if she were dreaming a beautiful dream. He walked over to the bedside and called softly, "Baby, it's time to get up. We're going to have breakfast together, and then Daddy will take you to school." Hearing her father's familiar voice, Lin Xinyi rubbed her sleepy eyes and slowly sat up.

After washing up, the father and daughter went to the restaurant to have breakfast together. At this time, Mr. Lin had already been sitting at the table waiting for a long time.

Seeing them come in, Mr. Lin showed a kind smile on his face and asked with concern, "Why are there only the two of you? Where is Yingying?"

Lin Weiye smiled as he carefully served his daughter Lin Xinyi a bowl of steaming porridge. He softly replied, "Yingying, she's still sound asleep in her room. I just checked in and saw she was sleeping so soundly. I couldn't bear to wake her up. So I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you, Grandpa, to take care of her today."

Upon hearing this, Old Master Lin, who was sitting nearby, immediately burst into a hearty laugh. He waved his hand lovingly and said loudly, "Hahaha, Weiye, why are you saying these polite words to me? Taking care of your grandson's wife and great-grandson is not a hard job at all! This is what a grandfather should do! And I'm so happy that you can come back to live here. I'm so happy that I feel like flying!"

Hearing this, Lin Weiye also laughed. He gently touched Lin Xinyi's little head, then stood up and said to Grandpa Lin, "Grandpa, I'll take Xinyi to kindergarten first." Lin Xinyi nodded obediently, holding a mouthful of porridge in her mouth and mumbling, "Dad, I'm full."

At that moment, Mr. Lin smiled, gently waving his weathered hand as he earnestly admonished, "Alright, go! Be careful along the way. I'm home with you, so just relax." With that, his loving gaze followed his grandson and adorable great-granddaughter as they slowly walked out the door, until they disappeared from sight. At that moment, Mr. Lin's heart was filled with joy and satisfaction, his face brimming with a happy smile.

However, what Mr. Lin had not expected was that Xu Yingying actually slept until noon. At first, he was really worried, fearing that something might happen to Xu Yingying.

He quickly picked up his phone and called his grandson, Lin Weiye, anxiously inquiring about Xu Yingying's condition. When his grandson told him that Xu Yingying would recover with just enough rest, Grandpa Lin's heart, which had been hanging high in the air, finally settled down like a huge rock. Now that things had developed to this point, his nervousness dissipated, and he naturally gave up the idea of asking Sister Yang to go upstairs to wake Xu Yingying.

At this moment, there was a slight sound of footsteps on the stairs, and Xu Yingying came downstairs with sleepy eyes. She rubbed her eyes with her hands and walked towards the people downstairs with a slightly apologetic look.

Seeing this, Mr. Lin quickly turned around and said to Mrs. Yang who was standing beside him with a loving look on his face: "Mrs. Yang, go and bring up the lunch that you prepared."

After hearing what the master said, Mrs. Yang quickly responded, "Okay, master, I'll go to the kitchen and get all the food." After that, she turned around and hurried towards the kitchen.

Xu Yingying walked into the living room and said to Grandpa Lin a little embarrassedly, "Grandpa, I'm so sorry. I just accidentally overslept."
