Spring River Chasing the Moon

"Come here, come to grandma."

Ye Ran waved at Luo Youyou.

Luo Youyou walked over, and as soon as he reached her, Ye Ran took out a velvet gift bag from his pocket and handed it to Luo Youyou.

"This is a gift from your grandparents."

Ye Ran took out a gift from inside, which was a gold bracelet.

Luo Youyou felt a little flattered. She didn't expect that Yan's grandparents would prepare gifts for her.

Ye Ran picked up Luo Youyou's left hand and was about to put it on her. Luo Youyou looked at Chen Ze and Li Muzhi for help. She didn't know whether she should accept such an expensive gift, especially since it was their first meeting.

Chen Ze and Li Muzhi looked at it and said hurriedly that it was too polite and they could not accept it.

"Old Yan, what you did was wrong. When I went to see you that day, I didn't even give your grandson any gifts."

"Yes, you guys are spending too much."

Li Muzhi was not very familiar with the Yan family. She had only seen Chen Ze and Yan Lei once or twice when they often went out to eat together.

Later, Yan Lei and his lover went abroad due to health reasons. They had no contact information in Haicheng and lost contact.

Now that someone has given Luo Youyou such a big gift, how can Li Muzhi feel comfortable doing this?

When Yan Lei saw Chen Ze and his wife trying to refuse, he raised his hand to stop them.

"It's just a small gift, nothing."

"When you talked about your little granddaughter the other day, your face was full of pride, and I was so envious. I thought that when we meet one day, I must bring something for the child, and satisfy the regrets of both of us."

"If you keep refusing, I'll be angry."

Seeing that Chen Ze was still refusing, Yan Lei pretended to be displeased.

Chen Ze and Li Muzhi stopped moving and just thought about what gifts they should prepare for the younger generation of the Yan family after returning home.

Ye Ran then put the gold bracelet on Luo Youyou. Luo Youyou looked at the golden circle on her hand and quickly thanked him.

"Thank you, grandma, and thank you, Grandpa Yan."

"Oh, this child is really well-behaved."

Seeing that Luo Youyou was becoming more and more satisfied, Ye Ran asked her to sit next to him.

"Where's your grandson? Are there just the two of you at home?"

Chen knew that Yan Lei's grandson had been with them since childhood, and was the closest to them. That day, when they visited Yan Lei, the child had taken care of Yan Lei's meals, medicine, and water. After everything was done, he returned to his room and said goodbye to their guests. He was polite and composed, despite his young age.

"He was just taking care of me at home. When I returned to my room, he said he was going out for a while. I don't know where he went."

Yan Lei felt proud when talking about his grandson.

"He probably went to the bookstore or to see some friends. He's a very calm child and he never runs around when he goes out. We never worry about him."

Chen nodded. The child was indeed down-to-earth and was said to be top-notch in all aspects of his studies.

At this moment, the grandson who Yan Lei said would not run around was wandering around the community.

Although Luo Youyou told him the building and address of the Chen family, Xu Zhi walked around several times but couldn't find it.

He wondered if it was because he hadn't been here for a long time. In the past, he went directly to Yan Lei's house and was not very familiar with the community environment.

After walking around again, Xu Zhi began to doubt whether Luo Youyou had remembered it wrong. He remembered the painting and looked for it according to the details in the painting.

Finally, he stopped in front of a house. After looking at the house number, Xu Zhiye realized that Building 9, No. 9, had become Building 6, No. 9. The "9" was loose. Xu Zhiye also looked around with his hands. No wonder he couldn't find it.

He looked at the courtyard that looked similar to the one in the painting, gently pushed open the white entrance door outside the courtyard, and walked in.

Xu Zhi also felt very strange. One day he actually found himself standing in the scene in the painting. It was a little unbelievable.

He walked to the door carefully, raised his hand and knocked, but no one responded.

After waiting for half a minute, Xu Zhi knocked again, but still no one came to open the door. He was sure that no one was at Luo Youyou's house.

This made Xu Zhi a little annoyed. He should have called Luo Youyou in advance before coming.

There was no other way, Xu Zhi could only go back to his grandfather's house first. He planned to come back after dinner, thinking that if Luo Youyou and her family went out, they should come back in the evening.

What Xu Zhi never expected was that when he returned to his grandfather's house, Luo Youyou was sitting there, smiling next to his grandmother.

"Aye is back."

When Ye Ran saw his grandson coming home, he quickly called him over.

"Come here quickly and meet Grandpa Chen, Grandma Li, and the little sister."

The moment Luo Youyou saw Xu Zhiye coming in from the door, her whole body went numb. She was not sure whether that person was Xu Zhiye.

And Ye Ran called the other person "Aye" in her ear.

Luo Youyou almost screamed, but fortunately she suddenly realized that she was not outside and that she and Xu Zhiye were not alone, so she could only suppress her excitement.

Xu Zhi also looked calm. He changed into slippers and walked in front of Chen Ze and Li Mu, greeting them politely.

"Grandpa Chen, Grandma Li, hello."

This was not the first time Chen Ze had met Xu Zhiye. He had a very good first impression of Xu Zhiye and greeted him with a smile.

Li Muzhi didn't expect that the little grandson of the Yan family would be so handsome. He looked like he was only in his teens, but he was already like an adult. Facing a few strangers in his home, he was neither curious nor shy, but very open and confident.

"where have you been?"

Yan Lei asked Xu Zhiye if there was enough time to go to the nearest bookstore.

"I went for a walk around the neighborhood."

When saying this, Xu Zhiye seemed to glance at Luo Youyou.

But he still pretended nothing had happened and continued talking to Yan Lei.

"I haven't been here for a long time. The neighborhood has changed a lot. I almost got lost."

Yan Lei looked at Xu Zhiye, wondering what nonsense this kid was suddenly talking about and why he was "lost". Since he was a child, his memory has been much better than that of ordinary people. He can remember the route after walking through an unfamiliar place only once, not to mention that he lived in this community for so long when he was a child.

Xu Zhi didn't continue talking. Ye Ran pulled Luo Youyou over and introduced her to Xu Zhi.

"Aye, this is Grandpa Chen's granddaughter Luo Youyou."

"Yes, this is grandma's grandson, Xu Zhiye. You can just call him brother."

Luo Youyou was still in shock and didn't hear Ye Ran's words clearly.

Just hearing the words "Aye" and "Brother", she opened her mouth and called out to Xu Zhiye.

"Aye-nii-nii."

Xu Zhi was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Luo Youyou to call him like that.

The name "Aye" is his nickname, and only a few elders call him that. Luo Youyou usually calls him "Brother Zhiye", and he was a little unresponsive when he suddenly changed his name.

The elders didn't think there was anything wrong with Luo Youyou calling him that, and seeing that Xu Zhi didn't react, Ye Ran reminded him.

"Aye, my sister is greeting you."

Xu Zhiye finally came back to his senses and nodded at Luo You.

"Grandma, let me take my sister upstairs to play together."

Ye Ran also felt that Luo Youyou must be bored being among the four old people, so he asked Chen Ze and Li Muzhi. Seeing that they had no objection, he agreed that Xu Zhi should take Luo Youyou upstairs as well.

"Go ahead and take good care of your sister."

Xu Zhi also nodded.
