Chapter 69 Hearts
She listened to the footsteps outside from time to time, thinking that Lei Xiong was coming.
As those steps approached and left again and again, her heart slowly sinks: Did he forget it? He said he wanted to teach me martial arts, but forgot it the first time?!
The sun sets, and there is silence outside the door.
Yan Wu put away the books and began to prepare supper. Although she was busy with her hands, she still listened carefully to the movements outside the door.
Gradually, it was already dark, and footsteps finally sounded outside the door again.
Yan Wu couldn't help but feel happy. When she came to the yard, she was about to open the door, her heart calmed down again. Because she had already heard that it was the footsteps of Yan Haifu and Xiao Hei.
Yan Wu opened the door, looked at Yan Haifu's full medicine basket, and said, "Grandpa, you've got a good harvest today! But don't come back so late next time."
Yan Haifu saw the strangeness of his granddaughter and asked, "Did that kid bully you?"
Yan Wu shook her head and said lightly: "He didn't come."
Yan Haifu said: "It's best if you don't come, just ignore him in the future."
Yan Wu did not answer him, brought the food out and said, "Grandpa, let's have a meal!"
Yan Haifu smiled and said, "What did Wang Quan say about writing a letter? I just like that boy, who is knowledgeable and down-to-earth."
Yan Wu said: "Grandpa, you will protect him. He hasn't written a letter for a while."
Yan Haifu heard the worry in his granddaughter's tone and said, "Xiao Wu, don't worry. If he dares to be sorry to you, grandpa will definitely not be able to spare him."
Yan Wu said: "Grandpa, where have you been thinking about? I was just worried about whether he was good at school, and I didn't say he bullied me."
Yan Haifu smiled again and said, "That's right, I know you haven't changed your mind."
Yan Wu suddenly realized and said, "Grandpa! You are so bad. It turns out that you are testing me."
Yan Haifu picked up a chopstick dish and put it in Yan Wu's bowl and said, "You are too kind, I'm afraid you will be fooled by others."
Yan Wu said: "You are still prejudiced to foreigners."
Yan Haifu said: "It's not that I'm prejudiced. Look, I won't come if I don't say hello if I make an appointment with you. Only those who say no to trust in this way are only foreigners."
Yan Wu glared at him softly and said, "Grandpa, he wants to come, you said don't let him come. This is not here, you said he is untrustworthy. I think you are not only prejudiced to foreigners, but also prejudice against Lei Xiong."
Yan Haifu said: "No wonder people say that girls are stolen by others, for the sake of a foreigner, they will be snatching your grandfather like this."
Yan Wu said: "Okay, don't worry, I know what to do."
Yan Haifu said: "It's good that you know."
The grandfather and grandson stopped talking, and even Xiao Hei was very quiet. He blinked his dark eyes, as if he was enjoying this quiet time.
Lei Xiong came out of the hospital and saw that it was dark, so he used his light skills and soared into the air. In short, no matter what the reason was, he couldn't wait to run to the small courtyard.
Yan Haifu went out with a flashlight and carrying a load of water bucket, and Xiao Hei followed behind.
Yanwu chased him out and asked, "Grandpa, where are you going?"
Yan Haifu said: "I'll go to the vegetable field to see it. It's time to water the newly planted cabbage yesterday."
Yan Wu said in surprise: "You are still going to water the vegetables so late?"
Yan Haifu did not answer, and each person and an animal had already walked away with the light of the flashlight.
Yan Wu shouted to his back: "Then go and go back!"
She wondered in her heart that although it was common to water vegetables in the evening, it was completely dark now, and watering vegetables was not an urgent matter.
She just felt that grandpa had changed recently, and as for what was different from before, she couldn't say it, and that ominous premonition quietly came up again.
She couldn't figure it out and had to comfort herself. Maybe I was too sensitive and liked to think about it without any reason.
She entered the house and was about to turn around and close the door when a familiar voice recalled behind her:
"Yanwu!"
Yan Wu's heartbeat and turned around. It was the person she had been waiting for for a day.
She looked at Lei Xiong and said, "You?"
Lei Xiong smiled and said, "I used light skills."
Yan Wu felt warm and said, "Come in!"
Lei Xiong looked at her quiet posture and said, "I'm sorry, I went to the airport to pick up the general manager today. So, I'm late."
Yan Wu smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter. If you are new to the company there, you must put your work first and you can't delay it because of me."
Lei Xiong was happy and said, "Yan Wu, you have been waiting for me, are you?"
Yan Wu said lightly: "No, you haven't eaten yet! I'll make it for you."
Lei Xiong said: "No, is your grandfather at home?"
Yan Wu smiled and said, "He just went out. Are you having trouble with him?"
Lei Xiong said slowly: "Two people in our company were burned and may be disfigured. One of them was a girl."
Yan Wu was shocked and asked, "What should I do?"
Lei Xiong said: "Your grandfather is very good at medical skills, so he must have a solution."
Yan Wu nodded and felt relieved. It turned out that you came to save people, not just for the agreement with me.
She said: "My grandfather usually treats people with ordinary symptoms. I don't know if he is sure of this kind of burn."
Lei Xiong said: "Based on my judgment, he should be able to do it because he is willing to do it."
Yan Wu was puzzled, and looked at him with beautiful eyes and asked, "Why did you say that?"
Lei Xiong said: "I respect your grandfather very much. He has great martial arts skills, good medical skills, and is capable of it. But, to be honest, he is also a very strange old man, and seems to have something unspeakable. Moreover, he seems to have a great prejudice against me."
Yan Wu said leisurely: "What's wrong with you? My grandfather once saved you, why do you think of him like that?"
Lei Xiong heard the conversation between Yan Haifu and Ke Dalong that day, and his advice to him. After analysis, he had concluded that Yan Haifu and Ke Dalong were not just a simple pair of masters and apprentices. Yan Haifu was afraid of Ke Dalong, which was either related to his safety, interests, or dignity. A person had some concerns, but nothing more than these three. In terms of martial arts, he had witnessed with his own eyes how Yan Haifu subdued Ke Dalong, so he naturally would not worry about his safety. Yan Haifu had excellent medical skills but was hidden in the city, and he must not be a person who loves money. Then, it must be related to his dignity or reputation. Since he did not want his granddaughter to know, it must also be related to his family or granddaughter himself.
Lei Xiong didn't want to explore other people's family affairs, let alone Yan Haifu saved his life, but Yan Haifu indulged Ke Dalong to escape from justice, and he could not bear it. Besides, if the matter what the master asked him to do was not completed, how could he let go?
He said: "Yan Wu, I didn't mean it. Have you ever asked your grandpa who Lin Menglan is?"
Yan Wu looked confused and said, "Are you talking about your master's wife? I haven't asked him, how could my grandfather know who she is? You didn't say, you asked him, but he didn't know him."
Lei Xiong said: "Yes, but I always feel that this matter has something to do with your grandfather."
Yan Wu said: "You go back. It's getting late, so I won't learn today."
Lei Xiong said: "Are you angry with me?"
Yan Wu smiled slightly and said, "No."
"Do you mind that I am obsessed with Lin Menglan's affairs? I don't know why, I always want to keep track of it and not bother you." Lei Xiong said in a low voice, "I'm not going to comment on your grandfather. You know, I can't hide things in my heart."
Yan Wu said: "Actually, you can't use it, and don't come in the future."
Lei Xiong said: "No matter how late I have made an agreement with you, I will come. I don't want you to wait for nothing. Today, there is something really delayed."
"You really don't have to come again."
"Why?"
Yan Wu could hear that although he spoke very lightly, his questions were so strong. His eyes were firm and gentle, and she could not avoid them.
However, she shook her head and said, "You don't have to teach me, my grandfather can teach."
Lei Xiong smiled softly and said, "So that's the case, is it for the royal power?"
Yan Wu said: "No, it has nothing to do with anyone."
Lei Xiong said: "I have seen your grandfather's martial arts skills, and he is indeed a master. But why did he refuse to teach you before?"
Yan Wu said: "I'm puzzled, and I only recently learned that he knows martial arts."
The two seemed to have a good understanding of this question. When they thought of going together, they didn't know what to say. They were silent for a moment. In the dark night, only the sound of the wind blowing off the leaves was heard in their ears.
After a while, Lei Xiong said: "Yan Wu, I want to tell you one more thing, I hope you won't cause trouble."
Yan Wu was so handsome and kind-hearted, saying, "If you think it will, don't tell me."
Lei Xiong paused and said, "Before I met you, I didn't know what it was like to like someone. But since the moment I saw you, my heart has become different. I confirm that I like you deeply."
Yan Wu didn't go to see him and whispered: "That's your illusion. Maybe it's not surprising that everyone who sees me will have such an illusion."
She has always been reserved and low-key, but she doesn't know why she said this.
Lei Xiong said: "No! You are indeed as beautiful as a fairy, but my appreciation and love for you is not just because of your beauty."
Yan Wu said: "In this open era, it is enough for us to meet by chance."
Lei Xiong said: "I don't care how you think I am, but you can't deny my love for you."
Yan Wu said, "Stop talking."
Lei Xiong said: "Don't worry, I have no other intentions, and I don't expect anything. I just want you to know. I have been entrusted by the royal family to take care of you. No matter what, I hope you and the royal family can be happy."
Yan Wu said: "Since you said this to me, you are already disloyal to your friends."
Lei Xiong smiled and said, "I am used to being free and easy. I will say whatever I think of in my heart. I don't like to hide it. I will explain it to him if I have the chance. I hope he loves you more."
Yan Wu's heart trembled and said, "I know you are bright and open, but why are you doing this?"
Lei Xiong said: "I'm afraid if I don't tell you now, there will be no chance."
He didn't get the same response from Yan Wu, which was originally as expected, but finally said these words and he felt enlightened.
