Chapter 27 Drowning? I think she's perfectly fine.

Shen Mingyu felt somewhat numb. This time, he chose to tell the truth while concealing information that was favorable to Shen Baisu. He refused to believe that his grandmother would always favor Shen Baisu.

“Shen Baisu did something wrong. She pushed Ruoxi into the pool, and Ruoxi almost drowned.”

The old woman said, "Drowned? Don't try to fool me. I saw her perfectly fine just now."

"If she had really almost drowned, wouldn't you have taken her to the hospital sooner?"

Shen Mingyu: "..."

So you're suddenly being clever? Why didn't you nitpick the details when you were talking about Shen Baisu earlier?

The old lady continued, "Susu is a good child. Why would she bully Du Ruoxi for no reason? There must be a reason, right?"

"Tell me, what's the reason? Don't try to fool me."

Meeting the old lady's sharp gaze, Shen Mingyu silently sat up straight and chose to tell the truth, "It was Ruoxi who picked the fruit from Shen Baisu's tree. That tree was originally meant for Shen Baisu's senior to use for research. Shen Baisu got angry when she found out the fruit had been picked."

Upon hearing this, the old lady's face instantly turned cold. "Is Du Ruoxi that greedy? Why did she have to come here and pick Su Su's fruit?"

"Is it because her family can't afford to grow trees or buy fruit? Why does she have to pick fruit that others use for research?"

"Go downstairs and call her up for me."

Seeing the old lady's expression, Shen Mingyu knew that Du Ruoxi was about to be scolded by her. However, he didn't dare to argue with her and slowly walked out after turning around.

As Shen Mingyu walked out of the second-floor living room, Shen Baisu happened to be carrying a fruit basket in one hand and holding Su Qing's hand in the other, brushing past him as he entered the room.

After seeing the types of fruit lying in the fruit basket, Shen Mingyu silently swallowed and instantly didn't want to go downstairs anymore.

Is this for Grandma?

He wanted to eat it too!

In the afternoon, he had already gone to the backyard to check, and there was no fruit left on the trees. Uncle Lin said that the trees in the flowerpots had been taken away by Shen Baisu's senior, and as for the four trees that remained, all the fruit on them had been picked clean by Shen Baisu.

He didn't know if Shen Baisu was afraid that someone would steal the fruit again, but anyway, she picked even the unripe ones. He wanted to secretly pick one to taste, but there was nowhere to pick one.

Unaware of Shen Mingyu's thoughts, after bringing Su Qing inside, Shen Baisu greeted the old lady, "Grandma."

The old lady immediately turned to look at Shen Baisu, and said with a smile, "Susu is here?"

Seeing Shen Baisu holding a girl's hand, the old lady turned her attention to her. "What a robust girl! Where did such a blessed-looking girl come from?"

The old lady's eyes lit up the moment she saw Su Qing.

This girl is practically her dream lover.

She looked at Shen Baisu and said cheerfully, "You said you were going to give me a gift, could it be... a granddaughter?"

As they were talking, the old lady noticed the two sisters holding hands, and her expression suddenly became complicated.

It would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned giving the gift to her granddaughter, but once she did, the old lady started overthinking things.

Could it be that Su Su and this girl...

Shen Baisu immediately understood her gaze, and after a moment of silence, she explained, "Grandma, this is my senior sister. I became her apprentice when I was learning martial arts. Her name is Su Qing."

"Senior sister, this is my grandma."

Su Qing immediately greeted the old lady, "Hello, Grandma."

Although this old lady seemed to be almost two hundred years younger than her, she was her junior's grandmother, so it seemed fine for her to call her "grandma"... right?

Unaware of Su Qing's inner thoughts, the old lady nodded happily at Su Qing, "Okay, okay, don't stand there, sit down."

"By the way, Su Su, you mentioned you became an apprentice? When did that happen, and what did you learn?"

As the daughter of the Shen family, Shen Baisu learned a lot from a young age, but all of it was taught by teachers who came to her home. She never mentioned having any experience of apprenticing under a master.

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu casually replied, "Cultivating immortality? I started it a long time ago, but I didn't tell you." The old lady nodded happily and said, "I see. Our Susu is so eager to learn, even cultivating... um? What did you just say you were cultivating?"

Halfway through her sentence, the old lady finally realized something was wrong. Her smile froze, and she looked at Shen Baisu in astonishment.

This child has been fooled, hasn't he?

The old lady's expression changed from surprise to worry. Shen Baisu realized that she shouldn't have been so direct, so she changed her words, "Well, actually I've learned some martial arts to strengthen my body. I'll teach Grandma sometime."

When the old lady heard that it was for health and fitness, she was relieved. She smiled and waved her hand, "Grandma is too old to practice martial arts. Su Su can practice."

Shen Baisu: "I won't teach you martial arts, but I do have some methods for cultivating your mind and body."

The old lady nodded and said, "Okay, okay, Grandma will listen to you."

Upon seeing this, Shen Baisu smiled happily.

"What is this? What unique fruit!" At this moment, the old lady finally noticed the fruit basket that Shen Baisu was carrying.

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu also remembered the fruit basket. She placed the fruit basket on the table, then picked up a fruit and handed it to the old lady. "This is what I wanted to give you. It's a new variety of fruit cultivated by a senior student at our school. It's delicious and has high nutritional and medicinal value."

The old lady is getting on in years and has bad teeth. When she eats fruit, she only eats the easy-to-chew varieties.

The fruit in front of her looked tough to eat; in the past, the old lady would never have eaten it.

But the old lady was very curious about this fruit she had never seen before, so she reached out and took it, saying, "I must try it."

Even if the fruit is hard, it shouldn't be a problem to take a bite or two to taste it.

Thinking this to herself, the old lady brought the fruit to her lips.

When her taste buds were awakened by the sweet flavor, the old lady knew that her teeth were going to suffer a bit today.

After tasting it, the old lady took another bite, then two more bites...

Finally, he ate the fruit clean.

The old lady ate the whole fruit with half-closed eyes, enjoying it immensely. After finishing, she didn't forget to wipe her mouth first.

"Delicious, delicious," the old lady said twice before turning to Shen Baisu, "What's this fruit called?"

"It's called the Red Beauty Fruit."

The old lady quietly took another red beauty fruit into her hand, examined it carefully, and then nodded, "Red beauty? It's a good name."

After she finished speaking, she silently brought the fruit to her mouth.

Her taste buds were awakened, and she couldn't resist for a moment. Anyway, whether she ate one or two, it was all the same, and her teeth were definitely fine.

Thinking this way, the old lady felt at ease. However, before she could even take a bite of the fruit, a familiar voice suddenly came to her ears, "Grandma, Ruoxi is here."

Shen Mingyu brought Du Ruoxi up.

The old lady paused as she was about to bite into the fruit, temporarily abandoning the idea of ​​taking another bite.

She glanced towards the door and saw Du Ruoxi and Shen Mingyu walking towards her with different expressions.

Shen Mingyu stared intently at the fruit basket on the table, his eyes practically glued to it. As for Du Ruoxi, she lowered her eyes, looking nervous and frightened.

The old lady turned her gaze to Du Ruoxi, looked her up and down, and then said regally, "Please sit down."

Shen Mingyu immediately found a seat very close to the fruit basket and sat down.

Du Ruoxi sat down opposite the old lady. She sat upright, looking restrained and uneasy. After sitting down, she forced herself to call out to the old lady in a low voice, "Grandma."

The old lady responded casually, "I heard that Su Su pushed you into the pool this morning?"
