As soon as Lan Yujuan entered the house, she smelled the aroma of food wafting from the kitchen.

Upon hearing the sound of the door lock, Mr. and Mrs. Lan got up one after the other and walked warmly toward the door.

"We've finally got you back! The food is just ready!"

Lan's mother bent down and opened the shoe cabinet, having specially prepared a pair of cute and well-fitting new slippers for Qin Shuyi; they looked like they had just been bought.

Although Mr. Lan was using a cane with one hand, he stepped forward without hesitation and took the schoolbag from Qin Shuyi.

"Wow, it smells delicious!"

Before Lan Yujuan could even speak, the little girl next to her sniffed and started praising her, her face full of a sincere and sweet smile.

"My grandparents' cooking is really good!"

"I haven't tasted it yet, but it smells delicious!"

Mother Lan was beaming from ear to ear, and Father Lan, standing beside her, also felt flattered, smiling broadly as he said:

"You two must be hungry after a long morning?"

"Grandpa and Grandma cooked the dishes for lunch today."

"If you like it, eat more later!"

Qin Shuyi nodded vigorously with a grin, "Okay!"

She has never met her maternal grandparents since she was born.

Now, following Xiaoman's lead, we call Lan's father and mother "grandpa" and "grandma."

Although Qin Shuyi still sounded a little awkward when she called out the name.

But each time she was addressed, she received an even warmer and more caring response, which warmed her heart.

This feeling is actually quite addictive.

After changing her shoes and entering the house, Lan Yujuan casually hung up her bag, and her father had already taken the bag and carried it into the study.

After greeting the two at the door, Lan's mother turned around and went into the kitchen to wash her hands and prepare to serve the food.

After hanging up her bag, Lan Yujuan turned around and was startled to see the little girl standing right behind her.

"We're already home, why are you still clinging to me?"

"Go wash your hands quickly, it's time for lunch!"

Qin Shuyi looked at her aunt in front of her, blushing slightly and acting shy, and whispered:

"Aunt, now I understand why my uncle always loves to go back to your parents' house with you."

"Your home is so lovely, and your grandparents are wonderful too. I love it so much!"

Lan Yujuan didn't have any other feelings, but every time she returned home, she felt relaxed and at ease, after all, she had been used to living there since she was a child.

She patted Qin Shuyi on the shoulder and smiled, "If you like coming, you can come often!"

"Come on, let me take you to wash your hands and get ready for dinner!"

After saying that, he took Qin Shuyi's hand and walked towards the restroom.

Qin Shuyi followed behind her, curiously observing every detail of the Lan family's residence, while whispering to each other:

"Auntie, you'd better keep your word this time. I'll have to come often from now on, and I can't go back on my word again."

Lan Yujuan smiled and said, "Of course I keep my word."

Upon entering the restroom, Lan Yujuan discovered that even new towels had been prepared on the towel rack.

It seems that her parents are thinking the same thing as her.

Lunch was very plentiful, with a variety of flavors and cooking methods, including sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy dishes.

"Good girl, don't be shy. Just make yourself at home and eat whatever you like," said Mother Lan with a smile as she served Qin Shuyi some food.

"You can tell Grandma what dishes you usually like to eat, and Grandma will make them for you later!"

Qin Shuyi looked at the plate of stir-fried chrysanthemum greens on the table and ate it with a beaming smile.

"This is delicious! I love chrysanthemum greens the most!"

"My dad is a good cook, but he only cooks what my mom and my uncle like, and he doesn't allow me to be picky about food."

"My mom doesn't like the smell of chrysanthemum greens, so we've never had chrysanthemum greens in our kitchen, and the school kitchen doesn't have them often either, hehe."

Although Qin Shuyi's face was full of nonchalant smiles when she said this, Lan Yujuan and her parents felt very uncomfortable after hearing it.

Mother Lan picked up the serving chopsticks and placed another piece of chrysanthemum greens on the little girl's plate. Her eyes shone with undisguised affection and tenderness as she softly said:

"If you want to eat any dishes in the future, just tell your aunt and grandparents. As long as it's a home-style dish, we'll usually make it."

"We'll make whatever Shuyi wants to eat. Come over anytime!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shuyi pursed her lips and then chuckled as she climbed the pole to her advantage.

"Grandma, can I come over for dinner every day for the next few days?"

"I did something wrong at school and don't want to go home. I want to stay with my aunt for a few days."

"But my uncle and aunt are both very busy with work during the day, so they probably don't have time to take care of me, so..."

Qin Shuyi's thoughts were simple: she didn't want to go home and face her parents every day.

She felt that her parents didn't understand her, and she didn't want to upset them.

Since that's the case, I might as well find myself a safe and quiet place and stay there quietly for a few days.

Once the seven days were up, she packed her things and went back to school.

After hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Lan immediately agreed.

Mr. Lan put down his chopsticks and turned to Lan Yujuan, saying:

"Yujuan, starting tomorrow, bring Shuyi home every day before you go to work."

"Shuyi can use the study if she wants to do her homework. If she wants to take a nap at noon, she can sleep in your room."

"You don't need to worry about meals. Just come home after get off work for dinner, and then pick up Shuyi and go home together."

Lan's mother chimed in with a smile, "In my opinion, this is a good idea!"

"Perfect timing. Your dad and I are just lazing around at home anyway. It'll be more lively with Shuyi coming over to play."

Lan Yujuan put down her chopsticks, picked up a tissue to wipe her mouth, and said with a faint smile:

"Shuyi, have you thought it through?"

"Your uncle and I will indeed be quite busy in the next few days."

"If you're willing to come here to study, I'll pick you up and drop you off every day."

Qin Shuyi nodded vigorously without hesitation and said excitedly:

"Okay, no problem!"

"I love my grandparents, I really love them!"

And so, that's how the matter was decided.

To prevent the little one from regretting it, Lan Yujuan immediately picked up her phone and told Chen Mo about it.

Chen Mo replied to his voice message almost instantly:

"Yes, I agree!"

"I'll call Chen Feifei right now and tell her."

"For the next six days, Qin Shuyi will not be allowed to go back; she will stay with us."

After lunch, Qin Shuyi patted her full stomach, leaned back on the solid wood sofa, and felt incredibly happy.

Although solid wood sofas are hard, they are not as comfortable as the genuine leather sofas at home.

But she felt relaxed and at ease here, even her soul felt free!

Half an hour later, Lan's mother brought out the cut fruit and said with a smile:

"Take a good rest and have some fruit."

"You don't have to rush to do your homework, you can take a nap first."

In order to make a good impression, Qin Shuyi immediately said boldly:

"Grandma, I don't want to take a nap at noon. I'll go straight to the study to do my homework!"

After saying that, he forked a piece of fruit, put it in his mouth, and went into the study while humming a little tune.

The moment Qin Shuyi pushed open the study door, she was completely stunned.

She stood at the door of the study for a while before subconsciously holding her breath, quietly walking into the room.

Almost everywhere you look, there are books that have been read, and the smells you get are almost all the scents of books and ink.

Qin Shuyi felt as if she were somewhat possessed.

Entering this study, I found myself unexpectedly drawn to studying...

In the living room, Lan Yujuan ate fruit while chatting on her phone.

Mr. Lan glanced at her furtively several times, and finally couldn't resist clearing his throat and asking in a low voice:

"Cough, cough!"

"Who are you chatting with?"

Lan Yujuan looked up at the right moment and smiled, "It's Teacher Kong."

"Teacher Kong has returned to the high school section and is now teaching the top-performing class in the second year of high school as a homeroom teacher."

"Last time, we bumped into each other at the school gate, and she said she wanted to visit you when she had some free time."

"She happens to have no classes this afternoon, so I thought I'd ask her if she's free to come over for tea today."
