Chapter 59: Just One Kiss
Grandpa’s dishes were ready very soon. Tiantian picked up the chopsticks eagerly and tasted the dishes. Wow! They were so yummy!
“Why isn’t there anyone around when the food is so tasty?” Ning Tiantian asked, with her mouth full.
Pointing at the sign hanging on the window, Li Yanmo said, “The sign says ‘closed’”.
“That’s so kind of you, Grandpa. You closed shop for us!” Tiantian was really moved. “So I’ve decided that I’ve gotta eat more!”
So?
How was eating related to the place being closed?
Li Yanmo had to hand it to her.
Grandpa Li’s face was flushed and his eyes glazed, from the wine he had been imbibing. “Then eat more, Tiantian. If it isn’t enough, Grandpa will make more later.”
“Mm!”
Ning Tiantian nodded furiously.
“How’s your grandpa been? Is he well?” The alcohol had loosened Grandpa Li’s inhibitions and made him chatty.
“My grandpa is in good health,” replied Tiantian, as she looked up with rice stuck to the corner of her mouth. “Grandpa Li, you’re acquainted with my grandpa?”
This was the first time she had heard Grandpa Li bring him up.
“We are more than just mere acquaintances…” sighed Grandpa Li. “Back then, I was a soldier under your grandpa. Had I not been pressured by my family, I wouldn’t have retired from the army. Let’s not talk about the past anymore. If he realizes that his granddaughter has been snatched by my grandson, he’d be mad!”
At the thought of that, Grandpa Li threw back his head and laughed heartily.
Ning Tiantian chomped down on a drumstick, as she looked at this old man in slight bewilderment.
After that, Ning Tiantian stole a few sips of the wine. Just a few sips of the wine were enough to make her face as red as a monkey’s butt. She was starting to sway.
“Why are there three of you, Inky?”
Tiantian shook her head but was still greeted by the sight of three Li Yanmos.
“I won’t be able to kiss three Inkys!” Ning Tiantian staggered toward him, her lips puckered in anticipation of kissing him.
Li Yanmo held her by her shoulders firmly. “Stop acting like a crazy drunk.”
“Just one kiss!” Tiantian struggled in his arms, like a duck flapping its wings in the water.
“Rascal, quickly carry Tiantian into the room,” Grandpa Li’s eyes twinkled conspiratorially, like a sly old fox.
“Make sure you continue kissing in the room…”
Li Yanmo, who was carrying Ning Tiantian, almost tripped when he heard his grandpa. Was this man really his grandpa?
Fortunately, by the time they arrived at the room, Tiantian was already sound asleep. Just when he thought he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, Tiantian suddenly sat up in a stupor and got on top of him. “I haven’t kissed you!”
She planted a loud, wet kiss on him, drooling all over his face in the process.
“Ning Tiantian!” Li Yanmo roared at her angrily. This girl really was not the least bit shy.
“You’re noisy, Inky…” said Tiantian, before kicking him in his face.
Li Yanmo suppressed his anger, his handsome visage marred by displeasure.
First, she kissed him, then she gave him a kick in the face. What did she take him for?
But this time around, Ning Tiantian really was sound asleep and had no idea how mad he was.
When she woke up the following morning to Li Yanmo’s grumpy demeanor, she couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong, Inky?”
“Did you forget what you had done last night?” Li Yanmo asked through gritted teeth.
