Chapter 325: Chapter 325: Young Master Lin Falls Out of Favor
Little Jia You continued to shake his head: "No need to discuss with An Nan, you set it up for me, I’ll just tell An Nan."
This arrangement seemed perfectly natural to An Jiayou; since he was little, this was how they interacted—making his own decisions and only discussing with the other when he couldn’t handle things. However, this mode of interaction made Lin Mubai’s heart ache. In his view, a child could be mature, yet should also have their innocence, the right to be able to act spoiled or throw a little tantrum at times.
Yet, the little one in front of him had been stripped of this right too early and was left only with precociousness.
An Jiayou sensitively noticed the concern in his eyes and smiled lightly, saying nonchalantly, "It’s okay, I think it’s quite nice this way. Everyone has their own life, and I’m glad to be An Nan’s son."
Within his words, Lin Mubai also smiled with relief, and the two did not continue with the topic afterward.
Lin Mubai thought about how they had never gone out together, and proactively suggested: "Shall we take a trip in a few days?"
"Where to go?" Speaking of travel, he and An Nan had been to many places in the past, but it had been a long time since the last time; it really was nostalgic.
Lin Mubai thought about it and continued, "Let’s find someplace nearby, and the next time An Nan has a long vacation, we’ll go farther away."
"Sure, that’s fine, you go ahead and set it up."
During their conversation, the car had already arrived and stopped outside the Lin Family villa. The old man who was pruning the flowers in the garden heard the sound from the car and quickly put down his tools, joyfully coming to greet them.
Lin Mubai was just about to call him grandpa, but the words got stuck in his throat as his dear grandpa directly passed him by and stood in front of Little Jia You with delight and concern: "Little one, haven’t seen you for days; I’ve missed you to death. It’s perfect that you’re here today, let grandma make your favorite dishes."
Just like that, the big one and the little one passed Lin Mubai again and entered the villa, while Lin Mubai, directly ignored by his grandpa, had his mouth twitching: "What is this? What is this? Have I fallen out of favor?"
Helplessly shaking his head, he still followed them into the villa. Half an hour later, he realized he had completely fallen out of favor; the four family members acted as if they didn’t see him, all focusing on the little one, asking what he wanted to eat and drink. When he finally managed to get a tangerine the little one didn’t want, even his own mother glared at him fiercely.
"Mom, what the heck, isn’t this something the little one doesn’t want?" Could anyone be more pitiful? Holding onto something someone else didn’t eat and still getting disliked for it.
The other party gave him a glare, and said indifferently, "Little Jia You won’t eat it now, but who knows, he might want it later. If you eat his, what will he eat later?" Saying this, she didn’t forget to snatch the tangerine.
Lin Mubai slowly lowered his head, filled with inner lament: "Am I just like a bonus with phone top-up?"
Meanwhile, An Nan excitedly left home: "Wow, awesome, I’m finally out of this misery."
Who knew, upon arriving at the agreed location with Shen Mengqi, her expression turned awkward: "I thought I had just left one misery, but who knew I was jumping into another big pit—and this pit was one I dug myself."
