Chapter 469: 474 Intense Gaze_1

Grandma Qin wasn’t the least bit perturbed by the new arrival, coolly flipping the beef on the grill.

Lin Xiangwan couldn’t help but admire Grandma’s calmness inwardly, not scared at all?

Indeed, only super rich people showed such self-control, their emotions never harming their equilibrium, never getting flustered.

Qin Muchuan found it all a bit dull, and complained, "Grandma, I’m seriously starting to suspect that you have eyes on the back of your head. How can you always tell when I’m coming from behind you?"

Grandma Qin chuckled. "So, now you know how formidable I am?"

"I’ve always known, but I’ve come to realise that you’re even more formidable, awe-inspiring!" Qin Muchuan said as he took the tongs from Grandma’s hand and started flipping the meat on the grill.

Lin Xiangwan also chimed in with some flattery, "Grandma, you’re so impressive. I better not pull any tricks in front of you, I’d be exposed in a jiffy!"

"Good that you know!" Grandma Qin said with an icy face.

Lin Xiangwan quickly added, "I mean, I’ve never been much for scheming anyway. I’m too straightforward, I wouldn’t know how!"

"Hmph..." Grandma chuckled coldly.

Watching Grandma mock and tease Lin Xiangwan, Qin Muchuan had no choice but to keep drawing the conversation back to Grandma to soften the blows, "Grandma, can you tell me when you realised I coming?"

Clearly pleased with her grandson’s attention, Grandma Qin’s mood switched instantly, and she broke into a smile. "Well... what’s there to ask? The moment your wife slipped away quietly, claiming she had to go to the restroom, I knew she was going to call you. This girl seems so simple-minded but she’s actually quite cunning!"

Lin Xiangwan raised her arms in surrender. "Grandma, you must be mistaken. I’m a simple girl, no cunning in me at all!"

Grandma Qin shot her a look. "Don’t fool me, you’re sharp as a tack. However, I can at least acknowledge your decent character. Despite being a bit of a trickster, there’s no malice in you, which is commendable!"

Lin Xiangwan quickly gave her a thumbs up, saying, "Grandma, you’re spot on. Absolutely, I’m full-on such a kind-hearted person. I’m fully aware of who’s good to me, and who’s trying to frame me. I’d definitely retaliate!"

Qin Muchuan was struck by a sudden sense of unease. Was Grandma complimenting Lin Xiangwan’s intelligence?

Wasn’t she someone who would easily be duped?

The... this did not seem to be good news for him at this point.

He silently sipped his tea.

Since the topic had shifted to her, Lin Xiangwan couldn’t resist asking. "Grandma, how did you figure out that I’m intelligent and good-hearted?"

Grandma Qin laughed, "What, you don’t know your own character? You still need to ask me?"

Lin Xiangwan shot her a shy smile, and said a bit embarrassingly, "I just want to hear Grandma praise me!"

Watching Lin Xiangwan’s curious expression, Qin Muchuan couldn’t help but pour more tea for Grandma. "Grandma, since this idiot wants to hear, why not indulge her?"

Grandma gave her grandson a glance before starting, "Your wife, she’s got a lot going on in her mind, but her gaze is clear. Just from her eyes, you can tell what tricks she’s turning. Like when you walked over, I didn’t even have to look back to know it was you. It’s all written in her eyes. They light up like she’s on fire when she sees you, all shiny and sparkly... she’s too embarrassed to hug you outright in my presence. Otherwise, she’d just jump into your arms!"

"Hehe, really?" Qin Muchuan responded with a gleeful smile, not forgetting to place the grilled meat into Grandma’s plate. "The meat’s done, Grandma. Enjoy!"

Lin Xiangwan’s brows knitted tightly, her embarrassment clear as she said, "Grandma, when did I ever react to him like I was on fire? I’ve been very calm!"

Grandma Qin teased, "Calm? You nearly burnt the meat just now. I’m starting to worry about my poor grandson, you might just get handsy!"

"Hehe..." Qin Muchuan let out a low chuckle.

"Oh god! I’m being accused of falsehoods no matter how much I protest!" Lin Xiangwan said with an exasperated look.

Grandma Qin wasn’t swayed by her self-pity and took a hearty bite of the grilled meat. "This is delicious. No wonder you all love it!"

"Grandma, try not to eat too much, it might cause inflammation!" Qin Muchuan advised. "It could be bad for your stomach!"

Barbecued meat like this was easily available, but he had been reluctant to bring Grandma due to potential digestive issues.

Grandma swiftly dismissed his concerns. "You don’t need to worry about these things. I’ve lived more than eighty years, how many more can I squeeze out by being cautious? Now I just want to enjoy whatever I fancy and leave no regrets!"

"Stop talking nonsense, you don’t look eighty at all. People would guess you to be in your sixties. You’re in excellent health, Grandma." Qin Muchuan wasn’t just trying to butter her up, he was stating the plain truth.

Grandma Qin was indeed doing very well for her age, not seeming like an elderly lady at all.

"Alright alright, I do want to live for a few more years. I would like to see Tongtong and Ranran settle down, and even hold their children!" Grandma Qin expressed, full of longing.

Qin Muchuan gently patted her back, "You definitely will!"

"You always know how to please me with sweet words!"

"How dare I, Grandma?"

After taking a sip of water, Grandma started speaking, "Truth be told, I’m contented with my life so far. Especially now that you have a barely decent wife. It may not be ideal, but there is no girl out there right now who is your match!"

Lin Xiangwan couldn’t help but pout silently, casting a glance at Qin Muchuan.

Noticing her, Qin Muchuan winked, signaling her not to take Grandma’s words too seriously.

Lin Xiangwan shot him another glare.

Ah, the one with the grandmother always gets the niceties. If she had a grandmother, she would definitely side with her.

’Despite your husband being slightly older, older men are more tender-hearted.’

Lin Xiangwan wondered, would her grandmother say something like this?

A faint twinge of bitterness ran through her heart, she had no grandmother. In fact, she didn’t even have parents!

Grandma Qin nudged her grandson, "Aren’t you supposed to attend to guests? Hurry back, I bet you snuck away under the pretense of going to the restroom, didn’t you?"

Qin Muchuan truly enjoyed spending time with both Grandma and his wife, and had no desire to leave at all!
