Chapter 879: I’ll Send You Back
However, she still smiled and said, “In that case, there’s nothing we can do about it. Enjoy your meal.”
After saying that, Manli turned around and walked towards the private room area.
She did not come here to eat by herself anyway. She had already made an appointment with a friend here.
Shi Nuannuan pouted her lips in dissatisfaction and continued eating.
However, would Manli tell her grandfather about Nuannuan having dinner with Xiangyi?
But Manli seemed to only know her brother and not her grandfather so she had nothing to worry about.
After dinner, the two of them went to watch a movie. By the time they came out, it was already 9:20 pm.
After returning to the apartment, Xiangyi did not go upstairs. Instead, he walked to the parking lot. “I’ll send you back.”
Although she really wanted him to send her back, she did drive there.
“I’ll drive myself…”
“I know, I’ll drive your car.” His voice was very gentle, and the way he looked at her was filled with endless love.
Shi Nuannuan immediately stared at him. “You’ll drive me back in my car?”
“Yes.”
“Then how will you come back later?”
“I’ll take a taxi.”
A taxi?
“But, Shi Mansion is very far from where you can get a taxi.”
“Then I’ll walk to the place where I can take a taxi.”
When he said that, Shi Nuannuan could not help but laugh. She nodded her head vigorously, extremely happy!
“Okay!”
When she reached home, it was already almost 10 pm.
The living room was quiet as Shi Nuannuan tiptoed upstairs. At this moment, there was a clatter and the living room suddenly became bright.
She stopped walking upstairs and turned her head to see that her grandfather was still sitting on the sofa.
“Grandpa, why are you…”
It was already so late. Why was he sitting on the sofa with the lights off?
Shi Le stood up and leaned on his walking stick with both hands, staring at his granddaughter who had just returned.
“Can you tell me why you came back so late?”
Shi Nuannuan instantly knew what reason to find to answer this question.
After stuttering for a long time, she said, “Uh, I… I just attended a friend gathering.”
Shi Le frowned. Another friend gathering?
“Nuannuan, can’t you think of a better excuse?”
“What? That’s the truth! Oh… I’m so tired, I’m going upstairs to sleep now!”
As she said that, she yawned again and headed straight upstairs.
Shi Le wanted to say more, but she had already disappeared up the stairs in an instant.
This child had been constantly running out recently, and it was really abnormal.
He couldn’t follow and investigate her because her granddaughter would definitely be very angry if she found out.
Suddenly, the image of Cheng Huan flashed through his mind.
The more he looked at the boy, the more he liked him, and it was only a matter of time before he became his grandson-in-law.
Well, that’s settled!

As there were done dealing with things here, Shi Yuting and Xiang Yi had flown to C Country.
To prevent Zuo Weiyi from worrying, Shi Yuting called her twice a day—after lunch and before she went to bed at night.
Zuo Weiyi could only be at ease when she heard his voice and confirmed that he was safe and sound.
It had been three days since Shi Yuting left. On the morning of the fourth day, a piece of news reached C Country.
Early in the morning, Shi Nuannuan had finished her breakfast and did not have anything to do. She turned on the television, which happened to be the international news channel.
When she heard the news, she was so shocked that her eyes were wide open. They almost fell out!
