A Billion Dollar Exchange

298 Dinner

''Grandpa… grandma…''

Liu Wei greeted as he approached them. Grandma, who was speaking to Grandpa suddenly turned to look at the direction of the voice and a smile spread across her lips;

''Oh my goodness, Wei Wei! My boy is so grown!! '' Grandma exclaimed as she rushed towards him and enveloped him in a warm embrace, not letting him go.

They hadn't changed much from the last time he saw them. Just a few wrinkles appearing here and there;

''Son, how are you? You're all grown! ''

Grandpa said with a smile as he watched his wife hug her grandson like he was her oxygen.

They were much alike, his father and grandfather; there wasn't much difference in their features even in character, except that his father was a bit taller.

''I'm fine grandpa, have you been well? ''

He asked smiling a bit;

''Oh yes we've been well. And you! You didn't even call after so many years! ''

His grandma answered in her husband's place, a little frown on her forehead.

''Grandma, I'm so sorry, but you're here now, right? ''

Liu Wei apologized as he hugged his grandma for the second time.

Even if she was angry before, seeing him at that moment, all her anger washed away.

''Alright, alright, you are forgiven. Where is your father, that son of mine, he didn't come? I personally requested that the both of you come pick us up! ''

Grandma complained as she looked around for her dear son.

''Grandma, he must be busy that's why he couldn't make it. You'll see him soon, if we start going now. ''

Liu Wei said, and grandma held onto his arm tenderly as they strolled to the parking lot. Grandma couldn't stop asking questions;

She asked of virtually about everything about him;

''Yes, yes, that reminds me, who is your girlfriend now\? I'm sure with this handsome face of yours; so many women would be fanning over you. Tell me, who is she? Is she pretty? ''

At that question, Liu Wei's cheeks flushed but he realized that he couldn't give Liling away even though his grandma was asking so innocently.

He didn't respond but Grandma caught his light blush;

''See that! I knew there was someone! When is she coming around? I want to see her?''

Liu Wei thanked his stars that they had reached his car; he immediately pulled open the back seat for them;

''Grandma, aren't you tired from the trip? Let's go now, you should rest. ''

She had always been this clingy, so he wasn't surprised at her questions.

''You don't want to tell me, uh? Fine, I'll ask your father when we get home. ''

Liu Wei's grip on the steering tightened but he couldn't say a word. He just kept his gaze on the road but his thoughts were in a mess.

Everyone in the ancient home knew of their arrival, thus everywhere was redecorated beautifully to welcome them back home.

Liu Wei held open the car door for them to step out, and a smile plastered on grandma's face as she looked around everywhere.

''Oh my, I've missed this place! ''

She exclaimed as she stepped inside, grandpa following suit.

The workers were all lined up outside, their heads bowed a little as they welcomed them home. Grandma ignored them and walked briskly into the house, searching for her son.

''Son? Where are you? ''

She cried excitedly as she walked into the house. ''

''The Chairman stepped out for a minute, he'll soon be home. ''

One of the maids explained to her when she saw her asking around for her son. ''

''Oh my! To think that he isn't even here to welcome us! This son of mine! Wei Wei, thank you for not being like your father, he's so uncaring! . ''

She exclaimed as she walked up the stairs to her room to take a shower. Grandpa who had just stepped inside; followed behind;

''Liu Wei, I hear you have your own home now? ''

Grandpa said when he was halfway up the stairs. Liu Wei nodded with a slight smile.

''Mm... That is good. Wait behind for dinner then, you'll be sleeping over this night. ''

He instructed and turned around, continuing with his trip to his bedroom.

Liu Wei knew it was a command, so he didn't object. Besides, they had just returned, so it was not abnormal for him to stay the night, except that he had someone waiting for him at home, but he couldn't tell them that unless he would be digging his own pit.

As soon as his grandpa disappeared up the stairs Liu Wei stepped out to call Liling.

As though she was already with her phone, she picked it up as soon as it started ringing.

''Baby, where are you, it's past five? ''

Liu Wei could hear some sound and rushing water, his brows creased.

''What are you doing? ''

Liling smiled as she bit on her lower lip;

''Well, I'm making chicken pizza.''

She said shyly, a blush forming on her cheeks.

''Why? You could have ordered, do you want to hurt your hands? ''

He asked; pinching between his brows.

At that moment, he couldn't bring himself to tell her that he wasn't returning that night. She had entered the kitchen to prepare something for him, how was he going to tell her that?

Liling chuckled;

''I was feeling lazy, so I decided to try some recipe. I've not tasted it but it smells really nice. ''

She said washing her hands and wiping it with the kitchen towel, all the while supporting her phone with her shoulders.

Liu Wei clenched his jaws;

He didn't know what to do, if he told his grandparents that he didn't want to sleep over, it would lead it unwanted questions; there was no other way.
