Chapter 1013: Chapter 691: When the Wolf Looks Back
"Jun Jie! Come, come here to Fourth Granny!"
Su Xiaomeng stood up, waved to Yin Junjie, and didn’t even glance at Yin Shiqing. Everyone could see her attitude clearly.
The spikes on her back were already raised.
Yin Shiqing let go of Yin Junjie’s hand and told him,
"Go on, go to your Fourth Granny."
Yin Junjie didn’t think much and walked over to Su Xiaomeng’s side,
"Fourth Granny..."
Su Xiaomeng quickly asked for an extra seat beside her and let Yin Junjie sit down.
"Jun Jie, it looks like you’ve grown taller again."
Yin Junjie touched his head and smiled.
Su Xiaomeng held Yin Junjie’s hand and naturally rolled up his sleeve, saying,
"The sleeves are a bit long, roll them up so the soup doesn’t get on them."
She said this, but actually, Xiaomeng just wanted to see if Yin Junjie had suffered any more domestic violence recently. If there were any marks on him...
"Fourth Granny, I’m fine, don’t worry."
Who would’ve expected Su Xiaomeng’s little intention to be completely seen through by Yin Junjie’s cleverness.
Faced with Yin Junjie’s sunny face, Su Xiaomeng felt at ease.
She picked up a chicken leg and put it in Yin Junjie’s bowl,
"Eat more, if you gain a bit of weight now, you’ll surely grow taller during development!"
Yin Junjie quickly turned his head to look at her,
"Fourth Granny, is there scientific evidence for that?"
"Uh... although there’s no scientific evidence, my middle school classmates, those boys who were chubby in the first and second grades, shot up in height by the third grade!"
"Really?"
"Really!"
Seeing Yin Junjie still doubting, Su Xiaomeng put on a firm face.
It seemed to convince Yin Junjie about seventy to eighty percent.
Yin Shixiu, on the side, gave a somewhat helpless smile.
Su Xiaomeng glanced at him, "What?"
"Someone’s being ignored."
Yin Shixiu said softly, as it was obvious Su Xiaomeng was deliberately ignoring Yin Shiqing. So obvious!
It’s not that everyone present would look at Su Xiaomeng’s face.
But the child was beckoned over by Su Xiaomeng, as for the child’s grandfather...
Su Xiaomeng didn’t make a sound nor did she look at Yin Shiqing, just focused on eating, chatting intermittently with Yin Junjie.
"By the way, don’t you have classes today?"
Su Xiaomeng asked casually, but to her surprise, this offhand question hit a sore point.
Yin Junjie suddenly fell silent, and Su Xiaomeng, being sharp, put down her chopsticks and looked at Yin Junjie,
"What’s wrong?"
"..."
"Junjie’s been unwell recently, so his dad and I agreed to let him take a break from school for a while."
Su Xiaomeng didn’t pay attention to Yin Shiqing, yet he came over on his own, ordering the servants to add two more chairs and utensils.
Yin Shiqing helped his wife sit down and then sat down himself, with an experienced demeanor.
The couple sat beside Yin Shixiu, able to clearly hear Su Xiaomeng and Yin Junjie’s conversation.
When Su Xiaomeng asked about Yin Junjie’s studies, he immediately chimed in.
Su Xiaomeng wasn’t a fool, she thought it over a bit and could guess the situation.
"How long has he been out of school?"
No longer dwelling on the reason, Su Xiaomeng asked Yin Junjie a new question.
Yin Junjie calculated and said,
"Almost two months."
"Is your health better now?"
Su Xiaomeng asked again.
Yin Junjie nodded quickly and repeatedly, "Better, all better!"
Seeing the young boy’s eager expression, Su Xiaomeng felt a sincere ache in her heart.
Yin Junjie is such a talented, wonderful child...
If a child like this lost the opportunity for education... that would be such a pity.
"Brother Shiqing, since Junjie is better now, let him return to school quickly. Considering the time, isn’t it almost time for midterms?"
Su Xiaomeng asked again.
"Yes, Fourth Granny, the midterms are coming up soon."
"Well... jumping right into exams, won’t you fall behind?"
Su Xiaomeng showed some concern.
But Yin Junjie displayed a confident look,
"I’ve been self-studying at home, and when there’s something I don’t understand, I ask Grandma, and when Dad’s in a good mood, he also answers my questions."
While feeling sorry for Yin Junjie, Su Xiaomeng was also full of admiration and praise.
"Head back to school tomorrow, let’s not be so delicate, skipping school and taking leaves just because of a little discomfort, right?"
Yin Junjie continued to nod enthusiastically at Su Xiaomeng’s words.
"Brother Shiqing, don’t you think that’s right?"
