Li Weixi stared at him blankly, as though she did not understand what he said.
Lin Yi smiled at the girl's adorable look. "Think about it carefully. I've given you a chance."
"Okay," Li Weixi replied softly with her head lowered. She was also thinking seriously in her head.
Soon, Grandpa Li came down from upstairs. His expression was the same as when they first met, kind and benevolent. He nodded at Li Weixi and Lin Jiu with a smile. "Are you bored at my place? Is there anything you want to do or play? I'll get them to prepare. "
"Grandpa, treat us to lunch then," Lin Jiu said coquettishly. "I heard that you have a new chef who cooks delicious food."
"Okay, then we'll have lunch at home today. We'll go to the yard to play in the afternoon."
"Grandpa's place is the best."
"You're all talk, but I don't see you coming."
They all laughed, except for Lin Yi, who was standing silently at the side with a straight face.
After lunch, Grandpa Li brought the three of them to the yard.
A tennis court had already been set up in the yard.
"I haven't exercised in a long time. Play with me," Master Lin said as he went to the side to pick a racket.
When he turned around, he asked Li Weixi, "Do you know how to play?"
"I've learned the basics, but I don't really know how to play." Li Weixi scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
Grandpa Li did not mind. "It's fine as long as you know a little. We're all playing casually as a family. There's no need to be so particular. You and Lin Yi will be in the same group. Ah-Jiu and I will play doubles."
"Okay." Lin Jiu also went to pick a convenient racket and stood with Grandpa Li.
The two of them looked at Li Weixi and Lin Yi with a smile. There was a hint of mockery in their eyes.
Li Weixi blushed and didn't dare to look at them. He walked to the side and casually picked up a lighter racket and tried to swing it.
With Lin Yi standing by her side, this relaxed match could be considered to have officially begun.
At first, Li Weixi was afraid that she would be a burden to Lin Yi. However, she realized that she didn't need to do anything. Lin Yi alone could beat the other side to the point that they couldn't fight back.
Soon, the outcome of the battle was decided.
The old man breathed heavily and scolded, "Little brat, don't you know how to give in to your grandfather?"
Lin Yi's expression didn't change. He said indifferently, "Grandpa taught me to be serious and focused in everything."
The old man glared at him. "I didn't teach you to deal with me."
"Grandpa, my brother has always been like this. It's not like you don't know." Lin Jiu smiled and took the racket from the old man's hand. He said gently, "Next time, I'll secretly tell my brother to go easy on you."
"You little girl." The old man shook his head and walked to the side to rest.
Seeing that Lin Yi wasn't even out of breath after playing for so long, his eyes were filled with envy.
It was good to be young.
He massaged his legs and watched Lin Yi do simple stretching exercises. A hint of pride flashed across his face.
At this moment, a servant walked to his side and said respectfully, "Old Master, Miss Chu is here. She's waiting in the living room."
The servants at home didn't know that Lin Yi was going to deal with her. The old man didn't have any other instructions and let her in as usual.
The old man frowned and seemed a little unhappy. "Let her go back. Tell her that I'm sick and I don't want to see anyone."
The servant looked troubled. "But Miss Chu found out from others that Master Lin Shao is back. She also knows that you're having fun here."
"When did the servants at home become so insensible? They tell outsiders everything," the old man said angrily. "Go and tell Uncle Liu to look through the CCTV footage. Chase out anyone who talks to Chu Mingshu!" Old Master Li roared.
The servant was frightened and hurriedly answered, "Yes." Such things had happened often in the past, but she had never seen the old man so angry. She had also never heard him call Chu Mingshu by her full name.
The servant vaguely guessed something. She braced herself and asked carefully, "What about Miss Chu?"
"Do as I say," the old man said coldly. "I'd like to see how she's going to make a fuss."
"Yes," the servant answered and hurriedly replied to Chu Mingshu.
Lin Yi and Li Weixi were on the other side and didn't hear the conversation, but Lin Jiu heard every word. Seeing that the old man was really angry, she hurriedly coaxed him. "Grandpa, don't be angry. I think she should know that this is what you want and won't disturb you."
"That's for the best. I'm just afraid that she's brainless and thinks she's something."
Lin Jiu didn't say anything else. She had said what needed to be said, but that stupid woman Chu Mingshu probably wouldn't use her brain.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, she heard a commotion not far away.
"Grandpa is clearly here. Why won't you let me see him? I just want to play with him. "
Chu Mingshu ran to Master Lin aggrievedly and said coquettishly, "Grandpa Lin, they're so mean. They won't let me see you. I haven't seen you for three days. I miss you so much."
The old man frowned and a look of disgust flashed across his eyes.
His expression was so similar to Lin Yi's that Chu Mingshu was a little scared.
At this moment, Lin Yi and Li Weixi also saw the person who suddenly ran over.
The two of them looked at each other and walked over together.
Chu Mingshu saw Lin Yi and her eyes lit up. She called out sweetly, "Cousin."
She didn't dare to look into Master Lin's eyes again. She was a little scared and hurriedly ran to Lin Yi's side. She looked at him pitifully and said, "Cousin, I didn't mean to say that yesterday. I was too angry, so I said that. Don't be angry, okay?"
Lin Yi-leng smiled. "What right do you have to be angry?"
Chu Mingshu was stunned. "What?"
"Don't pretend in front of me. Who here doesn't know that you're acting?"
Lin Yi's words made Chu Mingshu shiver. She looked at the old man carefully.
Grandpa Lin, who had always doted on her, looked at her coldly this time and didn't say anything.
She forced a smile. "Grandpa Lin, do you think so too? But I'm not pretending. Did you hear Li Weixi badmouthing me? She even threatened to tell on me to you yesterday. Don't believe her. "
"I know who to believe. I don't need you to remind me." Master Lin said calmly, "Besides, Li Weixi didn't say anything. She didn't even hint at anything. You, on the other hand, are always targeting her. Do you really think I don't know why?"
