Chapter 214: Chapter 129: The Encounter Six Years Ago, the Little Boy Who Delivered the Cake. (Two in One!)_2

```"Drinking a little is no problem."

The old man chuckled, the doctor had explained that drinking a bit of alcohol could stimulate the nerves and be somewhat beneficial.

Moreover, there weren't many chances to drink with his granddaughter. Soon, her leg might heal, and she could run off somewhere far...

He poured a little into a small cup for Nuannuan.

"Grandpa, I want to try it too."

An Nannan looked on, her little greedy bug and curiosity getting the better of her.

The old man chuckled and poured her a tiny sip into a Maotai cup, enough to dip with chopsticks to taste the flavor.

"Come on, young man, let's have one."

The old man loved his drink.

He raised his bowl, An Nuannuan lifted her small cup, and An Nannan dipped her chopsticks and lifted them to join in.

After clinking glasses, they all took a big gulp.

The liquor was mellow and fragrant, not burning on the way down, but more like a warm flow slowly entering the stomach.

"Good liquor."

Xu Musen nodded in agreement.

But An Nuannuan's little face was scrunched up from the spice, and Nannan even more so, letting out a yelp as if she had touched a hot iron.

The sisters quickly grabbed their milk tea and took a big sip, which made things slightly better.

"So hard to drink... You guys are weird, milk tea is much better." Nannan, still shaken, probably wouldn't be curious about alcohol for a long time.

Xu Musen and the old man couldn't help but chuckle.

Alcohol was indeed a great way to warm up the atmosphere; the dining table felt even more harmonious after this little interlude.

"Young man, looking at your build, did you learn any martial arts when you were young?"

"I did take some taekwondo lessons before."

"That's just for show, not really useful. Although we live in a civilized society, as a man, it's essential to have some fighting skills. It's not about needing them, it's about being caught without them. How else will you protect your own in the future? In a while, I'll teach you a few moves..."

The old man had drunk a few sips and looked at Xu Musen as though he had found a worthy successor for his legacy.

The grandmother watched silently.

The meal was almost finished.

Xiao Xiang came back and said, "The bathwater is ready. Nuannuan, you go take a bath first. I've asked the doctor to come over in the afternoon for another acupuncture session."

An Nuannuan first looked at Xu Musen.

"I'm fine, I'll stay and chat with Grandpa and Grandma. You go ahead."

Xu Musen nodded.

"Mm-hmm."

An Nuannuan then obediently nodded.

"Sister, I'll join you!"

An Nannan followed, bouncing away.

Only the grandparents and Xu Musen remained.

The grandmother adjusted her glasses: "Nuannuan's recovery has been very good lately."

Xu Musen acknowledged: "Nuannuan has been working hard in training; it's all thanks to persistence." Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

But the grandmother raised her eyes, her gaze heavy with meaning, "I heard from Xiao Xiang that you occasionally help Nuannuan with massages, right?"

Xu Musen, who had just taken a sip of his drink, almost choked as the grandmother openly questioned him.

He couldn't help turning a bit red-faced.

On the side, the always genial old man who even considered taking Xu Musen as his disciple was also taken aback by her words, his eyes widening, and the hands holding his bowl starting to show veins?

What?

He had not yet even started a romance with Nuannuan and he dared to get handsy?

The old man felt it was time to bring out the third-ranked weapon of the An Family arsenal: the An Family Overlord Spear!

Faced with an indefinable pressure, Xu Musen remained calm and set down his drink.

"Yes, I've helped Nuannuan massage her leg, but only below the calf."

Well, the foot was below the calf too, so he wasn't lying.

Xu Musen stated this outright: "Nuannuan couldn't reach her calf, so I helped her massage it. There was nothing indecent about it."

The old man's expression eased a bit.

The grandmother also nodded, surprised that he admitted it so straightforwardly. As long as it involved the calf, it was not a big deal.

Otherwise, she would not have asked like this.

"Don't be nervous, we were just asking. It's just that Nuannuan has never been this close to anyone before, and the only boy she has ever seen is you."

The grandmother smiled in response, looking at Xu Musen's expression, she continued, "Young man, what are your plans for your future life?"

Listening to her, Xu Musen replied, "I think plans often can't keep up with changes. For now, I just want to earn more money so that I and those around me can have a good life. That's enough for me."

Listening to his watertight response, the grandmother did not press any further.

After all, Nuannuan wasn't the kind of person to be taken advantage of easily.

If it happened, it was probably deliberate.

They were only just starting university; everything was still early.

In the end, as long as they could make sure their granddaughter was not at a disadvantage, that's all that mattered, although they weren't sure if they could really keep an eye on her...

...

At this moment, in the backyard bathhouse, there was an artificial hot spring dug into the ground.

An Nuannuan was soaking in the hot spring while An Nannan, with a swimming ring, frolicked around in the water.

Her little head bumped into something soft and she stopped.

Looking up, she saw her sister holding her little head.

Nannan let go of the swimming ring and settled into her sister's embrace with a giggly smile, reminiscent of the times she lay in her mother's arms as a child.

However, she thought, if her sister were to get married someday, she wouldn't be able to take baths together with her often. Stay connected with M-V-L

"Sister, what's the relationship between you and that guy right now?"

An Nannan was a little girl who spent a lot of time surfing the internet.

Even though she didn't understand many things, she was quite shrewd.

An Nuannuan, who had drunk a cup of liquor and was now soaking in the hot spring, felt her own temperature rise.

With her cheeks flushed, she extended a hand and tenderly pinched her sister's twin buns: "Friends..."
