“Tell Old Qin to let you home early- come back earlier today.” Xuemin said pleasantly.
“Come back? Did something happen?” Guan Xin was stunned- her grandfather really wasn’t aware of what had happened, he didn’t even know she was already coming home early today.
“A friend’s coming over tonight, he’s the remarkable young man I told you about!” Xuemin laughed. “I’ll introduce him to you! He’s around your age, the two of you should have common topics to talk about.”
“Oh……” Guan Xin lost interest upon hearing what this was about… Lin Yi’s shadow started forming in her mind again……
Xuemin only assumed that Guan Xin was feeling shy from her response. “It’s settled then! Have Aunt Liu buy some ingredients for you to cook tonight. Make sure to leave a good impression!”
Aunt Liu was the nanny of the Guan family, in charge of cooking and looking after Xuemin when needed.
