301: Discussing Right and Wrong Behind One's Back

Yan Yi smiled, "Sure."

At the Jin residence,

Jin Yan was picking vegetables in the kitchen. Upon hearing a knock on the door, she poked her head out from the room and called, "Old man, someone's at the door, hurry up and open it!"

"Don't shout, I'm not deaf." Jin Shujing put down the newspaper in his hand, leaning on his cane as he went to open the door.

"Grandpa Jin, you're at home!" Yan Yi saw Grandpa Jin opening the door and handed the items to Zhou Ningkai, supporting him as they walked into the house. "I thought only Grandma Jin was home, so I came to see her, afraid she might feel lonely. I didn't expect you to be home."

"Yes, I'm at home. Rarely have a few leisurely days!" Jin Shujing said with a smile, "Among Yan's daughters, you're the most sensible! Even when you're free, you remember to come and see your Grandma Jin."

"I used to play with Jin Chen since I was little! Whenever I'm free, I'm always eating and drinking here. Now that I'm grown up, how can I forget you two!" Yan Yi's witty mouth made Grandpa Jin happy.

"That kid from the Zhou family." Jin Shujing pointed at Zhou Ningkai, who had been silent all along. "I heard you broke your bones, how are you now? Are you better?"

"Grandpa Jin." Zhou Ningkai appeared somewhat reserved. His different background from others made him feel that he was not quite the same, especially when facing the Jin family. "I'm fine now, you don't need to worry about me!"

"That's good. Why did you come today?"

"I haven't been here for a long time, just to see you and Jin Chen." Zhou Ningkai casually said two lies. After all, he rarely came here, and today he was just going to stay with Yan Yi for a while.

"Chen Chen is busy."

"Yes. I haven't seen him for a long time." Zhou Ningkai sighed, "Doctors are really not easy! It seems that people who are too outstanding bear more responsibilities and pressures than ordinary people."

"Who said no?" Yan Yi liked to hear people praise Jin Chen. When Zhou Ningkai praised him like this, she smiled sweetly at Zhou Ningkai.

Zhou Ningkai rarely saw Yan Yi smiling at him like this, and suddenly felt numb in his heart.

Jin Yan heard the movement in the living room and hurried out, holding a basin of leeks. She planned to make dumplings tonight. When she saw Yan Yi and Zhou Ningkai coming, she persuaded them to stay for dinner.

Both Yan and Zhou had their own thoughts, so they readily agreed.

"Oh, I forgot to say, these snacks were bought by Yan Yi to show respect to Grandpa Jin and Grandma Jin." Zhou Ningkai took the opportunity to put the gift on the table. "I came in a hurry and didn't buy anything else. I'm really sorry..."

"Oh, you've come, just come! Why buy gifts!" Jin Yan reminded a few more times, "You can't always buy things, how much money do you earn in a month? Look at what you bought, it's all expensive."

"It's okay." Yan Yi said proudly, "I've taken on a job. Tomorrow, I'm going to work as a translator for someone. Yes, I'm going to Tractor Distribution Factory! There are foreign guests coming to visit, and I'll be accompanying them throughout! They're paying three hundred a day! So, this is nothing!"

"Oh, that's really good. You're so capable." Jin Yan praised.

"You're going to our factory?" Zhou Ningkai, hearing this, became excited. "Just in time, I'll be accompanying them tomorrow to introduce our factory's production technology. We can work together!"
