CHAPTER 347: CHAPTER 347: OLD SIR JIN: GO, GO, GO

Old Sir Jin waited anxiously, finally seeing Tuanzi off.

Just as she was about to leave, Tuanzi suddenly stopped, turned around, and clutched the doorframe with her tiny paws, her bright eyes staring at the people inside the room.

Old Sir Jin became tense; could this girl be having second thoughts?

"Miaomiao still thinks..."

Tuanzi dragged her words out as long as possible.

The longer she dragged it out, the higher Old Sir Jin’s heart jumped.

The crucial thing was that this little girl kept glancing at him, and it didn’t look like she had any good intentions.

"Uncle, your food is really delicious~"

After appreciating Old Sir Jin’s nervousness enough, Tuanzi finally said this truth.

Being stared at by those animal-like eyes, Jin Jing’s heart was almost melted, and he casually said, "If you’d like, why don’t you stay, since you and Chunting will eventually..."

"Cough, cough, cough!" Someone suddenly started coughing harshly.

Jin Jing had no choice but to show concern for Old Sir Jin’s health.

From a perspective Jin Jing couldn’t see, Old Sir Jin was waving his hands frantically.

Tuanzi pouted, if you tell me to leave, I’ll just stay; if you want me to stay, then I’ll leave.

Following this principle, Tuanzi lingered at the door for quite some time.

Old Sir Jin finally realized that this little girl just wanted to disagree with him.

He simply spoke in a muffled tone, "Your uncle is right, since you’re going to be on the show with Chunting, stay for a few more days."

Saying this in a rather unenthusiastic manner.

Tuanzi’s eyes lit up, "Wow, so Grandpa, you want Miaomiao to stay too?"

Old Sir Jin took a deep breath, reluctantly saying, "Yes, I do."

So hurry and disagree, just leave already!

But Tuanzi happily ran back inside, "Okay, since you want Miaomiao to stay, Miaomiao will stay then."

She turned to Gu Cheng, waving, "Big brother, you go back first. Miaomiao here is well-fed, well-accommodated, and has a grandpa who misses Miaomiao, so I’ll be very happy~"

Old Sir Jin: I’m not happy!

This little girl, why doesn’t she play by the rules?

Hesitating and lingering, only the system’s reminder that she’d miss her flight finally persuaded Tuanzi to stop teasing Old Sir Jin. She walked out with her hands behind her back, suddenly pausing.

Old Sir Jin: "!" What’s she up to now?

Tuanzi smiled, "I recorded what you just said, okay?"

"!"

"Hahaha," Tuanzi shook her little head proudly, "next time you say you don’t like Miaomiao, I’ll play the recording. You’re just being stubborn, but deep down you really welcome and like Miaomiao."

Old Sir Jin was so angry he leaned back.

How could this little girl be so shameless?

In all his years, he had never met anyone like this.

He couldn’t hit or scold her, and he had to take it!

After seeing Tuanzi off, he sat on the sofa trying to cool down for a long time before he finally did.

In the waiting room, Gu Cheng asked her, "Do you really think he likes you, or are you just teasing him?"

"Of course I’m just teasing him."

Tuanzi rubbed her face, "Miaomiao can still tell who likes Miaomiao."

Moreover, she never intended to use herself as a means to ease the tension between Old Sir Jin and their family.

The tension between the families originated from her parents and Old Sir Jin. How to resolve it would certainly be up to her mom and dad.

If they return and want to mend relations, then she would help. If her mom remained very upset, she’d definitely be on her mom’s side.

Nevertheless, this didn’t stop her from seizing chances to annoy Old Sir Jin now.

"Actually, Miaomiao is playing a long game."

Tuanzi touched her chin, feigning depth.

Gu Cheng glanced at her, seeing her round face and big eyes, joy overflowing from her expressions, not a trace of profundity, but certainly some playfulness and cuteness.

But he cooperatively asked, humbly seeking advice, "So what moves are you making?"

Tuanzi stroked the imaginary beard.

"Look, he practices Tai Chi Boxing in the morning, reads during the day, plays chess in the evening. He’ll be too exhausted, need sleep, and won’t have the energy to call Chunting anymore. Naturally, he can’t scold him."

Gu Cheng nodded, following up with questions, "But if he doesn’t last a few days, then isn’t your method useless?"

"Not at all, not at all," Tuanzi continued pretending, stroking her imaginary beard, "Miaomiao already agreed with uncle, he will keep an eye on grandpa. If grandpa doesn’t follow through, he’ll complain to Miaomiao, and Miaomiao will ruthlessly tease grandpa on the phone."

She had figured out that Old Sir Jin cared a lot about face and had a strong competitive spirit. She wanted to leverage this, give him things to do. When he’s busy, he won’t have time to watch over his children and grandchildren, right?

Tuanzi was smug about her clever idea.

"And, I specially recorded it before. No matter how the argument goes over the phone, with that recording, Miaomiao is the greatest winner!"

If she’s losing an argument or doesn’t want to argue anymore, she simply plays the recording, and Old Sir Jin would definitely hang up out of sheer embarrassment, hahaha!

Tuanzi placed her hands on her hips and would’ve laughed maniacally if it wasn’t for the busy airport.

Gu Cheng couldn’t help it; he pinched her cheeks.

"You’ve got so many ideas."

Tuanzi grumbled, "Just you wait, this plan will absolutely work, Miaomiao is the smartest!"

Later, during the third live episode of "Mountain Patrol Journey," one evening, Tuanzi received a message from her uncle saying Old Sir Jin barely stuck with playing chess, but he was reluctant to practice Tai Chi Boxing in the morning.

First, his limbs were stiff, and he wasn’t used to being watched by everyone; second, those grandpas became Tuanzi fans and would mention Tuanzi during Tai Chi Boxing, even comparing Tuanzi to Old Sir Jin.

They often said things like this.

"Aren’t you Miaomiao’s grandpa? How come she’s so good at Tai Chi Boxing, but you can’t catch on?"

"Oh, how unfortunate you’re just Miaomiao’s grandpa."

Old Sir Jin couldn’t stand it anymore.

Tuanzi quickly called Old Sir Jin and mercilessly teased him, saying that if it continues, after the show’s live episode, she’ll go to North City to mock him face to face.

The next day, her uncle messaged that Old Sir Jin resumed learning Tai Chi Boxing and even lowered his pride, pestering the leader for more lessons.

Old Sir Jin was indeed intimidated by Tuanzi, but he wasn’t afraid of his own grandson, seizing a chance, he called Jin Chunting again.

The first time he called, Jin Chunting wasn’t as proficient in retorting until Tuanzi, who happened to pass by, took over the phone and unleashed a rapid rebuttal, proceeding to play the recording, angering Old Sir Jin to hang up.

The second call was different; Jin Chunting had composed his words well, seriously asking, "Grandpa, do you miss Miaomiao, but are too shy to contact her, so you’re calling me instead? Should I find her and give her the phone?"

Old Sir Jin: "..."

Angrily hung up! And never called again!
