Chapter 271 - Stay for Dinner?
As soon as he heard this, he felt as though he was suffocating!
He wanted to raise a dolphin as a pet back then.
Zuo Yi, should we raise a pet?
What should we raise together? He asked as he held her in his arms.
What do you like? She asked him.
Dolphins.
It felt as though Shen Ruoxi’s crisp voice was speaking into his ear just yesterday but it had already been a few decades.
Zuo Yi closed his eyes in pain, and he really felt that there was a dagger in his chest at this time!
Zuo Weiyi was stunned when she realized that there was something wrong.
“Grandpa Zuo, what is wrong?”
Was this just her illusion? Why did she feel as though Grandpa Zuo seemed to be in a lot of pain after hearing about her grandmother?
However, after opening his eyes, Zuo Yi had a calm expression on his face.
He looked at her before he smiled and say, “It’s nothing. I was just thinking of the past.”
Zuo Weiyi pursed her lips tightly together when she saw the calm expression on his face.
Zuo Weiyi turned her head and glanced out at the window. She realized that the sky was already getting darker.
“Grandpa Zuo, it is already late. I should go home now.”
Zuo Weiyi suddenly said as she stood up and got ready to leave.
Zuo Yi also stood up with reluctance in her eyes when he saw her getting up so suddenly.
“Why don’t you stay and have dinner with me?”
Zuo Weiyi was completely caught off guard.
Stay for dinner?
Even though she felt that Grandpa Zuo was really kind, was it not too much for her to stay for dinner for no reason at all?
As she thought about it, Zuo Weiyi decided to turn down his invitation.
“No, it’s okay. I will go back home for dinner.”
Zuo Weiyi smiled as she picked up her backpack to get ready to leave.
Zuo Yi’s eyes were filled with reluctance.
After so many decades, he had finally found the three of them. However, in the end, Zuo Weiyi was the only one left in this world.
Zuo Yi looked at her and felt that he would feel more relieved even if she stayed for just another minute.
“Is there anyone in your family waiting to have dinner with you at home?”
Zuo Weiyi turned around to face Zuo Yi at this time.
Shi Yuting probably would not be home for dinner tonight. As for Shi Nuannuan, if she had already returned to the villa, she would definitely have given her a call to ask her about her whereabouts since she was not at home. That could only mean that Shi Nuannuan was not home either.
As she thought about it, she looked at Zuo Yi before she smiled and said, “Well, not exactly…”
“Since there is no one waiting for you to have dinner, then please stay and have dinner with me. I just want to ask you some more questions about your grandmother.”
Zuo Weiyi was placed in an awkward position but when she saw the expectant look on Grandpa Zuo’s face, she could not bring herself to turn down his invitation again.
Therefore, she simply replied, “Will I cause any inconvenience to your family if I suddenly stayed for dinner?”
Zuo Yi smiled before he replied, “How can you cause any trouble to anyone when I am living on my own?”
Zuo Weiyi was surprised because she had not expected this at all.
After that, she turned her head to look around the three-story luxury villa. Aside from a few bodyguards and the butler, Zuo Weiyi had not seen anyone else in the house.
Was Grandpa Zuo really alone with no family at all?
Zuo Weiyi finally agreed to stay for dinner at Zuo Yi’s insistence.
Zuo Yi also brought her to look around the villa before dinner was ready.
“You have no children?”
After looking through a study room on the second floor, Zuo Weiyi could not help but ask Zuo Yi the question.
Judging from the villa, Grandpa Zuo was definitely a very wealthy man. So, why did he not have any children at all?
Were they involved in an accident or were they just away from home at this time?
As soon as he heard her question, the old man smiled before he replied to her question.
“I have always been alone.”
