Chapter 16

"Finally class ended!" Xiao Ying's class shouted and almost everyone immediately running out the class.

Xiao Ying just slowly packing his books with a smile while remembering when he went to find Yu Mo. But his smile slowly fading when he remembered He Chen.

"I am He Chen, MoMo's best in anything, you name it!'

He remembered how He Chen introduced himself.

Xiao Ying quickly shakes his head and ready to go home.

"Hey."

Xiao Ying lifts his head and sees Yu Mo is standing on the wall.

"Yu Mo Gege!" He said while smiling widely."Why are you here?"

"I thought that why don't I come home with you today to have dinner at home?"

"Just dinner?"

"Hm?" Yu Mo pats Xiao Ying's head."I don't know whether I can stay the night… My laptop is in apartment. I kinda have some works to do."

Don't be childish! Yu Mo Gege is busy!

"Let's worry about that later. It's 1pm and we should head home."

They start walking while talking, well, it's mostly Yu Mo who talks about school to Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying tries to focus on new information, but his brain just doesn't want to compromises. His mind can't stop thinking about Yu Mo and He Chen and how Yu Mo seems to busy day by day and how he misses talking with Yu Mo.

Well, not this kind of talking. But maybe, heart to heart talking or deep talk, or…

"Xiao Ying, did you hear me?"

"Ah, yes, Gege."

Yu Mo smiles."Silly. What are you thinking about? I'm asking you about lunch. Do you want to have lunch before go home or we have lunch at home?"

"It's up to Gege."

"Then, let's have lunch at the restaurant nearby before we go home."

Without Xiao Ying's realization, they already arrived at the school park, in front of Yu Mo's car. They enter the car and Yu Mo turns on the GPS to check the nearby restaurant. He decides to have lunch at Shangri-La Hotel.

"Do you mind?" Yu Mo asked."We can go other places that you want."

Xiao Ying shakes his head."Gege knows my background. I don't know much places."

Yu Mo pats Xiao Ying's head and drives out their school.

After having lunch, Yu Mo realizes that Xiao Ying's mind is somewhere else. So he decided go straight home and maybe he will stay 'til 8pm or so. They arrive at 3pm and Grandma is standing in front of the front door.

"Grandma." Yu Mo greeted and hugged her.

"You finally know to visit Grandma, hm?" Grandma teased him.

Yu Mo just smiles and guides Grandma to enter to living room, with Xiao Ying follows behind. His mind keeps reminding him about He Chen's words.

"I am He Chen, MoMo's best in anything, you name it!'

"Xiao Ying?"

Xiao Ying immediately shakes his head, looks at Grandma and Yu Mo who are looking at him worriedly.

"I… I think I need some rest." He said quicky."Sorry, Grandma and Yu Mo Gege."

And without waiting for their responses, he quickly dashes to the stairs.

Grandma looks back at Yu Mo.

"Xiao Mo, did something happen at school today?" Grandma asked."Xiao Ying looks down…"

Yu Mo just staring at Xiao Ying's back.

"He was fine at school and he got some friends. But, I will ask him later. Now… I just wanna know how are you, my lovely Grandma?"

Grandma and Yu Mo are sitting side by side and Grandma is holding Yu Mo's hand.

"I miss you, of couse, my grandson. Look at your dark circle and eye bags. You didn't have a good sleep, huh? I will scold your father when he comes home."

Yu Mo just smiles."I'm trying to sleep as much as I can, Grandma. It's not Father's fault. I need to learn company's projects and everything."

Grandma pats Yu Mo's head."Take care, my poor grandson. Don't force yourself too much. Do you stay tonight?"

Yu Mo shakes his head."I don't think so. I have some things to do tonight. But I'll stay for dinner, of course."

"Then, you can go take some nap, Xiao Mo. You know you can be lazy as much as you like in here."

Yu Mo smiles and kisses Grandma's cheek."That's why I love you, Grandma."
