Chapter 29 - Getting to the Bottom of This

While Xie Jingyu was busy bragging about his relationship, Yu Huiyin and Old Man Han were shopping, closely followed by Assistant Song.

The first store they visited was a clothing store for men. Here Yu Huiyin bought five sets of clothes for Old Man Han and five sets of clothes for Yu Feihong.

The clothes were of the most common brands that many people used, however since she bought so much, the money spent would also be much more than usual.

Old Man Han observed Yu Huiyin's expression as she paid with her card, examining whether or not she was uncomfortable about spending this amount of money on clothes.

Usually, she would be very hesitant to buy clothes. However, today, her facial expression was calm even though she spent more than three thousand yuan!

Yu Huiyin completely forgot about her usual lack of wanting to spend money, and casually swiped her card.

Old Man Han was wearing a new set of clothes as they continued their shopping spree while Assistant Song went to the car with the first portion of bags.

The rest of the day, Yu Huiyin dragged Old Man Han through various stores. They bought bed linen, towels, soaps, and everything else that was needed daily to have a decent life.

Finally, they had bought all the things they needed for the flat, but Yu Huiyin was still not done. She took her grandfather to a smartphone store where she purchased two smartphones, one for Old Man Han and one for Yu Feihong.

The more money that Yu Huiyin spent, the more taciturn Old Man Han became, but he still asked nothing, only the grave light in his eyes intensified.

He kept track of every yuan spent, but she was still spending money, she had spent a fortune already, it was clear that she had been paid a lot. Even as an assistant, she should not have money to use like this.

Yu Huiyin did not think too much about it. She had the money to spend now, so she was going to spend it well on her loved ones.

Assistant Song, who was standing behind them, noticed the unhappiness in Old Man Han's eyes, but he was not sure what he should say to Yu Huiyin without being too obvious.

And now it was also too late. Yu Huiyin had bought all the things she needed. When she turned around and looked at her grandfather, his face had completely changed, looking amiably and friendly. His deep thoughts were not shown on his face.

Only Assistant Song had noticed his troubled and sharp expression earlier, but he was unsure if he should tell Yu Huiyin about it, or let her experience it herself later. He did, however, contact Xie Jingyu and tell him about it.

"Okay we have everything now, let us go and wait for Feihong to finish his classes and then take him home with us to our new flat."

Old Man Han nodded his head. "You have been spending a lot of money just now, are you sure this is okay?"

"It's fine," Yu Huiyin waved her hand. "I have worked extra hard and been paid double this month," she said with a grin on her face, but the words just made Old Man Han sink into deep thought.

They returned to the car and drove towards Yu Feihong's high school. Here they parked outside, and Yu Huiyin exited the car, ready to wait for her little brother, while leaving Old Man Han in the car with Assistant Song.

"So, lad, tell me, what does she actually work as?" Old Man Han asked with a gentle voice.

"She is an assistant for my boss," Assistant Song answered, while feeling quite uncomfortable.

"So, apart from being his assistant, does she also warm his bed?" This was what made Old Man Han most worried. He did not want to see his granddaughter become a mistress, or a toy for the rich.

"No, our boss has fallen for her, but he will never force her to do anything she does not want to do."

"Not force her?"

"No, that is certain. He is chasing her, but she is not so easy to catch, so he is trying to make her fall for him by giving her a stable work environment. He is even giving her a generous salary, but I do not think she is aware of his feelings for her just yet."

Assistant Song was no less shrewd than Old Man Han. He knew that the old man would have a bad impression of his boss if he did not put a good word in for him, so he instantly began praising him.

Old Man Han was also instantly pacified. "So she is not a mistress, and she has not been doing any unspeakable things for this job?"

"No, not at all. She saved our boss, and he fell for her at first sight. The job has been prepared for her so that she can be close to him, and he can have a chance to impress her. But he will never pressure her, nor push her into doing something that she is uncomfortable with."

Assistant Song was not feeling bad about saying this. Although she had been forced into marriage, she had eventually accepted it. Not to mention, Xie Jingyu would really not force her into doing something she did not want to.

The more Assistant Song explained, the calmer Old Man Han became, and eventually, he was pleased with it. So it was just a rich man chasing his granddaughter? That was completely fine, as long as she was not doing something unacceptable.
