Chapter 143: An encounter between Liam and his grandfather over Maureen Chapter 143: An encounter between Liam and his grandfather over Maureen “Threatening ?
Huh?
You think I’ll back down from your threat?
You insolent brat, I won’t rest until I’ve given you a good thrashing today!!” Saying so, the old man started looking around for sothing to hit soone with.
Maureen was stunned, he’s really going to hit soone?
She quickly tried to intervene, saying to Liam, “There’s really nothing wrong.” Liam’s eyes reddened with anger, “He had you kneeling for two hours and you say there’s nothing wrong?
Co with .” With that, Liam grabbed Maureen’s hand and turned to leave.
The scene was in total chaos.
In the background, the old man was throwing cups.
With her head spinning, Maureen was dragged out of the restaurant by Liam.
She managed to get out an explanation, “I swear there’s nothing wrong.
Your grandfather didn’t harm , I was just tired from sitting for so long and kneeled to rest.
You can check the surveillance.” Liam didn’t fully believe her, “I know my grandfather well, he’s always yelling or hitting , why wouldn’t he be an to you?
Why would he summon you if not to drive you away from ?” With a strange expression, Maureen said, “He asked about plastic surgery.
He seed to be calculating the genetic factors of our descendants.” Liam was taken aback, “……” After much persuasion, Liam finally believed that the old man had not done anything to Maureen.
He returned to the restaurant with a sullen face to apologize to his grandfather, but the old man had already cooled down and was on his way back on the expressway.
Maureen finally got a sense of what kind of person Liam’s grandfather was.
… This was not a man whose character could be summarized in a few words.
The two of them left the restaurant, walking down the street.
Maureen asked, “Earlier you said the old man would either hit you or scold you, why is that?” Liam realized his slip of the tongue, appearing slightly uneasy, and replied, “Nothing much really, it’s just that being a boy, being a bit playful, it was inevitable for my grandpa to discipline .” His feelings towards his grandpa were complicated.
His grandpa claid to treat him well, yet sotis his gaze was filled with gritted teeth, giving him a severe beating whenever he did sothing wrong.
But to say he disliked him?
It didn’t seem that way.
At the age of thirteen, his grandpa initially wanted to send him abroad.
In a certain way, it was also to protect him.
This way, he wouldn’t have to face the upcoming ss.
Moreover, he was sure that his grandpa never considered Demon and was always certain about his inheritance.
The reason why he only ntioned his Grandpa to Maureen was that after the age of thirteen, he grew up by the old man’s side and was most familiar with him.
Maureen asked again, “Has your leg fully recovered?” “Yes, it has fully recovered, didn’t it heal quite quickly?” Liam spread his arms, carrying Maureen and taking a few steps.
Passers-by looked over, and Maureen’s cheeks were burning.
She gave him a punch.
Only then did he set Maureen down and proudly said, “What is this called?
The dal of a hero, strong and muscular.” Maureen: “…That term really doesn’t suit you, thank you.” A pretty boy, but always thinking about the rough and tough actions of soldiers.
Is this what boys are like?
It had been a long ti since they last saw each other, and both of them could not control the spreading feeling of missing each other.
However, after being apart for a short ti, they both felt a little shy.
Liam held Maureen’s hand, leading her to where he parked his car, and opened the trunk to show her what he had brought her.
“There are a few clothes I brought from ho, new wool socks, and snow boots, and these are two knitted hats.
It’s been exceptionally cold recently, so take care of yourself, don’t let my little mask get a cold.” As he said this, Liam ripped off the tags violently and casually tossed them into the trunk, putting the knitted hats on Maureen’s head.
He held her head in both hands, pulled it down a bit, encapsulating her delicate ears as well.
It felt rather fitting.
He raised the corner of his mouth, “My prediction of your head circumference seems to be accurate.” Originally, Maureen felt her heart warming up, but couldn’t help feeling angry when she heard the word “head circumference”.
“What do you an, making fun of for having a big head?” Liam rubbed the top of Maureen’s head in response, “Hmm” he said confidently, “It is indeed not that small.” Maureen kicked him.
Liam pulled out even more stuff from the car, “I also brought a small hand fan ” He wasn’t able to continue, as his ears had already turned red instantly.
Maureen’s cheeks beca flushed.
“Liam, counting my days on the calendar, how do you know when my period cos?” Liam retorted, “Do you think I wanted to know?
Didn’t you soil the bedsheet and sneak up to wash it the next morning?!” Liam blushed furiously for a while.
Before he ca, he had reminded himself a hundred tis to be cool, aloof, handso, and swaggering, but he still couldn’t control himself.
Angrily, he said, “I didn’t intentionally spy on your privacy!” Maureen was about to die laughing.
“I initially thought you were a top student boyfriend, but now you give off such a daddy vibe.
But I also rember, shortly after we t, you gave two large quilts, and even underwear, which fell out in the library.
To those who didn’t know, they might have thought you were so per—” Before Maureen could finish, her mouth was gently covered by Liam’s palm.
Ti seed to stop.
Abruptly, Liam pulled her into his embrace.
Lowering his head, his chin rested on her neck, hugging her tightly.
One hand on the back of her head, as if he couldn’t wait to ld her into his bones.
His voice sounded a bit hoarse in the cold wind.
“Maureen Smith, I really miss you.” Liam’s down jacket was open, Maureen’s chest was against his black sweater, feeling the itchiness of the wool, and also feeling the wild pulsations of his youthful heart.
The warmth that ca washing over her.
The joy that ca washing over her .
It was dusk, bustling with traffic.
Maureen’s face was buried in Liam’s collarbone, unable to see any sunset, only his blood flowing along his veins towards his heart.
“ too.
Very, extrely, exceptionally.” “I miss you.” Maureen closed her eyes and hugged him back.
