243: Tepid

Tepid

"…?"0

He had a dazed look on his face before it turned sour. Why were they here?

If this were prior to today, he would adopt an innocent, smiling face to greet his grandfather affectionately.

However, having read that information faxed to him, he felt detached from him. Another thought came to him and then he smirked. Perhaps, his grandfather came here looking for help?

"Youyou… Erm, is your mommy at home?" Yun Yecheng anxiously asked.

"We can talk inside."

Youyou let them into the apartment with an extremely unfriendly look.

The couple had been studying Youyou's expression closely since they stepped through the door.

The grandfather felt something different about his grandson…

He could not tell what was different, except that the child had turned tepid. No smile was on his face, and he acted detached and cold to him.

Youyou was sensitive enough to pick up his queer look. He returned his gaze with daggers. His sharp and cold expression shocked his grandfather, who had gone through much in life. A boy his age should not have such a look!

"Youyou, what happened to you…"

Why is he so cold to me suddenly?

He would have affectionately called him 'grandpa' in the past. There must be a reason for this sudden change, though he could not pinpoint it even after thinking for a while.

His wife snorted. "What an ingrate. Have you forgotten how to greet your elderlies? Have your mother taught you respect?"

"It's none of your business what my mother teaches me," he coldly rebutted.

"You…" She was so furious she became speechless.

This boy is rebelling!

He was obedient in the past. Although she did not like him, he would still address her warmly as grandma. He would mind his manners even when she ignored him. He was not like that today. Not only was he rude, he even retaliated.

His face was especially tepid; his glare was so cold it could freeze the air particles around them!

His expression sent a chill down her spine.

"Are you rebelling?! You really are your mother's son; you don't have manners, too. What a b*st*rd through and through. Do you even know how to respect your elders? What a rude boy! Hmph…"

His patience had run out. "Did you brush your teeth before leaving the house?"

"Ah?" She could not comprehend his sarcasm.

He casually continued, "This is my house, so you'd better watch your mouth. It will be embarrassing for you if I throw you out."

"You—" She wanted to lash out to him but was stopped by her husband's harsh order, "Shut up now!"

The man could not stand it any longer.

She looked at him in surprise; his words were meant for her as he was staring hatefully at her!

She obediently closed her mouth for a change when she saw his simmering face.

They were here for an important matter.

Youyou leisurely sat on the sofa again and sneeringly asked, "Grandpa, mommy is not at home now; you can tell me what you want."
