Right Here Waiting For You - Chapter 60 - No More Drinking
Chapter 60: No More Drinking
Last night?
Ning Tiantian tried her best to recall but to no avail. She then shook her head and answered truthfully, “I don’t remember.”
Li Yanmo’s pent-up anger seemingly dissolved in an instant. But not before he admonished Tiantian, “No more drinking!”
“Oh…” Tiantian’s cheeks inflated as she asked curiously, “What exactly did I do last night?”
How did she manage to make Inky so mad?!
“You clamored for a kiss,” said Grandpa Li, as he walked in the door with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

Ning Tiantian bit her finger, saying, “No, it can’t be just that. Something else must have happened, too, for Inky to be so angry.”
“That would be the kick you delivered to his face after kissing him,” teased Grandpa Li.
“I was such a jerk!” Ning Tiantian quickly checked Li Yanmo’s face for injuries. Good thing his face was still intact.
“You’re too old to be eavesdropping, Grandpa,” said Li Yanmo sullenly.
How could he think of eavesdropping on two kids?! At his age!
Grandpa coughed lightly and attempted to divert the topic, so as to save himself the embarrassment. “Are you guys here for a vacation? Better get out of bed now. It’ll get really crowded in the afternoon.
After saying this, Grandpa Li left the room.
Ning Tiantian smiled at Li Yanmo ingratiatingly, while tugging at his arm. “Inky, don’t be angry. I didn’t do it on purpose…”
“I’m not angry!” Li Yanmo tapped her on her head, not unkindly, a small smile adorning his face.
Ning Tiantian, revenge is a dish best served cold.
When they finally went downstairs, Grandpa Li was fiddling with his abacus behind the counter.
“Let’s go, Grandpa Li!” Tiantian came over with a bounce in her step. She was wearing a hat to keep out the sun–an off-shoulder dress with light blue flowers–and was holding a mini-electric fan in her hand.
Next to her, Li Yanmo was dressed much more simply in a white shirt and black pants and was carrying a black bag. His demeanor was cool enough to dispel the summer heat.
Grandpa Li gestured at them. “Who’s playing with you? My guesthouse rakes in thousands every day. You already got in my way yesterday, so don’t get in my way again today. Go play by yourselves!”
Ning Tiantian was astounded at how much of a moneygrubber Grandpa Li was.
“Tiantian is a girl, so she should go shopping!” she heard Grandpa Li say.
Grandpa Li retrieved a bank card from the safe and placed it in her hands, then shooed them away impatiently. “All right, leave now. Don’t get in the way of this old man!”
Li Yanmo had been familiar with Zhangjiajie since he was young, so he wasn’t worried about them losing their way.
After being shooed off like this, Ning Tiantian scratched her head in bewilderment. “Did Grandpa used to learn Peking opera? How could he change faces so quickly?”
One moment he was acting like a moneygrubber, the next he was asking her to shop to her heart’s content. What did he really mean?
Staring at Grandpa Li drinking his tea and listening to music leisurely, he said, “Grandpa just doesn’t want to play with us. He spent most of his life here, so he already knows the place inside out.”
“All right, then…”
Their first stop was the newly built glass bridge. Since it was still really early, there were very few people around, and it was pleasantly quiet. The bridge was shrouded in mist, making it look like a celestial realm.
Obscured by clouds and mist, the glass bridge was like an extremely long thread of white silk. Standing on the bridge itself really made one feel as if they were emerging from the water and the mountains.
