Of course he is handsome.
It's just that Shi Yan hasn't thought about being a stepmother yet.
She didn't even bother to think about marriage. If it weren't for dealing with Lin Mei, she wouldn't be here today.
Shi Yan curled her lips and smiled. She politely rejected the man's kindness, then turned and left.
Autumn in Beijing is so bleak.
The cold wind blew, and Tan Yan looked at Shi Yan's thin figure that was gradually blurring, with a meaningful flash in his eyes.
Ding dong.
Cold wind poured into the coffee shop, the automatic door beep sounded again, and the little girl happily ran to the stern man.
She looked up at the man, her clear pupils filled with curiosity.
"Dad, how are you? Did Sister Shi Yan say anything to you?"
Tan Yan lowered his head and saw Tan Sile tugging at the corner of his clothes, waiting expectantly for her answer.
"No."
Tan Sile's raised lips instantly dropped.
She was like a lost puppy who had been abandoned. She lowered her head in grievance and whispered: "I just want that mother..."
"Your charm is so bad that you can't even attract my sister's attention. You really don't live up to expectations."
"So sad oooooooooo."
Her voice became softer and softer, and her head lowered lower and lower.
"etc……"
Halfway through crying, she thought of something and suddenly raised her head, "Sister Shi Yan called you, so you should have her phone number!"
"Dad, you-uh-uh!"
Tan Sile spoke excitedly, but Tan Yan covered her mouth before she was halfway through speaking.
The crisp and familiar cold fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose. Tan Sile stared dissatisfiedly, but could not say a word.
"Talk about music."
Tan Yan called her name carelessly.
The tone was obviously very calm.
But Tan Sile felt a chill running down his spine.
"Don't you think your enthusiasm will cause trouble to others?"
Tan Sile blinked innocently, obviously not understanding.
Tan Yan glanced at her and pinched her cheek hard with his slender fingers.
"If you let others act as your mother, others will think you are a bait for human traffickers."
"stupid."
He flicked Tan Sile's head, then withdrew his hand and walked towards the elevator.
Tan Sile was knocked unconscious. She covered the pain in disbelief and took a long time to react.
"I'm the bait, so aren't you a human trafficker?"
"Dad, why are you scolding yourself!"
Tan Sile chirped after him, "No, what on earth are you thinking?"
"You're almost on your third trimester! If you haven't found a partner yet, my great-grandmother and grandma will arrange a blind date for you again."
"Ah ah ah, do you understand, I don't want those two-faced people to be my mother!"
Tan Yan paid no attention to it, but glanced at Tan Sile's short legs and quietly quickened his pace.
Tan Sile was so angry that he could only jog: "Dad, slow down! I'm talking to you!"

On the other side, Shi Yan had already driven to the nursing home.
The sanatorium has a quiet environment. Even on a rainy day, there are still old people gathering in the ancient pavilion to chat.
Shi Yan parked the car and carried the fruit to the sixteenth floor of Building A.
As soon as I got out of the elevator, I ran into a nurse holding a list.
When she saw Shi Yan, a smile appeared on her lips: "Miss Shi came to see grandpa?"
Shi Yan nodded.
The nurse remembered something, stuffed the list into her pocket, approached Shi Yan, and reminded her in a low voice: "Ms. Shi, you have to come here often these days."
"Your grandpa is not in good condition recently. He has been clamoring to go home for the past two days. I called your mother and asked family members to take care of him for a few days, but she kept refusing. No, Mr. Lin's caregiver was also hired for several days. Fake, I was just about to call you, and you came over."
Shi Yan frowned.
Lin Mei didn't even mention this to her.
"Thank you Zhang Hu, you can go and do your work first."
Nurse: "Okay, then I'll go downstairs. If you need anything, you can go to the nurse's station. Someone is there."
Shi Yan smiled at Zhang Hu, then turned around and stepped into 1601.
As soon as he entered the ward, Shi Yan heard two bursts of laughter.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"This is so interesting, Old Lin. If I have a chance next time, I must let me meet your granddaughter."
The person who spoke was an old lady. As soon as Shi Yan opened the door, he saw her sitting beside the hospital bed.
The old lady was about sixty or seventy years old. Her clothes were simple, her lips were light-colored, and there were several tiny pinpricks on her right hand. She looked like she was recovering from a serious illness.
On the left hand side is Lin Jingshen's bedside table, which contains an exquisite fruit flower basket and a bouquet of beautifully packaged plain white jasmine.
Shi Yan raised his eyebrows, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Hello."
The old lady's eyes had already been on Shi Yan.
Hearing the girl's greeting, she suppressed the surprise in her eyes and nodded quickly: "Hey, hello."
"Are you Lao Lin's granddaughter?"
She smiled kindly, and just when she was about to get up and ask something else, a string of cheerful ringtones came from the bag she was carrying in her left hand.
The old lady said "Ouch" and stood up quickly: "I almost forgot, my grandson came to pick me up from the hospital."
"I have to go down first, Lao Lin, I'll leave first."
"Little girl, sit here. Next time I have a chance, grandma will talk to you more~"
After saying this, the old lady carried the low-key platinum bag and left the ward at a fast pace. Before stepping out, she smiled brightly at Shi Yan, as if she was very satisfied.
Shi Yan looked at the old man leaning against the bed inexplicably: "Grandpa, what is that?"
Lin Jingshen's expression softened when he saw Shi Yan. He motioned for Shi Yan to sit next to him and said slowly: "That's the old lady who was hospitalized on the seventeenth floor before. I met her when we were playing chess. She was discharged from the hospital today. Come see me here.”
Shi Yan's heart instantly softened.
In his memory, Lin Jingshen was a quiet person. After entering this nursing home, he spent most of his time alone.
On sunny days I would go for a walk alone, and on rainy days I would sit in the ward and look outside.
Being able to make a few friends now is considered a good thing.
"That's great." Shi Yan put down his bag, sat on the low stool next to him, picked up the fruit he just bought, and started peeling it skillfully.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry. I was delayed because of something on the road. Is there anything you want to eat these days? Tell me and I'll go back and cook it."
Shi Yan glanced at the bruises on Lin Jingshen's hands caused by the infusion, and felt a sharp pain in his heart.
"By the way, after returning to China this year, I won't go out."
She calmly moved her eyes away and said calmly: "After you feel more comfortable in two days, I will take you out of the hospital and you will live in my new home from now on."
"That villa has good lighting and ventilation. The master bedroom on the second floor is decorated in the style you like. It's best for you to maintain your health."
"There is also a small garden in front. You can plant whatever you want."
Lin Jingshen's eyes were filled with relief, "Grandpa, why are you staying at your house?"
"This nursing home is quite nice. We usually have people to talk to and play chess with. I'm going to your place. Are you bored to death?"
After he finished speaking earnestly, he couldn't help but sigh again when he thought about the past.
"I'm sorry, Yanyan, grandpa didn't give you anything, and he became a burden to you and your father."
"You have grown up now, and if grandpa doesn't go, if your mother finds out, it will definitely make you uneasy again."
"Just live by yourself and be obedient."
He stretched out his skinny hand and wanted to pat Shi Yan on the head.
But as soon as he made any movement, overwhelming pain would be felt in his internal organs.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He gritted his teeth to hold back the pain. He retracted his hand tremblingly and struggled to smile.
"Don't worry about me. I'm fine here. Just do whatever you need to do these days and leave me alone."
"By the way, grandpa has something to tell you."
Shi Yan didn't see the sadness flashing in Lin Jingshen's eyes. She sliced the peeled apples into pieces, put them on a clean porcelain plate and handed them over.
"What's the matter, grandpa, please tell me."
Lin Jingshen smiled happily: "You are twenty-six this year and grandpa is seventy-six. If grandpa lives for another ten years, he should be able to see you get married and have children."
"But grandpa's health is not good, and he probably won't be alive for ten years."
"Grandpa, what are you talking about?" Shi Yanxin panicked for no reason and quickly interrupted, "Don't say depressing words, you are in good health."
Lin Jingshen's smile faded a little: "I know my body well, it's only been in the past few months."
"Yan Yan, I want to tell you today for no other reason than that grandpa has arranged a marriage for you."
"You should have seen the grandma just now. Her grandson is very nice. I have seen the young man. He is young and promising, mature and stable, and has good looks."
"Promise me to go get the certificate from him tomorrow."
Shi Yan was shocked: "Get the certificate?"
"Grandpa, do you know what you are talking about?"
