Chapter 81 Bea Recently Seduced The Man From Somewhere "He is..." Grandpa did not want to
guess who the person was. If he guessed wrongly, it would be awkward.
Luke walked in with his suit and straightened back. He reached out his hand politely and intimately
wrapped his other arm around Bianca's waist. His gesture seemed to allow Grandpa to understand
their relationship.
"Are you the Jean Langdon that my son told me about?" Grandpa smiled and stood in front of the fire
pit. He said, "I tried to remember your name well after Bea's father told me the two of you have been
together for more than five years now and that the two of you are getting married soon."
Bianca was worried that Luke would correct him, so she immediately interrupted and said, "Grandpa,
look how thin you've gotten! Were you not used to life in Japan?"
"I'm old, and old people look like this." Grandpa put his arm around his hunched back and took the fire
stick to another dilapidated room.
After he searched for something for a long time, the old man took two small stools out and put them on
the kitchen floor. He invited his grandsonin-law to sit. ‘Come, boy. Have a seat here. We don't have any
nice furniture in this house."
Bianca looked at the two dilapidated wooden stools on the floor and glanced at Luke nervously. She
was worried that he would not want to sit on it.
However, Luke was thoughtful and took Grandpa’s feelings into account. He stepped down his usual
high horse and did not seem to mind sitting on the stool at all. He even pulled her to sit next to him and
said, "Come and sit, let's talk to Grandpa."
Grandpa sat on the small stool that was already in the kitchen.
"You can go ahead and talk to Grandpa. I need to get some groceries." Bianca pushed her luggage
aside and took some money from her bag. She glanced at Luke worriedly.
Luke understood what she was worried about and nodded to signify that he understood.
"Alright, I’ll be out." Bianca glanced at Grandpa before going out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Bianca walked past the red-bricked front yard and exited the gate, Bianca looked up and saw a lot
of people standing a few meters away.
She could still vaguely remember some of those neighbors' names.
In the eyes of those neighbors, she was the daughter of a wh*re, so she had to be a wh*re now that
she was all grown up. Those were the gossips she had heard all the time since she was a kid.
Bianca walked to a mini-mart that sold fresh produce.
Even though the people that discussed her behind her back were lesser, the story seemed to have
progressed a lot.
It seemed that the arrival of Luke and her had reawakened the old gossips that those people just about
forgot.
‘Is that Bea from the Raynes’ old house?" a middle-aged woman pointed at her and asked the others in
a low voice.
Someone answered immediately, "It must be. Even though she’s grown a lot, you can still tell that's her.
I could tell straight away that's the little Bea."
"Tsk. Times are different now. A river 30 years ago might be called the east river, but 30 years later, it
might be the west river. Look at how promising the Rayne daughter is, then compare her to my
daughter. My daughter only married a policeman from the county."
‘Mrs. Wilson, don't compare them that way. Your girl got married to the best compared to all the other
girls in our town.”
"Well, it’s not any better. The only reason my husband and I agreed to marry her off is because of the
betrothal gift that's worth 200,000. That, and the car that he bought for her dad that's worth more than
100,000.
Other than that, my son-in-law has no merits! All he has is money! I hate it!"
Someone stood up and praised Mrs. Wilson. "Well, your daughter married into a good family. I’m 80
percent sure that this Bea is a mistress. Look at this man's car. I bet it's worth millions! Perhaps Bea
recently seduced the man from somewhere and hurriedly brought him back to show him off to
the townspeople."
"This Bea is quite vain... She did the same thing as her shameless mom who ran off with a rich guy..." 1
Bianca bought vegetables, meat to cook the vegetables with, ribs, and seasonings from the mini-mart.
When she returned from her shopping, the gossiping middle-aged women were still there.
When she passed the front yard and entered the house, she saw Luke holding a bowl with leftovers in
his hand. He was about to pour it out, but Grandpa stared at the bowl of leftovers with dismay. He was
obviously trying to stop him, but he did not want to be rude.
"Grandpa, eating this bowl of vegetables will not do any good for your health. On the contrary, it will
cause more harm to you," Luke said that and dealt with the leftovers decisively.
Grandpa sat down silently without speaking.
Bianca stood at the doorway with the things in her hands. She could not say what she was feeling, but
it was an indescribable sense of security that flooded into her heart.
The well-clothed man walked into the kitchen. His white and slender fingers held the broken bowl. The
diamonds inlaid on the luxury watch that he wore on his wrist glimmered reflections of light in the dark
and shabby room. Everything looked completely out of place.
When Luke noticed that she was standing at the door and holding the groceries that she bought with a
flabbergasted look on her face, Luke put down the old and worn out bowl with the chipped edge down.
He lifted his head and asked, "You’re back? What did you get?"
Bianca was moved by how he played along and that he did not complain about how other houses in the
town had natural gas pipelines for their stoves. The ones that did not have them at least had gas tanks.
Her old grandpa still used a fire pit stove by burning branches that he picked from the forest.
Since Luke had spent a whole year in the town before, he knew about the customs of the townspeople.
The main reason Luojiazhen was not fantastically developed was because of the inactions of the
previous leader.
Now that they had changed leaders, the economy of that place was developing rapidly. The newly
elected government and developers were working together to develop the town rapidly. Therefore, the
value of Luojiazhen was going to follow suit.
Luke bought a gas tank and the delivery man installed it within 20 minutes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You can go and accompany Grandpa, let me handle this." Luke walked toward the cutting board. He
was worried that she did not know how to use the gas tank or that the old kitchen knife was too dull that
she would accidentally hurt her fingers.
"I’m fine. You should go and sit. Otherwise, I'll feel bad."
Bianca was very grateful for him but also felt guilty. Of course, she would not let him make dinner.
In addition to that, Bianca was surprised that he could cook.
Luke looked at what she was cutting before the old man called him over to talk.
Whether she was in the UK for those few years or when she was a tween in the small town, Bianca
always cooked. When she was a kid, her grandfather would be busy doing farm work in the fields, so
she would help pick the beans together on the weekends. When the sun was setting, she would run
back home to prepare dinner for her grandfather and herself. She always used firewood to do so.
Although she did not eat very well during those years, at least her stomach was filled.
During the years when she was studying, she had the money from her dad and the money she earned
from part-time work. At that time, she was so content with her life that it felt as if she was living in
heaven on earth. Her cooking skills gradually became better.
After she made sweet and sour ribs, Bianca brought it to the table and glanced at her grandpa.
Grandpa was smiling so widely that his eyes were almost closed.
Luke was gesturing gracefully when they were talking about something. As always, he still looked like
the boss that he was. However, Grandpa seemed to be listening attentively, admiring the grandson-in-
law. He was grateful that God gave such an outstanding man to his granddaughter.
"Okay Grandpa, enough with the chit-chatting. Come over and eat,' Bianca called out as she placed the
food on the table.
The store delivered three high plastic stools. The old foldable tables in the storeroom were all folded
up. At that moment, Grandpa felt very embarrassed and was worried that his grandson-in-law would
feel contempt.
"Jean, our little town is not as great as the city. Come, let us all eat and try out Bea's cooking." Grandpa
used his chopsticks and grabbed a piece of rib for Luke.
