Jiang Yun did not care about today's news. For a hundred-year-old man, there did not seem to be much to be concerned about.
After getting off the bus, he walked straight to Jinxiu Community in the western part of Tianhe City.
"Hello, Grandpa Barker!"
How has Uncle Jiang been recently?''
Along the way, many neighbors greeted Jiang Yun warmly. This was the neighborhood where Jiang Yun had lived for decades.
He was usually kind to people, and as a teacher at Tianhe City No.1 Middle School, he was well-respected in the neighborhood. However, what made people sigh was that Jiang Yun had never found a female companion.
When he was young, many people introduced him to her, and many girls even expressed their love for her, but Jiang Yun rejected them all.
As a transmigrator, his heart seemed to be out of place with everything around him.
It was only later that Jiang Yun figured it out. Since he could not change the world, he would change himself. He became a teacher and spent his days with books to comfort himself.
Of course, things changed five years ago.
He adopted Rui Mengmeng, a girl who was working everywhere and wandering in the city. His life began to add a lot of splendor.
"Grandpa, you're back!"
As soon as she entered the door, a passionate bear hug rushed over.
A petite girl with short silver hair, who was wearing an apron and smelled of oil and smoke, rushed into Jiang Yun's arms.
She raised her head and saw a face with many smoke marks and a little baby fat. Her eyes were big and bright, as clear as black crystals.
Mengmeng, you got off work so early today?''
Jiang Yun gently caressed Rui Mengmeng's back in a loving manner.
'Today is an important day. Grandpa, have you forgotten? Hehehe, Mengmeng specially came back to make delicious food for you!''
Rui Mengmeng made a mischievous face at Jiang Yun and said mysteriously,"
Five years ago.
The first time she saw Rui Mengmeng, she was still very introverted. The cold weather made her shiver and shrink in the corner, like a frightened little animal.
It was a rainy day.
Jiang Yun adopted Rui Mengmeng and treated her like his own daughter. It was Jiang Yun's care that made Rui Mengmeng gradually become more outgoing and outgoing. Her personality seemed to be bolder than before.
'What day is it today?' Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment. He was old, and his memory was poor.
Puchi! It's your birthday! Grandpa! Happy birthday!
Rui Mengmeng stood on her tiptoes and gently touched Jiang Yun's face. Her pretty face was flushed.
'Oh? It's my birthday today. Look at me, I almost forgot.''
Jiang Yun slapped his head. He had not celebrated his birthday for many years. He had almost forgotten about it. It was only after Mengmeng came that he started celebrating his birthday.
I'll do it, Mengmeng. You don't know how to cook.''
Jiang Yun rubbed Rui Mengmeng's silver hair lovingly and said with a smile.
For more than eighty years, Jiang Yun had nothing to do other than teaching. Therefore, he studied cooking, musical instruments, languages, and other miscellaneous things.
It could be said that apart from fighting, Jiang Yun was also considered a maxed out lifestyle player in the past. He was proficient in all kinds of lifestyle skills.
'No way! Grandpa is the birthday boy today. Besides, I, Rui Mengmeng, have inherited my culinary skills from Grandpa. Now, sit down obediently and don't move!''
Rui Mengmeng pouted and pressed Jiang Yun down on the chair with a serious expression. When she saw Jiang Yun accept it helplessly, she entered the kitchen with a smug look on her face.
Dinner was a simple meal of five dishes and one soup.
Jiang Yun had not been living a lavish life all these years. The income that a teacher could provide was limited. Rui Mengmeng naturally knew this, so she was very careful and did not spend extravagantly.
Grandpa, I hope you can live to be 200 years old. Mengmeng hopes to be by your side forever.''
After dinner, under the candlelight of the birthday cake, Rui Mengmeng looked at Jiang Yun with tears in her eyes.
She understood.
Jiang Yun's body was deteriorating day by day. A hundred years old was almost the end of an Earthling's lifespan. Perhaps Jiang Yun would leave her one day.
Rui Mengmeng did not know how to accept the fact that Jiang Yun would leave. She was afraid of being alone.
'Silly girl, I will always accompany you as you grow up, Mengmeng.''
Jiang Yun felt a warmth in his heart. He smiled and gently wiped the tears from Rui Mengmeng's eyes. He closed his eyes and made a wish before blowing out the candle.
'' Grandpa, I quit my job.''
Rui Mengmeng said.
'' Hmm? It's good that you quit. You're still young, so don't go out to work. I think it's better to go to the school where I teach and study hard.''
Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment before he smiled.
Back then, Rui Mengmeng had expressed that she wanted to support Jiang Yun and support him in his old age. She did not want to see Jiang Yun still teaching at his old age. Jiang Yun could not persuade her, and Rui Mengmeng was only thirteen years old at that time.
No, I want to stay at home and take care of Grandpa.''Rui Mengmeng held Jiang Yun's arm and said stubbornly.
Silly girl, Grandpa is in good health. You, on the other hand, are at school age now.''Jiang Yun said lovingly.
At this moment.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Excuse me, is Rui Mengmeng home?''
