Capítulo 46: Chapter 45: Old Man X
As soon as this uncle approached, Yuyu felt a bit bewildered, unsure of what to make of him.
To add to the peculiarity, the words "favorite degree +8" appeared on the uncle's forehead.
Could it be that he's being harassed by this man from Hawaii?
At that moment, China emerged from the back and was taken aback by the sight of the uncle.
The uncle turned his head, spotting China in her maid costume. His eyes lit up, seemingly losing interest in Yuyu, and hurriedly walked towards Qianna...
...until he hugged her tightly in his arms.
"Hahaha, my little granddaughter, China, you're still as adorable as ever after all this time. You haven't grown tall at all. It's wonderful!" The uncle's eyes squinted with delight.
Yuyu: "..."
China... his granddaughter?
He turned to China, seeking clarification, "Is... this your grandpa?"
China, still in his grasp, turned her head blankly, "I don't know."
Though she claimed not to know, her lack of resistance made it clear that this odd man with a Hawaiian vibe, wearing flip-flops and behaving unconventionally, was indeed her grandfather...
Yuyu soon pieced something together.
Unable to contain his curiosity, he asked, "China, the things you mentioned before, about the store manager..."
"Yeah," the girl replied with a blank expression, "It's him."
Yuyu: "..."
If that's the case, it's not surprising that China got permission to hire Yuyu, as soon as she called the manager, after all, China is not just a diligent student, but also the store manager's own granddaughter. It's only natural that she has some influence in this matter.
"Ahem, China," the un- grandpa released his granddaughter and cleared his throat, seemingly trying to save face. "Did anyone ask about me while I was away?"
"Yeah, someone asked how was your personality like," China calmly said. "I said you have a heart as soft as tofu, but your also very stingy and can be a drag sometimes, oh oh and dumb to"
The store manager nodded approvingly hearing the first part..
She truly is my granddaughter. Unlike those superficial girls, she speaks her mind truthfully both behind closed doors and in front of people. As a grandfather, I'm delighted by her straightforwardness...
but the second part…
The store manager was thunderstruck.
It turns out that my image in my granddaughter's mind is so terrible?
Yuyu, an outsider observing the scene, couldn't help but feel that while the grandfather-granddaughter relationship seemed close, there was always an underlying sense of subtlety...
Old man X continued changing the topic: "Ahem! Let me tell you something, I was really late on time for the train. I also couldn't find where my ticket went. So I had to take a another train another day...."
"Wont it be simple to just get another ticket?" Yuyu didn't feel that this was a big deal.
Losing tickets for a train is a common occurrence, though he hasn't done it himself. But generally speaking, this is not a big deal. The conductor will generally allow passengers to make up the fare.
"Idiot, is not problem with the ticket"cX scolded angrily, "The problem is that the ticket is gone, so I can't remember where to get off the bus!"
Yuyu: "..."
That's...it's really unfortunate…seems like he really is dumb.
China still behaved calmly, as if it wasn't surprising at all: "He has always been like this, just get used to it."
"Ahem."
X tried to change the subject once more. His gaze fell on the card pack that Yuyu was planning to open before he came, and he laughed: "Shahaha you buying a pack for your deck?"
What a weird laugh…
"Yeah." Yuyu nodded, "The duel city competition is coming up, I want to buy some new cards to build a new deck."
China quickly facilitated an introduction between Yuyu and the shop owner, ito X. It turned out that the grandpa also had a weird name.
By the way," X turned to Yuyu and began examining him closely, "I heard that you're also a duelist?"
Bro you just heard him mention he was opening packs for his deck..
China chimed in, "Yuyu is incredible. Even the runner-up in the Duel Kingdom Competition came to the store to challenge him, but couldn't even come close to defeating him."
"Is that so?" X's admiration for Yuyu grew with each passing moment, as if a collector had stumbled upon a once-in-a-lifetime gem.

Yuyu: "..."
"Oh, little China, I told you it was dangerous for me to go out this time." Old man X had a lingering look on his face, "Your grandfather was almost lost, and you might never have seen him again."
China remained unaffected, showing no interest in what he was about to say. "Preparing to participate in the Duel City Tournament? Ambitious. It's a major competition where strong duelists from across the country gather." X smiled and waved his hand. "Check out my collection library. I've amassed quite a collection, and you can have any card you desire..." He was all over the place, one moment talking to China about one subject, then to Yuyu.
Yuyu was pleasantly surprised.
Is this guy really that generous?
"Thank you, store manager."
"Just call me grandpa." X smiled. "It's all trivial. But you must take good care of little China in the future."
Yuyu: "?"
What is the old man suddenly saying?
Why would I need to do that?
China suddenly panicked. "Grandpa, what are you talking about? We just met."
"Huh?" The old man blinked, a little puzzled. "He's not...your?"
"No." China blushed slightly and retorted angrily, "When did I say that?"
"Huh? But you said so many good things about this kid on the phone earlier?" The old man appeared confused.
China grew increasingly anxious, her face turning even redder. "I... I never said such a thing..."
"Alright, alright, if you didn't say it, then it didn't happen." X shook his head, unable to comprehend the situation.
After contemplating for a moment, he turned to Yuyu. "Oh, kid, I mentioned getting a card for you... but I suddenly remembered that the key to the warehouse seems to be lost. I apologize."
Yuyu: "..."
Bruh
