Chapter 699: Chapter 700: It Will Be Alright
He could tell now, this was Grandpa ng’s way of showing affection for soone, holding onto her and chatting away like soone with verbal diarrhea. Why would he act like the last ti, when he handed the phone to Du Jinruo and let her talk to him?
There clearly wasn’t much he had wanted to say to Du Jinruo, was there?
But now that he had encountered Chiang Xiao, the old man wouldn’t even consider his longing for his little fiancée after not seeing her for so ti, staunchly refusing to give them any chance for so alone ti!
Resentnt.
ng Xinian’s resentnt lasted all night.
Old ng talked with Chiang Xiao the whole night. He went from talking about her grandpa to her mom and then to her, almost as if he was going to dig up everything about her.
Chiang Xiao didn’t hold anything back, telling the truth about everything.
She didn’t care if Old ng would look down on her background or not.
However, Old ng, after listening to her story, couldn’t help but feel pity for her. “You’ve really had it tough. It’ll be better in the future. Let this stinky boy take good care of you!”
After saying this, he reached out and gave ng Xinian a forceful pat on the back, “Did you hear that? Little is not to be taken lightly. You need to treat her twice as nicely from now on! Otherwise, I won’t let it go so easily!”
“Old man, do I even need you to say that? What if I treasure her in the palm of my hand?” ng Xinian spoke, fixing his gaze steadily on Chiang Xiao.
Chiang Xiao’s heartbeat couldn’t help but skip again.
Tyrant ng was breaking the rules again!
Was this a veiled declaration of love?
But she hadn’t grown up, hadn’t grown up, hadn’t grown up yet!
Suddenly, the air was filled with pink bubbles, even thick-skinned Old ng noticed sothing was up. He burst into laughter, grabbed ng Xinian’s hand, then grabbed Chiang Xiao’s hand and placed hers in his, clapping ng Xinian’s hand over it.
“Age doesn’t matter, you two are engaged. Back in the day, I also married ng Xi’s grandma when I was fifteen. No matter what, you two need to take good care of each other in the future, always keep each other in mind. That’s enough. I wasn’t there when you got engaged, so consider tonight a makeup for that.”
ng Xinian held Chiang Xiao’s hand, looking intently at her.
Chiang Xiao felt like a deer caught in headlights, completely unexpected Grandpa ng’s move. Her hand twitched slightly, and she felt ng Xinian imdiately grasp it even tighter, making her face heat up.
All of a sudden, ng Xinian felt like Chiang Xiao understood everything.
How could she be just a thirteen-year-old girl?
Her reaction was clearly that of a grown-up girl who understood everything.
“Grandpa, we’ll be good,” he said in a husky voice, very seriously, then turned to Chiang Xiao and asked, “Right, Chiang Xiaoxiao?”
Chiang Xiao didn’t want to answer, but ng Xinian’s current gaze gave her no escape.
Old ng was also watching her, forcing her to nod with a muffled, “Mhm…”
A smile curled on ng Xinian’s lips.
“Good, good, good. I’ve finally fulfilled this wish in my lifeti. Grandpa is happy, very happy!” Old ng laughed out loud.
After the al, Chiang Xiao declined the offer to stay over at the ng Family’s.
Old ng, knowing even ng Xinian was refusing to co ho, just sighed without insisting further.
“Alright then, I’ll head back first. Xinian will arrange everything for you. How about we all have lunch together tomorrow?”
Chiang Xiao had initially planned to rush back early in the morning, but the hopeful look in Old ng’s eyes made it hard for her to refuse, so she reluctantly nodded.
Delighted, Old ng happily went back, while ng Xinian took Chiang Xiao for a walk, under the pretext of aiding digestion.
At the end of September in Capital City, the night had already started to feel a bit nippy, but for the two of them there was no chill. That pink, bubbly atmosphere seed to linger and had not yet cleared away.
