Finally satisfied, she took a step back and said, "Guibao, Auntie Wu just came by to tell us that Grandpa will be joining us tomorrow."
"Oh, then I'm going to sleep." Helian Qiao was not at all surprised.
He should be joining us, of course!
Gu Tingyun, however, looked solemn and said, "Guibao, thank you."
Just like how Grandpa understands him best, he understands her just as well.
When Guibao said those words and Grandfather didn't immediately say "no," he knew that Grandpa wasn't resistant to joining them on their outing.
They just hadn't asked Grandpa before.
The Little Princess didn't quite understand. She rubbed her chubby cheek and her moist eyes were filled with confusion: "Why are you thanking me?"
The Big Bad Dragon is being too polite now, which is not something she is accustomed to.
Seeing her puzzled, Gu Tingyun didn't clarify. He just reached out and patted her little head gently, softly saying, "It's nothing, go back to bed soon!"
