Determined to Wither

Even though he had never met his granddaughter Wu Lingyun, Grandpa Xiao still felt like her voice was very warm, pleasant, and touching.

He imagined that her hair would be soft, just like his wife's, and just like all the other members of the Xiao family.

Elder Xiao wiped his tears and nodded at the phone.

"Good, good. Little girl, don't cry. Grandpa isn't crying anymore, so be good and don't cry too! Grandpa will wait for you to come back, okay?"

"Okay, okay!" Wu Lingyun nodded in agreement.

The Wu family's banquet went very smoothly. With Chi Yang, Li Heyi, Nangong Nuannuan, and Xiao Yuqi there, many guests predicted that the Wu family was about to rise to a higher status.
