The man tightened his grip on his chopsticks. He picked up some of Ling'er's favourite dishes and placed them into the bowl in front of her. The man looked at Ling'er.
Xiao Jiu tilted his head and looked at Ling'er. After sizing her up for a while, he said, "I feel that Grandma has lost weight too. Is Grandpa bullying you? But I'm here. I won't let Grandpa bully you."
Ling'er looked at the dishes in the bowl. Just as she was about to pick them up and put them into her mouth, she heard Xiao Jiu's words. She couldn't help but laugh again. "Has Xiao Jiu become so powerful?"
"Of course. If you don't believe me, I'll show you my muscles."
Xiao Jiu put down his chopsticks. His small hands neatly rolled up his sleeves, revealing his small, fleshy arms. Then, he clenched his hands into fists, and his arms bulged a little.
Xiao Jiu even used his hands to poke at the bulging parts and shouted excitedly, "Grandma, look, there are muscles."
