Chapter 625 - Thoughtful Words (2/2)
Ling Sheng looked at the old woman in the kitchen, her eyes wet as warm bubbles formed in her heart. She walked over and hugged her from behind. In a soft voice, she said, “Grandma, I missed you.”
Su Xiyin patted her hand lovingly and said gently, “Grandma missed you too.”
This girl had only been gone for half a month. Why was she becoming increasingly clingier? She was like a child that warmed one’s heart.
Ling Sheng was afraid. What had happened in the Maldives had scared her deep down. She was afraid that she would disappear and never see her family again.
“What’s wrong?” Su Xiyin sensed that her mood had gotten worse. She frowned, her face full of worry. “Your father made you suffer again. He’s a scumbag. Don’t stoop to his level. Your grandparents dote on you.”
“I won’t.” Ling Sheng felt that she had to cherish the happy life she had now. She had long known about her father’s bad temper and had already developed the ability to resist. She would not get angry if he did something such as abandon them—a mother and son duo. “I just missed you and grandpa.”
Su Xiyin smiled. Her granddaughter was sweet and considerate. She did not know what that scumbag Ci Er was thinking. She would punish him when he got home. In a gentle voice, she replied, “Okay.”
Girls were better. Ci Er had never said anything so considerate to her in his life. He always made her angry, but what should she do? No matter what, he was still her son.
The brown sugar ginger water was ready very soon. Su Xiyin looked at the mother and son sitting next to each other in front of the table. Their eating movements were identical. Xiaoqi had a small bowl in front of him, while Sheng Sheng had a big bowl.
When the duo finished drinking the water, they looked up at her in unison with a sweet smile. They even spoke in unison.
“Grandma, another bowl.”
“Great-grandmother, another bowl.”
Su Xiyin was overjoyed. Her face was full of affection and comfort. After thinking about it for most of her life, her wish had finally come true. However, she was a little regretful that she had not been there for her granddaughter’s childhood. It was as though she had grown up overnight.
