âGrandpa, itâs okay, weâll come here and be with you too, and the children will too. With the four little ones here, youâll be so happy!â Bai Susu said with a smile.
âGood, good, my great-granddaughters are coming, haha!â Bai Zhentian laughed and said.
How wonderful!
The estate is about to be lively again.
I wonât be lonely anymore.
I will have great-grandchildren.
Then, Iâll have something to boast about with those old guys.
Itâs really cool!
âYeah, itâs going to be lively again soon,â Ye Fan said.
âYes, just thinking about it makes me a bit impatient. Do you have any photos of the kids?â Bai Zhentian asked, looking at Bai Susu beside him.
He was eager to see the photographs of his great-grandchildren.
Wondering which of the little ones they resemble.
Itâs really good!
âI do, I took some full-moon celebration photos, I still have pictures on my phone. Iâll show them to you in a bit!â Bai Susu said.
Seeing her grandfather so happy made her feel very happy too.
âRight, letâs sit in the pavilion in the courtyard for a while and have some tea and snacks brought over,â Bai Zhentian said to the butler beside him.
âYes, Master.â The butler immediately hurried off to prepare.
The three of them sat in the hallâs chairs, chatting happily.
Bai Susu then took out the photos on her phone, which were transferred to her phone by the photographer when they took photos of the babies.
Now, thankfully, she had these.
Otherwise, grandpa really wouldnât be able to see them.
âLook, these four little ones all look alike, look, they all resemble the both of you. Theyâre almost the same, so fair and tender, just adorable.â Bai Zhentian remarked while flipping through the photos on the phone.
The little ones are really good looking!
âThese little ones, they look just like you when you were little, Susu.â
âReally, Grandpa? I canât tell. I think they all just look fair and chubby,â Bai Susu said.
Indeed!
I was also fair and chubby when I was young, and I was quite adorable too.
In the blink of an eye, I have children now.
Time flies so fast.
Back then, Grandpa was so young, and now heâs an old man with white hair.
Thinking of this, Bai Susu felt a sudden pang of sadness.
Time always slips quietly through your fingers, and by the time you realize it, a lot of it has gone by, and everything from the past seems like another world.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âGrandpa, tell me about Susuâs childhood,â Ye Fan said as he leaned in closer to Bai Zhentian.
He was curious about what Bai Susu was like as a child.
Was she also beautiful, and was her nature as adorable then as it is now?
âHaha, all right, Iâll tell you about Susuâs childhood,â Bai Zhentian said, seeming genuinely interested.
The butler also had tea and pastries brought over.
âGrandpa, you canât tell the embarrassing stories from when I was little!â Bai Susu earnestly looked at her grandpa, her face showing a hint of nervousness.
If he told the embarrassing stories from her childhood, what would Ye Fan think of her?
âSilly girl, there are no strangers here, whatâs there to hide? Itâll be good for Ye Fan to know,â Bai Zhentian said.
âExactly, see, you must not even consider me your future husband,â Ye Fan immediately said.
âNo, itâs not like that. All right, Grandpa, go ahead, I wonât talk,â Bai Susu said, a bit aggrieved.
Forget it, after all, I know about the embarrassing things from Ye Fanâs childhood too.
Those awkward moments are really funny.
âThatâs right, you know about mine, whatâs there to be scared of,â Ye Fan said with a smile.
âActually, Susu has been strictly controlled by her parents since she was young. She always loved meat, and her parents controlled her diet, fearing that sheâd eat too much, get chubby, and wouldnât look good. So, she used to run to my place because I would always have meat ready, like sausages, cured meat, chicken legs, fried fish, and so on. Many times her parents would take her straight back home,â Old Master Bai said.
âLater, when I found out, I scolded her parents, and this is how Bai Susu got to eat some meat,â he continued.
âAnd many times, she was forced to attend extra classes, have tutors, join art classes, etc. Those were Susuâs compulsory weekend activities. Whenever she didnât want to go, I would cover for her. Her childhood wasnât filled with many fun things,â Bai Zhentian said with a slight sigh.
Bai Susuâs childhood wasnât a happy one.
Ye Fan felt very upset hearing this.
This girl Bai Susu never mentioned any of this to him.
No wonder that when Ye Fanâs mother talked about his childhood, she was especially interested and listened intently, her eyes full of longing.
Who would have thought Bai Susuâs childhood had been like thatâ¦
âI remember once during a birthday party for Susu, when she was still in elementary school, a little boy confessed his feelings to her, and what did Susu do? She beat up the boy right there, scared him off good. â
âYou may see Susu as gentle and well-behaved now, but as a child, she was a real little terror. Back then, many people were afraid to mess with her; she was quite the violence. Now, though, she has changed a lot,â Bai Zhentian said, laughing.
