Chapter 140 - Tell the truth and receive lighter punishment
Nanny Lin sighed helplessly. “You this girl, you’re too stubborn! Why do you care what they say? As long as you really like Grandpa, won’t it be alright?
Just because of avoiding suspicion, just because you don’t even want to fight back, you haven’t come back in a long time! Just because of those bad guys, you’re going against him?”
The more Nanny Lin spoke, the more angry she became. “Do you have any idea how much your grandfather misses you? When the old man can’t sleep at night, he would get up, put on his old glasses and look at your photo. When he hears even a little bit of sound from a little girl, thinking it was you, he would ask if his baby girl is back!”
Gong Xiaoqiao became even more sorrowful as she listened.
“And also! I heard your grandfather say that when he saw you at the wedding, he had been so happy and had wanted to speak a few words with you. The result, you hid when you saw him.
When the old man came home, he was so hurt that he didn’t even take his meal. I just called a couple of friends that he plays together with and it wasn’t easy to get him to go out to go fishing!”
As soon as Nanny Lin’s talking box was opened, she couldn’t stop. “Speaking of which, I can’t believe that Qin Yao, that bad boy ran away with another woman at the wedding! I heard that that woman is a little actress who works with him!”
“Heng, let me tell you something secretly. It’s his comeuppance!” Nanny Lin told her quietly. She didn’t know that Qiao Eleven was Gong Xiaoqiao.
Nanny Lin seldom watched TV, and also didn’t pay attention to the things in the entertainment industry, so not knowing what was going on was normal.
However Grandpa had been present at the wedding and had watched her leave with Qin Yao.
Therefore even if she was so tired, so sad, and was eager to seek Grandpa for comfort, she couldn’t face him at this time. Unable to bear the blame given to her by the person close to her.
However she didn’t expect that even though Grandpa saw her, he didn’t say a word to her and treated her so well. Gong Xiaoqiao didn’t know what to say.
……
Gong Xiaoqiao finished eating the omelet, the dumplings and drank the white porridge with the soybean milk. After almost all the things on the table were cleaned up, she took a deep breath.
Instead of being afraid here, she might as well confess for him to be lenient later.
However looking at the old man sitting across from her looking at her contentedly, Gong Xiaoqiao couldn’t bear to break the warmth.
“Are you full?” Grandpa Gong asked with a smile.
Watching his baby granddaughter having such a good appetite, he was even happier than her.
“En.” Gong Xiaoqiao nodded. “It’s still Grandpa who knows how to cook best!”
“Better than your brother Shen?” Grandpa Gong asked a little childishly.
Gong Xiaoqiao’s face stiffened, but then it quickly returned to it’s original state. “Of course it’s Grandpa who makes the best food!”
Grandpa Gong immediately smiled, looking like a naughty old school boy.
Gong Xiaoqiao finally plucked up the courage. “Grandpa, I’m sorry…”
Grandpa Gong sighed. “Girl, don’t say sorry to Grandpa. Your own way still requires you yourself to walk on it. Regardless of what others think, Grandpa can only guide you, but cannot make decisions for you! Grandpa only wants to ask you one thing today…”
“Grandpa, please ask.”
Grandpa Gong looked serious. “Are you still unable to let go of that Qin boy? Tell Grandpa the truth.”
“I have already let go a long time ago.” Gong Xiaoqiao answered without hesitating.
Grandpa Gong nodded with satisfaction. “En. You are worthy of being Grandpa’s granddaughter. I’m not disappointed.”
