Xia Shige didn't understand why Mr. Zhou, whom she had only met once, would say such words to her. She just felt a little embarrassed.

People always pretend to be busy when they are in an awkward situation. Xia Shige subconsciously pretended to be thirsty, picked up the teacup in front of him and started drinking.

Zhang Bo, the housekeeper standing next to Mr. Zhou, coughed lightly when he saw this and signaled to Mr. Zhou with his eyes - don't scare the child!

Mr. Zhou glared at Uncle Zhang and signaled him to stop interfering.

During this meeting, Xia Shige felt embarrassed, and so did Mr. Zhou himself!

As an elderly man, he felt very awkward when he took the initiative to talk to his son's girlfriend and daughter.

But the problem is that he has no other choice now.

Seeing that Zhou Hong had been pursuing Xia Huiyin for more than half a year without any progress, and now he had gotten himself shot and was hospitalized, upon hearing the news, Mr. Zhou almost fainted on the spot, and only managed to survive by taking a whole bottle of heart-saving pills.

Mr. Zhou couldn't just wait like this any longer, he felt that he had to do something! Help his son marry his daughter-in-law!

Since Zhou Hong doesn't let him find Xia Huiyin, he can find Xia Huiyin's family!

——Just now, Xia Shige, who came to the medical center to visit a patient, ran into his gun.

Old Master Zhou looked at Xia Shige kindly. He hoped that Xia Shige could open her heart and tell him about the hardships that the mother and daughter had gone through over the years. In this way, he could comfort Xia Shige as an elder, get closer to Xia Shige, and promote his son indirectly.

Under Grandpa Zhou's expectant gaze, Xia Shige put down the teacup in his hand and answered sincerely: "...Actually, there is no grievance. You know, many families in China raise children in a widowed way, and those with fathers may not be much better..."

Thinking of the way that Xia Yadong's family was lying on Xia Huiyin and sucking her blood, Xia Shige lowered his eyes slightly and replied expressionlessly: "My mother and I are living well."

——At least life is much better than before the divorce. After the divorce, Xia Huiyin no longer has to make money to support Yadong's mistress and illegitimate children.

Mr. Zhou: “…”

“Cough, cough, cough, cough…” Mr. Zhou coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment and continued, “That being said… But for so many years, you and your daughter have been relying on each other, so you must have encountered many difficulties…”

At this point, Mr. Zhou picked up the teacup and took two sips, then continued, "Good boy, since we are destined to be together... you can also treat me as your real grandfather!

"If you need anything in the future or encounter any difficulties, you can contact me at any time. As long as the Zhou family has this ability, we will do our best to help you solve it!"

Considering Mr. Zhou's status, his words carried great weight. Even the butler Zhang Bo beside him was a little surprised. He subconsciously looked up at Xia Shige, but Xia Shige's expression was not as flattered as he had imagined.

Xia Shige: “…”

Xia Shige knew that Mr. Zhou meant well, but she still felt a little awkward - why would someone be so eager to be someone else's grandfather?

Especially since this person is someone you have only met once.

Xia Shige dug her toes into the ground in embarrassment. Just as she was preparing her words in her mind, the door to the reception room was suddenly pushed open.

Zhou Ran rushed in excitedly with a lunch box in his hand, saying, "Grandpa, didn't you say you were going to see uncle? Why are you here..."

After seeing Xia Shige sitting in front of Mr. Zhou, he was slightly stunned and asked in surprise: "...Why are you here?"

The moment she saw Zhou Ran, Xia Shige was also stunned - she suddenly remembered something...

She slapped her forehead and said to Zhou Ran, "I almost forgot! Tang Shiqi is still in the emergency room!"
