Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Joke Was Overheard



How could Su Xiaoxiao be beaten by Lin Wanhui? But she couldn't show her arrogant side. She looked at Nangong Yi with a wronged expression, and her little mouth pouted at this moment.

"It's all your fault. You kept flirting with that crazy woman Su Xiaoyue, and now even her mother is blaming me."

"..."

Nangong Yi's lips twitched slightly, but he was too lazy to argue with her in front of his grandfather. He didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that Su Xiaoxiao was deliberately making trouble for him.

Shan Jiaxi had been carefully observing Su Xiaoxiao's behavior, and he found that her current actions seemed somewhat familiar.

"Nangong Yi, why aren't you saying anything? You're the one who caused this mess!"

"Xiaoxiao, let's not talk about the past anymore. You and Yi'er are husband and wife now. Grandpa hopes that you can both give each other a chance to get to know each other again."

Nangong Cang glanced at the two of them and left the table early after finishing his dinner.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect to be criticized by Nangong Cang in public. She knew she was being unreasonable, but she still pouted dejectedly.

She silently put down her chopsticks and bowl, without even glancing at Nangong Yi, and got up to leave the table.

If she hadn't suddenly become 'Su Xiaoxiao', she would have had no idea that Nangong Cang cared so much about her grandfather.

In fact, in order to cure her grandfather's stroke and paralysis, she specifically asked Nangong Yi to find Huangfu Junhao for help.

"grandfather!"

When Su Xiaoxiao saw Nangong Cang standing in the courtyard, she quickly ran over and solemnly said "I'm sorry" to him.

"Silly child, don't be so distant with your grandpa." Nangong Cang thought she was apologizing for what happened at the dinner table earlier, and his heart softened immediately.

"Xiaoxiao, you are now Yi'er's wife. Grandpa hopes you will stop being so childish. As for the past, let's not bring it up again."

"Um."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. Looking at Nangong Cang's overly serious expression, she asked cautiously, "Grandpa, Aunt Su said that the eldest daughter of the Su family and Nangong Yi seemed to have a relationship. Can I ask about this?"

After glancing at her, Nangong Cang said, "Xiaoxiao is a very good child, but unfortunately, she has a short life. As for her and Yi'er, it was all wishful thinking on the part of her grandfather and me. However, I've met that child a few times; she looks gentle and frail, but she's incredibly stubborn..."

Su Xiaoxiao noticed that when Nangong Cang talked about her, there was a deep sense of regret and reluctance in his eyes.

But what has already happened cannot be changed by anyone.

Su Xiaoxiao walked with Nangong Cang in the courtyard for a while. This was the first time she had heard about her grandfather's interesting stories from him.

It turns out that the two elderly people would privately boast about their grandson and granddaughter, and when they realized they couldn't make the marriage happen, they couldn't help but feel sorry for each other.

"Grandpa, Xiaoxiao will be filial to you from now on."

"Grandpa only hopes that you and Yi'er can put aside your past grievances and stop sleeping in separate rooms."

"I...we didn't sleep in separate rooms."

After Nangong Cang revealed her 'secret,' Su Xiaoxiao almost bit her tongue, and her expression became tense.

"Grandpa, don't worry, Nangong Yi and I will make sure you can hold your great-grandson soon."

Su Xiaoxiao's boastful remark happened to fall into Nangong Yi's ears.

He watched the two chatting and laughing, and the coldness on his face appeared even more aloof in the moonlight.
