Bai Kangyan glanced at the time: "Shall we go eat Sichuan food?"
Seeing that Bai Kangyan was in high spirits, she couldn't refuse, so she nodded and got into the car with him.
The two chose a hot pot restaurant that looked very popular, ordered their food, and then slowly began to eat.
Perhaps following Bai Kangyan's love for spicy food, Bai Qianmo has developed a particular fondness for hot pot since returning to China.
The father and daughter's cheeks were flushed from the spiciness. Bai Kangyan chuckled and picked up the kettle to pour Bai Qianmo a cup of water.
"My son and I ordered the extra spicy one, so we have to drink a lot of water, otherwise we'll easily get a sore throat in the dry autumn."
Bai Qianmo responded and obediently drank the water from her glass.
Bai Kangyan took out a cigarette to smoke, but after glancing at Bai Qianmo, he put it back in the cigarette pack.
"Qianmo, come home with me tonight. I know you like your grandpa and aunt, but you still have to live with your parents after all."
She was enjoying her meal, but when this matter was mentioned, Bai Qianmo's face turned cold.
Bai Kangyan sighed inwardly.
As he spent more time with Qianmo, he found that he was gradually able to figure out the girl's personality.
She wasn't ill-mannered, nor was she truly as aloof and indifferent as she appeared; she simply treated people differently based on who they were dealing with.
The old man and Xu Hualan like her, so she gets close to them, calling them "Grandpa" and "Auntie" repeatedly. Can this be called being ill-mannered?
But when she lived in Longxi Garden, not only did she never call out to Song Yan and Xi Ruo, but she never even called out to her own father, with whom she was relatively close.
The old man was right; they were the ones who first broke her heart, so naturally a sense of distance would form in her heart.
"Did Grandpa agree?"
“The old man is naturally very reluctant to let you go, and your aunt also said that this place is closer to the school. But Dad still wants you to go back to Longxiyuan to live. My company is not far from No. 1 Middle School. I will have the driver pick you up and drop you off every day after school.”
This way, he can have a chance to make amends to her, and Han Songyan can gradually accept her.
After all, she's his own daughter; how much hatred could there be?
Bai Qianmo frowned in thought; she had absolutely no desire to go back.
Living with the old man was much more comfortable, except for the annoying Bai Yitang.
But then he remembered that he still had things stored in Longxi Garden, and he needed them urgently right now.
After a moment's thought, he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, after you finish eating, go to Grandpa's and tell him."
Bai Kangyan was overjoyed.
After dinner, the father and daughter went to the old house together.
I heard they're going to bring Bai Qianmo back to Longxi Garden.
The old man tightened his grip on his cane, and a hint of worry appeared in Xu Hualan's eyes.
Despite the tense atmosphere at the Bai family gathering that day, Han Songyan showed no pity for Qianmo whatsoever; she actually wanted the girl to stay at the old house.
The old man and Xu Hualan shared the same idea.
“Qianmo’s school is relatively close to here, and there are many empty rooms in the old house. It’s not like I can’t afford to support her.” The old man’s words were tinged with refusal.
