Fu Jingyao felt a lump in his throat, unable to swallow it, and he held his phone motionless.
Lin Xi straightened her clothes and asked curiously, "Who was it? Why didn't you answer?"
Fu Jingyao pinched the bridge of his nose. "Grandpa."
Lin Xi immediately sat up. "Grandpa and Grandma have been traveling abroad for so long, you should pick them up right away."
"Okay, whatever you say." Fu Jingyao softened his voice, put his arm around her shoulder, and pulled her into his embrace.
Lin Xi was taken aback. "What are you doing? Grandpa and Grandma are on the other end of the phone."
