Hmph, this brat is not cute at all.
"How's your practice of what I had you do going?"
Fu Weidong proudly puffed out his chest; of course, he had practiced very well.
Shi Lingheng gave that smug little forehead a tap without any hesitation.
Shi's father and mother immediately glared at him, quickly pulled Fu Weidong into their arms, and then said seriously to Fan Xiaofan, "Look at him, he's such a grown man, yet he's bullying a child... He's not like a man at all."
He looked exactly like he was complaining.
Shi Lingheng immediately dropped the cold demeanor he had shown when facing Fu Weidong. His eyes drooped slightly, and he looked at Fan Xiaofan with a pitiful expression.
Fan Xiaofan looked at him with a smile, while Shi Lingheng shook his head helplessly.
After finishing his meal, Shi Lingheng took the initiative to say, "Grandpa and Grandma, Xiaofan and I have some things to discuss, and I'm afraid we'll need to borrow some of her time."
Grandma Fan remained silent, while Grandpa Fan, fiddling with the boat in his hand, waved his hand and said, "You two go and talk about serious matters."
They had also heard the recent news that Shi Wen had been arrested and the truth about Shi Lingyun's death had been reported. So now that Shi Lingheng was looking for Fan Xiaofan, there must be some serious business to discuss.
Instead of dwelling on the fact that Shi Lingheng had taken her granddaughter upstairs, which was causing her so much distress, Grandma Fan decided to clear her head and talk to Shi's parents.
When Shi Lingyun's matter was brought up, it was no longer like a wound that could not be reopened. When Shi's father and mother brought it up again, they no longer lost control of their emotions. Instead, they were able to calmly express that Shi Wenye deserved what he got.
Slightly saddened, he patted Fu Weidong's head. Fu Weidong was sitting to the side, engrossed in eating an apple, completely unaware that he was talking about his father.
Grandma Fan patted Shi's mother's hand and said, "Everything is moving in a good direction, isn't it?"
Shi's mother nodded. "Isn't that right?"
Dwelling on grief will only cause pain to loved ones and joy to enemies. What family members need to do is stand up, avenge their son, and live well, carrying his hopes and dreams.
Fu Weidong would occasionally look up and listen curiously to the elders talking, and sometimes he would drift off into thought about how wicked Shi Lingheng, that big bad wolf, was upstairs.
Upstairs, Shi Lingheng and Fan Xiaofan were also talking: "We can't touch the person behind this yet, as there are many people involved. If we don't have your help, we'll probably have to alert the Fang family if we want to take action against Shi Wenye."
Fan Xiaofan looked up at Shi Lingheng, who smiled gently: "I'm telling you this because you have to be careful when you meet people like the Fang family, who are all smiles and tigers. They always put on a good show, but who knows what they're scheming behind the scenes?"
"And they know I like you."
Shi Lingheng's sudden remark made Fan Xiaofan instinctively want to clutch her heart. My god, how did he develop such a skill of flirting without even realizing it?
"I will absolutely not give them the chance to hurt you, but I'm still afraid of even the slightest chance of being hurt."
Therefore, it is important to specifically inform Fan Xiaofan so that he can remain vigilant when encountering the Fang family.
"I may have to leave for a while..."
Shi Lingheng looked at Fan Xiaofan with a somewhat eager gaze, as if hoping to hear something from her. Fan Xiaofan probably noticed this, but in the end, she just smiled and said, "Then have a safe journey..."
"You know that's not what I want to hear..."
The man slowly leaned slightly towards Fan Xiaofan.
