Grandma chuckled and said, "The feelings of elders are all the same. They hope to see the younger generation live a happy life."
Xia Xi rubbed the back of her grandmother's hand, and a faint smile curved her lips: "I am very happy now. If you take care of your health, I will be even happier."
Grandma shook her head from side to side, her silver hair a little messy. "That's different. Grandma can't be with you for long, and your mom can't be with you forever. Before I close my eyes, I want to see someone you can rely on by your side. That person understands your feelings and can accompany you until old age, comfort you when you are sad and frustrated, and take care of you when you are sick and bedridden. Do you understand?"
"Didn't grandma live well with her daughter back then?"
"Xixi, your situation is different from grandma's. Back then, I only had to take care of myself and my daughter, but you have a much heavier burden on your shoulders." Grandma wiped her eyes and said earnestly, "You have a mother to support and children to take care of. Although Xiaoxuan has started her own family, she's in poor health and you still have to worry about her. If Xiaoyue doesn't have a good life when she gets out, how could you sit back and watch? You're too tired. Grandma can only feel at ease if someone helps share the burden with you."
Grandma spoke so sincerely that Xia Xi could no longer say anything sarcastic.
She promised her grandmother: "If I meet the right person in the future, I will consider it."

The nanny does not live at home and is only responsible for cleaning and cooking. She said goodbye to Xu Yanfeng and left first.
The dishes on the table were all cold, and Xu Yanfeng didn't go to eat. He sat alone in the single sofa chair by the window, with his elbows resting on the armrest of the sofa, his forehead supported by the back of his hand, and his eyes closed in thought.
Grandma had said the child was his, and she hadn't lied to him. But he remembered the two paternity test reports. Ling Yan had someone tamper with the first one, but she later came back to him and told him it was real and she hadn't changed it. He later redid the report, and it came back with the same result.
The report shows that he and Xia Xi's child are not biological children.
Xu Yanfeng didn't know where the mistake was.
Guan He supervised the entire process of the second report, so there was no way there would be any mistakes.
At that time in the ward, he was about to say a few more words to his grandmother, but his grandmother asked him to leave after saying "Ziheng is your child". She refused to reveal any more and said that Xia Xi would be back soon.
