Grandpa Long froze, wondering if he was hallucinating. He dared not move, afraid of breaking this beautiful moment.
Even if it's just auditory hallucination, at least I can still hear that girl's voice, which gives me some psychological comfort.
Maybe I'm missing that girl too much, and it's made me numb!
well!
Let's get some rest early; we'll see you tomorrow!
Su Nanxi was very puzzled. Why did the old man slowly close his eyes when he heard her voice? Was her voice so hypnotic and so easy to fall asleep?
Could it be that this old man thinks he's dreaming, or that he's hallucinating?
So I started hypnotizing myself again, telling myself not to think so much and to get some rest?
She almost burst out laughing; she was so helpless!
Her voice even has a hypnotic effect; it's really becoming more and more valuable!
When her father heard her voice, he was incredibly excited and couldn't stop talking. He wanted her to keep talking, and anyone who didn't know better would think her voice was incredibly beautiful!
But with this old man, it was the opposite!
Sigh!
She didn't even know whether she should continue talking!
Since everyone's here, we can't just go back without doing anything, we should say a few more words!
It doesn't matter if it's just a few minutes, and it's okay to rest a little later, since the old man hasn't slept yet anyway!
"Grandfather, it's me, Xixi! Didn't you want to see me? Why are you closing your eyes and refusing to see me now that I've come? Did I come at the wrong time? Then I'd better leave!"
Su Nanxi sighed, her voice low and somber, revealing a hint of disappointment.
The old man jolted awake and suddenly opened his eyes; he wasn't hallucinating!
I really heard Xixi's voice, there's no mistake!
Fearing that Su Nanxi would really leave, the old man hurriedly lifted the curtain, trying to get up, calling out, "Xixi, don't go!"
Whether it's true or false, let's keep the person here first!
Su Nanxi didn't really want to leave; she just wanted to get the old man's attention.
Seeing that the old man was having difficulty getting up, she went over, helped him up, and then sat him down on a stool.
The old man opened his eyes wide and scanned Su Nanxi several times. After confirming that she was right, the usually serious man suddenly burst into tears.
This completely baffled Su Nanxi, leaving her at a loss. This was quite different from what she had expected!
The old man was a veteran of the battlefield, a general, and he was very strong-willed. He rarely shed tears, but in front of her, he was now crying his heart out.
well!
She's become the sinner; she made the old man cry!
However, if you feel suppressed, crying will make you feel much better!
The same was true for Marquis Anping. After crying, he was in much better shape, figured out many things, and his mindset improved. The worry on his face disappeared.
Su Nanxi waited quietly for the old man to finish crying, giving him some time to grieve.
"Xixi! Where did you go? How could you suddenly disappear? We've been searching for you so desperately! We didn't want to believe you were gone! Now that you're alright, I'm relieved! Your grandfather is getting old and can't bear to see you suffer!"
The old man stopped crying and started wiping away his tears while speaking, but even he himself felt that what he said was somewhat incoherent.
He didn't know what to say, so he just rambled on about whatever came to mind, and he couldn't stop, for fear that once the air quieted down, everything would be an illusion!
Su Nanxi smiled slightly and said, "Grandfather, this is a long story, so let me make it short. I was framed and seriously injured. Someone tricked me into joining the exiles and I ended up in the southernmost border region. Perhaps it was my fate, or perhaps I was just lucky, but I survived and was taken in by a farmer's family. I didn't suffer much hardship! I've been in the capital for a while now, but for various reasons, I haven't come to see you. It was my fault!"
She spoke so casually, as if she were telling someone else's story, not her own, and didn't seem to find it terrifying at all!
Grandpa Long was heartbroken after hearing this. What must he have gone through to be able to talk about his experiences so casually!
Is that something an ordinary person could endure?
A pampered young lady who had never suffered any hardship before was seriously injured. Those people were too vicious to do such a thing!
Don't let him know who did it, or he'll dig up their ancestral graves and show those old fogies how heavy the sins of their descendants are!
How dare they lie there so comfortably and enjoy themselves!
No wonder Xixi's personality has changed. Someone who has died once is definitely not as innocent and ignorant as before!
"Xixi, tell your grandfather who framed you. If you don't know, your grandfather will investigate and make those people pay a heavy price!"
As Grandpa Long spoke, his eyes reddened, and he became frighteningly serious!
They've never done anything wrong; they've always served the people. It's unbelievable that while they're protecting the country, some people want to destroy their family!
Then don't blame him for being impolite!
Although he has retired and is no longer a general, he is not someone to be trifled with!
“Grandfather, this matter involves many people. The root cause is that Su Mingyue, the concubine's daughter of the Marquis's family, wants to become the Crown Prince's wife, so she wants to steal my marriage. In the end, she came up with a plan to make me disappear! Grandfather, don't get agitated! She is just a concubine's daughter and she can't do it. She has people behind her, and they are willing to work for her! The person who asked to meet you tomorrow is the person behind Su Mingyue. You don't need to go!”
Su Nanxi quickly went over to help Grandpa Long catch his breath, afraid that if he couldn't breathe properly, it would be a big problem.
Fortunately, Mr. Long had experienced many ups and downs and quickly recovered.
Upon hearing that Su Nanxi was not the one who had asked him to meet tomorrow, his face turned as black as ink.
Very well, they've all schemed against him!
Suddenly realizing something, she asked anxiously, "Then aren't you in danger? That person deliberately lured you out!"
Su Nanxi smiled and gently shook her head. "Grandfather, don't worry! I'm not in any danger. He can't hurt me! I know that man did it on purpose, just to test me and find out where I am so he can silence me again! But he doesn't have time to worry about me right now, so don't worry!"
After thinking for a moment, he added, "That person is Geng Yuepeng, the owner of Yanyu Tower. He is a ruthless, narrow-minded, and vengeful man. Grandfather, please keep an eye on him!"
Su Nanxi knew that Geng Yuepeng would definitely come again when he had time, so it was better to lay everything out in the open and let the old man be more careful, since she couldn't always be on guard!
Grandpa Long nodded, feeling both gratified and heartbroken. "I'm not going anywhere tomorrow! My Xixi has grown up and become so capable! But don't be impulsive, let's discuss this properly!"
"I'll listen to my maternal grandfather!"
