Zhu Qinghao was unaware of Chen Liang's thoughts at that moment, because she was feeling a little nervous about seeing her family.
This was the first time in her two lifetimes that she had experienced the phrase "feeling apprehensive upon approaching home," and now she felt even more apprehensive upon approaching her "relatives."
Before, all I was thinking about was getting home quickly, closing the door and getting rid of Liu Yansong's entanglement. At that time, I didn't realize that I was so uneasy.
Now that she was inside the house and about to see her family, she suddenly panicked.
She was terrified. She was afraid that she wouldn't see her family members alive and well, afraid that she couldn't change their fate in their previous life and would still be a wandering ghost, watching them die tragically one by one.
Chen Liang, who was standing next to her, immediately noticed that something was wrong with her.
"well?"
Zhu Qinghao snapped out of her daze and looked at the old man who had watched her grow up. His eyes were filled with obvious concern, which greatly encouraged her.
In his previous life, Chen Liang was sent down to the countryside with the Zhu family and helped them with everything. Zhu Huaichuan tried to get rid of him several times but couldn't.
Finally, in order to protect his pregnant cousin from being humiliated, he died a few days after arriving in the countryside, forever resting in the cold soil of Northeast China.
And now, he is still standing alive in front of Zhu Qinghao, caring for her just like he did a long, long time ago, slowly soothing the panic deep in her heart.
"Grandpa Chen, I'm fine. I just... missed you all."
As soon as he finished speaking, a few tears rolled down his cheeks like broken beads, making Chen Liang's heart ache.
The child has been wronged.
So he stepped forward, imagining picking her up and letting her sit on his shoulders like when they were little. But when he saw the graceful Zhu Qinghao standing there, he smiled, stopped, and instead lovingly patted the top of her head.
"We're doing well, and we'll definitely live a peaceful and joyful life."
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Qinghao's tears flowed even more profusely.
However, she quickly wiped away her tears and calmed herself down.
"Grandpa Chen, are my parents back yet? And my aunt and cousin-in-law, are they both here?"
Chen Liang smiled kindly:
"Everyone's here today. Come on in, we'll probably be serving dinner soon. Aunt Liu has made a lot of your favorite dishes."
"Okay, I'll go right away, thank you Grandpa Chen!"
Upon entering the house, Zhu Qinghao immediately saw Old Master Zhu Huaichuan and Old Madam Zhu sitting in the living room, waiting for her to return.
Suppressing the soreness in her throat, she tried her best to greet the two elders naturally, as usual.
"Grandpa, Grandma, I'm back!"
"You're back safely? Are you tired? Did those naughty kids bother you today?"
Grandpa Zhu sat there with a smile, listening to his wife's question and looking at Zhu Qinghao, who clearly wanted to ask the same question.
"I'm not tired, my students are all very well-behaved."
Fearing that she would burst into tears if she continued talking, Zhu Qinghao quickly made an excuse, fled the scene, and returned to her room.
