In one afternoon, Doris still didn't go to the kindergarten to pick up Nadia. This time, it was because Jay didn't want her to.
"My parents want to see you," said Jay.
It was not the first time that Jay mentioned it, but the thought of visiting his parents still made her nervous.
Doris had been making up excuses not to go.
But today, no excuses wouldn't work.
Because it was his grandfather's birthday.
Her eyes were scanning the clothes in front of her.
Thought it was taking her forever to pick which one to wear, Jay didn't seem to mind the time. He just calmly sat on the couch with his legs crossed, keeping himself entertained with his phone.
"What did Nancy do this time? She is on the headline again. This time, she was seen with a man named Jerome." Who is he?" Even though he asked, he didn't seem really interested.
"Her classmate." The cheongsam she was wearing did not suit her daring personality.
Every step she took was like falling.
"Alas, Charles will become preoccupied again." After a while, he tossed the
a boy.
So, now he was looking at Stoney with hostility.
"I'm in college now!" Sarah scoffed.
"Grandpa, we are just classmates. Nothing happened yet." The memories of Jay beating him up before was still haunting him.
He stammered as he was now talking to Sarah's grandfather.
"Well, you'd better keep a distance. You two are still young!" Landon Fang warned.
"Dad, the guests are all here. Don't chat with the children. Come here!" said Eric, Jay's father. When his attention was turned to someone else, Stoney sighed in relief.
"Okay, okay. Why hasn't Jay come yet?" He was still worried about his only grandson.
As soon as he finished his sentence, a sweet female voice reached his ears. "Grandpa, happy birthday!"
Smiling, Lucy Xia came over and greeted Landon.
"Hey, Lucy, how are you? I haven't seen you in a while. You have grown up," Landon Fang said while staring at her.
"Yeah, time flies, Mr. Fang!" It was Lucy's father who responded.
"Exactly! I am now eighty years old." Landon Fang laughed together with them.
