Back then, she insisted on marrying Dongfang Yu, he opposed it, but couldn’t change her mind, so he reluctantly agreed.

Therefore, she must have been wronged by Dongfang Yu in some way.

Mainly because, within the year of her marriage to Hai Xiaotang, the grievances she had suffered were almost entirely because of Dongfang Yu.

She didn’t want to say much about it, but he couldn’t just turn a blind eye, so he planned to help them out.

The old man had the servants prepare a lavish dinner.

When Hai Xiaotang saw the feast on the table, her mouth watered, “Grandpa, can we start eating now? I’m really hungry.”

The old man sat in the main seat and chuckled, “No rush, we’re waiting for one more person.”

“Who?” Hai Xiaotang asked, puzzled.

As soon as she finished speaking, the servant announced, “Master, Young Master Dongfang is here.”

Hai Xiaotang was taken aback!

She looked over and saw Dongfang Yu walk in, tall and stately in a handcrafted suit.

Dongfang Yu’s gaze merely skimmed over her.

He turned to his grandfather, “Grandpa, how have you been feeling recently? I brought some health supplements, see if you like them.”

The old man laughed, “Of course I like them, anything you give me is welcome. Come sit down, it’s just about time for dinner.”

Dongfang Yu sat across from Hai Xiaotang.

Hai Xiaotang finally understood everything, Dongfang Yu was summoned by her grandfather.

The old man must want to foster their feelings for each other… but she doesn’t want that!

“What’s going on between you two? Xiaotang, did you upset Ayu (nickname for Dongfang Yu)? You don’t even dare speak to him,” the old man teased.

Hai Xiaotang laughed, “Grandpa, I’m just so hungry now, I just want to eat. Once I’m full and warm, I’ll have energy for other thoughts.”

“Ha ha, you’re a cheeky one,” the old man laughed heartily, “Alright, everyone start eating. It’s rare for both of you to join me for dinner, so eat a lot, okay?”

“Grandpa, you also need to eat a lot.” Hai Xiaotang quickly helped him with his food, which made him very pleased.

The entire meal was filled with lively conversation.

Hai Xiaotang was busy chatting and laughing with grandpa, and grandpa was busy discussing issues with Dongfang Yu.

The entire table seemed festive, yet had a subtly odd vibe.

Because Hai Xiaotang and Dongfang Yu didn’t have any dialogue.

After dinner, Dongfang Yu planned to leave, “Grandpa, I still have some matters to attend to, I’ll visit you again another day.”

The old man looked puzzled, “It’s so late, do you still have unfinished work?”

“Yes, I need to deal with some documents.”

“Alright, you can go. It’s getting late. You can come and visit again some other day.”

“Grandpa…” Hai Xiaotang hesitated, “I’ll stay here tonight, keep you company.”

She didn’t want to go home, much less share the roof with Dongfang Yu.

Although she didn’t hate him, she didn’t want to face him either.

She still couldn’t treat him like a stranger without any resentment.

His presence still disturbed her feelings, not because there was still love, but because she couldn’t remain as calm as a tranquil lake.

She didn’t want to feel like this…

The old man raised his eyebrows, “I can tell something’s wrong between you two. Speak up, what’s going on?”

Hai Xiaotang hurriedly defended herself, “Nothing at all!”

“Really? Why aren’t you two going home together then? Aren’t you husband and wife?” Most importantly, the old Xiaotang used to cling to Dongfang Yu like a little tail.
