Chapter 1310 Stormy Nights

Chapter 1310 Stormy Nights

Honestly speaking, Xia Zhao really thought his grandfather treated him very well. Yes, he seemed a bit perfunctory and a bit distant too but that was just how he was. It didn't mean he didn't love his grandson but it was just his nature. In fact, he was only able to show his feelings to Grandmother Xia. Apart from her, he wasn't very good at showing affection.

That's why Xia Zhao was used to it. But he was still able to understand his grandfather and he knew that grandfather loved him. "Ignore him," said Grandmother Xia to Mu Chenyan. "Don't mind your Grandpa. He is old and has gone senile too."

Mu Chenyan pursed her lips to suppress her laughter. This comment was very unexpected but when she looked at Grandfather Xia's expression, she found it rather cute. He was still looking at his wife with a doting look in his eyes which even he didn't seem to notice.

"Also, don't mind our useless talk either. We come from perilous times. Back then a lot of people had their love stories written on the war field. And a lot more stories ended there too."

"I admire people from that time," said Mu Chenyan. "They were brave enough to fight for their country without expecting anything in return. You didn't have to be a soldier to fight for your country. You could do it just to protect your family and friends from the enemies. The courage of people from that time is admirable."

Grandmother Xia gave her a small smile, "You are also very admirable."

"I am?"

"You're selfless, responsible, and very loyal. These traits alone are enough to make you an admirable person. And someone worthy of looking up to."

Mu Chenyan bit her lip, "You really know a lot about me." This content has its origins in n0v£lbin★

"I think we know enough," said Grandmother Xia.

Grandmother Xia sighed, "Indeed. I challenged myself to make you smile like me. In the end, you taught me not to smile like you. What a tragedy of my life. If my family hadn't been lost in the war, they would have never let me get together with you. Your face alone would scare them away."

Mu Chenyan noticed them whispering to each other in a low voice and smiled at Xia Zhao, "They have a very good relationship."

"I know," he answered. "I have always been envious of their relationship."

"They must have never fought."

"Who said that? They fight all the time. Grandmother says fighting makes the relationship stronger. Because only when you're willing to coax each other, do you know for sure that the love is still alive. And that the person is worth the effort."

"Are you telling me to fight more with you?" asked Mu Chenyan as she raised her brows at him.

"As if we have any less fights now," he responded. "You're already tired?"

"No. No way. I'll never get tired. I never even got tired of my boring life. Why would I get bored with a storm like you?"

"Because not everyone likes stormy nights."

"But I do," he said seriously. "I love stormy nights way too much."

Seeing the intensity in his eyes, Mu Chenyan smiled to herself and avoided looking into his eyes that seemed to be burning right now.
