Ye Chien's gaze swept across his face, but she did not call him "Brother" immediately.
The Devil King was her team leader during her training. She had been scolded, yelled at, and scolded by him. The cold image of the Devil King had long been engraved in her mind. Suddenly calling him "Brother" made her feel indescribably awkward.
The Old Master, who was immersed in grief, noticed Ye Chien's slight pause. The clear-minded old man understood everything, but he could not say it. He could not force his granddaughter, who had only returned home after 20 years, to acknowledge him as her father.
He could not, and did not dare to.
Today, she had already given him a huge surprise by calling him "Grandpa". Now, he needed time to adjust their relationship.
"Good child, the Fu family was not kind enough to let your mother suffer. It was all our fault, all our fault …" The Old Master did not want his granddaughter, who had finally returned home, to feel sad. With a solemn expression on his deeply wrinkled face, he said to Ye Chien, "A mistake is a mistake. No matter how much time has passed, this mistake must be acknowledged!"
Although the past was in the past, the damage left behind would not disappear because of it. Mistakes must be corrected, and they must be corrected properly!
Ye Chien gently shook his head and comforted the old man, "I know what happened back then. Grandpa, you were not wrong. My mother was not wrong either. And … my father was not wrong either. None of you were wrong. The mistake was that the timing was not right. The mistake was that fate made a fool of us. "
"Don't worry, I really don't have any resentment. In the past, to be honest, I did hate, but now I don't. I know that you have always been looking for my mother. I know that my grandmother and aunt still miss my mother when they passed away. I also know that my father did not remarry because of my mother. What else do I have to hate? "
"No, really no. It's not that you don't want my mother and me, it's just that we missed each other … I don't hate, I only feel happy now. I never thought that I would have a grandfather, a father, and a family whose blood is thicker than water. I really never thought … but now I have them all. I really don't have any hatred, no resentment, only happiness. Grandpa, I am happy, very, very happy. "
As Ye Chien spoke, the tears that he had tried so hard to stop started flowing again.
Two lifetimes. She had used two lifetimes to have a close relative whose blood was thicker than water. Only then did she have a family that she truly loved. This time, the tears that flowed down her face were no longer filled with sadness. Instead, they were filled with genuine joy.
She was really, really happy!
When she cried, the old man could not control the grief in his heart. His wise eyes, which had seen the world through hardships, were filled with tears. He held Ye Chien's hand tightly and said in a trembling voice, "Good child, good child, Grandpa thanks you, Grandpa thanks you."
She was kind and righteous. It was all thanks to her mother's good upbringing that he was able to meet his only granddaughter. In the future, when he was in the underworld, he could happily tell the old woman that she had a good granddaughter, a very, very good granddaughter!
The old man and the young woman started crying again. They could not stop crying at all. Li Jinnian gave Xia Jinyuan a look, indicating for him to comfort Ye Chien. He then advised the old man, "Grandpa, if you continue crying, I will have to call the doctor."
On the other side, Xia Jinyuan gently comforted Ye Chien, "The old man's health is not good. Your crying will make him even sadder. Little fox, today is a good day. Let's not cry so much. We should smile more."
