Chapter 393 Tokens (5)_1
"Take an early rest, you’ve had a long day." The old man’s thousand words of concern translated into a single caring reminder.
"Alright." Lin Ziyin responded, fully aware of her family’s concern and puzzlement about her relationship with Chu Suifeng. Truthfully, Chu Suifeng’s erratic behavior also presented her with quite a shock. Moreover, was his concern for her based on their mutual business interests, or had he seen something he could exploit?
She was unsure herself, and thus lacked the energy to explain the situation to her family. Luckily, her grandfather didn’t press her any further. Ziyin quickly seized the opportunity to retire, taking her maid with her as her grandfather suggested.
"Grandfather?" After Ziyin had left, Zige looked at their grandfather with a plaintive gaze.
"She’s smarter than all of you, and knows what she should and shouldn’t do." The old man stood up, his hands clasped behind his back, and left, leaving them all grappling with his enigmatic statement.
"Grandfather’s right, don’t worry about it unnecessarily. Ziyin is smarter than anyone else, if she has not shared much, likely there’s not much to say yet. Take care of yourself." Wu Dayou comforted Zige, reading her unsettled expression.
"What do you mean by unnecessarily worrying? She’s my little sister." Zige’s temper, erratic as expected her during pregnancy, flared at Wu Dayou’s words.
"Dayou’s right, don’t lose your temper. Watch your baby." Although Lin Changshu was also worried, he remained composed. As Wu Dayou was too supportive of Zige, unable to even mildly criticize her or make stern comments, Changshu, being her elder brother, felt the need to be the more responsible one.
