Chapter 183: The Awesome Sister (2)_1
"Hey, you girl, have you forgotten about your Godpa Deng? You haven’t come to see me in a while," Old Deng said as his smile widened upon seeing Situ Xin. His tone became much gentler as he spoke.
Those familiar with Old Deng were surprised by this; the fact that Situ Xin considered Old Deng as her honorary grandfather was not well known. Hence, the scene unfolding in front of them sparked silent astonishment and speculation about when the little princess of the Situ and Loo Families became so familiar with Old Deng.
"Not at all, I knew that you’ve been busy lately. Besides, I haven’t forgotten to bring over some good things for you and Grandma Deng," Situ Xin replied, her heart recognizing Old Deng as her godfather after such a long time. She could see that Old Deng’s family truly cared for her. Both Old Deng and Grandma Deng doted on Situ Xin no less than her own grandparents did.
"Your Grandma Deng already told me about it," Old Deng said as he patted Situ Xin’s hair affectionately. "But, you girl, I had no idea you could play the piano so well. Tell me, is there anything you can’t do?"
After hearing Old Deng’s words, Situ Xin touched her chin, pretending to ponder for a moment before replying, "Looks like there really isn’t anything I can’t do."
Old Master Yu saw that everyone was gathered around and said, "Let’s not crowd here. Let Old Deng sit down and have a rest."
Due to Old Deng’s arrival, Situ Xin had no choice but to sit at the main table, right beside Old Deng. Old Master Liu, sitting at the same table, couldn’t help but feel his heart sinking as he watched every move between Old Deng and Situ Xin. He knew that what happened today with his granddaughter would certainly be remembered by Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo, who would likely put obstacles in the Liu Family’s way in the future. However, if Old Deng were to target the Liu Family as well, then they would truly have no salvation.
Apart from the small incident at the beginning with Liu Qianxue and Zhang Siya, Old Master Yu’s birthday celebration generally went smoothly.
On the same night the celebration ended, several families within the Capital Military Region and government compound held lengthy meetings behind closed doors, particularly the Liu Family.
As soon as Old Master Liu stepped out of the restaurant, his expression turned grave. Upon returning home, he bellowed, "Liu Qianxue, stand right here."
Startled by Old Master Liu’s shout, Liu Qianxue immediately burst into tears.
