Chapter 187 Old Deng’s Home (2)_1
"Yeah, Grandma Deng won’t be shy with you." Old Lady Deng answered, then opened another bag, took a deep breath, and said, "Xiao Xin, where did you get this scented tea from? It smells so good, far better than the one I asked someone to buy before."
The things Old Lady Deng had people buy were never inferior—they were all premium goods. But how could those premium goods compare to the items from Situ Xin’s space? "Xiao Xin, just smelling this scented tea makes me feel more spirited."
Upon hearing his wife speak like this and recalling what Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo had told him about Situ Xin’s master along with the gifts Situ Xin occasionally brought him, Old Deng knew that whatever Situ Xin gave to his wife, it must be extraordinary.
"Xiao Xin, you’re playing favorites now. How come you’ve prepared a gift for your Grandma Deng, but what about your Grandpa Deng? What’s my gift?" Old Deng shamelessly asked Situ Xin for a gift. His action made the security guard who had followed him for many years gape in astonishment, unable to believe what he was seeing.
When had he ever seen Old Deng asking for anything? Usually, it was others who were eager to present gifts to Old Deng.
"Hmph, nothing for you, since you were not looking forward to my visit," Situ Xin replied with a pout.
"Oh dear, but I love to joke with you. I’m so happy when you visit," Old Deng said, now devoid of his usual authoritative demeanor, instead taking on the persona of an amiable grandfather.
Old Deng’s change in behavior did not surprise Old Lady Deng; she just watched the old man and the young girl bantering with a smiling face, feeling very content. Such a scene had never occurred in the Deng Family; usually, the younger members were extremely cautious around the two elders, treating them with the utmost respect. But as respectful as they were, it made the elderly couple quite unhappy at heart.
