Chapter 31: Fortunate accident
"Yes of course, dear. They always come to greet me whenever I come outside. Is there a problem?"
While Ma Zhilan was answering, Jia put two and two together and slowly connected the dots as to what could have happened.
She smiled. "Nothing, Mam. We will walk you back."
Her gaze fell on Mingshen, who looked unfazed by this particular fact.
As they reached home, the door already opened before Ma Zhilan rang the bell and a little girl hopped out. "Grandma!"
She jumped to hug Ma Zhilan. "I missed you! You were out for so long," she complained.
"Aish, I missed you too my dear," she lovingly ruffled her head. "Did you have fun at your friend's house?"
"A lot!" She cheered up and giggled. "We played so much and I won all of the games!"
"Really now?" She cocked her brow.
She sheepishly grinned. "N-not all of them but I lost only two games!"
"Good, good. My Juan is so talented," her gaze held pride.
