he smiled kindly and patted Yan Qiaoqiao’s hair,

“e here, Qiaoqiao, stop eating for a moment and say hello to your aunt.”

Yan Qiaoqiao obediently raised her head, her left hand holding a knife and her right a fork,

“Auntie.”

“Say ‘sister.'” Zhao Yingjun whispered.

“Sister.”

“Haha, that’s more like it.” Zhao Yingjun laughed as she stood up and pinched Yan Qiaoqiao’s cheek,

“Since it’s our first meeting, I should have a gift for you…Oh, I have a few limited edition Rhine Cat Dolls in my car.

Let me fetch one for you, consider it a meeting gift.”

Zhao Yingjun always knew how to behave properly.

Therefore, she put on her coat, walked out of the private room, and went downstairs to get the Rhine Cat Dolls.

Bang.

The automatic door closed.

Inside the room, the old couple, Yan Qiaoqiao, and…

a turncoat dog (already defected), were left.

“Old Zhao…”

Yan Mei turned her head to look at Zhao Ruihai, hesitant to speak:

“So, what do we do about this?

Looking at Yingjun’s behavior, the girl certainly has nothing to do with her.

Should I try to get a strand of Yingjun’s hair and have another DNA test to confirm it?”

“Forget it.”

Zhao Ruihai closed his eyes,

“What does the result matter, whether it is or isn’t?

Could we possibly throw Yan Qiaoqiao away?

Even if it turns out to be a DNA misunderstanding in the end…

I’ll accept it.

As long as no one claims Yan Qianqian, we’ll raise her as our granddaughter.”

“What’s more important, feelings or DNA?

Although both are important, to force Yingjun, who is merely 25 years old, to accept the fact that she’s already a mother…

Is that fair?

Is it reasonable?

𝕟𝗈𝘃𝘨𝕠.co

I think it’s indeed too much to ask for.”

“Perhaps, both of us have realized…

that, unwittingly, we have still been hurting Yingjun.

Put yourself in her shoes for a moment.

What would you think if at 25, without being married or having dated, my father-in-law came with a teenager and told you that you were the parent?”

“I would definitely feel aggrieved!

It’s like a tall tale!”

Yan Mei answered briskly, but then had an epiphany and fell silent for a few seconds:

“Indeed…perhaps we’ve been too hasty, we shouldn’t have brought up such a direct and intense subject to Yingjun.

If we had picked a different setting, a different approach, let Yingjun get to know Qiaoqiao first, then introduced the topic of blood relations and paternity testing, it might have been easier to accept.”

“Yeah, you’re right.

We always think we’re innocent, that the issue with Qiaoqiao couldn’t possibly be our fault; we presumed it was Yingjun’s fault from the start.

But what if it really was our mistake?

Regardless, I think you’re right…”

“[Yingjun’s life hasn’t even begun yet, and we’re foisting such a big girl on her.

How is she supposed to date, marry, or fall in love in the future?

We can’t do this to Yingjun as parents.]”

“Let’s just slow things down, let Yingjun and Qiaoqiao spend more time together, perhaps slowly their affection will grow stronger than ours!

By then, there might be no need for us to rush into claiming our granddaughter; Yingjun might even be more anxious than us to acknowledge her as her daughter!”

“So let’s drop the hair idea, alright?

If Yingjun finds out, she will surely feel we still suspect her, that we don’t trust her…

and it will inevitably hurt her again.”

Yan Mei had barely finished speaking.

Next to her, Yan Qiaoqiao plucked a long black hair from Dandelion VV’s fur,

“Hair.”

She always spoke concisely and in an even tone; the fewer words she used, the more significant the matter.

“…” “…”

Zhao Ruihai and Yan Mei looked at each other in dismay.

Finally,

Yan Mei still took the strand of hair, twirled it around her finger, and put it in her pocket,

“Cough, well…

it doesn’t hurt to check, right?

We just won’t tell Yingjun, will we?”

“You…”

Zhao Ruihai pointed at Yan Mei, half laughing and half crying,

“Go ahead and check if you want, but I’ve already made myself clear.

[Yan Qiaoqiao is my granddaughter, if no one wants her, I do; if no one raises her, I will.]”

“Who her mother or father is doesn’t matter to me at all, I don’t care.

Even if she really did spring out of a stone with no father, no mother, she has a grandpa!

And grandpa will protect her for her whole life!”

“Grandpa.”

Yan Qiaoqiao promptly took over the conversation, turning to look at Zhao Ruihai.

“Eh~ haha.”

Zhao Ruihai smiled tenderly,

“What is it, Qiaoqiao?”

Yan Qiaoqiao pointed to her empty steak plate,

“I’m not full.”

…

Shortly after, Zhao Yingjun returned with three Rhine Cat Dolls for Yan Qiaoqiao.

Yan Qiaoqiao liked them very much.

VV liked them too.

Both girl and dog played happily together.

Zhao Ruihai, Yan Mei, and Zhao Yingjun all tacitly avoided bringing up the recent unpleasant subjects.

The elderly couple had e to realize that a melon forced off its vine is not sweet.

Besides, could they really expect Zhao Yingjun, unmarried and in love at 25, to raise a daughter?

Since they were all family and they both liked Yan Qiaoqiao so much, they might as well raise her themselves for now.

Later, when Yingjun was less angry, they could gradually cultivate her relationship with Qiaoqiao.

The latter half of the meal was warm, pleasant, and joyful.

The parents didn’t hurry the marriage,

There were children and a dog,

The elderly were healthy, the young had successful careers;

This was probably the best family portrait, the best reunion dinner.

The only flaw was…

“V?”

The Pomeranian VV, which had been lying on Yan Qiaoqiao’s lap, seemed to sense that someone was missing from the room.

If he could sit here too, the room would be even more filled with joy.

Yes, that man.

The one with a very nice smell.
