Gu Dai continued, “Grandpa, in my heart, I’ve already considered you as my real grandpa. There’s no need for us to go through any unnecessary formalities.”
Song An understood her message and smiled, “Alright, alright. We’ll forego any unnecessary formalities. In our hearts, you and 1 are already grandpa and granddaughter, and that’s not linked to anyone else.”
Gu Dai grinned and nodded, “Exactly.”
Song Yu, watching the harmonious interaction between Gu Dai and Song An, couldn’t contain her bitterness. “1 don’t know what act she’s putting on. She obviously wanted to agree; all that talking was just beating around the bush!”
Wang Lan chimed in, “Exactly, such a pretentious bit—”
Before she could finish, Song An, whose face had already darkened at Song Yu’s words, slammed his palm onto the table. “I’ve put up with you both for far too long. If you can’t behave yourselves here, then get out!”
Though Song An had been angry before, the force of his anger this time was unparalleled. Wang Lan and Song Yu took several steps back, their faces filled with fear.
Not wanting to let them off the hook, Song An continued, “I’ve had someone investigate. It turns out that you both dared to mistreat Daidai behind my back. Daidai has always been pure and kind-hearted and didn’t tell me about it. But that doesn’t mean these issues are in the past, and I have no intention of letting you off the hook!”
Wang Lan and Song Yu’s faces went ashen. They were so shaken that they staggered and collapsed onto the ground.
Song An stared at their current state and coldly demanded, “Apologize to Daidai now!”
Wang Lan and Song Yu lifted their heads, prepared to declare they would never apologize. But when they saw the stern expression on Song An’s face, they were rendered speechless.
After a long pause, Wang Lan finally managed to say, “Regardless of anything, I’m still an elder. Since when do elders apologize to the younger generation?”
Song An glared at Wang Lan and retorted, “I’ve seen plenty of elders apologize to younger people. Besides, have you ever behaved like a true elder? Both you and Song Yu must apologize today!”
Wang Lan and Song Yu had never expected Song An would go to such lengths for Gu Dai. As they turned their gaze towards her, their eyes were filled with deep resentment. Reluctantly, they muttered, “Sorry.”
Both of their voices were exceptionally soft, devoid of any sincerity.
Gu Dai picked up on this but didn’t really care. After all, she had no interest in apologies from Wang Lan and Song Yu. However, since her grandfather was standing up for her, she gently nodded and murmured, “Mhmm.”
Song An also noticed the insincerity in Wang Lan and Song Yu’s voices. He initially wanted to make them apologize again, but since Gu Dai had already accepted it, he had to drop the idea. However, he wasn’t ready to let them off the hook so easily. “Both of you, get out. Don’t come back in. Your presence is irritating!”
Wang Lan and Song Yu had no choice but to exit, sulking. In their hearts, they had already cursed Song An and Gu Dai multiple times.
Once the two left, the atmosphere seemed to clear up. Song An chatted with Gu Dai for quite some time until her phone rang, indicating that it was getting late. Their conversation reluctantly came to a halt.
Gu Dai smiled and said, “Grandpa, the person picking me up will be here soon. I’ll come and visit you whenever I get the chance, alright?”
Although Song An was reluctant to see her go, he knew that young people had their own lives to live. So, he nodded and said, “Okay.”
Song Ling, watching Gu Dai’s retreating figure, turned to Song An and said, “Grandpa, I’ll step out for a moment.”
Startled by Song Ling’s sudden voice, Song An had forgotten he was still there. Seeing him was irritating, so he waved his hand dismissively, “Go away!”
Song Ling was speechless.
Quickly exiting, Song Ling called out, “Gu Dai.”
Gu Dai quickened her steps when she heard Song Ling’s voice, not wanting to engage with him.
Seeing this, Song Ling also sped up to catch her, grabbing her wrist as he reached her.
Feeling a sharp pain in her wrist, Gu Dai’s brows furrowed in irritation. She swiftly shook off Song Ling’s grasp..
