IPVS Chapter 22.7

Sitting and eating together with a group of really well-behaved adults, they naturally listened to some topics that they did not understand at all. The two little dumplings lowered their heads to eat and received a lot of praise saying that they were good babies.

After dinner, An An rubbed her round belly and sat next to her Grandma to eat fruit.

Jiang Hairu touched her granddaughter’s head and said to Cen Yanjun: “My grandchild is very good at dancing. What about yours?”

The little dumpling concentrated on eating the fruit. The apples were so crispy that they made a ‘click-click’ sound.

Cen Yanjun glanced sideways at Jiang Hairu.

Refuse to compare.

Wasn’t a little girl who couldn’t dance cute? No, An An could make people angry. How capable she was! (T/N: The best skill!! Refuse for rebuttal!)

“Qi Qi, come and perform for everyone.” Jiang Hairu said to Qi Qi.

Too many eyes were staring at her. Her mother was not here, so the lively Qi Qi was a little scared for a while.

Her little hands were holding the corners of her clothes, but she never stood up.

Can she not dance?

“Qi Qi, you are too cowardly. Didn’t your mother say that you have many talents? Come on and give us a show, just a dance.”

“Isn’t it just a performance? So many people are waiting.”

Time passed minute by minute, and everyone was waiting.

Jiang Hairu couldn’t hold back her face. Just when she was about to continue urging her granddaughter, she suddenly saw Cen Yanjun and An An whispering.

She asked: “Yanjun, what did you say? Say it and let everyone listen.”

After a pause, she added: “Children need to be taught. To whisper in adults’ ears outside is really—”

Cen Yanjun interrupted her and patted the child’s shoulder: “I don’t know what she said, but you caught it in your eye the moment she said it. Little girl, be bold and tell everyone, Grandma will support you.”

An An blinked her eyes, raised her head to meet her Grandma’s confident gaze, and scratched her head: “Okay.”

Immediately, the little dumpling turned to look at Qi Qi and asked in a stingy voice: “Qi Qi, why doesn’t your Grandma perform a dance by herself?”

Jiang Hairu’s expression changed, but she couldn’t lose her temper, so she could only freeze there.

Everyone present lowered their heads, pursed their lips, and suppressed their laughter. They did not speak to save face for the host.

Only Cen Yanjun laughed out loud.

***

Although Jiang Hairu was dissatisfied with Ruan Qingqing and thought that this person was too narrow-minded and not magnanimous enough, at least, Qi Qi was taught well.

The child was obedient and sensible, which made people worry-free.

For Jiang Hairu, getting along with her granddaughter tonight was generally quite pleasant.

Of course, it would be better if Cen Yanjun and her fake granddaughter were not here.

At 7:30, Jiang Hairu ordered the driver to take the children home.

Cen Yanjun: “No, my son will come to take the little girl back.”

Looking at her back as she left, Jiang Hairu became angry again.

She was treated like her own granddaughter.

An An followed Cen Yanjun back home.

This house was more beautiful than the previous one.

For the first time, the little dumpling learned that there was an elevator in the house.

Cen Yanjun played with the child all night, but she still had more to say.

This little girl was so well-behaved that she would not wander around in a strange place or touch things that she shouldn’t touch. Her biological parents must have taught her well.

There was a sound of footsteps.

An An raised her head and saw Mr. Gu coming out of the study.

Mr. Gu was very serious, with a straight face and an unsmiling look.

As soon as he saw An An, he asked: “Where did you get a child?”
