These past two days, Su Xiyang had been plagued by worries, mainly stemming from the conflict with her grandfather, Su Ke. After the incident at the Brilliant Building, the two of them harbored a deep grudge. Unsure how to handle the situation, Su Xiyang decided not to stay at home for the time being to avoid both her own irritation and her grandfather's disapproving glares. When their mutual resentment was so strong, it was better not to see each other at all.
Leaning on Shen Fanyun's shoulder as they walked, Su Xiyang complained quietly, her eyes dim with melancholy. "Tell me, I try to be obedient and well-behaved, so why doesn't Grandpa like me? It's been like this since I was little. It's as if Su Ziye is his real granddaughter, and I'm not. In my memory, he's hardly ever smiled at me!"
Shen Fanyun chuckled. "If he doesn't cherish you, plenty of others will."
