Elder Zhu was worried that after becoming a soldier, Zhu Baoguo might end up as cannon fodder in the future.
But judging from Zhu Baoguo's performance today, Elder Zhu was sure that his grandson would not end up as cannon fodder as long as he was taught well. He would be a good politician instead!
"Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa. Both Grandpa and Maternal Grandpa had put in so much effort to groom me. I would be letting both of you down if I do not make any improvement." Zhu Baoguo was not used to sitting next to Elder Zhu, but he remembered what Qiao Nan once taught him. Zhu Baoguo extended his hand awkwardly and placed it on Elder Zhu's shoulders as if they were buddies. "Grandpa, don't worry. I am sensible now."
"…" Elder Zhu was not very accustomed to his grandson's affectionate gesture. It was usually his maternal grandson who would be affectionate to him. But he was very happy. In fact, he was delighted that his grandson was being close to him.
