Ling Jue's eyes flashed. She clenched her fists tightly in her pocket and smiled faintly. "Is that so? Can I talk to Grandma Li? I'm a psychiatrist."
"Really?" Xiaoqiao was full of admiration for her prince charming. She looked at him with admiration.
"Yes." Ling Jue smiled. "I'm very happy to be able to help the old woman."
"Lord Jue, you're so kind." Xiaoqiao's eyes sparkled. How could there be such a perfect prince charming? She would never stop being a fan for the rest of her life.
"Then you can sit here and chat with Grandma Li. I'm checking two rooms now. I'll be back immediately!"
"Okay."
Ling Jue's lips curled up. This little girl was quite clever.
"Grandma Li, you can chat with Xiaoqiao's prince charming here. Xiaoqiao will go and see Grandma Wang and Grandma Wu now. I'll come back immediately, okay?"
"Not good. Xiaoqiao, don't go and see those two old ladies. You have to accompany me!"
Seeing the old woman like this, Xiaoqiao could not help but laugh. She whispered into her ear. "This is Xiaoqiao's favorite person. Please talk to him. Didn't you say that Xiaoqiao should look for a boyfriend? Please talk to him. If he's not good, Xiaoqiao won't like him anymore."
"Xiaoqiao's boyfriend?"
"Yes, yes!" Xiaoqiao looked at Ling Jue awkwardly. In order to help the old lady, she had to let such a good prince charming suffer for the time being.
She did not dare to dream of a prince charming. She would be torn to shreds by her clansmen.
Ling Jue smiled lightly, indicating that she did not mind.
"Okay, then Grandma Li will help you keep an eye on him." Grandma Li nodded with a smile on her face.
"I'll take my leave then."
"Let's go, let's go." Grandma Li waved her hand.
Xiaoqiao looked at Ling Jue apologetically. "Lord Jue, please don't mind Grandma Li's nonsense... Thank you for your trouble."
She bowed and quickly ran away.
Ling Jue looked at the old woman's smiling face and extended her hand to her. "Hello, grandma. I'm Xiaoqiao's boyfriend. Thank you for taking care of her these days."
Grandma Li saw that the kid was quite sensible, so she reached out to shake his hand.
"Grandma Li, I have a question to ask you. I wonder if you can tell me about it?"
"Hmm?" Her eyes were a little cloudy. "What question? Is it about Xiaoqiao?"
"No, I want to ask about the child who went missing fifteen years ago."
Grandma Li suddenly became very quiet. "The missing child is so pitiful..."
"Her parents didn't want her..."
"They said that she was thrown at the door of an ordinary person's home when she was born..."
"She was very beautiful and was about to die. I put her in the nursery, and she survived..."
"But she disappeared in a few days. Her parents still threw her away... But, a few days later, I was walking on the street, and I saw someone steal her..."
She spoke in a staccato voice, as if she was recalling something.
Ling Jue reached out to hold her. "And then? Who are her parents?"
"I can't tell you..." She looked up with fear in her eyes. "I can't tell you. If I tell you, I'll die. Xiaoqiao will die, you'll die, the principal will die... I forgot... I forgot, I don't know anything!"
She suddenly went crazy. "Don't ask me anymore. I don't know anything."
Ling Jue gently touched her hand. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
She miraculously quieted down. She raised her head and stared at Ling Jue. Then, her face was filled with shock. "It's you! Her parents are you! It's you!"
"It's you! It's you! Ahhhh! Demon! There's a ghost!"
She quickly pulled her hand out, stood up in fear, and screamed.
