Daiyu shook her head.
"It's alright. You don't have to hide anything from me. Has your Jin-gege ever been mean to you?" Liu Jin cupped her face with one hand.
Daiyu looked up to him, her eyes growing teary. She shook her head.
"Jin-gege is always kind to Daiyu."
He smiled at her warmly.
"That's right. Your Jin-gege will always take your side. No matter what happens. So don't keep things from me, okay? If you feel like you can't tell me, then you have to tell your grandfather."
"Grandpaw?"
"Mmm." Liu Jin gently stroked her hair.
"Your grandfather loves you very much. He will always watch over you and protect you."
Liu Jin remembered Daiyu talking about how her grandfather had always stood by her side despite Xia Xiulan's schemes.
