Upon hearing the mention of the family patriarch, Gu Dai immediately sat upright, her eyes fixed intently on the screen.
Meng Zhi looked puzzled. "The Song family sent just a butler for this occasion. What could he possibly have to say now? Is he here to offer his blessings for Song Ling and Jiang Yue's marriage?"
Gu Dai shook her head firmly. "No," she said.
Scratching his head in confusion, Meng Zhi asked, "Daidai, how can you be so sure?"
Softly, Gu Dai replied, "Because Grandpa Song has been very kind to me these past three years."
Memories of Song An floated through Gu Dai's mind. She wondered how he had been doing since her divorce from Song Ling.
Meng Zhi looked somewhat surprised upon hearing Gu Dai's response. He had initially thought poorly of everyone in the Song family but now realized that the patriarch was different. Perhaps age had bestowed upon him the wisdom to discern right from wrong.
