As soon as Shi Xiu entered the house, she kicked off her high heels and ran inside barefooted, hollering, "Mom, Dad! I got the lead role!"
Yun Nan smiled wryly. Shi Nian handed her a pair of house slippers and consoled her, "Don't worry, she can handle it herself. Mom and Dad can't thank you enough." Even so, Yun Nan didn't dare to relax.
Shi Xiu bumped into her grandfather and hugged him. Eager to share the news, she exclaimed, "Grandpa, Grandpa! I got the role! I'm the female lead!"
Nearly bowled over by his granddaughter, Shi Kong staggered back and cried, "Ouch! Easy now, sweetheart, slow down! These old bones aren't what they used to be!"
Shi Xiu gave Shi Kong a peck on the cheek before rushing to her father, who had shown up after Shi Kong. "Daddy, Daddy! I'm the female lead!"
Shi Kong looked at his frenzied granddaughter and asked his grandson and granddaughter-in-law behind him, "What's gotten into her? Why is she so… happy?"
