Jiang Fan nodded awkwardly, gave an embarrassed smile, and put the teacup on the desk.
"Grandpa, what did you need me for?" Chu Ruohan bounded down the stairs, a sweet smile on her face.
Jiang Fan looked up at his daughter and tried to signal her with his eyes, but Chu Ruohan simply didn't get it.
"Ruohan, come here. I have something to ask you," said Chu Yan in a calm voice.
Chu Ruohan looked at her mother, then back at her grandfather and finally began to realize that something was off.
She slowly made her way to her grandfather, meaning to cozy up to him like she usually did, but his face displayed a slight irritation so she opted to just stand there respectfully.
"Grandpa!"
"Ruohan, what have you been involved in these past few days?" Chu Yan asked sternly, his gaze sharp like a blade.
Chu Ruohan mentally cursed, but kept her smile on. "I haven't been busy with anything; I have just been at home these past days."
