Seeing such a pitiful expression, Wang Shouzhe's mouth twitched a couple of times. He took several deep breaths to calm himself before saying, "Fine, fine, you didn't do anything wrong. Come, take a seat."
Immediately, Wang Licui found a stool to sit on, perching at the very edge, posed as if she were ready to be chided by her Fourth Uncle.
"I can tell, the Old Ancestor is quite fond of you." Wang Shouzhe said, "Spend more time with her on our journey, keep her company."
So it's about this? As long as I'm not getting chastised, it's all good.
Wang Licui loosened up slightly from her tense state, consistently nodding in agreement. She moved slightly back on the stool, took out a preserved sweet snack to calm herself, then began eating it with delight.
Seeing her carefree manner, Wang Shouzhe felt a twitch in his eye.
