Mr. Mi looked stunned, his expression gloomy, seeming less spirited than usual, and in an instant, he seemed to age significantly. He didn't care whether Guoying respected him, nor did he care if her words were harsh. But he did care that his own granddaughter didn't understand him, that her words hurt him.
Dai Jinhai couldn't stand by and see this, nor could he bear to see his old friend disheartened, so he backed off saying, "Let's not go on about it then! Since it's a private matter of your family, as an outsider, I shouldn't get involved."
A smug expression appeared on Li Guoying's face, she knew all along that her father-in-law would eventually give in.
"Ah! What a disaster this family is!" Mr. Mi kept sighing.
Dai Jinhai consoled, "Okay, stop sighing already! This is a different era, quit repeating those old cliches."
