The old man looked at Cheng Yanzhi, sighed, "I used to always feel that I was too strict with you, for fear you would hate me. Now, I'm actually quite glad, it's precisely because of my strictness that you didn't end up like Che..."
Cheng Yanzhi knew at least, where the lines were drawn.
For instance, at this moment, even if the old man didn't say anything, Cheng Yanzhi would not entangle himself with Han Ningyan again, despite the fact that Han Ningyan had once saved his life.
Cheng Yanzhi felt somewhat surprised.
In his childhood, if Che barely passed an exam, he would be praised.
But if he did slightly worse, even if he was the top student in the whole school, he would be criticized.
Afterward, regardless of how well he did, even if the old man was pleased, he wouldn't express it.
This was the first time his grandfather complimented him to his face.
Cheng Yanzhi said, "I know that grandfather always feels guilty about Aunt's affairs. However, it's not entirely your fault."
