Thankful for all she's taught me, grateful for breathing new life into me.
Gu Danyu's eyes, once icy, began to thaw, her lips curling into a smile.
She mused silently, "Little girl, your sister-in-law is very proud...."
She paused a moment.
A mocking voice reached her ear from nearby, "Isn't someone supposed to fulfill a bet now?"
Master Li sat with his legs crossed, looking as if he were enjoying a good show.
Gu Danyu's eyes twinkled, remembering someone had insisted on being her grandchild.
Feeling several weird gazes on her, the bearded man's face turned iron blue as he lowered his voice, "Grandfather."
"What? I didn't hear that clearly, who are you talking to?" Master Li exaggerated his movements, shouting.
As more and more people turned their attention their way, veins throbbed on the bearded man's forehead. He clenched his teeth and loudly said, "Grandfather, Master Gu, satisfied now?"
A burst of laughter followed from the crowd around them.
