Although it was early in the morning, Xiaoqiao was already busy in the kitchen with Lin Ma, with no time to attend to Gu Hangshen.
Because today was a very special day, it was Grandpa Gong's eightieth birthday.
Xiaoqiao had originally planned to have a grand celebration, but Grandpa Gong insisted on keeping things simple, saying that he feared a crowd would be too noisy and he didn't have the energy to deal with it. So, Xiaoqiao gave up on the idea and only invited a few of Grandpa Gong's old friends whom he usually saw.
The Gong family didn't have many relatives to begin with, and with the family's decline over the years and Gong Zhiming's relocation, there were even fewer visits to the old house. Who else would remember the old man's milestone birthday?
It was for this reason that Xiaoqiao didn't want her grandfather to feel neglected or lonely. Even if no one else came, she wanted to do her best to make Grandpa happy.
