"Grandpa...thank you, I understand..."
"Silly child, there's no need for thanks between us."
Fu Jingshen continued to make small talk with Grandpa Fu for a few more moments before hanging up the phone. His dark eyes gazed out the window at the scenery, where he stood for a very long time.

Fu Jingshen hadn't returned to the South City villa for three consecutive days.
