Shi Yaoguang explained to Cheng Lingdang, "I came to the Xiao Family to draw pictures for Elder Xiao."
This year, Xiao Cenyang turned fifty-five, and Madame Xiao was one year older than him.
Though there was only a year's difference in age between them, their birthdays fell on the same day.
Therefore, the Xiao Family's birthday banquet was not only for Xiao Cenyang but was also held in honor of Madame Xiao.
Xiao Cenyang looked at Cheng Lingdang, his voice filled with earnestness, as he said to her, "As your grandfather has gotten older, it hasn't been easy raising you all these years. It's time for you to repay us."
"Repay?" Cheng Lingdang revealed a hint of confusion.
Was it what she was thinking?
As Cheng Lingdang wrestled with uncertainty, Xiao Cenyang opened his mouth to say, "We could let it slide in past years, but this year the gifts you give to your grandmother and me cannot be shabby."
