Pei Jingping had the key and opened the door directly.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm back." He called out as he entered the door.

The old couple lived in a courtyard, but they were not in the yard at this time.

An old lady wearing a black cheongsam, with thick silver hair tied in a half-low ponytail with a black bow, came out after hearing the sound.

A noble aura came towards me. The old lady walked quickly but her posture was still elegant.

Her eyes were filled with joy that could not be concealed, and her pupils did not become cloudy with age, but instead were unusually clear and bright, sparkling with light.

Mrs. Pei smiled and walked forward to hold Sang Ran: "Are you here?"

Sang Ran nodded with a smile. She had an outstanding temperament and Sang Ran could recognize her identity at a glance.

She lowered her head and looked at Sang Ning: "Call me grandma."

After saying this, only Sang Ran knew that the title of great-grandmother was owed to the grandparents.

"Grandma."

"Ah!" Old Mrs. Pei laughed out loud.

She squatted down and wanted to pick up Sang Ning, but she heard the voice of Old Lady Sang from behind: "You are old, aren't you afraid of spraining your waist?"

Old Mrs. Pei turned around and glared at her.

Sang Ran looked over and saw an old man with a strong spirit and wearing a Zhongshan suit following behind Old Lady Sang. It should be Grandpa Pei.

He just smiled faintly and walked towards this side step by step with his hands behind his back.

With Grandma Sang around, Sang Ran didn't feel particularly awkward. It was more like meeting her grandmother's friends than meeting her boyfriend's parents.

Mrs. Pei simply gave up the idea of ​​hugging Sang Ning. She pulled Sang Ran and said, "Come on, let's go in and talk. I asked Auntie to make a lot of food that you like tonight."

As she spoke, she patted Sang Ran with her hands; she couldn't hide her love for him.

Pei Jingping who was ignored:...

He hasn't been home for a long time, okay?

He could only follow behind silently and watch Old Lady Sang lead Sang Ning in.

Walking around the green lake in the yard and the tea table in the middle of the yard, they arrived at the main hall.

The whole house has only one floor, and the hall is designed with a high ceiling, so the view appears particularly wide.

Sang Ran couldn't help but look around. She had always liked flats before, but now she felt that such a small courtyard had a unique flavor.

"sit."

Sang Ran withdrew his gaze, smiled, nodded and sat down.

Grandpa Pei didn't say much. He just quietly fiddled with his tea set and warmed the cups for several people.

"You know what, this child looks so much like you, so cute." The more Old Mrs. Pei looked at the child, the more she liked him. Nothing could give old people like this more of a surprise than when their grandson, who was urging them to get married, suddenly brought home a child.

"Mainly because she looks like my granddaughter." Old Mrs. Sang interjected.

These two sisters miss each other whenever they can't see each other, and get annoyed when they see each other for too long. They want to argue with each other every day, but they are just joking.

Since Sang Ran was here, Old Mrs. Pei was in a good mood and didn't bother with her.

She noticed the necklace on Sang Ran's neck, and her eyes lit up: "I was wondering why I didn't see this necklace when I cleaned the room recently."

"This necklace has been in this kid's room for three years. He treats it like a treasure and doesn't let anyone touch it. It turns out it was bought for you."

Pei Jingping silently watched Sang Ran's reaction.

Of course, Sang Ran didn't think that this necklace was bought for her, but she was also a little curious about how Pei Jingping bought it.

It is, after all, the work of Victor Castelan.

She changed the subject and asked, "Grandma, do you know who designed this necklace?"

"I don't know, but I heard it's quite famous." Mrs. Pei said truthfully, "He went to France specifically for a long time, and brought this back when he came back."

"I was wondering why this guy was running to Italy every day. It turns out you were in Milan. At that time, I scolded him for only focusing on work and not finding a girlfriend. Now it seems that we old-fashioned people are the ones who don't understand romance."

As she spoke, she and Old Lady Sang looked at each other and smiled.

The two of them should often talk about previous clues and secretly check the details of Sang Ran and Pei Jingping's relationship.

Sang Ran was a little surprised when Mrs. Pei said this, and she glanced at Pei Jingping.

Going abroad in person to buy a gift for your future girlfriend, would you care so much about someone who doesn't even exist yet?

Pei Jingping was afraid that Old Lady Pei would say too much, so he took the tea handed to him by his grandfather and placed it in front of her: "Grandma, have some tea."

Old Mrs. Pei glanced at him and knew that he was trying to stop her from talking.

She took out the gifts and red envelopes she had prepared for the two of them in advance and handed them to Sang Ran.

This was considered a sense of ritual, and Sang Ran accepted it generously without any hesitation.

There was still some time before dinner time, and there happened to be a swing in the middle of the yard. After they chatted for a while, Sang Ran took Sang Ning out to play.

"Put it on. It's still a bit cold." Pei Jingping chased after her with her coat.

Sang Ran leaned closer to him, and walked forward with her head down, asking vaguely, "You seem strange."

"What do you mean?" Pei Jingping raised his eyebrows.

Sang Ran: "You seem to have a virtual girlfriend in your heart. Most people wouldn't care so much about someone who doesn't exist."

too weird.

"Sang Ran." His voice was tinged with gloom, and he seemed to be a little confused and a little depressed.

The two people were clearly walking side by side, but there seemed to be a layer of paper between them, one wanted to break it, and the other kept trying to make up for it.

"You really don't understand?"

One word caused a thousand waves, like a stone of medium size, thrown into Sang Ran's heart, dealing a heavy blow.

She still wanted to play dumb.

Can she still play dumb?

He often went to Italy, and the necklace he prepared for someone who didn't exist happened to be from her favorite designer.

He waited for her late at night and showed her meticulous care and concern.

If he really wanted to get married, would there be no suitable candidate? Why did he hide it from his family and look for Sang Ran, a woman who was pregnant before marriage in the eyes of outsiders?

He even hid it from his family and accepted Sang Ning as his daughter despite his dignity as a man, and never complained once.

But she still wanted to play dumb: "What?" She smiled harmlessly, then looked forward, "We're here, let's go, Sang Ning, I'll push you."

She pulled Sang Ning and ran over a few steps.

In the afterglow of the sunset, the man stood there, his hands in his pockets, a hint of pain in his eyes.

He didn't move forward, but turned and left.

Hearing the footsteps fading away, Sang Ran looked up.

"Mom, a little higher!" Seeing that she was in a trance, Sang Ning turned around and called her.

"okay."

Sang Ning never liked to interfere in Sang Ran's affairs, and she was always a bystander when Sang Ran was in contact with Pei Jingping.

However, these days, she also discovered the strange atmosphere between Sang Ran and Pei Jingping.

"Mom, I heard a story recently."

Her voice came with the wind.

Sang Ran responded subconsciously: "What story."

"There was a little girl who had a puppy. Later her family sold the puppy. She cried for a while and then she was completely fine. She never mentioned the puppy again."

"When she grew up, a friend wanted to give her a puppy, but she refused, saying that she didn't like dogs. The friend asked her to help raise the puppy for a few days on the pretext of something. She took good care of it, but she didn't dare to get close to the puppy. Do you know why?"

"why?"

"Because she was afraid that she would fall in love with the puppy and that they would eventually be separated."

Sang Ran: “…”

She understood Sang Ning's hint, and she roughly knew her own problems, but she didn't have the courage to make changes.

The pocket of her coat vibrated at the right time, interrupting Sang Ran's thoughts. She picked up the phone: "Hello."

"Is this Ms. Sang?" It was a young man's voice on the other end of the phone.

"it's me."

"I'm from the Kyoto Police Department. Do you have time to come over now? We've already found out who the anonymous user is for the online rumor case you reported earlier."
