“Old man, don’t be angry anymore,” Li Meixiang said with a sigh, shaking her head as she saw Yang Lisheng’s face remain gloomy. She was angry too, but what could she do? No matter how bad Xinxin was, she was still their daughter. They couldn’t truly cut off their relationship, could they?

Yang Lisheng looked at Li Meixiang and Song Yan Ning and, seeing their concerned looks, he forced a smile, “I’m not angry. I’m thinking about where we will stay tonight.” He certainly wouldn’t stay in the new house Xinxin had mentioned.

“Grandpa, Grandma, why don’t we stay in a hotel?” Song Yan Ning suggested. She hadn’t slept at all the night before and was feeling somewhat tired now.

Li Meixiang nodded in agreement. Her head felt heavy and foggy, and she wanted to rest properly.

“Alright, let’s go look for a hotel now,” said Yang Lisheng as he picked up their luggage and stood up. His wife and Xiao Ning must not have slept well on the train last night.

He had only taken a few steps when his cell phone started ringing from his pocket. He frowned but didn’t plan on answering. Normally, no one called him, so it must be Xinxin. He didn’t want to deal with her right now.

The phone kept ringing.

“Old man, just give me the phone. I’ll answer it,” Li Meixiang couldn’t help but speak up. They couldn’t just keep ignoring the call.

Yang Lisheng sighed, put down the luggage, took out his phone, and saw an unfamiliar number. He guessed it was a wrong number and answered, “Hello!”
