Back For My Daughter

"Humph, I didn't miss you, I missed my Grandma."

Xiao Ya looked at Old Mo with a pout and called out.

"Haha, that old lady was about to kill me wanting to bring you back, it's better than this old man didn't have to walk to you to get you back. Haha."

Old Mo laughed as he walked out of the counter and towards Ye Qian and Little Jia.

"How are you, child?"

He looked at Little Jia and asked while handing her a small chocolate bar.

"Hehe, I am fine Grandpa."

The little girl bowed in respect and took the chocolate.

Seeing that her Grandpa had given her Biggest Sister a bar of chocolate, Xiao Ya looked at Old Mo with expectations.

But a long time passed and he didn't say anything.

"AHEM AHEM."

The little girl had seen people clearing their throats when wanting to get someone's attention so she also did, only to hear.

"Hey, Little Brat do you want one as well."

Old Mo said with a teasing look while shaking another bar of chocolate in front of Xiao Ya's eyes.

"Humph."

The little girl folded her arms under her chest and looked sideways.

She understood that her Grandpa was making her angry while doing this, so she also did the same and completely disregarded him.

"Hey little girl, don't you want your favourite chocolate?"

Just as the little girl had thought, as soon as she ignored him, Old Mo's smile turned forced as he didn't know how to react.

This was the favourite chocolate of his little granddaughter, and every time he flashed it in front of her, she would be like a fish jumping in the water.

This was a completely out of syllabus type of question for him.

He didn't know how he should react.

Seeing him like this, Little Jia who was holding Ye Qian's finger giggled.

It seemed like Grandpa Mo had been caught in his trap.

It was not only Little Jia, but even Ye Qian and the few customers also burst into laughter seeing Old Mo getting defeated.

"Alright, I admit defeat, have your chocolate."

Finally, Old Mo waved his white flag in depression, after losing quite a lot of faces.

"HUMPH."

With a smug Xiao Ya turned to her Grandpa and snatched the chocolate from his hand.

'My Granddaughter got very smart suddenly.'

Old Mo smiled wryly looking at Ye Qian who also had the same smile plastered on his face.

"Jia and Xiao Ya, you both go upstairs, I will talk to your Grandpa."

As if noticing that Old Mo was wanting to say something but appeared a bit uneasy in front of Xiao Ya and Little Jia, Ye Qian said while looking at the two little girls.

"Yes, Papa, I will show Big Sister my room."

As if she had got a chance to do something exciting, Xiao Ya rattled in Ye Qian's arms and said in excitement.

Ye Qian carefully placed the little girl on the floor and even before her feet could touch the ground, Xiao Ya skipped to Little Jia and pulled her hand with shining eyes.

"Big Sister, I will show you my room, you will love it so much."

She grabbed Little Jia's hands and the two little girl's skipped to the stairs and carefully climbed.

One could hear the two's chatter all along the staircase as they climbed up to Xiao Ya's room.

"Hehe, then let's go, I also want to play for some time, I am bored."

Meanwhile, in the shop.

Old Mo stared at Ye Qian with gratefulness and a sense of thanking him.

His eyes were also filled with tears, but it was obvious that they were tears of joy.

Ye Qian shook his head and waved his hand.

"You don't have to thank me, but it is us who should be thanking you for allowing Xiao Ya to be with us for so long."

Ye Qian smiled and held Old Mo sit by the chair beside them.

"You know, it's been long since I saw her so much cheerful and happy."

Old Mo said while his lips trembled.

"Haha, but it's alright, I am happy that the child is so cheerful now. At least she remembered us."

He chuckled but couldn't stop the tears in his eyes.

"My old wife was worried about the little girl since yesterday, whether she would even be able to sleep without us or even eat the food since that little one is very picky."

"She was not able to sleep peacefully yesterday without the child beside her, but seeing the girl now makes me feel that my old wife would still be happy after knowing how happy she was with you two."

"Haha, I am really very happy."

"Haha, I am very happy."

"Haha, I am very happy."

Unknowingly to him, Old Mo repeated the same sentence a few times.

But one couldn't blame him for it right, he was in a trance with the joy and the melancholy he was feeling about.

Joy since his granddaughter was back to being cheerful like she was before that accident happened.

And melancholic since his daughter and son-in-law were both dead and the little girl had completely forgotten about the two.

But there was no way that one could blame Xiao Ya for this since she was just a year old and would barely remember her parent's faces from that time.

Ye Qian sighed seeing Old Mo like this.

After talking with the old man for a long time and letting the two little girls upstairs play along for some time, Ye Qian some meat.

Old Mo didn't want to make money from Ye Qian, since it would make it feel awkward.

Even if they had no relation whatsoever, his Granddaughter considered the couple as her parents and they also considered her as their child, so he felt that taking money from them would be against his heart.

But Ye Qian couldn't let it be like this, he gave him the exact amount after forcing Old Mo with a few emotional threats which he had learned from the little girls after a few days.
