Chapter 63: The Next Plan

Ying Bao pondered and pondered. She could not guess what her great grandpa had gotten for her. "Baby can’t guess. Baby is not a tapeworm who lives in great grandpa’s belly. Baby wouldn’t know what is in great grandpa’s head."
"Ha ha ha…"
What a delightful little child!
Jing Huaduo’s had no words to describe his mood, but as long there was Cherry Baby, there wouldn’t be any more dull days.
Next, Jing Huaduo took them to see their room. He had arranged for both mother and daughter to stay in one room, which was specially decorated and quite cozy.
When Ying Bao entered the room, she was pleasantly surprised to find an oversized tiger plush on her bed. It was about the same size as the one Xu Xiyan had bought for her last year.
"Wow wow wow…it’s a big tigger!" Ying Bao jumped up and down on her little feet excitedly. "Great grandpa, is the big tigger the present you bought for Baby?"
"Yes! It’s for my lovely little great granddaughter!" Jing Huaduo smiled at her.
"Woow! Great grandpa, you’re too kind! Long live great grandpa!"
Ying Bao took Jing Huaduo’s arm and pulled him towards her. When he bent down, she planted a grateful kiss onto his cheek.
Great, I can now be friends with big tigger again.
After kissing her grand grandfather, Ying Bao released his hand and happily toddled off to hug the tiger plush. The tiger was really big, taller than Xu Xiyan. Ying Bao’s petite body could only cling to it, hugging and rolling with it on the ground.
Xu Xiyan and her grandfather saw how happy Ying Bao was, and they felt very happy, themselves. Jing Huaduo turned to her and said,
"Thank you, grandfather." Xu Xiyan gave Jing Huaduo a thankful hug. "But I may not be able to live here often in the future, as I’m going to start filming soon. I won’t have time to come back once I get busy, and I’ll most likely live somewhere else."
Xu Xiyan was going to move in next door to Huo Yunshen’s house, and it would be impossible for her to stay at the Jing residence. She wanted to explain this clearly in advance.
"Will you be all right if you live elsewhere? What about the child? After you’ve started filming, how are you going to take care of her?"
"I’ll see how it goes for a while, and wait until September when school starts. Then I’ll find a kindergarten for Ying Bao. When the time comes, Ying Bao will be at school during the day and I’ll only need to take her to school in the morning and pick her up in the evening."
However, this was only her plan. If that accident hadn’t happened back then when they were in Estan, then Ying Bao wouldn’t be afraid of going to school.
"All right!" said Jing Huaduo. "Just leave the child to me, and you can go film with some peace of mind. My bones are still tough and I have more than enough energy to take care of her."
"I will be very relieved with Ying Bao in your care. I won’t have to worry anymore whenever I go out filming, no matter how far away."
Xu Xiyan was very grateful to her grandfather for the support and care he’d provided for so many years.
When her mother had died, her grandfather had been very heartbroken to have lost his only beloved daughter, and it was Xu Xiyan who had accompanied him through those difficult times.
Therefore the bond between Xu Xiyan and her grandfather was strong…much stronger than the bond she had with the Xu family.
Jing Huaduo took Ying Bao to the garden to play. Xu Xiyan went into her mother’s former bedroom to see if she could find some valuable clues.
The room was very clean and was kept the same way as it’d been before. Jing Huaduo would regularly let the servants clean the room, and everything was well-maintained.
Xu Xiyan’s eyes lingered over every item in the room, familiar memories emerging from the depths of her mind.
