“C-Can I come see… the child?”
He seemed so insignificant after putting down all his pride and arrogance to pose this question carefully .
His careful and probing tone was as weak and vulnerable as an ant .

As an elder and her son"s great grandpa, it was only right for him to come in to see the child; she had no right to stop him!
Previously, the very sight of him reminded her of her children, who were caught in a life-and-death situation—hence, her opposing att.i.tude and hatred toward him . If not for him, those two kids might not have gotten into such a dangerous situation!
She hated him for his foolishness, for his blinded eyes, and for her mother"s pa.s.sing at such a young age because of him! She hated that because of him, she had to go through so much suffering .
However, now that her children were safe and sound, her hatred for him had somewhat diminished .

The nurse a.s.sisted the elderly man to sit by the bed .
Despite his silence, relief appeared in his turbid eyes when he looked at the boy .
The lad"s feelings toward his great grandpa were particularly complex .
His impression of Mu Sheng was stern, stubborn, and even bigoted!
The elderly one was usually taciturn and unsmiling; he had a harsh tone when speaking and his sharp and penetrating gaze resembled a hawk"s when he looked at others .
He had always felt that this old man looked especially hard to get close .
Hence, he had been a little distant to his great grandpa since he was much younger, shunning him whenever he wanted to get close to him!
