"Mom! I have good news for you!"

"What is it Jinzhe? What news do you have for me?"

"It's Liena! She is finally on a date! Start looking at the calendar for her wedding date!"

"Liena now has someone, now I'm going to be a great grandmother! My son, you have made me so proud! Words cannot express how I feel right now!"

Sheng Jinzhe could hear the muffled sound from the background almost as if the person was crying.

"Mom, are you crying?!"

"I'm not crying."

Even though Madam Sheng told her son she wasn't shedding tears, he could hear her blow her nose nosily from the other end of the line.

"I don't want you to cry, I'm sure that she would get married soon."

Sheng Jinzhe could not keep the joy from his voice, he felt elated by the news that his daughter was finally seeing someone, even though he didn't know that it was a blind date, probably that would have made his happiness die as quickly as it came.
