Chapter 348: Doubts, Li Jingtian's Entanglement...

Doudou's body trembled slightly—not out of fear of Chengcheng, but rather... not wanting Great-Grandma to worry, so she tacitly agreed.

Old Madam Li nodded, not saying a word.

After they finished their meal, she secretly called Doudou over to her side.

Lowering her voice, Old Madam Li said, "Doudou, be honest with Great-Grandma. Why have you been coming home so late these days?"

Doudou was startled.

Great-Grandma had actually seen through Chengcheng's lies!

Old Madam Li noticed the little girl's hesitation and continued, "Doudou, don't worry. Once you tell me, Great-Grandma promises not to let Chengcheng find out. This will be our little secret—just between the two of us."

Since it involved their own family, it wouldn't be a problem to tell Great-Grandma, right?

After a brief internal struggle, Doudou extended her pinky finger for a promise.

Old Madam Li hooked her finger and confirmed the pact.

Only then did Doudou start gesturing in sign language.
