Leilei, I trust you are all settled in; Grandma Gu asked me as I joined her in the living room.

A maid came with snacks and drinks and placed them on the table, with a bow she turned and left.

And I also trust everything is to your liking, yes?

Everything is okay Grandma I said with a bow.

Good, since you are all settled, concerning A'an's school, I will suggest he goes to the same school as the rest of the Gu's. That is if you are okay with it.

Grandma, I have no problem with that.

Good, don't worry I will have it all sorted out and A'an can start tomorrow.

Thank you, grandma.

There is no need for that, you are my granddaughter and that makes A'an my great-grandson.

Grandma, there is something I would like to ask, it's a favor.

Go on child, tell me what is it.

Grandma you see, I don't know much about the social etiquette of the Gu's.

And it's been a long time since I left high society. I was wondering if maybe you could get someone to help me and brush me up a little. 

I don't want to embarrass you.

Oh dear girl you don't know how happy you just made me. Not to worry I will have everything sorted out for you, don't you worry.

Oh, this is amazing, Grandma Gu clapped her hands in delight squealing like a little girl. I couldn't help but smile. Her happiness is contagious.

Leilei, thank you for agreeing to this, I know and understand how you feel, but trust me from now on you will never have to face anything alone.

And one more thing, this family is strong and you have to be strong in other to survive here. No matter what happens, I want you to stand firm and own your ground.

Always carry yourself high and never allow anyone no matter who they are to ride on you.

You are Gu Meili's grandaughter now, never forget that.
