Xi Muchen's gaze also drifted casually toward that direction, and he said with a smile, "To say 'afraid' doesn't quite capture it, it's more accurate to say he's too concerned with doing the right thing. Grandpa was really fond of Grandma Shangguan when he was young..."
Xia Wanwan's face showed a look of surprise, she had always suspected that Mr. Han had a special feeling for Bai Lan!
"So..." Xi Muchen smiled and addressed the petite woman in front of him, "Congratulations, Mrs. Xi. It seems like you have found a stronger ally than Xi young master himself in dealing with the old man."
"Really?" Wanwan's mouth curved upward, and her eyes already held a hint of triumph.
"You bad girl, are you that happy about being able to handle the stinky old man?" Xi Muchen chuckled as he pinched her little face, "Shouldn't you restrain that irresistible smile of yours a bit?"
