Thank you Miao Ai Chi for the Christmas socks!!!

  Bai Xi Jing's "reminder" (threat??) apparently took effect, and Old Man Bai stiffened for a while before curling up the corners of his mouth to reveal an expression that was even more terrifying than a furious glare - a dubious smile. Then he popped the milk candy into his mouth. Even White Grandma was startled by Old Man Bai's century-old smile, and the younger generation turned pale with fear. If you can't smile, then don't smile, or else you might scare people into having nightmares at night!

  Xiao Jingchen's eyebrows curved into a crescent moon shape, her mouth corners sank into two small dimples, and she pounced onto Grandpa's body. Her four cat-like claws grasped and kicked, climbing from Grandma's body to sit on Grandpa's leg. The four older brothers watched Xiao Jingchen's reckless behavior with admiration, their hearts filled with a sense of reverence for this fearless little sister.

  The master said that the appearance is just a shell, so Xiaojingchen didn't care about Grandpa Bai's serious expression and the evil spirit's smile. Relying on her wild intuition like a beast, she could easily distinguish between good and evil intentions on humans or animals. Although Grandpa Bai looked scary, his eyes were actually very kind, and the aura around him was warm and cozy. As the patriarch of the White family, he naturally had an air of tolerance, so Xiaojingchen not only wasn't afraid of him but also felt close to him, because he reminded her of her dad!!!

  Xiao Jingchen sat on Grandpa Bai's lap, and he subconsciously raised his hand to support her back to prevent her from falling backwards. Xiao Jingchen looked up at Grandpa Bai with big, round, wet eyes that sparkled like diamonds. Grandpa Bai lowered his head, his almond-shaped eyes staring blankly at his little granddaughter, their gazes locked in a strange and eerie atmosphere.

  Bai Qirui was young and fashionable, wearing a stick under his arm to show off his filial piety. His wife didn't have the makings of a strict mother, so naturally, Mr. Bai became a strict father. He gradually developed an unsmiling personality, beating his four sons into shape. As a high-ranking official, he worked in the most solemn law enforcement agency, earning him the nickname "Black-Faced God".

  Later, there were several grandsons, all of whom were mischievous, and none of the sons' wives could be strict parents. So, in the end, it was this grandfather who played the role of the bad guy again, which also solidified Bai Qirui's unshakeable position as the family head of the White family. Although he was serious and stern, never speaking carelessly or joking around, he would never be unreasonable or violent, and when he was young, he would occasionally knock on his disobedient sons, but with his grandsons, he had never even lifted a finger against them.

  He had four sons and seven grandsons, but no daughters or granddaughters. Then, suddenly, a soft and chubby little granddaughter appeared, who not only wasn't afraid of him, but even dared to ignore his scowl and snuggle into his arms. Bai Qirui was at a loss for how to react, and could only stare blankly at his granddaughter, maintaining his usual stoic expression on the surface while his mind frantically searched for an appropriate response.

  Xiao Jing didn't know about Grandpa's entanglement, she just thought that Grandpa kept staring at her and must have something to say, but he never said it out loud. After thinking for a moment, she turned around and picked up another piece of candy from the tea table, unwrapped it and put it to Grandpa's mouth, "Grandpa, eat some candy."

  The still hesitant grandfather subconsciously opened his mouth and ate it.

  Xiao Jingdun smiled and swung her little radish legs, she had guessed correctly, Grandpa wanted to eat candy. So, Xiao Jingdun, who didn't know that candies should be eaten one by one and not too many, took out another piece of milk candy, unwrapped it, and put it to Grandpa's mouth, "Grandpa, have some candy."

  The foolish old man who still hadn't reacted continued to eat another one.

  "Grandpa, have some candy."

  Grandpa: "......" Because of the three pieces of milk candy in his mouth, Grandpa felt a bit off and finally came to his senses. He stared blankly at his little granddaughter, but in her clear and bright hopeful eyes, he couldn't bring himself to say no, so Grandpa opened his mouth and ate another piece of candy.

  "Grandpa, eat candy."

  Grandpa: "......" Eat.

  "Grandpa, eat candy."

  Grandpa: "......" Eat.

  "Grandpa, eat candy."

  Grandpa: "......" Eat.

  ···········

  "Grandpa, eat candy."

  Grandpa: "......" Eat.

  Grandpa had already popped more than ten pieces of milk candy into his mouth, and his cheeks couldn't help but puff out like his little granddaughter's. One piece of candy was sweet, but ten pieces were so sweet they turned bitter, especially the milk candy, which also had a creamy aftertaste that left Grandpa feeling conflicted.

  Just as Little Jing was about to turn around and grab the sugar, Grandpa finally lost his composure. He swiftly picked up his little granddaughter and stuffed her into Grandma's arms, then turned around nonchalantly and swept into the study like a gust of wind. The door closed with a thud, and all was quiet once more.

  Xiao Jingchen sat in his grandmother's arms, blinking his eyes blankly, and his two small paws touched each other. He didn't understand the situation at all. Grandpa didn't like to eat sweets very much, did he? He had eaten so many, why did he still look unhappy?

  The living room fell silent for five seconds, and then the earth-shaking laughter almost lifted the ceiling. Even Bai Xijing's mouth corners twitched. The three uncles clenched their fists and pounded the table wildly, laughing until tears welled up in their eyes. The four older male cousins didn't dare to be so boisterous, covering their mouths as they laughed until their bodies shook. The three aunts silently pursed their lips, not making a sound. Dashan was almost kneeling on the ground. The only one who didn't laugh was Xiaoshan, but his mouth and eye corners twitched at a frequency that seemed to be approaching epilepsy.

  It's clear that these little rascals are laughing at themselves, but amazingly, Old White Grandpa is quietly hiding in his study without making a peep. This makes the sons who have been "bullied" by him for decades feel extremely pleased and thrilled!

  Looking at Xiaojing's innocent and naive appearance, Grandma couldn't help but hold her face and rub it hard, laughing so hard that her belly hurt. "Grandma's dear granddaughter, you're really too cute, give me a kiss, muah~~~~"

  Although she didn't understand what everyone was laughing at, Xiaojing also understood that her grandmother was praising her. So the little girl puffed up her red face and smiled shyly, "Grandma is also very cute."

  "Pffft——" The laughter that had begun to subside reached a new climax.

  Third Uncle Bai You Jing wiped away tears and said, "Oh dear, Dad never eats sweets, today he's eaten a lifetime's worth of sugar."

  Fourth Brother Bai Ze Chen couldn't help but give Xiao Jingchen a thumbs up, "Sister, you're really awesome."

  Xiao Jingchen had heard this phrase many times, and every time the junior monks of Wuseng Hall were beaten up, they would say "Little Shifu is so fierce!" So Xiao Jingchen subconsciously retorted, "Actually, it's not that fierce, you can do it too!"

  Bai Ze Chen: "......"

  It seems like today is going to be a day when the Bai family's reputation will be turned upside down by laughter!
