Ruan Qi felt deeply helpless about her boyfriend's extravagant act of digging a fish pond. But, she had to admit, Xi Jiu's act truly won Grandpa Ruan's favor.
Regarding the relationship between Ruan Qi and Xi Jiu, the attitude of the Ruan family had always been rather ambiguous.
Yang Liu calmly accepted it, Grandma Ruan fully supported it with both hands, and Ruan Fengmian had a thousand refusals but no say.
As for Grandpa Ruan, he was the only one in the Ruan family who maintained a neutral stance.
He didn't support nor oppose, seeming to have little presence in the Ruan family.
However, after a few days of calm observation, Xi Jiu keenly realized that this seemingly insignificant Old Master Ruan was actually the spiritual pillar holding up the entire Ruan family.
