"Hello, Grandma Huo!" Chu Tingting followed her mother forward and greeted softly, her voice as clear and sweet as a songbird's, making her instantly endearing.
Mrs. Huo, having been upset by Lin Banxia earlier, now found herself charmed by the polite and well-bred young lady, gaining an immediate fondness for her.
