"Kai Xin! Kai Xin!" Kai An whispered at his sister .
When she heard someone calling for her, she blinked and quickly got out of her thoughts .
Looking at Kai An, she asked, "What?"
"Nai Nai is asking you about your boyfriend's occupation . "
Turning to Grandma Zhen, Kai Xin respectfully answered, "He's a businessman . "
"He sounds old," said Grandma Zhen .
Hearing her grandmother's first opinion of him, Kai Xin chuckled, "Is he? I supposed he does have a deeper set of voice . "
"How old is he?" asked Mr . Zhen .
Kai An raised a brow curiously when he heard his father . It was rare for him to take an initiative to ask about Kai Xin's life .
Without any intention to mince words, Kai Xin answered truthfully, "40 . Well, he just had his birthday, so he's 41 now . "
"What?!"
Everyone except from Kai An who knew gasped . Mr . Zhen even dropped his chopsticks when he heard .
"Why are you dating such an old man, Kai Xin?" asked An Xin with a worried voice . She looked briefly at Thomas before looking back at Kai Xin,
"If you need money, you could have just told us . I have some savings left, and I'm sure Daddy would help you out if money is tight . "
Mr . Zhen had merely thought that Kai An was silly and doing it to spite him but with An Xin's words, he cannot help but to think negatively of Kai Xin .
"Zhen Kai Xin! How can you sell yourself to a man just for money? Is that what you learned in that school of yours!"
Kai An tried to defend his sister, "Dad, that's not like it . . . "
Turning to Grandma Zhen, he continued, " . . . He came over and asked Mum for permission to date Kai Xin . It wasn't like what An Xin thought . "
Mr . Zhen bang the table and snapped, "What is wrong with your mother?!"
Grandma Zhen sighed, "Zhen Shao Bang, are you doing this in front of me again?"
Mr . Zhen toned down his voice as he turned to speak to his mother, "Mother, I did not raised her just so that she can sell her body to a man!"
Angered that he dragged her mother into this, Kai Xin snapped, "Don't you dare talk about my mother!"
With a cold voice that was on par with DX, she continued, " . . . And you have never raised me, Mr . Zhen . Don't think too highly of yourself . "
"Kai Xin…"
Grandma Zhen sighed when the father and daughter started fighting again .
Even thought the two rarely met, but everytime they do, they ended up arguing .
In a soft voice, Grandma Zhen pleaded, "Don't talk to your father like that . . . Please . . . "
Kai Xin had wanted to talk more with her grandmother but it looked like she would have to do this on another date .
With a bow, she apologized, "I'm sorry, Nai Nai . I'm really glad to see you but I have to go . I will see you again before you leave . "
After she handed Grandma Zhen the bags of souvenirs that DX prepared, she gave her a kiss on the cheek .
Looking at Kai An, she said, "Take care of Nai Nai . If she wants anything, just buy it for her . Everything is on me . "
Without waiting for him to answer, she rushed out of the room .
