“Do you have an entire Black Forest cake? I want to bring one back for Su Xun’s grandfather to taste. The cake wasnt too sweet, so Grandpa Su would probably like it.”

When Gao Yuan heard that Xi Wan was going to bring it to the old man to taste, she immediately said, “There is one but there is sugar added to the cake so it might not be good for the elderly.”

“What should we do then?” Xi Wan asked.

Gao Yuan suggested, “But if you have time, I can make a new one for you now. There won’t be any sugar in it, and it’ll be replaced with xylitol instead.”

Xi Wan immediately agreed when she heard that it could be replaced with xylitol. “Then make one now. I’m not in a hurry.”

Xi Wan waited for two hours before she took the Black Forest cake and rushed to the Su familys old residence She arrived just in time for dinner.

“Grandpa, look what I brought for you.” Xi Wan handed the cake to the maid.

Su Xiu was so happy that his mouth was wide opened when he saw his granddaughter-in-law was here to see him with a gift. “You can just come if you want to. Why did you bring a gift with you?”

Xi Wan took a bowl and scooped rice for the old man. “Su Xun bought a dessert shop for me yesterday. I happened to have time today, so I went over and found a very delicious cake. I thought that you like cake too, so I brought it for you.”

“You’re so thoughtful!” The old man took the bowl with a smile.

“What’s wrong with that? You usually dote on me and think of me for all the good things. As a junior, I should be filial to you!” Xi Wan shook her head and scooped some rice for herself. “This cake is specially made with xylitol instead of ordinary sugar. It’s sweet but not greasy. You don’t have to worry about affecting your blood sugar. You can try some after dinner later.”

Su Xun’s parents had gone out today, so only the old man was at home. Therefore, Xi Wan did not have to deal with Su Xun’s parents.

The grandfather and granddaughter-in-law pair had a joyous dinner. Under Xi Wan’s suggestion, the maids then placed two rocking chairs in the garden. The grandfather and granddaughter-in-law pair went to the garden to chat.

“Is Su Xun treating you well?” The old man was rocking in his rocking chair. Xi Wan also nodded. “Pretty good. He even sent me flowers this morning.”

[Host, you said this morning that Su Xun was apologizing to you.] The system exposed her.

Xi Wan did not care if her true thoughts were exposed. She replied to the system, “Yes, but it also proves that he cares about me.”

The old man did not know the relationship between them. He only felt that his grandson had been enlightened and knew how to dote on his wife. “That’s good, that’s good. This child, Su Xun is just a little cold and aloof. His heart is so good that he knows how to dote on others. Wanwan, if he does not do well sometimes, please bear with him.”

“Grandpa, what are you talking about? Su Xun and I are husband and wife. I naturally won’t ignore him because of a small matter. Don’t worry about that! Xi Wan said naturally.

M/hen Su Xiu heard his granddaughter-in-law say this, he felt much more at ease. At least after spending some time with her, he knew that Xi Wan was not the kind of person who would make things difficult for herself. Hence, Xi Wan’s words could not have been to deceive him.

Xi Wan accompanied the old man to look at the stars for a while before returning to her own villa before nine o’clock at night.

It was a coincidence that Su Xun called when Xi Wan had just finished showering and was about to go to bed.

“Hello?” Xi Wan answered the call.

Su Xun’s effective voice came through. “Are you ready to sleep?

Xi Wan answered perfunctorily, “I’m already asleep.”

“This is the first time I’ve seen someone answering the phone while sleeping.” The smile on Su Xun’s face deepened.

Xi Wan rolled over on the bed. “That’s right. Didn’t you see it yesterday? To be precise, it’s the second time today.”

The smile on Su Xun’s face did not change. He knew that Xi Wan was indirectly accusing him. He was not really angry because he had called her in the middle of the night to wake her up.

Su Xun suppressed his smile and apologized to her in a soft voice, “I’m sorry about yesterday. It was my negligence. I forgot that we have a time difference now. How was the bouquet of flowers today? Do you like it?”

“It’s quite nice.” Xi Wan replied perfunctorily.

Su Xun knew her personality and did not take her perfunctory words to heart.

“If you dont like it, I’ll get Zhang Wen to send you something else tomorrow.”

When she heard that he wanted to continue sending her things, Xi Wan quickly stopped him. “No, if you really want to apologize, why don’t you just transfer the money for the gift to me? I’ll be happy and you will also be happy as well in that case!”

In Su Xun’s eyes, Xi Wan was already a little money-grubber. “You’re right..”
