Qiao Dongliang immediately chimed in. “That’s right, Da Bao. Just return home with your younger brother and sister. Grandpa will be here. I won’t let anyone bully your mom. Just hurry home. The hospital is not a good place to stay in. Besides, you are children and it is Sunday tomorrow. You’ll have to return to school in the afternoon.
“Let’s go.” Zhai Sheng commanded without giving Da Bao any chance to refuse. With that, the three children had no choice but to leave quietly with Zhai Sheng.
But when Da Bao got into the car, his expression was even more serious than Zhai Sheng’s. “Dad, are you really not worried? I feel uneasy.” It was especially because it was his grandfather that he was even more so worried.

Was his grandpa never at home before his mother met his father? If his grandpa was around, how could those two women bully his mom and his father had to come to the rescue? Among everyone, his grandpa’s reputation was the worst and the most worrying.

“Your grandpa may be a little confused at times, but he’s softhearted. Besides, it’s been so many years, and Nan Nan has treated him so well. No matter how muddled he is, he should know when to do the right thing. And his love for the three of you is genuine. So, it’s not just because Nan Nan is his daughter. It’s also because of you three that he will never let Nan Nan lose even a single strand of hair so that you guys will never have to worry about Nan Nan.”
Zhai Sheng was very sure of this.
Da Bao chewed on his lip, clearly thinking of how Qiao Dongliang had stood up for him when Ding Jiayi was scolding him. Before their holiday, they had been depressed to see Qiao Dongliang once again.
Their beloved grandpa had treated their most beloved mother so badly in the past. Should they forgive their grandpa and continue to be on good terms with him?
This time, the triplets were even more hesitant because they knew that their grandpa loved them dearly. After a long time, Da Bao said gloomily, “I haven’t entirely forgiven grandpa. He may be a good grandpa, but he sure isn’t a good father. I pity Mom.” She seriously had rotten luck to have such a mother and sister, and even a father like this!
No wonder his mother was always smiling in his memories. That warm smile was just like the sun in winter that made people feel warm and blissful. Compared to her life in the past, his mom’s life was indeed as good as it could get. That’s why his mom tried very hard to convey happiness to the people around her as well.
Er Bao and San Bao remained silent, but that was about what they meant too. Er Bao rubbed his face impatiently. “Grandpa does treat us well, but why did he do that to Mom?” To say the truth, their mom treated their grandpa even better. The three of them could not really do anything and could not provide for their grandpa financially like their mom did.

What was the reason that their grandpa would not like someone who treated him so well?
This unthinkable phenomenon not only happened to their grandpa but also those two women whom they met today. Bizarre. It was truly bizarre.
To think that their mom who had grown up in such a strange household was normal and not bizarre at all.
“Let’s not talk about grandpa. I’m feeling so depressed now. I don’t want to hear that word.” San Bao was much more emotional. Before she clearly understood the situation, there was no way for her to be as close to her grandpa as she had once been. Now, when she heard the word ‘grandpa’, it felt as though a fire was burning within her chest and her whole body was on fire.

Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing knew that Qiao Nan had knocked Qiao Zijin down, and they had shouted at Zhai Sheng to pick the three children up.
The moment her grandchildren arrived home, Miao Jing immediately greeted them tenderly. “Are you alright? I hope you were not frightened.” Miao Jing especially took great care of San Bao and hugged her tightly within her embrace. “You’re a good girl, San Bao. If you can’t fall asleep tonight, come and find grandma. Grandma will accompany you tonight.” Miao Jing was afraid that San Bao would have nightmares tonight.
In fact, even an elder like Miao Jing had never seen such a bloody scene in her entire life. As a grandma, she had never even experienced it before, but the three children had experienced it today. How could Miao Jing not be upset or worried?
San Bao leaned against Miao Jing in her embrace and quietly grunted in agreement. Actually, San Bao wanted Qiao Nan to accompany her to sleep tonight. She would be much more at ease with her mother by her side. But with the situation in the hospital, San Bao knew that her mother might not even be able to come home to rest tonight.
She still had to return to school, and her mother, to work tomorrow. Her mother had it harder than her. She wanted her mother to have a good rest instead of worrying about her.
Since her grandma had said that she would accompany her, San Bao would definitely not reject it.
“Da Bao and Er Bao have each other’s company. Since you guys are brothers, why don’t you just put your beds together and sleep together tonight? How about your grandpa accompanies you guys tonight?” Now that she had dealt with her granddaughter, Miao Jing quickly came up with a solution for her grandsons.
Da Bao and Er Bao shared a knowing gaze before shaking their heads. “Grandma, don’t worry about Er Bao and me. We’re young men. Just comfort San Bao well.” It was pushing it a little far by asking them to sleep together like when they were still young children. And to have their grandpa sleep with them? Forget it. They could never do it.

The grown-up Da Bao and Er Bao understood their grandpa’s obsession with their grandma.
The moment their grandma said that she would sleep with San Bao, their grandpa, who was usually expressionless, immediately raised his eyebrow. They were not their grandma. If their grandpa were to sleep with them, he was sure to be upset. It was being filial to their grandpa that they refused the offer.
“Are you sure?” Miao Jing asked uneasily. “Don’t be too stubborn. San Bao may be a young lady, but you two are still young as well. It’s okay to admit that you’re scared. We’re at home. There’s nothing embarrassing about it. Your health is the most important. Do you understand?” Miao Jing was worried that Da Bao and Er Bao were just putting up a facade and acting brave. When the time came at night when they were alone, they would not dare to sleep with no adults around.
As for Zhai Sheng, no one assigned any tasks to Zhai Sheng at this time, not even the task of spending time with his two sons. That was because everyone in the Zhai family knew that Zhai Sheng’s most important mission was to return to the hospital to accompany Qiao Nan. After he finished his meal, he still had to pack some food and bring it over to Qiao Nan.
Er Bao shook his head. “There’s really no need. Da Bao and I share a room. There’s nothing for us to fear.” Although he spoke little today, it was not out of fear. It was just that there had been so much to take in today that the normally extroverted Er Bao kept his feelings to himself and needed time to think.
To have heard about and to have experienced for themselves were two very different things. Now that the triplets had seen Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi for themselves, their pity for Qiao Nan only intensified.
