CHAPTER 500
After Xia Xinyi left, Bai Renxiang went back to the study as she left her phone there. So, she decided to make a call to Old man Jiang. In a few rings the call got connected and the old man\'s voice rang into her ears.
"Ah! My precious granddaughter. I almost thought that you have forgotten about this old man."
"How can I forget about you, grandpa? If I ever want to forget anyone, you would not even be on the list," Bai Renxiang smiled as she sat on the black leather swivel chair behind the desk.
"Tsk. That Li boy is feeding you with too much cheese," Old man Jiang clicked his tongue and said.
Bai Renxiang threw her head back as a peal of hearty laughter left her lips. She gently turned the chair left and right.
"And who thought you that, grandpa?"
"I learnt a little from my fun in-laws. It was good right? Your grandpa is knowing a lot now," Old man Jiang said with a cheeky smile.
"Too much cheese? I can\'t believe you guys. What in the world are they teaching you?" She shook her head.
"Well, a lot of fun stuffs if you ask me. Did you know that rubbing some kind of paste on your face at night makes it smooth the next day?" Old man Jiang asked her of his knew discovery.
"Of course, grandpa. I do it once it a while. Everyone knows that," Bai Renxiang answered.
"I never knew it could do that. I used to time it weird when your grandma used to do it. But now I know why her face was always smooth to touch," Old man Jiang exclaimed.
"Hehehe," she chuckled. "Oh, grandpa. You out of date. I thinking should thank our in-laws from bringing you up to speed," she said.
"Tsk. Why you brat? How can you say your old man is out of date? Check for my name on your social media account and see how trending I am," the oldan talked pompously.
"Gasp... Grandpa, you now have a social media account? Wow," Bai Renxiang gasped in surprise.
She quickly drew the chair with her closer to the table and reached for Li Fengjin\'s laptop. She opened it and typed in the password.
"I do have an account on Weibo before. Tingzhe and Jun helped me recover everything because I forgot about it after your grandma passed on."
Bai Renxiang placed the call on speaker and placed it on the table. She quickly searched for Weibo icon among all other icons on display and clicked on it.
"What is your user name?" She asked as she was already waiting on the search tab.
"Jiang WeiLan," came old man Jiang\'s answer.
Bai Renxiang paused for a few seconds before typing away in the keyboard. Not more that a few seconds, she was able to get his account.
The display picture he used was that of him and his late wife, Jiang Ruolan. Bai Renxiang unknowningly smiled on seeing it. They both looked happy in picture.
"Have you seen it? Did you get the real one? You see there are a lot of people using that name. I was quite furious but they explained to e that there are so many people who had the same name as us," Old man Jiang explained.
"I know , grandpa. I spotted the account right away. And grandma... She is very beautiful," Bai Renxiang said in a soft voice.
She did not know what all of a sudden, she felt grief wash over her and tears gathered in her eyes. She screwed through their post back in the past and could not help but tear up.
If she was like this because she just saw the picture, she wondered how her grandpa survived alone for this long in this world without his wife.
They looked inseparable in each lectures and she could tell that they did everything thing together. It was not a surprise that they had a joint account in the social media platform.
"Renxiang," Old man Jiang\'s voice pulled her out of her train of thought.
"Ahem! Yes, where were we? Ah! Yes. We were talking about how trending you are on Weibo," she quickly switched the sad mood to a happy one.
"Silly child. This old man does not feel so hurt anymore when he remembers your grandma."
"Grandpa, I... I am so sorry for what you have had to go through alone," Bai Renxiang choked in her sobs as tears flowed down her eyes.
"Aigo. This child... I just said that I am okay. Your grandma still leaves in my heart and that is I why I can\'t grow old there. She would not want me or your mother and even you to feel sad like this. So stop crying okay?" he coaxed her.
Bai Renxiang nodded as if he was right in front of her. She wiped her eyes and cheek clean of all the tears before letting put a small smile.
"That\'s right. Grandma would not want is to be sad... Look at how cute you both are. I am going to save all these pictures."
"I permit you because you did not get the chance to meet her. But let\'s get back to what made us talk about this. Check out my most recent post. Hurry."
Bai Renxiang chuckled a little. She could here the rush in his voice and she did as he told. But she did not expect to see what she was seeing now.
A picture of an smiling Old man Jiang using the dog nose and ear filter. And what is more is that he had gotten over thousands of views and followers.
All under an hour of the post.
"My God, grandpa. Just really are trending. No, I should say that you are so popular," Bai Renxiang exclaimed.
"Hehehe. I told you so, didn\'t I? I might be old but I ain\'t so out of date, young lady," he laughed cockingly.
