The servant was already sitting on the ground nearby, crying uncontrollably. Ning Xiaofei glanced at her and knew how she felt, but didn't offer much comfort.

Elder Ji's closed eyes gently trembled and slowly opened. It took a while for them to focus on Ning Xiaofei's face.
"Grandfather, it's Xiaofei!" Ning Xiaofei held his hand, bending down to get closer to him, "It's Xiaofei, I'm here to see you!"
