Chapter 1008: The Cripple Who Just Arrived
Ling Sheng was playing together with Xiaoqi and the two children on the perimeters. When she saw her grandma teaching someone to dance while her grandfather was standing on the spot like a pillar without budging, she shook her head helplessly and sighed. Since he was already here, who was her grandpa angry with?!
Xiaoqi tugged at her and looked up questioningly. “Mommy, what’s Great-grandpa doing?”
Ling Sheng said, “Looking at your great-grandmother!”
Xiaoqi asked, “Why doesn’t Great-grandpa dance with Great-grandma?”
Ling Sheng said, “You’re just a child. Why do you have so many questions? Isn’t Great-grandma teaching others how to dance?”
“But for the past few days, Great-grandma always had to dance as a demonstration for others.” As Xiaoqi spoke, he started counting with his fingers. “Yesterday was Grandpa Zhang. The day before yesterday was Grandpa Ma. Two days before yesterday was Grandpa Zhao. Three days ago was…”
Ling Sheng tapped the little fella’s head and laughed. “Okay, I’ve got it.”
He’s just a kid but he’s such a smarty-pants!
Huo Xiao was waiting indeed. It was definitely impossible for him to go over and ask for a dance. He wanted to wait for his wife to ask him to dance. However, he had waited for a long time, yet his wife was still giving guidance to others!
A number of old men had appeared beside him at some point in time. The older ones were in their 70s, while the younger ones were only in their 50s. They were all wearing suits and leather shoes, and their faces were aglow while they were in high spirits.
Huo Xiao realized that these old fellows were all staring at his wife. His cold eyes scanned them, itching to dig out their eyes and feed them to the dogs. His tone was displeased. “What are you looking at? Have you never seen a good-looking old lady?!”
“Aren’t you looking too?” Old Zhao looked at the old man beside him. Where had he come from? He hadn’t seen him before. He must have heard of Teacher Su and come to snatch her from them.
Huo Xiao sneered. It’s none of your damn business whether I’m looking at my wife. I can look at my own wife however I want.
“That’s right. When we came, you were right here staring at Teacher Su.” Old Zhang spat in disdain. “You old pervert.”
Huo Xiao sneered in his heart. You’re the bunch of old perverts!
“To tell you the truth, Teacher Su is pretty, but she has a husband. It’s useless even if you stare at her. She still won’t be yours,” Old Ma advised him kindly.
Huo Xiao harrumphed and rolled his eyes at them in disdain. I’m her husband! She’s mine! She belongs to me in life and after death!
“Even if she has a husband, he can still die. I heard that Teacher Su’s husband is already in his 70s. He’s 20 years older than her, and he’s in poor health,” Old Zhang lowered his voice.
Huo Xiao let out an angry snort. We’re clearly only 15 years apart! I’m in great health! I can live a long life! I can live longer than all of you people.
“What do you mean his health is poor? I heard that he’s bedridden and paralyzed. It’s really hard on such a talented woman like Teacher Su to be with a paralytic,” Old Ma sighed deeply, feeling indignant for her.
Huo Xiao held back a mouthful of blood in his throat. Just as he was about to teach this bunch of ignorant old fools talking nonsense a lesson…
Opposite them, Auntie Chen waved at them and shouted, “Teacher Su needs to do a demonstration over here! One of you come be her dance partner!”
Upon hearing that he could finally dance with his wife, Huo Xiao stopped arguing with the group of old geezers. They were just bitter that she wasn’t theirs. He couldn’t be bothered to get angry with them. He leaned on his walking stick and was about to go over.
However, Old Ma, who was beside him, reached out to pull him back. He looked at his legs. “Where are you going? You’re a cripple who just arrived. Can you dance? It’s all about first come, first served. Today, it’s Old Zhang’s turn to dance with Teacher Su. You can watch from here!”

Hotheaded, Huo Xiao’s eyes blazed with anger. Unable to help it, the fire he had bottled up for a few days finally exploded. He bellowed angrily, “She’s my wife! When I dance with my own wife, do I still have to be particular about ‘first come, first served’?!”
Look, look, look! What kind of people are these? They’re just a bunch of perverts!
When the old men heard the word ‘wife’, they were all dumbfounded and even a little flustered. If this person really was Teacher Su’s husband, then what they had just said… Errr… They had spoken ill of the person in question right in his face.
Ling Sheng could clearly hear her grandpa’s roar. When she looked up, she saw him arguing furiously with others. Before she could run over, she saw that her grandma had already approached him.
She beamed as she grabbed her son, who was about to run over, and pulled the little fella to her side. “Let’s play by ourselves.”
Upon seeing him lose his temper, Su Xiyin ran over hurriedly and looked at him. “Why are you being so fierce? If you don’t want to dance, go home with Sheng Sheng then!”
Upon hearing his wife’s words, Huo Xiao felt aggrieved. He looked at her and asked, “Are you dancing with me today or not?”
Su Xiyin said, “When did I say I wasn’t dancing with you?! You were just standing there by yourself so I thought you simply came to have a look!”
Huo Xiao picked up his walking stick and clasped it under his arm. Then, he raised his other arm and gave Su Xiyin a haughty look. His meaning was very obvious. Hurry up and come grab onto my arm.
Su Xiyin was amused by him. She walked over and held his arm. Upon seeing the old man’s triumphant smirk as he swaggered forward with his head held high—even his eyes and brows were lifted in a smile, she whispered to him, “For goodness’ sake, do you know how old you are this year?”
Huo Xiao tilted his head slightly and whispered in her ear, “Even if I attain immortality, you’re still my wife.”
Ling Sheng looked at her grandparents as they walked into the crowd hand in hand. After smiling at each other, they started dancing. They deliberately slowed down some of their movements to put on a demonstration for the other elders.
At this moment, Grandpa’s legs seemed to have completely recovered. They didn’t affect his dancing with Grandma at all. Their gazes met in a lingering show of affection. Every action and every glance perfectly showcased what decades-old chemistry vividly.
Xiaoqi tugged at her hand. “Mommy, Great-grandpa is still the best.”
Ling Sheng said, “How do you know?”
Xiaoqi said, “They don’t dance as well as Great-grandpa. Mommy, Great-grandma laughed really happily today.”
Ling Sheng asked, “Did your great-grandma laugh unhappily in the past?”
Xiaoqi said, “Great-grandma never laughed when she was dancing with others.”
Ling Sheng could not help but squat down and pinch her son’s face. “Aren’t you clever!”
However, Xiaoqi’s eyes suddenly lit up as he pointed to his left. “Mommy, it’s Dad!”
Ling Sheng turned around and saw the man standing on the path beside the square.
The streetlamp happened to be right above the man’s head. Warm orange light shone on his face, and his smile was full of warmth. He strode toward the mother-son duo with his long legs, holding two cotton candies in his hands too. A pink one was in the shape of a Hello Kitty, and the other was a handsome Bumblebee.
Xiaoqi had already run over in a hurry and taken the Bumblebee cotton candy that belonged to him. He pumped his short legs to keep up beside him and was as excited as a little bird that had flown out of a cage. His small mouth kept chattering nonstop.
