Chapter 17 Guardian

Grandma Feng held Jiang Songchu's hand and said, "Little Chu, if you trust Grandma Feng, please bring the calligraphy to our home. Although I'm too old to take care of it myself, I can have the nanny help. Don't worry!"

"Also, if you have any difficulties, you can come to Grandma Feng."

Hearing the old lady's warm words, Jiang Songchu felt a surge of warmth in his heart and was filled with gratitude for Grandma Feng.

At this moment, Xie Linxiao slowly walked down the stairs, and when his gaze fell on Jiang Songchu, a hint of surprise flashed across his brow.

When he learned from Grandma Feng that Jiang Songchu would be bringing the kitten from yesterday to his home, he did not show the slightest objection.

After all, he quite liked cats, and with a spacious house, adding another little guy wouldn't be a problem.

However, it was Jiang Songchu, who was standing right in front of him, who truly inspired him to have a heart-to-heart talk.

"Hello, Mr. Xie!" Jiang Songchu greeted him softly with her characteristic gentle politeness.

Xie Linxiao waved his hand gently, his smile as warm as the spring sunshine: "You're too kind. I'll call you Xiao Chu like Grandma does. You don't need to call me Mr. Xie anymore, just call me Brother Xiao."

After speaking, he leisurely sat down.

"Speaking of which, when I first saw you yesterday, you looked familiar, but I didn't immediately recognize you. Later, after checking, I found out that you were the female student from No. 39 Middle School who performed martial arts. It's truly amazing."

His tone was full of genuine admiration.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Songchu couldn't help but rub his forehead and smile wryly.

Ning An had already informed her about the performance trending on social media.

Ning An was stunned and shocked when she found out.

Seeing her account's views suddenly surpass 100,000 and gain 10,000 to 20,000 new followers, the little guy was terrified and tearfully apologized to Jiang Songchu.

Jiang Songchu not only did not blame him, but was also grateful.

After all, her mission was to promote ancient culture, and Ning An's actions undoubtedly helped her expand her influence. She was more than grateful; how could she possibly blame her?

Jiang Songchu never expected that Xie Linxiao had also seen that video.

She could only reply, "It is indeed me, thank you for the compliment, Brother Xiao."

"What video? Let me see it."

Grandma Feng's curiosity was piqued, and she asked eagerly.

So Xie Linxiao took out the video and played it for Grandma Feng.

Grandma Feng watched with great interest, praising her repeatedly: "Xiao Chu, you are so amazing! You even know martial arts! Your movements are absolutely incredible!"

The two men's compliments made Jiang Songchu's cheeks blush slightly.

She couldn't help but marvel at how straightforward and enthusiastic modern people's praise truly is.

Xie Linxiao straightened his expression after the commotion and said to Jiang Songchu, "Xiao Chu, our Xie family runs an entertainment company. We are currently preparing for a TV series, and the female lead needs martial arts skills for a few scenes."

"We had already chosen a stand-in, but after our team saw your video, we felt you were more suitable. We just didn't know how to contact you, and then I ran into you. Haha, the payment is negotiable. Are you interested?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Songchu initially wanted to refuse, but then she thought that if she participated in this TV series, wouldn't that also be considered a way to promote ancient martial arts?

After receiving the system's unequivocal affirmation, her expression gradually became serious, and her eyes shone with gratitude: "Thank you so much for your recognition, Brother Xiao. I'm willing to give it a try."

However, there was a hint of hesitation in her words as she bit her lower lip and said, "But as far as I know, I am not yet sixteen years old. If I want to participate in the film, I must get my guardian's consent."

At this point, her brow furrowed slightly, as if she found it difficult to speak: "However, I am currently facing a problem, regarding my guardian..."

Then, Jiang Songchu explained her situation to Xie Linxiao in detail. She was still troubled by the question of whether Qiu Fanghua was really her guardian.

Xie Linxiao listened quietly to Jiang Songchu's story, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper, his eyes revealing concern and contemplation: "Xiao Chu, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

Jiang Songchu thought for a moment and then replied, "My idea is actually very simple. As long as I can prove that she has financial problems, I can find another guardian. I can support myself, so I plan to hire someone to be my guardian for a year. Once I turn sixteen, I can terminate the contract with the other party."

At this moment, Grandma Feng's kind voice came in: "Xiao Chu, you don't need to hire anyone. This old lady can be your guardian."

Upon hearing this, Xie Linxiao looked at his grandmother with some surprise, not understanding why she favored Jiang Songchu so much, and was even willing to become her guardian.

He advised, with a wry smile, "Grandma, you're too old to be Xiao Chu's guardian anymore. It's too exhausting."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Feng's face immediately showed displeasure. She glared at Xie Linxiao and muttered, "What's so great about me? You think I'm in your way now?"

Sure enough, no matter how old a woman is, she will care about being told that she is "old".

Seeing this, Xie Linxiao quickly reached out and patted Grandma Feng's back, coaxing her, "Grandma, that's not what I meant. I was just worried you'd get tired! How could you be old? My grandma is a person who is blessed with boundless happiness and longevity!"

Jiang Songchu couldn't help but laugh as he watched this scene, and chimed in, "Grandma Feng, Brother Xiao is right. You will definitely live a long and healthy life. Just listen to Brother Xiao. I will handle this myself and won't trouble you."

Grandma Feng looked at Jiang Songchu, then at Xie Linxiao, and seemed to suddenly realize something. She clapped her hands and laughed happily, "Then why not let Xiaoxiao be your guardian? From now on, you'll be my granddaughter, and Xiaoxiao will be your brother!"

Xie Linxiao and Jiang Songchu were both dumbfounded for a moment. This was too sudden!

After the two came to their senses, Grandma Feng urged again, "It's settled then! Xiao Xiao, go and resolve Xiao Chu's guardianship issue. From now on, Xiao Chu will be part of our family."

Before Jiang Songchu could refuse, Xie Linxiao looked at the girl in front of him again, suddenly smiled, and replied, "Okay! From now on, Xiao Chu will be my little sister!"

"Xiao Chu, don't refuse. Grandma likes you so much, and I'm willing to be your older brother. As the saying goes, 'Those destined to meet will find each other even if they are a thousand miles apart,' this is fate!"

Fate brings us together across thousands of miles; without fate, we would never meet.

Hearing this, Jiang Songchu was deeply moved. Since she also liked Grandma Feng, why should she reject this sincere care?
