Lunch was a private time between Liliana, Talia and Old Master Ding. None of the helpers, including the butler stood waiting for them in the dining room. The former was able to act as freely as she wanted.
Liliana didn't bring up the good news during lunch. Mostly she asked about Old Master Ding's well-being. She also mentioned that she contacted Former Patriarch Ding several times whenever the old man was conscious.
"Great-grandpa looks healthier," commented Liliana with a smile. She clipped some stir-fried chicken cubes and put them into her rice bowl, "I hope I can see him again soon."
That was Liliana's wish. The huge distance between the two countries was not an obstacle to her.
Even though Former Patriarch Ding seemed as if he had regained some vitality, Liliana was aware that the old man was still weak. She wished to get to spend more time with him before the unavoidable arrived.
