Scarlett put the tea on the desk aside." Grandpa, have a cup of tea." Rowan, who was standing on the balcony, looked back at her. "The scenery in your neighborhood is beautiful." Scarlett smiled. "Let's have something to eat later, and then you may rest for a while. In the evening, I'll take you and aunt out for a walk." It was not a good choice to go out during the day, as it was scorching.
Now that Rowan planned to stay in Juanton City for several months, he had enough time.
He nodded. "Okay." Then he walked in with his hands behind his back. After drinking a cup of tea made by Scarlett, he sighed slightly. "I'm getting older." Seven or eight years ago, he and David usually went to climb mountains. It took them three or five hours to reach the summit each time, and Rowan didn't feel tired at all.
But now, he felt tired after taking two trains and a plane.

"It's not up to you whether you're old or not.
Seeing that he had finished the cup of tea, Scarlett replenished his cup with some more tea.
Rowan, who was usually serious, was just an amiable little old man in front of Scarlett. "Then what does it depend on?" Scarlett raised her lips and then said slowly, "Of course, it depends on..." "Your eyes have the final say. Grandpa, your eyes are clear. Though your legs are not that strong, you are full of energy while speaking.
You still look hale and hearty. Though time and tide wait for no man, you don’t have to think that you're getting older.
Scarlett didn't know how to flatter others, and these words were her inner thoughts.
In her opinion, Rowan was old in age, but he was still mentally young and vigorous.
Although he felt that he was getting old, he refused to give in to old age.
Rowan figured out many things after David's death. In the past few months, Rowan had traveled to many places with Yale and had become much more optimistic than before.
Hearing Scarlett's words. Rowan laughed." Why did you say the same thing as your brother? Have you colluded to flatter me?" "How is it possible? Larry and | just tell the truth." As soon as Scarlett finished speaking, she saw Rowan yawning. She knew that he became tired, so she didn’t say much and asked him to rest for a while. Then Rowan went into his room with the tea.

Viviana had also packed up. Now she was sitting on the sofa and drinking water.
When she saw Scarlett come out, she smiled. "Your home is decorated so warmly and beautifully!" Scarlett bought this house a long time ago, and she decorated it based on her memories of the home where she and her parents had lived. Although the style was much newer, her present house still retained the warmth of the past.
Hearing Viviana's words, Scarlett didn't hide her thoughts from Viviana. "It's kind of like my old home." Viviana became stunned. When she reacted, she comforted Scarlett. "Don’t be sad. Now you have two homes." Actually, Scarlett didn't feel heartbroken, as it had been a long time since her parents ' death. She had indeed grieved over the loss of her parents, but now she was not that sad. As years passed, she missed her parents and just wished that they had accompanied her longer.
Besides, as Viviana said, she had two homes now, one being her and Raymond's small family and the other was the Tank's family.
"Yeah."
