    The owner turned around testily and almost broke out swearing until he saw Ling Tianya’s face. The dust that covered her body and the messy hair didn’t change the fact that she was drop dead gorgeous.


    Then the owner remembered about his restaurant and lost interest in appreciating beauty.


    “This old hag was the one that caused the ident. If I don’t go after her, you want me to go after you? Do you want to pay for her?” The owner sounded extremely pissed off. He waved his hand and dust flew up again.


    Ling Tianya looked at the restaurant owner, and then at the disheveled olddy. Dressed in the clothes of a house servant, the olddy with a wrinkled face was still shaken by the ident and apparently bbergasted.


    “I can call my grandson. He wille, and he will pay...” The olddy took out a phone, but the screen was shattered, and it wouldn’t turn on. “Crap! I don’t remember my grandson’s phone number. It’s saved in the phone, I can’t remember...The phone number of my house... I thought I remembered them all...but...” The olddy was anguished, hitting her own head repeatedly, “Why can’t I remember...”


    To Ling Tianya, the olddy in front her reminded her of someone she knew. If she remembered it correctly, her maternal grandmother would be the same age as this olddy. When Ling Tianya was a kid, every time she visited her maternal grandma, she would make handmade noodles for her. Ever since her mother’s affair, the Ling Family cut off allmunication with Ling Tianya’s maternal family and didn’t allow her to keep in touch with her grandma. Ling Tianya really couldn’t recall the taste of those noodles, or the face of her grandma, but seeing the olddy made Ling Tianya feel a strange yet familiar feeling and made her heart ache a bit.


    “Don’t you pretend, old woman! If you don’t have money, you can’t leave!” The owner said harshly, not the caring about thedy’s age or the unreasonable method of payment.


    Even though Ling Tianya didn’t know the olddy, she thought that she must be someone’s grandma, and must have her own children and grandchildren. Therefore, she decided to help the olddy on behalf of her family, also as a way to find closure with her own grandma.


    The more restless the restaurant owner became, the more scared the olddy felt. The owner was losing patience and reached out to grab the olddy before being blocked by Ling Tianya.


    “What are you doing? Mind your own business!”


    Ling Tianya sneered at the owner, “Are you going to y rough with an olddy?”


    “What has it to do with you? Save your saint bullshit and get lost! My shop was destroyed, you’re telling me she doesn’t have to pay?”


    “You are right about getting paid for your loss, but if youy hands on the olddy and something happened to her, not only will you not get paid, you may get yourself in some real trouble.” Ling Tianya pushed the owner’s hand back with a smile, “We’re a civil society now and you are a grown man. Why are you still using such primitive methods to solve problems?”


    The restaurant owner was stunned by Ling Tianya’s argument. He looked at the olddy’s shabby clothes and the car she was driving. She didn’t seem like anyone important; rather, she looked like a housekeeper who was out getting groceries. The owner didn’t take Ling Tianya’s words too seriously, but he didn’t want toy hands on the olddy anymore.


    Ling Tianya saw that the insurance decal on the car’s windshield looked new. So, she climbed inside of the car and found the vehicle registration booklet and themercial insurance card that was inserted in between.


    Many people liked to put their insurance card and registration together, at least Ling Tianya did it herself. Hence, she followed her instinct and quickly found those things.


    Ling Tianya handed the insurance card to the restaurant owner, “Call the insurancepany. This car is insured, so they’ll pay you. If they can’t pay you, at least they’ll put you in touch with the insurer, who’s likely to be this olddy’s grandson. It’s not hard to figure this out, why can’t you just be civil? What’s the point of scaring an olddy like this?”
