Chang saw the old man walking beside Jian and instantly jumped up pointing her finger at him.
"It's you!!"
"Dont point at people, that's rude." Li Hua calmly pulled Changs finger away from it target.
"You dont understand this guy was really weird with me just a minute ago."
Jian gave a sharp look at the man next to him and questioned Chang.
"What do you mean by he was weird with you?"
The man next to Jian began to laugh laudily at this, echoing throughout the small room.
"My you have quite the temper young lady, you might even have given my daughter a good run for her money."
Chang felt like a deflated balloon hearing him laughing at her actions.
"I merely meant to tease you a little, I did not think that you would rush off in a huff so quickly. You'll forever be at my grandson's mercy if you're so easily swayed with your emotions."
Chang blushed, hearing his words then it processed, 'grandson.'
"Wait, grandson?"
"Mm." Jian nodded and answered her. "Chang this is my grandfather, Hakim Al-hassan. Jid1 this is my lovely wife Chang Dumont."
Hakim strode forward removing a hand from his back, took Chang's hand that had been falling and planted a light ticklish peck on the back of it.
"Charmed." He replied in his gravelly accented voice. His eyes twinkled as he gave Chang a wink, his whole demeanor completely different from when she first met him.
Chang blushed and looked away embarrased. 'Me and big mouth, I cant believe I fingered at Jian's grandpa to "shove it."
Liang Jian Amal scowled seeing his Jid trying to seduce his woman and took her hand from him. Liang Jian Amal wrapped Chang in his arms protectively and stared hawkishly down at his Jid. He shook his head at the old man warning him not to do that again.
Hakim Al-hassan scowled up at his hafid2, there was no reason for him to act so possessivly, they were family! After all his taste would lie more in the graceful beauty seated at the table wearing light lilac qipao.
Li Hua commented innocently from the side to Hao Jin Ying.
"Oh my is it just me, or is it starting to stink like vinegar in here?"
Hao Jin Ying was unable to respond to this, but Chang understood what her mother meant and giggled nestled in Jian's arms, her face pressed against his chest.
The big man sighed and looked down, his pertubance gone instantly. He released her slightly so that he could see her face clearly, ignoring his Jid.
"Did you sleep well?"
Chang nodded her head enthusiastically, practically bursting with energy after all the sleeping she had done as of late. She placed her hands on his forearms as she answered enthusiastically.
"Yeah, I did, it's so beautiful here it's almost unreal, the room I'm in is absolutely magnificent. Oh and the gardens!"
Liang Jian Amal found himself grinning at her shining face.
"I'm glad you love it so far, this is only the tip though. There's much more for me to show you. Today I'm going to take you around the palace grounds and into the capital city Muzdahir."
"Sweet, I'm ready let's go! Mom, are you coming with us?"
"Hold on a moment wouldn't you like to clean yourself and change out of what you were wearing yesterday?"
Chang was so excited that she did not think about initially, but the idea appealed to her greatly.
"Actually yes, but I dont have anything to change into, besides the bag of my other already worn clothes."
"Already taken care of, I will show you where. It will be just me and you today, your mother expressed a wish to explore the gardens with my Jid."
"Oh, ok." Chang kissed her mom on the cheek and waved goodbye to Hao Jin Ying. As she passes by Hakim she wondered how she should say goodbye, he was technically her grandfather now and a handshake seemed a but too formal, and a wave wasn't quite appropriate either. Chang eventually came to a decision. She then gave him a kiss on the cheek and addressed him as Jian did.
"Bye bye Jid!"
Chang rushed off to the direction of the bedroom where she came, from figuring that would be where stuff would be.
Liang Jian Amal's face darkened seeing her kissing his Jid on the cheek but remained silent seeing the blissful expression on the older man's face. He snorted through his nose, he would just let today slip. He moved past him and hurriedly caught up to his wife and took her hand leading her out of the open air central area, through the large antechamber, and to the private resting area of Amira's wing of the palace.
