Knock knock knock!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Qiao Chuxu disregarded their gazes and kowtowed towards the gate of Dingtianque.

"Holy crap? Master Qiao is kowtowing to someone? Wait, what did he just say? Son? Wasn't Master Qiao's son, Qiao Suiyue, already dead in an accident?"

"It's said to be another son, who was accidentally lost many years ago. Do you remember when the Abyss Demons led a large group of alien races to besiege the capital?"

"I remember! I thought I was going to die, so I rushed into the street and started randomly performing superheroes."

"It is said that the Abyss Demons came to Kyoto because of Qiao Siye's other son, Qiao Suinian!"

"Is Master Qiao's son really that powerful?"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, clearly extremely curious about Qiao Suinian.

People are naturally curious, so what kind of bizarre story could there be about a father kneeling down and kowtowing to his son in public? The onlookers had already imagined a 52-episode family drama.

Qiao Chuxu banged his head so hard that blood soon appeared on his forehead.

At this moment, the gate of Dingtianque slowly opened, and everyone's attention was drawn to it. A man with a very honest and simple appearance walked out and calmly looked at Qiao Chuxu.

"Nian'er...you've finally decided to see me?" Qiao Chuxu was overcome with emotion, tears streaming down his face. This man, who was as strong as an eagle, couldn't help but shed tears of sorrow.

"Father!"

Qiao Suinian took three steps in two and hugged Qiao Chuxu directly.

"Father! I thought I would never see you again!"

Two streams of tears also flowed down Qiao Suinian's face as she tightly embraced Qiao Chuxu, a scene of filial piety between father and son.

Qiao Chuxu was stunned and stood there at a loss. He had thought about all kinds of reactions and coping strategies when he came, but he never expected that Qiao Suinian would hug him and cry her heart out.

However, he was a shrewd old fox and quickly adjusted his mindset.

"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about? Never underestimate a father's determination. Where the gods cannot reach, a father can!"

The two embraced tightly, their genuine emotions drawing envy from countless onlookers.

"No matter what happened in the past, or what misunderstandings we had, it's all in the past now. There's no such thing as a grudge that lasts overnight between a father and son."

Qiao Chuxu withdrew his hand and gently wiped away the tears on Qiao Suinian's face.

"Yes! Alright, I will listen to my father." Qiao Suinian's eyes were sincere, and his clear gaze revealed his pure heart.

“Good boy, come on, come home with Dad!” Qiao Chuxu grabbed Qiao Suinian’s wrist.

"But Father... I... I killed Qiao Shan, how can I face the Qiao family?" Qiao Suinian's expression twitched.

Qiao Chuxu took a deep breath, his expression hardening as if he had made a difficult decision.

“Your mother and I have made up our minds. We’d rather not stay in the Qiao family, a place devoid of human warmth! You pack your things, I’ll pick up your mother, and once we leave the Qiao family, the three of us can still live a happy and fulfilling life.”

"Really? That's great!" Qiao Suinian exclaimed excitedly. "I don't have much to pack, Dad, let's go!"

"Alright!" Qiao Chuxu smiled gently. He took Qiao Suinian with him and headed straight for the Qiao family.

Given Qiao Chuxu's status, no one in the Qiao family dared to stop him, and he soon received Ji Jinlan.

The moment Ji Jinlan saw Qiao Suinian, tears instantly streamed down her face.

"My child! My child!"

Ji Jinlan hugged Qiao Suinian tightly, tears streaming down her face, as if she wanted to express all the longing in her heart through her tears.

"Mom, it's alright now. Everything will be fine once we leave the Qiao family." Qiao Suinian smiled and patted Ji Jinlan on the back.

“Yes, everything will be fine once we leave the Qiao family. I’ve packed everything.” Ji Jinlan pulled out a large backpack, which Qiao Suinian quickly took.

"Honey, where are we going after we leave the Qiao family?" Ji Jinlan asked Qiao Chuxu.

Qiao Chuxu was stunned for a moment, then smiled nonchalantly.

"The world is vast, with lakes, seas, and green mountains; where is not home? Don't worry, would your father and I let you go hungry?"

“How about we go to Jinghai City? I grew up there, and I have some influence there. What do you think?” Qiao Suinian suggested.

"Okay! I'll listen to my son and go to Jinghai to enjoy a life of leisure!"

People are in high spirits when they have good news. Qiao Chuxu was in a great mood after leaving the Qiao family, and he couldn't help but smile the whole way.

They decided to have one last meal in Kyoto before leaving this troublesome city.

Qiao Suinian didn't say much. If Qiao Chuxu and Ji Jinlan were truly willing to abandon that ignorant family, he would be happy to accept them.

They arranged the dinner at Lanyue Tower, and this time no one else came to disturb them; it was just the three of them.

"Come on, Nian'er, have a few drinks with Dad! You've grown up and I've never even drunk a single drop of alcohol with you!"

Qiao Chuxu filled Qiao Suinian's glass with wine. The clear liquid slid down her tongue and into her throat, burning hot.

The father and son drank and chatted, while Ji Jinlan listened with a smile, occasionally refilling their glasses.

The two drank more and more enthusiastically, and after a few rounds of drinks, Qiao Suinian seemed to have drunk too much. He slumped onto the table, drowsy and fell asleep.

"Year? Year?"

Qiao Chuxu nudged Qiao Suinian, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Qiao Suinian did not react.

"How are you? Sound asleep?" Ji Jinlan asked softly from the side.
