Zhang Shu, however, was different; he was so excited that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Spending these past few days with his master, he realized that he had truly been a frog in a well.

He actually thought his medical skills were pretty good, but compared to his master, they were nothing at all.

Therefore, he has been exceptionally diligent these days.

He completely regarded himself as a novice and began to accept the medical knowledge taught by his master anew.

Upon learning that his master was going along, he was so happy he could practically spin around in circles.

In this way, he could both help his senior sister and repay her kindness in recognizing his talent, and continue to learn from his master. He couldn't be happier.

...

In the following days, Dongfang Yi and Ding Yi set off back to Lancheng.

In the past few years, Dongfang Yi had to travel back and forth between the two places. Ding Yi felt sorry for Dongfang Yi, so he discussed with Dongfang Yi about moving the headquarters of Shennong Pavilion to Lancheng, while the original site of Shennong Pavilion would still be used as a branch.

Gong Yixue knew about this.

Because Ding Yi had asked for her opinion before making the decision.

In Ding Yi's opinion, the position she was in should have originally belonged to Gong Yixue.

Of course, she knew about this, mainly because of Dongfang Yi.

Because of the special nature of Shennong Pavilion, the site selection cannot be taken lightly.

Gong Yixue even used her connections to find famous feng shui masters and metaphysics masters to work together to find a place in a very remote suburb of Lancheng that was comparable to the original "Shennong Pavilion". She made full use of all things in nature to redesign the place and supplemented it with feng shui, metaphysics and medical skills.

She was certain that even she would get lost nine times out of ten without someone to guide her, so this place was very safe.

This time, when the two of them came, Shennong Pavilion was handed over to Shuxin to manage.

It's okay to help manage it for a few days, but if it goes on for too long, given Shuxin's carefree and easygoing nature, problems are very likely to arise.

The two could only hurry back.

Grandpa Dongfang and his wife were originally planning to go back, but Dongfang Tinglan kept them there.

She said it wasn't easy to come all this way, so she wanted to stay a few more days before going back, and she also wanted to enjoy being a daughter as much as possible.

As their daughter had been lost and found again, how could Mr. and Mrs. Dongfang bear to refuse her?

So she agreed and stayed.

The Gong Nanting couple had no choice but to accept it for a long time. After all, they were the rulers of a country, and the saying "a country cannot be without a ruler for a day" was not just a joke.

After playing for two or three days, Gong Nanting and his wife reluctantly left.

That night, Ye Mohan held Gong Yixue as they slept.

Suddenly, Ye Mohan spoke in a lonely voice, "Xue'er, come with me somewhere tomorrow."

Hearing this, Gong Yixue sensed that his tone was off, so she asked, "Okay."

She didn't even ask where they were going.

She believed that Ye Mohan couldn't possibly want to sell her.

That night, Ye Mohan unusually didn't bother Gong Yixue, which made Gong Yixue feel a little uncomfortable.

However, when sleepiness overcame her, she couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep.

The next morning, when Gong Yixue woke up, she found that the spot next to her was empty.

I touched it, and it wasn't even warm to the touch.

Gong Yixue muttered to herself, "Where did they go so early?"

Because she hadn't made a fuss last night and had gone to bed early, Gong Yixue woke up around 8 a.m.

This is certainly considered early for her.

Gong Yixue got up, washed up quickly, and went downstairs.

When she got downstairs, she saw the two little ones in the living room.

They would usually have already left for school by this time, but they didn't go today.

Moreover, all three—father, daughter (son), and son—were dressed in black.

Gong Yixue walked over with a puzzled look and asked, "Where are Mom and Dad?"

Ye Mohan said, "Mom and Dad took Grandma and Grandpa to see their house."

Upon hearing this, Gong Yixue nodded.

"Didn't they go to school today?" Gong Yixue asked.

She's been incredibly busy lately, and her parents are taking care of picking up and dropping off the kids.

Since she doesn't work, she naturally wouldn't remember what day of the week it is.

Upon hearing this, the two little ones eagerly said, "Mommy, Daddy has asked for leave for us."

"Daddy said he's going to take us somewhere to see someone he really, really wants to see."

Upon hearing this, Gong Yixue frowned.

Seeing this, Ye Mohan quickly said, "Don't listen to their nonsense, I'll take you there today..."

...

Two hours later.

Led by Ye Mohan, Gong Yixue arrived at a scenic cemetery nestled against the mountains and beside the water.

Ye Mohan and Gong Yixue each held a child's hand, and all four of them held yellow chrysanthemums as a token of their grief.

Ye Mohan stopped at the top of the group burial tomb.

Upon seeing the photo on the tombstone, and noticing the man who bore a striking resemblance to Ye Mohan, Gong Yixue knew that this was her father-in-law and mother-in-law, whom she had never met.

Looking at their photos together, it's easy to see that they are a perfect match, both with exceptionally high looks.

The two little ones also saw the photo.

Sweetie asked, "Daddy, are these Grandpa and Grandma?"

Ye Yuchen didn't speak. Looking at the photo that resembled his father, he knew that these were his grandparents whom he had never met.

Upon hearing the sound, Ye Mohan bent down slightly, placed the yellow chrysanthemum on the tombstone, and bowed slightly.

Then she turned around and said gently to Sweetie, "Yes, these are your grandparents. Come over and say hello to them."

Sweetheart and Ye Yuchen nodded.

The two stepped forward, placed the chrysanthemum in front of the tombstone, and said, "Grandpa, Grandma, I am Sweetheart/Xiao Chen, your granddaughter (grandson)."

Then, Gong Yixue stepped forward, put down the flowers, and bowed deeply.

"Dad, Mom, we've come to see you."

Finally, Gong Yixue stood at the back with the two little ones, leaving the front seat for Ye Mohan.

Ye Mohan stepped forward, his face filled with sorrow, and said, "Dad, Mom, can you see? I've become a father now. If you knew, you would definitely be happy for me..."

Seeing Ye Mohan's deep sorrow, Gong Yixue released the two children and stepped forward, hugging Ye Mohan's waist from behind, trying to give him warmth.

"Don't be sad, you still have me and your sweetheart Xiao Chen. From now on, we will take your place and stay by your side. You will never be alone again."

Gong Yixue said with great heartache.

"Me too, Daddy." The two little ones had somehow walked up to him, each grabbing one of Ye Mohan's legs.

Hearing this, Ye Mohan felt very sad, but he also felt happy to have a family who gave him warmth.

By the time we left the cemetery, it was already dark.

Because Ye Mohan was in a bad mood, Gong Yixue was worried about him driving, so she drove the car back herself.

When they got home, Dongfang Tinglan had already prepared a meal and was waiting for them.
