Chi Qiao: "It is said that what happened this morning was discovered by Aunt Rong, who serves the old lady, and the news was also brought by Aunt Rong."

Suddenly, a hint of panic appeared on Gong Beize's face.

If it's Aunt Rong, then it's almost certainly her.

After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Make preparations, we'll leave the island tonight."

"Yes, Master." Chi Qiao accepted the order and left.

Ye Mohan didn't speak, but just looked at Gong Beize, who was deep in thought across from him.

Madam Gong?

If he guessed correctly, then she was his Xue'er's adoptive grandmother.

However, Madam Gong is a person...

Suddenly, a clear, cold voice broke the silence.

"Dad, Mo Han, what's going on here?"

Jian Yixue had just come out of the hot spring pool when she remembered that Ye Mohan had said he would be working in the tea room, so she came over to check on him.

Unexpectedly, I saw my father there as soon as I arrived.

She was worried that the two wouldn't get along, but when she came over, she found that they had already called a truce.

And that's how the opening scene came about.

Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan turned his head to look, and at the same time stood up and walked towards Jian Yixue.

"Are you done with work?"

Jian Yixue was somewhat puzzled, but she nodded nonetheless.

Just as he was about to ask Ye Mohan what was going on, he heard Gong Beize's voice.

"Xiaoxue, we need to leave the island soon. Your grandmother has gone missing?"

Jian Yixue: "How could they just disappear like that?"

Gong Beize frowned. "I don't know for now."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue nodded. Naturally, she could not continue to recuperate here in this condition.

However, once she went to Mo City, she hoped to help Dongfang Tinglan improve her health.

"We don't have much stuff, so we can leave anytime."

"Mom doesn't know about this yet, right? I'll go tell her."

After saying that, he prepared to go to the hot spring room to find someone.

Suddenly, a figure walked from the direction where Jian Yixue had come from.

"What does Xue'er want to talk to me about?" Her voice was heard before she was seen.

Before long, an elegant and noble figure appeared beside Jian Yixue.

Jian Yixue turned her head and said, "Mom, Grandma is missing. Dad said he's going back to Mocheng tonight."

Jian Yixue told Dongfang Tinglan the whole story in a terrified tone.

Upon hearing this, a strange expression flashed across Dongfang Tinglan's face, and she then looked at Gong Beize, "The old lady has disappeared? Is the news reliable?"

Gong Beize looked at Dongfang Tinglan and nodded, "A message from Aunt Rong."

"Then hurry up and pack, try to leave as soon as possible," Dongfang Tinglan said.

Three hours later.

On the plane, Ye Mohan's private jet, which had been parked there before, came in handy.

Besides Lin Yi and Ye Yi, who were brought by Ye Mohan, the plane was also filled with Gong Beize, Dongfang Tinglan, and Chi Qiao.

The others couldn't fit on the plane, and because they were in a hurry, at Ye Mohan's suggestion, a few of them chose to leave by plane first, while the others left by boat.

Jian Yixue leaned on Ye Mohan's shoulder, looking at Gong Beize and Dongfang Tinglan, who were too busy to pay attention to her, not far away.

Suddenly remembering something, he spoke to Ye Mohan.

"Mo Han, don't you think Mom seems to be acting a little strange towards Grandma?"

Ye Mohan glanced at Dongfang Tinglan on the sofa not far away, then looked at Jian Yixue and asked.

"How so?"

Jian Yixue pondered for a moment and said, "Do you remember in the tea room just now, Mom called Grandma 'Old Madam'?"

"Although Mom didn't say much, I saw her expression pause for a moment."

Seeing how observant his wife was, Ye Mohan couldn't help but smile.

"Xue'er has a discerning eye."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue knew that Ye Mohan must know something, at least something she didn't.

In her past life, she had no idea that Gong Beize was her father, and she had never paid any attention to this Gong family, which was completely unrelated to her.

Of course, they know nothing.

Jian Yixue leaned closer to Ye Mohan's cheek and asked, "Do you know something?"

"Guess," Ye Mohan said mysteriously.

Jian Yixue tugged at his arm and said coquettishly, "Tell me, tell me, I want to know."

Ye Mohan had no resistance to Jian Yixue's coquettishness, so he immediately held her in his arms and said with a serious expression.

"I know a little more than you do, but not much. Madam Gong is Dad's mother. She lost her husband in middle age and has two sons and a daughter. The two sons are Dad and Gong Nanting, the current president of H country. Her daughter is the vice president of GL."

The old lady is a true powerhouse. Even now, the Gong family is still under her control. Despite being a woman running the household, no one in the powerful families of Mo City dares to underestimate her, which is enough to show that she is extremely shrewd and calculating. We'll only know the real story after meeting her.

After listening, Jian Yixue frowned and nodded.

Based on her past experience mingling in the circles of wealthy wives in the capital, she probably thinks her adoptive grandmother doesn't like her and her daughter.

Otherwise, my mother would never have had that expression.

Suddenly, Jian Yixue looked up at Ye Mohan and asked, "Do you have a house in Mo City?"

Ye Mohan raised an eyebrow. "Xue'er doesn't want to go to the Gong family?"

Jian Yixue nodded, "Not only do I not want to stay there, but I think Mom definitely wouldn't want to stay at the Gong family's house at this time either."

Dad will definitely be very busy when he gets back, so he won't be able to take good care of Mom. Mom has only just woken up and needs my help to recover, so naturally, she'll go wherever I go.

Ye Mohan smiled slightly as he looked at Jian Yixue, "Yes, I'll have Lin Yi investigate."

He then called Lin Yi over and gave him instructions.

Then, Ye Mohan hugged Jian Yixue and said in a low voice, "It's good that Mom is back, she can take care of you for me."

Jian Yixue suddenly looked at Ye Mohan and asked, "Where are you going?"

Suddenly, a possibility flashed into my mind.

"Have the jackals appeared again?"

Otherwise, why would Ye Mohan, who had just recovered, need to return to the mountains?

Upon hearing Jian Yixue's words, Ye Mohan was taken aback at first, then a helpless yet doting smile appeared on his lips.

He reached out and patted Jian Yixue's head, saying softly, "Xue'er, sometimes I'm not as smart as you. It's almost impossible for me to keep things from you."

"What are you trying to hide from me? Or is there something you're hiding from me? Hmm?" Jian Yixue deliberately squinted as she spoke.

Ye Mohan chuckled lightly, "How dare I, your husband?"

"I was just thinking that if you were a little less bright, you wouldn't have to worry about me all the time."

Ye Mohan knew that Jian Yixue had been an assassin, so he naturally knew the danger of the Jackal.

He originally didn't want to tell Jian Yixue, but seeing how thoughtful she was, he could guess the general idea even from the little things about his mother-in-law.

He immediately knew that he couldn't hide it this time.

It's better to tell her the truth from the beginning than to let her overthink it.

Jian Yixue's eyes were moist, her pupils flickered slightly, and her eyes sparkled with starlight.

"You must come back safely. When you return, I want you to tell me your secret yourself."

Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan immediately knew what Jian Yixue was talking about and understood why she had said it at this time.
