Lu Mo comforted him, "Ignorance is no excuse. This old scoundrel deliberately concealed his identity, so it's not your fault."

"That shameless old thief, luckily the heavens have eyes and his treatment is not going smoothly. He might not even last three days before he kicks the bucket," Ye Qingqing said gloatingly.

Originally, she was worried that the old thief wouldn't survive the snake venom, and she was thinking of checking medical texts when she got back to see if there was any way to help him pull through, since doctors have to be responsible for their patients. But now she was hoping that the old thief wouldn't wake up and that the Black and White Impermanence would take him away!

Lu Mo found it amusing; it really was childish, but it was also quite satisfying.

"Go to the Gong residence first. We need to tell the old man about this, and also about Gongsun Gui. I don't think it's that simple," Lu Mo said worriedly.

If Gongsun Gui didn't know Kamiya Yoshihisa's true identity, that would be understandable; ignorance is no excuse. But if Gongsun Gui knew the other party was an enemy yet still went out of his way to befriend him, then there would be a serious problem. I'm afraid Gong Yi might really shoot this unfilial descendant.

"What about Grandma Keiko? Let's bring her along, as well as Aunt Miyazu and Inukai Yoshi. Kamiya Yoshihisa is their common enemy." Ye Qingqing had a sudden inspiration and came up with a good idea.

This is a good opportunity to reconcile the old man and Keiko. They're both getting on in years, how can they stay estranged forever? Miyazu and Inukai Yoshi both agree that the old couple should reconcile, but Keiko still has some lingering resentment.

Lu Mo immediately guessed her little scheme and said reproachfully, "You're such a busybody. You go directly to the Gong family, and I'll go pick up Huizi and the others."

Ye Qingqing chuckled and hailed a taxi to the Gong family's house. She had just left that morning and returned in less than two hours. Gong Yi greeted her with a smile, "Little girl, are you reluctant to part with my family's pastries?"

"Yes, the food outside is expensive and tastes terrible. It's better to eat here for free. I haven't had lunch yet. Please give me some food, Grandpa. I'm starving." Ye Qingqing sat down without ceremony, feeling hot and hungry.

Gong Yi liked the girl's generous personality; it made him happy. He asked his servants to prepare food and even sent Ye Qingqing some handmade popsicles.

"It's so delicious! It's so hot outside, I'm dying of heat."

Ye Qingqing kept licking the popsicle, which finally made her feel a little better. It was the hottest time of the autumn heat, and even though she was hiding under the shade of a tree, the heat still made her dizzy.

"Where have you been? Look how red your face is from the sun." Gong Yi fanned her with a palm-leaf fan.

Ye Qingqing took a big bite of ice and swallowed it in a few bites. She winked at the old man and said, "You'd better thank me properly this time. I've helped you a lot."

Gong Yi found it increasingly amusing. What great help could this little girl possibly offer him? However, he was quite happy to entertain her with a few jokes. Ye Qingqing didn't say much, only telling Gong Yi to wait, as Lu Mo would surely arrive soon.

There was a commotion at the door, and Ye Qingqing said ambiguously, "You'd better catch me, or I'll fall to the ground!"

Gong Yi glared at her. He had seen all sorts of storms and waves. Even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, he could remain unmoved. The only people who could make him feel emotionally volatile right now were Huizi and her daughter. He wouldn't even bother with the President of the United States.

The old man, who didn't seem to care, was leisurely fanning himself with a palm leaf fan. But when he saw Huizi appear at the gate, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He suddenly didn't know what to do with his hands and feet, and he acted as awkwardly as a clueless young man.

Huizi glanced at him, then immediately turned her head away, concealing her excitement, and said coldly, "With a formidable enemy at hand, let's put aside our personal grudges for now."
