Lu Yun Shen looked at his grandfather but made no promises.

He was sensible and never expected to expose all those people in one go.

Lu Tianhan frowned, looking at his father with disapproval.

"I'm going upstairs first," Lu Yunshen said, getting up and leaving.

Every time I come back, it's like I'm attacking him. Is it really necessary?

In truth, Lu Yunshen knew that they were afraid he would fall into those people's trap.

But now he is more worried about his uncle, Lu Tianqi.

At this moment, Lu Tianqi, who was hiding on a cruise ship at sea, felt his left eyelid twitch.

This was the longest mission he had ever undertaken.

There's some progress now, but those people are very cunning.

The cruise ship will stop in the port city for a day, which will be enough for him to send the message back.

"Number 1, our people have infiltrated the area."

Lu Tianqi heard the waiter say in a low voice.

He remained expressionless, only giving the other person an understanding look.

He was very cautious throughout this mission.

Lu Tianqi had a very bad feeling, as if something bad was about to happen at any moment, so he never dared to let his guard down.

The sea was pitch black, but the cruise ship was brightly lit, with people singing and dancing.

A large number of tourists gathered on the deck to watch the fireworks show by the sea.

Melodious music echoed over the cruise ship.

Lu Tianqi was immediately surrounded by people as soon as he appeared. When he finally managed to get away, he looked at the waiters and found that they were all unfamiliar faces.

He squinted, sensing something was different, and reached into his suit jacket.

But a gun was pressed against his back.

"Don't move!"

A cold voice came from behind.

A salty smell lingered around him, causing Lu Tianqi's stomach acid to churn.

The night seemed to open its gaping maw, swallowing everything.

This squad has completely lost contact.

…

The next day, Beijing Lianchao.

"Grandma, just make a list of what you want to buy. There's no need to squeeze in here." Lu Yunshen looked helplessly at the old woman walking ahead.

Grandma Lu said, "What do you know? It's only meaningful to buy New Year's goods yourself before the New Year."

"It's rare that you're in Beijing this year, and your in-laws are here too. Let's get together for a meal then."

Lu Yun Shen's lips twitched slightly. How come it's different?

It's not about buying things...

"Zhouzhou, don't run so fast."

Grandma Lu heard a familiar voice and immediately stopped in her tracks.

When she saw the boy Pei Zhuling was holding, her eyes widened. Wasn't this Yang Yanzhou when he was a child?

They lived in the same compound, and Yang Yanzhou often visited the Lu family, so Grandma Lu had a deep impression of him.

“Bamboo Ling,”

Grandma Lu came to her senses and quickly walked forward.

Pei Zhuling smiled and nodded to her, "Grandma Lu, Brother Lu."

"Hello Grandma Lu, hello Uncle Lu." Zhouzhou's eyes lit up as she took the initiative to greet them.

"Good, it's good that you're back." Grandma Lu gave them a deep look.

Pei Zhuling didn't chat with them for long; she greeted them and then turned to leave.

"Hmph, old man Yang has really messed up this time," Grandma Lu muttered.

When Yang Yanzhou and Pei Zhuling started dating, almost everyone in the Yang family was against it.

She had heard some of the rumors circulating in the compound.

Both of them were top students from Tsinghua University, and Grandma Lu really couldn't understand what they were objecting to.

"Yun Shen, when are you planning to get married?"

Lu Yunshen straightened his back. "It's still early. We're all very busy."

"Getting married won't keep you busy. If you have a child and can't take care of it, just send it to Beijing and I'll help you take care of it."

Grandma Lu continued to persuade her.

"Could it be that you failed to win over Ziyan?"

"That's true, you really aren't good enough for her..."

Lu Yunshen, "..."

Why does he feel like he's not his own grandson?

This is the first time in my life that my grandma has ever disliked me...

"Yan Zhou already has a child, you'd better hurry up. You're friends, why are you so different?" Grandma Lu continued to nag.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Yang family...

The study features a large, dark wood table, with bookshelves of the same color next to it.

Antique calligraphy and paintings, as well as a traditional Chinese ink painting, are hanging on the wall.

A faint scent of ink lingered in the air.

Grandpa Yang sat in his study practicing calligraphy, deliberately ignoring his grandson.

Yang Yanzhou casually brewed tea, completely oblivious to being left out.

He was thinking about something; he hadn't slept all night and didn't feel sleepy at all.

"Yan Zhou,"

Grandpa Yang called out several times, but his grandson didn't respond.

"Yang Yanzhou," he couldn't help but raise his voice.

After shouting, Old Master Yang's face turned red and his eyes sharpened.

Having held a high position for many years, his imposing presence and sense of oppression remain unchanged even after retirement.

"Grandpa, anger will shorten your life." Yang Yanzhou said calmly, not intimidated by his imposing manner at all.

"you…"

Grandpa Yang put down his brush, picked up a feather duster, and walked over.

Yang Yanzhou nimbly dodged, not forgetting to say, "I was just relaying what the doctor said."

"You came home just to drive me crazy, didn't you?"

"You haven't had a girlfriend in all these years, so go on a blind date tomorrow."

“I’m not going. Who says I didn’t?” Yang Yanzhou said sarcastically.

Old Master Yang was stunned for a moment, then squinted and said, "You're still thinking about Pei Zhuling?"

“That’s right.” Yang Yanzhou looked at his grandfather frankly.

He came back today for this very reason; otherwise, would he still be at home?

Thinking of his son, a gentle light appeared in Yang Yanzhou's eyes.

"Nonsense!"

A stern shout interrupted his thoughts.

Yang Yanzhou leaned back on the wooden sofa, laughing freely, suddenly feeling grateful for the choice he made many years ago.
