After leaving the mental sanatorium, Ling Mo suddenly remembered the bedroom where Shi Ying had lived in her maternal grandmother's house in the countryside, which still had the same furnishings as it had been seventeen years ago.

To find out if Shi Ying and Ouyang Bin had any connection, she hurriedly made a phone call to her grandmother in the countryside.

"Cousin? Why did you remember to call home today? I thought you'd forgotten about your poor relatives in the countryside after you married into a wealthy family." Shi Yi started teasingly as soon as he answered the phone.

"Cousin, it's been a long time."

Ling Mo's voice was calm, but his words carried a hint of gritted teeth.

"Since my cousin misses me so much, I'll come to Linjiang to see you in a few days," Shi Yi said with a grin, his only thought being to use Ling Mo's connection to climb up to Zhan Hanjue, such a world-renowned figure.

Where is Grandma?

Ling Mo was too lazy to waste words with him and asked directly.

"She's been staying on the kang (heated brick bed). Her old leg pain has flared up again recently. After we go to Linjiang in a few days, you'll have to find a skilled doctor to give Grandma a good look."

Knowing that Ling Mo was the most filial, Shi Yi also put on a very obedient appearance, and while talking, handed the phone to Liu Guifen, who had just settled into bed after a busy day.

Liu Guifen looked timidly at Shi Yi, and was somewhat flattered to see that his attitude towards her had changed drastically.

After a long while, at Shi Yi's prompting, she timidly took the phone and said in a hoarse voice:

"Child, is that you?"

"Grandma, I'm sorry. I've had so many things to take care of lately. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to take good care of you, and even more afraid of putting you in danger, which is why I haven't brought you here yet. Now that all the problems have been resolved, you can come and live with me in a few days."

"What are you saying? Grandma has no other wish than for you to be safe and sound."

Liu Guifen felt so sad that tears streamed down her face when she thought about the suffering Ling Mo had endured in the countryside.

The two people she loved most in her life were Shi Ying and Ling Mo.

Unfortunately, she was simply not capable of protecting them.

Fortunately, Ling Mo's situation was much better than Shi Ying's, and he was able to successfully find his biological father.

Thinking of this, Liu Guifen couldn't help but cry again.

However, this time her tears were not from unbearable pain, but from extreme joy.
