Old Long, who was reading the newspaper, saw him, turned around, and walked to the sofa to sit down.

"Grandpa, how are you feeling?"

"Thanks to Dr. Zhang's treatment, he has improved a lot," said Old Long.

Seeing that Elder Long's complexion was indeed much better than before, Long Yunting felt relieved.

"You've been away for so long this time, did you encounter something difficult?" Old Master Long got down to business.

The atmosphere in the room instantly froze.

Long Yunting nodded, "The matter is indeed somewhat tricky, involving international issues."

Elder Long looked over in surprise, "You're handling this kind of incident?"

Even Elder Long was unaware of Long Yunting's current position.

All that is known is that everything Long Yunting does now is a risk.

Long Yunting's voice was slightly deep as he said, "I don't need to deal with superficial international issues here, so I've temporarily withdrawn."

Only international issues hidden in the shadows require these kinds of people to be mobilized.

Old Master Long frowned.

Dealing with covert international issues is like walking on a knife's edge.

What his grandson was doing was more dangerous than he had imagined.

If possible, Elder Long would not want Long Yunting to do these things.

"Are you injured? The doctor Zhang whom Xingzhou invited is very skilled. Let him take a look at you," Old Master Long knew it was inappropriate to ask any further about Long Yunting's affairs, so he stopped the conversation.

Long Yunting said, "I only have some minor injuries, which our own doctors can handle."

"How long will you be able to stay this time?"

"That depends on diplomatic skills," Long Yunting said, always ready to respond.

Old Master Long's brows furrowed again, and he didn't relax them for a long time.

Seeing that Elder Long's brows were furrowed, Long Yunting started a few lighthearted remarks.

When the topic turned to Long Xingzhou, Elder Long added, "Your aunt mentioned Xingzhou to her several times recently, and he met the Jin family's daughter."

Long Yunting thought his grandfather wouldn't be worried.

It turns out he was also anxious about his grandson's marriage.

"My older brother is a sensible person and knows what he needs. When the time is right, he will get married naturally."

"You're right," these things can't be rushed. "Have you been to Xiaoqian's place?"

"I saw her as soon as I got back yesterday."

Old Master Long nodded. It was Sheng Qian who was going to spend her life with Long Yunting, so it was only right that Long Yunting prioritize his wife.

“The family wants to hold a banquet to announce her arrival, so she can enter and leave the Long family with dignity. It will also prevent gossip from outside. Although she comes from the countryside, she is much better than these pampered city kids. Yunting, Grandpa made the decision back then because he had no other choice. Our Long family has already wronged her, so don’t let her suffer any more grievances.”

The Long family cannot do such a thing.

Elder Long felt extremely guilty towards Long Yunting.

Because of his unauthorized decision, Long Yunting married someone he didn't like.

“Grandpa, let’s put the announcement on hold for now. Qianqian is busy with her career and doesn’t want to be disturbed by outsiders at this time.” Long Yunting paused, then added, “She will always be my wife, Grandpa, so you don’t need to blame yourself too much.”

Long Yunting's words further prove his maturity.

Old Master Long was both gratified and heartbroken.

"Give her as much help as the Long family can, and don't let her suffer."

"I will," Long Yunting said, not wanting to wrong her, but afraid of not giving her enough.

I'm just worried that Sheng Qian won't accept.

Thinking of Sheng Qian's desire to sever ties with the Long family, Long Yunting's dark eyes darkened slightly.

Long Jingyu was quite surprised to see Long Yunting. "Yunting, when did you get back?"

“Aunt,” Long Yunting greeted, “I just returned to the city yesterday.”

“Given your health condition, you shouldn’t go out and wander around now that you’re back,” Long Jingyu said, then added, “Yunting, your aunt might be saying something harsh, but I still have to say it.”

"Please speak."

“That Sheng Qian is distant from the family, puts on airs, and acts petty. A person like that can’t be the Long family’s daughter-in-law. Aunt knows you won’t go against your grandfather’s wishes, but I think Sheng Qian is not good enough for you.”

Not only are they unworthy of each other, even carrying her shoes would be an overstatement.

Long Yunting frowned. "Aunt, if anyone is unworthy of her, it's me who's unworthy of her."

"How can you be unworthy of her, Yunting? Even back then, your aunt didn't agree to marrying a country girl to bring good luck."

If you're going to have a marriage to bring good luck, the bride must be a wealthy heiress from a family of equal social standing.

Long Yunting's voice was somewhat indifferent: "Aunt, my marriage with Qianqian was personally approved by Grandpa, and I hope you are aware of this."

So, are you blaming Elder Long?

Long Jingyu froze.

Hou Guifang pushed Long Haifeng in.

"Yun Ting is back!"

“Dad, Mom,” Long Yunting stepped forward, “Dad, how are you feeling?”

Long Haifeng said, "It's the same as always. Dr. Zhang said I need to move around more and recuperate for a while longer."

"Yunting, you've been traveling to other provinces these past few days. Did you run into any trouble?" Hou Guifang was concerned about her son, and also about that matter.

"Everything went smoothly."

"That's good," Hou Guifang glanced at Long Jingyu, guessing that Long Jingyu must have said something just now, and the atmosphere between the two of them was a little awkward. "Stay at home tonight and have a family dinner."

Long Yunting, realizing he hadn't eaten at home in a long time, nodded: "Okay."

Long Xingzhou didn't come back that night, and the others stayed at the school.

So the family consists of only a few people, including Old Man Long, Long Haifeng, and Lan Peizhi.

Long Yunting was not a talkative person, and he simply answered every question during the meal.
