Shangguan Qi looked surprised. "Grandpa, what...what are you laughing at?"
Shangguan Leiting laughed, his voice very strong, "This is the kind of spirit that the direct descendants of the Shangguan family should have! Qi'er, you should learn from Yan'er."
"..."
Shangguan Qi really couldn't understand how breaking off the engagement with Qi Yujin, which should have been a grave offense, could be described as having courage in Shangguan Leiting's words.
Full of doubt, Shangguan Qi still frowned and asked, "Grandpa, aren't you angry?"
Why should I be angry?
Shangguan Leiting slowly suppressed his smile and straightened his expression. "This is a continent where the strong are respected. Yan'er, at the second stage of Qi Refining, can defeat the Fourth Prince, who is at the sixth stage of Foundation Establishment. I am proud of Yan'er."
"..."
Shangguan Qi finally had nothing more to say. She lowered her eyes and clenched her hands tightly inside her sleeves.
A moment later, when she looked up again, she had a shy expression on her face. "Grandpa is proud of Yan'er, and so am I. But today, thanks to the Imperial Preceptor for specially sending Qi'er back, otherwise Qi'er really wouldn't know how to get back to the manor."
She casually mentioned that Ming Beiya had brought her back, just to get some attention from Shangguan Leiting.
Sure enough, when Shangguan Leiting heard that it was Ming Beiya who brought Shangguan Qi back, he frowned slightly, "Was it the Imperial Advisor who brought you back?"
"Um……"
Shangguan Qi smiled gently, "Grandpa, Qi'er is a little tired today, so I'll go and rest first. You should rest early too."
"good."
Shangguan Leiting responded indifferently. He didn't think Ming Beiya would be interested in Shangguan Qi. After all, she was his own granddaughter, and he knew her character very well.
However, Yan'er seems to have changed a lot after escaping death, but these changes are exactly what Shangguan Leiting hoped for.
Thinking of Mo Shisheng's confident promise to him that he would bring his parents back, Shangguan Leiting's cloudy eyes held a faint smile. After calling out to Qingluan and Zhuque, he turned and walked into the room.

Bamboo Garden.
When Ming Beiya carried Mo Shisheng to her room, he looked at the bed in front of him and was reluctant to put her down.
The girl in his arms was incredibly soft, and Ming Beiya couldn't help but recall the first time he saw Mo Shisheng at the hot spring behind the Shangguan Mansion...
At that time, Mo Shisheng was completely naked, her beautiful body and fair, smooth skin...
Ming Beiya forcefully rolled his Adam's apple up and down twice, suppressing the rising lust in his abdomen, and bent down to gently place Mo Shisheng on the bed.
As he was about to straighten up, his wrist was grabbed by a fair and delicate hand.
Ming Beiya narrowed his long, phoenix-shaped eyes slightly, and then sat down on the edge of the bed with the help of Mo Shisheng pulling him.
When he lifted the red veil that Mo Shisheng used to cover her face, she didn't even wake up.
It's clear how much energy she expended in her battle with Qi Yujin today.
The red veil was slowly removed, revealing a delicate and pretty face. At such a young age, her features were exquisite, and her beauty was evident even without makeup. If she were to grow up and her features fully developed, she would become another stunningly beautiful woman...
Seemingly uncomfortable under Ming Beiya's gaze, Mo Shisheng gently pouted her lips, her moist lips glistening with a crystal-clear luster, making her look charming and adorable.
