Jiu Shiyi explained from the side, "Sister, Grandpa knows you like collecting things. These are all things he has carefully selected over time. Please accept them all."
“I… cannot accept gifts without having done anything in return,” Cat said, adding that the old man had given her far too much.
Old Man Jiu said, "These are just trinkets. You can keep them and play with them. I have no use for them. Besides, it's no big deal for me to bring you a small gift since you've come to see me."
Jiu Shiyi: "Yes, sister, don't refuse."
Although Jiu Shiyi wanted to say that she clearly deserved credit! She was the one who saved Grandpa.
At this moment, Old Man Jiu finally paid some attention to Mu Jin, "This must be Mu Jin?"
Mu Jin nodded calmly. If Old Man Jiu didn't remember him, he would probably remain a background figure forever.
Old Man Jiu scrutinized Mu Jin with a very intriguing look, and finally nodded in satisfaction, "Very good."
The way she looked at him was as if she were really looking at her grandson-in-law!
Although he was bedridden at home, as Jiu Shiyi said, he paid close attention to all the news about the cat, so he knew everyone who had contact with the cat.
What's more, there was also the latest news that Jiu Shiyi brought him—Mu Jin was actually Maomao's real boyfriend.
In his opinion, Mu Jin was definitely someone he could entrust his life to.
At this moment, the cat said, "In that case, I'll accept all of these things."
She really didn't hold back.
Then she looked at Jiu Shiyi and said, "Little brother, I need to talk to you."
Jiu Shiyi nodded in understanding. He looked at his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, my sister and I will go upstairs for a while. You should rest."
Old Man Jiu smiled and said, "Alright, you siblings chat more."
Old Man Jiu was very happy. Even though Maomao didn't acknowledge him as her grandfather, he was still very pleased that she got along well with Jiu Shiyi! Besides, he was already quite surprised that Maomao could come today!
Jiu Shiyi brought the cat and Mu Jin to his bedroom.
His bedroom was divided into two parts; the outer part resembled an exhibition hall, with custom-made large display shelves showcasing many cool models. A large table also held numerous tools.
After entering, Mu Jin slowly looked at the models along the display shelves, and when he found one that interested him, he would take it out and examine it on his phone.
Jiu Shiyi also looked at Mu Jin and asked Maomao, "Sister, did Mu Jin give you your car?"
The cat nodded, took out the lightsaber, and placed it on the table. "Here it is."
Jiu Shiyi picked it up and looked at it. He released the safety, activated the lightsaber, and the blue beam of light added a touch of chilling danger.
Jiu Shiyi said with some surprise, "I know this sword. It caused a sensation when it was made. However, the energy storage device of this sword is a rare meteorite. I cannot replicate this meteorite, but I can study the alternative."
He said it so casually! So far, no research institution has been able to create a substitute for this laser sword.
Cat patted Jiu Shiyi on the shoulder encouragingly, "Go for it! Little brother, I believe in you, you can do it."
Although Jiu Shiyi had heard countless praises and was long immune to flowers and applause, he still couldn't help but get excited when he heard Maomao say this. "Yes! I will definitely not let my sister down."
The cat then said, "I'll leave this lightsaber here and come back for it tomorrow."
Jiu Shiyi nodded.
The matter concerning the cat was finished, but she didn't leave immediately because Mu Jin seemed to still be studying those models.
She walked over and said with a grin, "Ah Jin, isn't this little brother a treasure?"
Mu Jin nodded, a rare occurrence for her.
After a short while, Mu Jin looked at Jiu Shiyi and said, "I remember you were at the Kunwu Biotechnology Research Base, not the Weaponry Technology Base."
Everything in this room is a heavy weapon. Although it's just a model, it was all made by Jiu Shiyi on his own, which is quite remarkable. Moreover, he can now also manufacture laser weapons.
Jiu Shiyi nodded. "That's right."
Mu Jin then asked, "Didn't Kunwu involve you in weapons technology research?"
Jiu Shiyi frowned slightly. The topic of the company wasn't pleasant to discuss, and the company's situation was somewhat complicated. So, he simply said, "I don't have that much energy to participate in other research."
Mu Jin glanced at him a couple more times.
Soon after, Maomao and Mujin left.
Before leaving, Mu Jin said to Jiu Shiyi, "If you need help in the future, you can come to me."
Jiu Shiyi agreed, "Thank you."
On the way back, Cat asked, "Ah Jin, do you like this little brother?"
Mu Jin: "How did you get the idea that I like this?"
The cat said, "You should offer to help him."
This was the first time Mu Jin and Jiu Shiyi had met, and it was the first time Maomao had ever seen Mu Jin take the initiative to extend an olive branch.
Mu Jin replied, "It's because you like him."
"Um?"
Mu Jin added a few more words of explanation, "Kunwu Group is an organization that does not exist within any national borders. It is very complicated internally. Someone like Jiu Shiyi should be someone they are grooming. However, judging from his appearance, the actual situation is definitely not like that. If something happens to him in the future, the Jiu family will not be able to protect him."
The Jiu family that Mu Jin mentioned refers to Old Man Jiu and his two other sons.
The cat glanced at Mu Jin, thought for a moment, and said, "You're right..."
She can't let anything happen to such a wonderful younger brother.
The car was parked outside the Jiu family's villa. Mu Jin didn't go inside this time; he still wanted to drive the car back.
However, before the cat got out of the car, Mu Jin reached out her hand.
The cat quickly placed its paw on it.
I don't want your hand.
The cat wouldn't let go. "Hehe, what do you want? Tell me so I'll know."
Mu Jin: "Wine."
The cat pouted, "Ah Jin, how did you know I still had some?"
"This wine is peach blossom wine. If you brewed it in spring, the soul inside this body will still be sweet and tender in springtime," Mu Jin said incisively.
So, when the cat said at the Mu family's old house that the new wine wouldn't be available until spring, it was just a lie to fool others.
Soon, Mu Jin added, "You didn't drink before. This wine must have been brewed after you returned from H City. Since you've been planning this for so long, why would you only prepare three jars?"
Cat looked at Mu Jin in surprise, "Wow, Mu Jin, are you a detective? You saw right through me."
"So, where's the wine?"
Mu Jin didn't drink at all today because he knew he could get some from Maomao.
"oh."
Cat took out several jars on her own initiative, and only stopped when the car was full.
"How many do you have?" Mu Jin asked.
The cat looked at him and said, "I didn't count them. My peach trees don't bloom in all seasons; they have peach blossoms all year round. I buried many of them."
Mu Jin asked, "Are you planning to open a winery?"
