Upon hearing this, Grandpa Tan said sternly, "Guangyao, are you serious? You're not allowed to bully Yaoyao. If you dare to bully her, I'll break your legs."
Upon hearing this, Tan Guangyao immediately replied earnestly, "Grandpa, I'm serious. I like her, and I want to marry her. You can choose a date; let's get engaged first."
Hearing that things were progressing so quickly, Grandpa Tan asked, "If Yao Yao agrees, then you should set a date. Or, let's get to know each other first. In case Yao Yao doesn't like you, we have three other options in the family."
Hearing this, Tan Guangyao became anxious: "Grandpa, I'm your own grandson! How could you steal your own grandson's girlfriend? Don't worry, Yaoyao has already agreed. I don't know anything about setting a date, so you can talk to my parents about it later and make preparations as soon as possible."
...
After returning home and seeing off Tan Guangyao and his sister, Li Yao changed into her pajamas and sprawled on the sofa, playing on her phone and reading novels, completely slacking off.
She thought about it seriously. She realized that she might not be able to hide it in real life, so she would use her mental powers to keep him from telling anyone. Anyway, there were plenty of ways, and she wasn't afraid. She would just treat the rest as part of the fun in life.
And so, Li Yao spent her summer vacation at home enjoying air conditioning, eating watermelon, and occasionally watching old TV dramas.
Three or four days later, Tan Guangyao came to Li Yao's door to deliver watermelons and brought her news: someone was inquiring about the Cui family and her. Three or four men had returned from overseas.
When Li Yao heard this news, the first thing that came to mind was the Cui family overseas, but that was several years earlier than when she saw them on TV in her previous life.
Li Yao didn't let Tan Guangyao handle it, saying these people would eventually come to her. Tan Guangyao was worried and asked if she wanted him to come and keep her company every day, since he was in the capital recently anyway. He also gave her his work unit's phone number, telling her to call if anything happened.
Li Yao agreed, so for the next few days, Tan Guangyao would come to Li Yao's house for dinner after get off work, and spend a long time with her after dinner before leaving.
In mid-August, two men drove up to Li Yao's house with gifts and knocked on the door.
After the housekeeper opened the door, Li Yao sat in the living room and saw the young man in his thirties walking in front of her with her spiritual power. He was the Cui family member that Li Yao had seen on TV in her memory.
The man was dressed in a custom-made shirt, suit trousers, and exuded elegance and composure.
The person following behind seemed to be an assistant, carrying gifts.
Li Yao asked the aunt to serve tea.
The man who came was named Cui Minghao. He was the eldest grandson of Li Yao's maternal grandfather's family. He was of the same generation as Li Yao, five years older than her, and could be considered her older brother.
Cui Minghao explained his purpose: he had come to reunite with his family. His grandfather had always wanted to return to his roots, but during the ten years of the Cultural Revolution, he had lost contact with people in China. Now that overseas returnees could invest, he had been searching for information about the Cui family in China.
Cui Minghao took out several photos, and Li Yao took them and looked at them carefully. She remembered that there were also several similar photos in Cui Molan's bedroom before, including photos of her maternal grandparents, photos of her maternal grandmother holding Cui's mother, and photos of Li Yao when she was a child.
She pretended to retrieve a photo from her bedroom, but actually searched through her online space. After comparing the two photos, she found they were indeed the same.
Cui Minghao relaxed slightly when he saw the photos in Li Yao's hand, and he told Li Yao about the situation of the Cui family overseas.
The Cui family is very influential among overseas Chinese communities. They are mainly engaged in industry and have made many investments. The Cui Group is a large company with assets exceeding 10 billion.
From Cui's maternal grandmother's generation, her two older brothers went abroad, while she remained in the capital. Her two eldest brothers went overseas to take over the businesses there.
At that time, my maternal grandmother was still being cared for by my grandparents back home. Later, my grandparents passed away, and my maternal grandmother got married. The two sides continued to correspond until six months before the Cultural Revolution, when the contact was suddenly cut off.
