After giving some instructions to Aunt Liu, Fang Hongyu left the servant’s quarters.
The next morning.
After breakfast, Fang Hongyu and Lv Tang accompanied Fang Youling to the Dazhao Temple to attend the Peace Lamp Ceremony.
Fang Youling looked at Fang Hongyu, "I heard from Aunt Liu that you visited your Aunt Wu last night."
Upon hearing this, Lv Tang breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that someone had discovered their parents’ whereabouts last night.
If no one had found out, wouldn’t it have been a wasted trip?
Fang Hongyu held Fang Youling’s hand and nodded, "Yes, I did visit her."
"You’re such a child, don’t you tire yourself out going out so late at night?" Fang Youling chided.
A smile filled Fang Hongyu’s face as she spoke softly, "As long as uncle gets better, I’m willing to do anything."
Satisfaction filled Fang Youling’s eyes as she sighed, "Hongyu, over the years, it’s been a blessing to have you by our side. Otherwise, we wouldn’t know what to do."
They had lost their daughter and had no one to rely on.
Fang Hongyu was their only support.
"Aunt, we are family, why do you always say such distant things?"
Fang Youling smiled and nodded, "Right, we are family."
Family?
She too had said they were family, but she hadn’t expected Fang Youling to take it to heart.
If Fang Youling really considered her family, she wouldn’t still be withholding the Tang Group from her even now.
Fang Youling was already up there in age, and not only had to search for Tang Qiushui constantly but also manage the company’s affairs. How could she cope with all that?
If Fang Youling truly saw her as family, she wouldn’t still be clutching the shares tightly in her hand by now.
Ridiculous.
Before long, the group had reached the outside of the house.
An extended Kenlin car was parked there.
Fang Hongyu and Lv Tang helped Fang Youling into the car.
Fang Youling laughed, "No need to help me, I’m not so old that I can’t walk."
With Fang Hongyu and Lv Tang fussing around her like that, anyone who didn’t know better might think she was of a significant age!
As they spoke, Fang Youling instructed the driver, "Go to the Mu Family first."
To the Mu Family?
Upon hearing that, Fang Hongyu curiously asked, "Aunt, is Aunt Mu coming with us too?"
"Yes." Fang Youling nodded.
The three of them got into the car.
Lv Tang looked at Fang Youling, "Grandma, I heard that Patriarch Ouyang is also attending the Peace Lamp Ceremony at Dazhao Temple, is that right?"
"That’s true," Fang Youling replied as she fastened her seat belt, "However, Patriarch Ouyang is known for his unconventional ways. No one can be sure if he will actually attend before the event starts."
Genius and madness are only one thought away, so Ouyang Yi is quite crazy.
Although Fang Youling had never met Ouyang Yi, she had heard plenty of stories about him.
With her hands propping up her chin, Lv Tang said, "In our history class, the professor analyzed Ouyang Yi, saying that he has intermittent explosive disorder, but his IQ is over 250. Our Hua Country’s fastest silencer gun was his invention."
Of course, Ouyang Yi’s achievements were far more than just that.
Lv Tang was just mentioning one of his minor accomplishments.
As she spoke, Lv Tang continued, "It would be great to see Patriarch Ouyang today. Our department professor said he’s one of the few people who is still alive that’s mentioned in history books."
About that time, the car stopped at the Mu Family’s doorstep.
The driver turned slightly and announced, "Old Madam, we’ve arrived."
Fang Hongyu turned to Fang Youling, "Aunt, Tangtang and I can go and welcome Aunt Mu. It’s snowy and slippery, so it’s best if you stay in the car."
"Alright." Fang Youling nodded.
Just as Fang Hongyu and Lv Tang got out of the car, Mu Xiaoxiao was seen walking out of the house, supporting Old Lady Mu.
"Xiaoxiao sister!" Lv Tang waved to greet Mu Xiaoxiao.
Mu Xiaoxiao also waved back to Lv Tang, "Tangtang."
It wasn’t long before they all gathered beside the car. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Lv Tang politely said, "Grandma Mu, sister Xiaoxiao."
Watching the two approaching from a distance, Fang Hongyu slightly furrowed her brows.
Something was off.
Why were there only Old Lady Mu and Mu Xiaoxiao?
Where was Mu Baicheng?
Considering how much Mu Baicheng liked her, if he knew she was going to Dazhao Temple, he definitely would have come with Old Lady Mu.
And it would have been perfectly justified.
But now...
She hadn’t seen any sign of Mu Baicheng.
That seemed somewhat abnormal.
Could something have happened to Mu Baicheng?
Beset by these thoughts, Old Lady Mu and Mu Xiaoxiao had already reached them.
Fang Hongyu put on a smile and said, "Aunt Mu, my aunt is waiting in the car. Let’s get in where it’s warm."
"Alright." Old Lady Mu nodded and joined them in the car.
