Old Master Ye pulled Old Master Lu to sit down and began to ask him about his experiences over the years. He instructed the servants to prepare a meal so that they could have a good get-together.
The housekeeper excitedly prepared their favorite dishes, and the kitchen began to bustle with activity.
They talked for a long time. Master Lu was well aware of the affairs of wealthy families, but he still wanted to say something for the sake of his apprentice.
Old Master Ye noticed that he was being evasive and something seemed off. He asked suspiciously, "Are you having some kind of trouble? Tell me what's wrong, and I'll do my best to help."
Since things had come to this point, Old Master Lu stopped dwelling on it. He frowned and looked at Old Master Ye: "You old codger, I am your grandson's teacher."
The moment those words were spoken, an eerie silence fell.
The butler was afraid that they would quarrel over these things as soon as they met, so he was about to try to calm things down when Old Master Ye spoke up.
"That's great. It's his honor to have you as his teacher."
Old Master Lu glared at Old Master Ye, saying angrily, "It was going very well. I had just started teaching when someone sent him abroad."
Old Master Ye instantly understood that this old codger hadn't come to see him at all; he had come to interrogate him.
Old Master Ye could have avoided this topic, but he glanced at Elder Lu and said, "He is the future of the Ye family and must receive a good education to prepare for taking over in the future."
Old Lu's face darkened, and he asked irritably, "Do you think I'm not capable enough to teach your precious grandson?"
Old Master Ye knew that this old geezer was just being unreasonable; he clearly knew that wasn't what he meant.
Despite Lu Lao's threats and inducements, Old Master Ye still couldn't reveal Gu Xiaotian's whereabouts.
Old Master Lu thought there was no hope, but then Old Master Ye said, "I am very relieved to entrust Xiao Tian to you."
Old Lu angrily cursed, "You old geezer, why didn't you say so sooner? You made me worry for so long."
When Lu Lao learned of Gu Xiaotian's whereabouts, he sent a message to Ye Lichuan, who then flew to the country where Gu Xiaotian was overnight.
Gu Xiaotian initially resisted everything here, but in order to see his mother as soon as possible, he began to accept it and started to study hard every day.
Besides studying, he also had to learn many other things, including physical training from a martial arts teacher.
Grandpa Ye's arrangements were very comprehensive, covering many things. At first, Xiao Tian struggled a bit and was punished by the teacher many times.
After a few days of adjustment, I'm much better now and can basically keep up with the teacher's pace.
After getting off the plane, Ye Lichuan went straight to where Gu Xiaotian was studying. He saw a small figure jogging at night with sandbags tied to his legs.
Gu Xiaotian hadn't noticed him yet, so he waited until he finished training before Ye Lichuan called out.
"Xiao Tian".
Gu Xiaotian heard a familiar voice and turned around to find its source. He saw Ye Lichuan's figure in the distance.
He excitedly ran to Ye Lichuan's side, looked up at Ye Lichuan's face, and wanted to say something. But in the end, he only asked, "Daddy, why are you here?"
Looking at his sensible son, Ye Lichuan hugged him tenderly and said, "I've come to take you home."
Gu Xiaotian looked at Ye Lichuan in disbelief: "Grandpa said that you all went through this, so I have to do it this way too in order to see Mommy."
Ye Lichuan touched his son's face, and the cold touch made Gu Xiaotian shiver. It was winter here, and the climate was completely different from that in China.
“You have your own life, and I believe in you. Even if you don’t follow the path of me and Grandpa, you will still be outstanding.”
Gu Xiaotian has been here for so many days, and even though it's been difficult, he hasn't shed a tear because he considers himself a man.
After Ye Lichuan finished speaking, Gu Xiaotian climbed onto Ye Lichuan's shoulder and sobbed.
Ye Lichuan hugged him tenderly and took him back to his place.
Everything Gu Xiaotian accomplished here was done independently. He was no longer a young master, and no one served him.
So Gu Xiaotian changed a lot in just a few days and became more independent.
Ye Lichuan looked at the neatly organized room and looked at his son with satisfaction. Although it had only been a few days, the changes were significant.
Ye Lichuan and Gu Xiaotian stayed one more night and booked their return tickets back to China the next day.
Gu Anran was so excited when she learned that Ye Lichuan had found his son that she couldn't sleep all night.
Her son was finally back by her side, and she lay alone on the big bed, silently shedding tears.
Fortunately, she married Ye Lichuan. If he didn't love her and was only after the child, she would be facing a tragic life now.
Grandpa Ye and Grandpa Lu chatted for a long time, and Grandpa Ye didn't leave until very late. Grandpa Ye watched him go with reluctance, knowing that he could see him often once he knew his address.
He is now his own grandson's teacher. The twists and turns of fate are truly amazing; after all that, we've come full circle.
Gu Xiaotian and Ye Lichuan flew back to China. Gu Anran was waiting for them in the departure hall. When Gu Xiaotian saw Gu Anran from afar, he ran and rushed into her arms.
Gu Anran hugged her son tightly, silently shedding tears, while Ye Lichuan hugged his son and wife. The family nestled together.
Gu Xiaotian returned to Gu Anran's side, and she could finally focus on her work. Old Master Ye acted as if nothing had happened.
Gu Anran's company is now quite well-known, so they are overwhelmed with orders.
Old Master Lu returned and began teaching Gu Xiaotian. He was very fond of the well-behaved and sensible Gu Xiaotian.
Unlike that stubborn old man who only thinks about his family all day long, Gu Xiaotian also follows Master Lu around every day, participating in various calligraphy competitions. Everyone knows that Gu Xiaotian is Master Lu's last disciple.
People are very envious; to catch Old Master Lu's eye, one must be talented. Old Master Lu is actually an eccentric old man.
Gu Anran learned a lot of classical elements from Mr. Lu, which enabled her to design many ancient-style items.
Gu Anran received an invitation to walk the runway in Paris, France. She prepared for the show intensively every day, and she and Gu Xiaotian studied with Master Lu every day.
The country has a long and rich history and culture, and she learned many interesting things from it, which she then incorporated into her fashion design.
The public response has been very positive, and she also loves the country's classical culture and long history.
Their company's reputation is growing, and Gu Anran is so busy every day that Ye Lichuan has started to complain that she is neglecting him.
Gu Anran hugged Ye Lichuan and said coquettishly, "I'll make it up to you after I'm done with my work in Paris, okay?"
Ye Lichuan bit her with suppressed anger, thinking, "Just wait and see how I deal with you, you little vixen."
Gu Anran, her face slightly flushed, leaned against him and rested for a while before continuing to design her drafts. She wanted Chinese style to shine brightly on the world stage.
