Gong Yixue looked at Gong Jianwenhua and called out, "Master."
Ye Mohan also called out, "Master."
Gong Jianwen nodded to the two of them, and then squatted down in front of Tianxin.
Looking at the sweetheart in front of him who looked almost exactly like Gong Yixue when she was a child, Gong Jianwenhua's eyes were full of love.
"You're a sweetheart, right?"
He unconsciously lowered his voice considerably, afraid of startling Sweetheart.
Sweetheart had never met Gong Jianwenhua.
Upon seeing him, she instinctively hid behind Ye Yuchen.
Ye Yuchen remained relatively calm. Although he had never met his grandmaster since he could remember, he had heard his mother and grandmother mention him many times.
Moreover, when he heard his mother call this man "master," he immediately guessed it. The incredibly young man in front of him was probably his grandmaster.
Although he also found it somewhat unbelievable.
After all, other people's grandparents are all white-haired, while his maternal grandparents are all exceptionally young, and now even his master is like that.
Seeing his younger sister so frightened, Ye Yuchen took Ye Anran's hand and gently comforted her.
Gong Jianwenhua was at a loss when he saw that Tianxin was afraid of him.
He didn't know how to comfort his sweetheart. After all, he hadn't comforted anyone in over twenty years, and his skills were a bit rusty.
Seeing this, Gong Yixue was about to explain when Ye Yuchen called out first, "Grandmaster."
Upon hearing this, Gong Jianwenhua was taken aback.
Once she realized what was happening, she cheerfully replied, "Hey, you're Xiao Chen, right?"
Ye Yuchen nodded.
Seeing Ye Yuchen's cheerful demeanor, Gongjian Wenhua became less nervous and asked, "How did Xiao Chen know I was his grandmaster?"
Ye Yuchen said calmly, "It's very simple. Mommy and Daddy call you Master, so aren't you my Grandmaster?"
Upon hearing this, Gong Jianwenhua paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Hmm, Xiao Chen is really smart. His intelligence is just like your parents'."
"When your master first met your mother, he was about the same age as you."
Dongfang Tinglan, who was standing nearby, was also deeply moved after hearing this.
"Yes, when Senior Brother first met Xue'er, he must have been around this age. And Sweetie's appearance is just like Xue'er back then."
It has to be said that Sweetheart looks like she was sculpted from the same mold as Cher.
They are exactly the same.
Thinking of Xue'er's past, Dongfang Tinglan couldn't help but feel a little sad.
As a mother, when I think back to those years, I always feel heartache and self-blame.
When Gong Yixue saw her mother's expression, she knew that she was blaming herself again.
He immediately went over and hugged Dongfang Tinglan, saying, "Mom, it's all in the past. We're all together now, aren't we? I'm already very content."
As for the past, let's just consider it a trial given to us by heaven. Now we can be considered survivors.
Upon hearing this, Gong Jianwenhua realized that his words had upset his junior sister, so he said, "Look at my mouth, junior sister, I didn't mean to remind you of these unpleasant memories."
He was just expressing his feelings.
For a moment, my brain didn't catch up with my mouth—no, it didn't catch up at all.
Upon seeing this, Gong Beize stepped forward, snatched his beloved wife from his daughter's arms, and held her in his embrace.
"Tinglan, it's all in the past."
"The children are still watching," Gong Beizhe deliberately reminded them.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Tinglan glanced at the two little ones.
She immediately stopped being sad and got up from Gong Beize's arms. She turned her head away to wipe her tears, then looked at the two little ones and said, "Grandma is fine, Xiao Chen, don't worry."
Ye Yuchen nodded.
He knew what his grandmother was sad about, but that was in the past, and he hoped she could look forward.
Seeing that Dongfang Tinglan was sad, Sweetheart went up to her and asked Dongfang Tinglan to hug her.
While being held, Sweetie said in her sweet, childish voice, "Grandma, don't be sad. From now on, Sweetie will take care of Grandma in place of Mommy. Grandma watched me grow up, just like she watched Mommy grow up."
Dongfang Tinglan was amused by Tianxin's actions and said, "Okay, Grandma will listen to Tianxin and won't be sad anymore."
Sweetie nodded, looking very serious, and said, "Grandma has to keep her word."
"Okay, Grandma promises Sweetheart, she will keep her word."
After appeasing Tianxin, Dongfang Tinglan looked at Gong Jianwenhua and said, "Alright, Senior Brother and Xue'er should have a good chat. It's almost noon, I'll go prepare lunch first."
Although Aunt Qiu and others were in the kitchen, she was always worried that they wouldn't do a good job if she didn't go.
After all, this was her senior's first meal in years, so she wanted to prepare it properly.
Upon hearing this, Gong Jianwenhua and Gong Yixue nodded.
The master and apprentice hadn't seen each other for so many years, and they certainly had a lot to talk about.
Gong Yixue happened to have something to say to her master.
Dongfang Tinglan then handed the two little ones over to Gong Beize and Ye Mohan, instructing them to take good care of the children before turning and going to the kitchen.
Gong Beize and Ye Mohan exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with sympathy for each other.
However, considering that the master and apprentice haven't seen each other for so long, they do need some time to have a chat.
The two then resignedly took the two little ones to the children's playroom on the second floor, which was a playground that Ye Mohan had specially built for the two children.

Downstairs, Gong Jianwenhua and Gong Yixue sat on the sofa.
Gong Yixue thoughtfully brewed a cup of tea for Gong Jianwenhua, and her clear and melodious voice slowly rang out.
"Master, please have some tea. See if my tea skills have improved over the years."
Upon hearing this, Gong Jianwenhua nodded.
He picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said, "Your tea skills have improved. It seems your temperament has matured quite a bit recently."
Brewing tea is a delicate task; only with a calm and tranquil mind can one bring out the best flavor of the tea.
Nowadays, Gong Yixue's tea-brewing skills are much more refined than they were a few years ago.
Gong Yixue nodded.
Having gone through what happened to Sweetheart over the years, her temperament is naturally different from what it used to be.
Now her temperament has been tempered, and she is no longer as impulsive and restless as she used to be.
"What did Master gain from this trip?" Gong Yixue asked.
Upon hearing this, Kung Chien-Wen Hua immediately became interested.
He then began to chat with Gong Yixue.
"This time when your master goes out..."
The conversation lasted for about half an hour, and Gong Yixue listened attentively the whole time.
When she heard Gong Jianwenhua talk about finding rare medicinal herbs and treating difficult diseases, she would ask a few questions to understand.
Gong Jianwen spoke with great enthusiasm throughout, and Gong Yixue listened with great interest.
At the end of her sentence, Gong Yixue said, "It seems that Master has been living a very comfortable life these past few years."
Gong Jianwen nodded with a smile.
Just then, Gong Yixue suddenly changed the subject and asked, "I just don't know, has Master found me a mistress?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Gong Jianwenhua couldn't help but spit out the tea he had just taken a sip of.
