Fu Shen had never met Huo Xueshen before. Even though he had already decided in his heart that Huo Xueshen was his biological father, it didn't really matter what he called him before they recognized each other. He understood that this required a gradual process of getting used to it.
Wang Jingyi looked at Grandma Yang, then at Fu Shen, and suggested, "Why don't you call him Uncle Huo like Yueyue does?"
Su Yue said helplessly, "He can't even bring himself to call me Uncle Huo."
Grandma Yang and Wang Jingyi: "..."
Grandma Yang suddenly seemed to remember something funny and laughed heartily. Then she said to Fu Shen, "Your stubborn personality is just like your father's when he was a child. He doesn't like to talk to people, and he doesn't want to do things. No matter how you try to persuade him, it's no use."
Fu Shen met Su Yue's teasing expression, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
Grandma Yang asked curiously, "What is Lu Yunting's position? Does he have so much power to let me and your father meet?"
Fu Shen replied, "As far as I know, his grandfather, father, and several older brothers all had a certain influence in the military. He himself is also very outstanding; at only thirty years old, he is already a regimental commander."
Thinking that he was only twenty-eight years old and still just a battalion commander, he wondered when he would be able to get the position of regimental commander.
Grandma Yang and Wang Jingyi were surprised to hear this, as they hadn't expected that someone as young as thirty would become a regimental commander.
Su Yue, on the other hand, seemed relatively calm. She didn't know much about military positions and was unaware of just how impressive it was to become a regimental commander at the age of thirty.
“They have a really powerful background,” Grandma Yang paused, then lowered her voice. “You mean in the past? Did their family decline a few years ago? With such a powerful background, they are exactly the kind of family that the Revolutionary Committee is paying close attention to. It’s a real pity that they have fallen on hard times.”
Fu Shen's expression was solemn. "No, it's because they all sacrificed themselves."
Grandma Yang: "..."
It's better to fall into obscurity than to sacrifice yourself; at least in obscurity, you still have a life left.
Su Yue frowned slightly. "Can Lu Yunting guarantee Uncle Huo's personal safety after he leaves the research base?"
Su Yue hadn't forgotten that in Shuiwen Village, Tang Jianguo and Zhao Xiulan had repeatedly told Tang Yunyun not to tell anyone about Huo Xueshen's departure. This showed that Huo Xueshen was in danger everywhere except where he was at the research base.
When Grandma Yang heard what Su Yue said, she looked at Fu Shen with a worried expression.
Fu Shen: "When I first told him about this, he said he didn't even have the right to see anyone."
Upon hearing this, Su Yue frowned even more deeply. "Then why did he tell Grandma to try his best to let you two meet?"
Grandma Yang chimed in with a puzzled look, "Yes, if he can't do it, why would he say that?"
Fu Shen chuckled inwardly. He could guess why Lu Yunting said that to Grandma Yang; it was simply to get him to join his camp.
He said it was impossible in front of me, but then he promised Grandma Yang that they would meet.
I really don't know what to say about Lu Yunting. He doesn't even understand his own original intentions, and he just wants me to join him.
North City might be a dream paradise for some, but it wasn't for him.
Fu Shen looked at Su Yue and Grandma Yang, "Lu Yunting only said he would try his best, but I believe he will do it."
He firmly believed that Lu Yunting would do everything in his power to achieve his goal, but he himself would never join in.
Grandma Yang sighed softly and said helplessly, "Since Xue Shen is safest at the research base, I'm not in a hurry to meet him. But you'll have to wait a little longer to find out if your mother is Tian Huanyan."
Since she had waited for so many years and Huo Xueshen had returned to Beicheng safely, she wasn't so upset anymore.
Fu Shen shook his head, "I'm not in a hurry for that either."
