After hanging up the phone, Grandpa Chen met Chen Danqing's determined dark eyes. "Grandpa, it's inconvenient for you to come forward. Let me go find my brother by myself! I've been abroad for a while, and not many people in China know me. Besides, the relevant departments kept my information abroad confidential. My information hasn't been leaked, and no one knows my identity."
Old Master Chen hesitated. Su Yiqing had already said that they were in the same village as those people, and the danger of such a place was self-evident.
Although he loved his grandson dearly, he loved his granddaughter even more. This granddaughter was precocious from a young age and had already carried too much on her shoulders. Now that her grandson was doing well, his granddaughter could have an easier life...
Seeing Grandpa Chen hesitate, Chen Danqing reached out and grabbed his hand. "Grandpa, although my brother has learned a lot during the time he has recovered, he has still missed a lot of time. His ability to handle various problems is still limited."
The village where Brother Su and the others lived was so dangerous. They must all have their own things to do and couldn't possibly look after Brother Su all the time.
If my brother gets into trouble again, we'll be in a passive position once more.
Grandpa Chen was moved by Chen Danqing's words and finally agreed, "Alright, then go find your brother. But Danqing, you have to promise Grandpa that no matter what happens, you must come back safely."
Chen Danqing nodded.
After the private plane landed in Chongqing, Chen Danqing got off the plane alone and left the airport, heading towards Qingquan Village. Meanwhile, Old Master Chen applied for a flight route to fly directly back to Beijing.

With Gu Chen providing sufficient funds, Xiao Bushe found a large enough construction team that worked quickly enough, and by evening of that day, the road blocked by the landslide was already open.
When Xiao Bushe drove into the village, Xiao Ruanruan was wrapping zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) with her older sister Mo'er, older brother Gu Chen, older brother Chen Jie, and older brother and sister Su Lei.
Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival. Not only Xiaoruanruan's family, but every household in the village is making and cooking zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), and the air is filled with the aroma of mugwort and glutinous rice.
Xiao Bushe quietly walked up behind Xiao Ruanruan, placed his hands under her armpits, and suddenly picked her up.
Before Xiao Ruanruan could even react, he had already kissed her on her fair and tender little face.
Gu Chen's murderous gaze instantly changed upon recognizing Xiao Bushe as the newcomer. Although his expression didn't soften, it remained remarkably calm.
Little Ruanruan looked at her sixth cousin, who was still wearing a safety helmet and work clothes, and without any disgust, wrapped her porcelain-white little arms around Xiao Bushe's neck, and even rubbed her little face against Xiao Bushe's face, "Sixth cousin, how come you came so quickly? Is the road open? Where is my bacteria?"
Xiao Bushe raised his hand and gently pinched Xiao Ruanruan's delicate little nose. "You said you missed Sixth Cousin on the phone. Do you miss Sixth Cousin or the bacteria he brought you?"
Little Ruanruan tilted her head, blinked her big, obsidian-like eyes, thought for a moment, then put on a serious face and looked at Xiao Bushe, saying, "Of course I want the bacteria that Sixth Cousin brought. Men and such will only affect my speed of drawing my sword!"
Before Xiao Bushe could react, she nimbly slid off him, hid behind Gu Chen, stuck out her tongue at the bewildered Xiao Bushe, made a face, and giggled, "Sixth cousin, I'm so happy to be mischievous like this!"
Xiao Bushe: "..."
Xiao Bushe's gaze fell on Chen Jie. Although Chen Jie did not know Xiao Bushe, the way Xiao Ruanruan had addressed him earlier had confirmed Xiao Bushe's identity.
But Xiao Bushe couldn't tell who Chen Jie was.
Chen Jie previously underwent cosmetic surgery to restore his appearance. Even with the best doctors and techniques available, there are still some scars on his face that are not easily visible. The skin grafts on his face also look sickly pale because they are not original.
But now, in order to prevent him from being recognized by others, Su Yiqing asked Qianqian to do his makeup. Qianqian originally learned makeup in preparation for becoming a compassionate female forensic doctor and doing post-mortem makeup.
Compared to the clumsy Li Mo'er and Xiao Ruanruan, Xixi's makeup skills are actually quite good.
Chen Jie originally looked like a sickly pale pretty boy, but at Su Yiqing's request and with Qianqian's efforts, his face was now made up to look dark and yellow, making him look more like a malnourished rural boy.
Xiao Bushe also assumed he was a boy from the village visiting Xiao Ruanruan's family, so he didn't ask any further questions.
In the evening, when Chef Gu Chen had prepared dinner and cooked zongzi, Xiao Bushe saw that Chen Jie not only helped serve the food, but also consciously sat down in one of the seats.
He quietly pulled Xiao Ruanruan, who was passing by, and squatted down to ask in a low voice, "Xiao Ruanruan, is that brother an orphan from your village whom you took in?"
Xiao Ruanruan knew what had happened to Chen Jie, and she also knew that Chen Jie's identity could not be exposed and that the villagers could not know his name, so she leaned close to Xiao Bushe's ear and whispered, "No, Sixth Cousin, he is Brother Chen Jie. He was kidnapped and brought here. Because they couldn't let anyone recognize him, Big Brother had Sister disguise him like this."
Xiao Bushe had never met Chen Jie, but he knew the name and Chen Jie's identity because he knew about what had happened to Xiao Ruanruan, even though they hadn't been by her side all along.
Xiao Bushe didn't ask any more questions, but when his gaze swept over Chen Jie, there was a hint of sympathy. He was also a pitiful child with a tragic fate.
However, Gu Chen didn't think like Xiao Bushe. To Gu Chen, Chen Jie was an even more threatening rival in love than Lu Wei.
So whenever Chen Jie got close to Xiao Ruanruan, he would immediately and vigilantly move Chen Jie away from her.
He even shamelessly persuaded Xiao Ruanruan to agree to let him tell her a bedtime story every night.
After Xiao Ruan Ruan confessed to her brothers about her time travel, she generally stopped letting them tell her stories or sing to her to lull her to sleep.
However, Gu Chen's magnetic voice had a hypnotic power when he read the story. Little Ruanruan didn't listen for long before her eyelids started to droop and she fell asleep without realizing it.
