This was the first time Yu Qi had dinner with Grandpa Mu alone. Yu Qi remembered that he always had dinner with Grandpa Mu. After Grandpa Mu brought Yu Qi back to the Mu Family, his other grandchildren started spending less time with Grandpa Mu making the old man feel very lonely. So to make her grandfather happy, she always had dinner with him.
“Tell me about your life.” Grandpa Mu's voice had awakened Yu Qi from his mind.
“My life?” Yu Qi was confused.
“I want to know about your childhood.” Said Grandpa Mu.
Grandfather Mu had already investigated about Yu Qi's life. He was very angry when he read it. But he still wanted to hear it from Yu Qi's own mouth.
Yu Qi's face stiffened slightly. Grandpa Mu noticed that.
“If you don't want to talk about it, it's okay.” Grandpa Mu waved his hand.
“No, I'll tell you, grandpa.”
Yu Qi started telling Grandpa Mu about his childhood. He told her from the beginning that he was left alone in front of the orphanage. The owner of the orphanage pitied him so much that he took him to the orphanage.
One month after that, the Wang Family came and adopted him. When Yu Qi told the reason why the Wang Family adopted him, Grandpa Mu's expression changed. It was for such a stupid reason that he was adopted. Yu Qi was adopted because he would be a shield for the Wang Family children from their bad luck.
“Bad luck?” Even though Grandpa Mu was a rich man, he was an old man. Parents tend to believe such things.
“Yes. But nothing happened.” Recalling these memories now, Yu Qi felt nostalgic.
Yu Qi continued to recite his life. How did she start learning to cook, doing Wang Fu Ya homework, how did she have to find her own money to pay for her school fees. Everything he went through during being the Wang Family's adopted son.
Grandpa Mu felt that it was ridiculous. The family had treated his grandson like a slave.
“But everything starts to change.” Yu Qi started to smile.
Yu Qi continued his story. He felt that it was enough with the Wang Family. So, he packed up his luggage and ran away from their house. He recited the moment of how he met Grandpa Tang. It was a big turnover for him. He became his disciple and grandson. After that, things start to get better and better.
Grandpa Mu smiled. It must not have been easy for the girl to make the decision to run away from her home. Her granddaughter might have suffered so much that she could not hold back anymore.
Yu Qi started telling Grandpa Mu about his business and assets. Grandpa Mu nodded. His granddaughter really has a business mind.
“Why did you learn to become a doctor?” Grandpa Mu asked. It wasn't that he didn't like it but it felt pointless for a girl like her to become a doctor.
“Because I like it.” Simple reason. He likes that.
There was a time where she was still in Shiwa City learning about herbs with Grandpa Tang. Back then, he was only interested in studying herbs. He has no intention of becoming a doctor.
One day, an old woman came running to the store asking for help. Grandfather Tang quickly went to meet them. On his arm, there was a boy who looked extremely pale. The old woman asked Grandpa Tang to look at the boy while crying.
Grandfather Tang diagnosed that the boy had a toxic reaction. Grandfather Tang worked very quickly to detoxify the poison using herbs. Half an hour later, the boy began to feel better. The old woman thanked Grandpa Tang for saving her little granddaughter. After that incident, Yu Qi was interested in becoming a doctor.
The two of them chatted happily for a long time.

“What? Dad have a meeting with the girl?” Mu Li Zei stood up after hearing the reports from the people he planted beside his father.
“Ya, Sir. They were having dinner at the hotel where Miss Tang was staying.” The man told Mu Li Zei.
“I understand.” That was all Mu Li Zei could say.
The man could not understand what his boss meant by that. “What should we do next?” As an employee, a man should know what his boss wants to do.
“Investigate the purpose of their meeting.” Said Mu Li Zei.
The man slightly changed his expression. His boss' orders were difficult to complete. But he had to finish it if he didn't want to die. Recalling what happened to his comrades, he shivered.
“I'll find out about it.” The man said.
“Good.” Mu Li Zei ended the call.
Mu Li Zei sat in the study thinking about her father and the girl. He had already confirmed that the girl was not related to his father.
But now, his father met the girl. For what reason? He can't think about it. ‘Wait. Is the father interested in her because she has a face that she loves? No. No. No.. Dad will not be interested in a young girl.’
Mu Li Zei continued to deny his thoughts. Suddenly someone entered his study. He heard the sound of crying.
“My husband, please see Rong Xie. He doesn't eat at all.” Su Yu Qing walked into the room while sobbing.
Mu Li Zei pinched his temple. This problem is still unsolved. It seemed like he had to visit Yu Qi immediately.

It was a very pleasant dinner for Yu Qi and Grandpa Mu. Their bond feels much stronger. Grandfather Mu also touched on the topic about Mu Xiao Ye, Yu Qi's real father. He said that Yu Qi was indeed the same as his father. In behavior and personality.
When Grandpa Mu said that, Yu Qi could detect the sadness in his voice. Grandpa Mu must have missed his son. He really wondered where Mu Xiao Ye had gone.
Nevertheless, dinner was fun for both of them. When dinner was over, the two of them walked out of the room with happy expressions. Grandfather Mu told Yu Qi to go back to his room.
Yu Qi wanted to send his grandfather to the entrance. But that's not a good idea. Someone will make up stories to destroy his grandfather's reputation. His grandfather was a great businessman here. Some gossip can ruin a human life. He didn't want that to happen.
So, he asked himself to leave. If he had time, he would visit Grandpa Mu.
Upon seeing his grandson leave, Grandpa Mu changed his expression. From soft to cold. He's looking at someone. The one who had seen them trembled.
“You dare betray me?” Grandfather Mu suddenly spoke to the man.
“Oh, then, what?” Grandpa Mu showed something on his phone.
The man was shocked.
“If you are unsure, I can show you video.” Grandfather Mu added.
The man could not say anything.
“Come back first. After that, drag him into that strange room.” Grandpa Mu's gone.
The men followed Grandpa Mu while taking the kneeling man. The man who had kneeled could not return when he heard about the strange room. When those people tried to touch him, he wanted to escape.
But it had been prevented by Grandpa Mu's people. Two of Grandpa Mu's men pulled out their pistols and pointed to the man's right and left sides.
They told the man that if he did something else, he would die here. The man became obedient after that.

Yu Qi and Ming Xuehai had completed their goal of visiting the Country of Fangghai. So, it's time to go. Yu Qi went to meet Grandpa Su and Su Fan told them that he was going to leave soon.
As for Grandpa Mu, he had just called Grandpa Mu. He said he'd be out of the station for some business.
Yu Qi and Ming Xuehai left. Arriving at Binhai Nation, the two of them left separately. Yu Qi returned to the University. He wanted to take some items from his room before returning to the Tang Family Residence.
He took the bus to get back. He was lazy to call his family for fear of disturbing them.
Yu Qi also let Aoi out of space. Aoi was very happy that she was back with her master.
When Yu Qi arrived there, it just so happened that Grandpa Tang was also there. Yu Qi hugged his grandfather.
“Kakek.” Yu Qi was happy to see his grandfather healed.
“Yu Qi?” Ming Yue was surprised to see Yu Qi here.
Su Xiao was also surprised.
“I'm back.” Yu Qi smiled.
“This girl.. You should have told us. We'll go and pick up.” Su Xiao sighed.
“I arrived safely, right?” Yu Qi was still grinning.
“By the way, what are you doing here, Grandpa?” Yu Qi turned to Grandpa Tang.
“Your grandfather suddenly appeared yesterday. It was also a surprise for us.” Mingyu answered.
“What? Can't I come here?” Grandfather Tang asked.
“Dad probably felt that his favorite grandson would come back here. That's why he showed up here.” Su Xiao laughed.
Grandfather Tang actually counted the return of Yu Qi. Feeling awkward, Grandpa Tang walked away from the living room.
The three women laughed at the sight of his father-in-law and grandfather. The three of them spoke for a while until Yu Qi asked to return to his room.
“Master, this is a great opportunity to tell your family about the Mu.” Family Aoi voiced her opinion freely after they were inside the room.
“Yes. I also thought the same thing.” Yu Qi nodded.
Have dinner.
All the members of the Tang Family were present except for Tang Jang Qin and Tang Qin Hao. Tang Jang Qin is on duty. Well, for Tang Qin Hao, according to Su Xiao, he had not seen his son for about three weeks.
She was not too worried about him because her husband told her that their son was fine.
“Sister, you're back.” Tang Jin Wei.
“Hmm... How is your love life?” Yu Qi asked.
“Of course, that's amazing. I know my way with girls.” Tang Jin Wei patted his chest proudly.
“Ya... Yes... I want to know who the man who came to see me, asked for my help.” Yu Qi teased Tang Jin Wei.
“You...” Tang Jin Wei cannot argue about that.
“Welcome home, Little Sister.” Tang Han Lee patted Yu Qi on the head as he sat beside Yu Qi.
“I'm home, Brother Han Lee.” Yu Qi was acting like a good little sister.
“No wonder, dad has returned to this house easily.He knows that his beloved grandson will be here today.” Tang Jung Wen added.
“Of course.” Grandfather Tang put on a proud look.
They laugh.
