CHAPTER 219: CHAPTER 219: GU YUNMU

This afternoon, aside from catching a pickpocket on the commercial street, nothing special happened to Tuanzi. Everyone went about their work as usual, making money.

By evening, the second phase officially ended, and the staff gradually dismantled the equipment.

Gu Chi stayed behind upon learning that his admired painter was going to hold an art exhibition in Sea City.

Tuanzi, on the other hand, knew Gu Cheng was returning to Jiang City and was preparing to meet her eldest brother.

Of course, during this time she answered several calls from Gu Che, who wistfully asked ’Are you going to accompany your eldest brother or second brother?’ ’Do you love your eldest brother or second brother more?’ Tuanzi simply asked the system to transfer the calls to her eldest brother, letting the two brothers discuss it themselves.

When tasks can’t be resolved, leave it to the brothers. She’s so clever, Tuanzi thought delightedly.

Although she didn’t know how the brothers ended up communicating, ultimately, she would return to Jiang City to reunite with her eldest brother!

Coincidentally, Gu Mo was going to a university in Jiang City for an exchange, so he decided to take her along.

Before departure, they met Yi Heng and his brother at the airport.

Thinking about the Ancient Martial System’s investigative results, Tuanzi pulled Yi Kai aside for a whisper.

"Your grandpa is also your family, if you’re unhappy at home, you can call him."

The little boy asked confusedly, "Miaomiao, why did you suddenly mention my grandpa?"

Tuanzi smiled sweetly, "Because I’m envious that you have a grandpa!"

The little boy awkwardly tried to comfort her, not really understanding Gu Miaomiao’s family situation.

He only had vague impressions of his grandpa, whom he saw twice a year, thinking of him as a very serious old man who always had a stern face.

"I don’t have his contact information. If he doesn’t come, I can’t meet him."

The little boy’s family background was considered decent, but his world was quite small, not having seen a broader world or met more people.

Tuanzi hurriedly gave him the contact information.

The system had investigated; Yi Kai’s grandpa was a tsundere who actually cared about his grandson a lot.

Yi Kai’s grandpa’s family and the Yi family didn’t get along, tracing back to Yi Kai’s mother’s marriage.

Ding Zhang did not agree to his daughter marrying Yi Fei, but Yi Kai’s mother seemed enchanted and insisted on marrying him. In a fit of rage, Ding Zhang severed father-daughter ties with her.

Later, Yi Kai’s mother came back to ask her father and two brothers for help with her husband’s movie, only to be scolded by Ding Zhang. Since then, Yi Kai’s mother no longer contacted the Ding family.

The Ding family’s two sons and the youngest daughter had a considerable age gap and didn’t get along well, but it wasn’t to the point of taking advantage of each other or fighting over the inheritance.

However, they didn’t meddle in others’ affairs. On the surface, Yi Fei took good care of Yi Kai, and they would see him only once a year, giving some gifts and a generous red envelope.

Ding Zhang was different; he missed his grandson quite a bit but was always blocked by Yi Fei whenever he wanted to visit him. None of the gifts he bought ever reached Yi Kai’s hands.

Tuanzi was sure if Ding Zhang knew Yi Fei was raising his grandson this way and physically abusing him, he would probably pick up a cane and go berate him.

The most urgent issue now was that this grandfather and grandson had no contact and couldn’t communicate with each other.

Yi Kai memorized the phone number with curiosity.

"Miaomiao, how do you know my grandpa’s phone number?"

"Ah, um," Tuanzi scratched her head, feigned innocence with a grin, "because Miaomiao knows everything!"

Yi Kai actually believed her.

[Ancient Martial System: This is all you can do. The rest of the path he has to walk himself]

Yi Fei wasn’t a good father, treating his two sons as money-making machines without any affection.

If he was strictly demanding of Yi Kai out of a father’s love for his son, concerned for his son’s future, it would be another matter. However, hitting his son just for missing one day’s early reading was excessive. Additionally, taking out his anger on Yi Kai was not something a responsible father would do.

However, if Yi Kai didn’t want to leave his father, hadn’t developed a bond with his grandpa, and didn’t want to go with him, there was nothing more the host could do.

[Miaomiao: I know, that’s why Miaomiao is teaching him]

The little girl held the little boy’s hand and patiently advised, "Family should communicate honestly. Those who love you will respect and care for you, but those who don’t love you..."

Tuanzi wrinkled her nose, almost naming Yi Fei.

Yi Kai nodded seriously, "Yeah, I have communicated honestly with my brother."

In his opinion, his relationship with his brother had improved compared to before.

Previously, he kept everything to himself, but now he would openly share with Yi Heng. Yi Heng didn’t give him a pleasant face, but his actions were completely opposite to his expression, resembling what his little friend described as someone who can’t express himself, a real tsundere.

On the other side, Yi Heng sat awkwardly next to Gu Mo.

Initially, he was worried about being recognized by fans but soon realized he was overthinking it.

Trying to break the awkwardness, he attempted to converse with the professor next to him but found this professor was constantly eating, sweets, chocolates, and little cakes, nonstop.

Yi Heng glanced at his side profile in speechlessness. This person looked cultured and handsome, about his age, yet had such a sweet tooth and could eat so much?

He was almost getting dizzy from the sweet scent.

When would those two kids return? For the first time, Yi Heng missed Tuanzi’s chatter.

At this moment, a bread appeared before him.

He looked over, confused.

"Not eating?"

Gu Mo was puzzled, "You’ve been staring at them."

Yi Heng: "..."

He could only accept it. Just as the two children returned, their flight was about to board. He stuffed the bread into Yi Kai’s hands and dragged him away.

Tuanzi tilted her head, then turned to look at Gu Mo, "Brother Gu Mo, what did you do to him? Why does he want to run away?"

Gu Mo: Looked innocent.jpg

Tuanzi gave up.

While their plane was still flying, another flight had landed at Jiang City airport.

The late autumn in Jiang City was quite cold. Those who feared the cold had already put on down jackets, while those less afraid wore coats or trench coats.

Most people traveling across provinces and cities would check the local weather forecast in advance.

As soon as people got off the plane, many wrapped themselves in coats.

However, at the exit stood a passenger who was completely out of place with the rest.

He wore a flamboyant, thin shirt with three buttons undone, a delicate necklace hanging around his neck.

With misty blue dyed hair slightly curled, wearing sunglasses, it was clear he was a handsome guy, and a very fashionably dressed one at that.

Gu Yunmu strode forward, feeling like he was the coolest guy in the airport.

His assistant followed closely behind.

This assistant wore a suit with an overcoat and carried another overcoat in the crook of his arm, clearly prepared for the boss, but the boss wouldn’t wear it.

He glanced at Gu Yunmu, unable to hold back.

"Boss, you look very handsome today."

Gu Yunmu curled his lips proudly, "I think so too. You have good taste."

Assistant: "Are you cold?"

Gu Yunmu: "...Cold."
