"What?"
Old Master Qin could hardly believe it. He had invited Shu Yatou to dinner today, and someone had dared to cause trouble!
Bullying Shu Yatou?
Old Master Qin's face instantly turned imposing, "Remember them. Even if that Regent, as you say? Even if he comes, the Heaven-tier room will never be given to them!"
The shopkeeper immediately agreed.
Not giving them the Heaven-tier room was equivalent to refusing their business.
"How dare they say Shu Yatou's face is fake? And they want Shu Yatou to kneel? Damn it, are they worthy?" Old Master Qin was furious.
He kicked a nearby chair away.
Then he smacked his forehead, "Ah! Drinking has caused trouble! I still wanted Shu Yatou to come with me to see my grandson-in-law!"
It was such a waste of time!
As soon as Old Master Qin returned to his residence in the capital, Qin Manor, the people sent by Zhan Tianye quickly went to the shopkeeper to inquire about the situation.
Then, they immediately rushed back to inform Zhan Tianye of the news they had just received.
When Zhan Tianye learned that the "little friend" Old Master Qin spoke of was actually Yun Shu, he was utterly shocked!
"Not only does Xiao Li like her, but her maternal grandfather also praises her highly. This truly surprises me!" Zhan Tianye said in disbelief.
Xiao Li disliked any woman who wanted to marry him, and was full of hostility, calling them all bad women.
His maternal grandfather was even more so, saying that many women had ulterior motives, and he didn't approve of any of them.
Yet, these two, one old and one young, both praised Yun Shu highly!
His usually money-loving maternal grandfather even refused to do business with Yun Yueyin and Zhan Ming because they had verbally insulted Yun Shu!
"I'm going to see my maternal grandfather now," Zhan Tianye commanded in a deep voice.
Qiu Lu glanced at the sky outside.
It was dark.
However, judging by the King's expression, he seemed very shocked by the identity of Miss Yun Er as Old Master Qin's little friend.
Soon.
Zhan Tianye arrived at Qin Manor.
Old Master Qin, who had just finished bathing and was sitting on the bed drinking medicine, heard the servant announce Zhan Tianye's arrival. His hand trembled, and he almost spilled the medicine he was holding.
He was startled.
This medicine was expensive!
He gulped it down, grabbed the clothes beside him and put them on, covering himself with the quilt. He said to the outside, "Let him in."
Qiu Lu pushed Zhan Tianye inside.
After Zhan Tianye entered, he smelled the medicine and glanced at the empty bowl. The questioning tone he was about to use turned into a gentler inquiry, "Maternal grandfather, the little friend you spoke of who is close to you, is it Yun Shu?"
Old Master Qin was a seasoned observer.
He immediately understood.
"You investigated me at Huiyun Tower?"
Zhan Tianye hummed in response, "Does maternal grandfather know who Yun Shu is? Why did you suddenly become friends with her? How did she find you?"
It was chilling to think about.
Had Yun Shu disappeared without a trace for these past few years just to set up a scheme? xxs壹贰
Old Master Qin slapped the bed hard, "How dare you suspect Shu Yatou?! That's disrespectful!"
"Disrespectful?" Zhan Tianye's cold gaze deepened.
Did his maternal grandfather's words apply to him?
Saying he was disrespectful to him?
Or was it...
He felt something was strange.
Old Master Qin's eyes flickered, realizing he might have let slip something. Shu Yatou had told him that she wished for him to keep her identity as a skilled physician a secret, unless she herself told others.
Given his relationship with Shu Yatou, her identity absolutely could not be revealed to others.
Not even his own grandson.
"She is my friend. You dare to call her someone with ulterior motives, that is disrespectful to me!" Old Master Qin snorted.
He almost revealed too much!
Zhan Tianye had Qiu Lu hand a piece of paper to Old Master Qin, "Maternal grandfather, please read this carefully. Everything written here is what Yun Shu has done. Once you see it, you will know who she is and why she went to such great lengths to get to you!"
Then, Old Master Qin saw the past deeds of Shu Yatou written on the paper.
When he saw Shu Yatou's past, he slapped his thigh forcefully.
"This is concealing one's strength! Brilliant! Truly brilliant!"
Old Master Qin exclaimed, marveling, and even felt a hint of admiration?
Everyone in the capital, including his grandson Prince Ye from before, had been deceived by Shu Yatou!
Who would have believed that Shu Yatou was a skilled physician?!
"What?" Zhan Tianye's icy expression grew colder upon seeing Old Master Qin's reaction, but a layer of confusion was added.
She could be praised for this?
Old Master Qin steadied his surging emotions and set the paper aside, planning to re-read it carefully when they were alone.
Then he said with a stern face, "These are just some harmless matters. If Shu Yatou truly likes you, you should feel honored and happy. If you can marry her, I will spend a fortune and set off fireworks every day to celebrate."
Hearing this, Zhan Tianye's mouth twitched. He felt his maternal grandfather had gone mad.
"My heavens! Old Master, you, you are... What did Miss Yun Er do to move Old Master so much that he values her so highly?" Qiu Lu's eyes widened in shock.
It was too unbelievable!
Old Master Qin recalled his friendship with Shu Yatou, a hint of pride appearing in his eyes, "Shu Yatou doesn't need to do anything to be respected. Hurry and leave, both of you! I need to sleep quickly! Don't delay my sleep!"
Before he finished speaking, he waved them away.
He had to sleep at the time Shu Yatou had told him, as sleeping at this time was beneficial for his health.
If he delayed, and Shu Yatou noticed his pulse, how could he face her?
Zhan Tianye narrowed his dangerous eyes and said to Qiu Lu, "Let's go."
After the two left.
Old Master Qin immediately fell asleep as he said.
As soon as the door closed, Old Master Qin's snoring could be heard from behind.
Qiu Lu was even more astonished.
He hadn't seen Old Master Qin for two years. Didn't Old Master Qin used to suffer from insomnia?
"Could it be that this subordinate remembers incorrectly? Could Old Master have been able to fall asleep so quickly before?"
No, he remembered that previously they had been looking everywhere for doctors to treat his insomnia. Due to too many past events, Old Master Qin had been preoccupied and couldn't sleep for nights on end.
Zhan Tianye's icy face also showed surprise. After visiting his maternal grandfather today, he was even more certain that Yun Shu was not simple at all!
It was as if she was shrouded in a mysterious veil!
"This subordinate understands. Could it be that Miss Yun Er cured Old Master's insomnia?" Qiu Lu suddenly realized.
Zhan Tianye narrowed his cold eyes.
"So, Miss Yun Er's medical skills are extremely powerful!" Qiu Lu felt Miss Yun Er's medical skills were increasingly impressive.
Zhan Tianye looked up at the moon in the sky, and Yun Shu's figure seemed to appear before his eyes, a beautiful silhouette becoming clearer and clearer.
He had never imagined that one day, when he thought of her, he wouldn't feel disgusted and nauseated.
Instead...
Suddenly, a waist that seemed like it could be held in one's hand flashed before his eyes.
His face instantly turned stern.
...
At the same time.
Yun Yueyin, holding Gu Xiaofeng's hand, arrived at the entrance of the General's Manor.
