Chapter 44: Grandfather

Su Yan followed the butler up to the third floor. The butler pointed to the innermost room and said, “That’s the Master’s room. Miss can go over directly, Master is waiting for you there.” The butler even smiled at Su Yan.

Su Yan clutched her chest and slowly walked towards the room. To be honest, Su Yan was indeed a little nervous. After all, this was the first time Su Yan had seen an elder in her life.

From Yun Zhen’s words yesterday, she could tell that Grandpa treated her father very well. He even groomed him as his successor. He was very heartbroken about her father’s death. Similarly, he was also very anxious about her disappearance. He had never given up on searching for her all these years.

Su Yan walked to the innermost room and looked at the carved door in front of her. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

A hoarse and old voice came from inside. “Come in.”

Hearing this voice, Su Yan’s hands suddenly trembled. Then, her body trembled uncontrollably. This voice belonged to Old Master Yun, who was her grandfather. Although many years had passed, the body’s reaction would not lie. Su Yan was very sure that she had memories of this voice.

“Xixi, come quickly. Come to grandpa. Grandpa’s got good things for you.”

“Xixi, look, Grandpa bought a new tea set. Is it nice?”

“Xixi…”

“Xixi…”

Almost instantly, Su Yan’s eyes filled with tears. She was indeed the Yun family’s Yun Xi, and the person inside was indeed her grandfather.

Old Master Yun waited for a long time, but the person at the door didn’t come in. Just as he was about to get up to open the door, he saw the doorknob move. Shortly after, a tall and beautiful girl walked in.

At first glance, Old Master Yun recognized the person in front of him as his long-lost granddaughter, Yun Xi! Old Master Yun’s hands were trembling and his eyes were slightly red.

It was Su Yan who suddenly laughed. As she laughed, tears flowed down again. Su Yan said with a trembling voice, “Grandpa, I’m back.”

Old Master Yun smiled as well. “It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back. It’s great that our Xi Xi is back.”

After a while, Old Master Yun said, “You must be tired. Come and sit down. Let me take a good look at you.”

Su Yan obediently sat beside Old Master Yun. Old Master Yun sized Su Yan up.

“Yes, you look so alike.” Noticing Su Yan’s puzzled gaze, he explained, “You look so much like your father.”

Su Yan was stunned. “Huh? But everyone says I’m more like my mother.”

Old Master Yun didn’t say much. He smiled and said, “Yes, you looked like the both of them.”

Blood relations were often the most difficult to cut off relationships. The moment she saw Old Master Yun, Su Yan relaxed. Even though Old Master Yun looked like a smart and serious old man, to Su Yan, he was amiable and respectable.

Old Master Yun was no exception. He asked Su Yan about her experiences over the past decade.

After hearing Su Yan’s story, Old Master Yun, who was still smiling at the start, suddenly laughed coldly. The aura around him turned cold as well. “They’re making use of our Yun family’s money to make a fortune, yet they’re still treating you harshly? I think they’re tired of living.”

Compared to a slick businessman, Old Master Yun looked more like a gangster who was not to be trifled with. Su Yan, who was amused by her own thoughts, couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Old Master Yun looked over curiously.

Su Yan could only smile and wave her hands under Old Master Yun’s gaze. “I just feel that having someone backing me up is not bad.”

Su Yan told the truth about her experiences in the Su family. She believed that with Grandpa’s abilities, it would not be difficult for him to find out about her past life. There was no need to hide it anymore.

Old Master Yun was amused by Su Yan’s words. He said mockingly, “Don’t think that I don’t know that the kid from the Shi family is helping you.”

How could Su Yan have thought that her grandfather would suddenly mention Shi Qing? Her cheeks suddenly felt as if they were burning, and she felt that she was not acting like herself.

Old Master Yun chuckled and said, “Alright, alright. Shi Qing has always been close to you since young. To be honest, I’m quite happy that the two of you are able to get together.”

The grandfather and granddaughter duo talked about many things, not having any thoughts, but it also made the separation over the past decade gradually disappear in this conversation.

Old Master Yun was very satisfied with Su Yan’s mannerisms. He felt that his family’s genes were good, and was glad that she was not affected by the short-sightedness of the Su family.

Su Yan also felt that Old Master Yun was sincere towards her. She only regretted not meeting Old Master Yun in her previous life.

“That’s enough.” Old Master Yun waved his hand. “The demons and monsters down there are all tired of waiting. We should go down and show our faces so that they know that I am still the one in charge of the Yun family.”
