No matter how cold and calm Bo Ye was, she couldn’t stand Fu Tingyan saying such things in public. Furthermore, she was still dressed as a male.

  “Wasn’t he afraid that others would misunderstand him?” she wondered.

  It had been four years. Every time she was careful not to let Fu Tingyan find out, it was also because of Bo Yin’s request. Bo Yin didn’t want others to find out that she was a girl, or else he wouldn’t allow her to learn martial arts.

  She ignored Fu Tingyan’s words and carried her luggage down the stairs.

  Fu Tingyan, who had been completely ignored, frowned and followed after her. “Bo Ye, do you really care so much about what other people think?”


  Shi Yan arrived just in time. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye. He opened the car door first and then went forward to take their luggage. “Young master, I feel that you have changed quite a lot in the past few years of martial arts training.”


  Fu Tingyan smiled and asked, “Is my Grandma doing well?”


  “The Old Madam is doing quite well. She’s waiting for your return at the old house,” Shi Yan said with a smile.

  After the luggage was placed in the car, Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye got into the car. Shi Yan also got into the driver’s seat and drove towards the old house.

  Fu Tingyan put one hand on his forehead and looked at Bo Ye. Four years had passed, but her face was still as cold as ice. “You haven’t answered my question just now.”


  Bo Ye turned her head to look at him but didn’t answer.

  Fu Tingyan asked again, “Do you really care so much?”


  Only then did Bo Ye reply. “I’ll go back to Zhongtai tomorrow.”


  Fu Tingyan knew that she had to go home eventually, so he didn’t ask her to stay. “I’ll give you a lift.”


  “No need.” Bo Ye refused.

  “It’s settled then. I’ll book a plane ticket for you.” Fu Tingyan took out his phone, then as if he had thought of something, he said, “We just came back from Fengyi Mountain. You can rest for two days before going back. Otherwise, I’ll feel sorry for you if you overwork yourself. I’ll book a flight ticket for you the day after tomorrow.”


  After saying that, he did not give Bo Ye the chance to refuse and started booking the plane ticket.

  Bo Ye was rendered speechless.

  He was still as domineering as before.

  After hearing Fu Tingyan say that, the corner of Shi Yan’s mouth twitched a few times. He raised his head and looked at Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye in the rearview mirror. A weird thought crept into Shi Yan’s mind.

  After Fu Tingyan booked the plane ticket, he made a call to Jiang Yu.

  “Xiao Yu, I’m back in Jiangcheng.”


  Jiang Yu was surprised, but at the same time, he was very happy. “So soon? Why didn’t you tell me in advance? So that I can pick you up at the airport.”


  “I want to give you a surprise. I’ll come out for a drink tonight.”


  “Okay, we haven’t seen each other for more than a year.”


  Fu Tingyan came back, and Fu Tingyu brought his wife and son to the old house for lunch.

  The little grandson returned from his martial arts training, and the eldest grandson brought his granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson back for lunch. The Old Madam specially asked the kitchen to prepare more dishes, which were the favorite dishes of Fu Tingyan and Fu Tingyu’s family.

  The Old Madam waited at the door early so that they could see her at a glance when they returned.

  Fu Tingyu’s family of three arrived first.

  Xiao Jiu had just walked into the courtyard when he saw the Old Madam standing at the door. He ran over with his short legs.

  “Grandma,” Xiao Jiu called out while holding the Old Madam’s hand.

  “Xiao Jiu, how long has it been? You’ve grown taller again.”


  The Old Madam was getting old. She could only hold onto the door frame and slowly squat down. When she looked at her great-grandson, her eyes narrowed into slits when she smiled.

  Xiao Jiu said, “Grandma, how have you been recently? Uncle is back. Grandma must be very happy.”


  The Old Madam hugged Xiao Jiu and said happily, “Grandma is also very happy to see you. We haven’t seen each other for some time. Grandma has missed you a lot as well.”


  Fu Tingyu held the girl’s hand. Seeing the Old Madam so happy, he went forward to help her up. “Grandma, sit down and wait. It’s tiring to squat.”


  “It’s okay. Xiao Jiu is too adorable.”The Old Madam looked at Xiao Jiu. Her eyes were filled with happiness.

  “Grandma.”


  The call attracted everyone’s attention. They saw Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye walk in.

  The Old Madam saw her grandson whom she had not seen for a few years. She was so happy that tears filled her eyes, so she ignored the fact that Fu Tingyan’s hand was still holding Bo Ye’s. It was a little ambiguous.

  However, Qin Shu saw it. After not seeing each other for a few years, Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye had lost their innocence. They had also grown a lot taller.

  However…


  She looked at their hands and wondered, “What was going on?”


  Fu Tingyu also saw it. His pitch-black eyes swept across the two people who were walking towards him. He didn’t want to ask anything while the Old Madam was present.

  Fu Tingyan stopped in front of the old madam. He looked at Fu Tingyu and Qin Shu and called out, “Brother, sister-in-law.”


  Qin Shu couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Fu Tingyan calling her sister-in-law with a straight face. “Little Yan, your mouth is sweeter than before.”


  Fu Tingyan only smiled and didn’t refute, because he had already taken Qin Shu as his sister-in-law from the bottom of his heart.

  “Yan, you’re finally back. I missed you so much, Grandma.” The Old Madam hugged Fu Tingyan and tears fell.

  “Grandma, I missed you too.” Seeing the Old Madam crying, Fu Tingyan also felt a little uncomfortable. He patted her back gently with his big hand.

  “It’s been three years. Let Grandma take a closer look at you.” The Old Madam raised her head and looked at Fu Tingyan, who was much taller than her. As she sized him up, she said, “You’ve grown taller and more handsome. You’re more like a man now.”


  Fu Tingyan smiled and asked, “Grandma, do you mean that I wasn’t a man in the past?”


  Fu Tingyu reminded, “Grandma, Xiao Yan has just returned. Let’s go in and eat first. We can talk while we eat.”


  “Yes, yes. Little Yu is right. I was so focused on talking. Let’s go in first and talk while we eat.” The Old Madam pulled Fu Tingyan and even held Xiao Jiu’s hand as they walked in.

  Fu Tingyan did not forget to hold Bo Ye’s hand. In order to prevent himself from being shaken off by Bo Ye, he kept a firm grip.

  Bo Ye did not break free from his hand and said softly, “Let go of me for now.”


  “I won’t let go. You’d better be mentally prepared.” After Fu Tingyan said that, he held her hand and followed the Old Madam inside.

  This time, Qin Shu saw it clearly. Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye were holding hands like a couple. She pinched her husband’s palm.

  Fu Tingyu looked at Fu Tingyan holding Bo Ye’s hand as if he couldn’t bear to let go. He couldn’t help but frown.

  Qin Shu asked him in a low voice, “What do you think?”


  Fu Tingyu said, “I’ll ask after dinner.”


  Qin Shu said again, “I think Yan is serious.”


  Fu Tingyu pursed his lips. He really couldn’t tell that his brother liked this kind of thing.

  Seeing that her husband didn’t say anything, Qin Shu reminded him again, “Everyone has the right to love, regardless of gender.”


  Fu Tingyu hadn’t made any comments yet. Hearing his wife speak up for his younger brother, the corner of his mouth twitched. Before his younger brother could say anything, she had already spoken up.

  Qin Shu actually just wanted her husband to be mentally prepared because she was sure that Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye had a relationship. Looking at Fu Tingyan’s posture, he would definitely say something shocking later. It would be better to help her husband to be prepared for it.

  The maids brought the dishes to the table one after another. The table was full of various dishes, which includes fish, meat, seafood, and vegetables……
