Chapter 701: Music Soiree 13

"Li Shaoyi?" Liu Yuntian pondered briefly, then suddenly realized and said, "So you are Li Xiaoqi’s granddaughter, you’ve grown up so much. You might not know, but I’ve had a good relationship with your grandfather, seeing each other several times a year."

"Li Xiaoqi?" Li Mengjie seemed to have discovered a new continent, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she covered her mouth and laughed, "Grandfather Liu, how did my grandfather get that nickname?"

Liu Yuntian laughed heartily and said, "Your grandfather is extremely fond of liquor, and somehow he got his hands on a few jars of hundred-year-old pure brew. I too have a taste for it, so every year I go to beg a few cups to taste. But every time before I arrive, your grandfather hides all the good alcohol and only entertains me with some decades-old wine, hence I call him stingy."

"So that’s how it is." Li Mengjie clapped her hands with a smile, "When I go back for the festival this year, I will definitely give him a good teasing. Li Xiaoqi... hehe..."

At this moment, Ling Xuejiu also came forward, politely saying, "Grandfather Liu, hello, my name is Ling Xuejiu..." She hadn’t finished speaking when she was interrupted by Liu Yuntian’s acknowledgment, "Your grandfather is Ling Tian, right?"

Ling Xuejiu expressed her surprise, "Grandfather Liu knows my grandfather too?"

Liu Yuntian sighed softly, his expression turning somewhat complex as he spoke, "How could I not know him, it’s just that we haven’t been in touch for many years. I wonder how he is doing now, is he still in Baiyun City? I should meet up with him when I have the chance."

Ling Xuejiu said, "Thank you for your concern, Grandfather Liu, my grandfather is in good health. However, he is currently residing in Capital City and I’m afraid it’s not possible for him to meet you."

"That’s really a shame," Liu Yuntian said.

Standing to the side, Leng Xuan caught the complexity in Liu Yuntian’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but ponder to himself what past did he and Old Master Ling have? Why did his expression change, becoming so forlorn and isolated, whenever Ling Tian was mentioned?

Just then, Ling Ao and Ren Fanghua approached. Seeing Liu Yuntian, they briskly walked over, their demeanour extremely respectful as they said, "Old Master Liu, hello. I am Ling Ao, and this is my wife Ren Fanghua. We are delighted to meet you and thank you for your invitation tonight."

"And you as well," Liu Yuntian reached out to shake hands with him.

Ling Ao smiled and asked, "I wonder what Old Master Liu was discussing with these youngsters just now. I hope I haven’t interrupted anything." He had previously been discussing business in a specially set up private room in the hall, so he was unaware of the interactions that had occurred outside. It was only when he came out that he happened to see Liu Yuntian chatting with his daughter, which prompted his question.

Li Mengjie hurriedly spoke up, "Uncle Ling, we just found out that Cold Bodyguard is Grandfather Liu’s godson."

"What?" Ling Ao and Ren Fanghua were instantly shocked, the news hitting them like a depth charge, their heads buzzing. Who was Liu Yuntian? Those in business were very aware, with Liu Corporation’s status being like that of an adult, while they were like children in comparison. Ling Ao’s thoughts were racing. Why hadn’t his father told him about Leng Xuan’s identity? Or was it possible he didn’t know?

Just at that moment, Liu Yuntian said, "Everyone, I’m sorry, please take your seats. I have some matters to discuss with Leng Xuan privately, so I’ll be borrowing him for a bit." Having said that, he took Leng Xuan’s hand and turned to leave. Ling Ao and Madame Ren exchanged a glance; though filled with many questions, in the end, they could only bitterly smile.
