Chapter 149: Chapter 149 Mr. Mu Old Man

Seeing her grandfather’s delighted expression, Mu Yiliang couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.

After all, they hadn’t been apart but hadn’t really lost touch, so Mu Yiliang quickly restrained her emotions, and Mu Baoyun seemed not to have noticed her moment of lapse at all, smiling as he patted her hand: "You’ve raised Xiaoze well, how did you end up like this?"

Those words almost brought Mu Yiliang to tears again.

"Alright, alright, I won’t nag you anymore, lest you say I’m being long-winded." Although Old Man is almost eighty, his body is still very strong. Sitting on a small stool, he prepared tea for them, "Has Xiaoze ever drunk tea before?"

In front of Mr. Mu, Xiaoze became particularly obedient: "Great Grandpa, I’ve had tea before."

"Children shouldn’t drink too much, but you must finish this cup from your Great Grandpa." He handed a cup to Xiaoze with a smile, then passed another cup to Mu Yiliang, "Here, have a cup too."

"Hmm, thank you, Grandpa." Mu Yiliang sniffed the tea’s fragrance, "Grandpa, your skills are excellent."

At any rate, much better than Old Sir Yan...

"Haha, I used to teach you, you must have forgotten it all by now." He chuckled, "Back then, you were only seven or eight... in the blink of an eye, so many years have passed."

Mu Yiliang held the teacup without speaking.

"Have you gone to see your parents since you returned?" Old Man asked again.

Mu Yiliang shook her head, giving a bitter smile, "They probably don’t want to see me... Grandpa, you knew about what happened back then, right? My brother and I were kidnapped..."

"Oh... you found out." Old Man closed his eyes slightly, "I clearly told your mother not to tell you."

"It was... Yixun who told me."

"Ah... that girl, she’s almost ruined by her mother." Old Man sighed gently, "How old were you back then? Your mother putting the blame on you is simply unreasonable. Don’t take it to heart... you were also quite frightened at the time, fortunately, you were young and didn’t have lasting scars... as for your brother, let’s just say he was ill-fated. He always cherished you, so he would never blame you, don’t feel guilty over this."

Mu Yiliang’s eyes felt warm, and she gave a light "hmm."

Although she didn’t lose sleep over this, it was ultimately a thorn, causing discomfort each time she remembered it. Her grandfather’s comfort was incredibly precious to her.

Xiaoze listened earnestly to their conversation, eyes wide open.

"Grandpa, rest assured, I won’t blame Mom and Dad." Mu Yiliang smiled, "If they don’t want to see me, I won’t bother them, but if they need my help, I won’t stand by and do nothing."

"Good." Mr. Mu sighed with considerable relief, "When I decided to move here, your father vehemently opposed it. Without my influence, their path would be much more difficult, so your father probably always resented me."

"It’s because Dad doesn’t understand you."

Old Man’s heart was into academia, yet her father inherited none of his fortitude, being entirely a businessman. Grandpa had already compromised for many years to support Dad, and when it became impossible, he decided to withdraw from mundane affairs. But Dad truly was ruthless, completely ignoring Grandpa. Yet, as a father, he couldn’t bear to neglect his son, and Grandpa ultimately couldn’t stop worrying about Dad.
