When the person walked in, the people in the room couldn’t help but stand up.
“Grandpa.”
“Sir.”
Seeing the person, everyone shouted in surprise.
Elder Liu smiled and glanced at the people in the room. When he saw Yuwen Jing standing next to Chen Meng’er, his eyes paused, then, he looked away as if nothing had happened.
Others didn’t notice, but Yuwen Jing noticed Elder Liu’s strange behavior. He knew that Elder Liu had crossed the ocean to appear here this time, so his target should be him.

“Grandpa, why are you here?” Chen Meng’er walked to Elder Liu’s side, held Elder Liu’s arm, and smiled coquettishly.
“I was waiting so long for you to come back home. I had thought that you were going to settle in Country Y, so I rushed here,” Elder Liu said with a deliberately stern face. However, his eyes betrayed him.
“No, I just felt that the air here is pretty good, so I stayed here for a few more days as a vacation. I’ll be back in two days.” Chen Meng’er knew that her grandfather’s purpose for this trip was not that simple.
“A vacation is pretty good. You have been busy these few years. It’s time for you to take a break. But, before you take a vacation, shouldn’t you settle your business for me first?” Elder Liu said, his eyes drifted to Yuwen Jing.
Chen Meng’er didn’t notice Elder Liu’s eyes. She thought that her grandfather was talking about the Green Gang. She quickly said, “Taking a vacation is a vacation. I’ve been handling the Green Gang’s matters. There’s no delay.”
“Who said that the Green Gang’s matters are urgent? They’re just trivial. It’s not a big deal at all. Even if you leave it there and don’t deal with it, I won’t blame you.” The older Elder Liu was, the more indifferent he was to those things.
“What do you mean?” Chen Meng’er was a little confused.
“Ahem, I heard that you and that kid, Yuwen Jing, stayed in the room alone for an entire night?” Elder Liu coughed and pretended to be very nonchalant. However, his gaze betrayed him.
Elder Liu had already made it obvious. If Chen Meng’er still didn’t understand, then there was really something wrong with her. When Elder Liu said that, everyone immediately understood why Elder Liu had rushed over. Everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but fall on Chen Meng’er and Yuwen Jing.
When Zhou Yunjie heard Elder Liu’s words, he recalled how Chen Meng’er and Yuwen Jing had walked out of the same room that day. His heart couldn’t help but throb painfully.
Zhou Yunbo and Su Jin looked at Zhou Yunjie worriedly.
“Yes, there’s such a thing. Grandpa, did Uncle Zhuge call you to tell you?” Chen Meng’er didn’t get it yet.
“You don’t have to care who I listen to first.” When Elder Liu heard that Chen Meng’er had admitted it, he put on a straight face. He looked at Chen Meng’er and said, “Girl, you’re not young anymore. You’re not a child. How can you spend the night alone with a man?” Elder Liu said bitterly.
Because of the time difference, he calculated the time. He called to ask Chen Meng’er how things were going and when she could return to the country.
However, it was not Chen Meng’er who picked up the phone, but Zhuge Yu.
He asked Zhuge Yu to let Chen Meng’er pick up the phone. However, Zhuge Yu did not answer for a long time. Instead, he stuttered on the other end of the phone. This caught his attention. He immediately asked Zhuge Yu where Chen Meng’er had gone. Zhuge Yu knew that he could not hide it from his boss, so he told him the whole story.
At that time, Elder Liu hung up the phone. He thought about it again and again. He called again the next morning. The person who answered the phone was still Zhuge Yu. When Zhuge Yu told him that his granddaughter was in the same room as Yuwen Jing last night, he sighed.
After hanging up the phone, Elder Liu thought for a moment and decided to inform Elder Qu and Marquis Yuwen.
Without even guessing, when Elder Qu heard the news, he was so upset that he almost broke his walking stick. Marquis Yuwen said happily, “Haha, good, good. I told you; he won’t let me down. Haha.”
With how smug Marquis Yuwen was, Elder Liu and Elder Qu, who didn’t like him, almost went up and punched him.
Although Elder Liu and Elder Qu found the news hard to accept, it had already happened. Even if they didn’t want to accept it, there was nothing they could do. The two of them thought it over. Since it had already happened, they couldn’t let their granddaughter suffer any more losses.
They decided to personally go to Country Y to confront Yuwen Jing. However, it wasn’t that easy for Elder Qu and Marquis Yuwen to enter Country Y.
Thus, in the end, only Elder Liu appeared in front of Chen Meng’er and the others.
However, Chen Meng’er was also glad that only her grandfather, Elder Liu, appeared in Country Y alone. She did not even dare think that the impulsive and hot-tempered Elder Qu would come along.
When Chen Meng’er heard Elder Liu’s words, she knew that he was mistaken. Chen Meng’er hurriedly explained, “Grandpa, you’ve misunderstood. That day, I did stay in the same room with Jing. I needed to help him. Nothing really happened between the two of us. It’s true.” Chen Meng’er was afraid that Elder Liu would not believe her.
“I believe your words, but was Yuwen Jing also having such pure thoughts?”
Elder Liu thought of this and glared fiercely at Yuwen Jing.
