“Uncle…It’s my fault and I’m really sorry. I—”

“Lingshi and Lingtian were with us for years, and we were very happy. Tangchuan and Shurong only had one child: Mu Yuchen. The Mu family isn’t big. With the addition of Lingtian, ​​Lingshi, and Ah Mo, the house has been lively, so that was great. Over the years, the whole family has been very content.

“It’s a pity that Zixi wasn’t as lucky. If she hadn’t met me, she wouldn’t have been so unfortunate. I let her down. Neither do I want to make excuses, nor will I ask for forgiveness, but I will try to make up for it and protect Lingshi,” Gu Qiwu said solemnly.

“You can save those words for yourself. When Lingshi told me that, I didn’t give her an immediate answer. I thought about it for a while before I made the decision. If this decision is right for the children, then there’s no reason not to accept it. Living comfortably is better than being depressed. I’m now relieved that Lingshi has Ah Mo by her side.”

Mu Yinan sighed before continuing, “Ah Mo is a very self-motivated person. He’s been with me and Yuchen for many years, and he knows how to do his job. You should mentor him properly and take good care of the couple. Lingshi has never lived in City B before. She’s been moving back and forth between France and City Z all these years, so I’m afraid that she might not be used to it. When the time comes, the two servants from the old house can also be transferred to her place, so at least, she will be around some familiar faces…”

When Mu Yinan said that, he knew in his heart that he was unwilling to let Mu Lingshi and Ah Mo go, and he felt an inexplicable sadness. It was so hard to let go!

For more than 20 years, nearly 30, he finally watched these two grow up and he hoped that they could have their own family and children. Just when he finally got closer to his hope, both of them were going to leave home for the faraway City B…

“Uncle, thank you for your generosity and blessings. I’ll always remember your kindness…Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t let the Mu family down. Lingshi and Ah Mo are both free to come back whenever they want. You can also go visit when you miss them. I—”

Gu Qiwu could feel how downhearted Mu Yinan was, and he was truly grateful for the tolerance and generosity this old man had given him.

Only people like him could truly care for their children with all their hearts. Therefore, it was apparent why Mu Yuchen and Mu Tangchuan were so protective of their own people. Zixi probably felt the same. She probably also thought that having the children stay with the Mu family was better than staying with Gu Qiwu.

Mu Yinan finished his cup of Chinese tea and set the cup aside. He picked up his cane in one hand and slowly stood up.

“I’m going back. You should deal with your matters as soon as possible. Although I have no intention of pursuing the matter further, I still hope Lingshi’s father isn’t a suspect. My family hasn’t done anything to bring disgrace to our ancestors, except for Zixi’s case. We…I sympathize with you, Gu Qiwu, but I also hope you can understand where we’re coming from. In our eyes…” Mu Yinan paused as he said this, and he turned his head to gaze at Gu Qiwu. “There should be nothing more important than your children. They still have a future ahead of them.”

“Uncle, I understand!”

“As long as you understand. I hope you won’t let me down. Don’t disappoint your children again. Anyway, I’m leaving. Let’s see Zixi and Lingtian before I go back.”

“I won’t let you down!”

Click-clack!

The sound of the bead curtains clattering could be heard as Mu Yinan’s figure slowly made his way out the door and went out of sight. Gu Qiwu felt a little down though he could not quite explain it.

He understood that Mu Yinan could go to great lengths for the sake of Mu Lingshi and Mu Lingtian. He thought to himself that maybe only people who had been through hardships could have the maturity like that. He thought…

Nothing was more important than the children.

A qualified father should think this way, should he not?

The happiness of their children should be placed above all else, even when they were treated unfairly.

Gu Qiwu sat for a long time. When he left, the tea in his cup was already cold…

However, both of them probably would not have figured that when Gu Qiwu exited through the door, in the room next to theirs…

Mu Lingshi was already in tears. The tears streamed down her delicate face and into the teacup in front of her. Her tear-stained face looked as if it was burning.

She sniffled and reached out for the tissue that Mu Yuchen offered as he sat opposite her. Although she covered her nose and her mouth, she could not control the tears in her eyes.

They had heard the conversation between Mu Yinan and Gu Qiwu just now. Mu Lingshi was worried that they might get into an argument, so she had gone to take a look, but in order to put her at ease, Mu Yuchen had made arrangements for her to sit in the next room so that she could hear everything they said.

Mu Lingshi was surprised by Mu Yinan’s decision, but when she thought about it, it actually made sense. He simply loved his children so much.

“Brother, I’m sorry. I’m sad…I know that Grandfather is actually very sad too…I don’t know if I’m making the right decision. I really don’t want to leave Grandfather and this city…but I…” Mu Lingshi could not stop sobbing and sniffling as she said that.

“Why’re you crying? As long as you feel like you made the right decision, you should stick to it. No matter how far you go, this will always be your home. If you and Ah Mo can understand Grandfather’s good intentions, then that is all that matters,” Mu Yuchen said in a low voice.

Mu Lingshi nodded vigorously and said, “I know. Thank you, Brother!”

Mu Yuchen smiled calmly and could not help reaching out and patting her head. “You cry too much lately, unlike the Lingshi I knew before. Just learn to let go sometimes. No matter where you go, you must remember my words: whenever you have a difficult decision to make, think about which decision will be the best for you and the people you care about. Just choose the best solution without hesitation. It’s okay to lose sometimes as long as you feel it’s worth it.”

“I know, Brother!”

Mu Yuchen nodded. “Well, Gu Qiwu’s problem isn’t completely resolved yet. If you want to prove his innocence, you must find new evidence. I’ll try my best to stay here for the New Year.”
