Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Bo Desong remained silent, his focus fixed on his cherished green plant. As he meticulously trimmed its leaves, a sense of dissatisfaction washed over him, prompting him to reach for a few more scissors. He paused and inquired, “What do you think?”

Butler Wen suddenly had a realization, his eyes widening with understanding. “Old Mr. Wen, have you shaped these plants into rabbits for Young Madam to enjoy?”

Bo Desong beamed with satisfaction, admiring his handiwork with a smile. In an effort to make Fang Yuan feel more at home, he had enlisted the expertise of several horticulturists to sculpt the flowers and trees in the courtyard into charming shapes. He had also ordered a thorough cleaning and decorating of the villa. The preparations made it seem as if the awaited guest tonight were not his granddaughter-in-law, but a distinguished VIP.

“Old Master, Lady Yuqi has arrived,” a maid announced suddenly. “Shall we escort her in?”

Butler Wen raised an eyebrow inquisitively, glancing at Bo Desong.

Bo Desong, who had just grown tired from the meticulous trimming, sank into a chair. “Invite her in. Prepare some tea and snacks.”

Cheng Yuqi, accompanied by the maid, stood before Bo Desong. Her eyes welled up with tears, and she spoke with a choked voice, “Grandpa!” She wiped away her tears and continued, “I feel both guilty and relieved to see you in good health and high spirits…”

Puzzled, Bo Desong asked, “Why are you crying?”

“It’s all my fault from last time! 1 wanted you to recover faster, but there was actually an issue with the Mind-enhancing Powder…” Cheng Yuqi couldn’t bear to meet Old Master Bo’s gaze. “I caused you unnecessary suffering… Thankfully, you’re such a kind-hearted person!”

Bo Desong chuckled warmly. “Hahaha… It’s all in the past. No need to dwell on it.” He didn’t bother explaining that the Mind-enhancing Powder wasn’t the problem; rather, his frail body couldn’t benefit from it as much as he’d hoped.

Meanwhile, the chef presented the menu to Bo Desong, displaying the dish’s name.

“Not bad,” Bo Desong observed closely. “Does this dessert contain chocolate powder? Yuanyuan doesn’t like that. Change it to strawberry-flavored.”

Cheng Yuqi was taken aback by the mention of Fang Yuan. She wanted to dine here? It seemed impossible. Furthermore, how did Bo Desong know her taste so well?

“Prepare more fruits as well, and cut them into charming shapes!” Bo Desong returned the menu with a smile and instructed, “The rest of the dishes are excellent. Please go ahead and prepare them.”

Cheng Yuqi maintained a polite smile and asked cautiously, “Grandpa, are there important guests coming tonight? I noticed a lot of people cleaning and decorating the courtyard. The preparations seem quite elaborate…”

“Your sister is coming! I’ve invited her over for dinner tonight,” Bo Desong sighed. “I never expected her to become Yi’s fiancee! Yuqi, it appears that our destinies are taking different paths in this life. You won’t be my granddaughter-in-law.”

Cheng Yuqi’s heart sank. She thought to herself, “I’m not as fortunate as my sister…” It was always Fang Yuan, ever since she appeared, nothing seemed to go smoothly for Cheng Yuqi.

“You’re a wonderful child. In the future, you’ll surely find a great family and a wonderful husband… It’s getting late. 1 need to check on the decorations in other areas!” Bo Desong glanced at the time, aware that Yuanyuan would be arriving in an hour. He took this dinner very seriously, telling himself, “This is Yuanyuan’s first visit here. I can’t leave a negative impression on her…” His words were filled with respect for his granddaughter-in-law.

As Bo Desong started to leave, Cheng Yuqi hurriedly spoke up, “Grandpa…”

“Is there something else?” Bo Desong turned around, his smile warm but different from before, leaving Cheng Yuqi with an uneasy feeling.

“I just won first place in a piano competition… I wanted to play for you to lift your spirits,” Cheng Yuqi wanted Bo Desong to know that she excelled in talents just as much as Fang Yuan!

However, Bo Desong didn’t seem particularly interested. He smiled and replied, “I’m in a good mood. 1 don’t need piano music right now.”

Cheng Yuqi persisted, “If you’re not in a hurry, please listen to me play the piano. Your refined taste and exposure to many beautiful melodies could help me identify any shortcomings…”

Bo Desong responded, “I’m quite busy today! Tonight, Yi is bringing his fiancee home for dinner for the first time. I won’t detain you, to avoid any potential gossip.”

Cheng Yuqi,Did the old man mean she couldn’t stay for dinner? Was he concerned that Fang Yuan might object if she found out? Why was he so considerate of that rustic girl?

Bo Desong remarked, “You’ve grown into a young woman now. It wouldn’t be appropriate for me to summon you here regularly. I’m concerned that your future in-laws might create complications if they discover you’re frequently visiting.”

Cheng Yuqi was taken aback. She hadn’t yet responded when he added, “Old Wen, please keep Yuqi company for now. 1’11 go check on things over there..”
