The carriages and horses were resting in Luolan City.

Dong Huiying was feeling down. She had originally thought that this trip would be a family outing, a chance for everyone to play together, but her two sons were heartlessly left behind by the old lady, which was quite hurtful.

"Wife, look at me more, look at Junjun more, don’t zone out."

In a sweet, coquettish tone, Shujun fluttered over to Dong Huiying like a butterfly.

Dong Huiying continued to sulk, "I suddenly feel like going back now."

She felt like an incompetent mother, always away from her children, afraid that one day they might forget her.

Shujun was briefly stunned, when a White Pigeon flapped its wings and flew over.

Big Brother Zhichen took the message tied to the pigeon’s leg and handed it to Yixuan. After reading it, Yixuan was momentarily stunned.

The pigeon cooed, and Fourth Brother Haoming was also slightly taken aback.

Their unusual expressions aroused Dong Huiying’s suspicion.

"What’s going on?"

Yixuan smiled helplessly, "Wife, there’s no need to worry. Believe me, it won’t be long before we meet again."

"Huh?"

Haoming remained expressionless, his voice muffled as he said concisely, "Follow me."

Dong Huiying blinked hard, and after a moment of confusion, she suddenly exclaimed in shock, "No way! Could it be that the old lady brought the kids and is following us?"

Yixuan was also helpless.

"It seems that grandma ultimately couldn’t stop worrying, she didn’t want to stay at the manor and wait, and nothing can persuade me otherwise, so she agreed on the surface but secretly followed."

Dong Huiying’s eyes twitched wildly.

This old lady, she’s really something!

...

That night.

The group was still resting in Luolan City, but at the inn, unbeknownst to anyone, a few figures leapt out of the window and slipped into the night.

Leading them was Haoming. The city was crowded and it wasn’t easy to find someone, especially since the old lady was doing it deliberately, secretly trailing them with the intention of not showing herself for the time being. They also didn’t plan to make a big fuss looking for people.

The main reason being...

Since the old lady wanted to play, they might as well play along with her.

...

The old lady was staying with the two kids in another inn on the west side of the city. Officially, only Qin Chun was with her, but secretly there were countless people. After all, their safety during this trip had to be guaranteed.

The first layer of defense was the old lady’s personal confidants, the second was sent secretly by the Liang Family Brothers after learning about the old lady and the children’s whereabouts, and the third layer was designed by Haoming.

It was almost a seamless net, constantly watching for any movements from the old lady’s side, fearing that something unexpected might happen. Known as the Beast King, this man was meticulous, commanding his loyal ’little subordinates’ who were everywhere to keep watch.

Wu Wang had grown up leaving the manor only a few times. It wasn’t as if he never set foot outside, as Yixuan had frequently taken him out for walks, but it was mostly the child’s nature. This time, following his great-grandmother in a mysterious and sneaky pursuit of their dad and mom gave the child a secret thrill.

As a result, that night after they settled in the inn, and Little Star had been lulled to sleep, Little Wuwang was unable to fall asleep, mainly because he was too excited.

The old lady had grand plans. Upon arriving at the inn, she waved her hand boldly and booked the entire place.

At this moment, Little Wuwang was wandering around the back courtyard of the inn, clutching a handful of grass in his little hands, and said happily, "Great-grandmother said that when dad and mom see us, they would be very surprised. I want to see dad and mom’s surprised faces." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

This kid was becoming more and more articulate.

In the tree, the somewhat inept father, Liang Yixuan: "..."
