"Li Shaoyi?" Liu Yuntian pondered briefly, then suddenly realized and said, "So you are Li Xiaoqi’s granddaughter, you’ve grown up so much. You might not know, but I’ve had a good relationship with your grandfather, seeing each other several tis a year."
"Li Xiaoqi?" Li ngjie seed to have discovered a new continent, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she covered her mouth and laughed, "Grandfather Liu, how did my grandfather get that nickna?"
Liu Yuntian laughed heartily and said, "Your grandfather is extrely fond of liquor, and sohow he got his hands on a few jars of hundred-year-old pure brew. I too have a taste for it, so every year I go to beg a few cups to taste. But every ti before I arrive, your grandfather hides all the good alcohol and only entertains with so decades-old wine, hence I call him stingy."
"So that’s how it is." Li ngjie clapped her hands with a smile, "When I go back for the festival this year, I will definitely give him a good teasing. Li Xiaoqi... hehe..."
At this mont, Ling Xuejiu also ca forward, politely saying, "Grandfather Liu, hello, my na is Ling Xuejiu..." She hadn’t finished speaking when she was interrupted by Liu Yuntian’s acknowledgnt, "Your grandfather is Ling Tian, right?"
Ling Xuejiu expressed her surprise, "Grandfather Liu knows my grandfather too?"
Liu Yuntian sighed softly, his expression turning sowhat complex as he spoke, "How could I not know him, it’s just that we haven’t been in touch for many years. I wonder how he is doing now, is he still in Baiyun City? I should et up with him when I have the chance."
Ling Xuejiu said, "Thank you for your concern, Grandfather Liu, my grandfather is in good health. However, he is currently residing in Capital City and I’m afraid it’s not possible for him to et you."
"That’s really a sha," Liu Yuntian said.
Standing to the side, Leng Xuan caught the complexity in Liu Yuntian’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but ponder to himself what past did he and Old Master Ling have? Why did his expression change, becoming so forlorn and isolated, whenever Ling Tian was ntioned?
Just then, Ling Ao and Ren Fanghua approached. Seeing Liu Yuntian, they briskly walked over, their deanour extrely respectful as they said, "Old Master Liu, hello. I am Ling Ao, and this is my wife Ren Fanghua. We are delighted to et you and thank you for your invitation tonight."
"And you as well," Liu Yuntian reached out to shake hands with him.
Ling Ao smiled and asked, "I wonder what Old Master Liu was discussing with these youngsters just now. I hope I haven’t interrupted anything." He had previously been discussing business in a specially set up private room in the hall, so he was unaware of the interactions that had occurred outside. It was only when he ca out that he happened to see Liu Yuntian chatting with his daughter, which prompted his question.
Li ngjie hurriedly spoke up, "Uncle Ling, we just found out that Cold Bodyguard is Grandfather Liu’s godson."
"What?" Ling Ao and Ren Fanghua were instantly shocked, the news hitting them like a depth charge, their heads buzzing. Who was Liu Yuntian? Those in business were very aware, with Liu Corporation’s status being like that of an adult, while they were like children in comparison. Ling Ao’s thoughts were racing. Why hadn’t his father told him about Leng Xuan’s identity? Or was it possible he didn’t know?
Just at that mont, Liu Yuntian said, "Everyone, I’m sorry, please take your seats. I have so matters to discuss with Leng Xuan privately, so I’ll be borrowing him for a bit." Having said that, he took Leng Xuan’s hand and turned to leave. Ling Ao and Mada Ren exchanged a glance; though filled with many questions, in the end, they could only bitterly smile.
