Shen Lingtan realized at this time that he almost let the cat out of the bag. He took a deep breath and managed to calm down. "I was impulsive."

Then, he turned to Yi Mu with eyes full of love and said, "Child, go home with Grandpa."

He planned to take Yi Mu back to the Shen family to make up for what he owed to his daughter.

"I won't go with you." Yi Mu refused outright. He keenly felt that there was something wrong with Shen Lingtan's unfinished words.

shi, which shi?

Are they hiding something?

Judging from their reactions, his mother's death was definitely not as simple as it seemed.

In this case, he can't leave even more.

Shen Lingtan didn't expect Yi Mu to refuse, "Not leaving? Why?"

Yi Mu didn't bother to make up an excuse and looked behind them. "Because—she."

Hua Xi came back from desperate situation, holding Happy's hand.

As soon as she stepped into the yard, she felt three pairs of eyes on her.

?

Look at what she does?

Just when Hua Xi was full of doubts, Shen Lingtan spoke.

"Chief Bai?" He turned back to look at Yi Mu, "Could it be that you and she..."

Yi Mu said firmly: "Wherever she is, I will be there. In short, I will not leave her."

Hua Xi:? ?

What nonsense is he talking about?

Shen Lingtan's eyes widened as he didn't expect Yi Mu to be so direct.

Li Qingchi was also surprised because he didn't realize that they had this kind of relationship.

However, this was consistent with his purpose, as he originally wanted to keep Yi Mu so that he could control Shen Lingtan.

"The child has said so, Ling Tan, just follow his will. He will be no worse off staying in my Li family than in your Chen family." Li Qingchi said.

Shen Lingtan didn't give up and asked Yi Mu again: "Are you really unwilling to go back with me?"

Yi Mu said firmly: "No."

"Okay." Shen Lingtan had to compromise. He couldn't bear to force Yi Mu.

He turned to Hua Xi and asked her, "Chief Bai, please take care of my grandson. If there is any need for our Shen family's assistance in the future, I will definitely do my best."

One of the reasons why Shen Lingtan felt relieved to leave Yi Mu to the Li family was because of Hua Xi.

He trusted her, and with her around, no one would dare to look down on Yi Mu.

Shen Lingtan didn't know that his seemingly weak grandson was actually a ninth-level martial arts expert.

It's just that he suffered a major blow these days, coupled with severe anorexia, which made him look pale and frail now.

Hua Xi: ???

"Are you done?" Yi Mu was obviously ordering him to leave.

Li Qingchi: "Let's go, don't disturb these young people getting along."

Shen Lingtan wanted to stay with his grandson for a while longer, but he was rejected.

Before leaving, Shen Lingtan gave his final instructions: "If you change your mind, remember to tell grandpa, and grandpa will come to take you home."

Yi Mu didn't even look at him.

The Shen family is not his home.

Only after the two of them walked away did Hua Xi let go of Happy, who was ready to move, and asked Yi Mu, "What nonsense are you talking about with them?"

Yi Mu squatted down, gently touched Happy who was rubbing his legs, and replied without raising his head: "Am I wrong? If I don't follow you, how can I find people from the other world?"

"..."

"How do you bring it here?"

"Moni said it has been barking for the past two days and has been on a hunger strike. She thought it missed its owner and was afraid it would starve, so she asked me to send it back to you as soon as possible." Hua Xi explained, paused, and then continued:

"Don't you think it's getting a little weird?"

In the past, Happy would not be unusual even if he hadn't seen Yi Mu for two or three months, but recently he has become particularly attached to Yi Mu, and would follow him almost wherever he goes.

"feel."

Yi Mu had noticed it a long time ago, but he didn't care.

People change, and so do dogs.

Yi Mu lowered his eyes, his gaze gently fell on Happy, and whispered: "You are thinking about her too, right?"

Happy nudged Yi Mu's hand with his nose and purred.
