After leaving Mr. Mei, Yan Liti didn't say anything in front of Xiang Dongyan.

But when she was alone with Qiao Changdong and Qiao Qiao, she immediately asked the question.

"What does Mr. Mei mean by 'visitors from outer space'? He can't be referring to Xiao Jun, can he?"

"That Mr. Mei is really something, he only says half of what he means, it's driving me crazy!"

Qiao Changdong shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand either.

I just felt that this Mr. Mei was a strange person.

He said he was offering to have his daughter's fortune told.

But they didn't ask for his birth date and time, and only gave his daughter this message. Then, no matter how much they asked, he refused to say anything more.

They also inexplicably sent me a red ribbon.

Speaking of which, this ribbon is quite strange. It doesn't need to be tied; it just obediently wraps around the little bun on my daughter's head.

Just like the small bracelet on his daughter's wrist, you can't tell what material it is made of.

All these strange things combined left Qiao Changdong feeling completely confused.

Moreover, this Mr. Mei is not the kind of fake fortune teller who cheats people out of money and food; he actually has some real skills.

He seemed to know about each of them.

The saying "cause in the past life, effect in this life" doesn't seem like nonsense, considering his daughter's situation.

They could barely understand these things.

But who exactly is being referred to as the visitor from outer space?

Qiao Qiao felt it couldn't possibly refer to her mother. Her mother was so good to her, how could she possibly harm her? There was no need for her to worry about her.

Qiao Changdong felt that the red ribbon of unknown origin should be put away, since it was a gift from a stranger.

But Qiao Qiao shook her head and refused.

She trusted her intuition; she felt a strong connection with Mr. Mei and knew he was definitely not someone who would harm her.

When Grandpa Shen arrived in Baoyi City and found the hotel, which had been changed from Jianyou to Dongqiao, it was already past four in the afternoon, almost five o'clock.

He thought a lot on the train during the journey.

Especially during their last phone call, the hysterical things Yan Liti said on the phone had a huge impact on his mind and body.

Even if he knew that Shen Qingrong's motives for hiding the letter were impure, such as not wanting Qingyan to have a successor and thus plotting to seize the property.

In his view, these were already rather egregious things.

But he didn't expect things to get even worse.

Treating Qingyan's child as a human organ... It's no exaggeration to say that in Old Master Shen's eyes, this was utterly inhuman.

He didn't want to believe it.

He didn't want to think of human nature as so wicked, especially since the other party was his cousin.

But Shen Qingyan forced him to face the issue head-on.

Grandpa Shen has difficulty walking and usually avoids going out to avoid causing trouble for others. But this time, despite the bad weather and the approaching end of the year, he still came to Baoyi City in person.

I thought I would know everything once I arrived at the hotel.

result.

Upon arriving at the hotel, they discovered that not only was their granddaughter missing, but Yan Liti and Shen Qingyan were also not there.

Instead, he encountered someone else who surprised him quite a bit.

Two military vehicles drove into the hotel gate one after the other, with the passenger seats opened one after the other.

Dou Yufeng opened the front passenger door.

According to Dou Yufeng's original plan, she wanted to visit the detailed address Qiao Qiao had given her before going to Kyoto after the New Year.

She wanted to see what kind of family had adopted Qiao Qiao and what kind of environment Qiao Qiao was living in.

If possible, she would also like to express her gratitude to the Qiao family on behalf of Long Yijun's maternal family.

But she didn't expect that her father-in-law was even more anxious than she was.

Yesterday afternoon, after I went to town with Tan Hongwei to make a phone call, I came back and kept saying I wanted to come and see.

Dou Yufeng couldn't understand why this was happening the whole way.

It wasn't until she got out of the car first and went to open the back door that she saw a young man in military uniform getting out of the military vehicle that had come in with them, and then she understood why.

She remembered this familiar-looking young man; he was the bodyguard she had seen a few times when she visited Grandpa Tan at the military sanatorium, and he seemed to be surnamed Wei.

It turns out that her father-in-law went to town to make a phone call last night and found out that Grandpa Shen had also come here, so he specially came to see the excitement!

Dou Yufeng found it somewhat amusing.

As Mr. Tan was being helped out of the car by Tan Hongwei, Mr. Shen, also being helped out of the car by a guard, was getting into his wheelchair.

When Grandpa Tan saw Grandpa Shen, his tired appearance in the car vanished, and his small eyes lit up instantly, shining like a 100,000-volt light bulb.

No longer needing a cane or assistance, she walked towards people with small, quick steps, cheerfully greeting them.

"Hey, old buddy, what a coincidence!"

Before Old Master Shen could even sit down, upon hearing that familiar voice, he initially thought he was hallucinating.

When he looked up and saw Old Master Tan's smiling face, which resembled a withering chrysanthemum, his brows immediately furrowed.

He asked with suspicion and some uncertainty, "Tan Guosheng, isn't your hometown in Wushi?"

"Yes, it's in Wushi. I just happened to be visiting relatives here. I didn't expect to run into you, my old friend. Hehe."

The two "hehe" sounds at the end made Old Master Shen feel inexplicably uneasy.

He saw that the other members of the Tan family had also come over, including Tan Qian and Tan Yan, and assumed that they were really visiting relatives, so he no longer had any doubts.

Like Shen Qingyan, he was not good with words, and he spoke indifferently to Tan Hongwei and Dou Yufeng.

But deep down, he likes children.

So when Tan Yan and Tan Qian called him, Old Master Shen softened his facial expression slightly.

He nodded to the two children in response.

Seeing this, Old Master Tan felt even more gloating.

He had already met Qiao Qiao, and aside from her connection with his eldest daughter-in-law, she was indeed a lovable child.

He knew perfectly well why Old Master Shen had come here.

But he still stuck a small knife into the man's chest, deliberately asking Old Master Shen with a sly expression, "By the way, old friend, why aren't you in Kyoto waiting for the New Year in the dead of winter? What are you doing here?"

Before Old Master Shen could answer, he continued to speak.

"You only have one cousin, right? Doesn't your cousin's child often visit you at the sanatorium? Why are you here again? You can't be here to visit relatives again, can you? I haven't heard of you having any relatives in Baoyi City."

Old Master Shen was seven or eight years older than Old Master Tan, and his health was not as good as Old Master Tan's.

Because of the war, many of them suffered from health problems.
