"But …" But, "Tao Ran still looked confused," but, why, why are they watching me?

"Because, Grandpa, he … "He …" Tao Tian bit his lips, unable to continue.

"Yao Yao, what's wrong?" Tao Ran lightly patted the back of Tao Tian's hand.

While the two of them were talking, Irene quietly appeared in Sunshine Restaurant.

"Miss, do you have an appointment?" The waiter politely asked.

"Sorry, I'm looking for someone." Eileen stroked the Black Suo on her nose, looking around while she answered the waiter's question absentmindedly.

"Oh, may I ask who you are?" The waiter dutifully continued to ask.

"Ah, there's no need to trouble you. I'll just look for myself." Irene was still observing the surroundings, rushing in step by step.

Irene stood in the middle of the dining room and looked around, trying to find Tao Tian's figure. However, even though she had scoured almost all the corners, she still couldn't see half of Tao Tian's figure.

"Why is there no sign of Tao Tian?" Irene said to herself, "Did I hear wrong?" The day was so far away, it was normal to mishear it.

Thinking this way, Irene couldn't help but feel disappointed. She was very sure that Tao Tian and Qing Qing were indeed conspiring against each other that day. What, exactly, would it be?

Irene was unwilling to give up, looking around again, but in the corner, she saw Qing Qing. Yes, it was Qing Qing. She had been to Tao's house once and recognized Qing Qing's clothes.

Irene quietly walked toward their table, but didn't dare to get too close, so she could only choose a place that wasn't too far away and sat down, listening attentively to their conversation.

On the other side, Tao Tian was in a hurry to explain the situation within a limited time, so he asked his older brother for help. On the other side, Tao Tian was in a hurry to explain the situation within a limited time, so he asked his older brother for help.

"Big brother, do you know, grandpa, he … "He …" His grandfather's position in his brother's heart was unshakable. Although big brother knew some of his grandfather's methods, it was difficult for him to agree with him. But after all these years of bringing up and raising grandpa, big brother's feelings for grandpa were also very deep. It was just that the night before she got married, he had always been very respectful towards grandpa.

"Hurry up and tell me. Did grandpa ask you to do some tasks again?" Seeing how Tao Tian seemed to want to say something, Tao Ran guessed a bit.

Tao Tian didn't reply, but only nodded his head. She didn't know how to tell her brother. Would he feel sad about her grandfather's threats? Would he feel worse than he did?

"What is it?" Tao Tian seemed to have noticed that something was amiss, so he asked.

"Grandfather, let me … kill …" Tao Tian struggled to adjust his voice. "Lei Zichen …" Tao Tian seemed to have exhausted all of his strength in order to clearly say the last few words.

"What?" Tao Ran widened his eyes as his hands froze in place as if he had lost all consciousness.

Not only Tao Ran, but also Irene who was sitting beside him and eavesdropping on their conversation.

She couldn't hear them, just stared at their lips.

When she saw 'Qing Qing's' slaying mouth of Lei Zichen, she was so shocked that she almost let out a cry. Luckily, she covered her mouth with her hands in time.

"Tao Tian, ah, Tao Tian, you really are the one who wanted to harm me, Brother Zirai." Elin was so angry that she almost stomped her foot. However, she was afraid of being discovered. After all, her position was very dangerous.

She held herself back and continued to listen, unable to hear their voices. Irene was so anxious that she almost stretched her neck out.

He tried his best to see the shape of Qing Qing's mouth and guess what they were talking about.

Grandfather, when did I tell you …" Tao Ran came back to reality. He had gone through a lot and helped his grandfather to kill a lot of people. He had taken care of a lot of troublesome matters.

However, his grandfather had actually viciously asked Tao Tian to kill his new husband. This was quite a …

He had always known that his grandfather wasn't a simple person, but he just hadn't thought that he would be so heartless that he wouldn't even let his granddaughter go.

"The night before the wedding." Tao Tian slowly enunciated each word as he looked at Tao Ran.

Tao Ran suddenly understood. No wonder Tao Tian looked so strange that day. So that's how it was. Oh god, what kind of suffering was his little sister going through?

"Grandfather also said that if I don't finish the mission within two months, then …" As he spoke to here, tears began to flow down Tao Tian's face.

She could accept that. After all, she was a girl, but as for her brother, for the sake of hatred, he actually held her brother's life in his hands. As a bargaining chip, who was left in his life?

"So what if he is? What do you think?" This was simply too ridiculous. He had asked his new wife to kill his beloved husband. Tao Ran's voice was a bit too loud, causing the surrounding people to continuously look at them. Tao Tian looked around and patted his older brother.

He tried his best to calm him down, because the truth would perhaps bring him closer to the brink of collapse.

This glance of Tao Tian's gave Irene a fright.

She hurriedly retracted her neck. Thankfully, she was not at ease. Tao Tian was also a chaotic place, so no one had anything wrong with their surroundings.

"Grandfather said that if I don't complete the mission within two months, he will … "Then he …" Tao Tian tried his best to calm himself down. He bit his lips and said with great determination.

"I'll kill you …" After Tao Tian finished speaking, his eyes were filled with tears. It seemed that the grievances of the past few days could finally be spat out.

However, she looked at her brother with an uneasy expression, afraid that he would go crazy.

"What?" Surprisingly, Tao Ran didn't even have the strength to go crazy. The veins on his face bulged out as his body collapsed on the sofa as he stared woodenly at Tao Tian.

"Are you saying that grandfather wants you to kill Lei Zichen, or else I will die? Using my life as a bargaining chip? " Tao Ran pointed at himself as he spoke, but he seemed to be dispirited.

Tao Tian saw his older brother's hand tightly gripping the tablecloth, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces. His eyes were also brimming with tears, but he was still trying his best to hold it in. His face was completely red, and his veins were popping out, causing him to break out in a cold sweat, afraid that his older brother would do something rash.

After bearing the burden alone for so many days, Tao Tian had already slowly adapted to the shock and helplessness of this matter. He spent more of his time thinking about how to resolve it.

But Tao Ran had only just faced this reality. Tao Tian really didn't know what would happen to him.

Irene, who was watching from the side, found it strange. Why was Qing Qing's face so sour while that strange man's expression was one of extreme grief and indignation.

Just what was going on?

Irene stretched out her neck, trying to listen, even though she could clearly see the conversation between the two. Qing Qing must have been sent by Tao Yao, but this strange man … Eileen thought as she listened.

"Big brother, big brother, don't be like this …" Tao Yao tugged at the corner of her brother's shirt, trying to bring him back to reality.

"Yao Yao, so you want to choose?" Tao Ran was already prepared to fulfill his sister's happiness.

"Big brother, what are you talking about!" Tao Tian's face was filled with amazement. "You're my big brother. If you die, then I won't be able to live anymore." Tao Tian was decisive.

The expression on Tao Ran's face looked gratified.

"Yao Yao, the reason you called me here today is because …?" Tao Ran calmed down. He had already guessed his sister's purpose in coming here, but he still wanted to confirm it.

"Brother, I think you've already guessed that I want both of you to live. Even if I die, I want you to live well." Tao Tian spoke passionately. When Tao Ran heard this, he was also moved.

"Yaoyao, don't say it like that. Let's make a good plan. That's good. I believe in my brother. There will definitely be a way to solve this." Tao Ran completely calmed down and began to plan out how he would deal with this situation. Although his heart was still aching, with his many years of understanding of his grandfather, with his personality, it wasn't strange at all. He had always been someone who would do anything to achieve his goal, not to mention the life of a little foster grandson.

Thinking about this, Tao Ran smiled self-deprecatingly. Perhaps, he had overestimated himself, but luckily, he still lived in this world alone from time to time. At the very least, he had a younger sister who cared about his life.

He still felt warmth in his heart.

"Big brother, why don't we go? Take me with you and leave this place far away." As Tao Tian spoke, his face was full of excitement as he urgently looked at his brother.

"Yao Yao, if we leave, what should we do with Zichen?" This time, it was Tao Ran who kept comforting his sister, trying to calm her down.

"Without me, it would've been impossible for grandpa's men to get close to Zichen," Tao Tian carefully analyzed, "The reason it's me is because Zichen and I are in love so we can't be on guard against each other. So, I'm the best choice to kill him." Tao Tian helplessly smiled. It wouldn't be too much to just analyze it from a technical point of view and assign her to kill someone.

However, from a emotional point of view, even if she were to die a hundred times over, she would not be able to harm a single hair on Lei Zichen's head.

"Yaoyao, listen to me. We still have two months. We will think over this matter for a long time. Within two months, we will have a plan with both of us." Tao Ran consoled his sister while his mind raced, trying to find a reasonable solution.

"Brother, can I start now and hate grandpa?" Tao Tian raised his eyelids to look at his brother. His black eyes were like limpid autumn water. He couldn't see the bottom, but they were clear and transparent.

"This …" Tao Ran was speechless and didn't know how to answer this question. Yao Yao was indeed a kind girl. She even wanted to ask a person if she could hate them.

"Up to you. If you hate her, then do your best to hate her. Don't let yourself be wronged." Tao Ran's heart ached as he looked at his sister's diminishing face.

Just how much energy was hidden within this small body that it would have the willpower to face so many impermanence in the world.

"Yao Yao, trust big brother, I will do it." Tao Ran looked at his sister resolutely. How could he not want to bring his sister and escape from here? Ever since Su Shigang's case, Tao Tian had said twice that she wanted to leave, but he didn't have the ability to do so right now.

"Mm. Big brother, I want you to live a good life." Tao Yao looked at his older brother. The fire in his eyes seemed to be on fire.

"Yao Yao, we must live well." The brother and sister were being pulled closer and closer by an invisible force, as if they had already become one.
