Inside the Xi Yan family's stronghold, everything was quiet and solemn.

The matter with Xiao Tong had been haunting Granny Xuan's heart.

Just as he was frowning, he suddenly thought of something.

She had called Xi Yan back. Originally, Xi Yan didn't want to come back, but since it was Big Sister Qin who said so, then it must be quite extraordinary as well.

"Ah Yan, I want to ask you something."

Although the younger generation had their own ruthlessness, Xiyan was still unrestrained and unrestrained. His legs were raised up high, acting as if he was not restrained by others.

He had always been like this, slovenly and carefree. He seemed to be arrogant and never took anyone seriously. In reality, he had his own answers in his heart.

The reason he did this was only because there was a restless voice roaring inside his heart, not wanting him to be a docile and obedient child.

"Grandmother, if there's anything you want to say, just say it. I definitely won't tell you."

He was already over 20 years old, so it was still laughable for him to say such words.

Grandmother Xuan sighed and took a sip of top grade Jasmine. The tea on the tea leaves slowly rippled as the hot water flowed.

The old lady was expressionless and calm.

"How did you and little girl Xiao get to know each other?"

When Xi Yan thought of this name, a strange feeling arose in his heart. Why did his grandma suddenly ask about Xiao Tong?

This woman's first meeting with him was truly laughable. If he recalled correctly, it could have turned into a melodrama.

"Grandmother, it's a long story. Let me cut it short …"

Before she finished speaking, Granny Xuan coughed twice, indicating that this was a very serious and serious topic. It was always Xi Yan who was so clueless that he also realized that the current atmosphere was unusual.

He spoke of his experiences with Xiao Tong and how she was almost stopped by him at the wedding.

After she finished talking, Granny Xuan actually revealed a knowing smile.

"I knew she was a kind and passionate girl."

A dark cloud hung over Xi Yan's head. This girl really knew how to win over people's hearts. It had only been a short while, but his grandmother had already been sold. He still remembered how he was mocked by this girl to the point of being ashamed.

"I say, grandmother, you wouldn't want her to be your grandson's wife, right? She already has a family, isn't that a little inappropriate for you …"

Xi Yan's mouth was always chattering, but now he was talking a lot. In that instant, he even imagined what it would be like for Xiaotong to marry into his home.

"Stop, you don't need to speak now. Listen to me about everything."

After all, Grandmother Xuan was already old, and she realized that she couldn't change the child's mind.

Big Sister Qin was also filled with emotion. This old woman had finally stuck her head out. Before, she was always alone, but now, her children and grandchildren were all circling her knees.

Xi Yan started getting nervous, he didn't know what Granny Xuan meant by those words.

Could it be that Xiao Tong really had some sort of connection with him that he couldn't describe? Xi Yan felt as if there was a domestic movie running in his head, showing all sorts of scenes.

Who would have known that he was so desperate to know all the stories about Xiao Tong and himself? That feeling of familiarity wasn't something that could be easily described.

"Grandmother, what are you trying to say?"

Xi Yan trembled slightly, an indescribable feeling of nervousness filling his words.

In that split-second, he seemed to suddenly understand something.

Granny Xuan sighed, her eyes seemed to be filled with helplessness and disappointment.

"Do you remember my words? You have an aunt."

Xi Yan lowered his head and thought for a long time. He had always been in the country. However, he had some impression of his aunt who had always been abroad. After all, he had been in the country for a long time, and although the family was rich, it was still far from the one his aunt had married on the other side of the ocean.

That was why Xi Yan and his father had always maintained a wait-and-see attitude towards this kind of prestigious clan, afraid that others would say that they were fawning on the powerful.

However, he truly admired this aunt of his. She was also a beauty that could topple empires. When people saw her, they would always be enthralled.

Xi Yan had met this aunt of his when he was very young. This aunt also had a daughter. With a single glance, he could tell that she was extremely intelligent and had a natural beauty, making him feel as if he had fallen into the dust.

This family's reputation was still flourishing. However, after his aunt passed away, Xi Yan rarely heard of this place. Now that Granny Xuan had brought it up again, he actually felt at a loss.

He suddenly had a feeling in his heart. Could it be that his grandmother had brought up the matter of Xiao Tong again and again?

Thinking up to here, Xi Yan kept shaking his head. How could he just send his little sister back to him in such a way? Even Xi Yan himself found it laughable. Moreover, the girl in his memory was so cold and detached. How could she be as carefree as Xiao Tong?

Anyone who offered a piece of candy would be able to run over happily. It was so silly that it didn't look like one at all.

However, the surrounding atmosphere was extremely tense, and Xi Yan's heart was extremely nervous. He was still very shocked. It was just a short period of time, but he was already about to accept such a miserable reality.

"Grandma, I'll listen to whatever you want to say."

The normally sunny boy had finally regained his composure and was waiting for an answer with a serious expression on his face.

When Sister Qin saw this, she knew that this was a private conversation between the grandfather and grandson duo. No matter how much she understood, she knew she should leave.

He went out and left the room to the two of them.

"Your aunt passed away a few years ago. I wanted to find that homeless child and didn't want him to suffer in there."

Xi Yan's mouth was slightly open as he looked at Su Hao with a trembling gaze.

"Grandma, you mean?"

Granny Xuan nodded, her face was calm. In the face of the passage of time, he seemed completely unaffected.

"Xiao Tong is the girl I was looking for. I really didn't expect that after such a long time, she would actually send this angel to my side."

Granny Xuan suddenly became agitated. She covered her face and almost shed tears.

Xi Yan was speechless, he didn't know what to say.
