Six years later, she took three milk balls to blow up the world

"……I see."

The light in Si Yejing's eyes faded away again, and he quickly returned to his usual cold and calm appearance without saying anything more.

He hid the sadness in his heart even deeper.

My great-grandmother is a person of her word. If she doesn't agree, it will be in vain no matter how much I say.

Why make her angry for nothing and then take it out on Grandpa Gu?
Si Yejing stood up calmly and said goodbye to Madam Si: "Then you have a good rest, I'm going back."

"Ah."

Madam Si nodded, very satisfied with Si Yejing's measured performance.

But watching Si Yejing's small figure revealing loss and disappearing little by little into the night outside the door, Old Lady Si's heart was in turmoil again.

She couldn't help but mutter to herself: "Ye Jing, don't blame grandma for being cruel, it's really..."

Just then, there was a sudden noise outside the door.

Madam Si's expression changed: "What's going on?"

"The young master missed his step and fell down!"

Someone came in hurriedly to answer, too scared to look up at Old Madam Si.

Madam Si was startled, but she did not blame them for not taking good care of him. She was silent for a moment, and with a gloomy face, she asked someone to pass on the message: "Call Ye Jing back and tell him that I promised him."

"Yes!"

The servant did not dare to ask what the old lady had agreed to, and ran to pass on the message.

Ten seconds later, Si Yejing's tiny figure ran back.

His steps were still a little unnatural, but his face was full of surprise: "Grandma, did you really promise me?"

"Well, I promise you." Madam Si pulled Si Yejing in front of her and checked his wound with lingering fear: "Let me see, where did you fall?"

"It's okay, I just bumped my knee a bit, it doesn't hurt anymore."

Si Yejing pulled up his trouser leg to show Madam Si where he had been hit, then he jumped twice on the spot to show that he was fine.

Madam Si also knew that compared to the usual brutal training, these minor bumps and bruises were nothing, but she still felt distressed instinctively.

She has nothing now, and Si Yejing is her only hope. She cannot tolerate any mistake made by Si Yejing.

Of course, she also couldn't tolerate Si Yejing becoming estranged from her.

Madam Si had someone bring some medicine and personally applied it to the bruise on Si Yejing's knee, speaking to him in a slow and gentle voice.

"Grandma promised you to follow Gu Shiyuan to Haicheng, but you have to promise her one thing."

"You say." Si Yejing looked at Madam Si without blinking, and prepared himself mentally.

As long as he could go to Haicheng to see Nuannuan, he would agree no matter what his grandmother said.

But the request made by Mrs. Si was unexpectedly simple.

"Whether you are on the road or in Haicheng, you must stay with Gu Shiyuan at all times except for going to the bathroom. You cannot leave him for even a moment."

"Is that all?" Si Yejing didn't think there was anything wrong with this request.

In order to avoid Si Qizhen's conspiracy, Madam Si had told him the same thing when she asked him and Gu Shiyuan to go to China to live.

The purpose is to ensure his safety and avoid accidents.

It seems that grandma is still worried about his safety and wants Gu Shiyuan to protect him.

Si Yejing agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I will follow your instructions and stay with Grandpa Gu at all times."

"That's good. Be careful. Grandma will be waiting for you at home."

Old Madam Si touched Si Yejing's head lovingly, and there was a rare bit of tenderness and affection between the great-grandmother and grandson.

Si Yejing chatted with Madam Si for a while before happily saying goodbye and leaving. The luxuriously decorated living room regained its quietness, and a figure walked quietly to Madam Si's side. It was Wang Ma, the trusted maid who had taken care of Madam Si for decades.

Seeing that Madam Si was in a bad mood, Wang Ma spoke carefully.

"Old Madam, since you are worried about the young master, why did you agree to let him take the risk?"

When there is no one around, Madam Si will occasionally talk about her worries with her confidants.

Wang Ma's words just hit the nail on the head.

Madam Si was aroused to confide a little, and sneered: "Because Gu Shiyuan is an ungrateful person who can never be tamed."

"He had nothing back then and obeyed me in everything. But now that he has grown stronger, he dares to go back to China without permission... People like him will bite me back one day."

"But I can't openly go against him now. Ye Jing is still too young, and the Si family still needs his help."

"But..." The more Wang Ma listened, the more confused she became. She really didn't understand what Madam Si meant. "In this case, we shouldn't let the young master follow Mr. Gu to China. If Mr. Gu had ulterior motives, how could he care about the young master's life or death? And..."

Wang Ma's tone became more cautious: "Mr. Gu has been loyal to you for so many years, he will not betray you."

"Not now, but who can say what will happen in the future?"

Madam Si glanced at Aunt Wang, her cold eyes showing full of caution and alertness.

Aunt Wang felt the coldness in Madam Si's eyes and quickly lowered her head, not daring to say anything more.

After experiencing the ups and downs of most of her life, Mrs. Si's suspicion has become an instinct.

As a servant, it was very dangerous for her to talk too much.

Only then did Old Madam Si retract her gaze and look out into the dark night.

"Gu Shiyuan was able to tell me the Zhan family's affairs candidly. There is no need to worry in the short term. We should look at the long term."

"People's hearts are unpredictable. When I saved Gu Shiyuan, I believed that he was devoted to me. Over the years, he has been diligent in managing the Si family. But he used to be alone, without any worries, but now he is married, has a wife, and is getting closer and closer to the Zhan family."

"Who can guarantee that he will always be as loyal as he is now?"

Madam Si's voice was like cold raindrops hitting the ground, causing Wang Ma to bow her head once again. She was silent as a cicada and dared not say another word.

The living room fell silent again. After a while, the cold aura from Madam Si finally eased a little.

She waved her hand, asking Wang Ma to come closer.

"Come here and do something for me."

Aunt Wang quickly walked up to Old Madam Si and bowed her head.

Madam Si gave her a few instructions in a low voice, and reminded her again: "...Be careful, don't let anyone know."

"Yes." Wang Ma's eyes lit up: "Old Madam is wise, this is a good idea!"

Madam Si didn't take Wang Ma's compliments seriously and waved her hand to let her do it: "Go ahead."

Aunt Wang immediately bowed and stepped back, then walked out quickly.

Only then did Madam Si let her tired body lean against the soft backrest and showed a moment of relaxation.

She was tired of taking every step carefully.

But she has been walking on the edge of a knife for most of her life, and it is very difficult for her to trust someone wholeheartedly.

On the other hand, Gu Shiyuan was surprised to receive the news that Madam Si agreed to let Si Yejing go to China with him.

But he soon recovered and went to see Madam Si again, promising that he would take good care of Si Yejing.

Gu Shiyuan had experience of bringing Si Yejing to live in China before, and the other people in the Si family didn't say anything when they found out.

Gu Shiyuan finalized the itinerary smoothly and notified Zhan Mochen immediately. (End of this chapter)
