The old man was not actually very old. He was of medium build and looked ordinary. Standing outside the hall of the Sun Mansion and chatting with guests, he looked like a gentle rich man, not a famous leader in the south of the Yangtze River.

Yun Chuxiu jumped off the carriage, spread out the fan to cover his forehead, squinted his eyes and looked at the guests coming and going around him. He found that in addition to the martial artists with swords, there were actually quite a few ordinary people who did not know any martial arts. He could not help but be a little surprised. After all, congratulating martial artists on their birthdays was not something they would do.

He wanted to ask Yuan Suiyun, but after he got off the carriage, he walked straight to the gate. A tall, burly, slightly fierce-looking man was standing at the door to welcome guests. Yuan Suiyun walked up to him, put his hand on his shoulder, and called out eagerly, "Brother Sun!"

"Suiyun!" This person was none other than Sun Jian, the eldest young master of the Sun residence. He grabbed his arm in great surprise, stared at his eyes for a long time, and then hugged him excitedly: "Good boy! Your eyes are really healed! I'm so happy for you!"

He took Yuan Suiyun's hand and led him to the inner hall: "Quick, quick, come with me to see my father! He heard that you were coming to celebrate his birthday, and he was so happy that he kept talking about me all night!"

"Wait a minute." Yuan Suiyun stopped him. "There are others here. Uncle Hua specifically asked the brothers to look after me. How can you ignore them?" He turned around and waved at the two young masters of the Hua family. "Third brother, fifth brother!"

"It's the Third and Fifth Boys. I didn't notice them just now. It's my fault. I'll drink three cups as punishment later!" Sun Jian laughed and stepped forward to hug one of them. Hua Manxi, the Fifth Young Master, said to Hua Manju, the Third Young Master, "Third Brother, look, since Suiyun came, you and I have become yesterday's flowers, and we are no longer worthy of the attention of the First Young Master Sun."

Hua Manyu then said with a smile: "Go, what kind of person are you? How can you be compared with Suiyun? It is human nature to like the new and dislike the old, not to mention our handsome and romantic Master Sun who has many friends."

Sun Jian scratched his head helplessly: "I just said this, and you have so many words waiting for me. Who are we talking to? Sui Yunke has come to Jiangnan, so of course I have to entertain him more. What's wrong with that!"

"Yes, yes, yes... Who dares to say that you are not good, young master?"

"I won't talk to you anymore. You go in and sit down first, I'll be here in a bit." Sun Jian called the servants over and asked them to take the two young masters of the Hua family to the table. When he turned back to look at Yuan Suiyun, his eyes lit up - he saw him bringing a tall beauty in white clothes and pink skirt back to him. The man was as elegant as pine and bamboo, and the woman was as beautiful as a rose. They were really a perfect match. Without waiting for Yuan Suiyun to speak, he asked spontaneously: "Did you bring your wife with you this time? Suiyun, this is your fault. You should have invited me to your wedding!"

Yuan Suiyun said angrily, "Since you said so yourself, why are you still talking nonsense here? This is Yun Chuxiu, Miss Yun. I brought him here because I need your help with something."

Sun Jian was stunned at first, then he couldn't help but tease: "The girl has something to ask for, but you don't help her solve it yourself, but actually bring her to see my father, Suiyun, what's wrong with you? Why don't you be smarter at this time?"

Yuan Suiyun looked a little aggrieved: "I just want to help, but others have to be willing..." He gave Yun Chuxiu a sidelong glance. "Don't you think so? ... Miss Yun?"

Yun Chuxiu: “…” Why do you act as if it’s your fault!
He looked displeased, but before he could say anything, Yuan Suiyun smoothed things over: "However, Miss Yun wants to find someone, what can be better than your pigeons? You should take us to see the old man quickly."

The old man treated him like his own uncle. He looked into his eyes for a long while before reaching out to wipe away the tears from his eyes: "Okay... I can finally feel at ease."

"I'm sorry for making you worry. It's my fault." Yuan Suiyun took his arm and helped him sit down in the study. The old man pulled him to sit next to him and patted the back of his hand. "Back then, your father wrote to me, saying that you finally recovered from your illness, but you couldn't see anymore. I immediately took a doctor to Guanzhong to see you! It's a pity... Alas, I was too useless and couldn't help you."

"For so many years, the old man has been concerned about my eyes and has been sending medicine to my father. How can you say that it didn't help?" Yuan Suiyun said softly. "Dad and I will be grateful for your efforts for the rest of our lives." The old man said, "I asked your father, and I heard that when he knew about this, the miracle doctor had already gone overseas? Why didn't you keep him and let us old guys thank him properly... But it's also true that a miracle man like him usually doesn't stay in one place for a long time, and it's not your fault."

As he spoke, he could not help but pat Yuan Suiyun's hand, his heart filled with joy and expression: "Let's see who dares to use your eyes to make trouble in the future! This way, your father and I can rest in peace even in the afterlife."

Yuan Suiyun couldn't help but laugh: "Please don't say such things. I am here to celebrate your birthday. You must live as long as the immortal pine trees in the southern mountains to be worthy of my kindness."

"Let's talk later." He turned his head and looked at Yun Chuxiu who was standing at the door with his arms folded, and said to the old man with a smile: "If you want to thank the miracle doctor who saved me, today is the right time - he is right here."

"Oh?" The old man was surprised for a moment, but he immediately stood up from his seat and bowed respectfully to Yun Chuxiu. "I failed to see through your identity. I was negligent just now."

"It's not that I'm being rude." Yun Chuxiu spoke the truth. After all, he didn't know the other party, so it was only natural for him to talk to Yuan Suiyun first. What made him very curious at this moment was that he couldn't see through the heart of the old man in front of him from the moment he entered the door.

Unlike the noisy thoughts in other people's hearts, he stood there, as quiet as a silent statue. A statue of god certainly would not be moved by the secular world - but humans are the most complex and passionate animals in the world, so how could they be stone statues?

He turned a blind eye to the fact that the other party blurted out his gender. After all, a person who could be treated seriously by Yuan Suiyun from the bottom of his heart was obviously not an ordinary person. Therefore, he did not say any more nonsense and directly stated his purpose: "I want to find someone... It would be the best if I can find him. If I can't find him, I hope you can tell me the whereabouts of this demon Taoist so that I can personally avenge my friend."

"Okay." The old man took the portrait without asking any more questions. "If you want, I can also send someone to get the Taoist's head for you. You don't have to do it yourself."

"No, Hu Ju and I have a special relationship. If he really died at the hands of this man, and I can't kill him myself, I would be unworthy of being a man!" Yun Chuxiu said righteously, but he was actually secretly complaining in his heart: If it was really like the lie he made up, and the butler Hu Ju was killed by a charlatan, he would definitely do it himself and send his subordinate to see the King of Hell immediately. Otherwise, if he fell into the hands of his master Xiao Donglou, I'm afraid the end would be worse than death!

"If you can help me accomplish this, no matter what the reward is, as long as I can afford it, you can just tell me." Yun Chuxiu felt that he was a down-to-earth person who clearly marked the price. The old man also smiled and said, "You cured Suiyun's eyes. No matter what you want me to do, I will do it for you! Since it's already a thank you gift, how can I ask for your reward? Tell me, isn't that the truth?"

But he paused, and then continued: "It's just that Master Yun is a very capable person. In my life, I have never seen anyone who can match your medical skills... I have a question that I want to ask you. Ah, fortunately you are a master, not a lady, otherwise, even if I risk my reputation, I probably won't be able to ask it."

He glanced at Yuan Suiyun beside him, who immediately understood and obediently left the study and closed the door for them. So, the old man and Yun Chuxiu were the only ones left in the huge study.

In fact, the question the old man asked was indeed a very difficult one to ask a girl: "Mr. Yun, is there any possibility of being cured for someone who was diagnosed as infertile many years ago?"

Yun Chuxiu: "..."
