Chu Qingzhi asked, âDo you know what your grandfather is doing?â
Si Yuhcng said very naturally, âDoing business. Since youâve seen my grandfather, you must have been to his shop. Howâs business?â
Chu Qingzhi thought to herself, Is Si Yuheng deliberately acting so innocent?
Or is he really that innocent?
If he did it on purpose, she wanted to say that his acting skills were really good. She could not see any flaws.
Chu Qingzhi said, âDo you want to see your grandfather? I can bring you there.â
Si Yuheng missed his grandfather very much and said anxiously, âYes, can you bring me there immediately?â
Chu Qingzhi nodded. âSure, letâs go.â
Ministry of Justice.
Coincidentally, just as Chu Qingzhi brought Si Yuheng to Ministry of Justice, Tang Jinghong arrived with Si Yingzong.
Tang Jinghong immediately turned around and walked towards Chu Qingzhi. âQingzhi, why are you here?â
Chu Qingzhi looked at Si Yingzong and said, âI brought Si Yuheng over to look for you.â
When Si Yingzong heard the word âSiâ, he immediately turned to look at Si Yuheng. He was excited. Was this his nephew?
âSi Yuheng?â Tang Jinghong looked at Si Yuheng.
Si Yuheng was confused. Why were they all looking at him with such a look?
Did they know him?
Chu Qingzhi explained Si Yuheng to Tang Jinghong.
What a coincidence. Tang Jinghong said, âLetâs go inside and talk.â
However, Si Yuheng did not move. He looked at the words âMinistry of Justiceâ and was very puzzled. âMiss, did we take the wrong path?â
Chu Qingzhi turned around. âWe didnât. Itâs here.â
How could his grandfather be at the Ministry of Justice? She was clearly lying.
Si Yuheng took a step back. âMiss, Iâm not going. You can go by yourself.â
Chu Qingzhi said calmly, âIf you donât come, you might not be able to see your grandfather for the last time.â
Si Yuhengâs heart tightened. âMiss, what do you mean?â
Chu Qingzhi said, âIf you want to see your grandfather, come with us. Donât worry, the government wonât use schemes to trick people into jail. If they really want to arrest you, they will send soldiers to arrest you openly.â
Si Yuheng stood on the spot and thought for a while. In the end, he decided to believe Chu Qingzhi. There was no need for her to lie to him. He was so poor and had no power or influence. âAlright, Iâll go in and take a look.â
Tang Jinghong brought them to Si Shijiangâs cell. âButler Si, Iâve brought Si Yingzong for you.â
Si Shijiang opened his eyes and looked at them. When he saw Si Yingzong, he was extremely excited. âYoung Master Yingzongâ¦â
Tears streamed down his face as he knelt in front of Si Yingzong.
When Si Yuheng saw this scene, he was very puzzled. What was going on? Why did his grandfather kneel down to him? And even call him Young Master?
Si Yingzong looked at the old butler and felt a lump in his throat. Tears welled up in his eyes as he knelt down as well.
He was the one who caused everyone to be in this state. He was to blame.
âButler, Iâm sorry.â
Si Shijiang slowly shook his head, âIn the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. Young Master Yingzong, are you alright?â
Si Yingzong said with difficulty, âIâm fine, but why are youâ¦â
Si Shijiang didnât mention anything about himself. He wiped his tears and waved at Si Yuheng. âYuheng, come here.â
Si Yuheng walked over and knelt at the side. âGrandpa.â
Si Shijiang asked with concern, âWhy are you in the capital?â
âIâm here to see you.â Si Yuheng was worried. âGrandpa, what business did you do? Why did you end up in prison?â
Si Sijiang sighed and said helplessly, âI was in the antique business, but I encountered a batch of fake goods, so I was sued.â
Si Yuheng said agitatedly, âWhat fake goods? Just compensate them with the money. Why did they have to send you to prison?â
Si Shijiang looked at Si Yuheng lovingly. He had long treated this child as his biological grandson. âSomeone died during this incident, so Iâm held responsible.â
Si Yuhengâs eyes turned red. He could not take it anymore. âGrandpa, is there any way to save you? If I canât save you, Iâll sit in prison for you.â
Si Shijiangâs eyes were filled with love. âIâm already old. Iâve lived long enough.
Youâre still young. You still have a long way to go. Live well.â
Si Yuheng was agitated. âGrandpa, I want to save you. I must save you.â
Si Shijiang held Si Yuhengâs hand, his eyes filled with kindness. âYuheng, calm down. Grandpa has something very important to tell you now.â
Si Yuheng shook his head. âGrandpa, if thereâs anything, wait until I save you.â
Si Shijiangâs tone suddenly became stern. âYuheng, donât be willful.â âGrandfatherâ¦â Si Yuheng cried.
Si Shijiangâs heart ached for him, and his expression slowly softened. âYuheng, heâs Si Yingzong, your biological uncle. Pay your respects.â
âYuheng.â Si Yingzong looked at Si Yuheng. He had already guessed it. Si Yuheng resembled a little like his sister-in-law. He could tell at a glance.
Si Yuheng was in no mood for that. He only wanted to save Si Shijiang, but he still obediently bowed to Si Yingzong. âUncle.â
Si Yingzong patted Si Yuhengâs shoulder in relief. He had finally found his eldest brother and sister-in-lawâs son. The Si family would perish without descendants now. âIâm sorry, Yuheng, for finding you so late.â
Si Yuheng shook his head. âUncle, can you think of a way to save Grandfather?â
Si Yingzong already knew what Si Shijiang had done, so there was no possibility of saving him. However, facing Si Yuhengâs expectant gaze, he didnât say it so bluntly. âIâll try to think of a way.â
Si Yuheng thanked him sincerely. âThank you, Uncle.â
When Si Shijiang saw this scene, he was finally relieved. In the future, when he was no longer around, Yuheng would not be alone. âYuheng, you have to listen to your uncle in the future. Donât be willful, understand?â
Si Yuheng was very happy to have another relative. âGrandpa, you will save you so that you live with us too.â
Seeing Si Yuheng like this, Si Shijiang secretly made up his mind. âYuheng, can you help Grandpa buy a few sweet biscuits?â
Si Yuheng quickly agreed. âOkay, okay, okay. Grandpa, Iâll go right away.â
He ran out.
Si Yingzong bowed three times to Si Shijiang. âButler, thank you for protecting the Si familyâs bloodline and raising Yuheng so well.â
Si Shijiang helped Si Yingzong up. He was very reluctant. âYoung Master
Yingzong, Iâll leave Yuheng to you in the future.â
Si Yingzong nodded. âButler, donât worry. Iâll do my best to teach him.â
Si Shijiang pushed Si Yingzong out of the cell and turned his back to him. He waved his hand. âGo. Let me be alone.â
Si Yingzong stood on the spot and looked at Si Shijiangâs slightly hunched back.
Tears flowed down his face and he couldnât move for a long time..
