"Master came back. After you finish your breakfast, he wants you to meet him."

At Qi Fei's announcement, the four of them exchanged glances.

"We will do that," Han Sheng Ming replied.

After breakfast, Han Luo wore a white shirt and sky blue skirt. She tied her hair in a bun and then checked herself in front of the mirror.

"Are you done?" Mo Yuan opened the door and asked.

"I'm done. Let's go." Han Luo poured a glass of water and drank in a few gulps.

"Easy there. Drink slowly or you will choke." Mo Yuan gently patted her back. "Are you that nervous?"

"I'm going to meet the culprit. So, yeah, I'm nervous."

At her reply, Mo Yuan chuckled. "We don't know that yet."

"I told you before. I can't find any other explanation. He has to be the one if my youngest uncle isn't the culprit."

Mo Yuan noticed her frustration and nervousness. Without a word, he simply hugged her.

"Do you remember what I said in the morning?"magic

"…" Han Luo knew what he was talking about.

---

After waking up in the morning, she found herself in his embrace. Although she was naked, she had been all warmed up thanks to his body heat.

She circled her arms around his back and rubbed her face against his chest. In return, she got squeezed by him to the point she couldn't breathe.

She was going to complain when she heard him saying, "You need nothing to worry about. We will be here to protect you. Noah will back us up. So, none of us will get manipulated or hurt."

As an answer, she lightly bit his chest.---Recalling the scene, Han Luo nodded.

"I remember. I'm not worried. I won't put my guard on and alert the enemy."

Mo Yuan smiled and ruffled her hair.

"Good girl."

However, later, they realized that they weren't prepared at all for whatever was coming to them.

The eldest Han, Han Luo, and Han Sheng Ming's grandfather, Han Wei Ning, stared at his two grandchildren as they greeted him in his study room.

After a while, he smiled brightly and stood up.

"Welcome my boy! You have grown big and joined the company just as I predicted. I'm truly proud of you Sheng Ming."

As he talked, he marched forward and patted Han Sheng Ming's shoulder.

Never once by mistake, his eyes landed on Han Luo. It was like she wasn't present.

Han Luo: "…"

Han Sheng Ming: "…"

While Han Luo quietly observed the old man, her cousin simply and dumbly stared at his grandfather.

Han Wei Ning dragged his grandson to the couch and sat down together.

"So, tell me, what brings you suddenly to my door?"

"Umm…. I…"

Han Sheng Ming was baffled by his grandfather's behavior. He wanted to ask him why he didn't pay any heed to his cousin but gulped down his words.

Han Wei Ning was too imposing. He was old but he had a tall and huge body. His white hair was brushed back.

When he spoke, it sounded like thunder had struck the room, shaking Han Sheng Ming's heart.

"I'm here to visit you, grandfather. I missed home."

Han Wei Ning beamed when he heard Han Sheng Ming's answer. "That's great. Let's spend some time together. I will show you all the properties that will belong to you one day."

"G-grandfather…" Han Sheng Ming felt uncomfortable.

Han Luo stood there for a while before sitting across from them. She put her right thigh over her left one.

Noticing her arrogant behavior, Han Wei Ning was irritated.

"You girl! What are you doing? Who told you to sit?" he snapped at her.

"Me? I'm sitting because I have the right to do so," Han Luo naturally replied.

"What rubbish!" Han Wei Ning roared.

He slammed his hand on the armrest of the couch. Veins popped on his arm. His face turned red in fury.

"Rubbish?" Han Luo chuckled. "How can that be? How come you don't recognize me, the youngest of my Han Family?"

Han Wei Ning scowled at her. Her pompous action irritated him greatly.

"What do you mean by yours? What right do you have to come here and sit in front of me without my permission? Who do you think you are?"

Han Sheng Ming's heart shook when he heard his grandfather scolding Han Luo. It was the first time he had ever seen someone reprimanding her like that. Not even his mother roared that way.

Han Luo tilted her head, pretending to be confused.

"Do you not know who I am? This is ridiculous. Are you truly the head of my Han Family?"

Her words would make anyone think like she was the head of the family and he had to bow to her.

That single thought vexed him. He was in his house, sitting in his study room and someone barged in while he was talking to his grandson and acting like a boss.

It completely ruined his mood.

"You, get the hell out of my house. I never allowed any troublesome guests in my house!"

Han Sheng Ming became nervous. How could he stay comfortable after hearing that?

He opened his mouth to say something, but Han Luo beat him to it.

She taunted her grandfather by saying, "You never contact us or ask if your second son is doing well or not. You never bother to find out if we are all alive or dead. And now you only care for your grandson, not granddaughter?"

Han Wei Ning was so angry that his face turned purple.

"Hmph! What can a girl do? Can a girl run a company? You are nothing but a mere burden. All you have to do is to get married to a company heir and support the Han Family since we spend our money to raise you!"

Han Luo crossed her arms.

"And? How much money did my Han Family spend on me? How much money did you pay for my studies? How much money did you fork out for my father's hospital bills?"
