The man stopped talking and walked quickly towards Ji Mo's house. When they reached the gate, the two men straightened their clothes, adjusted their expressions, and smiled, like real family elders coming to visit their children.

The man knocked on the door. Lin Miaomiao, who had been waiting for a long time, pushed open the door and welcomed the two in. However, Ji Mo was not there. Ji Qingshui felt a little dissatisfied and cursed in his heart, "This little beast didn't even come to greet me. I'll see if I can kill him after I take over the family property."

The vicious idea had already been planted in Ji Qingshui's heart.

She still controlled her expression and spoke gently, "What about Ji Mo? How is he? Is he feeling better?"

Lin Miaomiao lowered her head and replied, "Miss Qingshui, the young master is feeling much better now. He just woke up today and is waiting for you two in his room."

"Oh? Awake?" Ji Qingshui was a little confused, but she couldn't show it. She breathed a sigh of relief, like a loving elder: "Okay, that's good. Take us to see him."

"Yes." Lin Miaomiao bowed and led the way.

Ji Qingshui's eyes were full of hostility, and she turned her head to meet her husband's eyes.

"That's impossible! How could he be healed so quickly? Didn't they say it would take at least a week? If he wakes up, it will be very troublesome to adopt him into our family."

"I had hoped that before Ji Mo woke up and the eldest sister and third sister realized what was happening, I would adopt Ji Mo as my own, take over the family property, and then find an opportunity to kill him in battle."

"I didn't expect that this guy would wake up so soon." Ji Qingshui gritted his teeth.

But there was nothing they could do, and soon they were led by Lin Miaomiao to the main hall. Ji Mo, who had recovered, was sitting on a chair and looking out the door.

Seeing the two of them coming, Ji Mo hurriedly stood up and greeted them with a smile.

"Second aunt, second uncle, you are here, please sit down, please sit down!"

The two people who were invited to the seats of honor had smiles on their faces and looked kind. Ji Qingshui was the first to speak: "Xiaomo, how are you? You fell off the cliff a few days ago and scared us. If your second uncle hadn't found you in time, you might have died."

Ji Mo smiled and responded: "Thanks to the care of my second aunt and second uncle, I am much better now. Look, I can even get out of bed!"

Ji Mo stood up, jumped a few times, handed over the prepared tea, and looked at them with a smile.

Ji Qingshui's vanity was greatly satisfied. "It's good, it's good."

Then a long silence began. Ji Mo was not in a hurry to break the status quo. Instead, he wanted to see what the two people's purpose was in coming today and gather some information.

The long silence made Ji Qingshui a little anxious. She made more small movements, as if urging Qi Wa. All these movements were seen by Ji Mo.

Qi Pa also seemed to feel annoyed. He controlled his expression and said kindly, "Xiao Mo, I came here today because your second aunt and I have something to discuss with you."

Ji Mo smiled and nodded, listening carefully: "You say."

Qi Pa cleared his throat and began, "Xiao Mo, your second uncle and your second aunt also helped you diaper when you were a child. We are all family. Last year, your parents unfortunately passed away. We couldn't bear it at the time, but we didn't know how to persuade you. Later, we wanted to take you home, but you vehemently refused. Everyone thought that you might be reluctant to leave your parents and this family, but these past few days you unexpectedly fell off a cliff and were seriously injured. Your second aunt and I really can't bear to see this, so we discussed it and want to take you home. Your second aunt and I don't have a son, so we adopted you and raised you as our own son."

Ji Mo's eyes turned red, as if she was moved by his words. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said in a hazy voice, "Thank you, Second Aunt and Second Uncle, for your kindness. But I really can't bear to leave this family and my parents. Let's not talk about adoption anymore."

Qi Pa waved his hands and said with some heartache: "Oh, oh, we said this because we couldn't bear to watch it anymore."

Suddenly, he changed the subject: "Xiaomo, there are only two of you in your family, and the place is quite remote. Why don't you move to my place so that we can take care of you? Don't refuse the good intentions of me and your second aunt. Your sister is about the same age as you, so it would be good for you to have someone to talk to."

Ji Mo wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with a sob, "This...this is too disturbing to my second uncle."

Ji Qingshui stood up and walked over, holding Ji Mo in her arms, gently stroking his head with her palm, like a real mother, and said kindly: "It's not a big deal, we are all family, so let's just leave it at that. I'll ask the servants to help you pack your luggage later, okay?"

Ji Mo choked back a sob and nodded, but inwardly he sneered, "You're pretending quite well. If it weren't for the disgust that's almost overflowing in your eyes, I would have believed it. I just happened to be looking into the cause of my parents' death, and I was also thinking about how to get to you. It's like a pillow being given to you when you're about to fall asleep. Whatever you think will come true."

After achieving their goal, the two became delighted and did not even have time to drink tea, fearing that Ji Mo would regret it. They hurriedly got up, comforted Ji Mo, and left in a hurry to go back and gather the servants.

Lin Miaomiao, who was cleaning outside the main hall, had red and swollen eyes. She walked out of the house and timidly walked to Ji Mo's side. She wanted to speak but didn't dare. She just stood beside Ji Mo stupidly.

Ji Mo asked gently, "What's wrong?"

Lin Miaomiao's eyes were red, and she choked up a little as she asked, "Young Master, are you really going to Miss Qingshui's house?"

Ji Mo nodded, "Yes, it's all settled."

Lin Miaomiao suddenly couldn't control her tears, "You...you...are gone, what...can I do?"

Lin Miaomiao, who had been here for many years, was caught off guard by the sudden decision. She felt extremely confused about the future and finally couldn't help crying.

Ji Mo walked up to her, stroked her hair, and said doubtfully, "What else can we do? Come with me."

"Ah?" Lin Miaomiao was somewhat delighted by the news, but after the joy, she felt even more sad: "Then...what about this yard?"

Lin Miaomiao, who grew up here, has already developed deep feelings for this place, as it carries too many memories for her.

Ji Mo thought about it, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he had already made plans, "Let others take care of this place. We won't stay at Second Aunt's house for long, so we can come back later."

Lin Miaomiao nodded and said softly, "Okay, wipe the tears from the corners of your eyes, and with red and swollen eyes, run to Ji Mo's room and clean up."

After the heavy rain lasted for a while, it disappeared. The sun, which was covered by dark clouds, escaped after many hardships, emitting scorching light. The sky was lit up with colorful lights, and a rainbow emerged after the heavy rain, so beautiful.

As dusk approached, Ji Mo had already arrived at Ji Qingshui's home and was arranged to sit next to Ji Ruoli.
