The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

"Grandma, we must not tell them about this. Otherwise, given Shi Yang's impulsive personality, he will never agree to us doing this."

"If any accidents happen and delay the overall progress of the incident, the Ying family will be finished."

After a pause, Shi Rong continued.

"Besides, Shi Yang and Ming Xing are already married and engaged. I can't let them know that the Ying family is involved in this matter, and I can't let them risk their lives with me."

When Feng Qingning saw that Shi Rong had made up his mind, his eyes immediately turned red with anxiety.

"But, Rong'er, if this happens, you really won't have anyone around you who can use you... What if something happens to you? Grandmother can't live without you, and the Ying family can't lose you either."

Seeing Feng Qingning couldn't hold back her tears and sobbed uncontrollably at this moment, Shi Rong panicked and hurriedly took out the handkerchief from his pocket and helped her wipe away her tears with heartache.

"Grandma, please don't cry... You have to believe in Rong'er. There's nothing in this world that I can't handle, right? And there's also Miao Man. Tomorrow, she will always be by my side."

"Besides, didn't we hire two helpers specifically for this? You personally called them back from outside and secretly trained them three months ago. Didn't you tell me last time that you thought they were very good?"

Having said that, Shi Rong hugged Feng Qingning, who was still sad, and patted her.

"Grandmother, you know why I'm determined to maintain my innocence even at the risk of my life. Even if I really take Shi Yang and the others with me tomorrow night, it will be meaningless."

"Among the entire family, the only person who currently meets the requirements is Miao Man. With the tacit understanding between her and me, there will definitely be no problem. Don't be sad. The family is still counting on you to take charge of the overall situation."

Feng Qingning nodded with tears in her eyes, and her hands, covered with fine lines, tightly embraced Shi Ying's graceful back.

"Xiao Er, promise grandma that you will be safe and sound."

Shi Rong smiled and nodded vigorously.

"Don't worry, grandma. We've been preparing for this for so long. Nothing will happen."

Shi Rong took great pains to soothe Feng Qingning's grief and made her smile again.

"Didn't you tell Grandmother before that you promised your brother that you would never hide anything from him again, so you wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell him? Why did you change your mind again?"

When Feng Qingning asked Shi Rong tentatively, she was silent for a long time about the answer to this question, but finally, she told the truth.

"Before, my granddaughter did think so. After all, I was more afraid of him being sad than being angry, so I did think about not hiding it from him. Even if he insisted on going with me, I would be able to find a way to protect him."

"But until the day my sister-in-law and Miao Miao came home, I saw the endless joy in their faces when the three of them were together. It was a smile that came from the bottom of their hearts, showing their cherishment and love. I decided not to tell him."

"What if I can't protect him then? Then Miao Miao will be without a father? My granddaughter has been without parents since she was a child. I don't want Miao Miao to become like her aunt."

It turned out to be the case.

Feng Qingning could understand what Shi Rong said. Ying Miaomiao was only three years old this year. If she were asked to bear the risk of losing her father, she would not be able to bear it either.

Seeing that Shi Rong was in a slightly depressed mood, Feng Qingning made a joking remark.

"Oh, grandma knows. Is our Xi'er jealous? Why does she care so much about her brother? If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have let your brother marry and have children. I would have let him stay with you for the rest of his life."

Tsk!

After hearing these words, Shi Rong was speechless.

What the hell is going on? How can someone my grandmother's age be so eloquent?

Shi Rong finally knew who Shi Yang inherited his irresponsible spirit from.

If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked...

"Oh, Grandma... please stop talking nonsense. It would be terrible if others heard this. We are siblings, not lovers."

"Hahahaha!"

Feng Qingning burst into laughter at Shi Rong's shy little appearance.

The little girl even knows when to blush. She has really grown up.

After Shi Rong finished discussing business with Feng Qingning, she opened the study door. As soon as she looked out, she saw Shi Yangchu standing on either side of her, like two door gods, each leaning against the eaves beside the door, staring at her in unison.

Shi Rong was startled, then looked at the two of them with suspicion.

"What are you two doing?"

The two men looked at each other and said it as a matter of course.

"Wait for you to come out for dinner, then go back to your room and sleep."

Shi Rong was speechless again.

"Miao Man will sleep with me tonight, and you two can sleep in Chu Yu's room."

When the two men heard this, they immediately became unhappy.

Shi Yang: "Even if Miao Man sleeps with you, she should sleep in your bed, right? We won't sleep in your bed, so why should we sleep in separate rooms?"

Chu Yu: "Exactly, what are you worried about? Could it be that if we sleep until midnight, we can still take care of you two one by one?"

Shi Rong suddenly turned around, raised his hands and slapped each of them, making them cover their shoulders and scream.

"That's what I say! If you keep talking nonsense, neither of you will be allowed to sleep in my room."

Seeing that the little woman was angry, the two men panicked and quickly caught up with Shi Rong who had already walked far away, trying to coax and persuade her.

Shi Yang: "Okay, okay, okay...Isn't it okay if I just listen to you?"

Chu Yu: "Don't be angry, we were wrong..."

"Pfft~"

Seeing how servile they were, Miao Man couldn't help but get together with Lan Chuan, who was traveling with them, and laugh secretly.

……

"You'll be fighting alongside me again tomorrow night. Are you afraid?"

12 o'clock midnight.

Shi Rong took Miao Man back to the room and mercilessly locked Shi Yang and Chu Zhao outside the door despite their repeated requests.

He picked out a set of his own pajamas for Miao Man to wear, and sat next to her on the sofa stool in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking out the window at the beautiful night scene of fish swimming in the water in the front hall of the Ying family.

Miao Man shook her head without even thinking.

"I'm not afraid. As long as the young master is by my side, I'll do anything. Besides, it's an honor for me to be chosen by the Ying family to participate in such a special operation."

Shi Rong smiled. It seemed that Miao Man's love of adventure and excitement-seeking spirit was no less than his own.

"Miao Man, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"

The woman shook her head again, as if sighing.

"No, the person I care about most in my life is sitting next to me right now. I'm just thankful that I'm strong enough to make her want to take me with her no matter what she does."

Shi Rong felt a warm feeling in his heart, and he raised his hand to pat her shoulders, which were not broad but extremely strong.

"Silly boy, I'm not taking you to do anything good. If you really can't come back, I'll see if you can still say such words."
