Listening to Mu Zijin's words, a barely perceptible gloom flashed across Yang Jingcheng's eyes.

He had to admit that Mu Zijin had indeed changed a lot after returning to China.

Gu Qingtian spoke softly beside him, imitating Sui Sui Nian Nian and saying, "Uncle Jingcheng, don't worry, my father will take care of this matter. He sent people to catch the bad guy yesterday."

"Aunt Zijin just needs to recuperate in the hospital."

Yang Jingcheng looked at Gu Qingtian, whose eyes were blinking. He looked very similar to Gu Jingheng, but for a moment, he seemed to see a little shadow of Mu Zijin in Gu Qingtian.

Gu Jingheng's child and Zijin also get along so well...

They look like a family, without any strangeness or barriers at all.

An idea suddenly came to Yang Jingcheng's mind. Maybe He Lin was right. If he just sat there and waited for death without taking the initiative to pursue her, he might never be able to catch up with Mu Zijin.

Hiding the repression in his eyes, Yang Jingcheng suddenly said: "Zijin, do you remember what I asked last time, that I might need you to do me a favor?"

Hearing this, Mu Zijin didn't think much about it and nodded: "Jingcheng, tell me, is there anything you need my help with?"

"I'm back at the Yang family now. My grandfather's eightieth birthday is coming up in a few days, and I'd like to invite you to attend. My grandfather has been ill lately, and he's been seeing many Chinese doctors but to no avail, so I'd like to ask you to help me out when the time comes."

Mu Zijin is good at medicinal food. He learned a lot from his grandmother since he was a child. His prescriptions are different from those of ordinary Chinese medicine practitioners.

Yang Jingcheng didn't dare to directly invite Mu Zijin as his female companion. He knew that this would only scare Zijin away, so he invited her in a tactful way.

Hearing this, Mu Zijin naturally had no reason to refuse. She readily agreed: "Okay, Jingcheng, when the time comes, tell me the specific time of grandpa's birthday, and I will arrive on time."

Yang Jingcheng's lips curled up into a smile: "Okay."

"Then you take a rest first. I'll come to see you in the afternoon with some nutritious meals."

Mu Zijin wanted to tell Yang Jingcheng that he didn't need to be so polite, but seeing that Yang Jingcheng had already stood up and left, the words on the tip of her tongue were stopped.

She turned her head, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable. But when she was abroad, she and Yang Jingcheng had a very good relationship, and they were like family. Why did she have some thoughts about the difference between men and women after returning to City A?

Is it because I have had too much contact with Gu Jingheng after returning to China?

Every time she was with a man, Gu Jingheng would always appear and ask her to keep her distance.

Is she used to being abused?

Mu Zijin shook her head and then looked at the children.

Listening to Gu Qingtian's words, Mu Zijin narrowed his eyes: "Qingtian, has your father found out who that person is?"

Gu Qingtian nodded: "My father has always been very quick in his investigations. Aunt Zijin, you have been seriously injured this time. My father will definitely not let the culprit go."

She secretly clenched her palms. Although she had guessed that Gu Jingheng would intervene, she did not expect that Gu Jingheng would be so efficient.

If Gu Jingheng had already found out who that person was, why would she go to so much trouble to find a hacker to check the surveillance footage at that time and look for clues? It would just be a waste of time.

Mu Zijin paused and said, "Okay, Qingtian, when you have time, please say thank you to your father for me."

Gu Qingtian frowned: "Aunt Zijin, you are now with my dad..."

"Aunt Zijin, if you want to move out of the Gu family, I'd like to move in and take care of you for a while. Suisui isn't feeling well, so I can help with the cleaning and housework. Niannian is about to go film a variety show, so it'll be safer to have a man at home to take care of you."

Gu Qingtian spoke seriously, his eyes looking pitiful, afraid that Mu Zijin would reject him.

Seeing Gu Qingtian raising her hands and rubbing them tightly, Mu Zijin couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, Qingtian, if you want to come and live with Aunt Zijin for a while, Aunt Zijin will naturally not refuse."
