“Lead the way.”

Bai Yan looked at the old lady and nodded. Under the guidance of the old lady, she stepped past the threshold.

The Lan family’s courtyard was different from the luxurious Bai Manor. Instead, it was a plain elegance that was like that scene of mountains and rivers, giving off a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

Bai Yan had just taken a few steps when she saw that not far away, Old Madam, who had a head full of white, was clutching her walking stick with the support of another person and rushing toward her.

“Yan’er, are you Yan’er?” Old Madam’s tears started flowing. She only stopped when she arrived before Bai Yan. Using that rough and slightly trembling hand, she gently caressed her cheek. “Child, you have suffered all these years.”

The mere statement ‘you have suffered’ made Bai Yan feel her heart tingle within. She raised her hand to support Old Madam’s trembling body. “Maternal Grandmother, I’m here to see you.”

“It’s good that you’re back. It’s good that you’re back.” Old Madam’s voice was trembling insistently. “Since you have returned, then stay a few days at the Lan family residence first. Old Lady Sun, go and prepare a room for Miss Bai.”

“Yes.” Old Lady Sun respectfully bent her body. “However, Old Madam, I think that Miss Bai might need to stay at our Lan Manor permanently.”

The old madam was stunned. Her expression instantly turned sharp. “What happened?”

Yan’er was the daughter of the Bai family after all. Now that Old Lady Sun said that she needed to live at the Lan family residence permanently, then it meant that something had happened at the Bai family.

“Old Madam, when I had gone to pick up Miss Bai, the Bai family head said that since our Eldest Miss married him to be his wife, then the Lan family are merely outsiders to Miss Bai! If she insists on coming to the Lan family, then he would chase her out of the Bai family!”

The Eldest Miss whom Old Lady Sun was referring to was naturally Lan Yue. Before Lan Yue married off, she used to address her that way, and until now, she was unable to change her way of address.

“Great! That Bai Zhenxiang!” Old Madam Lan was furious. “If it were not for the Lan family back then, would he have the success he has today? Now that his wings have hardened, he says that my Lan family are outsiders? It is fine even if you don’t have this kind of white-eyed wolf of a father!”

After she finished speaking, Old Madam Lan held Bai Yan’s hand once again and very kindly said. “Yan’er, you should just live at my Lan family residence in the future. If the Bai family does not want you, let Maternal Grandmother raise you! As long as Maternal Grandmother has a mouthful to eat, you will definitely not go hungry!”

“Maternal Grandmother, I will stay at the Lan family residence for a few days, but I won’t stay here permanently,” Bai Yan saw that Old Madam Lan was about to say something and immediately interrupted. “Don’t worry, I have a place to stay in Liu Huo Kingdom. If I really need assistance, I will come to the Lan family residence to seek you.”

Old Madam Lan patted Bai Yan’s shoulder and sighed lightly. “Your temper is just the same like your maternal grandfather’s, equally stubborn. Forget it, I will not force you either. If you have spare time, just come over and visit this old lady.”

The Bai Yan of the past had been very lost when it came to these relatives of hers. She only knew that Bai Xiao treated her well. But now, it was only after hearing Old Madam’s words that she did understand. How much had that Bai Yan of the past missed out on?

“I heard that Maternal Grandfather is sick. Is he better now?” Bai Yan thought about Old Master Lan’s problem and asked with a frown.

“He’s still the same.” Old Madam Lan’s eyes dimmed. “Yan’er, I will bring you to see your maternal grandfather. Actually, in all these years, your maternal grandfather has also frequently talked about you, fearful that you were aggrieved outside.”

Old Master Lan had a very stubborn temper and he had even announced that Bai Yan was no longer the granddaughter of the Lan family after Bai Yan had left without a word back then!

However, over the past six years, the Old Master had never once forgotten her. Especially today, after hearing that Bai Yan had returned, he immediately got Old Madam to send people over to pick her up.
