Qin Si Ye gazed silently at the photograph on the tombstone for a long time before saying, "It's getting late, let's head back."
As they left the cemetery, Qin Si Ye personally drove them towards Xing Lan Bay.
His Rolls-Royce, which he had been traveling in earlier, now had only the driver inside, following them silently.
On the way back, everyone wore solemn expressions, and there was hardly any conversation.
It wasn't until dinner that their moods began to lift.
Chen Chen looked up and asked, "Daddy, how is Grandpa's health? When can he be discharged from the hospital? He hates the smell of hospitals. If he can be discharged soon, please arrange for his discharge procedures quickly."
"It's thoughtful of you to still remember this. Grandpa would be very happy to hear you say these things," Qin Si Ye's lips curved slightly upwards. "The doctor said he can be discharged in three to four days."
"That's great," the three children said in unison.
At this point, Shuo Shuo suddenly suggested, "Daddy, Mommy, Grandpa needs a good mood while he's recovering. He likes us so much. If we stay with him every day, he'll surely recover quickly. After he's discharged, why don't we have him move in with us? What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Yin Xi's eyes instantly lit up, and she quickly said, "This is a great idea, I agree."
There was still no conclusion regarding Jiang Jie's matter. If her suspicions were correct, then she absolutely could not let him continue living with that woman. She was worried about where Qin Xiuzhi would go after his discharge. She hadn't expected Shuo Shuo's words to remind her. There were many rooms here, and it was his son's home, so it was the most suitable place for him to stay.
Chen Chen and Yan Yan clapped their hands in approval upon hearing this.
However, Qin Si Ye did not immediately respond. Instead, he replied blandly, "We'll discuss it when he's discharged."
After dinner, Yin Xi settled the children and walked to the third floor. Seeing that the light in the study was on, she knew Qin Si Ye was working and did not disturb him, heading straight to the bedroom.

In a high-end villa in the suburbs of Country M.
Bai Yirong looked tearfully at the man on the sofa who was enveloped in smoke and said, "A Yuan, you must help Auntie figure something out. Yu Shan is still so young; she can't be gone just like this."
The man casually lowered his legs, raised his eyes, and looked at her unhappily. "I disagreed with her returning to the country back then, but she wouldn't listen to my advice and insisted on rushing into danger. Now that something has happened, there's no use coming to me. Qin Si Ye is such a capable man, how could she possibly contend with him?"
"Yes. It's all Yu Shan's fault. She thought that after her plastic surgery and hooking up with Meng Qi, she could defeat them, with the enemy in the open and her in the shadows. She never expected Qin Si Ye and that Yin Xi..." At this point, the tears in Bai Yirong's eyes "whooshed" down her face. "A Yuan, Yu Shan is Auntie's only child now. If she's truly gone, what's the point of me living anymore? Auntie knows you're very capable. You were able to send people to rescue her from the mental hospital before. You can definitely save her this time too."
"The situation this time is different from the last. This time she's in the Public Security Bureau, and she's involved in a murder case. How do you expect me to save her?" The man stood up, somewhat impatiently.
"No." Bai Yirong, thinking he was about to leave, quickly grabbed his clothes and fell to her knees with a "thump." "A Yuan, you can't just stand by and do nothing. Think about how much Auntie doted on you when you were little. Can you really bear to watch Auntie send off another child before herself? Even if Auntie begs you, please help me one last time, okay?"
"Auntie, please don't be like this." A look of difficulty appeared on the man's tense face, and he sighed lightly. "Alright. I'll send someone back to the country tomorrow to understand the specific situation."
