The small room had a tiny ventilation hole, and bright sunlight poured through it, casting a beam of light across the room.

Ji Tingyang noticed it was morning and got up with Ji Zeqiu.

“You’re getting up this late? Do you really think you’re a young master?” The moment they stepped out, they heard Ji Yiyun’s sarcastic voice.

Ji Tingyang remained silent, quietly taking Ji Zeqiu into the restroom to wash up.

They labored to stand on small stools, reaching up to hook the faucet.

Ji Zeqiu’s little towel was soaked and not wrung out, wetting a large part of his clothes during face washing.

“Brother, my clothes are wet.” Ji Zeqiu tugged at his damp clothes, sounding aggrieved.

“Let’s go back to the room and change clothes.” Ji Tingyang took his hand and led him back to the room.

Behind them, Ji Yiyun’s scolding echoed again, “Go back to the room for what? Hurry up and come out to work, or else you both can forget about having lunch!”

Fearing another round of hunger, Ji Zeqiu said anxiously, “Brother, let’s hurry out.”

“Hurry up and change your clothes, then we can go out quickly,” Ji Tingyang said as he took out a T-shirt for him.

Ji Zeqiu hurriedly changed his clothes, then followed Ji Tingyang out.

Ji Yiyun swept them a cold glance, jerking her chin towards the leftover food on the dining table, “Clean up the table.”

Seeing the leftovers, Ji Zeqiu’s stomach, hungry all night, rumbled again. He swallowed saliva and tentatively said to Ji Yiyun, “Auntie, I’m hungry…”

“If you’re hungry, eat the leftover buns and soy milk,” Ji Yiyun said indifferently while filing her nails.

Two half-eaten buns and a bowl of half-drunk soy milk were left on the table.

Ji Zeqiu glanced at them, then his lips quivered in distress.

He didn’t want to eat leftovers.

But his stomach continued to growl uncomfortably.

A flicker of hesitation crossed Ji Zeqiu’s eyes.

Just then, Ji Tingyang spoke up, “Auntie, can we eat something else?”

“Eat it if you want, or go tidy up the table,” Ji Yiyun’s face darkened, her fierce eyes glaring at them again.

Startled, Ji Zeqiu’s heart skipped a beat.

“Brother, let’s just leave it,” Ji Zeqiu whispered, tugging at Ji Tingyang’s clothes cautiously.

Just as he was about to compromise and reach for the bun, urgent knocks rang from the door.

“Tingyang, Zeqiu, Grandpa is here to see you,” Mr. Lin’s deep voice carried a hint of urgency.

Ji Zeqiu’s eyes lit up and, before Ji Yiyun could react, he sprinted to open the door.

Having not seen Mr. Lin for just a day, his complexion had grown much more haggard.

Finally seeing his precious grandson, Mr. Lin crouched down and pulled Ji Zeqiu into his arms, “Did you miss Grandpa?”

Ji Zeqiu’s tightly wound nerves relaxed completely, his eyes brimming with tears, “I missed you, I really missed Grandpa.”

Mr. Lin stroked his back, “Grandpa missed you too.”

After a while, Mr. Lin finally noticed Ji Tingyang standing reservedly on the side and waved him over.

Ji Tingyang slowly approached and was immediately embraced by Mr. Lin.

“Grandpa missed Tingyang too,” Mr. Lin said, patting his head.

Feeling the warm and comforting embrace, the tough Ji Tingyang’s eyes suddenly reddened, and he nuzzled his head against Mr. Lin’s neck.

“The court had already granted me their custody, so why are you here?” Ji Yiyun said with a cold expression.

“Even if you have custody, I still have the right to visit my grandchildren. As long as I’m their grandfather, I can see them.” Mr. Lin maintained a calm demeanor, casting a faint glance at her.

In that indifferent look, Ji Yiyun felt a chill that was not cold, but her heart couldn’t stop trembling.

She clenched her teeth and huffed back into the room, ignoring the three of them.

“Grandpa, I’m so hungry,” Ji Zeqiu whimpered, “My brother, sister, and I haven’t eaten all night.”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Lin’s expression abruptly turned grim.

His eyes filled with rage, he fiercely glanced towards the tightly closed door.

“Come, take your sister, and grandpa will take you out to eat,” Mr. Lin said.

Flaming Lily Restaurant.

Mr. Lin brought the three children into the private room, letting them order whatever they liked.

In less than a few minutes, Ji Zeqiu, almost fainting from hunger, ordered more than ten dishes.

Mr. Lin, while feeding Ji Lanyue formula, watched his grandsons wolf down their food. A wave of sourness surged in his chest, threatening to drown him.

Just as Tang Biquin had said.

He hadn’t protected his daughter well and now he couldn’t even protect his grandchildren.

In their affluent family, it was unimaginable that they had to hunger.

Mr. Lin felt a sting in his eyes and hastily bowed his head, afraid to let them see his tears.

“Grandpa, after we eat, do we have to go back to Aunt’s house?” Ji Tingyang slowed down his eating pace, his expression hesitant.

“We won’t go back, grandpa will take you home to live with grandma, okay?” Mr. Lin said.

Ji Yiyun just wanted that inheritance, let her have it then. What money could be more important than his grandchildren.

“Okay, I want to stay with grandma and grandpa!” Ji Zeqiu, with a greasy face, nodded emphatically.

After eating, Mr. Lin took the three back to the Lin Family home.

As soon as they entered, they saw Tang Biquin sitting in a wheelchair with a cloud of worry on her face.

Upon hearing the noise, Tang Biquin turned around, and her eyes instantly brightened upon seeing them, “You’re back?!”

“Grandma!” Ji Tingyang and Ji Zeqiu rushed towards Tang Biquin.

“Just one day apart, and you’ve both lost weight,” Tang Biquin said, her hands tenderly touching their cheeks.

“Grandma, are you sick? Why are you in a wheelchair?” Ji Tingyang noticed the wheelchair beneath her, his small face filled with worry.

Just one day apart, and grandma was in a wheelchair.

Ji Zeqiu also looked up.

Tang Biquin’s expression stiffened for a moment, “Grandma is fine, don’t worry.”

Mr. Lin looked at her deeply and sighed.

The day she was taken away by Ji Yiyun, Tang Biquin had been distraught, distracted when going downstairs, and had missed a step and fallen down the stairs.

She had injured her bones, leaving her legs in pain and now incapable of walking without a wheelchair.

She was prescribed some medications and advised to rest at home, with no certainty when her legs would heal.

The next morning, Tang Biquin was even more lethargic and depressed.

Mr. Lin, worried for her and the grandchildren, found Ji Yiyun’s address immediately and went to bring the grandchildren back.
