Grandpa, it was not me, really. You can let Muan to help you to look into it, said Shen Ruoyi firmly.

Grandpa Shen looked into his granddaughters eyes. She did not avoid his gaze. So, he nodded.

I know. I will investigate and prove your innocence. Pack up. We shall leave after we say goodbye to the Lins.

Shen Ruoyi nodded. She still looked pitiful. They walked toward Grandpa Lin. As for the Lins, they felt very sorry for Grandpa Shen. It was our fault to let such a thing happen to Qiqi.

Dont say that. It is not a big deal. I just hope that Muan can come to Shen Mansion once in a while.

The two old men chatted for a while. Then, Grandpa Lin saw Grandpa Shen leave the hotel.

When Granpa Shen got into the car and did not see Qiqi by his side, he felt sad.

Shen Ruoyis face was expressionless. She was not worrying about Mu Qiqi but instead was upset that she could not make full use of the incident.

On the other hand, Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi were already back home. After they had confirmed that the substance on Mu Qiqis back was in fact sulfa drug, they felt relieved. Luckily it was discovered early, so it did not turn into a big problem.

Once they were home, Mu Qiqi called Grandpa Shen to tell him she had had her medicine. She would be fine after a good nights sleep.

Grandpa Shen reminded Mu Qiqi to rest early. But Shen Ruoyi said, Grandpa, lets go to the mansion to check on Qiqi. It will be more reassuring once we see her.

Somehow, Grandpa Shen wanted to see his granddaughter as well.

We can stop by the mansion on the way home. It is not far from here.

Grandpa Shen had hung up the call when he decided on that. He did not tell Mu Qiqi they were heading to the mansion.

And more importantly, Mu Qiqi and Sheng Xiao were not in the mansion.

Mu Qiqi made a call to Su Zipei after she talked to Grandpa Shen on the phone. She told Su Zipei not to worry about her. But after twenty minutes or so, Grandpa Shens car stopped right in front of the mansion.

Seeing the lights still on, Shen Ruoyi said, I will go and knock on the door.

Grandpa Shen nodded and followed Shen Ruoyi to the door. Soon, Su Zipei opened the door.

Su Zipei did not know Shen Ruoyi. But she knew Grandpa Shen. Seeing him here without prior notice, her heart started beating fast, but she acted cool.

Miss Su, is Qiqi asleep already? Grandpa Shen asked.

She has been sleeping for a while now. Su Zipei looked into the direction of her room. Then, she said, Dont worry, she had her medicine. Do you want me to call her down?

If it is convenient for her. Shen Ruoyi said politely. Nice to meet you, Aunt. I am Shen Ruoyi, Qiqis cousin.

Su Zipei nodded and told Lu Wenhua to get Qiqi. Wenhua, please tell Qiqi that her grandfather wants to see her.

But Mu Qiqi was not in the mansion. So how were they going to call for her? But Lu Wenhua was quick-witted, so he reacted fast. He went upstairs and knocked on the door. He pretended to talk to Qiqi for a while before going downstairs again.

Then, Lu Wenhua told Grandpa Shen. Old Shen, I think we should just let Qiqi rest. She felt dizzy right now. we shouldnt wake her up anymore.

Grandpa Shen agreed with him and took two steps back. Then I shall come tomorrow.

Okay, see you tomorrow.

Grandpa Shen waved his hand and said, We are just stopping by. Get a good rest.

Su Zipei and Lu Wenhua looked at each other. After seeing them off, they felt relieved. Luckily he believed us. If not, I dont even know how to explain Qiqis whereabouts.

I am not sure how long we can keep this a secret. Lu Wenhua was anxious. The Shens are not easy to be fooled. And Grandpa Shen loves Qiqi so much. If he finds out Qiqis relationship with Sheng Xiao, what will he think?

It cant be helped. It is not like they are blood related. If they are separated because of this ridiculous uncle-niece relationship, Qiqi will be very sad. I believe in Sheng Xiao. He will be prepared for this. Dont worry.

Lu Wenhua was willing to trust Sheng Xiao. But he was still worried about Qiqi as he was her uncle now.

Grandpa Shen did not sense anything wrong. But Shen Ruoyi was different. She had good hearing, but she did not hear Mu Qiqis voice at all. Moreover, Mu Qiqis indoor slippers were on the shelves when they went there. Didnt Mu Qiqi need to change into her slippers when she was home?

She had a strong feeling that Mu Qiqis aunt was hiding something, but she was still unsure. She could not tell Grandpa Shen now because he might think that she was trying to play tricks again. But she felt that something was wrong with Mu Qiqi. And she had to find that out.

When they reached Shen Mansion, it was already eleven oclock.

Third Aunt was waiting for her daughter in the living room. Because she received news from her friends that Grandpa Shen questioned her daughter for Mu Qiqis allergic reaction.

Mu Qiqi stole the limelight and Sheng Xiao got involved in the matter. She did not mind. But why was Grandpa Shen being unfair to her daughter?

Mom, why arent you going to bed yet?

I was waiting for you. In this family, who will worry and care about you apart from me? Third Aunt pulled Shen Ruoyi to her side forcefully. She said angrily, Father, it was Mu Qiqi who was unlucky to get into trouble. Why must you blame Ruoyi?

Mom, you do not know about the real situation at all! Shen Ruoyi explained.

What I know is that your grandfather does not believe in you. All he cares about is Mu Qiqi.

So, are you picking a fight with me? Grandpa Shen turned around and glared at her.

Father, it is you who are being unreasonable. I always worry that this will happen. It is okay if you love Mu Qiqi. But you must be fair. However, you blame Ruoyi for Mu Qiqis misfortune?

If things carry on like this, we will move out of the mansion!

Grandpa Shen harrumphed. He did not bother to entertain Third Aunt and walked away. Third Aunt waited until she was sure that he would not hear them. Did you use it?

Shen Ruoyi widened her eyes. She did not answer her mothers question and headed to her room.

Answer me, daughter!

Shen Ruoyi did not answer. She knew that her mother wanted her to marry into the Lin family. But she was not interested in the Lin family at all.

She was thinking hard about how to get close to Sheng Xiao. And Mu Qiqi was the only shortcut. But today, what had she done to Mu Qiqi?

Should she just tell Mu Qiqi?
