Jun Moqing set Susu on his lap and, looking into the little one’s pitch-black eyes full of confusion, he spoke gently, "Susu, your mother doesn’t have any sisters."

The confusion in Susu’s eyes deepened upon hearing this. She thought for a moment and then continued, "Could it be that Grandpa lost Mommy’s sister, and that’s why she doesn’t have any sisters?"

Jun Moqing chuckled to himself, finding the thoughts in a child’s mind to be really interesting, just like Jinyan was when she was little, always asking all sorts of strange questions.

"Why would you think that, Susu? How could Grandpa lose his own daughter? Your mother is the only daughter Grandpa has, okay?"

Susu nodded, somewhat understanding and somewhat not, "Then why does Mommy look like someone else? Just like Gugu and me."

Now it was Jun Moqing who was confused, "Susu, who have you seen that looks like your mother?"

"I don’t know her; I thought she was Mommy, but she doesn’t kiss me or call me baby." Once Susu knew it wasn’t her mother, there was no more grievance in her voice.

Jun Moqing had yet to meet a woman who resembled Jinyan so closely, aside from Jinyan’s mother, and he couldn’t help feeling a bit excited.

"Where did you see her?"

"On the street, where they sell fruit." Susu loved fruits, so she remembered very clearly.

Although Jinyan hadn’t specified which street, Jun Moqing guessed it was Champine Street, the busiest and most bustling street in the Capital.

Taotao had just finished her morning lessons and couldn’t wait to put down her pen, running out of the Study Room. As soon as she reached the door, she was scooped up by Xiao Jinyu.

"Taotao, why are you running so fast?"

Seeing that it was Uncle Wang, Taotao grinned and said, "Uncle Wang, I’m going to play with Grandpa."

Xiao Jinyu’s eyes twinkled as he asked with a smile, "Taotao, do you know how amazing your Grandpa is?"

Taotao shook her head, "I don’t know."

Xiao Jinyu spoke with a mysterious air, "Your Grandpa is the National Master, his Kung fu is super amazing, even more so than your father, and not only that, but Grandpa can also divine the future, and he’s really good at it."

Taotao’s eyes widened in fascination; she had heard plenty from Xiao Jinyu about how amazing her father was, with his lightness skills, strategies, and intellect...

"Can he fly?"

"Of course, he can fly." Xiao Jinyu pointed from the palace wall in front of them to the wall opposite and said, "Your father can fly from here to there, but your Grandpa..." He pointed from the palace wall to the Pavilion opposite’s opposite’s opposite and continued, "He can fly from here to there. "

Susu was very clever and immediately understood from Xiao Jinyu’s gestures that her Grandpa was indeed much more amazing than her father.

"Grandpa is so impressive."

Xiao Jinyu wore a smile full of encouragement as he coaxed gently, "Wouldn’t you like to become as awesome as your Grandpa?"

Taotao nodded vigorously, "Yes."

Discovering that Taotao was quite eager and a child who loved to learn, Xiao Jinyu said, "Then you should go let Grandpa teach you martial arts, and then you can become as awesome as him."

Then he leaned in close to Taotao’s ear and said, "While you’re at it, learn how to divine as well; that way besides Grandpa, you’ll be the most amazing."

Taotao looked a bit hesitant, "Will Grandpa teach me?"

Xiao Jinyu spoke with absolute certainty, "Of course, he will. You are Grandpa’s precious granddaughter, and as the saying goes, ’The best is kept within the family.’ Such impressive martial arts, he’d definitely want to teach you."

Taotao might have been young, but her aspirations were high. Since she could be as awesome as Grandpa, she was intent on striving to be just as impressive so that she could protect Mommy and her little sister.

"I’ll go find Grandpa and have him teach me," Taotao decided.

Xiao Jinyu put Taotao down, smiling and saying, "Off you go."

"Goodbye, Uncle Wang," Taotao waved and ran toward Hehuan Hall.

Xiao Jinyu watched as Taotao ran off, so eager, and chuckled to himself. With such an amazing Grandpa, it would be a pity not to learn from him.

When Xiao Jinyan returned, he saw Xiao Jinyu standing at the doorway, laughing to himself, "What’s so funny?"

Xiao Jinyu smiled and said, "Crown Prince Brother, I’ve sent Taotao to learn from the National Master. With such good genes and such an amazing Grandpa, it would be such a waste not to learn."

Xiao Jinyan also agreed with Xiao Jinyu’s idea. Naturally, it’s best to learn, and having high-level Kung fu could protect oneself and those one wished to protect.

"Taotao isn’t quite three years old yet; it’s a bit early to start martial arts training."

Xiao Jinyu replied, "She’s not far off three years old; let’s just agree, and when she is three, she can start learning."
