Qin He glanced towards the direction of the restaurant entrance, from where she could see Ming Yuzhu sitting on the sofa, still studying the list.
She put down her chopsticks and whispered, "Brother, don't worry, that person's target is just the book. At least until they can successfully infiltrate the Qin family, they shouldn't make a move on me. What I'm worried about now is... your wedding."
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes. "You think those people will take advantage of the opportunity to strike?"
Qin He analyzed in a low voice, "Before, their methods were to completely disrupt the Qin family. Whether it was your car accident or mine, it's clear these people like to make everything look like an accident. But neither of us died. This proves that the group didn't intend to kill us. They just want to find the book amidst the chaos. In fact, they might not even dare to take our lives, because if they can't find Wan Fang Lun in the end, they'll still have to get it from us."
Qin Yun thought for a moment, "Then aren't you afraid they'll tie you up?"
He raised his eyebrows slightly. "Let me tell you, if anything really happens to you, I don't care about the value of Wan Fang Lun or anything else. My sister is more important. I'll hand over the book immediately."
Qin He chuckled lightly. "You'll have to find it first."
Qin Yun scoffed. "Your room is so small, I'll just tear it apart and deliver it to them."
Qin He relented. "It's not time to think about these things yet. The main issue is that Mom wants to hold your engagement banquet at our place. There will be a lot of people then, which will definitely be the most chaotic time."
"Regarding security, Brother, you'd better be in charge personally. Mom doesn't know about this, so the security might just use ordinary personnel and think it's sufficient."
Qin Yun furrowed his brow and thought for a moment. "Understood. I'll handle this."
He and Xu Wanwan had gone through too much hardship to be together.
Qin Yun's expression turned stern. He absolutely would not allow anyone to disrupt his engagement banquet!
After breakfast, Qin He left under her brother's disapproving gaze. She drove her car towards the Gu family's old residence.
She had been going to the Gu family's old residence more often recently, and now she didn't even need GPS.
After driving for over an hour, Qin He arrived at the entrance of the Gu family's old residence.
She had arranged with Grandma Gu to visit her today last night.
Grandma Gu had woken up early. As Qin He drove into the Gu family's old residence garden and stopped in front of the villa, she saw the figure standing at the entrance and her heart suddenly ached, her eyes watering slightly.
In front of the luxurious and ancient Gu family villa, an old woman sat on the high steps, resting her chin on her hands like a child, waiting.
Qin He opened the car door, got out, and hurried over.
"Grandma, why are you sitting on the steps? It's so cold here?"
Qin He looked up at the butler standing not far away. The butler also looked helpless.
"The old lady insisted on sitting here to wait for you. We wanted to get her a chair, but she refused."
Grandma Gu was holding Qin He's hand at this moment, her face full of smiles.
"He'er, my good granddaughter-in-law has come back to see me."
Grandma Gu's slurred speech made Qin He's heart sink.
The butler had worked at the Gu family's old residence for most of his life and was also a bit saddened now.
"The old lady's lucid moments are getting fewer and fewer lately."
Qin He's eyes reddened slightly as she helped Grandma Gu into the villa.
When Grandma Gu had her episodes, she behaved like a three or four-year-old child. She only recognized Qin He and didn't like others to approach her.
Qin He had a hard time coaxing the old lady to eat breakfast.
The two sat in the living room. Grandma Gu mumbled about her, and occasionally recalled some childhood memories of Gu Qichen.
She seemed to be trapped in some kind of memory loop.
After muttering for a while, she became sulky again.
"He'er, don't be angry. Qichen is being disobedient. Shall Grandma help you discipline him?"
Qin He's voice was a little hoarse. "Okay, Grandma."
"He'er, don't separate from him, okay?"
Qin He took a deep breath and looked up at the living room entrance.
Gu Qichen was walking in from outside. He was tall and handsome.
Qin He was momentarily dazed.
"Okay," she replied to Grandma Gu, her gaze fixed on Gu Qichen.
In terms of both hardware and software, Gu Qichen was definitely the best man in Qingcheng.
However, he had tormented her for two years. Qin He sighed softly.
Even though she had lost that memory, the woman who had written down various notes in the notepad on that old phone felt very unfamiliar to her.
And according to her brother, mother, and friends, she had also lived a very miserable life.
When Qin He first woke up, she hated Gu Qichen.
She had always been proud. She never expected to wake up and have to face the fact that she had been a lovesick puppy for two years.
Qin He found it incredible. However, her interactions with Gu Qichen during this time had made her a little confused.
Gu Qichen was indeed excellent in every way, and his current attitude towards her had touched her heart.
Gu Qichen had walked over and sat on the sofa opposite Grandma Gu and Qin He.
Grandma Gu stared at Gu Qichen for a while, then frowned. "Who are you? Why are you in my house?"
Qin He was a little helpless and linked her arm around Grandma Gu's. "Grandma, this is Gu Qichen, your grandson."
"Qichen," Grandma Gu murmured, then instantly seemed to remember something, her eyebrows raising in anger.
She got up and was about to hit him.
"You unruly brat, why do you always bully He'er?"
Grandma Gu didn't use much strength, but her voice was loud.
Qin He chuckled and looked at Gu Qichen.
"It seems that even when Grandma has an episode, she still cares about you." Meaning she cared about beating him.
Gu Qichen caught the teasing in Qin He's words. "She cares about you more. Even when she's ill, she's thinking of standing up for you."
As they spoke, they coaxed Grandma Gu to sit down.
A moment later, Grandma Gu's gaze flickered, and she seemed dazed in place, no longer speaking.
Qin He called the butler.
The butler respectfully said, "After the old lady has an episode, she usually stays in a daze like this for a long time."
Qin He was beside Grandma Gu, and Gu Qichen sat opposite her.
Qin He looked up at him. "Why aren't you at the company today?"
Gu Qichen was looking at some company documents on his phone, his voice faint.
"Because I knew you were coming."
Qin He was slightly taken aback.
Gu Qichen looked up at her. Beneath his proud brow bones, his deep eyes held a thick, ink-like emotion.
Qin He felt a little flustered. She gave a forced laugh and turned to continue watching Grandma Gu.
