Chapter 2507 - 686: Breaking the Seal! Homecoming! Reunion!
Old Master An laughed heartily, feeling quite cherished by his granddaughter’s attention. He immediately called Ye Chenghong and Old Master Gu, notifying them of An Yiqing’s return and urging them to come over as soon as possible.
Upon receiving the news, Ye Chenghong promptly arrived with Yin Xilin and Tiezhu. Teleportation with Breaking Void to Divinity only took a quarter of an hour, and when Ye Chenghong appeared at the An Family Mansion, An Yiqing was stunned, her eyes reddened, and she rushed forward to embrace the elder.
"Master, I’m back..." An Yiqing cried, more aggrieved than she ever had in front of her parents. Ye Chenghong as her master meant something different to her than anyone else. He raised her from babbling to entering Xuandu City, a whole nineteen years, being both father and mother.
Seeing her master, a year and a half of grievances and confusion erupted all at once as An Yiqing cried her heart out.
Ye Chenghong’s eyes reddened as well, patting An Yiqing’s back as if comforting a little girl to sleep when she was young.
"Good child, as long as you’re alive, it’s alright."
An Yiqing lifted her head from Ye Chenghong’s arms, wiped away her tears, "Master, I was going to take a shower before coming to see you. You’re even more eager than me, huh?"
Ye Chenghong rubbed his eyes, laughed heartily, "I’m not eager to see you, I want to see my little disciple’s child."
Saying this, he released An Yiqing and quickly stepped to Old Master An’s side, scooped up Little Bun with eyes full of joy, "Little one, I am your grandmaster. Your mother is my disciple. Come, call me grandmaster."
An Yiqing’s mouth twitched, the kid’s not even one yet, master are you out of your mind?
Watching her master cuddling Little Bun and surrounded by several elder members of the An Family, An Yiqing dried her tears and smiled. At this moment, Gu Yelin came over with a bowl of chicken soup, handing it to her.
"Ah Lin, I’ve lost favor. From now on, only you will care for me." An Yiqing said while drinking the chicken soup, leaning against Gu Yelin, pretending to be aggrieved with a smile.
Gu Yelin laughed, kissing the crown of her head, his voice soft and low, "Only care for you."
That day, upon hearing the news, An Zhihang and An Zhiyan returned, naturally, An Zhihang brought Gu Tingting along. At the same time, Zhang Yuksheng and others took the fastest flight over. Old Master Gu was in seclusion and couldn’t meet his granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson immediately, expressing his regret humorously over the phone through Gu Yulin.
An Yiqing called her friends one by one, informing them of her safe return. Xia Hau and Ruan Xue, far in Country Zi, wanted to come over immediately upon knowing, but were held back by An Yiqing. She told them she’ll visit Country Zi to see them in a few days, as the house is busy and there’s no time to entertain guests now. Xia Hau and Ruan Xue thought it through and agreed, knowing she’s safe and they’ll eventually meet her. The An Family is very excited right now, they didn’t want to add to the chaos.
Meanwhile, Nan Tian from Jinyin City, upon receiving An Yiqing’s call, burst into tears, a stark contrast to his usual toughness. An Yiqing jumped, thinking Nan Tian was possessed. Nan Tian repeatedly scolded her for being heartless, which An Yiqing accepted both laughing and crying. Finally, after she promised to visit Jinyin City soon, Nan Tian agreed to stop.
After making a round of calls, spending nearly three hours with various consolations and explanations, it was already past five in the evening. The lazy golden-orange sunset bathed the mansion’s ground, adding an unexpected vibrant hue to the courtyard scenery.
An Yiqing stepped out of the room, standing alone by the small lake, viewing the rolling hills surrounding the mansion. She slowly closed her eyes, taking a deep breath. The freshness and vigor of the mountains filled her senses, bringing a serene joy.
Living, it’s so good.
...
Soon enough, An Zhifeng and others returned from major shopping, a crowd carrying all sorts of chicken, duck, fish, and seafood, busily moving them into the kitchen. Old Lady An and Kong Shi were directing on the side, all in a joyous bustle.
An Yiqing wanted to help seeing everyone so busy but was chased out by Old Lady An and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Kong Shi duo. Let An Yiqing handle kitchen work? They wouldn’t want the mansion any longer!
Feeling frustrated as she left, An Yiqing touched her nose, dejectedly returning to the hall. In the hall, Old Master An and Ye Chenghong were busy with a dictionary to name Little Bun, while An Zisheng sat on a chair, holding Little Bun, endlessly laughing. Gu Yelin sat nearby, occasionally chiming in.
