At the same time.

Yun Moting walked into his room.

"Tingting, aren't you going to introduce me to..." Yun Shuying was just about to sit on the sofa when she saw Yun Moting's dark, stormy expression. She was so startled that she bounced right back up. "No need for introductions... I'll just look around myself..."

"Speak if you have something to say." A coldness and impatience inconsistent with his age appeared on Yun Moting's face.

"Tingting..." Yun Shuying now wished she could just run out the door.

She must have been out of her mind back then to come up with such a terrible idea, having Xu Tian impersonate the Little Ancestor's father.

If time could turn back, she would never use such a method that hurt the enemy by a thousand and herself by eight hundred.

"Whatever I'm about to tell you, please don't get angry after you hear it..."

She carefully observed Yun Moting's expression and continued.

"It's just that I made a mistake before... of course, I definitely didn't do it on purpose, there was just a small error in the middle..."

"I'll give you one more minute." Yun Moting raised his hand to look at the children's watch on his wrist; it was a gift from his mother.

"Uh..." Cold sweat broke out on Yun Shuying's forehead, and she no longer had her usual elegant and poised demeanor. "It's just that your current dad isn't your real dad..."

Yun Shuying clearly felt that after she said this, Yun Moting was instantly enveloped in a chilling coldness, and his large, grape-like eyes were filled with gloom.

"Aunt, what did you say?"

"I... well..." Yun Shuying forced a smile. "I accidentally got your father's identity wrong."

"Really?" Yun Moting's face still held no expression.

But Yun Shuying could still read some key information from his expression.

For example: this really wasn't going to be easy to clean up this time.

"Alright, I'll confess..." Yun Shuying held onto the hope that confession would lead to leniency and admitted to Yun Moting, "I was forced into it too. At the time, you insisted on coming to Huaxia. If something happened, how would I answer to your grandparents?"

"So, for the sake of your safety, I found someone to temporarily impersonate your father and let him help look after you during this time..."

Seeing Yun Moting's face darken at a speed visible to the naked eye, Yun Shuying hurriedly added.

"But now your real father has been found. There will definitely be no accidents this time. He is your genuine father, without a drop of water in it.

We were very cautious this time; we even went to do a genetic test. Once we had the results, we came over immediately to take you home!"

Yun Shuying explained the cause and effect of the matter in one breath, then resigned herself to fate, waiting for the Little Ancestor's judgment.

But Yun Moting's reaction was calmer than she had imagined.

"Um... Tingting, are you okay?" Seeing Yun Moting not speaking, Yun Shuying felt even more anxious and uneasy. "If you're sad, then..."

"Does my dad know about this?" Yun Moting suddenly spoke.

"I'm not sure about that either. I haven't met him yet. In any case, we have to wait until we return..."

"I'm not asking about your younger brother, but about my dad," Yun Moting emphasized.

Yun Shuying was stunned. Was there any difference between the two?

However, her reaction was quite fast, and it didn't take long for her to realize that the "dad" in the Little Ancestor's mouth referred to Xu Tian.

"Yes, he already knows. I told him my younger brother was found and that I'm here to take you back."

"Then what was his reaction?" A glimmer of hope flashed in Yun Moting's eyes.

"No reaction at all. He just told me to come and tell you about this myself." Knowing she was in the wrong, Yun Shuying persuaded him with kind words, "Little Ancestor, I know this was my fault, but I had no choice at the time. Besides, you've been living happily in Jiangcheng during this time, haven't you? Now that your biological father has been found, maybe you'll soon know the whereabouts of your mother. Don't hold it against me this time, okay?"

Yun Moting looked at Yun Shuying, whose face was full of nervousness, and silently complained.

"Do you really think you can fool me?"

"Huh?" Yun Shuying was a bit dazed.

"Forget it, you wouldn't understand anyway." Yun Moting hadn't held out hope in the first place, nor had he believed Yun Shuying's words.

The reason he had accepted Xu Tian and Tang Bingyan so quickly before was because he truly liked them and hoped they were his biological parents.

"Little Ancestor, are you coming back with me or not? Say something." Yun Shuying felt even worse than being sliced to death. If Yun Moting really didn't go back, or even ran away from home again, she would definitely be hunted down across the world by her mother.

"It's fine if you want me to go with you, but you have to promise me one thing," Yun Moting said expressionlessly.

"Fine, as long as you're willing to go, don't say one thing—even if it's ten or a hundred, I'll promise," Yun Shuying let out a long breath.

Great, she finally didn't have to be hunted down.

"I want Mom and Dad to come with me too."

"Cough, cough, cough..." Yun Shuying picked up the juice on the coffee table and had just opened it to take a sip when she was almost choked to death by Yun Moting's words. "Cough... you... what did you say?"

"I want to live with Mom and Dad," Yun Moting emphasized again.

Even if she promised this condition, she couldn't fulfill it.

Other conditions could be discussed, but this condition was simply not something she could decide within her capabilities.

"My little young master, Xu Tian is not your real dad; I found someone to impersonate him, so you can't ask him to go home with you."

Yun Moting listened coldly and said, "I'll give you half an hour."

Yun Shuying:...

Even if you gave me a year, it's impossible, okay!

Yun Moting curled his lips slightly: "Aunt, you should know me."

"I'll go ask for you right now!" Yun Shuying immediately got up and ran downstairs.

In the living room.

Seeing that Tang Bingyan's expression wasn't good, Xu Tian wanted to find a topic to divert her attention.

"Wife, do you remember Wuji Dao that I mentioned to you before?"

"What about it?" Tang Bingyan's eyes flickered, but she quickly returned to calm.

"Mo Mo's home is on Wuji Dao," Xu Tian explained.

Upon hearing this, a chill instantly appeared in Tang Bingyan's eyes, but she quickly turned her head to avoid Xu Tian's gaze.

When she looked at Xu Tian again, her black eyes, like thousand-year frost and snow, became calm once more.

"Really?"

"Mo Mo's aunt told me; it can't be wrong," Xu Tian sighed softly. "I originally planned to go see him with you when there was a chance in the future, but now it seems there probably won't be any chance."

"Wuji Dao is a place that outsiders cannot enter without a special visa issued by them. Perhaps, wife, do you have any way—non-standard routes would work too."

With the Tang family's connections, maybe there really was some way to land on Wuji Dao.
