"Ah? Little Yuan is back!"
Hearing the commotion at the door, Tang Shiyang happily came to greet him.
Seeing Su Yuan’s head full of silver hair, Tang Shiyang was immediately shocked and said, "Little Yuan, why is your hair all white, what’s going on!"
Su Yuan smiled and said, "It’s nothing, mom, I’ve just made some progress in cultivation."
"Oh... this white hair does look quite shiny." Tang Shiyang carefully looked and then relaxed a bit, "It’s different from my gray hair."
Upon hearing this, Su Yuan’s heart tightened, and sure enough, he saw a few strands of white hair at the ends of Tang Shiyang’s hair.
Although Su Yang and Tang Shiyang lived very comfortably, with some life-extending, spirit-nourishing items sent back by Su Yuan.
But compared to physical nourishment, the mental exhaustion was even more severe.
Su Yuan was away for years, which made Tang Shiyang very worried.
Sometimes she’d wake up in the middle of the night, frightened by nightmares fearing that something had happened to Su Yuan.
Su Yuan gently stroked his mother’s gray hair, fell silent briefly, and couldn’t help but step forward to gently hug her.
After a while, Su Yang behind them laughed and called, "Alright, wife and son, come on in!"
The four of them returned to the table and sat down.
After setting up another place setting, Tang Shiyang asked while serving Su Yuan food, "Why did you suddenly come back? Little Ai said you were busy with something important in the Capitol City."
Su Yuan smiled and said, "Well, I just finished up, so I came back first."
"Was it smooth?" Su Yang couldn’t help but ask.
Su Yang and Tang Shiyang never asked Su Yuan about his exact work, one is because they didn’t really understand it, and the other is because they knew Su Yuan needed his private space.
Su Yuan said, "It went smoothly."
Tang Shiyang happily said, "Good! As long as it went smoothly!"
Suddenly remembering something, Tang Shiyang gave Su Yuan a large portion of shredded potatoes.
"Try the shredded potatoes, how is it?"
"Mmm!..." Ashley immediately became tense and turned to look at Su Yuan, feeling another wave of expectation in her heart.
"It seems a little different from how you used to make it, mom." Su Yuan ate a couple of bites and then nodded slightly, "Hmm... but it’s still quite good."
Tang Shiyang smiled and said, "I didn’t make this, Little Ai made it. You just happened to come back on the first day she tried making it!"
"Oh?" Su Yuan looked at Ashley beside him and nodded in praise, "Really? That’s impressive then!"
"Auntie was always by my side teaching me." Ashley felt her face warm up slightly, quickly maintaining her composure as she served Su Yuan another portion, "You... have more."
Su Yuan smiled and said, "Alright, then I’ll taste it thoroughly~"
...
After the meal and a brief rest, the Su family prepared to go out for a stroll to digest the food.
Su Yuan and Ashley naturally didn’t need to digest, but for Father Su and Mother Su, a walk was definitely beneficial.
"In the past couple of years, our Guangchuan City has developed quickly~" Su Yang remarked with emotion as they walked along the streets near Nanhe Park.
Tang Shiyang proudly said, "According to Director Wang, our Little Yuan played a part in all this!"
Su Yuan and Ashley’s silver hair was already quite eye-catching, and when Tang Shiyang said this, it attracted even more attention from people nearby.
Su Yang hastily said, "Shh! Honey, keep it down, be modest, be modest!"
Tang Shiyang snorted, "What am I afraid of? My son is excellent, so what’s wrong with being a little proud? Right, Little Yuan?"
Every time Wang Haiping came back to Guangchuan for work, he’d visit Father Su and Mother Su.
Therefore, Tang Shiyang and Wang Haiping became quite familiar and learned some things about Su Yuan’s recent activities from him.
Su Yuan didn’t know exactly what Wang Haiping had told the elders, only that he could smile and say, "There’s a bit of truth to it, but Senior Brother Wang, who rose from Guangchuan City as a leader in Qingye, naturally takes care of Guangchuan City."
Tang Shiyang pondered and said, "Oh... that’s true."
After walking for a while, Su Yuan received a new message on his phone.
Checking it, it was indeed from Wang Haiping.
Wang Haiping: "Junior Brother, I’m in Guangchuan City. Where are you?"
Su Yuan looked around, noticing that the crewcut man who was of Shining Star Level and had been across from the Four Seasons Garden earlier hadn’t followed them over.
Su Yuan thought briefly and understood Wang Haiping’s intention.
Since Su Yuan himself was present, there was no need for others to protect Su Yang and Tang Shiyang.
And in Wang Haiping’s view, someone like Su Yuan would definitely dislike being followed secretly.
Being fellow disciples, asking upfront upon arrival actually made them seem closer.
Tang Shiyang turned back and asked, "Little Yuan, something’s up?"
"Hmm, Senior Brother Wang is here."
Tang Shiyang was surprised and said, "Oh? Director Wang came from Qingye again? He was here last week to visit us, bringing some ’Spirit Fruit’ and saying it’s good for health."
