Shangguan Longyi finished speaking, her eyes occasionally glancing at Ye Hao's handsome face. For some reason, she felt her heart suddenly race...

"Take on what responsibility, my ass," Murong Xue scoffed.

"Xue'Er..." Shangguan Longyi called Murong Xue helplessly.

"Alright! I'll stop talking about him, okay? Long Yi, do you have a thing for him? Why does it seem like your face is all red?" Murong Xue asked with an interested look as she noticed Shangguan Longyi's flushed face.

"What nonsense are you saying!" Shangguan Longyi felt her face turn completely red after being questioned by Murong Xue.

"I just knew it, hmph! Damn man, with a face that just lures women in," Murong Xue said with a heavy snort.

Ye Hao was chatting with Shangguan Dapao, and upon hearing Murong Xue's snort, he turned his gaze away. Conversations with this woman were exhausting; whatever she believed to be right was right, and even if something was right, if she believed it was wrong, she wouldn't admit it.

Chen Hui was preparing a few dishes in the kitchen, and at this moment, Shangguan Xiaopao also returned.

Upon seeing Xiaopao come back, Ye Hao quickly approached to greet him, "Uncle Xiaopao."

"Why didn't you say earlier that you were coming, kid? I would have come home sooner!" Shangguan Xiaopao expressed a bit of excitement upon seeing Ye Hao.

Honestly, Murong Lan had been hard to deal with recently, always breaking plates or bowls.

"I just got here not too long ago, Uncle Xiaopao. Sit down, let's talk," Ye Hao invited Shangguan Xiaopao to take the main seat he had been occupying.

Seeing this, Shangguan Xiaopao looked at Shangguan Dapao, who gave him a glare, so he had to sit on a side chair.

Ye Hao helplessly took the main seat again.

"Dapao Grandpa, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Ye Hao felt like he was overstepping, feeling particularly impolite to Shangguan Xiaopao.

"What's the issue? We're all family here; what seat doesn't look the same?" Shangguan Dapao snorted.

Shangguan Xiaopao nodded in agreement and said, "Exactly! Hao, just consider this your home when you're here, don't worry about those things. Has Hui got the dishes ready? Let's drink while we wait!"

Shangguan Dapao nodded and then seated himself with Ye Hao.

Shangguan Xiaopao didn't feel embarrassed at all for sitting in the back, believing that those with abilities should be treated as such.

After the meal and drinks, Shangguan Dapao, with a touch of intoxication, said, "Ah Hao, grandpa is old now, unlike you young folks. I can't imagine where the family's children will end up after we're gone."

Ye Hao comforted Shangguan Dapao, "Grandpa, you'll live to be a hundred, by then the Shangguan Clan will have many branches, and the children will create their blessings. You don't need to worry about so much."

"I hope so too! I really envy the elder brother!" Shangguan Dapao said without implying he wanted Ye Hao to make him young again. Although he didn't know how Ye Hao did it, it must have come at a great cost.

He simply envied Ye Batian and never thought of having Ye Hao make him young as well.

"Don't need to be envious. I'm here today to fulfill the years of regrets for Grandpa Dapao and Grandma Lan," Ye Hao said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xiaopao excitedly looked at Ye Hao and asked, "Hao, do you mean my father's health can also..."

"Xiaopao, what did I teach you about being a person? One shouldn't be overly greedy. Hao turning your mother younger is a tremendous blessing already; how can you be so greedy? Careful or I'll break your damn leg," Shangguan Dapao burped and huffed.

Murong Xue, Shangguan Longyi, and others looked at Shangguan Dapao helplessly, thinking that though others were kind to him, he preferred them not to be too kind.

But that was just Shangguan Dapao's character, one many people loved deeply.

"Dad..." Shangguan Xiaopao called helplessly.

Ye Hao waved his hand to stop them from talking, and gradually, Shangguan Dapao fell asleep.

At this point, Ye Hao said, "Long Yi, go to the trunk and bring that Golden-winged Dolphin over."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Longyi quickly walked out to retrieve the Golden-winged Dolphin and handed it to Ye Hao.

With the Golden-winged Dolphin in hand, Ye Hao smiled at Shangguan Xiaopao and asked, "Uncle Xiaopao, it's ten o'clock now. Shouldn't there be anyone visiting at this time?"

"No one, I'll have my second brother stand guard at the gate," Shangguan Xiaopao responded, knowing Ye Hao wanted to help his father, and said excitedly and nervously.

"Okay!" Ye Hao nodded. As a committee member of the military, Shangguan Xiaopao might be bothered by visitors at night. If they saw the miraculous things Ye Hao was doing, who knows how far that news could spread.

Shangguan Xiaopao went to find Shangguan Erpao, who was initially puzzled but, upon hearing from his big brother Xiaopao that Ye Hao wanted to make his father younger, excitedly jumped out of bed to guard the entrance of the Shangguan Clan courtyard.

Once Shangguan Xiaopao finished everything, he hurried back to the yard and asked Ye Hao, "Ah Hao, it's done. Do you need any help now?"

"There's nothing required, just don't disturb me," Ye Hao replied.

"Tsk! So mysterious, he's just acting like a charlatan," Murong Xue commented disdainfully, though her gaze remained on Ye Hao, curious to see what he intended to do.

Ye Hao had reached a point of complete disregard for this woman, unable to communicate with her at all. She seemed inherently biased against others, always critical and mocking of those she didn't like.

The only way Ye Hao could deal with it was to make Shangguan Dapao younger, otherwise, this woman would mock Ye Hao every time they met.

Ye Hao picked up the Golden-winged Dolphin and apologetically remarked, "Sorry, but my family really needs your Spiritual Qi. I promise your companions are thriving in the Lingding Ocean."

"Waahh," the Golden-winged Dolphin cried.

It showed willingness to allow Ye Hao to extract its Spiritual Qi, but it hoped not to be completely drained, as it wanted to continue to live and roam freely with its companions in this world.

Ye Hao nodded in agreement.

Murong Xue looked at Ye Hao's mysterious demeanor and snorted disdainfully, "Uncle Xiaopao, he's just spewing nonsense. How can you trust such a charlatan?"

Murong Xue's calling Xiaopao "Uncle" was informal since by their actual family ranking, he would be considered a cousin uncle. In the Shangguan family, she was more casual and didn't bother with formal titles.

"Don't talk, trust him," Shangguan Xiaopao glared at Murong Xue.

Murong Xue was about to continue her mockery, but Ye Hao had already begun infusing Shangguan Dapao's cells with Inner Breath.

At first, Shangguan Dapao's wrinkles were distinctly visible, but once the Inner Breath penetrated his body, there was a visible transformation in his wrinkles, suggesting a trend toward tighter skin.

Murong Xue's voice of mockery halted abruptly... (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets on Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com for reading.)
