Bai Shu Jin knew about the news after his secretary told him about that. The pictures being taken in the post were quite good. His fingers instinctively downloaded the pictures and saved them in one folder. The folder's name was YQ. This folder contained all of Yu Qi's pictures. He started collecting the pictures when they were still university students. Every picture of Yu Qi had been posted on the internet, he had it. If the picture had Long Hui as well, he would crop Long Hui out of the picture. This time, the news on the internet was about they were having dinner. He was quite happy with that. So, when the secretary asked him if they needed to do anything about this, he told his secretary to let it be. The secretary was stunned for a moment. Then, she nodded. He heard about the rumour that Bai Shu Jin had a crush on Yu Qi, but the girl rejected his confession in front of everyone who witnessed the public confession. The secretary bowed down and left the office.
Bai Shu Jin made a call to the restaurant's owner. He made a request from the owner. The owner was one of Bai Shu Jin's friends. So, when Bai Shu Jin made that request, he was quite surprised but he agreed to do a favour for Bai Shu Jin. Bai Shu Jin smiled. He wondered what she would do after that. Would she be willing to come to him to beg for his help? He would be waiting. On Grandpa Long's side, he arrived at the military compound as well to train the new recruits. Before he arrived at the training ground, he saw a high-ranking military officer. The high ranking military officer saluted him.
"Sir." The high ranking military officer was calling for Grandpa Long.
"Hmm..." Grandpa Long saluted back and was about to walk away when the high ranking military officer suddenly asked him to wait.
"What is it?" Grandpa Long raised his eyebrow.
"Sir, you probably did not know about the rumour." The high ranking military officer hesitated to speak.
"Be decisive and tell me what is going on." Grandpa Long said.
"Yes, Sir... Here, it is better if you read it yourself." The high ranking military officer took out his phone and let Grandpa Long read the news. "Sir, I think you should reconsider the marriage between your grandson, Grandpa Long, and a woman like that. Your grandson deserves a much better woman compared to a woman like this. If you don't mind, I will introduce my daughter to your grandson." The high ranking military officer said.

The moment Grandpa Long read the news, his anger was boiling up. The high ranking military officer knew that Grandpa Long was very angry.
"How outrageous." Grandpa Long shouted.
"Sir, I think you should reconsider the marriage between your grandson, Grandpa Long, and a woman like that. Your grandson deserves a much better woman compared to a woman like this. If you don't mind, I will introduce my daughter to your grandson." The high ranking military officer said.
He seemed oblivious to what Grandpa Long was getting angry at. He thought that Grandpa Long was angry at Yu Qi who dared to cheat on his grandson with another man. He even dared to want to introduce his daughter to Long Hui.
"What kind of ridiculous thought do you have? My granddaughter in law is not someone like that." Grandpa Long said.
The high ranking military did not expect that Grandpa Long would protect Yu Qi. He tried to reason with Grandpa Long.
"Sir, you can not let a woman like that ruin your family's good name." The high ranking military officer stated.
"How dare you insult my granddaughter in law this?" Grandpa Long glared sharply at the high ranking military officer. The high ranking military officer who faced the glare felt his legs shaking. "I know my granddaughter in law would never do something like this because I was with her having dinner at that restaurant last night. Just two of us ate dinner at that restaurant." Grandpa Long said. Coincidentally, this conversation had been heard by the military officers who were walking away from that area. They also knew about the news. They did not expect Grandpa Long to be at the same restaurant. He even claimed that she was with him. Just the two of them. Not another man around.
Grandpa Long took out his phone and tried calling Yu Qi. No answer. He tried once again. Still no answer. He did not give up and tried to contact her again. This time, the call was answered.
"Yu Qi, are you alright?" Grandpa Long asked.
"Grandpa... You found out about that news?" Yu Qi guessed.
"Yes. How are you?" Grandpa Long asked in concern.
"I am okay. You don't have to worry about that." Yu Qi assured Grandpa Long.
"Do you want me to come out and clarify the truth?" Grandpa Long offered his help.
"No need for that, Grandpa. Some people might not even believe it. They probably think that Grandpa just wants to cover for me. It's okay. Let me handle this. I will deal with them. So, Grandpa, you just should relax and let me handle everything." Yu Qi explained.
"I see... You already have the plan. Fine... Fine... I will lean in and watch the show." Grandpa Long smiled.
Hearing Yu Qi's voice, Grandpa Long knew that the girl had everything planned in her hand. So, he should not be worried about that.
"My granddaughter in law is innocent. And there is no way that I will accept another granddaughter in law. My current granddaughter in law is enough for me and my grandson. There is no need to offer her for my grandson." Grandpa Long stated.
