In the hall of the Old Age Home, the atmosphere has turned into something like a tiger and goat situation.

The old men were smiling awkwardly as Grandma Xue looked at them with gazing eyes.

Meanwhile, the old ladies were giggling among themselves finding the men in such a situation.

"Miss Xue, we were just saying Qiqi's father to take care of Little Qiqi and her mother now that he is here."

"And considering that he had reunited with them after so many years we were just saying that such occasion should be celebrated."

Two of them tried to convince Grandma Xue while others nodded at Ye Qian, signalling him to say yes.

"Oh is it?"

Grandma Xue turned to look at Ye Qian who was still thinking what to say.

"Ah Yes, yes."

He nodded aggressively.

"If that's it then alright."

"Papa, how are we going to celebrate your arrival?"

Little Qiqi came out of the group of the ladies and asked with her puppy eyes.

Ye Qian looked at her and smiled while he chuclked.

"How about we come here on Sunday and have a small party with all of them."

Little Qiqi's smile beamed as she heard him.

"Yes, Papa Qiqi will also help with the party."

Little Qiqi nodded in excitement.

Grandma Xue looked at them and shook her head.

"You don't have to do this."

The men looked at her with annoyance as she tried to reject.

She glared back at them, so they went to their work comprising in fear.

"Its alright you have been taking care of Qiqi for so much time, I won't feel good if I don't do anything."

Ye Qian assured as he clasped his hands in front of her and bowed in gratitude.

Grandma Xue smiled at his gratification and comforted him.

"It's not like that, we also love Qiqi's company and feel good when she is with us."

"It becomes lively in this place all the time when she is here."

"Yes, yes."

The other ladies also nodded beside her.

"But you have to bring Qiqi after school, even if you are back of we will feel rather empty here."

Grandma Xue further added as she looked at Little Qiqi lovingly.

"Qiqi is like our grandchild to us she makes us feel like there is someone who cares for us, so please don't take us away from her she is the last thing that we all want."

She said as she looked at everyone who was around her as her eyes turned moist.

"Grandma Xue don't feel sad Qiqi will always come to meet and play with you all, Qiqi will be Grandma Xue and others Little Qiqi."

Little Qiqi consoled as she ran to Grandma Xue and hugged her thighs.

Listening to her the ladies around also had their eyes tearing up as they smiled at her.

"Qiqi come I made some cookies today let's eat them."

Another old lady who had most of the hairs white exclaimed.

"Yes, Grandma Wu."

Little Qiqi nodded as she patted her head.

"Come on let eat some cookies. I have added some choco chips to some of them, you like them don't you Qiqi."

"Yes."

Little Qiqi smiled as everyone doted on her and brought her to the kitchen room.

After Little Qiqi left with the ladies again, now only Ye Qian was left with the old men in the hall.

"Hey Young man what are you standing there for come have a round with us."

An old man who was playing chess called out.

"Yeah, let's see what the young generation has got."

The surrounding one cheered him.

Ye Qian walked to the table and sat on the opposite seat as the old man."

Seeing him so natural the people felt something amiss and asked.

"So your name is Ye Qian."

"Yes." Ye Qian nodded. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

"Tell us how did you meet the Yuan Meng girl, we are really interested to know about how you fished her, you don't seem that bright either."

"Umm."

Ye Qian smiled awkwardly.

He was indeed not that bright in anything back then it was just that when he was doing his masters, that Yuan Meng was his classmate and he proposed her as he liked her.

Even he was shocked when she accepted his proposal.

He was in shock for a week until his friends beat him up for having a beautiful university flower like Yuan Meng as his girlfriend.

"Well, it's nothing much, we met at the college and I proposed to her about six months before we completed our masters."

"Ohh that's very simple did she readily accepted you, seeing her looks now, I don't think that there were no good boys out there asking for her."

The men surrounded him from all gazed at him like a criminal who was in custody and started questioning him.

"Um, she was indeed the most beautiful girl among all but she rejected many boys with money and wealth."

"I just went there and asked her if she would like to stay with me and have a family."

"And that's just it, how can a dumb question make her fall for you?"

"Boy, tell us the truth you didn't drug her right?"

The men turned their gazed sharp and asked him.

It was most likely if Ye Qian were to tell the lie they would just shoot lasers from their eyes like superman and burn him to death.

"No, no, I never would do such a thing and do you really think she would stay for me till now if I did such a thing to her."

"Hmm, what you say is right but that Yuan girl is too pure and doesn't do anything wrong, we have seen her for years now."

"Yes, I really liked her then but then it turned into love, then, at last, I asked her, if she would marry me."

"And she accepted that too. Boy, isn't it like a golden pie falling on your head?"

The old men snickered as they heard him.

"She later told me that she never wanted money or any luxury but had always dreamed of living simple and have a small family. And she also liked the way I was and behaved and.... no it's not right to say."

Ye Qian said until he came to last and stopped.

"There is not something right, boy, you better speak the truth, we have friends in police as well."

"Umm, she said that I was a dummy in a relationship and she would never have to worry about me having an affair as I don't quite understand what a woman wants and what she liked."

Ye Qian recounted as he thought and looked down as he replied with a bit of shame.

"Hahaha."

"Hahaha."

The old men suddenly fell on the floor and started to roll as they laughed.

"You really are a dummy."

"Old Wang the Yuan girl is not really that innocent. If she had thought of all this six years ago."

"Hahaha. Old Yan that's called the legendary woman intuition."

"She really is a good strategist, god I need to play chess with her some time. Hahaha."

The man who played chess laughed and said.

"Dont worry Old Fu on Sunday she will come here then you can have a game with her."

"But just be aware she might just make you lose face in some moves. Haha."

Old Wang said as he finally controlled his laughter and looked at Ye Qian and said.

"Young man, have you met any women in these 5 years?"

Ye Qian nodded as he didn't understand what Old Wang really meant.

"So, did any one of them tried to ask you for accompanying for dinner or like that were having trouble and asked for your help."

Ye Qian looked up and thought for a bit and said while nodding.

"Hmm, there were many women who asked such things. Why?"

"You really are a dummy. Hahaha."

The men again rolled on the floor not able to continue to hold themselves.

"Yesterday Little Qing's mother also asked me when would I come back, why did she ask such a question?"

Ye Qian mumbled as he thought, while the old men heard some of his words and thought.

'Wow, he really is a dummy a woman even asked him when he would return and he didn't understand it, what a waste of resources.'

'That Yuan Meng is really smart in her decisions.'

Hearing the huge commotion the ladies walked in and asked.

"You old foggies why are you wiping the floor with your clothes here."

Grandma Xue said aloud as they saw them laughing and rolling on the floor.

"Umm miss Xue if you got to know this, you will also laugh like us."

Old Wang said as he controlled himself.

"What is this all about?" Grandma Xue looked puzzled.

"The girl Yuan Meng is really smart, and we were worried so much about her."

"Just don't make more puzzles to me Old Wang."

"Ok Ok, this young man right here is really a dummy."

Old Wang pointed at Ye Qian and said.

Ye Qian felt his cheeks burning.

Instead of having a chess game the situation had turned into a comedy show with one being embarassed.

Never in these 5000 years had anyone talked about him in such a way.

If people in Heavenly realm were to know this they would definitely feel bad, the man they knew as the Immortal venerable was shamed by some old men who were not even a percent of his age.
