"Okay, now quick tell me, how does this necklace look like?" Showing a picture in her cell phone mother Qing asked Zhi Ruo."It looks beautiful mother." exclaimed Zhi Ruo.
"Mrs. Zhi and I will be going to this auction event next month. They have soo many exceptional items. I will send you a link, you can also check them. If you like you can also join along with old ladies like us." saying Mother Qing sent a link to Zhi Ruo.
"By the way I forgot to ask you, do you want to stay for the night or leave?" added mother Qing
"Lets go and ask Qing Shan." answered Zhi Ruo while getting up.
Pulling her hand making her sit down mother Qing chided her in a loving tone, "I told you just now, you make the decision, and he will have to follow."
Confused, Zhi Ruo said after thinking for some time in a shy voice, "I want to go back."
"I understand , I understand, young couple like to spend more time with each other. Let"s go I will pack some food for you." said mother Qing.

In the garden,
"What happened?" asked Grandma Qing after reaching sufficiently far from house.
"Grandma" Surprised Qing Shan called out.
"I am old and weak, but my ear"s are everywhere. Quick Spill the beans." said Grandma in a proud tone.
"Brother yuming attacked."
"Dont call him your brother" shouted grandma with a dark face
"How? were you a fool? or was he stronger?" asked grandma after calming down a little
"I was fooled" said Qing Shan in a dejected tone.
"Do you think I don"t know that? Tell me something I want to know" said grandma while smirking.
"I didn"t get you grandma" said Qing Shan while looking at grandma Qing with a questioned face.
"Qing Shan, tell me something about your wife saving you."
"Grand.....grandma....how....how did you know?" surprised Qing Shan asked
"Qing Shan, I single handedly ruled the underworld staying behind your grandfather, I started the Qing industries from a scratch, I was also the one who changed the whole destiny of Qing Family. Do you think I wouldn"t know?"
Bowing down he apologized, "Sorry grandma."
After receiving a nod he started narrating grandma Qing what happened that day,"Grandma, there is one thing which I felt odd. I think even Zhi Ruo dosen"t know about it."
"What is it?" asked grandma Qing with an anxious face.
"Grandma, while Zhi Ruo was fighting, earlier she was slow, I mean as a normal person, I was able to see her figure fighting, but later as she progressed, her speed increased to a level where she wasn"t visible, I am not sure if it is because of practice or..."
"You were injected with sedatives Qing Shan, you saw wrong. Do you get it?" Spoke grandma Qing
Nodding to what grandma Qing said, Qing Shan continued, "Apart from that, her eye color..."
"what happened to her eyes, tell me .... tell me qing shan..." Grandma Qing interrupted Qing Shan and started shaking him from the shoulders.
holding his grandma stable Qing Shan spoke, "Calm down grandma, calm down....."
