"Is there anyone with the surname Manoban in Shunchen City?" Song Kang had been to Shunchen City several times, but had never heard of anyone with the surname Manoban.

The special assistant had already investigated Lisa. He looked down and said, "I've checked on Lisa. His family background is rather ordinary. His parents passed away early and he grew up with his grandfather."

"Grandpa..." Song Kang asked the executive assistant," Have you checked on his grandfather? "

"No. I heard that he was an old farmer who planted crops, so I didn't check."

Song Kang felt that there was something strange going on. A farmer had groomed an unfathomable Lisa?

How can that be?

"CEO Song, are we going back to the old residence or your residence tonight?" The driver asked Song Kang.

Thinking that Jennie was getting married tomorrow and worried that his little brother would cause trouble due to loneliness, Song Kang suddenly changed his mind. "Let's go back to the old residence."

He had to keep an eye on Mino in case he caused trouble.

Returning to the old residence, Song Kang alighted. Just as he was about to enter the house, he noticed that the lights in the villa at the end of the road were turned on. He called out to the butler and asked him, "Has the owner of the villa returned?"

Song Kang had long heard that the villa was where Old General Manoban stayed. But Old General Manoban seldom came back after returning to his hometown in Shunchen.

The butler looked at the lit villa. "Yes, Young Master. I think he came back this afternoon."

Song Kang asked the butler, "Where's Mino?"

"Second Young Master is at home."

"Keep an eye on him. He is not allowed to leave the house without my permission tonight and tomorrow." With that, Song Kang took the coat from the butler's hands, put it on himself, and walked towards the villa alone.

The villa had been built quite a few years ago. The red walls were covered in moss and surrounded by green trees. It looked simple and mysterious. As Song Kang approached the villa, he vaguely saw an old man walking along the corridor on the first level.

Song Kang purposely made some noise.

The old man was holding a watering can and turned to look at Song Kang. Upon seeing him, Aoyu thought for a moment before saying, "You're the little grandson of the Song Family?"

Seeing that the old man had guessed his identity, Song Kang hurriedly nodded and greeted him. "Good evening, Old Master, I'm Song Kang from the Song Family. I just got off work and saw that your house was lit up, so I came over to take a look."

Staring at the old man's strong and healthy body, Song Kang said, "Old Master still looks very healthy. I wonder if I will have the fortune to get a drink from the birthday boy on your 100th birthday?"

It was just that Song Kang didn't like to speak, but that didn't mean he didn't know how to speak. In front of a powerful old man, Song Kang could also turn a stone into a diamond with his words.

Upon hearing this, Aoyu smiled broadly. "The last time I saw you, you were just a little kid who was good at driving toy cars. In the blink of an eye, you've already grown up. Even your grandfather can't compare to your bootlicking skills!"

Song Kang just smiled.

"Sit, why are you standing there!"

Only then did Song Kang sit down. Staring at the black pine in front of Old Master, Song Kang asked, "Old Master, you brought this black pine from your hometown, right?" A potted black pine that Old Master always carried wherever he went must mean a lot to him.

Aoyu said, "This was planted before my wife passed away. I usually carry it with me so that I won't worry about it."

"Old Master's genuine heart towards Old Madam is admirable." If he had heard these words in the past, Song Kang might have respected the other party, but he wouldn't have felt anything else. But hearing these words today, Song Kang felt slightly upset when he thought of how blissful it was to be able to grow old with the person he loved.

How can such a young girl be so unfortunate?

"That's nothing. You will understand when you get married in the future." Aoyu looked at Song Kang and thought of his own grandson Lisa. He couldn't help sighing. "I also have a grandson. You might not remember that when you were young, he even used a bicycle to bring you around."

Aoyu pointed at the river at the foot of the mountain. "In the past, that area was a wasteland with lots of fish and prawns. My grandson was very naughty. He placed you by the river and went fishing by himself. In the end, you fell into the ditch and nearly drowned. He saved you but didn't dare to tell us. Worried that he would be scolded, he even brought you out to the streets to buy a new set of clothes."

"In the end, you caught a cold after returning home. You caught a fever at night and fell ill. After that, your grandfather didn't allow you to play with that hooligan grandson of mine anymore. You might not even remember this."

It was true that Song Kang didn't remember this. But when his grandfather was still alive, he told him that there was a mischievous child in that family halfway up the hill. He even said that he wondered what that fatty did when he grew up.

Song Kang asked Aoyu, "Then what is he doing now?"

"Like you, he's doing business as well."

Song Kang wanted to get to know the young master of the Manoban Family. "Oh? I wonder what his name is. Perhaps I know him too."

Aoyu had just started speaking and said, "Li..." when he recalled his grandson's low-profile character and stopped himself in time. "Ah! He's not worth mentioning. Anyway, he's not as good as you."

Aoyu put down the watering can, looked at the clock, and said, "It's getting late, I need to rest. I can't delay tomorrow's important matters."

Song Kang immediately got up and bid Old Master Manoban farewell. "Good night, Old Master Manoban. I won't disturb you anymore. I'll come visit another day."

"Alright, I will be staying here for a longer period of time this time. Come visit my house more often when you are free. My cooking tastes pretty good. I will fry some small fish for you!" The farm work at home was already done and they were just waiting for the potatoes to be planted in December. Since there was nothing to do back home, Aoyu decided to stay here for a few months.

Song Kang expressed that he looked forward to it.

After he left, Aoyu told Zhong Buhui to close the door and returned to his room to rest.

Arriving home, Song Kang told the butler about the old master on the mountain. "That old master has a grandson?" Song Kang asked the butler, "When I was young, I went to the river with his grandson to fish?"

The butler frowned at the mention of this.

He said, "That family's grandson is very mischievous. When he was young, he always brought you to do dangerous things. He brought you to the river to fish, but you ended up in the river. Not only did he not bring you back, but he was also afraid of being scolded. He even brought you to the streets to buy clothes, thinking that you would not be discovered if you came back wearing dry clothes..."

The butler shook his head and sighed. "He's too mischievous. I wonder how capable he is now. I don't think that the grandson of that old man is a pushover either."

Song Kang asked him, "I heard from Old Master that his grandson is also in the business world. I might have seen him before. Do you remember his name?"

"His name is Pran. Everyone calls him Pran, but I don't know what his full name is."

"Pran?" Song Kang sounded shocked and doubtful.
