Lin Huang and Yin Hangyi waited at the pavilion in the courtyard for the guard to inform the family about their arrival .

Soon, the guard brought the butler over .
The butler wore a black tuxedo as usual . He did not seem to have changed at all compared to two years ago .
Fatty was slightly emotional when he saw the butler . He almost wanted to greet him, but Lin Huang, who was next to him, stopped him through voice transmission .
“Mr . Lin, it’s been a while!” The butler clearly did not recognize Yin Hangyi . He was very friendly when he saw Lin Huang .
After all, he might have been dismissed by the family if Lin Huang had not taken over Ke Lai Hotel two years ago . If the family’s financial situation were already unstable, feeding another person would be a burden, let alone a butler like him who required a high pay .
“It’s been over two years . I can’t believe you still recognize me!” Lin Huang exclaimed with a smile .
“You’re the family’s savior . How can we forget you?” the butler replied politely .
“Don’t say that . ” Lin Huang waved his hand immediately . “Is the old lady home?”
“She’s waiting in the living room on the second floor . ” The butler abruptly noticed Yin Hangyi’s existence . “May I know who this is?”
“He’s a friend . ” Lin Huang only gave a brief response and explained no more .

Seeing that Lin Huang was unwilling to say more, the butler did not ask further . “I’ll bring you guys over . ”
Both of them followed behind the butler and headed to the house after passing the courtyard .
After entering the house, the butler led both of them to the second floor .
An old lady with silver hair was sitting on a couch in the living room of the second floor . There was a woman sitting on her left .
Lin Huang recognized the woman who was sitting next to the old lady . She was Yin Hangyi’s aunt .
“Xiao Lin, it’s been so long since you last visited me!” greeted the old lady delightedly as soon as she saw Lin Huang .
Lin Huang felt nothing, but Yin Hangyi almost burst in tears when he saw the old lady .
“It’s my fault . I should’ve visited you more,” Lin Huang said with a smile .
The old lady saw Yin Hangyi who was next to him after speaking to Lin Huang . She seemed to be afraid to isolate the new guest, so she asked immediately, “This is…”
“This guy next to me…” Lin Huang did not reveal the answer immediately . He was afraid that the old lady was not mentally prepared, so he simply said while smiling, “This is a surprise that I brought you today . ”

“A surprise? Are you guys performing a show for me?” the old lady asked bemusedly .
However, the old lady was actually skeptical . She peeped at the calendar secretly . It was the 26th of November . She thought about this date in her head quickly, but she did not recall anything special about the day . It was not a festival or anyone’s birthday .
Though doubtful, the old lady did not ask why Lin Huang picked such a day to surprise her .
“It’s a special performance,” Lin Huang responded, “I think you’ll like it . ”
“Let’s begin then . ” The old lady could not figure out what Lin Huang was trying to do at all, but she chose to believe him .
Lin Huang signaled Grimace, who was invisible next to him, and they snapped their fingers together .
At the same time the fingers snapped, the disguise on Yin Hangyi’s head was removed completely, revealing his original face .
As soon as Yin Hangyi’s face was unveiled, the entire room fell into a dead silence .
The expression of the old lady, who was smiling, turned stiff before she subsequently became emotional .
The aunt sitting next to her was smiling along with her at the beginning . She had shock written all over her face when she saw Yin Hangyi’s face .

Standing not far away, the butler was stunned . His mouth was opened for quite a while .
“Hangyi?!” The old lady’s voice was shaking a little . “Is that really you?” She turned her head and looked at Lin Huang . She asked him, “Is this real?”
Lin Huang nodded lightly . “In reality, Yin Hangyi isn’t dead . He had to fake his death back then to hide from his enemy, a Royal . He got me to put on a show with him . ”
“The Royal I offended came from a major organization in the core zone . I had to fake my death to prevent him from taking revenge on me . Fortunately, the clan the person came from offended someone they shouldn’t and the whole clan was killed . Since then, I can finally stop disguising myself . ” Both of them came up with that story when they were buying clothes earlier .
“How about your appearance? Why do you look exactly the same as two years ago?” The aunt raised her doubt . She noticed that because the difference was terribly stark when Lin Huang stood next to Yin Hangyi . She still remembered clearly how Lin Huang looked like two years ago .
“The elixir that I injected had a special side effect whereby my body would remain how I was when I was injected . This side effect isn’t permanent . It’ll only last two to three years at the most,” Yin Hangyi told her the lie that Lin Huang had come up with earlier .
The old lady finally calmed down and turned her head to look at Lin Huang . She stared at him seriously for a while before asking, “Xiao Lin, is he really Hangyi? Are you lying?”
“Grandma, I might joke about other stuff, but I’d definitely never joke about this,” Lin Huang replied grimly .
The old lady nodded and turned her head to look at Yin Hangyi . She gave him a stern look before speaking, “If you really are Hangyi, I hope don’t mind me asking something personal . ”
“Go ahead, Grandma . ” Yin Hangyi nodded, feeling a little helpless .
“Hangyi always wet his bed when he was younger . When was the last time he wet his bed? What were the time and date? I believe you’d remember this crystal-clear if you really are Hangyi . Moreover, it’s pretty impossible for Hangyi to tell someone else this . ”
Yin Hangyi looked bothered as he said helplessly after peeping at Lin Huang, “It last happened when I was 11 . It was summer, and the exact date should’ve been 18th June . I remember I drank too much water the day before, and I had a dream of me looking for the toilet the entire night . I found it eventually…”
“That’s rather detailed . ” Lin Huang made fun of him .
“Another question . ” The old lady nodded . “Which of my dishes did you hate the most?”
“There are actually two answers to this question . One is onion rings and another is cold noodles because I really hate onion and coriander . ” Fatty shared the answer .
The old lady could not stop the tears from flowing when she heard the answer . “You really are Hangyi!”
“Grandma…” Yin Hangyi was holding back, but he could not help it when he saw the old lady crying . He could not stop weeping too .
He rushed to his grandma and hugged her . The grandmother and grandson sobbed while hugging, finally calming down a while later .
Lin Huang said nothing . Instead, he waited for the people to calm down before telling them to allow Yin Hangyi to disguise himself .
The old lady and the rest agreed to that immediately and they promised to keep Yin Hangyi’s return a secret .
After handling Fatty and the family’s matter, Lin Huang transferred Ke Lai Hotel’s shares back to the family . He then bade farewell to the family and returned to Emperor City in Division 1 .
