In that instant, Zhou Xubai seemed to have found a savior, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He quickly turned his head and kept winking at Zhou Shi'an.

His expression seemed to say: Son, save me!

Zhou Shi'an gave Zhou Shijin a reassuring look and led him into the living room.

After standing beside his parents, he respectfully bowed to the two elders sitting on the sofa:

"Grandpa, Grandma."

Old Master Zhou snorted coldly: "Hmph, what's wrong? You don't welcome the two old folks?"

Or do you know you're not of the Zhou family bloodline and are preparing to turn your back on them?

Zhou Shi'an maintained his forward-leaning posture and began to explain:

"Grandpa is joking. Shi'an is just worried about Grandpa and Grandma's health."

You should have informed my grandson beforehand so I could have picked you up personally.

Upon hearing this, the old man's expression softened considerably, but he still gave him a cold glance.

"You say nice things, but I should have kept you by my side in the first place."

Now they've all been led astray by that rebellious son, and they've started hiding everything from each other..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Old Mrs. Zhou.

"Alright, that's enough. Are you going to keep nagging like this?"

As she spoke, the old lady looked at Zhou Shi'an with a doting expression: "Shi'an, stand up and talk."

Don't listen to your grandfather; he's old and his mind isn't what it used to be.

Hearing his grandmother's instructions, Zhou Shi'an finally dared to stand up straight and look directly at the two elderly people.

"Thank you, Grandma. You two are still young."

"To be honest, this whole thing is my fault, so please don't blame your parents."

Hearing his words, Zhou Xubai was so moved that he almost burst into tears on the spot.

As expected of my good eldest son, he still remembers to speak up for his father even at a time like this.

Grandma Zhou didn't say anything, but the doting look in her eyes didn't diminish at all.

Even Old Master Zhou couldn't help but show a hint of satisfaction on his face.

He coughed lightly and tapped the ground with his cane.

"Alright, everyone sit down and talk."

Zhou Xubai felt as if he had been granted a pardon. He was like a frightened rabbit, and he hurriedly pulled his wife to sit a little further away from the elderly couple.

Zhou Tingxiao and Wang Guilan also took their seats.

For a moment, only the Zhou brothers, Zhou Shi'an and Zhou Shi'an, remained standing in the arena.

When Zhou Shi'an realized that his father didn't even care about his own son, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

However, he could understand that it wasn't that Zhou Xubai didn't care about Zhou Shijin, but rather that the two old men's aura was too oppressive.

Even though she had been personally taught by her grandparents for five years, she still couldn't remain calm under such pressure.

He whispered a reminder: "Shi Jin, come and call for help."

"Huh?" Zhou Shijin seemed to snap out of his daze after hearing his older brother's words.

He instinctively turned his head, only to meet the scrutinizing gazes of the two elderly people.

In that instant, he felt like he had no secrets left, and his heart was pounding in his throat.

The next moment, Zhou Shijin's legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground with a "thump".

Fortunately, he has good adaptability.

Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, he respectfully kowtowed deeply.

"Zhou, Zhou Shijin, greets Grandpa and Grandma!"

The two elders were clearly taken aback by his actions.

Initially, they were very dissatisfied with their grandson's inappropriate attire.

Especially since the other party had been standing there for so long without even saying hello, they had no manners at all.

Unexpectedly, the other party was also a person who knew proper manners.

Little did they know, Zhou Shijin was terrified.

In his past life, he was fearless and had a very unruly personality.

But when he was with his grandparents, he didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

There was no way around it; he was a ruthless man who had been on the battlefield and killed Japanese soldiers. How could he not be afraid?

Especially my own grandmother, who usually looks kind and gentle and rarely gets angry.

However, he knew very well that this old lady was the most ruthless person in the family.

Back then, facing the enemy's siege, she single-handedly killed a total of twelve Japanese soldiers.

Even after being shot six times, he still managed to stab an enemy who was trying to escape to death with his bayonet.

This record is terrifying to even think about!

When Grandpa Zhou saw that his grandson was kneeling respectfully on the ground without him saying a word, he nodded in satisfaction.

"Hmm, not bad, worthy of being a descendant of the Zhou family."

Even without proper upbringing or any bad habits, get up.

Upon hearing the old man's instructions, Zhou Shijin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma!" he said, then stood up.

But he found that his legs were still weak and he almost fell to the ground.

Zhou Shi'an reacted quickly and caught him.

In the eyes of the two elders, this scene meant that their grandson had been kneeling for too long and his legs had gone numb.

This filial piety is rare and precious!

This made them even more satisfied with the bloodline they had just regained.

"Shi An, you and Shi Jin, please sit down as well."

"Yes, Grandma!" Zhou Shi'an replied, helping Zhou Shijin sit on the sofa.

As soon as the two sat down, Old Mrs. Zhou's voice rang out again.

"Shi An, Shi Jin, what are your plans regarding this matter between the two of you?"

Upon hearing the old lady's question, Zhou Xubai immediately became anxious.

"Mom, the two children..."

Before he could finish speaking, Old Mrs. Zhou gave him a sharp look.

"Shut up, you jerk! Did I even ask you a question? You have no manners!"

Zhou Xubai quickly lowered his head, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Zhou Shi'an could clearly feel that Zhou Shijin's body trembled twice just a moment ago.

He shook his head helplessly and spoke first:

"Grandpa, Grandma, to be honest, I was quite sad when I first found out that I wasn't my parents' biological child."

My first reaction was to leave the Zhou family.

Because I feel that I have taken over Shi Jin's identity, and that I have enjoyed the love of my grandparents, parents and children for more than 20 years.

I fear my existence will be a thorn, forever lodged in everyone's hearts.

Upon hearing his words, the two elderly people's faces turned very ugly.

"But!" Zhou Shi'an suddenly changed the subject:

"After Shi Jin came back, I realized that it wasn't the melodramatic scenes that were shown in the short drama."

They are not my biological parents; they switched our identities.

At that moment, I felt extremely fortunate, fortunate that God had given me such a perfect family.

So, I've decided not to leave!

At this point, he slowly raised his head and looked at the two elders with a sincere expression.

"As long as my grandparents, parents, and I need you, I, Zhou Shi'an, will always be a member of the Zhou family!"

Upon hearing this, the two elderly people's expressions immediately softened.

Grandma Zhou didn't say anything, but instead turned her gaze to Zhou Shijin.

"Shi Jin, what are your thoughts on this matter?"
