The two rushed to the store entrance and immediately heard the sound of people arguing inside.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Yang Zhiyong and the old lady quarreling with the shop staff.

"You damn servant of our shop, meddling in these affairs, do you want to quit?" The old lady's sharp and harsh voice was piercing.

Following was Yang Zhiyong's furious roar.

"Qianqian is my niece. As an uncle, do I need your meddling when I take her out to have fun? Get out of my way, don't block us." Yang Zhiyong shouted viciously, putting on a fierce demeanor.

The shop staff faced with the old lady and Yang Zhiyong, were clearly at a disadvantage.

After all, they were just shop workers, while the old lady and Yang Zhiyong were relatives, making it hard for them to intervene.

"Old lady and this brother, please don't make it difficult for us workers. This is what the boss's wife instructed, we have no choice." The head chef of the shop, Old Wang, said helplessly.

"Boss's wife? So what! I, as the grandmother, can't take my granddaughter out to play? Get out of my way, don't delay things!" The old lady's face showed panic upon hearing Yang Caiyun's instructions.

Not wanting to waste any more time with Old Wang, she immediately pushed him aside and grabbed Xia Qianqian's hand: "Qianqian, come with Grandma, ignore these people."

Qianqian looked confused, clearly at a loss and not understanding the situation.

She had no idea what was happening.

"Old lady... You!"

Old Wang tried to step in to stop the old lady when she attempted to take Qianqian away.

Yang Zhiyong immediately stepped forward and blocked Old Wang, using a threatening tone: "Old man, I advise you not to meddle! Qianqian is my niece. How could I possibly harm her?"

Yang Zhiyong glared at Old Wang with wide eyes, as if ready to act physically if contradicted.

Old Wang was clearly feeling guilty, embarrassed to say anything further.

He opened his mouth several times, trying to speak but nothing came out.

He could only watch helplessly as the old lady held Xia Qianqian's hand and moved toward the door.

Just as the old lady and Yang Zhiyong thought they had succeeded, Chen Yang and Yang Caiyun suddenly appeared at the entrance.

"Let go of Qianqian!"

After the last incident, Yang Caiyun's heart already felt no extra emotion toward the old lady and Yang Zhiyong.

So on seeing this scene, she did not hold back her inner anger, pointing at the old lady, she scolded harshly.

The sudden appearance of Yang Caiyun left both the old lady and Yang Zhiyong stunned.

Old Wang was also taken aback, but he reacted first.

After coming to his senses, he hurried over to Yang Caiyun's side to explain.

"Boss's wife, I did my best. The old lady and that man are determined to take Qianqian, and even tried to get physical. As an outsider, I couldn't stop them." Old Wang explained to Yang Caiyun helplessly.

Yang Caiyun knew Old Wang did his best, so she had no blame for him.

"Yes, yes, I understand, Old Wang, thank you. Now that I'm back, you guys can get back to work, I'll handle it from here." Yang Caiyun said gratefully.

Seeing Yang Caiyun held no blame for him, Old Wang felt relieved.

"Alright, then I'll get back to work, Boss's wife." Old Wang nodded with a smile and quickly went back to work with the staff.

At the entrance, only Chen Yang, Yang Caiyun, the old lady, Xia Qianqian, and Yang Zhiyong remained.

"Mom!"

Upon seeing Yang Caiyun, Xia Qianqian immediately left the old lady's side and went up to Yang Caiyun.

"Uncle Chen Yang."

She also greeted Chen Yang.

"Yes." Chen Yang nodded with a smile, acknowledging, then turned his gaze to the old lady and Yang Zhiyong.

By this time, the old lady and Yang Zhiyong had snapped out of their daze.

Their expressions suddenly softened, no longer as fierce as when they were facing Old Wang.

"Ha ha, Caiyun, you've returned. Zhiyong and I were just about to take Qianqian out to play." The old lady said with a friendly smile.

Yang Zhiyong echoed with a smile beside her: "Yes, sister, isn't it a holiday today? Mom and I just wanted to take Qianqian out for a walk, but your shop staff wouldn't let us leave, it really infuriated me."

The old lady and Yang Zhiyong's faces changed quickly; when they thought Yang Caiyun had gone bankrupt last time, they didn't have this attitude.

The way they acted now was as if what happened last time never occurred.

They could act like this, but that didn't mean Yang Caiyun had forgotten.

She clearly remembered transferring one hundred thousand yuan back then, effectively severing their mother-daughter relationship.

"Take Qianqian out to play? You're after the house in Qianqian's hands, right! You are not welcome here! Get out now!"

After the last incident, Yang Caiyun no longer had any emotional attachment.

So when such a thing happened again, Yang Caiyun showed no courtesy, directly driving them away!

"Mom... What are you doing? Grandma and Uncle came to our house. Why are you so fierce?" Xia Qianqian, unaware of what happened last time, tried to persuade seeing Yang Caiyun like this.

"Qianqian, this matter is complicated. I'll explain it to you after everything is settled, okay?" Yang Caiyun didn't have time to explain to Xia Qianqian now, so she tried to keep her out of it.

"But mom, no matter what, they are still Grandma and Uncle. If there's really something, can't everyone sit down and talk it out peacefully?" Xia Qianqian insisted.

"Qianqian, mom knows what she's doing. Go upstairs; this doesn't concern you." Yang Caiyun's stance remained firm.

Seeing Yang Caiyun so determined, Xia Qianqian felt reluctant to say more.

She uttered an "oh," greeted Chen Yang again, and then turned around to leave.

Watching Xia Qianqian leave, the old lady and Yang Zhiyong spoke up.

"Sister, you're too much. Even Qianqian knows we're family. Why be so hostile to us?" Yang Zhiyong said with a tone of accusation.

"Precisely, as a mother, can't I even visit my daughter's home?"

The old lady shamelessly continued.

She had the nerve to claim Yang Caiyun as her daughter.

Recalling how decisive she was in severing mother-daughter ties when she thought Yang Caiyun had gone bankrupt last time, now speaking such words was just ridiculously thick-skinned.

Hearing their words, Yang Caiyun sneered repeatedly.

"Who are you calling sister? Who do you claim to be mom? It's only been a few days since last time, have you forgotten already? We severed ties back then, so we have no relation now, understand?" Yang Caiyun coldly brought up the past incident.

Upon her words, rare awkward expressions surfaced on the faces of Yang Zhiyong and the old lady.

But only briefly.

After a moment of awkwardness, their faces quickly switched back to smiling.

"Caiyun, you are so wrong. No matter what, I'm still your biological mom. You can't just sever ties whenever you please!" The old lady brazenly stated.

Yang Zhiyong also refused to acknowledge what happened last time: "Exactly, sister, we are family, always will be. Mom and I have already forgotten what happened last time, why are you still thinking about it?"

Their words were very pleasant, but they had no impact on Yang Caiyun now.

Their words made Yang Caiyun feel more disgusted and clearer.

In the eyes of Yang Zhiyong and the old lady, she was just a tool to be used.

If she were useful, they'd greet her with smiles, and if not, they'd try to extract every bit of value from her and then kick her aside.

With such a mother and brother, what use is there?
