Lan Mu felt a jolt in his heart and asked nervously, "What do you mean?"
The old man said, "Zaozao sent me a message."
With that, he took out his cellphone, opened WeChat, and showed Lan Mu the message Yan Zao had sent him.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry, I have let you down again."

Lan Mu looked up in surprise, "Grandpa."
