Chapter 15: Shocking! An Eighty-Year-Old Lady Goes Bungee Jumping!

At the same time.

Mu Yiyi and her younger brother Mu Nan sat in a café in silence.

After a while, Mu Nan couldn’t hold back anymore and spoke up, “Sis, you must’ve been tricked by that guy surnamed Qin! I saw it with my own eyes—he called that old lady Grandma!”

Mu Yiyi’s face darkened as she gripped her coffee cup tightly. “I know. I saw it too.”

Qin Yansen had told her everything was arranged. Now it looked like the only thing he arranged… was his own grandmother!

She had thought Qin Yansen was helping her brother win. Turns out it was all just her wishful thinking!

Otherwise, how could an eighty-year-old lady play in an e-sports competition?

It made no sense!

The more Mu Yiyi thought about it, the angrier she got. She bit her lip hard in frustration.

She had actually been played by Qin Yansen!

And that old lady didn’t look like a kind soul either—covered in tattoos, probably a fierce, sharp-tongued, and difficult person!

The worst part was, this whole thing cost her brother the championship. He was humiliated in his own area of expertise by an eighty-year-old woman. Wasn’t that a deliberate slap in the face?

Qin Yansen knew how important this competition was for her brother, and he still went through with this? Lu Zeyan was right—there’s not a single decent person in the Qin family!

Mu Yiyi glanced at her dejected younger brother sitting across from her and suddenly felt a bit unsettled. Just as she was about to say something to comfort him, the screen of her phone lit up.

Qin Yansen:
Yiyi, I’m really sorry about today. I didn’t expect my grandma to join the competition either.

Mu Yiyi let out a cold laugh. If it was just about joining, fine—but what about winning the championship? How was he going to explain that?

An eighty-year-old lady winning a tournament? That was clearly unreasonable. And Qin Yansen still had the nerve to act clueless and argue with her? Was this all just a joke to him?

Mu Yiyi paused for a moment, then typed a reply:

Mu Yiyi:
Your grandma is really something. But maybe don’t come looking for me these next few days—I might be a bit busy.

Qin Yansen:
Busy with what? Do you need my help?

Mu Yiyi:
My brother lost the competition. He lost to an old lady. He’s feeling really down. I need to be there for him. So it’s best you don’t come around—he probably doesn’t want to see you right now.

Qin Yansen:
My grandma’s health has been really bad lately. She may not have much time left. So… I didn’t have much choice today. I’m sorry.

Qin Yansen:
I’ll arrange another competition in a few days. I promise I won’t let my grandma participate this time.

Mu Yiyi:
It’s fine. If your grandma doesn’t have long left, you should spend more time with her.

Qin Yansen:
Mm. Yiyi, I knew you were kind and would understand.

“……”

Mu Yiyi was speechless. Could Qin Yansen really not tell how angry she was?

Or was he just pretending not to notice?

Qin Family Ancestral Home.

Just as Lin Qingqing finished speaking, a voice from the system rang out in her mind:

[System: Congratulations, Host. You’ve gained 10 Surprise Points. You can now reverse your age by 1 year. Current body age: 60.]

Lin Qingqing had already mastered the secret to surprising her family: say something completely unexpected. That was an easy way to rack up surprise points.

But… the surprise value from just now felt a bit low. Out of three people, only one was genuinely shocked. Clearly, just talking wasn’t enough—the level of shock had to go higher.

Looks like tomorrow, she’d need to really challenge something difficult.

It was the perfect chance to finally try all the thrilling activities she’d never been willing to spend money on before!

Lin Qingqing didn’t want to be lectured by the second Qin family branch anymore. She simply went upstairs to shower and sleep.

Qin He watched the rebellious old lady walk away, completely ignoring him. Anxiously, he turned to Qin Haishan: “Dad, look at Grandma! You need to talk to her! At her age, bungee jumping could really kill her!”

Qin Haishan calmly waved a hand. “Son, you’re still too young. The older people get, the more they cherish life and the time they have left. Didn’t your grandma say earlier that she only went to that bar to find a male model because she wanted to feel alive a bit longer? There’s no way she’ll actually go bungee jumping. She was just saying that to scare us because we annoyed her.”

Qin Haishan’s wife, Yang Chun, nodded in agreement. “I think your dad’s right. What’s more important now is that dragon tattoo on your grandma. She actually got it done and posted it on her Moments. Everyone in our circle knows. The eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family even took a screenshot and sent it to me privately to laugh at us. I’ve been too embarrassed to play mahjong with them these past two days.”

Qin He’s expression was filled with worry. “Based on what Grandma’s been doing these days, I think she might actually be serious. You both need to keep a close eye on her—don’t let her leave the house.”

Qin Haishan was confident. “She won’t. Instead of worrying about that, you should focus on managing the company. The future of the Qin family rests on you now.”

Qin He raised an eyebrow. “What about big brother?”

Qin Haishan scoffed. “Your big brother only knows how to chase after some woman all day. If you ask me, he’ll die because of a woman sooner or later. And as for Qin Jingshu—he’s useless. Right now, the Qin family can only rely on you.”

Qin He chuckled lightly and didn’t respond further.

The next morning, Lin Qingqing, now with her tattoo removed, took a car directly to the Jiang City Hezhuang Scenic Area.

The driver thought the old lady was just going for sightseeing and didn’t ask questions.

He did, however, smile and say, “Granny, you’re looking really well today.”

Lin Qingqing flexed her arms and rolled her neck, feeling the state of her 60-year-old body. The corners of her mouth curled up. “I think so too. Maybe it’s because I’m in a good mood lately. That always improves your complexion and energy.”

Waking up younger—who could understand that kind of happiness? It was truly a blessing!

But she’d earned it through her own efforts.

Last night, she even accumulated a total of 100 Surprise Points and unlocked an additional storyline. That made her mood even better.

For her, every extra storyline meant a chance to change her family’s fate. Of course she was in a great mood.

So now, her top priority was to speed up collecting Surprise Points, finish reversing her age, and unlock all the bonus storylines.

That way, she could finally live the happy life of a wealthy tycoon!

This morning, she checked online and found out there was bungee jumping at the Jiang City Hezhuang Scenic Area. She was heading there specifically to shock her descendants!

However, when she arrived at the bungee jump location, the staff stopped her right away.

One of the workers looked at the elderly woman with white hair and smiled politely, “Granny, we have a policy here. At your age, you’re not allowed to participate in this activity.”

“?”

Lin Qingqing had been imagining all morning how shocked her family would be watching her bungee jump. She never expected she’d be stopped before she even got started—just because of her age!

Was there anything that could defeat a future tycoon?

No!

Lin Qingqing pulled a black card from her bag and said with a commanding tone, “I’m buying out this place.”

She had originally just wanted to be a low-key little old lady. But these people were forcing her to use the power of money.

Surely it was fine to bungee jump… on her own property!
