Eldest Uncle, concerned about Shao Liulang's absence, paid a visit to the third section of the family to inquire about his whereabouts. He approached Third Uncle and Ms. Ma, expressing his desire for Shao Liulang to return so that Yunduan could offer him assistance. Eldest Uncle believed that Yunduan's connections and guidance could potentially help Shao Liulang find success. He held a genuine hope that the two boys could achieve greatness together.
Third Uncle and Ms. Ma, upon hearing Eldest Uncle's words, felt a surge of motivation.
The stark reality they faced left no room for self-deception. They understood the importance of taking action and confronting the challenges ahead.
Reluctantly, Third Uncle and Ms. Ma acknowledged that Shao Liulang could benefit from Shao Yunduan's assistance in his journey forward.
They had privately conveyed this notion to Shao Liulang, but he adamantly refused to accept it. He was unwilling to confront the truth.
