Chapter 546: Master Zhai Visits the Hospital
“Ahh, I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Wen Cheng replied.
“Why is it not a good idea? If there’s something that you can do to help your brother-in-law, would you do it? You wouldn’t be stingy about it, would you? As of now, we need their help and recommendation. I don’t think they will be stingy about it either.”
Cai Qinyue’s words made sense.
“Hmm, I will ask them about it later then,” Wen Cheng replied. He did not comment any further on the matter.
However, Cai Qinyue knew what to do.
In the next few days, she planned to hang out with the Jian family more. She had to use this opportunity!
###
In the hospital ward, Grandpa Jian, Jian Shuxing, Wen Nuan, and Nie Yun were all accompanying Grandma Jian.
All of a sudden, there was a very special guest visiting the ward.
At first, everyone failed to recognize the old man who was wearing a Chinese tunic suit.
“How are you feeling?”
The old gentleman asked politely. His smile was kind and amiable, but at the same time, it was a little overly attentive.
Generally speaking, no one would be this attentive unless they had ulterior motives. This made the Jian family instinctively assume that the old gentleman in front of them was here for something else.
However, this was Beijing and not Hengyuan City.
The Jian family wasn’t well known in Beijing.
Compared to the rich and powerful families in Beijing, the Jian family was merely considered ordinary.
Then, the Jian family glanced at the pile of gifts brought by the old gentleman. Each gift was incredibly valuable.
There was an ice jade bangle amongst the gifts.
Furthermore, there were entire sets of valuable antiques.
According to the old gentleman, the gifts were in line with Grandma Jian’s temperament.
If it weren’t for the fact that Grandpa Jian was there, everyone would have suspected that the old gentleman was planning to woo Grandma Jian.
“Umm… Excuse me… Who are you?” Jian Shuxing asked carefully.
“Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself,” Master Zhai said with a smile. “My surname is Zhai. I’m Zhai Yunsheng’s grandpa. That brat must have caused you guys a lot of trouble in Hengyuan City. Thank you for taking care of him.”
Upon hearing this, the entire room froze.
Master Zhai…
Everyone talked about him!
He was meant to be a terrifying man!
Was he… Was he really Master Zhai?
Everyone in the Jian family was shocked.
They stared at the old gentleman in front of him. The previously imagined image of an oppressive tyrant was shattered in pieces by the smiling old gentleman in front of them.
Was this real?
Was this man really Master Zhai? They almost took him for a swindler that flattered everyone!
The Jian family began to doubt their life.
However, Master Zhai did not notice that his ‘amicable’ image had shocked the Jian family. He continued to speak to Grandma Jian.
“Why isn’t your granddaughter here? I heard that she got along well with my grandson. I think they’re both at the age of marriage. And thus, instead of marrying them off to someone that they don’t know, why don’t we just pair them up? Let’s settle a marriage.”
Master Zhai’s words gave everyone another wave of shock.
The Jian family hadn’t finished digesting the first wave yet!
Settle a marriage between Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng?!
What?!
Even if the two of them knew each other… Wasn’t this a bit too much?!
Settling a marriage was way too far!
However, the Jian family failed to respond to such a simple question. They remained frozen for quite some time.
