"He said he went to pick out a gift for me. What do you think he'll buy? Maybe some valuable jewelry, or a box full of cash!"

Jian Mujin's eyes lit up whenever money was mentioned.

"Tacky! So tacky! Tingwei is a man of taste, he wouldn't give money, it's more likely jewelry!"

At noon, Long Tingwei finally arrived. He had dropped Ling Yuexue off at a place not far from the old man's residence before driving the car into the Long family's old house.

As soon as he entered, Long Tingwei tossed a beautifully packaged box over and then sank into the sofa.

"What is this? It's so small. Let me guess, it's probably a ring, a diamond, or maybe a wad of cash!"

Jian Mujin didn't notice Long Tingwei's disdainful expression as he turned his head away; he was engrossed in playing on his phone with his head down.

"A ring? Diamonds? Come, come, open it and let me see!" The old man leaned closer to take a look.

Jian Mujin clutched it to her chest. "No, what if there are many diamonds? If even one falls out, we won't be able to find it. I have to open it secretly by myself, so you old geezer can't see it!"

Jian Mujin ran out quickly, and the old man laughed nonstop.

"Grandpa, I'm taking her out for a walk. You stay home and rest!"

"Yes, you should definitely take her out to have some fun. Try to get to know her better; she's definitely someone you should cherish!"

Long Tingwei didn't say much. This woman was obviously putting on an act for the old man's benefit; he wasn't as foolish as the old man.

After Long Tingwei left, Jian Mujin suddenly rushed in and threw herself into his arms. Long Tingwei took two steps back in disgust.

Seeing Jian Mujin's happy face, the old man knew that the gift Long Tingwei gave must have pleased her. His grandson was a man of good taste.

"Dan'er, come here, it's your birthday today. Grandpa has a gift for you too. These are earrings from Long Tingwei's mother, and they're for you!"

When Long Tingwei saw the box, his face immediately darkened. The earrings were the most meaningful thing his father had given his mother, and they were also a symbol of Mrs. Long. How could he just give them to such a woman of impure character?

Jian Mujin touched her unpierced ears and said, "Oh, I see. Does that mean I can't sell them or wear them?"

Long Tingwei's face darkened. This woman actually wanted to sell her for money. How could his grandfather have taken a liking to such a woman!

Before the old man could speak, Long Tingwei grabbed her and left.

Grandpa Long could only watch their retreating figures and nod slightly.

Long Tingwei pulled Jian Mujin into the car and snatched the box that her grandfather had given her.

"These are my mother's things, you have no right to take them!"

Jian Mujin pouted and looked out of the car. She didn't feel sorry for it, since that thing was of no use to her anyway.

But she took out the keychain and smiled broadly, "This little bear keychain is cute, and it even has a tuft of fur on its tail, it's so soft!"

Jian Mujin rubbed the bear's furry tail against her face and nose.

Long Tingwei felt uncomfortable. "You can pretend with my grandfather, but don't pretend in front of me. Your behavior disgusts me!"

"I'm not pretending! I clearly like it, okay? But I'd like it even more if you could go out and buy me some more valuable things. You're not short of money. I've already picked out all of them. Look at this one, this one, and this one. Why don't you pick one and buy it for me?"

Long Tingwei glanced at it and found that Jian Mujin's old and worn-out phone contained several pictures of particularly gorgeous jewelry. They were some of the latest jewelry designs from his jewelry company.

The price was quite high; I never expected this woman to have her eye on it.

"Don't covet what doesn't belong to you. And don't be smug about taking what belongs to others; one day I will take back what is rightfully yours!"

Long Tingwei left a sentence and drove away. Then, halfway there, he kicked her out of the car and went to a car wash to wash it.

Before Jian Mujin could react, she felt a sharp pain in her body; her arm and wrist were scraped.

"You despicable Long Tingwei, you bastard!"

Jian Mujin picked up the bear keychain, blew off the dust, and then put it in her pocket.

After watching Long Tingwei and the others drive away, Ling Yuexue walked gracefully toward the Long family's old residence.

She had never met the old man, but she knew that he was not someone who could be easily fooled, so she was both nervous and cautious when she went in.

The security guard at the entrance had received instructions from Long Tingwei, so he let her in almost without hesitation.

When Grandpa Long saw her, he raised his sharp eyes and sat down in his chair, looking very old.

"Grandpa, hello, I am..."

"You don't need to say anything. I know you're Long Tingwei's girlfriend. Please sit down!"

Ling Yuexue sat awkwardly to one side, not daring to glance around. Did the old man know her? He must have investigated her?

"How did you meet Tingwei?" The old man asked with a serious expression, a stark contrast to his demeanor when Jian Mujin was around.

"I…"

Not long after, Ling Yuexue emerged from the Long family's old residence, her face deathly pale. Old Master Long was far more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.

He disagreed with her contacting Long Tingwei and even tried to offer her a price to leave him.

However, compared to Mrs. Long's status, the small amount of money he gave her was clearly far more alluring.

The old man won't live for many more years, and she can't give up on Long Tingwei because of that. She has to find a way to get the old man out of the house.

After leaving, she immediately called Long Tingwei, her voice trembling with tears, "Tingwei, Grandpa doesn't seem to like me. Do you think it's because that Mu Jin said something about me? He was full of praise for her, but he was extremely disparaging towards me. Sigh, forget it, let's just call it quits!"

"Xue'er, don't worry, where are you now? I'll come pick you up!"

A few minutes later, Long Tingwei arrived in his new car to pick up Ling Yuexue.

Ling Yuexue struggled and cried uncontrollably, while Long Tingwei patiently and gently coaxed her.

"Xue'er, it will take time for Grandpa to accept you. He may be a little unhappy because he knows that I still see you after I got my marriage certificate with that woman. But don't worry, I will continue to work on his mindset and I will definitely convince him to accept you!"

"But he only likes Jian Mujin! No matter how well I do, he will never like me!"

"It's his business if he likes that woman, it has nothing to do with me. I won't spend my whole life with a woman like that. Don't worry, at most two months, I will definitely divorce her!"

Ling Yuexue's eyes flickered slightly. That kind of woman? Could it be that the person she planted had worked?

Ling Yuexue smiled almost imperceptibly, then said, "Sigh, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have gone today. I disturbed his mood. Tingwei, do you have any ideas to make Grandpa happier? Like, take him for a walk or go on vacation somewhere?"

"Well, I'll try to go and spend some more time with Grandpa. I think he'll accept me soon!"
