Chapter 288



Lin Wanwan went when Gu Bei and his wife were not home.

Xu Zhang looked at her in surprise, "Why are you here at this hour? Have you eaten?"

"Godmother, I've already eaten. I drove over after lunch."

"Where's the child? Why didn't Lu Feng come?"

"Godmother, why do you keep asking other people? Why don't you ask your beautiful daughter?"

Xu Zhang patted her on the shoulder, "How old are you? Still jealous."

Lin Wanwan carefully examined her complexion.

"Godmother, why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xu Zhang's expression flickered, which Lin Wanwan keenly noticed.

Has Dr. Kim come by these past few days?

Although Xu Zhang had recovered from his illness, Lin Wanwan was still worried and begged Jin Hai for a long time before he agreed to come and check the Xu family's pulse once a week.

Xu Zhang nodded. "I came yesterday. It's fine. Don't worry."

Lin Wanwan stared at her in disbelief for a while, then sat down on the sofa and called Jin Hai.

Xu Zhang didn't stop her. Jin Hai heard that it was Lin Wanwan who asked about Xu Zhang's health, and knowing that Lin Wanwan was worried, he spoke directly.

“Your godmother’s problem is caused by insomnia and overthinking. I prescribed her some calming medicine.”

"Thank you, Uncle Jin. I'll come visit you when I have time."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Wanwan looked at Xu Zhang, whose eyes were red.

"Godmother, you weren't feeling well, why did you hide it from me? Were you trying to worry me to death?"

Xu Zhang immediately comforted her, "Oh, it's nothing serious. Dr. Jin said it's nothing, just take some calming medicine."

"Godmother, this isn't right. You should tell me if you're not feeling well. If you keep it from me again, I'm really going to get angry."

Xu Zhe was reading a book on the side, laughing uncontrollably.

“There’s always someone who can keep you in line. You won’t listen to anything I say all day, but once this little housekeeper comes along, you’ll behave.”

Qian Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, don't fret."

Lin Wanwan rambled on for a while before finally getting down to business.

"Grandpa and Grandma, Godfather and Godmother, I came here today to discuss something with you."

Xu Zhe put down his book and looked at her. "What's wrong? What happened?"

Gu Changfeng looked at her as well, "Is something wrong at work?"

“No, I just wanted to discuss something with you. The villa area in my development is finished, and since you're all retired and your grandparents are getting old, and it's quiet there, I'd like you to move there. My brother and sister-in-law can stay here, so it'll be more convenient for them to go to work.”

Xu Zhe and Qian Qian exchanged a glance and asked, "Why do you suddenly want us to move there?"

"It's not that sudden. I've been planning this for a long time. I've also asked my maternal grandparents to move there, as well as Cheng's grandparents. Bai Ying and my senior brother are getting married. They're both my good friends, so I'll definitely give them double the wedding gift. I've also prepared a villa for them. Cheng's grandparents will move there too, so it won't be any different from now."

Xu Zhang sighed, "Did Zimu say something to you?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head, "I just think you two are getting old and should enjoy your retirement. The young couple can have a better relationship if they live on their own."

“We know you are filial. Your grandfather and I are very pleased that you gave us this house. However, Zimu is pregnant now. It would be wrong if we were to pass away.”

"Grandma, I know what you mean. I've already thought it through. We'll hire a nanny to take care of her. Maybe she'll be happy to do it herself. There are too many people in the family, and the house isn't big enough. Turning around might make things better. The villa over there is spacious, and she'll have more room to live, which will make her feel better."

Xu Zhang patted her hand, "Hey, godmother doesn't know what to say. Let us think about this some more. If we all move there, outsiders will definitely gossip. Your sister-in-law is pregnant now, and who knows what kind of rumors will spread."

“Godmother, I’ve discussed this with my sister-in-law. You two don’t need to discuss it anymore. As long as we live separately, the conflict will be resolved a lot. If she thinks one nanny isn’t enough, I’ll hire two for her. The other day, Grandma made a joke and Haidie had to explain it to her because of her expression. I still get angry when I think about it.”

Gu Changfeng sighed, "Sigh, different upbringings lead to different personalities. I used to think she was like you, with a cheerful personality. Who knew that she would overthink even a simple sentence, and the whole family would be on guard."

"Then let's not discuss it anymore. I'll go arrange the renovation in a bit."

Xu Zhang knew he couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
