Just as Li Jin was busily preparing for her second store, Yu Zhenzhen told her that Yu Wan was getting married!
Li Jin didn't show much surprise at the news. After all, Yu Wan was already 23 years old, and getting married at that age was perfectly normal. Moreover, the man was several years older than her, so he must have been eager to settle down and start a family long ago.
As far as Li Jin knew, Yu Wan's fiancé was Lin Zhiheng, the second son of the third branch of the Lin family in Beijing. He was rumored to be the head of a department at the Beijing Meteorological Bureau, a stable job with a considerable income. However, Yu Wan wasn't initially satisfied with the marriage, and had even bluntly stated that Lin Zhiheng's job had no future.
Such remarks naturally displeased Old Master Yu, who severely reprimanded Yu Wan. Although Yu Wan was somewhat unwilling, she ultimately had no choice but to nod and agree to the marriage in the face of the old man's authority.
Li Jin secretly thought that perhaps Yu Wan would be busy with her new life after getting married and wouldn't have time to bother her anymore. Although Li Jin wasn't afraid of Yu Wan, she knew that Old Master Yu was getting old and what he disliked most was fighting and conflict among the younger generation.
Yu Wan's upcoming wedding did not dampen Li Jin's enthusiasm for preparing her second shop! This time, Li Yanjun found the shop for her again, and Li Jin quickly negotiated the price with the landlord and signed the contract. She planned to decorate the shop in a style similar to the first shop, but with some unique touches to attract more customers.
Just as Li Jin was busy and overwhelmed with the renovation of the new store, Yu Zhenzhen suddenly appeared in front of him and told him anxiously that Grandpa Yu had fallen ill and refused to go to the hospital, so he could only come here to find Li Jin!
Upon hearing the news, Li Jin's heart tightened, and she felt extremely worried about Old Master Yu's condition. She didn't even have time to change her clothes before hurriedly following Yu Zhenzhen into the car.
As the car sped along the road, Li Jin's mood grew increasingly heavy. Suddenly, as if remembering something, she turned to Yu Zhenzhen and asked, "When I went back last time, I checked Grandpa's pulse, and he was perfectly healthy. How come he suddenly fell ill in just three days?"
Yu Zhenzhen rubbed her temples, looking exhausted, and replied, "It's all because of that girl Yu Wan! I don't know what she was thinking, turning down such a good marriage opportunity to be with a scoundrel!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jin was quite surprised and quickly asked, "Ah... hanging out with thugs? What do you mean by that?"
That girl actually brought a strange boy home today, insisting that he was her chosen partner and that she was adamant about breaking off the engagement with the Lin family. Your grandfather, seeing this, was naturally angry and scolded her a few times. But who would have thought that the girl not only showed no remorse, but instead, without a word, grabbed the boy and stormed off, not even looking back.
Your grandfather was furious; he didn't even eat lunch and just sat in his room sulking. Sister Mei, seeing the situation was getting out of hand, quickly called me. I panicked too and immediately dropped everything to rush home. When I got home, I wanted to take him to the hospital, but he absolutely refused. I had no choice but to come find you.
Upon arriving at the Yu family home, I went straight to the old man's room. Pushing open the door, I saw an unusually heavy atmosphere; everyone in the Yu family was gathered around the bed, their faces etched with anxiety and worry. I quickly walked to the bedside, bent down, and carefully took the old man's pulse.
