"Explain yourself clearly, what do you mean?"
"Young Miss, I am the old man's man, I was twenty years ago, and I am now."
Entrusted by the old man and the old man Su, twenty years ago, the two old men sensed that something was wrong and handed over their open businesses, asking me to take the family fortune and go out to expand the business.
They believed that, given the young lady's personality, she certainly wouldn't be able to support a family once they were gone.
Your son-in-law's profession means he can't take care of the family. They originally wanted to leave you a way out, so they asked me to manage things first and save up some money for you. They planned to hand it over to you when you came of age.
I never expected things to suddenly turn out like this. During that time, we were forced to relocate, cut off all contact with this place, and all our businesses were disrupted and forced to move to the shadows.
As a result, this delay lasted for several years.
The business was only recently reorganized, and when I came back and asked, I found out that so many things had happened at home, and the old men were all gone.
Miss, you've gone to the countryside too...
Given the situation these past few years, and the fact that I wasn't comfortable with the original members of our family, I checked on everyone again and discovered that others were eyeing the Su family's possessions.
"Young lady, I'm sorry I came back late. Anyone dares to bully you like this."
After a long, stunned silence, it took me a while to process this news, and a vague memory of my childhood resurfaced in my mind.
"You mean, Grandpa told you to go out?"
"It wasn't just the old man, but also the old man Su; this was a result they came up with together."
"So why are you contacting me now? What happened?"
Since you were able to find this information, it's probably difficult for you to know my current situation, so just tell me directly.
"I don't dare to go too deep, but I can find out the general outline."
Those who were eyeing the Su family's possessions may be about to make a move. I wanted to inform the young lady that if you hear anything, don't take it seriously. The Su and Jian families' things aren't so easily obtained.
"Huh? What do you mean? Wasn't that the other day?"
"Young Miss,"
Jian Zhong's voice immediately turned colder, but not towards Jian Dan.
"Young lady, have you been hanging out with those single-minded people for too long that you've become unable to think clearly?"
You're overestimating people!
Your people left, and the next thing you knew, they were being protected. It was all done secretly, without your knowledge.
"What?"
To be honest, Jian Liye was unhappy about this. What were Jian Liye and Cheng Chao trying to achieve by working so hard in the capital for so long?
"So all our efforts were for nothing?"
Jian Zhong smiled slightly.
"It wasn't all for nothing. I heard that during that time, there was quite a bit of internal strife among them. The news from our people is that they seem to have lost something important. What was originally a very united group has now almost fallen apart."
But no matter which heroes are involved, if they're unhappy, I'd like to slap them twice.
A simple twitch at the corner of his mouth—no need for a hero—but judging by his thought process, he's quite similar to those two old men.
"So you're going to make a move?"
"Don't talk nonsense. We're just ordinary people. What can we do?"
Young lady, just remember this: I will deliver everything the old men left you to you without fail. As for what people outside are saying, don't believe it.
"Hey? No, you should tell me your plans so I can have an idea."
"Mother!"
"Hey, slow down! Don't cause any trouble."
The baby's giggling sound carried through the microphone, and the person on the other end shuddered.
"Miss, this is, this is..."
Simple and irritable.
"You're asking a question you already know the answer to. Didn't you investigate me? Why are you asking this kind of question?"
"Haha, hahahaha!"
The people over there must have been triggered by something; their emotions immediately became extremely agitated.
"The old man has a worthy successor, young lady! If the old man knew, they would be overjoyed."
No need for you, you don't need to worry about these things. I just want to confirm if it's you, and then know what to do and to what extent, so I'll have a clear understanding.
Young lady, you are the apple of your two grandfathers' eye. Just live your life to the fullest and do whatever makes you happy. The grandfathers want to give you the best of everything, and you have the confidence to do so.
After hesitating for a moment, just as he was about to hang up, Jian Zhong cautiously made a request.
"Miss, if there's a chance, could you... could you let us meet the young master as well?"
After the other end of the phone hung up, Jian Dan was stunned for a long time.
Where is this all?
What was discussed in that phone call?
It seems like I said something, but it also seems like I didn't say anything.
Jian Zhong? The capital?
What else was there?
"Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law?"
Seeing Jian Dan standing there dumbfounded, Qin Yi was also unsure of what was going on, so he cautiously asked...
"Sister-in-law? Yes, has something happened?"
Should I go and invite Brother Huai over?
"Huh? Oh, no need. I haven't figured it out myself yet. Let me think about it first."
Stepping out of the communications class, Jian Dan was still a bit dazed and confused. Why did it feel like there were always people suddenly appearing around her?
"Mommy, Mommy!"
"Hmm, kid, what's wrong?"
"Grandpa, oh Grandpa!"
"Grandpa? Where is he?"
The little one has already darted off on his short legs.
"Grandpa!"
The old man was talking to several retired veterans when, upon hearing the noise, Xiao Paodan grabbed his leg and pulled him back.
