So I'll feel much more at ease now that he's gone.
"Grandpa, don't you want to raise another Long Yunting by holding your great-grandson? Without your guidance, the family will just be left to its own devices."
When Jin Ruoxuan's unborn child was mentioned, Elder Long smiled with anticipation, but not as excited as one might expect. "One Yunting is enough; there can't be a second one."
"What about Yunting and my child? Grandpa doesn't expect him to grow into a great man anymore? If we leave him to raise by Yunting and me, he can do whatever he wants. We might even ruin him if we don't know how to raise him."
Old Master Long suddenly looked at Sheng Qian, and the light in his eyes proved that he was still looking forward to her and Long Yunting's child.
Sheng Qian smiled and said, "It's been three months already."
Old Master Long's eyes widened. "Really!"
Sheng Qian nodded.
"Great! Great! This is double happiness!"
"I originally intended to let Yunting know first before coming back to tell the family, but now Grandpa is the first to know!"
Old Master Long laughed so hard his eyes almost disappeared, the usually serious old man becoming exceptionally loving: "Then he must be well cared for, he can't run around anymore, he should be cared for in the capital."
Seeing how eager Elder Long was to see the child, Sheng Qian breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Just now, she thought that Elder Long would arrange everything and then leave.
It seems that he still has high hopes for his great-grandson. With anticipation, he won't think about other things.
"I will be staying in the capital for a while to wait for Yunting to return, but I have to keep this from my family for now."
"Leave other people in the open? That won't do."
"Just consider it as me wanting Yunting to be the second to know, Grandpa, please grant my wish this once."
Old Master Long looked at Sheng Qian and sighed, "I understand, but this child's nutrition cannot be neglected... Grandpa is still waiting to hold his chubby great-grandson!"
I will take good care of him!
The old man and the young man sat in the living room and started talking about the child's food, clothing, and shelter. The old man even planned out the next stage of his upbringing.
Regardless of whether the child likes it or not, Sheng Qian will make those arrangements. Early training is especially important for a child's health, and how he chooses his own path when he grows up is up to him.
Xu Guangqian had originally planned to stay at the Long family's house for dinner, but he called Sheng Qian and said that a research project had been successful and asked her to come over and take a look.
Sheng Qian knew that Xu Guangqian's call must be about something important, so she left before her family returned.
Elder Long almost sent a team to protect her, which made Sheng Qian both amused and exasperated.
Sheng Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief after managing to refuse.
Elder Long personally escorted Sheng Qian to the car and only felt at ease after watching her drive away steadily.
The smile on Old Man Long's face lingered for a long time as he stood outside the door, much to the amazement of the guards.
Old Master Long was known for his strictness, but I had never seen him smile like that before.
Today has truly broadened my horizons.
Look, he even personally escorted the second young mistress out.
His status is obvious at a glance!
When Sheng Qian mentioned those words, Elder Long knew that Sheng Qian's intention was to worry that everyone would favor her and ignore Jin Ruoxuan.
It's understandable that people would side with Long Yunting because they feel indebted to her.
If Sheng Qian could think of this, then Elder Long certainly could too.
Old Master Long paced back and forth for a while with his hands behind his back before turning around and returning to the courtyard. He then instructed his guards to prepare some children's clothes.
No one else was eavesdropping on their conversation in the living room at the time. Even the guard who picked up the conversation assumed it was for Jin Ruoxuan's child and asked in confusion, "Elder Long, didn't you already instruct people to prepare this? Do you need to prepare it again?"
"Just prepare what I tell you to prepare, don't ask any more questions."
"yes."
The guards dared not say anything and hurried off to prepare.
Old Master Long happily returned to his study, where he wrote and drew pictures, all of which were plans for the upbringing of his great-grandson.
Compared to Long Yunting's previous works, what Mr. Long has written now is a true example of cultivating interest.
He could not allow his great-grandson to follow in Long Yunting's footsteps.
He didn't tell Sheng Qian any of this.
Lan Peizhi and the others returned home together, just in time for dinner.
They didn't leave Old Man Long alone at home to eat cold food, so those who could come back did.
Especially in the last month or two, I've noticed that Elder Long's mental state is getting worse and worse, and even Long Xingzhou has been turning down some social engagements to go home.
It's so that I can spend more time with the elderly.
Besides Long Hongwen, Long Yucheng and Long Bai'an also started leaving home to do research. Long Yucheng is an aerospace engineer, and he will spend most of his time on this in the future, so he will have very little time to come back.
The only advantage is that Long Yucheng and Long Bai'an's research is all within the capital, so they can go home whenever they have free time.
Long Hongwen was sent down to the grassroots level for training, and he rarely got to go home for several years.
"Dad," Lan Peizhi said, exchanging glances with the others behind her as she saw Old Master Long looking so energetic.
Before leaving home today, Old Long looked rather listless, and they were quite worried.
Why did the old man change so much after just one trip out?
Is there anything good happening at home?
