Sheng Qian smiled when she saw his adorable expression: "Yes, Xiao Xi is the smartest! Mommy is going to see your great-grandfather first, so stay here and relax."
"oh!"
Long Lanxi slid down and obediently ran to play with Long Xiuyan and the others.
Greyley also had a son, who is over three years old and is exceptionally good-looking because he is of mixed race!
"Xiao Qian," Hou Guifang suddenly called Sheng Qian aside and whispered, "Grandpa had a cough a few days ago. Although we've had a doctor come to see him, I'm still a little worried."
He had suffered too many injuries when he was young, and now that he's old, all those ailments have come together at once. They're worried that the old man won't be able to handle it.
Sheng Qian nodded. "I'll take Grandpa's pulse later."
"Thank you for your help."
"It's what I should do."
Watching Sheng Qian walk towards the study, Lan Peizhi sighed, "It's all thanks to Xiao Qian at home."
“Yes,” Deng Zhiying added, “If it weren’t for Xiaoqian, Yunting and my second brother might have really been in grave danger back then.”
"It was Xiaoqian who stabilized the old man's condition; she's a hero in the family." The more Lan Peizhi thought about it, the more she felt she owed Sheng Qian something.
Especially since several members of her family had weddings, her situation when she married into the family was the most unique and easily subject to criticism from outsiders.
In short, Sheng Qian's marriage into the Long family in that way became a regret in the Long family's heart.
Jin Ruoxuan hugged her son and said, "The family has been good enough to Sheng Qian. If we do anything else, Sheng Qian will definitely overthink it."
"We still feel it's a pity."
Deng Zhiying glanced at Jin Ruoxuan but didn't say anything more.
Deng Zhiying isn't stupid; how could she not see that Jin Ruoxuan had some issues with Sheng Qian?
It's understandable that people feel unbalanced because everyone in the family favors Sheng Qian and gives her all the good things.
But Jin Ruoxuan didn't realize that compared to Sheng Qian's treatment, hers was no worse.
If the two were switched, Jin Ruoxuan would probably have even more objections.
Deng Zhiying didn't say anything because she was afraid of ruining the harmony of the family.
The old man is still alive; we can't let this family descend into chaos while he's still around.
Sheng Qian knocked on the door of Elder Long's study.
Elder Long let the man in.
When Elder Long, who was resting on the bench, saw Sheng Qian, he got up and Sheng Qian went over to help him.
"No need to help me, I'm not so old that I can't get up."
I heard you had a cough a few days ago?
Old Master Long glared: "Who's been too talkative again?"
"They're worried about your health, so to put everyone's minds at ease, I'll take your pulse?"
"Please sit down."
Sheng Qian sat down and took Elder Long's pulse.
After taking her pulse, Sheng Qian didn't find anything seriously wrong. She probably caught a chill a few days ago, but she felt better after taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor.
"Those things have all been taken care of."
"It's done."
"The people at sea have praised you highly for what you have done. Very good."
"Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa."
"I'm not just praising you, you did a great job, better than all the boys in the family."
Sheng Qian blushed a little from the compliments.
She's just greedy.
A few days ago, someone created a world ranking list, and she was clearly at the top of it.
She probably never imagined that she would suddenly be close to becoming the world's richest person.
Those assets that weren't included in the budget are simply untraceable by others.
If we were to combine the assets of all those countries, the figure would likely be staggering.
The special business Sheng Qian did was done behind everyone's back; only Long Yunting knew about it.
Her business has expanded almost entirely overseas, and she has started earning money abroad.
"But remember, don't cross the line. In the next year or two, keep your sharp edge to yourself; being too sharp is not a good thing."
Meeting the worried look in Grandpa Long's eyes, Sheng Qian nodded, "I won't do anything that crosses the line, Grandpa, you don't need to worry."
As for its sharpness.
Old Master Long is right; she needs to keep a low profile for the next year or two.
The target is too big and easy to hit.
Elder Long said slowly again, "You don't need to publicize your cooperation with the Haicheng Research Institute. I've already had people erase those traces outside."
Sheng Qian was taken aback, and said with shame, "It was my carelessness."
“With so many things to manage, there will always be times when you overlook something. Hongwen has already taken two steps up the ladder. Once he takes a few more steps up, some people in the capital might not be able to sit still. You should be prepared.”
Sheng Qian has been in frequent contact with Long Hongwen lately. He's been working on his training and attracting investment, which has involved her, and she's been helping him in any way she can.
Whenever Long Hongwen moved to a different place, Sheng Qian would meet with him.
The main business relationship is commercial cooperation.
Long Hongwen has a long road ahead of him, and one wrong step could implicate the entire Long family.
Therefore, Long Hongwen must proceed cautiously.
No matter the era, following Long Hongwen's path is always difficult.
Old Master Long is still respected in the ministry because he is still alive.
What about a hundred years from now?
The second generation held stable positions in various key roles within the ministry, but among the third generation, only Long Yunting was capable of handling things. Long Hongwen was still developing, and although his achievements were excellent, anyone could easily remove him from his position.
Therefore, before Long Hongwen has truly stabilized the situation, Elder Long absolutely cannot be allowed to get into trouble.
