Lan Xue had been feeling a bit uneasy since morning. When she first noticed that Wei Yuan was absent from school, she found it strange. Hadn't Wei Yuan, who had just returned to school after a month of absence, promised to try not to skip classes? Why was he missing again today?
Of course, when Liu Lei managed to reach Wei Yuan on the phone and learned that he was planning to take a leave of absence, Lan Xue felt relieved. However, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable until she suddenly received a call from the family butler during the second class, informing her that her grandfather had gone missing again.
When Lan Xue was very young, her parents died in a car accident, and she grew up under her grandfather's care. Her grandfather was an extraordinary person; shortly after the reform and opening-up began, he resigned from a job that outsiders considered secure and came alone to Jinghai City, a coastal city, starting from nothing and eventually founding the Blue Ocean Group in just over a decade.
However, in recent years, perhaps due to his advancing age, her grandfather seemed to have developed some mental issues, fluctuating between good and bad days. This made Lan Xue worry even while at school about whether he might wander off somewhere. When this call came in, Lan Xue felt even more unprepared.
After retiring, her grandfather's greatest hobby became wandering around the Antique Market. Usually, the family butler accompanied him everywhere, but this time he had gone out alone. Concerned that something might happen to him, Lan Xue hurriedly asked for leave from her teacher and rushed into her family's car.
When Lan Xue arrived at the street of antiques in the city with the family driver, not only did she find her grandfather but also unexpectedly spotted Wei Yuan. What was he doing here instead of school? Lan Xue was puzzled.
Coincidentally, she saw her grandfather chatting amiably with Wei Yuan, and she witnessed the entire process of Wei Yuan conning Ma Teng. To her surprise, her grandfather had joined in on the conning as well. If someone could make her grandfather dislike them so much, it was clear that Ma Teng must have reached an exceptionally low level of contemptibility.
However, Lan Xue found it strange that when her grandfather was with Wei Yuan, his logic seemed very normal; yet when he was with his own family, he appeared muddled and incoherent. Despite this inconsistency, seeing her grandfather getting along so well with Wei Yuan brought a hint of joy to Lan Xue's heart.
At that moment, as Lan Xue got out of the car and approached Wei Yuan, she noticed that Ma Teng had already left. Upon hearing about how Brother Zeng was struggling for his son's tuition fees and even selling his dignity in the process, Wei Yuan felt a change of heart towards him. Initially considering helping him out financially, she realized that after being humiliated by Ma Teng, Brother Zeng couldn't face Wei Yuan anymore and had sneaked away.
"Grandpa, why are you wandering around alone without anyone with you?" Lan Xue rushed over to her grandfather with concern.
At this moment, Wei Yuan unexpectedly noticed that just moments ago, the articulate and refined Grandpa Lan broke into a silly grin upon seeing his granddaughter!
Wei Yuan rubbed his eyes; upon closer inspection, it indeed looked like he was grinning foolishly. His acting skills were so impressive that it left people in awe as he chuckled, "It's okay; I have friends!"
Lan Xue anxiously asked, "Who is your friend?"
It seemed she misunderstood that someone intended to harm Grandpa Lan, and she quickly ran over to grab Wei Yuan and asked, "Wei Yuan, who was with my grandpa just now?"
"Grandpa Lan has been with me the whole time!"
Upon hearing Wei Yuan's explanation, Lan Xue finally felt relieved and prepared to formally introduce her grandfather to Wei Yuan: "Wei Yuan, this is my grandpa, Grandpa, this is my..."
Before Lan Xue could finish her sentence, Grandpa Lan interrupted, saying, "Hehe, I know! This is Xue's boyfriend, my grandson-in-law... he looks quite handsome!"
"Grandpa, he's not yet; don't say that." Lan Xue's face turned red upon hearing this.
Wei Yuan suddenly realized that this old man had just been mysterious, but now he was acting completely differently, seemingly trying to disguise himself.
When Yang Ying heard Wei Yuan refer to her as "my wife," she felt a sudden tension and her breathing became rapid. That term usually refers to one's own wife, right? Unfortunately, she was well aware that this was just Wei Yuan trying to bluff Ma Teng while expressing his nervousness about the bet.
At that moment, seeing Lan Xue arrive stirred an inexplicable feeling within her. She had met Lan Xue before; this pure and lovely girl seemed more suitable for Wei Yuan. She wasn't infatuated; it was just that their three coincidental encounters had created an illusion of fate regarding Wei Yuan. No matter how skilled or fierce a girl might be, she ultimately couldn't escape this kind of feminine mindset.
Hearing the term "grandson-in-law," Wei Yuan was completely taken aback. He then heard Yang Ying whispering beside him with a smile, "So you two have known each other for a long time; you hid it well enough to fool me!"
Yang Ying continued, "This kind of deep family drama isn't suitable for me; I think I'll take my leave now. Wishing you both sweet dreams without a trace."
After delivering this bold farewell line, Yang Ying vanished without a trace. Indeed, this fearless Mother Tyrannosaurus was elusive. Wei Yuan knew she wouldn't let him off so easily. To find a place to stay, even if she wasn't heading directly to the apartment he rented, she would at least be waiting at the shop where he had previously stored some things!
At this time, Wei Yuan got into the car of Lan Xue’s family. After Lan Xue’s explanation in the car, Wei Yuan realized that Grandpa Lan had handed over the power of speaking to Blue Ocean Group in the past few years. After giving birth to his second son, he began to become confused. Even when Blue Ocean Group encountered difficulties occasionally, he ignored them. The result was that he was addicted to Antique Market and often spent money on it. I bought a lot of fakes. After listening to Lan Xue's explanation, Wei Yuan was confused. If he really suffered from mental illness, is his previous identification of the Listening Wind Bottle reliable? Could it be that after spending so much time betting on Yang Ying, I really exchanged it for a bunch of crappy pieces? On this issue, Wei Yuan and Lan Xue maintain the same firm belief, firmly believing that Grandpa Lan will be fine... When the car stopped at the group of villas that Liu Haisheng had driven through before , Wei Yuan and Lan Xue helped the old man out of the car and walked into the big villa. Passing by Swimming Pool, a housekeeper immediately came up to greet him. At this time, as a guest, Wei Yuan received a warm reception. Obviously, those servants and housekeepers had never seen my sister bring a boy back home, and they immediately began to have wild imaginations about the relationship between the two. Li, Wei Yuan was sitting in the living room chatting with the elderly. Wei Yuan found that Grandpa Lan was very organized when talking, but occasionally he still had to pretend to be crazy and act stupid. It seemed that in front of Lan Xue and the housekeeper, Grandpa Lan was afraid that others would completely treat him as a normal person. , Wei Yuan has never been able to figure out why Grandpa Lan is like this. Could it be that someone is planning to murder him?
