Chapter 486: Meet Old Su!

~7 min read 1,352 words

Ten billion!

It actually arrived in the account so smoothly!

Su Laotai even doubted her eyesight; she took off her presbyopic glasses, wiped them, put them back on, and stared at the phone screen several times.

After confirming the amount was correct…

Su Laotai's hand began to tremble, not from excitement, but from shock.

She raised her head, looking at Jiang Feng, her eyes full of shock.

There was also a hint of indescribable unease.

Just who is Jiang Feng?

How could he so easily mobilize such a huge amount of funds?

She suddenly realized she might have misjudged him from the start.

This young man is certainly not just a small doctor who broke into the medical hall.

His background might be deeper and more terrifying than Xu Fu's.

Before Su Laotai could react, Jiang Feng took out a document from his pocket, placed it on the coffee table, and pushed it toward her.

It was a share transfer agreement, already stamped with Su Xueyan's private seal.

Jiang Feng looked at Su Laotai and gave a slight smile.

"My money has arrived; please, Grandma, fulfill your promise."

Su Laotai looked at those few thin sheets of paper and suddenly felt a bit of regret.

She didn't know how to describe this feeling, as if she had made the wrong choice.

Ten billion, she had obtained it.

But her heart felt empty, as if she had lost something.

Most importantly, at this moment she looked at her granddaughter and saw Su Xueyan staring at her, with no emotion left in her eyes.

No anger, no resentment.

Only calm, a calm that made one's heart turn cold.

That gaze was like looking at a stranger.

Su Laotai's heart clenched tightly.

She suddenly realized she might truly be about to lose this granddaughter.

Su Laotai's eye sockets were slightly red, her lips trembling, wanting to say something.

But she couldn't open her mouth.

Because she knew these words would be meaningless if spoken.

A belated apology is cheaper than grass.

Su Laotai let out a long sigh.

She picked up the pen, her hand still shaking, and signed her name on the agreement stroke by stroke.

After signing the last character, Su Laotai put down the pen, her whole body feeling drained, instantly aging many years.

She raised her head, glanced at Su Xueyan, opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

Then she leaned on her crutch, slowly stood up, and walked upstairs alone.

Her back view looked desolate; her spine wasn't as straight as before, and her steps were a bit unsteady.

Although she had obtained ten billion, for some reason she always felt she had done something wrong.

Su Laotai's silhouette disappeared at the stairwell, and the sound of a door closing came from upstairs.

The living room grew quiet.

Su Jianlong and Su Jiancheng sat nearby, both of their faces grim.

They watched Su Laotai go upstairs, then looked at the signed share transfer agreement on the coffee table, their eyes full of envy and unwillingness.

Su Group's thirty percent shares, just given to Su Xueyan like that?

That's not a small amount; it's assets worth tens of billions.

But they dared not say anything.

Even Su Laotai has conceded; what are they?

Su Jianlong stood up, gave a dry cough, and squeezed out an awkward smile.

"Well... Xueyan, since it's like this, we'll be leaving first."

Su Shian lay on the ground, his face swollen like a pig's head, still muttering indistinctly.

Su Jiancheng bent down, dragged Su Shian up, and supported him as they walked out.

Su Jianlong followed behind, the two of them slinking out the door, not daring to look back.

The three got into the car, the engine started, and they quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

Finally, the living room fell completely silent, leaving only Jiang Feng and Su Xueyan.

Jiang Feng sat on the sofa, Su Xueyan sitting beside him.

On the coffee table lay the signed share transfer agreement, plus the sheet of paper Su Laotai left with the account written on it.

Jiang Feng turned his head, looked at Su Xueyan, and spoke.

"I hope you don't blame me for being so direct."

His voice was soft, with a hint of caution.

"I just hope..."

Before Jiang Feng could finish, Su Xueyan interrupted him.

"I know what you're thinking."

Her voice was very calm, but her eye sockets were slightly red.

Su Xueyan raised her head, looked upstairs, her expression somewhat dazed.

"Grandma's current situation indeed does not suit her holding the company's shares anymore."

She paused, then continued speaking.

"She has been abroad all these years, unaware of domestic conditions, unfamiliar with the company's business. If she insists on interfering in the company's affairs, it will only throw the company into chaos."

Su Xueyan's voice was somewhat low.

"I also don't want her to become a burden to the company."

She said, turning her head to look at Jiang Feng, her eyes full of gratitude and determination.

"Jiang Feng, thank you."

Her voice was very sincere.

"If it weren't for you, Grandma wouldn't have yielded so easily."

Jiang Feng looked at her, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and gave a carefree smile.

"What's there to thank me for?"

He paused, suddenly remembering something, and said.

"By the way, is Grandfather going to be discharged?"

Su Xueyan nodded.

"Yes, this afternoon."

Jiang Feng said.

"This afternoon I'll accompany you to pick him up."

Su Xueyan looked at him, a warmth rose in her heart, and she nodded.

"Okay."

As they spoke, holding hands, they only felt their hearts grow closer.

Sunshine from outside the Window streamed in, bathing the two in warmth.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was afternoon.

Jiang Feng and Su Xueyan simply packed up, preparing to go out.

Grandma Su stayed upstairs the whole time, not coming down.

Su Xueyan stood at the stairwell, glanced upstairs, hesitated a moment, but still did not go up.

Jiang Feng walked over and gently took her hand.

"Let's go, Grandfather is still waiting."

Su Xueyan nodded, turned and followed Jiang Feng out the door.

Ma Jian had already driven and was waiting at the entrance; seeing the two come out, he quickly opened the car door.

"Jiang Ge, sister-in-law, get in."

The two got in the car, Ma Jian started the engine and drove toward the city hospital.

The car traveled along the streets, and half an hour later arrived at Jiangcheng First People's Hospital.

Opening the ward door, Old Master Su was sitting by the bed, holding a newspaper, his spirits looking much better than before.

Seeing Su Xueyan enter, Old Master Su put down the newspaper and smiled.

"Xue Yan has come?"

Su Xueyan walked over, sat beside her grandfather, and took his hand.

"Grandfather, you look in great shape today."

Old Master Su said with a hearty laugh.

"Of course, being discharged today puts me in a good mood."

His gaze swept past Su Xueyan and saw Jiang Feng standing at the doorway, his smile widening.

"Jiang Feng? You came too! My old bones owe much to you..."

The nurse came in to help Old Master Su with discharge formalities and gave a few reminders.

Su Xueyan noted everything down, then helped her grandfather pack his belongings.

Actually there wasn't much to pack, just a few changes of clothes and some daily necessities.

Ma Jian voluntarily took the items and carried them out.

Old Master Su rose from the bed, his back straight as a rod, full of energy.

But just then, a figure stepped in front of the four of them.

Grandma Su leaned on a crutch, standing at the inpatient department's entrance.

She wore a dark-colored cheongsam, her hair neatly combed, light makeup on her face, looking dignified and proper.

But her complexion was somewhat pale, her eye sockets slightly reddened.

She looked at Old Master Su, her eyes holding a hint of complex emotion.

Old Master Su also looked at her.

Their gazes met in midair…
