Chapter 278

~7 min read 1,383 words

Song Rongyu couldn't quite understand the reverence his grandfather had for Ye Chen.

Old Master Song regarded Ye Chen as a god. The reason was similar to Shi Tianqi's. Both of them were old men in their twilight years. The older they got, the more they knew their destiny, and the more they feared their destiny. To put it bluntly, they were afraid of death.

However, Song Rongyu was not yet thirty this year. If someone told him that someone could let him live five more years in the future, he might not care at all. But for an old man in his twilight years, if someone could let him live five more years, that was a true god in his eyes, comparable to a living Bodhisattva.

Song Wanting could more or less understand her grandfather's psychological thoughts. After all, unlike Song Rongyu, she also had a divine medicine gifted by Ye Chen. That divine medicine had always been hidden in her car by herself, and except for herself and Ye Chen, no one knew.

With that medicine, Song Wanting felt an unprecedented sense of security, because she knew that if she encountered any accident, as long as this medicine was in her hand, she would have a chance to turn the tide and survive.

This kind of opportunity, just telling others, no one thinks it's anything amazing. That's because they know that such an opportunity cannot have anything to do with them.

Song Rongyu was the same.

He knew that Ye Chen's divine medicine was precious. If he could get one, he would definitely use it to curry favor with his grandfather, and then strive to make his grandfather look at him more highly. Maybe in the future, he could inherit more assets from the Song family. He wouldn't be like Song Wanting, keeping the medicine in her own hands.

It wasn't that Song Wanting wasn't filial to her grandfather. Most of the time she felt that this medicine represented Ye Chen's concern for her.

Ye Chen definitely hoped that she would keep this medicine in her hands, so deep in her heart, she didn't want to live up to Ye Chen's hope for her, and even less did she want to use the things Ye Chen gave her to win her grandfather's appreciation.

At this moment, Old Master Song suddenly remembered something and blurted out, "By the way, Rongyu, Wanting, if you two have nothing to do after eating later, go to the Qingshan Mental Hospital together."

"Qingshan Mental Hospital?!" Song Rongyu asked in surprise, "Grandfather, why are we going there? Is there something wrong?"

Old Master Song said, "A descendant of the Wu family from Su Hang has come to Jin Ling. I heard that a junior in their family had some trouble, so they rushed over urgently."

As he spoke, Old Master Song added, "The one who came is the eldest son of the Wu family, Wu Donghai, who is of the same generation as your father. But your father is not in Jin Ling now. As his elder, it is not appropriate for me to go over, so you and Wanting should go and visit. After all, our two families have always had a good relationship."

Song Rongyu nodded and suddenly realized, "I remember now. That kid on the short video platform a while ago who was crazy and snatching shit to eat everywhere, that seems to be a junior of the Wu family, right?"

"Oh brother..." Song Wanting put down her chopsticks and said helplessly, "We are still eating, why do you have to talk about those disgusting things..."

Song Rongyu laughed and said, "Sorry, sorry, just a slip of the tongue."

Old Master Song had also seen that video, and his expression suddenly became a bit disgusted, so he also put down his chopsticks and said, "I heard that the junior of the Wu family has been in Qingshan Mental Hospital for the past two days, so you go and greet them. Mainly to say hello to Wu Donghai, tell him your father is not in Jin Ling, so he cannot come to visit, ask him not to take offense, and by the way, say hello to their old master for me."

"Okay, Grandfather." Song Rongyu nodded hurriedly.

The Wu family of Su Hang is the number one family in Jiangnan, and their strength is a head higher than the Song family. The Song family can rank in the top five in Jiangnan, but cannot enter the top three.

The top families like these actually have very close interactions and connections. Generally, whoever arrives at their home court, the host will also entertain them with all their heart to show sincerity.

Song Wanting asked at this time, "Grandfather, should we bring any gifts?"

Old Master Song said, "A few years ago, someone gave me a piece of cold jade, which has the effect of calming the mind. You take it and give it to Wu Donghai, just say it's for the sick junior in their family. The effect shouldn't be great, but it's better than nothing."

Song Wanting nodded and said, "Okay, Grandfather, I know."

At this time, Old Master Song stood up and said to Song Wanting, "Wanting, come with me."

"Okay, Grandfather." Song Wanting didn't know why, so she hurriedly got up and followed her grandfather to his study.

In the study, Old Master Song sat tremblingly on the rosewood chair and asked Song Wanting, "Wanting, I ask you, how is your progress with Master Ye recently?"

As soon as Song Wanting heard this, her face turned red, and she said, "Grandfather, I... I... that..."

Old Master Song laughed, "You child, what are you embarrassed about? Just say whatever you have to say!"

Song Wanting said awkwardly, "Grandfather, actually Master Ye is very busy recently, we almost have no chance to meet..."

Old Master Song's expression was a bit disappointed, and he said, "Wanting, you can't just drag it out like this! You are still young, but grandfather is already on the verge of death. You can wait, but grandfather can't wait for a few years..."

As he spoke, Old Master Song hurriedly added, "Wanting, grandfather saying this is not to moral-kidnap you, nor is it to force you to be with Master Ye. Mainly, grandfather can also see that you truly like Master Ye in your heart, right?"

Song Wanting nodded gently, her face burning red.

For Ye Chen, she was really becoming more and more enamored.

A strong woman like her likes capable men the most. The more capable the man, the more charming she feels he is.

So, her being enamored with Ye Chen really had no suspense, it was simply inevitable.

Old Master Song sighed lightly and said, "The only pity is that Master Ye got married too early. However, in modern society, everyone takes these things very lightly. For a man, a second marriage is nothing at all, and a third marriage is not a big deal either. So, you don't have to care about a man having been married, don't have to care about who his first wife was. You just need to know that what you have to do is to keep a good man by your side forever. Even if he has been married ten times, as long as he can stay by your side, it is more important than anything else."

Song Wanting nodded slightly and said piously, "Grandfather, I understand what you said, but I can't chase Master Ye too tightly, fearing that he will have resentment towards me because of this, because I heard that Master Ye is very good to his wife."

"Hmm." Old Master Song agreed, "In this case, your steady and steady, step-by-step, and dark-crossing-Chencang approach is not wrong."

As he spoke, Old Master Song suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly, "By the way, it's my eightieth birthday in a few days. You should invite Master Ye to attend the birthday banquet later. Just take this opportunity to meet him and enhance your relationship."

Song Wanting said hurriedly, "Okay, Grandfather, I know."

"Hmm." Old Master Song nodded and said, "Alright, it's getting late. You go with Rongyu to Qingshan Mental Hospital to see that junior of the Wu family first!"
