Chapter 45
Chapter 45 – Great Grandchild (1)
Sickness can come as quick and violent as a landslide on a mountain, but recovery takes a long time . This idiom was no exaggeration to the Xu family .
To the Xu household, the elder laying on the bed represented the mountain of their family .
Xu Baishan lived during a warring era, and he had made great achievements in the battlefield . Other elders from the same generation were now buried beneath the earth, and their contributions in their lifetime played a pivotal role in establis.h.i.+ng Z country .
People throughout Z country would have to show all due respect when meeting face to face with the Xu family .
Until 71 years old, Xu Baishan had enjoyed good health and his family paid close attention to his care .
But after all, the effects of aging could still be seen . The weather in June would go from cold mornings to unquenchable heat throughout the rest of the day . When Master Xu arose early that morning, he caught a cold and then suffered a high fever towards the evening .
When the fever struck, he wouldn’t stop talking about his favored grandchild, Mu Mingcheng .
Xu Chenghui, his grandson, immediately called for Mu Mingcheng to come immediately .
As Mu Mingcheng entered the room, his gaze swept on the crowd gathered around the bed and found that there were around ten people .
The mood was quite heavy and he frowned slightly .
Mrs . Xu quickly stood up and offered her seat . “Mingcheng, your grandfather is waiting for you . ”
Xu Baishan opened his eyes and angrily scolded, “You smelly boy, you’re just like your parents . Are you not contacting me anymore just because I’m old?”
Mu Mingcheng helped Mrs . Xu back to her seat as he replied with a laugh, “Grandfather, you said that you’ve yet to embrace a great grandson . How can you be old?”
Mu Mingcheng helped Mrs . Xu back to her seat as he replied with a laugh, “Grandfather, you said that you’ve yet to embrace a great grandson . How can you be old?”
“That’s because none of you boys have married yet . How could I possibly have great grandchildren?”
Xu Baishan had two sons, and both sons brought forth several grandchildren . However, the eldest of the grandchildren, Xu Chenghui, had yet to be married .
Right now, the Xu family did not have a fourth generation .
However, there was still much compet.i.tion between the second and third generations, so Master Xu was in no hurry . Most of his children and grandchildren had average qualifications . If the Xu family desired to maintain its glorious status, it must strive to constantly cultivate the new generation .
Xu Baishan new in his heart that his current disease was quite serious, but that didn’t matter . He could live well for at least another twenty years, so there would be no problems in raising a good successor .
The premise is that a grandson in his family needs to get married and have children .
Although Mu Mingcheng wasn’t surnamed Xu, unfortunately his family didn’t have an elder for the Mu family . So Master Xu thought it would be appropriate to take on the responsibility of looking after this grandson of his .

Xu Chenghui solemnly looked at his grandfather and said with resolve, “Grandpa, me and my brothers are planning on starting a business before focusing on raising a family . Mingcheng is already successful in his career but there is no woman beside him . You might as well encourage him . ”
“Don’t worry about it Grandpa, I already have a girlfriend,” Mu Mincheng said with a slight smile as he dropped this unexpected bomb on his family .
“Cousin has a girlfriend? Since when?” A few of the Xu family members exclaimed in shock .
In the past, none of them dared to converse with Mu Mingcheng, since he occasionally leaked out a murderous aura that caused them to back off in fright . But these past two years, ever since this man retired from the military and went into business, he seemed a lot more calm and they finally had the courage to approach him .
“Coughs, Just recently . ” Mu Mingcheng seemed slightly embarra.s.sed .
Xu Chenghui couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ver as he looked up at his cousin in surprise . ‘Is this tender love-struck man the same Mu Mingcheng that I know?’
Meanwhile, Xu Baishan who was planning to vent his anger regardless of this grandson’s excuses, was completely caught by surprise this time .

“That’s good news! When are you going to bring her here and give me a healthy grandchild for me to play with?”
Mu Mingcheng: … . Am I supposed to have a child just so you can play with one?
However, when he thought of having a chubby, soft child with Gu Jin—
Mu Mingcheng couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ver .
He quickly replied, “We’re in no hurry, it’s just a trial relations.h.i.+p . If we’re not suitable for each other, we’ll just go our separate ways . ”
