Chapter 173: Exposed by Zhu Bocheng!
When Chi Shuyan heard Zhu Bocheng say “Zhenbai’s wife,” her right eyelid twitched. After listening to him, she felt helpless. What kind of introduction was this?
Before Zhu Bocheng’s grandpa could make things awkward with his reply, Chi Shuyan took the initiative to say, “Elder Zhou, h.e.l.lo, my name is Chi Shuyan. You can just call me Shuyan!”
Grandpa Zhou naturally knew Qi Zhenbai, and his relations.h.i.+p with the Qi family was quite good. After listening to his grandson, Grandpa Zhou looked at Qi Zhenbai in surprise. He chuckled and quipped, “Little Zhenbai, when did you marry? Why didn’t I hear about it from your grandpa? He didn’t give me a wedding invitation either. Why, now that this old man has retired, are you looking down on me?”
After he said that, Grandpa Zhou still thought very considerately of Chi Shuyan. He nodded cheerfully and praised, “Good taste. This child has clear eyes and full features. She’s a good child and a blessing!”
Grandpa Zhou truly wasn’t acting polite at all. He was a very frank person, and it was usually very difficult to get a word of praise out of him.
He used to be a bigshot in the capital, but he attached great importance to things like fate in the eyes. The more he looked at this child, the more he felt that she was worthy of Zhenbai. Looking at Zhenbai’s satisfied and happy appearance, he was very satisfied with this child.
A child who could capture Zhenbai’s attention naturally couldn’t be bad.
Elder Zhou was experienced and shrewd, but he still believed in Qi Zhenbai’s foresight.
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, Qi Zhenbai answered naturally, “Grandpa Zhou, when we register our marriage in the future, you will naturally get an invitation.” After speaking, Qi Zhenbai turned around and said to Chi Shuyan, “Call Grandpa Zhou!”
Chi Shuyan, who had a bellyful of words which she forced back: …
Elder Zhou’s eyes glowed more and more abnormally. It seemed that Zhenbai, this kid, was more than just satisfied with this child. It seemed that this kid from the Qi family was going to get married very soon. Elder Zhou had also watched Zhenbai grow up and long regarded this kid as his own grandson. Now, he was all smiles, and showed Chi Shuyan more affection.
In the end, under the pressure of the man next to her, Chi Shuyan spat out with a stiff face, “Grandpa Zhou!”
Grandpa Zhou was very satisfied. “Okay, okay, okay… Call me Grandpa Zhou from now on!”
Zhu Bocheng, who was treated as transparent, couldn’t help but interrupt. “Alright, Grandpa, when Zhenbai and Sister Shuyan get married, I’ll definitely let you know in advance! Don’t think too much, Sister Shuyan is extraordinarily good. I wanted to marry her at first, but someone threw a wrench in the works halfway.”
Zhenbai’s face turned cold. Seeing his grandpa look over curiously, Zhu Bocheng hurriedly explained, “Grandpa, I’m talking nonsense. Anyway, Sister Shuyan is absolutely worthy of Zhenbai.”
If they really had to compare who was worthy or not, he would still have to doubt Zhenbai a little.
After all, this good brother of his was always sticking to Sister Shuyan! If it wasn’t for that, how could Sister Shuyan have agreed to date him?
Grandpa Zhou was used to his grandson’s character and didn’t take his words seriously.
Zhu Bocheng beamed happily and suddenly said, “By the way, Grandpa, where’s Grandma? I haven’t seen her in a long time and I miss her so much! How’s she doing? Let Sister Shuyan take a good look at her!”
He now trusted Sister Shuyan more than whatever prestigious doctor. There was nothing she couldn’t resolve.
Grandpa Zhou didn’t think much of it and happily led them in with a smile.
In the bedroom on the first floor, Zhu Bocheng saw his grandma, who was rosy-cheeked and half-lying down. He had read the report which his grandpa had given to him, and even though he had already heard from his parents that his grandma was fine, he still practically jumped in excitement when he saw the diagnosis report. He was so excited that he completely forgot Zhenbai’s exhortation earlier to not reveal Sister Shuyan’s ident.i.ty. He rushed excitedly to Chi Shuyan and rejoiced. “Thank you so much, Sister Shuyan. If it wasn’t for your spirit rice, how could my grandma recover so quickly?!”
