"Ye Cheng, I'm a little worried that they will?”
Huang Huili held Ye Cheng's arm and said in a low voice.
She knew what kind of personality Zhao Ji and the other descendants of the big families had. They would definitely take revenge after suffering such a huge loss today.
"Don't worry, I'll handle it.”
Ye Cheng laughed.
Huang Huili could only nod when she saw Ye Cheng's confidence. She could only take things one step at a time.
Soon, Ye Cheng and Huang Huili entered the old house where the Great Grandfather lived.
This old house was obviously very old and full of historical aura. It was very rare to see it in Xiangjiang City, which was full of high-rise buildings and almost developed to the extreme.
As the Grand Elder was too old and didn't have much energy, it was impossible for all the guests to pay their respects.
Other than a few important guests, only members of the Xu family or in-laws of the Xu family could enter.
Huang Huili was the great-granddaughter of the old man, so she was naturally qualified to enter.
As for Ye Cheng, he was Huang Huili's boyfriend.
There were only a few people inside. The old man was sitting in a chair. His beard and hair were white, and his face was full of age spots. However, he was still in good spirits.
"Grand Master, I'm Huili. I wish you happiness like the East Sea and longevity like the South Mountain.”
Huang Huili quickly walked over and squatted in front of Grandpa Sheng.
"Oh, it's Huili. You haven't come to see me for a while.”
Grand Elder Xu had a good memory.
After all, he had a lot of children and grandchildren, and they were very prosperous. It was a super large family with a large population.
"By the way, where's Little Ji? When are you getting married? The great master is still waiting to hold his great-great-grandson.”
Grand Elder Xu looked around and asked.
"Great Master, this is Ye Cheng, my boyfriend.”
Huang Huili quickly said.
"Ye Cheng greets grand master. I wish grand master good health and happiness. This is a small token from this junior.”
Ye Cheng stepped forward and said respectfully.
Then, he took out a very ordinary jade pendant and placed it in Grand Elder Xu's palm.
"Ye City?"
Grand Elder Xu was stunned for a moment, and his gaze fell on the jade pendant in his palm.
It was a very ordinary piece of jade. Its color was not particularly good and it looked like it had been around for some time.
There were two rough words on it-Zi Yu.
The expressions of the people beside her changed slightly. They were all members of the Xu family. Naturally, they hoped that Huang Huili would marry Zhao Ji. This would be very beneficial to the Xu family.
But now, Huang Huili had brought everyone else to Great-Grandfather.
"Oh, Ye Cheng, you're so thoughtful. Not bad, you look quite energetic. Not bad.”
Grand Elder Xu looked at the jade pendant in his hand for a long time, as if he was in a daze. After a long time, he came back to his senses. Then, he raised his head and looked at Ye Cheng with his turbid eyes for a moment before revealing a smile.
When Huang Huili saw this scene, she couldn't help but secretly heave a sigh of relief. Seeing that Grand Master didn't object to anything, this round was considered over.
Without saying much, the two of them left the old house.
......
"Old Master, look at Huili. She's very stubborn and doesn't listen to you. She brought someone with unknown origins over. Why didn't you say anything about her just now?”
In the old house, a woman in her fifties or sixties couldn't help but say.
She knew that the Great Grandfather had taken a liking to Zhao Ji and was very satisfied with him. Why did he change his mind now?
"I'm already so old, yet you still want me to care about this kind of thing? It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. Since Huili likes it, then let her be. Don't tell me these things in the future. I'm tired too.”
Grand Elder Xu waved his hand and leaned back in his armchair. He didn't say anything and gradually closed his eyes, seemingly tired.
However, his hands were tightly holding the jade pendant that Ye Cheng had given him. His fingers were fumbling around as if he had entered a certain memory scene.
The few people present looked at each other and saw helplessness.
....
"Ye Cheng, the old man is really strange today. I thought he would make things difficult for you.”
Huang Huili felt like she was dreaming.
Because she understood the Grand Master's personality.
"Perhaps, Grand Master and I have a good eye for each other.”
Ye Cheng laughed.
Naturally, it was impossible for him to obtain the approval of Grand Elder Xu so easily.
Under normal circumstances, with Grand Elder Xu's temper, it would be good enough if he did not chase him out.
But he had the initiative.
Coincidentally, he found an extremely important clue in the information he received in the next twenty-four hours.
On the day of the 100th birthday banquet, Zhao Ji presented this jade pendant as a gift.
According to Grand Elder Xu's mental recollection, this jade pendant seemed ordinary, but it was extremely important to Grand Elder Xu because it was a token of love between Grand Elder Xu and his first girlfriend. Unfortunately, Grand Elder Xu's father broke them up.
Grand Elder Xu couldn't withstand the pressure and married the daughter of a famous family. From then on, the Xu family began to prosper and had the current prosperity of the Xu family.
However, Grand Elder Xu's first girlfriend couldn't take such a blow and jumped into the river with the jade pendant.
Grand Elder Xu had always been brooding over this matter and had searched for the whereabouts of this jade pendant countless times.
Zhao Ji didn't know where he got the clue to this jade pendant, but he finally found it a few days before the 100th birthday banquet.
Unfortunately, Zhao Ji didn't expect that Ye Cheng would know the location of the jade pendant in advance.
Sure enough, when Grand Elder Xu saw this jade pendant, his impression of Ye City became better.
More importantly, this jade pendant reminded him of his first love.
What happened between Ye Cheng and Huili now was the same as what happened between her and her first girlfriend back then.
Because of this, he didn't stop them and instead acknowledged Ye Cheng.
