Mu Wan hesitated for a mont, while the old man devised a sche, raising his hand to clutch at his chest.
"Oh dear... my chest hurts... hurts terribly... feels like a bronchial tube has snapped... life is just so hard... ohhh..."
Mu Wan’s expression changed. Seeing the old man in such a condition, she couldn’t help but speak with concern, "Grandpa, how are you? Please lie down... I’ll go get the doctor."
"No... if you don’t agree to my request, I won’t get up. I’ll kneel here forever... not see a doctor either. Without soone for Qin San, I feel a sorrow deeper than death."
Mu Wan: "..."
As Mu Wan hesitated, her eyes fell on the old man whose face had turned pale as he clutched his chest. She grew so anxious that sweat beaded on her back and her forehead was damp. After a long pause, she murmured in a hoarse voice, "Alright... Grandpa, I promise you..."
To give... herself and Qin Mu a chance.
The key was... to give herself a shot at this too.
If she didn’t try, wouldn’t she be letting down the unrequited love she had harbored for eight years?
Mu Wan clenched her small hands tightly... her beautiful eyes filled with resolve.
For the first ti... she could muster the courage... to proactively take action on sothing...
The old man’s face lit up with joy as he looked at the woman in front of him. A trace of approval flashed in his eyes.
This girl—he knew all along he hadn’t misjudged her.
And as the facts proved... he was indeed correct.
"Good! My granddaughter-in-law, co help up... My mind is finally at peace... Wonderful, truly wonderful."
Mu Wan blushed furiously at the old man’s casual use of the term ’granddaughter-in-law.’ This old man... just couldn’t hold back when he spoke.
Mu Wan carefully helped the old man sit back on the hospital bed, thoughtfully placed the removed needle aside, then pressed the call bell to summon a nurse to reinsert it.
"Grandpa, you can’t casually joke around with your health like this next ti..."
"You silly girl... still calling Grandpa? Start calling Grandpa-in-law!"
Mu Wan: "..."
So just like that... she agreed?
Mu Wan was a little dazed; she had originally co to subtly decline the marriage arrangent.
But unexpectedly, everything had taken a turn that overturned her world.
Mu Wan curled her lips into a shy smile and, feeling bashful, hesitated before softly saying, "Grandpa-in-law..."
The old man bead with delight at those words.
"Good, good, good... wonderful indeed..."
Qin Mu heard the call bell and assud sothing had happened to the old man. He entered the patient room, only to find the old man excitedly gripping Mu Wan’s small hand and refusing to let go.
"Mu Wan, my dear girl... after you marry Qin San, if he ever treats you poorly, make sure to tell . Grandpa-in-law will stand up for you... I’ll help you, not him."
"Um, thank you, Grandpa-in-law..."
Qin Mu: "..."
What’s going on?
Qin Mu narrowed his dark eyes slightly... his gaze sweeping over Mu Wan in confusion. Mu Wan kept her head lowered the entire ti, but she could feel his intense stare on her. Lifting her eyes, she t Qin Mu’s cold and piercing gaze, then quickly averted her eyes in discomfort.
She... had just confidently told this man that afternoon that this wouldn’t happen.
"Young Master Qin... I just..."
"Here’s what happened... Just now, Mu Wan was persuaded by ... Qin San, you should start preparing for tomorrow. Go register your marriage with Mu Wan... The wedding dress and gowns—I’ve already arranged for people to have them ready. You two, as the young couple, can check if there’s anything missing and buy it. After the wedding... the villa’s prepared. Both Qin Family’s place and the marital ho, you’ll have both options to live in."
