Upon seeing Wang Shouzhe, he was initially stunned, but then he imdiately rushed over excitedly: "Fuheng greets Great-Grandfather."
Even though Great-Grandfather was dressed modestly and seed to have put on so makeup, making him look quite different from his usual majestic appearance, this was still his most revered Great-Grandfather, Wang Fuheng, even if he turned to ash... uh, ptoo, ptoo, ptoo~ How inauspicious, how inauspicious.
"What?"
Both Wang Guilan and Wang Jinyu, the aunt and niece, were dumbfounded.
Great-Grandfather? Could he have mistaken soone else?
The surrounding onlookers were even more at a loss, not knowing what to do, Great-Grandfather? Could this young man actually be a senior mber of the Wang family?
"Fuheng." Wang Shouzhe waved his hand to stop Wang Fuheng from speaking further, "This is not the place to talk."
"Yes, yes."
Wang Fuheng hurriedly led Wang Shouzhe and Cai Youdao to the VIP cabin, not forgetting to signal his daughter and granddaughter to follow with a look.
Soon, the group arrived at the VIP cabin.
The environnt in the VIP cabin was very nice, and it was also equipped with a conference room.
Wang Fuheng directly led everyone into the conference room.
Once in the conference room, Wang Fuheng put on a stern face and imdiately said to the two girls: "Guilan, Jinyu, quickly greet Great-Grandfather and apologize to him."
The two girls were shocked into action, quickly bowing in salute: "Guilan/Jinyu greets Great-Grandfather. We were previously disrespectful, please punish us, Great-Grandfather."
"No need for formalities." Wang Shouzhe smiled as he waved his hand, "I’ve been away from ho for too long this ti, so it’s normal that so of the younger family mbers haven’t seen and don’t recognize . How could I bla you?"
"Thank you, Great-Grandfather."
The two girls were greatly relieved, then couldn’t help but sneak another glance at Great-Grandfather, feeling even more that he was unfathomable, and seemingly even more handso.
"What are you standing around for? Quickly serve the tea." Wang Fuheng scolded them again.
The two girls quickly scrambled to pour tea and serve water for Wang Shouzhe, also serving a cup to the rather wretched-looking old man.
"Fuheng." Wang Shouzhe asked leisurely while sipping tea, "I heard from Jinyu you went to the Immortal Dynasty for a matchmaking event for Guilan?"
For Wang Fuheng, his sixth-generation grandson, Wang Shouzhe was quite fond of him too.
Though Fuheng wasn’t as dazzling as Fugui, he was excellent in many aspects, doing things in a fair and peaceful manner, reminiscent of Zong’an’s stable and ticulous style. He resembled a more steadfast family inheritor than Fugui.
He had always worked at the Changning United Headquarters, and it seed that he was currently serving as a vice-president, responsible for a large range of operations.
"Replying to Great-Grandfather." Wang Fuheng explained with a bow, "The trip to the Immortal Dynasty was mainly to inspect the Changning United Headquarters’ branch in the Immortal Dynasty and to discuss so business with the Immortal Soldier Departnt and various families. Additionally, I escorted Guilan, Jinyu, and Guilan’s mother to visit their relatives."
"As for matchmaking, it’s not a serious matchmaking event. It’s just to expose Guilan to outstanding young people from various families, allowing her to participate in activities and not stay ho all day reading literary novels and watching art movies."
"Of course, if Guilan finds soone she genuinely likes, a marriage wouldn’t be out of the question."
Fuheng’s wife was the eldest daughter of the Wu Family of the Cold Moon, so Guilan was half-blooded from the Wu Family. And Jinyu’s mother was a direct descendant of the Cold Moon Jiang Clan, so visiting her family in the Immortal Dynasty was also included in the trip.
"That makes sense."
Wang Shouzhe nodded slightly, then said to Guilan: "Guilan, when interacting with boys, don’t hold preconceived notions. Making more friends is a good thing too."
"Yes, Great-Grandfather."
Wang Guilan answered dutifully.
Although it was her first ti eting him, legend within the family described Great-Grandfather as a god-like existence, and she wouldn’t dare to talk back to Great-Grandfather even if given ten tis the courage.
"Great-Grandfather, since you just returned from the Sacred Domain, could you tell us about it~" After overcoming her initial nervousness, Wang Jinyu adapted quickly and spontaneously ca over to help Wang Shouzhe massage his legs. "Is the Sacred Domain fun? Are the young n handso and outstanding? Is there anyone suitable to introduce to Aunt?"
"Uh... there are outstanding children everywhere." Wang Shouzhe smiled, patting her head, "It’s just in the Sacred Domain, resources are better, so young people from good families have better opportunities than those here. But there are downsides too, like those cultivators who are several hundred, even a couple thousand years old, yet still think of themselves as children..."
Talking about this, Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional.
He had been Great-Grandfather for so many years, yet this return to the Sacred Domain saw him behaving like an arrogant young master for the first ti.
Upon returning and seeing these children look at him with respect and awe, Wang Shouzhe felt alive again.
"..."
Wang Jinyu was left speechless, unable to understand how soone could consider themselves a child when they were several hundred or even a thousand years old.
Even though she was only fifteen years old now, she was already thinking of getting things done.
"Great-Grandfather, you went to the Sacred Domain for so many years, even missing out on my birth," Wang Jinyu clung to Wang Shouzhe’s leg, whining, "Could you maybe make up for my first-year birthday gift?"
Wang Fuheng’s expression changed, hurriedly stepping forward to try and pull Wang Jinyu away: "You little girl have no sense of decorum, how can you speak to Great-Grandfather like this? Back when you turned one, Great-Grandmother had already given you a generous birthday gift."
