"Hao, you're really wealthy! Three hundred million seems like re scraps in your hands," Shangguan Longyi exclaid in shock upon hearing Ye Hao ntion the price at the Dragon and Phoenix Castle.
"Haha, the main thing is living comfortably. How much it costs doesn't really matter," Ye Hao replied with a laugh.
"I can't compare to you, Hao. Taking out a hundred thousand is already a lot for us, but you, Hao, easily bring out hundreds of millions. You're a role model for us!" Shangguan Longyi admired Ye Hao, but he had his reasons for praising him.
His grandma Murong Lan was very insistent, always wanting to see Ye Hao, almost as if Ye Hao were her own grandson. Just like this ti when Shangguan Longyi went out, Murong Lan repeatedly emphasized that it was crucial for Ye Hao to visit the Shangguan Clan.
"Haha, don't flatter . Help connect with soone to get a swimming pool built, and while you're at it, surround the nearby environnt," Ye Hao said, pointing to the surroundings.
"No problem, that's a small matter," Shangguan Longyi patted his chest, looking assured.
Ye Hao nodded with a smile and asked, "I trust you with things. By the way, how are Grandma Lan and Grandpa Dapao's health?"
Ye Hao knew that the matter with Murong Lan had been dragging on for a while and that continuing to delay wasn't a solution. It'd be better to rejuvenate Murong Lan sooner. Of course, Ye Hao wasn't a stingy person; if he's helping Murong Lan, he should definitely help out with Shangguan Dapao as well.
Lest Shangguan Dapao sees old brother Ye Batian, whose partner becos youthful, and he's left with white hair and a body growing frailer by the day.
"Grandpa's not doing too well; he's been coughing a bit lately. Grandma's been irritable too, and I don't dare talk to her," Shangguan Longyi said, being the grandson Murong Lan doted on most, while Shangguan Longyi was Shangguan Dapao's most beloved granddaughter.
Even Shangguan Longyi, the apple of Murong Lan's eye, didn't dare approach her, which showed how difficult she was to handle these days.
Actually, Ye Hao understood this was just Murong Lan being anxious to regain her youth.
Once Ye Hao helped her beco younger, her irritable moods would vanish completely.
"Haha, it seems I haven't visited Grandma Lan and Grandpa Dapao in a while; I don't even know how they are. Longyi, later, you'll have people handle what I asked you to do and take to the Ye Family," Ye Hao said.
"Alright, Hao, wait a mont, I'll call soone right away," Shangguan Longyi said, turning to make calls about digging the pool.
Ye Hao went ho to brief Sun i and Zheng Guang, instructing them to keep the girls safe, and then left Dragon and Phoenix Castle with Shangguan Longyi.
Shangguan Longyi took Ye Hao to the Ye Family, where Ye Hao asked Shangguan Longyi to wait for him.
Ye Hao entered the Ye Family without needing any identification, as Ye Batian had proudly ntioned Ye Hao everywhere! Nine out of ten security guards nearby had heard of Ye Hao's na and seen his picture.
Ye Batian seed afraid people wouldn't know Ye Hao was his grandson, boasting about Ye Hao's great achievents.
Yet in front of Ye Hao, Ye Batian was constantly critiquing him, afraid he'd beco arrogant or easily satisfied to his detrint.
"Grandpa," Ye Hao greeted upon entering the courtyard. Ye Batian was practicing Tai Chi and quickly raised his voice.
"Haha, are you in Yanjing now, kid?" Ye Batian heard Ye Hao's voice, quickly concluding his moves, gathering his Inner Breath, and smiling as he approached Ye Hao.
"Just arrived in Yanjing, planning to have dinner at grandpa's," Ye Hao noticed the ti; it was already afternoon, nearing nightfall.
"Haha, in your own ho, why 'borrow' dinner? There's food for you. Your aunt just went out to buy groceries and will return soon to cook dinner. Kid, it's been a while since we t, and my hands are itching. Care for a round?" Ye Batian wanted to see if Ye Hao had forgotten his Tai Chi, planning to test him.
Little did he know, Ye Hao had been practicing the most authentic Tai Chi.
"Haha, let's have a push," Ye Hao laughed heartily as he stood before Ye Batian, who raised his starting pose.
Ye Hao did the sa.
Starting slow and accelerating quickly, Ye Batian's movents were fluid, leaving the returning maid astonished.
Ye Hao didn't use his full strength; he rely dodged Grandpa's force narrowly enough, aware that if he retaliated, Ye Batian wouldn't stand a chance.
Ye Hao's pushhand focused on sticking, adjusting with every turn, leaving Ye Batian with no recourse.
After several minutes, Ye Batian noticed he hadn't even touched Ye Hao's clothes, feeling frustrated, he grumbled, "No more, no more. Kid, did you get so opportunity? Otherwise, how could your Tai Chi be so pure?"
Ye Hao chuckled upon hearing, whispering in Ye Batian's ear.
When Ye Batian heard that Zhang Ruochen and Zhang Ruowu were Ye Hao's ntors, he jumped up excitedly, knowing their nas were renowned. Even Ye Batian was a junior compared to them.
"Then, kid, tell , can we pass down that...?" Ye Batian eagerly inquired.
"Technically no, but given who you are, my grandpa, if not passing it to you, then to whom?" Ye Hao laughed.
"Haha, you kid, hurry up!" Ye Batian said impatiently.
Ye Hao smiled and nodded, explaining Tai Chi's importance and the gentle rhythm to Ye Batian.
Although initially unfamiliar, given his Tai Chi background, Ye Batian quickly grasped Ye Hao's teachings.
Of course, this realization didn't an he'd mastered it all, only that he could faintly sense Tai Chi's essence.
After more than two hours, Liu Su had already prepared dinner in the kitchen, waiting for Ye Hao and company.
Ye Tian arrived, though eting Ye Hao left both feeling awkward.
"Hao, dad, co over for dinner," Liu Su, a mysterious expert, now seed like a kind wife and mother, beckoning them to eat.
"Coming," Ye Hao and Ye Batian laughed as they walked over, still discussing Tai Chi.
Once seated, Ye Batian pulled Ye Hao beside him, leaving Ye Hao feeling a bit awkward, for this was Ye Tian's usual seat, which he was now occupying.
Ye Batian personally poured Ye Hao a large bowl of wine before pouring one for himself.
Ye Tian felt a bit helpless, thinking inwardly, "Who's truly your son?" However, he resorted to pouring his own drink.
Seeing this, Ye Hao raised his bowl and said to Ye Tian, "Sorry, Mr. Ye, for what happened before. We handled it poorly. I hope you can forgive us."
Without waiting for Ye Tian's response, Ye Hao gulped down the drink. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, feel free to vote for it on Qidian [qidian], your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian to read.)
