One by one, people started chiming in.
"What’s going on? Grandpa is getting married?"
"Is Dad really getting married? Hasn’t he been living in the nursing ho? Which lady there caught his eye?"
"We introduced so many potential partners to Dad, and he wasn’t interested in any of them, yet he found soone himself."
"Third Aunt has been gone for so many years; Third Uncle really should find a companion."
"When is the wedding? This is a big event for our family; we definitely need to arrange it well!"
"..."
In the group chat, the Zhang Family mbers were incredibly excited. They expressed their warm congratulations, and so were even clamoring to see a photo of the bride.
Zhang Tao smiled as he looked at these ssages. "Dad plans to have it at the nursing ho, just inviting so relatives and friends. Let’s not be too extravagant."
Speaking of which, he had been quite startled when Zhang Qingyuan called him earlier. Apparently, the officiant was going to be Qin Mu. This level of prestige was absolutely second to none. Especially since Jin City had just experienced a massive shake-up in the pharmaceutical industry. Now, in the pharmaceutical sector, it was no longer just a matter of people paling at the re ntion of Qin; it had gone further. It was said that those black-market hospitals and unscrupulous doctors, upon seeing patients with the surna Qin, had a stress response and couldn’t help but tremble. This was enough to show the trendous impact Qin Mu had brought to the industry... With Qin Mu around, his father’s wedding would basically be secure and go off without a hitch.
「That evening.」
Qin Mu returned ho to the Mountain and Water Garden District after work and had dinner. He took out his phone and sent Qing Lan a ssage.
Qing Lan was one of the few won he knew. Her personality was quite good; she was just a bit unskilled at gas.
"A friend at the nursing ho is getting married. What do you think... I should give as a gift?"
This ti, Zhang Qingyuan’s wedding had indeed caused a sensation throughout the nursing ho. As the officiant, simply giving a red envelope with gift money felt too perfunctory. Therefore, he planned to give sothing else as a gift.
anwhile, Qing Lan, frustrated by how bad she was at the ga, had just uninstalled it when she saw Qin Mu’s ssage.
She couldn’t help replying, "A friend’s wedding? That mainly depends on whether they are male or female. Give sothing with auspicious symbolism, and secondly, consider their hobbies."
Qin Mu saw Qing Lan’s reply. After thinking for a bit, he typed, "He really likes playing chess and listening to court hearings."
According to his understanding of Zhang Qingyuan, these were his biggest hobbies.
"You’re not talking about an elderly person from your nursing ho, are you?" Seeing this, Qing Lan asked in surprise.
She and Qin Mu were fairly well acquainted. She knew that Qin Mu had a good relationship with the elderly residents at the nursing ho, often addressing them as ’brothers.’ It was quite bizarre.
"It’s an old man, seventy-eight this year. What do you think I should give?" Qin Mu did not hide anything and once again humbly asked for advice.
Finally, Qing Lan gave many suggestions. She suggested things like chess manuals or gifts related to court hearings. Catering to his interests, an older person wouldn’t care too much about the monetary value; what truly matters is the sentint behind it.
After reading it, Qin Mu was lost in thought. He muttered to himself, "Maybe... I should get him an encyclopedia of criminal law?"
Old Zhang clearly had a very strong interest in criminal law. He was enthusiastic about watching people get sentenced. But he always felt that giving an encyclopedia of criminal law directly at soone’s wedding seed a bit inappropriate. The implication... it just didn’t seem right.
"Forget it. I’ll take my ti thinking about it. First, I need to resolve these cases."
Giving that was really too hardcore.
「The next day.」
At the nursing ho, Wan Zhongyuan, who had heard about Zhang Qingyuan’s upcoming marriage when he got to work, proactively gathered his staff. He specifically held a eting, instructing all departnts in the nursing ho to prioritize preparations for Zhang Qingyuan’s wedding. They were to get the most professional emcee, hire the best makeup artists and videographers, and ensure the wedding was a model event.
In the future, it could also serve as a classic success story for the nursing ho’s publicity. You see, having been deputy director for so many years, it was the first ti he had encountered residents of the nursing ho actually hitting it off and kindling a romance. If this matter was publicized well, perhaps the children of other seniors would consider sending their elderly parents to their nursing ho. After all, being able to help seniors find a companion was no small enticent. In addition, and more importantly, Zhang Qingyuan had always been on good terms with Qin Mu. By doing this, he could also get on Qin Mu’s good side. He had heard about the stir in Jin City’s pharmaceutical industry in the past few days. With just one person disrupting the entire industry, the reputation of ’Qin Plague God’ was growing. He couldn’t rule out the possibility that he might encounter a problem soday and need to ask Qin Mu for help. Maintaining good relations was always the right move.
When Qin Mu found out about this, he was sowhat amused.
The wedding of two people had unexpectedly caused a sensation throughout the entire nursing ho. It must be said, the prestige of the nursing ho’s number one chess player was truly considerable.
In the afternoon, he also received a notification from the court. The notification stated that this private prosecution case lacked substantial evidence and was not accepted.
"It wasn’t accepted?" He was also sowhat surprised by this result.
In the section for the reason for non-admission, the court’s reply was that the grounds for the lawsuit did not result in serious consequences.
Qin Mu slapped his forehead. I actually forgot about the requirent for key evidence...
