"When did it happen?"

How could she be sick in just a short week?

"I knew you were injured, so I came to see you in a hurry. I fell down the stairs."

He suddenly stood up, turned around and walked a few steps towards the window, but his shoulders slightly shook, his face was full of joy, the corners of his lips were trembling for a long time, and tears finally rolled down his face. "How could this happen? "How could it be …"

"I'll agree to the divorce, but wait until grandpa gets better, okay?" There was a pleading tone in his voice, making her unable to say anything.

"Alright, once grandpa is well …"

He seemed to breathe out a sigh of relief as he nodded. "Thank you, Yan Yan."

"I'm just doing it for Grandfather." She immediately got out of bed without looking at him. "Take me to see him."

He did not lie to her, his grandfather really was sick, he did not fall that hard, he did not even have a scratch, he just suddenly became very sick, even some old ailments that he had not experienced for many years had returned. When he left happily, he slept very peacefully, she sat in front of the bed for a long time, when dusk fell, she seemed to suddenly understand something.

The reason for their marriage was grandfather. If grandfather were to leave, he and she would definitely split up.

But now, her grandfather had suddenly fallen ill like this. She knew that this was the will of the heavens, that even the heavens did not look favorably upon their karma. This meeting, these four to five months of being together, they had all been stolen by her, and now, the time had come.

Grandfather was no longer able to move. When he looked at them, he was very pleased, and Joy was also doing her best to show signs of affection towards Shen Canghao. She only wanted to comfort his heart.

His grandfather was very sick, so all matters outside the company naturally fell to Shen Shaokang and Qi Rongrong. After seeing his grandfather return to the mansion, the two of them were too tired to say a word.

"Young Master, Young Mistress, the Old Mistress came in the afternoon and said that she was here for the birthday banquet of her good friend, Mr. Ji Yunze, who had just returned from Australia. She specifically invited the young master and the Young Mistress to the banquet."

Shen Canghao feebly waved his hand, "What do you mean by 'eight pillars cannot be forged together'? Just have the butler send someone to deliver the gifts."

"Young Master, the Master has specifically instructed me to do so. This is a call from the mayor's secretary, and he told Young Master and Young Mistress to attend it, especially Young Mistress, you must attend it."

Madam Qin's words pulled both of their attention back to her. Huaiyan's face was full of shock. She didn't even know Ji Yunze, so why did he tell her to go?

He had already agreed to a divorce, and now, he and Xu Hanyi were only living under the same roof because they had to take into account their grandfather's mood. Especially her, who didn't even want to spare him a glance.

"If that's the case, then go." He spoke in a sour tone and casually threw the invitation to the side. "Sister Qin, go and make some gifts."

Although Huaiyan was puzzled, she only treated it as a normal social gathering and did not open her mouth to refuse. Naturally, she had not gotten a divorce yet, and she still could not refuse her parents-in-law's personal request.

When they got in the car, Shen Canghao was already sitting in the back seat. When she bent over to enter the car, she met his deep eyes, turned her head and said lightly, "Alright, let's go."

When they arrived at the mansion of the Ji family, a steward immediately came forward to greet them. He greeted them respectfully, as if he was waiting for their arrival.

Shen Canghao could not help but become more and more curious as to the methods of this newly returned Ji Clan, which had already attracted the attention of all the famous people in the city, as soon as the servants served tea. Suddenly, the butler came forward and respectfully greeted them, "Mrs. Shen, my wife would like to invite you over for a chat."

Huaiyan became even more suspicious. "Invite me over?" She didn't know Madam Ji at all. Furthermore, they didn't have any interactions before!

"Yes, my wife is waiting upstairs."

She could only stand up and follow the housekeeper upstairs with some unease. Shen Canghao's hand tightened around the cup. Just what did the Ji family want to do? Everything he did was for the sake of her happiness, which made him feel extremely awkward.

"Mister Shen, your presence really brings light to my humble house!" When Shen Canghao raised his head, his expression darkened. Wasn't the person standing in front of him the man who had embraced him that day in the teahouse?

"So it's you. I was wondering why we had to come!" Shen Canghao stood up, his eyes already filled with coldness. He turned a blind eye to Ji Wei An's extended hand and said coldly, "Speak, what is your purpose? If you want to make fun of me, then I warn you, that's impossible!"

"Teacher Shen misunderstands …"

Seeing his reaction, Ji Wei An was not only not angry, but his smile became even brighter. He retracted his hand and said, "Mister Shen, please take a seat. You'll understand when my mother and Joy meetup meet."
