Grandfather Sheng and Grandmother Sheng fell silent. Their eldest son seemed serious. No matter how much they disliked this dumb old lady, they didn’t want to be driven out by their son. Otherwise, they would become the laughingstock of their friends.
There were so many media outlets here today. They could imagine how the media would report on this!
They didn’t want to lose face.
Anyway, they could settle accounts with these people later.
“Let’s go. What are you looking at? A certain somebody forgot his mother after he got a wife,” Grandmother Sheng muttered as she left with her friends.
As they finally left and sat down at a table in the back, the banquet hall was finally at peace.
Sheng Hanjing looked at Yi Juncheng gratefully. “Thank you. We were all busy watching Yangyang. If it weren’t for you…”
Yi Juncheng smiled. “It’s my duty.”
“…”
Sheng Hanjing had always been very well-spoken, but he often went speechless whenever he encountered Yi Juncheng.
Alas, fortunately, what happened today hadn’t caused any damage. The only regret was that Eldest Brother hadn’t come back.
With this in mind, Sheng Hanjing couldn’t help but take out his cell phone again. The screen was still dark, and no calls came in.

After sending off the guests, they were about to return home. Sheng Hanjing stood at the door of the hotel and turned around abruptly.
Sheng Yuxi looked at him in surprise. “Second brother, what’s the matter?”
Sheng Hanjing smiled awkwardly then slowly said, “Nothing. Maybe it’s an illusion.”
“What?”
“Let’s go.”
After he left, a man slowly walked out from behind the pillar. He was wearing a black coat. His pitch-black eyebrows were heavy, and his eyes were deep and dark.
Beside him was his assistant Jin Si. Jin Si looked at his coat sleeve. “Mr. Sheng, you have to go to the hospital to have a doctor look at your hand. You can’t delay it anymore.”
Mr. Sheng could’ve come over in his private jet and landed directly at the hotel after work, but he chose to land some distance away from the hotel then drove all the way over. On the way, he thought Jin Si was driving too slowly, so he drove himself. As a result, he got into a minor car accident because of speeding and injured his hand. But he didn’t go to the hospital; instead, he rushed over. However, when he arrived, instead of entering the banquet hall, he just stayed outside and secretly watched the whole banquet party.
Sometimes Jin Si didn’t even know what his boss was thinking.

One day later, Sheng Hanjing suddenly received a call. It was his friend who worked at the hospital.
“Hanjing? I seemed to have seen your eldest brother at the hospital yesterday. I was busy in the operating room, so I didn’t have time to tell you. What happened to your eldest brother?” he asked with concern.
Sheng Hanjing was taken aback. When his eldest brother started working, he was like an iron man. He wouldn’t go to the hospital if he had a cold or stomach pain as long as it wasn’t too serious.
What had happened to him that he had to go to the hospital?
The initial reaction of soft-hearted Sheng Hanjing was to worry about his eldest brother’s health, but then he realized: Huh? That’s not right! Eldest Brother is abroad. He shouldn’t be in Yan City!
Wait a minute… was my illusion the other day real?
Although Eldest Brother was ill, Sheng Hanjing was pleased.
Eldest Brother wasn’t as iron-hearted as he thought. He did come back for their younger sister’s coming-of-age party.
“Which unit? Do you remember?” Sheng Hanjing picked up his coat on the chair. “Okay, I’ll be right there.”
