“Then what are you still waiting for? Hurry up and leave.” Elder Liu could not sit still anymore. He stood up and walked towards the courtyard that Chen Meng’er liked to stay in.
The moment Elder Liu walked into the courtyard, he heard Little Apple’s unhappy voice, “Bad guy! Bad guy. You snatched Little Apple’s pastry.”
“Hmph, this is what my sister made for me. It’s mine!” Following that, Qu Haoxiang’s exasperated voice could be heard.
Without even looking, it was clear that as long as Qu Haoxiang appeared, countless battles would be held every day. Chen Meng’er looked at her brother, who was being childish in front of her, and her head ached. However, she had never intervened in the battle between her brother and Little Apple.
That was because as long as she participated, the flames of war would not be extinguished, but would instead burn even more intensely. Therefore, Chen Meng’er was very tactful and would sit by the side to watch the show.
“Meng’er, it’s been a long time since we last saw each other. I’ve been thinking too much about my granddaughter.” In front of others, Elder Qu, who was known as the King of Hell, had a smile on his face. “Meng’er, when are you going to visit the Qu family? Your grandmother is always talking about you.”
Chen Meng’er only remembered when Elder Qu mentioned Madam Qu. She had promised to treat Madam Qu’s illness. Because Chen Meng’er was not in the capital, Madam Qu had gone home to recuperate after she recovered. She had not gone for surgery until now.
Chen Meng’er was just about to open her mouth to tell Elder Qu about Madam Qu’s health when someone snorted coldly and interrupted what she was about to say. “Hmph. Don’t keep calling her your granddaughter. My Meng’er is MY granddaughter.” Elder Liu walked in with a displeased expression.
The moment Elder Liu appeared, Little Apple and Qu Haoxiang, who had been arguing non-stop about a piece of pastry a second ago, stopped arguing immediately.
“Hehe, this is something that will happen sooner or later. Moreover, even if Meng’er doesn’t acknowledge the Qu family, we can’t deny that she has the blood of the Qu family flowing in her veins.” Elder Qu was not angry. He chuckled and spoke.
However, only Elder Qu himself knew how much he had endured to not fly into a rage.
Elder Qu had interacted with Elder Liu many times. On the surface, the two of them did not seem to be on good terms, and Elder Liu was always on guard against Elder Qu. However, only Chen Meng’er knew that these two old men were only different on the surface. In their hearts, they were both like each other.
Therefore, Elder Qu and Elder Liu were exchanging pleasantries. Chen Meng’er pretended not to see them. She was reading her book, basking in the sun, and drinking afternoon tea. It was very satisfying.
It was not until Elder Qu and Elder Liu became tired of talking did they realize that they had been arguing for a long time, and the person involved had not heard what they were saying at all.
“Grandpa Qu, why did you come to see me today?” Chen Meng’er saw that the two old men had finally stopped arguing, so she put down the book in her hand, raised her head, looked at Elder Qu, and asked.
“I have something for you.” Elder Qu and Elder Liu quarreled and forgot about their official business. “This is the transfer of shares of the Murong family. I have transferred all the shares of the Murong family to your name.” Elder Qu handed the document in his hand to Chen Meng’er.
Chen Meng’er took it and closed it after a quick glance. Then, she handed it back to Elder Qu.
Elder Qu’s expression immediately turned sad, “What? Do you think Grandpa gave you too little? Do you not like it?” Elder Qu did not reach out to take it. Instead, he looked at Chen Meng’er with a face full of grievance and stubbornness.
Well, when Chen Meng’er saw Elder Qu’s expression, she knew that the person in front of her was another childish person. Moreover, he was becoming more and more difficult to deal with. Chen Meng’er felt her head ache.
In fact, Chen Meng’er had long known that the Qu family had created an unhappy situation because of the matter of the Murong family’s shares. Therefore, when Elder Qu handed the documents of the shares to her, she was not surprised at all.
“Grandpa Qu, you know that’s not what I meant.” Chen Meng’er pinched the bridge of her nose and said, “Grandpa Qu, I think that many people in the Qu family are not feeling happy and are reluctant to give me the shares of the Murong family. I don’t want to cause internal strife in the Qu family because of me.”
Chen Meng’er’s words touched Grandpa Qu so much that tears almost flowed down his face. But, the more Chen Meng’er acted like this, the more Elder Qu wanted to deliver everything that he thought was good in the world to Chen Meng’er.
Elder Liu, who was familiar with Chen Meng’er’s nature, looked at Elder Qu who was so touched that tears were about to fall. He secretly pursed his lips, but his heart was relieved.
“Girl, take them. The shares should have been yours to begin with. If it weren’t for you, our family wouldn’t have been able to resolve the Murong family matter so smoothly and acquire the Murong family’s shares. Moreover, even though your mother isn’t Matriarch Murong’s biological daughter, she is still the Murong family’s daughter. Only when the Murong family’s shares are in your hands will it be reasonable,” Elder Qu said firmly, this was something he had already decided on when he purchased the Murong family’s shares. Therefore, when he purchased the Murong family’s shares, he used the money in his own account. “Besides, this is something I bought for my granddaughter. It has nothing to do with anyone in the Qu family.”
