2 ~Meeting with Grandpa Han~

Liu Qiao Xin was silent. What the old man said was true. She would never be able to escape Chen Jia Min's entanglement if she didn't have enough courage to walk away from her lover. However, she still couldn't. Because this does not only concern herself but also her family. Her father died three years ago, and now she is the family's breadwinner. Her younger sister went to school. Her mother was seriously ill. In case she doesn't submit to Chen Jia Min's. She will lose her job, and she will become unemployed. She will no longer be able to support her family.

"You are right, Sir. I will never be able to escape from my lover if I do not dare to break free from his control. However, for now, I can not do it. I have to wait for the time to retrieve something he used to extort me. However, I am grateful for your presence. You wanted to listen to my dumb stories. As a woman, I feel completely humiliated, "Liu Qiao Xin smiled wryly. But after that, she looked at the old man with a happy face. "Now, please tell me, what is this problem that you claim to be a problem bigger than mine?" asked Liu Qiao Xin then.

"Han Xiao Chuan is my name. You can call me Grandpa Han. Or Mr. Han. Whichever you like," said Han Xiao Chuan. Liu Qiao Xin nodded, then she asked Han Xiao Chuan to stand up, looking for a seat so they could talk more comfortably. "I am a father to a child. I am also a grandfather to a grandchild. But even until this moment, my grandson does not want to get married. I won't live for long by now. I want him to get married and have children. So I can leave this world in peace. I want to see my grandson get married and have children. I told him many times to find a woman. But all he did was get busy with his work. His co-workers told me that he was gay. One news that made me quite devastated, because I was afraid that my grandson may not be attracted to women. "

Han Xiao Chuan looked so anxious. It showed that what he feels is definitely not trivial.

Liu Qiao Xin grasped Han Xiao Xuan's hand tightly. Then she smiled kindly.

"By the way, what illness are you suffering from? Why did Grandpa Han say couldn't live much longer? From Grandpa Han's look, I can see that you are not just a random person. So I guess Grandpa Han has some money to spend on medical treatment."

"My disease has spread throughout my body. It can no longer be cured. So all I can do is enjoy my life well. Before God takes my life," his reply sounded so sad. Liu Qiao Xin thought back to her mother. She imagined if one day her mother would feel frustrated with her illness that would not heal. Her mother had thoughts like Han Xiao Chuan.

"Grandpa Han, how old is your grandson?" asked Liu Qiao Xin then.

"He is 34 years old, and he is quite young compared to everyone else in his field now. However, in my eyes, he is mature enough to marry a woman."

"Grandpa Han, a 34 years old man is still too young to be attached to one woman. Moreover, he was a successful man, and he would never want to get married before they were 37 years old. Because they thought that they still wanted to have fun, enjoy their life with worldly pleasures. Even changing partners often is a joy at his age. "

"But, my grandson is different, Miss Liu. Unlike friends of his age who like to change partners, he tends to keep himself busy with work. He prefers to be alone and avoid women. That makes me want him to get married even more before the rumor about him being gay spreads around. Because he is my only grandson, I do not want his deviating habit to affect the family business and destroy what I have built from scratch."

Liu Qiao Xin was no longer able to give Han Xiao Chuan any thought. Their train of thought is night and day. Liu Qiao Xin knew that Han Xiao Chuan was a rich man. That's why, everything about him was related to the good name of the family, including a proper management of the family's business. A very strict rule for noble families. Whose way of thinking is far different from her simple self.

"Grandpa Han, if that's what you think. Shouldn't you tell your grandson about what you'd wish for? I'm sure if your grandson understands Grandpa Han's reasons, your grandson will do what Grandpa Han wants. Marry a woman and have children, as the successor to the Han family someday, "

Han Xiao Chuan smiled, hearing what Liu Qiao Xin said. Then he noticed Liu Qiao Xin's face, which was swollen.

This young woman indeed came from a simple family. Moreover, Liu Qiao Xin treated an old stranger in a very polite and friendly manner. Han Xiao Chuan smiled again, and he imagined how great it would be if his grandson had a wife like Liu Qiao Xin.

"Miss Liu, where do you live? And where do you work now? Can I take you to work?" asked Han Xiao Chuan then.

Liu Qiao Xin shook her head. Then she smiled again.

"No, Grandpa Han. I can go to work alone. This is my business card. If Grandpa Han is around this neighborhood or needs something, feel free to contact me. I will help Grandpa Han as best as I can."

"Thank you for your offer, Miss Liu. Safe journey."

Liu Qiao Xin left, walking back down the path. Han Xiao Chuan smiled again while holding the name card.

"Grandpa, what are you doing here? Didn't I tell you, don't get out of the hospital without my permission? All the nurses are now looking for Grandpa who suddenly disappeared,"

The voice sounded hoarse, and his figure looked manly in his black tuxedo. His face was so firm, and his eyebrows were black. His eyes were round with his distinctive curvy lashes, a sharp nose, and full lips that adorned his perfect face. Han Xiao Chuan smiled again. Then he looked at his grandson with affection.

"Well, grandfather will return to the hospital. But after that, Grandfather wants to have an important talk with you, Xiao Long,"
