A Plan

Grandfather He was sitting on the hospital bed as the doctor checked him. His face was still red. Butler Zhang who was standing a few steps away didn't know whether it was from shame or from anger.

After a thorough checkup, the doctor turned around to look at Butler Zhang.

"The patient is fine. He just needs a little rest. It will be better if his body does not go through any extreme emotion."

Butler Zhang heard seriously whatever the doctor told him. However, hearing the doctor's words, Grandfather He suddenly started shouting loudly.

"What fine? I am not fine at all. I am burning with anger. Old Zhang, did you see how that stinky boy played me with my own words. I had just asked for a little grandson because I can't bear this loneliness. Ah..... you just kill me. I want to die. Just kill me. I will die and then I will not leave that stinky boy once I become a ghost."

The doctor awkwardly tried to calm down Grandfather He. However, Butler Zhang's hand reached inside his pocket and he spread his hand in front of Grandfather He.

On his palm, lied a small bottle. The words 'RAT POISON' were printed in bold letters.

"This is the poison to kill rats. Its quality is very good. I bought it for my mother who lives in the village. But if you want to use it, I don't mind. Although I am not sure if it can kill you, you can give it a try."

Grandfather He swallowed hard glancing at the poison in his hands.

The doctor was shocked by Butler Zhang's words. He was about to snatch the bottle from Butler Zhang's hands when Grandfather He started to laugh loudly.

"Old Zhang, I was joking. You don't need to give me poison if you are angry at my words. I won't leave you alone. What will you do without me? This old man will continue to live with this loneliness for you. Now I should rest as the doctor said."

Saying this, Grandfather He hurriedly covered himself with the comforter and laid down on the hospital bed without speaking any more nonsense.

Behind him, Butler Zhang scoffed and then accompanied the doctor to the door. When Butler Zhang left the room, Grandfather He lifted his quilt and looked around the room. Seeing that there was not anyone inside the room, he took out his phone that was hidden under his pillow and dialed a number.

"Old Shen."

Inside the dining room of Shen Villa, Grandfather Shen sat on the chair holding the phone hearing whatever Grandfather He was saying.

"Old He, I heard that you're in the hospital. What happened?"

Grandfather He didn't want to tell him that he had to pretend to be ill so that his grandson would come to City H.

How will he show his face if anyone came to know this?

So he lied without any shame.

"That..... I just had some pain in my chest because of indigestion. That stinky grandson of mine loves me so much that he ordered Old Zhang to admit to the hospital. You know.....he was so worried that he especially came to meet me."

"Really, that's good. You're are so lucky to have such a filial grandson."

Even though it was not true, Grandfather He liked to hear this. Grandfather Shen continued

"So, did you talk to him about that?"

Grandfather He face that was full of smiles was now akin to a deflated balloon. His face was full of displeasure as he replied to his old friend.

"No, I didn't. Why don't we let them know each other first? Even though Liling and Jian have been acquaintances in their childhood, it has been so many years since then. Jian just returned to China after so many years. I fear that he doesn't remember Liling."

"Oh..this is also possible. Okay, so you can tell me the date and place. I will send Liling there to meet Jian."

Grandfather He paused again.

That stinky boy will leave this City before he would be able to arrange a meeting.

"No, you listen to me....."

Grandfather Shen put down his phone and glanced at his granddaughter who was nervously looking at him. He smiled to assure her and said

"Don't worry. Is there anything you asked for and your grandfather didn't give you? You'll definitely marry He Jian."

On the other side, when Butler Zhang entered he found Grandfather He sitting on the bed with a serious expression on his face. He looked at him and said with authority.

"Call that ungrateful b**t**d and the stinky boy and ask them to come in the evening."

Butler Zhang - Only you can call your own son a b**t**d with such a serious face.

When he turned around, Grandfather He spoke again.

"Also tell them if they don't come then I will abandon them. I will not give them a single cent from my shares after my death."

Still, with his back towards Grandfather He, Butler Zhang rolled his eyes.

Why would they care about those meager shares?

Sigh...Who knows what new drama was the old man planning?

"Hello, Can you give me notes for today's class?"

A boy from Mo Roulan class asked her but suddenly changed his words.

"...or I will ask from someone else."

Mo Roulan stood there with a confused expression on her face as the boy left from there.

"Stupid boy."

Shen Youlin muttered from her behind. Mo Roulan shook her head and sighed.

"Let's go."

Saying this she walked forward while Shen Youlin turned around to look at the boy whose back could still be seen with narrowed eyes.

'Trying to steal Roulan? they'll have to cross her before that.'

Smirking slyly, she also walked in the direction Mo Roulan went.
