“Sir, I’m here to ask. Do you want to change the decoration of the front hall?”
“Yes. It’s been several years. We should change it to something new. I’m tired of it.” Elder Liu pretended to cough and then sat down as if nothing had happened. “You know my preferences. Just follow my preferences.”
“Okay, I got it.”
After Zhuge Yu left, Elder Liu felt that Chen Meng’er’s eyes had been on him the whole time. He did not dare look at Chen Meng’er today. He explained to Chen Meng’er in an awkward manner, “On a whim today, I felt that the decor of the Green Gang has not changed even after so many years, so I let Zhuge and the others go through all the trouble.”
“Yes, yes, I know, I know.” Chen Meng’er looked at Elder Liu with a knowing expression.
Speaking of which, Chen Meng’er was quite curious about Elder Wharton. In her previous life, she had also heard a lot about Elder Wharton’s deeds. But due to her identity in her previous life, it was simply impossible for her to have any contact with Elder Wharton. Moreover, if Chen Meng’er remembered correctly, Elder Wharton didn’t have many years left to live.
Thinking of Elder Wharton, Chen Meng’er stroked her chin. She seemed to have forgotten one thing. In her previous life, after Elder Wharton passed away, the one who took over the Wharton family seemed to be Elder Wharton’s only grandson.
Chen Meng’er couldn’t recall his name at the moment. In any case, it wasn’t Chen Ming.
Chen Meng’er estimated that after inheriting the Wharton family, Chen Ming wouldn’t be able to use his previous name to the public.
Chen Meng’er also remembered that the head of the Wharton family after Elder Wharton, had brought the Wharton family to another peak. It could be said that the new head of the Wharton family was the only person who could be compared to Yuwen Jing. It was said that the new head of the Wharton family was a cold-blooded person. There were also people who said that the new head of the Wharton family was not straight. Because all along, he had never had any relations with any woman. Until Chen Meng’er was reborn, the new head of the Wharton family didn’t seem to have any female companions.
“Meng’er, you should go eat breakfast. Oh right, if you have something to do today, go and do your own thing.” It was unknown what kind of attitude Elder Liu was holding, but Chen Meng’er could feel it. Her grandfather didn’t really want her to face Elder Wharton. As for why, Chen Meng’er really couldn’t remember for a moment.
“Alright, I’ll go eat breakfast now. I really don’t seem to have anything to do today. Recently, I’ve been very busy,” Chen Meng’er said deliberately.
“If you don’t have anything to do, then, then you should read your medical books. Oh right, I just saw something that I don’t understand. Grandpa will bring it to you later. Help Grandpa take a look at it and explain it to Grandpa later.” Elder Liu’s intentions of sending Chen Meng’er away were too obvious.
“Okay.” Chen Meng’er agreed readily, but had her own thoughts. “Then Grandpa, I’m going to eat breakfast now.”
“Go, go.” Elder Liu couldn’t wait for Chen Meng’er to leave this place.
He didn’t want Elder Wharton to see his precious granddaughter. He understood Elder Wharton’s temper very well. They had fought for so many years, and every time something caught his eye, he would fight with him for it.
Perhaps, this time, when that Elder Wharton saw his precious granddaughter, he would snatch her away from him. Moreover, his grandson, Chen Ming, had taken a fancy to his precious granddaughter.
Chen Meng’er had just left when Ah Biao hurriedly walked in. “Sir, Elder Wharton and the others have arrived. They are at the door right now. Should we let them in?” Ah Biao had been sent here to seek Elder Liu’s opinion.
Zhuge Yu and the others all knew about the conflict between Elder Wharton and Elder Liu. That was why they mobilized so many people when Elder Wharton arrived.
“So fast,” Elder Liu muttered softly. However, when he turned around and saw that Chen Meng’er’s figure was no longer in the hall, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Why didn’t you let him in? Let him in so that he wouldn’t go around saying that I’m afraid of him.”
“When did I say that? I’m telling the truth. Aren’t you afraid of me? Why didn’t you come to find me when you came to my family’s territory?” Elder Liu’s voice had just fallen when Elder Wharton’s voice was heard.
Zhuge Yu and the others didn’t dare stop Elder Wharton. This old man wanted to see Elder Liu’s mettle. It had been so many years since Elder Wharton’s old butler had seen his master walk so fast.
“I’m not afraid of you. With that body of yours, I’m afraid that once I appear, I’ll provoke you and your grandson will come after me.” When Elder Liu heard Elder Wharton’s voice, his body stiffened for a moment, but then he immediately returned to normal.
“What’s wrong with my body? My body is fine. If you’re afraid, just say it. Don’t keep finding excuses.” Elder Wharton leaned on his dragon-headed walking stick and puffed out his chest at Elder Liu. He wanted to prove to Elder Liu that his body was fine.
Elder Liu looked meaningfully at the dragon-headed walking stick in Elder Wharton’s hand and said, “Are you sure? If your body is fine, why do you need this walking stick?”
Elder Wharton had always regarded the dragon-headed walking stick as his treasure. Now, whichever way he looked at it, he felt that it was an eyesore. If it weren’t for the fact that he didn’t want Elder Liu to think that he cared too much about his words, he would have thrown the walking stick in his hand directly to the old butler who was following behind him.
The old butler who had been following Elder Wharton for many years had been silently wiping his cold sweat ever since he entered. If there was one thing that he was most afraid of, it would be the encounter between his master and Elder Liu of the Green Gang. If the two of them were to meet, they would not stop until they fought to the death.
Chen Ming, on the other hand, had been silent ever since he entered the front hall with his grandfather. However, his gaze would occasionally drift towards the door. Although he had been explicitly rejected by Chen Meng’er, he still couldn’t let go of her.
