Chapter 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 of this does not only concern herself but also her family. Her father died three years ago, and now she is the backbone of the family. Her younger sister went to school. Her mother was seriously ill. In case she doesn't obey all of Chen Jia Min's words. 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 beloved if I do not dare to break free from his bondage. However, for now, I can not do it. I have to wait for the time to retrieve the thing he used to blackmail me. However, I am grateful to you. You wanted to listen to my stupid stories. As a woman, I feel completely devoid of pride, "Liu Qiao Xin smiled wryly. But after that, she looked at the old man with a happy face. "Now, please tell me, what is your problem that you say if your problem is bigger than mine?" asked Liu Qiao Xin then.
"Han Xiao Chuan is my name. You can call me Grandpa Han. Or Mr. Han. As 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 casually. "I am a father who has a child. I am also a grandfather who only has one grandchild. But until this moment, my grandson does not want to get married. My age is not long. I want him to get married and have children. So I can die quietly. Because I saw my grandson married and had children. I told him many times to find a woman. But what he did was busy with his work. His co-workers told me that he was gay. One news that made me enough devastated, because I was afraid that my grandson would not be attracted to women. "
Han Xiao Chuan's expression was anxious. It indicates that what he feels is not trivial.
Liu Qiao Xin grasped Han Xiao Xuan's hand tightly. Then she smiled kindly.
"By the way, what is Grandpa Han sick? Why did Grandpa Han say you couldn't live longer? From Grandpa Han's look, I can see that you are not just anyone. So I guess Grandpa Han can use the money for medical treatment."
"My disease has spread throughout my body. My disease can no longer be cured. So all I can do is, enjoy my life well. Before God takes my life," the 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 young to work in his field now. However, in my eyes, he is mature to marry a woman."
"Grandpa Han, for a man 34 years old is still very young for them 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 want 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 his age who like to change partners. He tends to keep himself busy with work, and he prefers to be alone and avoiding with women. That's what makes me think even more if he should get married soon. Before what was reported was true, if he was gay. Because he is my only grandson, I do not want his habit of deviating to affect the family business. So that what I have built from scratch will be destroyed because of his actions. "
Liu Qiao Xin was no longer able to give Han Xiao Chuan input. Their thinking is very different. Liu Qiao Xin knew that this Han Xiao Chuan was a rich man. That is why, everything related to the good name of the family, as well as the business must be maintained properly. 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 this wish? I'm sure if your grandson knows 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 seems to be from a simple family. Moreover, Liu Qiao Xin treated foreigners, let alone an old geezer who seemed to be very polite and friendly. 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 in my territory or needs something, don't hesitate to contact me. I will help Grandpa Han wholeheartedly."
"Fine if that's what you want, Miss Liu. Be careful on the road."
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,"
