Watching the interaction between the two, Shi i gently lifted the corners of his lips. He did not interrupt them, but walked to the desk to admire the old man’s calligraphy, leisurely playing with the writing brush on the inkstone with his slender fingers. The smile on his lips deepened gradually, becoming more intense.
After Shi Keke and the old man finished their conversation, he took out the prepared gold card and handed it to the old man with a smile, "From now on, an additional ten million each year, I want to make you a billionaire with over fifty billion in assets during your lifeti."
Ten million a year, a hundred million in ten years, fifty billion would need fifty years.
He used a special thod to wish the old man good health and a long life.
"Very good." The old man showed a gratified smile and accepted the longevity gift he offered.
Even though he knew his health was deteriorating day by day, he never showed the slightest bit of it in front of others.
So say the closer one gets to death, the more fearful and apprehensive one becos, but for him, death was rely the closing of eyes.
Everyone will eventually die; it’s only a matter of ti. He only hoped to see his grandson get married during his lifeti.
"Little i." The old man walked to the desk and sat down, waving towards Shi i to co over.
Shi i walked over and stood in front of the desk. The sunlight pouring through the window cast a charming glow on him.
Shi Keke stood by the window, watching his tall figure from behind. She slightly curled her lips, turned around to face the window, her back to Shi i and the old man, and she smiled.
"This bracelet was left by your grandmother before she died. Originally, there were two; I gave one to your younger sister. Now there’s only one left, and I’m giving it to you." The old man handed him an old box, saying with emphasis, "You are not young anymore; it’s ti to settle down. My only wish now is to see your wedding in my lifeti."
Shi i took the box. He did not look directly into the old man’s cloudy eyes but opened the box to glance at the bracelet inside and then closed it, pursing his lips and saying, "I’ll try my best."
Always economical with words, he still had nothing extra to say. He had always felt that marriage was sothing optional, so he could only give an ambiguous answer.
"The day before yesterday, Old Qian ca to see . He said his granddaughter has returned from studying abroad. Since she is also not young anymore, her family is urging her to marry. He showed a photo; the girl has a pleasing appearance and temperant, a real gem." The old man paused and observed Shi i’s expression before continuing, "If you have no objections, I’ll let Old Qian arrange a eting for you. If you find her agreeable, try dating her. Relationships are cultivated gradually, and who knows, you two might end up together."
Shi i’s gaze darkened; he definitely would not consider matchmaking, so he planned to refuse.
"Grandfather."
But before he could speak, Shi Keke suddenly interjected; she walked over, brought a chair in front of the old man, and sat down, saying seriously, "Qian Xinning, the Qian family’s eldest daughter, twenty-nine years old, has had twelve relationships, with each one ending as she initiated the breakup, resulting in amicable separations. Her personal life is in disarray; a month ago, she was headline news in a magazine, getting drunk in a nightclub and having a one-night stand, followed by pregnancy and abortion."
