Chapter 1454: Chapter 1447: The Wind Rises (5)

Qin Zhiyou first answered, "That depends on her."

He paused, feeling that wasn’t very appropriate, and then said directly, "She is about to give birth to our child, so it’s not convenient for her to move around. Once the baby is born, I will definitely bring him to your room first thing. Besides, her mother needs someone to take care of her, and even with a nurse, it’s not as comforting as having one’s own children nearby."

The old Mr. Qin knew the situation of the Qin Family himself, and although he also longed to be surrounded by his children and grandchildren, with the Qin Family in such disarray, even he couldn’t be certain that the bunch of demons and monsters in the family wouldn’t target her. It might not be overt hostility with swords drawn, but covert ostracism, bullying, or verbal abuse was another story.

It was his fault, too. When he was young, he focused solely on his career. After his wife passed away, he didn’t have time to manage his family. His three children were at odds with one another, and by the time he was old and wanted to take control, he no longer had the chance to discipline them. His approach to the grandchildren was laissez-faire, leaving it to fate whether they turned out well or not. The two from the third household were utterly spoiled; Qin Zhiyou and Qin Zhigu were antagonistic towards each other; and the new wife of Qin Zhizha was also a headache...

He never interfered in anything, so now he couldn’t control anything. There’s no point in forcing Qin Zhiyou to come back; after all, when children grow up, they should become independent.

"Alright." Though the old Mr. Qin was now almost eighty and in poor health, when he heard this, his eyes dimmed considerably.

"Grandfather..." In fact, Qin Zhiyou could see that he was a little sad. Old people desire a lively home, but for the sake of his wife and child, he couldn’t let them return to a tense atmosphere.

Moreover, he knew his uncles and aunts well — having gone to such lengths to oust them from Hanhai, they would certainly not be willing to hand over power easily. They wouldn’t dare target him directly, knowing that he was cold-hearted, but Wei Hui had no backing and no power, and even if they wouldn’t physically harm her in the open, they would definitely seek revenge on her mercilessly behind the scenes.

While the two were talking, Lu Weixi knocked on the door from outside, "Grandfather, Zhiyou, dinner is ready."

Qin Zhiyou immediately put aside his worries, opened the door, and pretended to be relaxed, "You cooked? If your cooking poisons me, it’s fine, but don’t harm grandfather."

As the door opened, Lu Weixi, still wearing her apron, greeted him with a playful Mengmeng Fist, "What nonsense are you talking about? Is my cooking really that bad? Then later on, you’ll have to finish all the dishes I made!"

After tossing the punch, she remembered that her grandfather-in-law was inside, and Lu Weixi hastily withdrew her fist, looking embarrassed, "No, I mainly helped my mother, and I’m not very skilled in cooking, so I hope grandfather won’t mind."

"I should definitely try it out," the old Mr. Qin said with a smile. Just as the door opened, he saw Lu Weixi and Qin Zhiyou together and was reminded of how he had been with his own wife. Actually, among his four grandchildren, he favored Qin Zhiyou the most. Even though Qin Zhiyou didn’t seem promising back then, and Qin Zhigu was more stable and obedient, sometimes a grandparent’s preference is inexplicable, but he genuinely preferred this eldest grandson.

It was not only because of the saying, "An old father and a grandson are an old man’s lifeline." He liked Qin Zhiyou firstly because he was the grandchild of his deeply loved late wife, bearing a strong resemblance to his grandmother. Secondly, this lad’s personality was very much like his own in his youth.
