At this moment, Old Master Sheng and Old Madam Sheng had come to the capital again. They had heard about Sheng Yang’s relationship from somewhere and were prepared to investigate.
Sheng Yue had even missed out on the opportunity that was initially in her hands. They had to pay more attention to this granddaughter of theirs and see if her partner was right for the Sheng family.
Old Master Sheng and Old Madam Sheng wanted to see Sheng Yang. Yi Juncheng was a clingy man, so if Sheng Yang went, he would go. If Sheng Yang didn’t go, he wouldn’t go either. He didn’t care about anyone else. Even if these two were Yangyang’s grandparents in name, he still did whatever he wanted.
“What? She’s not coming? That man isn’t coming either?” When Old Madam Sheng heard that, her impression of Yi Juncheng immediately dropped to rock bottom. As expected, whatever pot was matched with whatever lid. Sheng Yang was already a headache for her. Now, she had such a grandson-in-law too!
Old Master Sheng’s expression darkened when he heard that. However, his words were nicer than Old Madam Sheng’s. “I’m her grandfather, after all. Isn’t she going overboard?”
Hence, the two elders thought for a while and arranged to have a meal with the Kang family. Unexpectedly, when Sheng Yang heard that Old Master Kang and Old Madam Kang were going, Sheng Yang immediately agreed.
The goal was achieved.
However, it was not easy for the two elders of the Sheng family to think about it. The two of them were her family too. They were her paternal grandparents, but she was not as close to them as her maternal grandparents!
Sheng Yang relied on the Sheng family’s reputation to survive. Even her parents had to rely on the Sheng family’s money to support her. It was really… a long story.
On the day of the meal, Old Madam Sheng was dressed in gold and silver. She had always looked down on the Kang family and had never agreed to the marriage. Therefore, she had to surpass Old Madam Kang no matter what.
In comparison, Old Madam Kang’s dressing was much more dignified and elegant. She had a very simple jade bracelet on her, and her clothes were simple.
Old Madam Sheng’s gaze was disdainful, but Old Master Sheng could tell.
The bracelet on Old Madam Kang’s wrist seemed to be the one that had recently been sold for the highest price at Weixing Underground Auction House. The business world was a small circle, so Old Master Sheng knew about it. Old Master Sheng rubbed his chin. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Could it be that the Kang family had recently made a fortune?
......
If that was really the case, he had to ask around and let Sheng Corporation have a share.
“Kang family, what business have you been busy with recently?”
Hearing this, Old Master Kang took a sip of tea unhurriedly and narrowed his eyes. “It’s just those small businesses from before. They haven’t changed.”
Sheng Yang’s lips twitched when she heard her grandfather’s words.
Apart from Weixing Underground Auction House, her mother’s family also had a mineral oil business. If these were small businesses, then there were no big businesses in the world.
“Oh.” Old Master Sheng was puzzled. Then, he looked at Old Madam Kang. “Then, your bracelet…?”
Old Madam Sheng was confused. What was wrong with this old man? Why was he asking about the Kang family’s bracelet?
Old Madam Kang smiled and pointed at Sheng Yang, who had just sat down. “Yangyang gave it to me.”
That completely dispelled Old Master Sheng’s doubts.
Sheng Yang gave it to her? It should be fake, then. But even if it was fake, his eyes were so experienced that he could tell that the bracelet was exquisite and definitely not cheap. Could it be from the man sitting next to Sheng Yang? But…
