After hearing Song Qingshan’s words, Song Yan’s complexion turned ashen.
"Five years ago, I lost your father, and only recently, I stood up again."
Song Qingshan spoke solemnly, "Of the three major events, the first two have already come true, now only the last one remains."
Song Yan, with tears in her eyes, said, "How could that Taoist ten years ago possibly predict the future? It’s all just a coincidence."
Song Qingshan shook his head, "If he had predicted ten things, and one or two came true, it could be a coincidence. But he only predicted three major events, and two have already come true. Can that still be a coincidence?"
"Xiao Yan, there are many extraordinary things and people in this world, many of which people will think impossible, simply because they haven’t seen them."
Song Yan’s complexion became extremely pale; she finally understood why Song Qingshan wanted Song Jie to gradually take over the family business.
If the Taoist’s predictions were correct, then today would be the day when Song Qingshan would encounter a great opportunity, and if he failed to seize it, he would indeed die.
But what was Song Qingshan’s opportunity?
Suddenly, Song Yan asked, "Grandfather, could your opportunity possibly be the Evergreen Pill?"
Song Qingshan shook his head, "Taking the Evergreen Pill just made me much younger, and my strength increased to the Dark Energy Peak, but it has nothing to do with my life or death. However, the Taoist said that this opportunity is related to my life and death."
He had thought about this before, but it was clearly not the case.
Song Yan’s brows furrowed tightly, and after a moment of reflection, she said, "If what the Taoist said is true, then that means you will encounter this opportunity today..."
As she spoke, something suddenly occurred to her, and she hurriedly asked, "Grandfather, do you think this opportunity could be a person?"
"A person?"
Song Qingshan was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized, saying in astonishment, "You mean, Qin Chuan?"
"Right, right, right, the opportunity the Taoist spoke of must be Qin Chuan!"
Song Qingshan’s face lit up with excitement.
Awe and surprise shimmered in Song Yan’s beautiful eyes as she exclaimed with joy, "Could it really be him?"
She had been worrying that Qin Chuan’s behavior at the birthday feast had angered her grandfather, and that she wouldn’t be able to associate with Qin Chuan anymore.
Now it seemed that such a thing would not happen.
If Qin Chuan truly was her grandfather’s opportunity, then not only would her grandfather not sever the relationship with Qin Chuan, but he would also deepen it.
"Xiao Yan, I used to think that marrying you off to Qin Chuan was letting that young man get the better deal, but now it seems I was too rash."
Song Qingshan said with a smile, "Grandfather knows you like that young man. If that’s the case, then go for it boldly! When a woman chases a man, it’s like a layer of gauze. With your beauty, you’ll certainly win him over."
A blush flew across Song Yan’s cheeks as she looked down and said, "Grandfather, he already has someone he likes."
Song Qingshan said, "Don’t worry, grandfather has checked it all clear. Qin Chuan has no relationship whatsoever with that Xiao Family girl."
"How is that possible?"
Song Yan was surprised.
Song Qingshan said, "Qin Chuan just happened to save that girl by chance. As far as I know, this girl has an engagement with the heir of the Provincial City Chen Family and is about to get married."
Song Yan’s breathing suddenly quickened, and she asked excitedly, "Grandfather, are you not deceiving me?"
Seeing Song Yan so excited, Song Qingshan felt bittersweet in his heart, realizing how soon girls grow up and leave home.
He nodded, then frowned, "Although there is an impending marriage alliance, this girl seems reluctant to marry into the Chen Family."
"Your Grandfather Luo mentioned this to me before, and he was thinking about how to stop the marriage."
"If I’m not mistaken, the reason Qin Chuan publicly rejected you was out of respect for Luo Changsheng, seeking to help the Xiao Family girl refuse the marriage arrangement."
"So, it’s not that he doesn’t like you, but he had to temporarily reject you to help that girl! Otherwise, how could there be any feelings between two people who have only met for the second time today?"
"Of course, just because there are no feelings now doesn’t mean there won’t be any in the future, so, if you really like Qin Chuan, you should seize the moment!"
Hearing Song Qingshan’s words, Song Yan suddenly awoke, yes, during Grandfather’s birthday banquet when Wang Song slandered Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan himself said that it was only his second encounter with Xiao Mengyi.
That is to say, it wasn’t that Qin Chuan didn’t like her, but that he temporarily needed to help Xiao Mengyi.
With a smile beaming across his face, Song Qingshan said, "I plan to visit Old Luo personally, the Evergreen Pill that Qin Chuan gave me is too precious, I must thank him in person."
After finishing his words, he cheerfully turned around and walked away.
A momentary daze later, Song Yan hastily chased after Song Qingshan, "I’ll come along!"
Over at the Luo Family’s Small Villa.
Qin Chuan looked at the two elders with a helpless expression, "Elder Luo, Granny Sun, that’s the whole story of how Xiao Yi and I met."
Just then, he recounted everything that had happened, except for the incident that occurred at the hotel that night.
He even mentioned the cover-up story they had used.
"Who would have thought Xiao Chuan would have such a heroic deed to his name, it seems heaven itself wants you to be my grandson-in-law."
Sun Xiuyun’s face lit up with a smile before she added, "You don’t have to make it so complicated, I have a suggestion that will guarantee the Chen Family will give up on the arranged marriage willingly."
Qin Chuan immediately responded with joy, "Granny Sun, please tell me!"
With a mischievous smile, Sun Xiuyun said, "You two should get your marriage certificate first!"
Qin Chuan was shocked, truly the grandmother and granddaughter thought alike.
"Xiuyun, stop causing trouble!" Elder Luo didn’t share Sun Xiuyun’s casual demeanor and expressed his concern seriously, "Not to mention getting married, even a fake boyfriend-girlfriend relationship could bring deadly danger to Qin Chuan!"
"How could the Provincial City Chen Family’s arranged marriage simply be ruined by someone they regard as an insignificant character?"
Sun Xiuyun, unconvinced, countered, "What’s there to fear? We’ll deal with it as it comes! If the Chen Family wants to mess with my grandson-in-law, they’ll have to get past me first!"
Elder Luo gave Sun Xiuyun a helpless look and sighed, "The trouble Qin Chuan is in right now is not small at all. After causing such a commotion at Old Song’s banquet, he’s completely offended the Song Family."
"If you add the Provincial City Chen Family to that, how do you expect him to live?"
...
At this moment, not far from the Luo Family’s Small Villa, a luxury car sped along, approaching rapidly.
"Screech~"
An ear-piercing screech of the brakes suddenly erupted, causing Song Qingshan and Song Yan’s bodies to jolt forward abruptly, and had they not been wearing seat belts, they likely would have flown out of the car.
Song Qingshan frowned and snapped, "Xiao Li, what’s wrong with your driving?"
Xiao Li, looking at the figure less than a meter from the car’s hood, still shaken, took a deep breath and said, "Family Head, someone’s blocking the way!"
"Hmm?"
Only then did Song Qingshan notice an elderly man in coarse cloth attire, his hawk-like eyes piercing through the car window glass, staring intently at him.
"Song Qingshan, I’ve come for your life!"
Suddenly, a powerful aura radiated from the elder.
"Bang bang bang!"
Right at that moment, all the windows of the expensive car Song Qingshan was riding in shattered instantaneously.
Song Qingshan felt as if struck by lightning, his body shivering uncontrollably with fear, he exclaimed, "Internal Energy Release, Energizing Skill Grandmaster!"
