"You go back first. I’m still at work. I’ll come find him once I get off," Qian Cheng snapped back to reality and said.
What is meant to come will eventually come. Moreover, this time it was his initiative; he had to meet him and then discuss the terms.
If a deal could be struck, that would be best, but if not, it wouldn’t matter. He could still rely on his own efforts to protect his wife and child. It would just require a bit more thought.
"Young Master Cheng, please come with me now. I have already asked for leave from your superiors," Lin Zian was worried Qian Cheng might change his mind again later.
So, he thought it was more reliable to take Qian Cheng himself. As for the leave, he had indeed discussed it with a friend before. Moreover, his friend agreed.
Qian Cheng could see that the other party didn’t trust him, but he didn’t say much. After giving Lin Zian a deep look, he stood up and said, "If that’s the case, then let’s go."
Lin Zian felt relieved seeing Qian Cheng already walking ahead. He quickly caught up with him, exited the office, got into the car waiting outside, and headed to the Silver Flower Hotel together.
At this moment, in the premium VIP suite of the Silver Flower Hotel, Mr. Mu was playing chess while waiting for Qian Cheng.
The room had only Mr. Mu inside, while the guards and orderlies he brought were stationed outside. Get full chapters from n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
Mr. Mu felt a bit nervous; even playing chess didn’t alleviate it. He had sought out Qian Cheng a few years ago, but was flatly rejected. He thought he would go through life without descendants to see him off. Unexpectedly, things took a turn, and Qian Cheng reached out to him first.
This was a tremendous fortune for him. Because of a mistake he made in his youth, his family was torn apart. Even though he had tried his best to make it right, the damage was done. His wife passed away due to him, and his son distanced himself, preferring to stay in the countryside rather than return to his side.
Now, although his grandson had not agreed to acknowledge him, the fact that he proactively contacted him was still a step in the right direction.
He believed that, with time, his grandson would surely see his sincerity and would get along well with him.
While Mr. Mu was lost in his thoughts, there was a knock on the door. Hearing the sound, Mr. Mu stood up excitedly.
But in his rush, he accidentally bumped into the chessboard, scattering the pieces all over the floor.
He didn’t pay attention to this and quickly walked to the door to open it himself.
As the door opened, Lin Zian’s face appeared. Seeing it was his steward, Mr. Mu felt a bit disappointed and said, "It’s you."
Noticing Mr. Mu’s dismay, Lin Zian suddenly smiled and said, "Sir, Young Master Cheng is here to see you."
As Lin Zian moved aside, he revealed Qian Cheng standing behind him.
The moment Mr. Mu saw Qian Cheng, his eyes lit up, and he seemed invigorated, full of spirit.
"Chengcheng, you’re here!" Mr. Mu’s face lit with a smile as he looked kindly at Qian Cheng.
"Yes," Qian Cheng nodded lightly and glanced at Mr. Mu.
In the years they hadn’t seen each other, Mr. Mu looked much older.
Lin Zian watched the grandfather and grandson standing at the door, staring at each other, and then laughed, "Sir, Young Master Cheng, why don’t you go inside and talk."
