Old master PEI frowned and was about to refuse, but Feng Zhongliang said firmly, â
âOld general, please donât reject me. All these years, Iâve never asked you for anything. Just treat it as me doing my best for the younger generation.â
The PEI family felt that Feng Zhongliang had paid too much for the renovation of Jiang se and PEI Yiâs wedding. However, in Feng Zhongliangâs mind, he felt that he had paid too little.
If Jiang se had not been unexpectedly reincarnated and was still his granddaughter, Feng Zhongliang would not mind paying ten or even a hundred times more for her marriage with PEI Yi.
It was a pity that because of these âaccidentsâ, he had to hold back his hands when it came to his granddaughterâs marriage.
Feng Zhongliang had always been a tough person. Jiang se had grown up by his side and knew that he had been in contact with the PEI family for many years. However, he had never used his close relationship with the PEI family to ask old master PEI for anything. Now, because of her, he had to let go of his pride and dignity that he had held on to for so many years. She could not help but feel sad.
âYou know that Iâve been running a small business all these years. I have nothing but some money left.â
He placed his walking stick aside and massaged his legs.
âTo be honest, I watched Yi grow up. In my heart, I actually see him as my grandson.â PEI Yi and Jiang se could tell what he was hinting at. When old master PEI saw him massaging his legs, his eyes flickered. Feng Zhongliang continued,
I like Sese a lot too. She calls me Grandpa, not my real granddaughter. he paused for a moment, gritted his teeth, and tensed his cheeks.
âBut I like them more than my own children. I just want to do something for the children. These decorations are nothing. When I die, I want to leave Sese something to remember.â
The PEI family had already been surprised when he said that he would pay for the renovation. Now that he had revealed that he would be giving the assets to Jiang se in the future, the PEI family could not help but be shocked.
Feng Zhongliang was rich, and everyone knew that Zhongnan industries was a big company. Even if he leaked some of it out between his fingers, it would still be a shocking figure.
Old master PEI looked at his leg. It was the after-effect of a gunshot wound when he was on a mission when he was young. It became more obvious as he got older, and he had to rely on crutches to leave and go.
Feng Zhongliang had never brought up his leg. Today, he was going to renovate PEI Yi and Jiang SEâs house. No matter how much he said, old master PEI could reject him. However, when he slapped his leg, old master PEI could not say anything else.
The atmosphere was a little tense at the mention of these things. PEI Yi knew that Jiang se must be feeling upset. If he rejected Feng Zhongliangâs good intentions, he would be sad and Jiang se would be upset.
âSince thatâs the case, why donât I just leave the renovation to you?â
He squeezed Jiang SEâs soft hand. When he said this, Jiang se turned around and smiled at him. She leaned her head on his shoulder, which made him feel very happy. He did not even take PEI jinhuaiâs angry glares to heart.
âYou child, Yingluo.â
Old lady PEI looked at PEI Yi helplessly. Contrary to the PEI familyâs feelings, Feng Zhongliang was overjoyed. He slapped his thigh and said,
âThatâs a good idea!â
His happiness was overflowing in his words.
âIt just so happens that I donât have anything to do these days. If Xiao ning trusts me, let me keep an eye on this matter.â
Lady PEI did not think that her sonâs impolite words would really make Feng Zhongliang take it to heart.
To be honest, this matter was about the PEI family marrying a daughter-in-law and had nothing to do with Feng Zhongliang. He acted as if he was about to marry off his granddaughter and was busy with everything. PEI Yiâs words, which lady PEI thought were rude, not only did he not mind, but he also seemed very willing to help them with these things.
After Feng Zhongliang said this, of course, lady PEI could not say that she did not trust him. how could I not trust you? Iâm just afraid that this matter will be too tiring.
She glared at her son as well. PEI Yi was sitting on the sofa with his left arm spread open on the back of the sofa. He had locked Jiang se within his embrace. He only smiled when he faced his parents âdisapproving gazes. He took all the blame that the elders had not said.
whatâs there to be tired about? itâs just a good exercise.
Feng Zhongliangâs enthusiasm for this matter was somewhat beyond the expectations of the PEI family. When everyone was looking at each other, old master PEI looked at PEI Yi meaningfully, then at Feng Zhongliang, and finally decided, â
âAlright then, this matter is settled.â
Since old master PEI had spoken, everyone naturally could not say anything more. Feng Zhongliang heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at his granddaughter again and could not help but smile.
After dinner, both Jiang se and Feng Zhongliang wanted to go home. PEI Yi was supposed to send Jiang SE Home, but old master PEI asked him to stay before he left. He said that he had something to say to him.
Jiang se could give her grandfather a lift and have a few words with him.
It was only tonight that she realized how deeply Grandpa had been affected by the wedding.
If he wanted to attend Jiang SEâs wedding, he could not wait for Jiang se and PEI Yi to propose a toast to him as an elder. He could not hold her hand and hand her over to PEI Yi as an elder either.
Even a simple house decoration would attract the PEI familyâs attention if she was too eager.
While Jiang se and PEI Yi were immersed in their happiness, she did not expect her grandfather to still be worried about these things.
She did not drive, but sat in Feng Zhongliangâs car. Liu sat in the front seat and drove, looking back from time to time.
It was not only the PEI family who was shocked by Feng Zhongliangâs words tonight, but also Xiao Liu.
He was aware of Feng Zhongliangâs plans. He also knew that Feng Zhongliang had always treated Jiang se differently. However, he did not expect it to be this different.
Jiang se left the PEI residence. As soon as she got into the car, she started crying. She could not stop her tears. She recalled how her grandfather had shown his weakness and how he had massaged his legs. Both old master PEI and Jiang se knew this very well.
No one knew better than Jiang se how prideful he was. He had never bothered to talk about his injured leg. Sometimes, he would be so stubborn that he would not even let anyone help him up. However, tonight, because of the renovation, he had used all sorts of methods.
âWhy are you crying?â
She was brought up by Feng Zhongliang, and no one knew better than Feng Zhongliang what she was thinking.
In the beginning, he kept a straight face and put on a serious expression to hide his feelings. However, when he saw Jiang se crying, he could not hold it in any longer. He quickly handed her a handkerchief.
âYouâre an adult and about to get married. Whatâs there to cry about?â
He understood her thoughts.
Grandpa has lived for so long. What kind of situation has he not experienced? why do I need you to worry about me? â
In fact, he was also sad, but he could not say it out loud, so as not to make her cry even more.
âWhatâs the big deal about holding your hand? It doesnât matter whether I drank the toast you made with Yi or not. Whatâs important is that Iâm still alive and will live to see you and Yi together, get married, and live a happy life.â
In fact, he had already thought about these principles countless times.
Sometimes, he couldnât sleep at night, but it wasnât that he didnât feel suffocated. However, these âsmall thingsâ seemed insignificant compared to the âbig thingâ of his granddaughterâs happiness.
âLook, didnât your Grandpa PEI agree to let me help you renovate your new house tonight? Youâre an adult now, so stop crying.â
...
Although he was reprimanding her sternly, his actions were very gentle. He wiped Jiang SEâs tears away and touched her hair. He felt a myriad of emotions well up in his heart.
âYouâve grown so big in the blink of an eye.â
He was emotional and his words were unintentional, but Xiao Liu, who was in front, felt as if a storm had been set off in his heart. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong with the old manâs words.
Feng Zhongliang and Jiang se had only known each other for a few years. Why did the old manâs tone sound as if he had watched her grow up?
There were not many girls he had watched grow up. In the end, the one he was closest to was Feng Nan, who he had always kept by his side.
Xiao Liuâs hair stood on end, and he was no longer in the mood to drive. He wanted to ask, but he didnât dare to ask too much.
Iâm not thinking about anything else now. Iâm just waiting for you to get married and see you and ah Yi live happily in the future. If I can live a long life and see you two have a child, Iâll be satisfied with everything. Nothing else is important. He mumbled to himself. It was unclear if he was trying to convince Jiang se or himself.
âItâs not important, itâs not important.â
He repeated it a few times, but it only made Jiang SEâs heart feel heavier. She held her grandfatherâs arm and cried even harder.
In the PEI familyâs house, old master PEI had asked PEI Yi to stay behind for a chat. The study room door was closed, and no one knew what the grandfather and grandson were talking about. All they knew was that old master PEI seemed to be in a daze for the next few days.
Once the Spring Festival was over, Jiang se got busy. She had to take a group photo with the PEI family and a wedding photo with PEI Yi.
...
Other than that, she had to interact with a large number of relatives in the PEI family. At the same time, she had to learn some things from lady PEI. Her schedule was even more packed than when she was working.
What made lady PEI see her in a different light was that she had originally thought that she might not be able to bear with these heavy schedules, but she had endured the pressure. Even when she was not studying in some courses, she performed exceptionally well, as if she had been studying these courses all along and had picked them up easily.
At the same time, she had also found a body trainer to maintain her figure. She wanted to present her most beautiful side on the day of the wedding. All these things surprised lady PEI with her sonâs unique taste. It also made her even more satisfied with Jiang se.
The wedding was approaching day by day, and Feng Zhongliang had been keeping an eye on the house. He had been very serious about this matter, and often went to the site to supervise the work. No matter how much money he spent, he only wanted the best.
It was mid-July, two months away from Jiang SEâs wedding. Mo Anqi took a soft ruler and measured Jiang SEâs waist, arms, and hips. The more she measured, the more jealous she became.
She had not appeared in the public eye for the past few months, but she still maintained her figure at her peak. Mo Anqi recorded her figure and asked, â
âHow did you do it?â
As Jiang SEâs personal assistant, mo Anqi had access to Jiang SEâs schedule as well. She was busy every day with flower arrangement, tea ceremony, cooking, and horsemanship. She also had to enter the PEI familyâs private class to teach her eldest daughter-in-law. At the same time, she also had to take care of her studies at school. Even under such circumstances, she could still persist in training with the body trainer every day. Mo Anqi was almost at her witâs end.
by the way, after the wedding, sister Xia said that you have a two-month honeymoon period.
Mo Anqi had been with Jiang se recently and had seen a lot. She knew that for a family like the PEI family, the end of the wedding did not mean the end of the ceremony. Perhaps Jiang se would not be free for a period of time after the wedding. Some of the elders in the family had to be visited one by one, and some guests who were visiting the PEI residence had to be received. At the same time, besides PEI Yi and Jiang SEâs personal matters, she also had to give the public an explanation. Jiang se might not have any ârest timeâ for the next two months.
Huo Zhiming has decided to bring âthe suspectâ to the France Film Festival in March next year. Jiang se understood what mo Anqi meant. She was referring to the fact that Jiang SEâs âmarriage leaveâ might end in around a month and she would have to participate in the promotional work for âsuspectâ.
Due to her wedding this year, Jiang se had not filmed any movies or participated in any events. However, this did not reduce her exposure.
Firstly, it was because the final box office of Godâs salvation had reached 5.3 billion this year, breaking the historical box office record for Chinese movies. At its peak, the number of people watching the movie reached 30 million nationwide.
The foreign box office performance was even more outstanding. After it was released in North America, it only took 37 days to break the North American box office record of over 700 million. In the end, it earned 980 million, becoming the first in North Americaâs history.
It was conceivable that for a long time after that, Godâs salvation would lie at the top of the pyramid, being looked up to by its successors.
âThe salvation of Godâ ended perfectly with a global box office of 3.3 billion dollars. Although the movie had already gone offline, the various figures created a unique miracle. It was included in the âcentury-old filmmakerâs album and would be mentioned frequently in the future.
All these had established Jiang SEâs status as the top female star in the country. No one could compete with her.
Even if she didnât have any work this year, with Godâs salvation, it was enough to make up for everything.
Moreover, she had announced her marriage, which made her in the limelight. The topics about her were always the favorite of netizens and fans. Even if she had not appeared on the screen for half a year or appeared in any events, as long as her name was mentioned in the news, she would always reap a large wave of traffic and attract the attention of netizens and fans.
The film âsuspectâ had already been finalized last year. After more than a year of post-production, it was set to be released after the France Film Festival next year. After the movie was scheduled to be released, it caused another wave of discussion.
The movie was another one of Huo Zhimingâs works after so many years. This old manâs previous works had been ridiculed many times. Some people in the industry were not optimistic about his movie at first. However, since the female lead was Tao cen and Jiang se was acting as her âsupporting characterâ, many people were already getting excited before it even aired.
