Chapter 408 - Had she already conquered the future black-belly business tycoon just like that?
Sun Wuyang’s parents have not yet been relocated from the Northwestern. It would be very easy for Xiao Zhenting to take care of this.
Nevertheless, he owed the Sun’s a favor, however insignificant that might be. But, if he lift a finger against the Sun’s, certainly there would be those who would accuse him of being ungrateful.
Old Mr. Wen wasn’t so much worried about the Old Stuckup. He worried more about Xuelu and her siblings being dragged into this.
As such, the Wen would need to meddle in this.
If the Sun’s was a problem, they would just have to make sure that they would never be able to return to Capital City.

It was an odd feeling to have a grandfather out of the blue.
Seeing how quiet she was, Commander Xiao worried that his stern look was a deterrent to her.
As such, he curved his lips and do his best to look gentle. “Xuelu, Old Wen mentioned that the place you are staying at is a rental. Is that so?”
Tong Xuelu nodded, “Yes, that is right.”
Commander Xiao said, “Renting is a lot of money. Why don’t I buy a courtyard house for the four of you and you can move in there.”
Xiao Yang, who was driving, “……”
Did it not cost money to buy a courtyard house?
In addition, he had been working under Commander Xiao for years and had never seen him like this before. He had a stern look but he was forcing himself to look gentle. Either way one looked at it, it looked awkward as heck.
He dared not say that out loud though. Bad things would bestow upon him had Commander Xiao ever found out about it.
Tong Xuelu replied, “We will see.”
Courtyard house was nice, of course, but moving was a hassle. And she also worried about losing a great neighbour like Grandma Shen.
The Wei’s had helped her greatly. She would not have been able to take care of her three siblings all by herself.
Her indifferent look impressed Commander Xiao even more.
Most people who found out that they have a commander grandfather would want to butter up to him the first chance they got.
Tong Xuelu, on the other hand, was not the type who’d kowtow to power. She even said to him “And I’m your father!” the first time they met. Her explosive personality was a lot like his own!
The more she didn’t seem to care about receiving anything from him, the more he wanted to make up for her and her siblings.
Menzhi was gone as was his son and daughter-in-law. All he had left were they grandkids. He must take good care of them.
His position was located in the Northwestern District and it would not be easy for him to transfer over here.
But he would do anything within his power to make that happen. Push come to shove, he can resign from his position.
He was in despair after he had broken up with Menzhi back in the days and he had further injured his family jewel in battle.
As such, he decided against getting married and ruining another woman. That was, of course, only part of the reasons. He also had never gotten over Menzhi.
He thought he would be single and alone for life but, low and behold, he suddenly had a few grandchildren out of nowhere. Heaven had looked down upon him and smiled.
It was very unfortunate that Menzhi was gone.
Tong Xuelu went to check on the restaurant and only went home after she had made sure that everything was in good order.
Those at the restaurant saw her coming and going in a car and all of their jaws dropped open.
Their Manager Tong was going places. Not only was she able to have the restaurant upgraded to a tier 1 restaurant, now she was being transported in a car!
That made others jealous and envy of her!
Tong Jiaxin was not yet home when Tong Xuelu had returned home.
Tong Xuelu told Tong Jiaxin by the window about their real grandfather.
Tong Jiaming had found out a little earlier. He was still in shock after processing the information for an entire afternoon.
Tong Xuelu said, “What are your thoughts? Do you want to recognize him as our grandfather?”
Tong Jiaming went silent for a little while and said, “Whatever you want to do.”
Tong Xuelu felt that he had been more dependent on her ever since his last illness.
Had she already conquered the futue black-belly business tycoon just like that?
If so, that was truly a pleasant surprise.
