583: Nuannuan's Promise

Nuannuan's Promise

Zhong Nuannuan knew that Old Master had always wanted to see the Chi family thrive in his lifetime. In her previous life, not only did she fail to give birth to a son and a daughter for the Chi family, she even caused Old Master's only kin to disappear.2

Therefore, Zhong Nuannuan nodded sincerely at the old man's words that meant more between the lines. "Okay, then you must train your body well, Grandpa. In the future, you will be in charge of taking care of all great-grandchildren."

All!!!

The old master was alarmed at this word.

That meant that they would have at least two children in the future!

The old master, who had already been smiling from ear to ear, was now grinning with no ends.

"Good, good, good! In the future, your job is to keep enjoying yourself; Chi Yang will be responsible to earn money for the family, and I'll be responsible for taking care of all your children!"

The old master felt like his heart could jump out of his ribcage and start flying. It was as if he was looking at a group of great-grandchildren surrounding him and yelling 'Grandpa'.

However, Zhong Nuannuan was unable to see what the old master was imagining. If she could, she would realize that what the old master was imagining was something akin to a scene from the Calabash Brothers.

With Zhong Nuannuan's help, the old master quickly reached the sixth floor. After entering the house, he sighed and said, "Nuannuan, you're really good at helping people, lass."

Zhong Nuannuan smiled and got the old master settled down. She wanted to let the two guards in, but the old master excused them first.

Noticing the hesitation in the guards, Zhong Nuannuan smiled and assured them, "Don't worry, you can leave Grandpa to me. This is the military base courtyard. Big Brother Chi Yang will be back soon. Nothing will happen."

The old master was suddenly stunned. Internally, he was thinking that since she was so smart, could she have figured out his identity in the first place?

Unexpectedly, Zhong Nuannuan said, "I'm a student who's about to enter medical school. In addition to knowing acupuncture, Grandpa will definitely be fine with me."

The two guards could not say anything in rebuttal, so they left and wandered downstairs.

The old master asked, "Lass, which medical school do you plan to enroll at in the future? There are a few medical schools in Emperor District that are quite good. If you want to enroll at any, Grandpa can make it happen for you! You can enroll at any one of them."

In order to lure his granddaughter-in-law to Emperor District, the old master—who had never approved of using back doors in his entire life—decided to go all out.

Chi Yang would definitely return to Emperor District after completing his mission. If Nuannuan was still in Jiang District by then, would they not have to spend less time together? Then, how could they fulfill his wish of having many great-grandchildren?

Therefore, he must make his granddaughter-in-law go back to Emperor District first. If her grades were not good enough or that she was not suitable to be a doctor, she could stay at home after graduation. It was fine if she could stay at home to assist her husband and educate their children, too!

Zhong Nuannuan knew very well what the old master was thinking. She replied with a smile, "Don't worry, Grandpa. My results are good. I don't need your help. I'll get into Emperor District Military Medical University on my own."

At this point, the old man's heart was leaping with joy.

"Really? You're going to study at the Military Medical University? Are you going to join the military too?"

"I've already told Big Brother Chi Yang that when I become a military doctor, I'll follow him when he gets sent out on missions. Grandpa, you've seen my skills, so you can leave Big Brother Chi Yang to me. With me around, he'll return safely the same way he leaves."

"Good, good, good! As long as both of you are well, Grandpa will be fine too!"

In the old master's heart, Zhong Nuannuan's every word hit the nail on the head. Tears started welling up in his eyes.

He only had one grandson—the Chi family only had one descendant. Nobody could have imagined how worried the old master was when Chi Yang was outside.
