“What is it? Tell me.” When Chen Ping heard Elder Liu say that there was something that needed their consent, he felt a sense of trepidation in his heart. This was because he did not know what matter would make Elder Liu need their consent. Chen Ping was not the only one who had this thought. Liu Juan also had the same thought. She did not understand why this rich old man from the city would need their consent. As for Chen Haoguo and Chen Haoxuan, they didn’t have any thoughts in their hearts. However, their little ears pricked up. 

“It’s like this. I like Meng’er very much. Moreover, she has quite the talent to study medicine. Therefore, I want to take her as my god-granddaughter.” Elder Liu smiled and said very casually. 

When Chen Ping and Liu Juan heard Elder Liu’s words, their eyes widened in surprise. They never thought that Elder Liu would suggest such a thing. From their point of view, Elder Liu, the old master of the city, would never take a fancy to someone from the poor countryside. 

“Elder Liu, about this.” Chen Ping was in a bit of a dilemma and didn’t know how to answer. Elder Liu’s suggestion was too sudden. The husband and wife weren’t mentally prepared at all. 

He didn’t know whether he should agree or not. 

“I know. I was too abrupt in this matter. However, I really like Meng’er and want to acknowledge her as my god-granddaughter. Don’t worry. I know that it’s not a casual matter to acknowledge her as my god-granddaughter. There’s a ceremony, and I will prepare everything.” Elder Liu wiped away the smile on his face, he looked at Chen Ping seriously and said. 

Chen Ping looked at Elder Liu’s serious expression and thought about Elder Liu’s character. His heart relaxed. He thought that his family was not a wealthy family. With Elder Liu’s status, he would not want anything from his family. From the looks of it, Elder Liu really liked his daughter. “Elder Liu, it’s her fortune that you want to acknowledge our Meng’er as your god-granddaughter.” 

Chen Ping agreed, but Liu Juan was still a little unwilling. It wasn’t easy for her to get this daughter of hers, so she couldn’t bear to give it to anyone else. However, since her husband had already agreed, no matter how unwilling she was, she could only swallow it down. 

“Then it’s settled. I’ll go back and prepare later. When I’m ready, I’ll come back.” Elder Liu knew that there was nothing he couldn’t handle personally. However, now that he had personally heard Chen Ping agree to acknowledge Chen Meng’er as his god-granddaughter, the joy in his heart couldn’t help but spill out. 

He didn’t know why. Whenever Elder Liu thought of Chen Meng’er’s soft and cute voice and the way she would sweetly call him “grandfather” made his heart go unbelievably soft. 

Outside the house, Elder Liu’s driver, who was following behind Chen Meng’er and was about to walk in with her, had a surprised expression on his face when he heard what his employer had said inside the house. He had not expected that… his employer would take the initiative to tell people who he wanted to acknowledge as his god-granddaughter. 

If Elder Liu’s driver was so surprised, it was not because Elder Liu’s status was so precious, or because Chen Meng’er’s family’s wealth was too different from Elder Liu’s family’s. He was so surprised because of what Elder Liu had said. 

Before this, those people in the capital and abroad had racked their brains, wanting to acknowledge Elder Liu as their godfather or god-grandfather. But every time, these people who came to his door were chased out by Elder Liu. He had said it. He didn’t need these people with ulterior motives to take care of him and send him to his death. 

After seeing those people fail time and time again and get kicked out, the subordinates of Elder Liu once thought that their employer, Elder Liu, would be alone for the rest of his life. 

He did not expect to hear such explosive news when he went out with his employer this time. When Elder Liu’s driver thought of this, he could not help but look at the short, three-year-old little girl standing in front of him with a complicated gaze. 

He really could not see what was so special about this little girl that his employer valued her so much that he wanted to acknowledge her as his god-granddaughter. 

And Elder Liu’s driver knew in his heart that if his employer really acknowledged this little girl as his god-granddaughter, then this little girl would be their little master. 

Chen Meng’er, who was standing in front of Elder Liu’s driver, was listening attentively to the conversation between her parents and Elder Liu in the room. She did not notice the expression on the driver’s face who was following behind her. Moreover, she was not the least bit surprised that her parents finally agreed to her recognizing Elder Liu as her god-grandfather. 

She had long known that her parents were no match for Elder Liu. 

Chen Meng’er let Elder Liu look for her parents because she tacitly agreed to acknowledge Elder Liu as her god-grandfather. She clearly knew that she was not the Qu Meng’er from her previous life. She did not have any prideful status or extraordinary wealth. This also meant that Elder Liu had no hidden motives for acknowledging her as his god-granddaughter..
