Chapter 636 - Chapter 593

Elder Qu saw that it was getting late, so he took his grandson, Qu Haoxiang, and left. Elder Liu was out of Elder Qu’s expectations today. He actually asked the two of them to stay for dinner.

However, whether Elder Liu was being polite or sincere, he could only ponder.

Elder Qu had received important news today. When he went back, he had to discuss this with his youngest son and daughter-in-law. When Meng’er’s adoptive parents came to the capital, they had to prepare some gifts and pay them a visit to thank them for all the years that they had taken good care of Meng’er. Of course, the most important thing was to think of a way to make them nod their heads and make Meng’er acknowledge her family.

After coming out of the Green Gang, Qu Haoxiang’s mood was very low. The disappointment on his face could not be hidden no matter how hard he tried.

After thinking about his own matters, Elder Qu finally noticed the strange behavior of his grandson. He asked with concern, “Haoxiang, what happened? Didn’t you just have fun with Little Apple?” Elder Qu guessed, “Is it because Grandpa didn’t agree to stay for dinner?”

Qu Haoxiang shook his head and pouted even more.

“What’s wrong? On a closer look, you really look quite similar to Meng’er. Heh, no wonder you’re twins.” Elder Qu deliberately said to tease his grandson.

“Grandpa, tell me, does sis like her two older brothers more? Are her two older brothers more important in her heart?” Qu Haoxiang had been holding back this question for a long time. When he was in the Green Gang, Qu Haoxiang saw Chen Meng’er’s eyes light up when she talked about her two older brothers. He did not feel good about it and wanted to ask.

Elder Qu was stunned by his grandson’s question. He did not expect his grandson to be unhappy because of this. He was even more surprised that his grandson would ask such a question.

“How could it be?” Elder Qu’s answer was so guilty no matter how he heard it.

Elder Qu knew clearly that in Chen Meng’er’s heart, her adoptive family’s weight was far greater than the Qu family’s weight. However, this was also unavoidable. After all, they had lived together for more than ten years.

Thinking about his own granddaughter not being close to him but being close to someone else, Elder Qu’s heart also did not feel good.

“Grandfather, how could it not be? You didn’t see it just now. When my sister mentioned her two brothers, her eyes lit up. But, I’m her biological brother. I’m the one who’s related to her by blood.”

“Haoxiang, although we’re your sister’s biological relatives, that family has raised your sister for more than ten years after all. It’s normal to have love for them.” Elder Qu’s heart was bitter, however, when he saw his grandson’s current state, he quickly tried to cheer him up. Otherwise, when Chen Meng’er’s adoptive family arrived, his grandson would do something impulsive and do something bad to Chen Meng’er’s two older brothers. It would be terrible. This might render their previous efforts useless. “We’ve been separated from your sister for more than ten years. In these past ten years, if it weren’t for her adoptive family, we wouldn’t even know if we would be able to see your sister again. So, after they come to the capital in a few days, you have to treat them well. Don’t give them the cold shoulder, understand? Moreover, the relationship has to be cultivated slowly. In the future, you’ll have plenty of time to cultivate a relationship with your sister.”

Qu Haoxiang did not know what to do for a moment. It was because he thought too highly of his sister, Chen Meng’er, that he got into such a difficult position. As soon as his grandfather said that, he turned around. “Yes, I understand, Grandpa. I understand what to do.”
