After Yan Qingdi's death, the Yan family remained completely still, an eerie calmness that was terrifying.
People outside were all speculating what the Yan family was really thinking?
Were they just holding back?
But considering the usual arrogance of such powerful families, it was absolutely impossible for them to just tolerate this. However, the Yan family didn't make any move, leaving everyone bewildered, curious about what kind of trick the Yan family was playing.
Now, Yan Zhengrong had brought Yan Qingdi's father, Yan Jinglin, here.
What was he here for?
Was it because of Yan Qingdi's matter?
This was everyone's instinct—instinctively thinking of Yan Qingdi, instinctively thinking that Yan Zhengrong brought Yan Jinglin to hold someone accountable.
Ye Xunhuan didn't know Yan Zhengrong or Yan Jinglin, so he didn't react much. However, after seeing the other people acting as if they had seen a ghost, Ye Xunhuan slowly realized that something was off.
But Ye Xunhuan didn't ask anything, he just sat quietly on the side.
Faced with the slightly suspicious and vigilant gazes of everyone, Yan Zhengrong remained completely calm, even smiling lightly, "Arriving early doesn't compare to a timely arrival, I didn't expect you were still here, Brother Qin!"
As the saying goes, don't attack a smiling face. Even though Qin Pojun knew Yan Zhengrong's coming was surely not good, facing the smiling Yan Zhengrong, Qin Pojun couldn't possibly pull a long face, so he said directly, "Looks like you haven't eaten, Brother Yan?"
Hearing these three words, Ye Xunhuan's heart trembled slightly, and he finally understood why everyone seemed so strange after seeing Yan Zhengrong and Yan Jinglin.
They were people from the Yan family.
"Brother Qin, you guessed wrong this time. I've already eaten," Yan Zhengrong said with a cheerful smile, giving off an image harmless to both humans and animals, "But if Brother Qin wants me to continue eating here, my stomach can still accommodate more!"
"If you wouldn't mind, I'd be more than happy for you to sit down!"
"Old Brother, you're embarrassing me. I can't disrespect anyone, but I must give you respect!"
Although Yan Zhengrong was not much younger than Qin Pojun, he always maintained a courteous demeanor in front of Qin Pojun.
Anyone who didn't know would definitely think these two old men had a great relationship.
But in reality, it wasn't like that. Still, even though their relationship wasn't great, it hasn't reached the point where they'd fight as soon as they met.
"Song Yan, get Brother Yan a chair!" Qin Pojun said directly to Song Yan, "No, make that two, let Jinglin sit too!"
"I hope I'm not disturbing you, Old Brother?"
"What's the issue!" Qin Pojun said blandly, "If I visit your house, would you drive me out?"
"Old Brother, you love to joke, if you came to my place, I'd certainly welcome you warmly." Yan Zhengrong said with a smile.
"That would be great!" Qin Pojun said heartily, "Come, sit, don't just stand there!"
After Song Yan brought the chair, he placed it right next to Qin Pojun.
Yan Zhengrong didn't stand on ceremony and sat right down.
After sitting down, Yan Zhengrong gradually fixed his gaze on Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi.
"Old Brother, is this your grandson and granddaughter-in-law?"
Qin Pojun nodded, "Exactly!"
"Indeed a fine-looking fellow, truly worthy of being Phoenix's offspring!" Yan Zhengrong praised without reservation, "And this young lady is also quite beautiful, you've got a real blessing, Old Brother!"
Upon hearing Yan Zhengrong's words, Qin Pojun chuckled lightly, "Brother Yan, you're really quite the joker, I don't have such good fortune!"
"Come on, don't gloat after getting the benefits!" Yan Zhengrong said somewhat disdainfully, "Back then I almost broke your door hoping to have Phoenix marry into my family, but you refused, otherwise he would be my grandson now!"
"I never refused, it was Phoenix who disagreed, what could I do about it!" Qin Pojun said helplessly, "After all, the child grew up, she had her own thoughts, I couldn't change that!"
Ye Xunhuan was taken aback, the Yan family had proposed to his mother?
He really didn't know anything about this.
"Come, Xunhuan, Ruoxi, let me introduce you," Qin Pojun gradually shifted his gaze to Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi, "This is your Grandfather Yan, and this is Uncle Yan!"
Ye Xunhuan was only used to having others act like his grandson, not the other way around. So he just nodded and gave Yan Zhengrong a slight smile as a greeting, while Qiu Ruoxi tactfully addressed Grandfather Yan.
Hearing Qiu Ruoxi call Yan Zhengrong grandpa, Ye Xunhuan thought he should have a good talk with Qiu Ruoxi later, to stop casually calling others grandpa.
Especially since this involved the Yan family, who knows what they've come for?
Anyway, Ye Xunhuan thought no matter what the reason was, it surely wasn't something good.
The next moment, Yan Zhengrong took out the gift he had prepared beforehand and handed it to Qiu Ruoxi, "I heard Phoenix's son came back with a wife in a hurry; I didn't prepare anything too grand for you, but I hope you !"
Yan Zhengrong's action left everyone stunned. What was this old fox up to, what was he planning?
Why was he giving a meeting gift to Qiu Ruoxi?
For a moment, everyone's heart was filled with unprecedented confusion.
Upon seeing this scene, a glimmer passed through Qin Pojun's seasoned eyes, but it vanished quickly.
Faced with the sudden gift from Yan Zhengrong, Qiu Ruoxi was momentarily at a loss, "This..."
"Ruoxi, take it!" Qin Pojun said softly, "This old miser barely ever gives gifts, take this rare one-time generosity!"
Hearing Qin Pojun's words, Qiu Ruoxi had no choice but to accept it reluctantly and thanked Yan Zhengrong!
As for this, Yan Zhengrong just gave a symbolic nod in response to Qiu Ruoxi before redirecting his gaze to Ye Xunhuan, then turned to Qin Pojun saying, "Old Brother, your grandson is great, clear-eyed and handsome, he will surely achieve great things in the future!"
"I'll remember your kind words!" Qin Pojun said with a smile, "I hope what you say comes true."
"It's certain." Yan Zhengrong confidently declared, "With him, the Qin family will have nothing to worry about for a hundred years!"
Yan Zhengrong's words were loud, so almost everyone heard them.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.
Previously, because of the Fenghua Group, tensions were high in the Qin family. Now Yan Zhengrong's words clearly suggested that if this son became the successor, the Qin family could prosper for a hundred years.
What did this old man mean?
Instead of avenging his grandson, he was stirring things up for Ye Xunhuan to become the head of the Qin family in front of Qin Pojun!
