Chapter 597: 173 Can’t go a day without seeing you_4

"Just went to the hospital last week, my blood pressure was high."

"Then you should call the hospital and have them prepared, it’s said they drank quite a bit tonight, and it was the strong stuff."

Qin Mu had almost finished speaking when he turned to look at Jing Feng, with a particularly serious look in his eyes.

Jing Feng’s brow was furrowed with worry after hearing his words.

"How’s your grandfather?"

"The old man’s health is generally okay! But his blood pressure is a bit high, too."

As Mu Yichen spoke, he too furrowed his brow, thinking, these two stubborn old men.

By the time the two elder gentlemen came out, it was almost half an hour later, both of their faces were livid, and neither paid any attention to the other.

"Little Feng! Let’s go!"

"Yichen, let’s go!"

Each of the old grandfathers called for their own grandson, neither willing to give in to the other.

Jing Feng didn’t dare delay, immediately extinguishing his cigarette and went to support his grandfather, only to be promptly pushed away by the old man: "I’m not that frail yet!"

Jing Feng...

But he had been using a cane for several years already!

"Help me, I’m a bit drunk!"

The elder of the Mu Family, however, whispered to his grandson.

Mu Yichen then raised his hand to wrap it around his grandfather’s shoulders, and the old man even grunted.

They took separate elevators to the underground parking garage, each helping their family’s old man to the car, too rushed to say goodbye before each driving off.

Mu Yichen had just driven out of the parking garage when he received a call from his supervisor: "This Miss Lin comes from D City, and I just heard some juicy gossip, she’s quite close to our new Miss Su!"

"Got it!"

Mu Yichen said and hung up the phone, then looked at the elder who was dozing off in the back seat.

"How many drinks did you have?"

Mu Yichen asked.

"Hmph! They even dared to serve me plain water, I see you’re tired of living!"

The old man got even angrier upon being asked.

"You know full well how high your blood pressure is, the whole family is waiting for you, afraid you’d get drunk, what else could I do?"

Mu Yichen was very reasonable.

"Hmph! Don’t use the family to threaten me! Your plain water has made a mockery of my dignity."

"The old man from the Jing Family was drinking plain water too, does that make you feel a bit more balanced?"

Upon hearing his grandson’s words, the old man didn’t say anything else, as both old men had realized back then that they were drinking plain water. They kept silent about it, knowing that their health was paramount—they weren’t ready to kick the bucket yet. So, when the waiters came around to pour the drinks, despite normally hating outsiders’ presence, they didn’t ask the waiters to leave.

"That old geezer from the Jing Family is becoming more domineering with age, as if he still rules the world. I was far more imposing than him back in the day."

The old man suddenly began to complain again.

The so-called gathering of old war buddies was just a chance for each to boast of their valiant past.

Mu Yichen glanced at the rearview mirror and chose to keep his mouth shut.

When they returned home, everyone hurried to the doorway to greet them.

Seeing the commotion, the old man said: "What’s all this about? We were just out for a drink, not going to battle!"

"Oh boy, you nearly scared us to death, just stop with that talk!"

Feng Fanghua and Mu Zihao said as they crowded around him and guided him inside.

"Your son served me plain water, what’re you afraid of?"

"I’m afraid you and Jing Feng’s granddad would start a fight!"

Feng Fanghua continued.

"We’re all old bones now, nothing works well except for our mouths, what’s there to fight about?"

The old man muttered to himself.

He couldn’t hold back and after everyone had left, the two old men sneakily finished off the leftover liquor before coming out. Normally at home, they were not allowed to drink, and were they also supposed to abstain when out?

So, during their argument, they conveniently finished their leftover drinks.

Qin Mu followed behind, stopping only when they reached the old man’s room. Mu Yichen, with hands in his pockets, watched as the old man was helped onto the bed: "Now that we’ve safely brought the person home, let’s go back to sleep. Is Huanhuan asleep?"

Mu Yichen said, turning to look at his wife.

"Just fell asleep!"

Qin Mu answered softly.

Just as the two were about to take their leave, Feng Fanghua suddenly turned around: "Mu Yichen, you sleep in the guest room!"

Mu Yichen had already turned to leave, but hearing this, he turned back with a mischievous look and then walked out with his arm around Qin Mu.

Qin Mu...

"Mu Yichen, I told you to sleep in the guest room, did you hear me?"

Feng Fanghua tried to follow them out, but Mu Zihao held her back: "Didn’t we tell you not to worry?"

Feng Fanghua...

"Hmph! Cursed with worrying! Always worrying about one thing or another!"

The old man lay in bed and said, then hurried them out: "You two as well, get out, you’re both so annoying!"
