?Chapter 95: 95, Familiarizing and Stoking Feelings (an update)_1 Chapter 95: 95, Familiarizing and Stoking Feelings (an update)_1 In the study room, Elder An and Elder Quan were playing chess and sipping tea, occasionally chatting about national affairs in a relaxed manner.
Aqiu pushed open the door and walked in quickly, his face slightly tense.
“Aqiu, come and see, Zhen Guo will surely lose this round of chess.” Old Master An laughed heartily, seeing Aqiu come in, he gestured him over.
Aqiu did not smile, instead he lowered his voice, “Master, Miss Jian Qing is here, Misses from Xiang family have also arrived. There seems to be some dispute in the living room downstairs and the large vase near the stairs has been knocked over.”
Upon hearing this, Old Master An dropped his chess piece, looking tense, “What, is Jian Qing injured?”
Aqiu hurriedly replied, “No worries, Miss Jian Qing is not injured, it was one of the Misses from the Xiang family who accidentally knocked over the vase.”
Hearing that Jian Qing was not hurt, Old Master An sighed in relief, “That’s a relief”.
“Where is Miss Jian Qing now?”
“I heard from the servant that Miss Jian Qing has gone up to the fourth floor.” Aqiu said.
Elder An suddenly lost interest in continuing the chess game and was about to ask Aqiu to find Jian Qing, but when he raised his head, he saw someone at the door and instantaneous joy sparkled in his wrinkled face.
“Jian Qing!”
Old Master Quan followed his gaze and when he saw the person who slowly walked in, there was a sudden sigh in his heart.
He didn’t get a chance to take a closer look at her during the last banquet. Now, looking at her closely, she was truly stunning.
She was strikingly similar, she resembled her mother so closely, as if they were carved from the same mold.
Seeing that Old Master An was unharmed, Jian Qing felt inexplicably relieved. She noticed a gaze on her, and turned her head to look.
The old man, despite wearing plain Tang Clothes, radiated a dominating aura accumulated over years. He emanated wisdom from his brows and eyes, but he looked somewhat familiar.
“Jian Qing.” The voice of Old Master An echoed, pulling her back from her wandering thoughts.
Jian Qing looked up at him, her gaze lingered on his white hair and beard, and she couldn’t help but think of her own grandfather, “How have you been recently? I heard from Aqiu that you were not feeling well.”
Hearing her concerned words, Old Master An almost shed tears of joy, and his mouth curled into a broad grin, “I’m fine, don’t listen to Aqiu’s exaggerations. As soon as I see you, I forget all my ailments.”
Jian Qing smiled lightly, and Aqiu standing nearby couldn’t help but laugh.
“So you are Jian Qing?” Old Master Quan interjected deliberately.
Jian Qing looked at him and nodded, “And you are?”
This man looked really familiar, had she met him somewhere?
“I am Yifei’s grandfather, she often mentions you in front of me.” Old Master Quan smiled.
All Jian Qing’s doubts were instantly dispelled, so it was Old Master Quan. No wonder he looked so familiar; there was a vague resemblance between him and Xiaojing.
It was hard to believe that this kind elderly man before her eyes was a person of great influence in China. He didn’t seem to be the same stern and majestic man she saw on television; instead, he looked more like an ordinary Grandpa.
“Since you’re good friends with Yifei, you can just call me Grandpa Quan.” Old Master Quan wanted to say ‘the girlfriend of my grandson Jingwu’, contemplating Elder An’s presence, he changed his words to avoid startling the elderly man.
Jian Qing was not reluctant, “Grandpa Quan.”
Hearing this, Grandpa Quan couldn’t close his mouth from laughing, which confused Old Master An.
He always felt that Grandpa Quan was acting a bit strange today. Even though he liked Jian Qing very much, there was no need to laugh so exaggeratedly like he just won a lottery jackpot.
“Jian Qing, make sure to visit us more often when you’re free and get familiar with our family.” Grandpa Quan called out nonchalantly.
Jian Qing responded with a tender smile and nodded.
Old Master An frowned, feeling something was off, but he couldn’t put his finger on it.
“Jian Qing, how well do you know Yifei?”
Before Jian Qing could open her mouth, Old Master Quan preempted her and said, “Not just Yifei, Jian Qing knows pretty well all of my grandsons.”
Jian Qing, “…”
