My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

Chapter 1967: Find a Backer

“In fact, the first time I saw you, I felt a sense of familiarity. It was a very subtle feeling. Now, you’re a good friend of mine. I thought you were a girl with a big background, so I didn’t say what I was thinking. But now that I know that your family background is ordinary, and less than ordinary in the way they treat you, Grandpa feels very sad seeing you suffer like this. I really want you to be Grandpa’s granddaughter. In the future, my Wu family will protect you and won’t allow you to be bullied again. Are you willing to accept this invitation?”

Elder Wu was not a talkative old man, but he spoke a lot in that one breath to Sze Lingyun.

Sze Lingyun’s eyes welled with tears, and her heart screamed, ‘Yes!’

However, she had been brought here by Nangong Nuannuan. She still needed Nangong Nuannuan’s permission to acknowledge Elder Wu as her godgrandfather.

Nangong Nuannuan was about to say that this was a good opportunity, but just as she was about to persuade her to agree, Chi Yang, who had not said much the entire dinner, suddenly spoke.

“I agree. This is good for you and Jingyan. He’s from a noble family, so if you have the backing of the Wu family, your chances of receiving their blessing will be much higher.”

Elder Wu was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“Elder Wu, Sze Lingyun is the fiancee of my brother Li Jingyan. He has already asked me about marriage.”

Elder Wu felt like the name Li Jingyan was very familiar. After thinking about it for a moment, his eyes suddenly widened.

“Li Jingyan? The son of the 12th official of the executive hall? Elder Xiao’s grandson?”

...

“Yes.” Chi Yang nodded.

Elder Wu’s words startled Nangong Nuannuan. She did not expect Li Jingyan to have such a powerful background. No wonder he had brought Sze Lingyun to the Shi family’s banquet.

Elder Wu looked at Sze Lingyun and chuckled. “Well, aren’t you climbing up the social ladder?”

When Sze Lingyun heard that, she hurriedly walked up to Elder Wu and said, “Grandpa Wu, I also like you very much! And I don’t just like you, but everyone else in the Wu family too. To be able to become your granddaughter, I’m already one of the luckiest girls in the world. I should thank Grandpa Wu for thinking highly of me and not disliking me! I-I am very willing to become a member of the Wu family. I-I’ll get along well with everyone in the family and will always be filial to you!”

When Elder Wu heard that, he laughed out loud.

This was the second time he had felt so much happiness after the Wu family’s rollercoaster if the last few days.

The first time was when Ping Ting’s insanity was cured. The second time was now.

“Good, good, good! My good granddaughter! Since I’m already your godgrandfather, don’t call me Elder Wu anymore. From now on, you can only call me Grandpa, okay?”

Sze Lingyun smiled and nodded. “Okay.”

“And from now on, I’ll call you Big Sis!” Wu Pingting happily walked over to Sze Lingyun and held her hand.

Wu Zongyang also said cheerfully, “From now on, I’ll have a little sister!”

Second Uncle and Aunt Wu also joined in the cheering. The atmosphere around the table grew a hundred times more lively than before.

Nangong Nuan happily congratulated Sze Lingyun for being able to become a part of the Wu family.

Kindness really did exist in the world. For example, she had already really liked Sze Lingyun at first glance. When she looked at her, she did not feel like she was looking at a coquettish slut or someone two-faced.

She liked girls like Sze Lingyun who were sincere, magnanimous, and had a little bit of mystery about them.

Everyone began to eat again, and the atmosphere suddenly improved even more.

Elder Wu ordered the housekeeper to go upstairs to get something. Soon the housekeeper brought the thing down.
