“Good afternoon, Grandfather.” Shen Zhilie also knelt down. “I am Xiao Shen. I apologize for not being able to pay you one final visit in person before you passed away, but please rest assured that I will be good to your granddaughter in the future. I won’t let Qianqian be treated unfairly in any way. I make this promise right here.”

After saying this, Shen Zhilie paid his respect to Grandfather with the incense and inserted them in their holder. He then knelt down on the ground and kowtowed three times.

Ye Zhenhua looked at Shen Zhilie with a deep gaze and said, “I hope you don’t speak in vain. Despite our Qianqian being a girl, she is a treasure in our family.”

“Don’t worry, Uncle. I will treat Qianqian well. I’m here to tell you that I’ve already told my family about this matter. My father said that he would propose in two days, but I want to get the marriage certificate with Qianqian first.”

Shen Zhilie had a very sincere attitude when he said this to him. His eyes stared into those of Ye Zhenhua. He was this close to calling him “father.”

But Ye Qianqian felt a little uneasy in her heart. In her heart, she still cared about those words that Shen Zhilie’s grandmother had said.

If... she really couldn’t live until she reached twenty-eight years old, what should she do? Also, according to what the old lady Shen said, she would experience difficulties getting pregnant...

Ye Qianqian was feeling a little down. Watching Shen Zhilie’s sincere gaze, she suddenly felt that it seemed very unfair to him.

“Lao Shen.” Ye Qianqian called out, interrupting Shen Zhilie’s speech.

Shen Zhilie looked toward her. Ye Zhenhua also looked back at his daughter.

“Let’s talk first,” Ye Qianqian looked at Shen Zhilie and blurted out.

Shen Zhilie had an ominous feeling in his heart. Looking at Ye Qianqian, he asked, “What do you want to say?”

“Follow me.” Ye Qianqian pulled Shen Zhilie away and walked out of the room.

Shen Zhilie was yanked away. Seeing Ye Qianqian’s solemn expression, he felt more and more uneasy in his heart that something wasn’t right.

He was led into another room by Ye Qianqian. Shen Zhilie stared at her and asked, “So what is it that you want to say to me?”

“I think...”

When Ye Qianqian was watching Shen Zhilie talk to her father, she felt that she had so much to say, but now she couldn’t even say a single word.

“Huh?” Shen Zhilie raised his eyebrows. “What’s the matter?”

“I was thinking that there must have been some sort of basis for what your grandmother said. After all, this kind of thing is indeed superstitious, but haven’t Chinese people been believing in this for at least five thousand years... Of course, it would be the best case scenario if it’s not true, but if it is true, I will probably die at the age of twenty-eight. Then...”

“Enough of this.” Shen Zhilie’s expression didn’t look pleasant at all. “Ye Qianqian, what do you think it is that I like about you?”

“What?” Ye Qianqian didn’t know how to respond for a second.

“Are you that timid that you actually believe what grandmother said?”

Ye Qianqian didn’t say a word, but her silent attitude meant that she did. Shen Zhilie became even more furious and said, “Even if you really do die, I will accept it because this was my own choice. However!” Shen Zhilie greatly emphasized this last word. “Grandmother’s words are untrustworthy. I have never believed what she says. She was into a lot of dubious fortune-telling. She foretold how fierce and powerful I would be in my life and how beautiful my wife would be. But now take a good look in the mirror. Are you really beautiful?”

Ye Qianqian’s eyes widened for a second. She didn’t know how to react for a moment.

“She talked about how smart my baby would be, but have a look at yourself. Do you think he or she will be smart with your genes?”

“Hey!” Ye Qianqian felt her blood boil. “What is that supposed to mean!?”
