Jiang Xu quickly realized the medicine's effects, a knowing glint in his eyes. He turned to Jiang Mian and asked, "Grandpa, could you get some?"

"What is it?" Jiang Mian looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Jiang Xu took a step closer to him and whispered a few words in his ear.

"......" It seems this grudge is even greater than he imagined.

Jiang Mian nodded: "Okay, I understand."

They stayed inside for a while, and when they returned to the ground, the wall behind them quickly returned to its original state, as if the door they had just seen was nothing more than their imagination.

Jiang Mian glanced at Jiang Xu and Fei and said, "Wait downstairs for a bit, I'll be right back."

After saying that, he turned around and went to the second floor. Jiang Xu followed his instructions and found a seat in the lobby on the first floor.

He noticed a pile of gift boxes in the corner, which looked like they had been carefully decorated by some kind of insect and delivered there.

Who delivered these?

The butler quickly stepped forward, glanced at the gift boxes piled up like trash in the corner, and said, "It belongs to a gentleman named Jiang Bian."

"......" Jiang Xu.

Well........

He knew why these things were thrown here.

"You guys take them and divide them up; it doesn't look right to pile them up here," Jiang Xu said to the butler after thinking for a moment.

"No, Mr. Zoran said these things must be returned," the butler refused without hesitation and explained.

"Since it's here, just accept it. No need to return it. Consider it a reward for your stay at the Jiang family. Grandfather will agree." Jiang Xu waved his hand and continued:

"Move it downstairs and divide it up, don't leave it here."

Based on his limited understanding of Jiang Bian, it would be difficult for him to take this back.

Since we can't return it and my grandfather can't accept it, we can only let it be.

The butler hesitated for two seconds, but seeing Jiang Xu's resolute attitude, he immediately called over two insects, which quickly cleared the gifts off the ground.

"Then, young master, shall I go down and distribute them to everyone?" the butler asked, bowing to him.

"Um."

The other insects followed the steward, their faces showing varying degrees of joy.

Fei noticed that all the insects had left the hall before moving a few steps toward Jiang Xu. He glanced toward the second floor but didn't see his two grandfathers coming down.

He then asked, "Aren't you afraid of what your great-grandfather might say?"

"No, my maternal grandfather is reasonable, and..." Jiang Xu pointed to the marks left after the gifts were moved away: "If they could be returned, they should have been returned long ago."

Judging from the situation, these things have been sitting here for two days.

According to his memory, these things were delivered after he left yesterday.

"Hmm." Fei thought it made some sense and nodded in agreement.

As soon as they finished speaking, they heard the sound of people coming downstairs behind them, and the two insects turned around at the same time.

Zoran took Jiang Mian's arm and they went downstairs.

"Good morning, Grandfather-in-law." A hint of amusement flashed in Jiang Xu's eyes as he greeted him in a flat tone.

"Good morning," Zoran replied without a hint of guilt.

Fei, who was left standing to the side, glanced at the daylight outside the house. It was almost noon. The female grandfather was indeed a man who had seen the world.

"Don't joke around." Zoran might not realize it, but Jiang Mian knew the kid was up to no good. He rolled his eyes at Jiang Xu: "Sit down. Why are you standing?"

As he spoke, he realized something was amiss behind the two insects.

Hmm? Where's that pile of stuff?

Before he could even feel a surge of joy, Zoran, who was standing next to him, also noticed the problem.

He frowned slightly. "What about the gift boxes?"

Jiang Xu raised an eyebrow, looked at the insect that was only a few steps away from him, and replied, "Have the steward take it to be divided up."

"They broke up?" Zoran frowned even more.

"Since we can't refuse, let's just consider it an employee benefit."

"........" Zoran

He clearly disapproved of this approach, but Jiang Mian spoke up first: "That's not bad either."

That did solve his problem.

Jiang Xu glanced at Zoran: "Grandfather, we don't need to respond to Jiang Bian's 'insects'. Since he's offering it, we'll accept it. If you don't want to accept it, then just let the steward and the others divide it up."

If you let him back out again, it will only cause more trouble.

Zoran glanced at Jiang Xu, thought for a moment, and, finding his words reasonable, didn't continue the topic. Instead, he turned to the two insects and said:

"I heard the matching department contacted you yesterday?"

He helped Jiang Mian to a sofa and sat down. Jiang Xu and Fei followed suit and sat down on the sofa opposite them.

After Jiang Xu sat down, he glanced at Jiang Mian and asked, "Did your grandfather tell you that?"

Zoran on the other side did not answer, but the answer would be one of the two possible outcomes.

He paused for only two seconds before continuing, "The message the matching department sent me yesterday."

"Have you met Shuya?"

"I've seen him." Jiang Xu was slightly puzzled, not understanding why Zoran would ask such a question.

"Shuya Darcy, their family intends to befriend the Jiang family and wants a marriage alliance." Zoran glanced at Fei, "Before you two get married."

If it weren't for Fei's sudden accident, perhaps the two families might have actually had a chance to get married.

As far as he knew, Shuya was a good female insect, and although Jiang Xu was his grandson, he still felt that she was more than a match for him.

However, he never expected that the little bug would settle down after getting married.

"?" Jiang Xu was somewhat surprised, his eyes darkening slightly. "Really?"

"However, I declined in the end. I just didn't expect that your compatibility score was so high, yet the matchmaking system still paired you two together."

"Yeah, it's okay. I already declined."

Jiang Xu answered matter-of-factly, and squeezed Fei's hand: "I think their family will probably not come to the Jiang family for cooperation again."

"That's alright, the Jiang family has no shortage of partners."

As Zoran spoke, his communicator vibrated twice, and a message quickly popped up.

He turned off the communicator and said to Jiang Xu and Fei, "I got what you wanted."

The Jiang family is efficient, Jiang Xu thought to himself for no reason.

Before he could respond to Zoran, Zoran spoke again: "You had that male insect tied up down there?"

"Hmm." Jiang Xu.

"A grudge?" He had checked the insect's information. It had been in the capital for less than half a year. How did they become enemies in those six months?

"Grandfather-in-law," Fei suddenly interrupted, pursing his lips and saying, "I have a grudge against him."

Zoran was somewhat surprised, but quickly realized that he should have looked further back.

He looked at Fei with affection: "How do you want to get revenge on him? Your grandfather will cover for you."

"......" Feed~ feed~ feed~, does the mood have to change so quickly? He'll start to wonder if he really was adopted, okay?

Jiang Xu thought to himself, "This is what I'm thinking."
