Unparalleled medical and martial arts skills, saving the CEO's fiancée at the start.

Jiang Ruoxi's expression changed drastically when she received the call, becoming extremely grim, as if something terrible had happened.

Ye Chen watched silently from the side, waiting for Jiang Ruoxi to make her own decision.

"Ye Chen, my second uncle just called and said that my grandfather is not well and wants me to go back and give up my position as president."

Jiang Ruoxi's anxiety was fully displayed, even more so than when the company encountered problems.

"Don't worry, let's go back and check the situation first. Maybe Grandpa is alright, or maybe it wasn't what he meant!" Ye Chen said, holding Jiang Ruoxi's hand.

"Ye Chen, I'm about to head home now. Just wait for me at home!"

Ye Chen was a little worried. The fact that she was in such a hurry to go home so late meant something must have happened: "Wife, of course I want to go with you. I'm afraid you'll be bullied..."

"No, that won't happen. No one at home would dare to do anything to me, so you can rest assured," Jiang Ruoxi replied confidently.

"Honey, I'd rather stay with you. I won't say anything; I'll just stay by your side."

"Alright then, just don't say anything out of line. My second uncle is not easy to deal with, and I'll cover for him if anything happens." Jiang Ruoxi thought for a moment and agreed to go home with Ye Chen.

The two tidied up quickly and went out. Jiang Ruoxi drove, and Ye Chen sat in the passenger seat.

Along the way, Jiang Ruoxi introduced Ye Chen to the basic situation of her family members, and talked most about her second uncle, Jiang Jianguo.

That is, Jiang Jianguo was absent from the last high-level meeting. He is the company's second oldest person and has always wanted to replace Jiang Ruoxi as the group president.

Jiang Jianguo repeatedly asked Jiang Ruoxi to step down and give way to a more capable woman, but Jiang Ruoxi refused each time.

All the family members, especially Jiang Ruoxi's grandfather, knew very well that Jiang Jianguo was not cut out to be a CEO.

He is a typical spoiled brat, a pampered young master who can squander his family fortune.

Jiang Ruoxi's grandfather was worried, so he made him a director who didn't have to do anything, but participated in the company's management decisions, hoping that he could change his bad habits and truly become Jiang Ruoxi's assistant, helping the family business to grow bigger and stronger.

Jiang Ruoxi's grandfather lives in the most luxurious villa area in Jiangcheng, only an hour away from Jiang Ruoxi's private villa.

As soon as the car entered the villa, Jiang Ruoxi felt the oppressive atmosphere; she knew tonight would be difficult.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, are you alright?" Jiang Ruoxi called out loudly as soon as she stepped through the door.

Grandpa didn't answer. Jiang Ruoxi's aunt, second uncle, and other elders were all in the living room. When they saw Jiang Ruoxi return, her aunt Jiang Xuejiao immediately got up to greet her.

"Ruoxi, why are you back so late?"

"Auntie, where's Grandpa? How is he?"

"Ruoxi, Grandpa is alright, don't worry!"

Her aunt's words did not dispel Jiang Ruoxi's worries, and she looked around for her grandfather.

"Jiang Ruoxi, your grandfather is fine, he's lying in his room! I asked you to come back about giving up the CEO position, and this time you have to agree whether you like it or not." Jiang Jianguo spoke, telling Jiang Ruoxi his true purpose.

"Second Uncle, if this is your intention, I'm sorry, but I can't give it up." Jiang Ruoxi's attitude was very clear: unless her grandfather gave the order, there was absolutely no hope.

After Jiang Ruoxi finished speaking, she turned around and ran towards her grandfather's room. Ye Chen followed behind her without saying a word.

"I really don't know what the old man is thinking. My elder brother and sister-in-law have been gone for so long, and he just passed the throne to his daughter. Does that mean I'm not his biological son? He's really senile." Jiang Jianguo grumbled in the living room, saying all this to Jiang Ruoxi.

Jiang Ruoxi didn't bother with her second uncle; finding her grandfather was the priority.

"Grandpa, are you alright?" Jiang Ruoxi threw herself into her grandfather's arms and burst into tears.

"Ruoxi, Grandpa is alright, don't worry, child! Don't cry!" Grandpa Jiang patted Jiang Ruoxi, comforting her.

"Ruoxi, who is this?" Old Master Jiang noticed Ye Chen standing in the room. "Ruoxi, is he your boyfriend?"

"Grandpa, this is Ye Chen. He works in the company's security department. He just happened to come back with me..."

"Grandpa, hello! Mr. Jiang is right." Ye Chen observed for a while and found that there was nothing wrong with the old man's body and the room.

The old man is in good spirits, but he was a little agitated and suffered a bit of a heart attack.

"Hmm, young man, please step out for a moment. I have something to discuss with Ruoxi privately." Old Master Jiang asked Ye Chen to leave.

After Ye Chen left the room, the old man finally spoke: "Ruoxi, although Grandpa is old, I'm not senile. You haven't told me the truth yet. Is there something you're hiding from me?"

"Grandpa, how did you know?"

"I know you never liked talking to men before, and you would never let a man come home with you in the middle of the night."

"Grandpa, he's the one you arranged for us to be betrothed back then. He's come to fulfill the marriage agreement..."

"Ruoxi, do you mean he came from Medicine King Valley?"

Jiang Ruoxi nodded: "Yes, Grandpa! Is it true?"

"Of course it's true. If Medicine King Valley hadn't intervened back then, I would have died long ago, and the Jiang Group wouldn't have achieved what it has today..."

Actually, on the day Ye Chen came to Jiangcheng to take out the marriage certificate, Jiang Ruoxi was thinking of going home to find out the situation from her grandfather. She was also worried that her family would use this matter to make trouble if they found out.

Jiang Ruoxi learned the truth from her grandfather's answer and his eyes.

Even if what Grandpa said is true, and he has been kind to the Jiang family, that cannot become a shackle binding her.

She hasn't reached that point with Ye Chen yet; she only agreed to let him stay by her side to deal with the current crisis.

"Ruoxi, this marriage contract must be honored. I just observed him, and he is a good person. He is capable, kind-hearted, and someone you can entrust your life to. Besides, if the marriage contract is not honored and the Jiang family unilaterally breaks off the engagement, the Jiang family will suffer the consequences." The old man reminded Jiang Ruoxi seriously once again.

"Grandpa, I understand. I've arranged a position for him at the company so he can get to know Jiangcheng better." Jiang Ruoxi didn't tell the old man about the series of assassinations and poisonings that had happened recently.

The main reason is that I'm worried my grandfather won't be able to handle it if he finds out.

"Ruoxi, go and call Ye Chen. I want to speak with him alone for a few minutes."

"Grandpa, do you have to tell me this behind my back?"

"Go quickly, listen to me!"

Jiang Ruoxi went reluctantly. After Ye Chen came in, she closed the door and waited outside.

"Grandpa, I am Ye Chen, from the Medicine King Valley of Wutong Mountain. Grandpa, this is the marriage certificate given to me by my master. Please take a look..."

Ye Chen took out the marriage certificate and handed it to Old Master Jiang.

"That's right, this is the marriage certificate I signed back then. Your master's prediction was spot on. He said that the Jiang family would face trouble twenty years later, and fulfilling the marriage contract would solve the problem..."

"Grandpa, did my master say this?"
