Chapter 1845: How Could Happiness Be Defined Like This?
Zhang Manhua merely looked at Pei Ge and saw Old master Qu’s eyes turn gentler. She simply said, “Old master Qu, happy birthday.”
“Yes, happy, happy. I am even happier since you guys are here at my birthday party.”
Old master Qu smiled kindly as though all his wishes were fulfilled.
“Old master Qu, you really know how to joke. Your banquet is filled with the rich and famous in the capital. Why would you need us old women to support your party?”
“That’s right. Old master Qu has many famous models and beauties, but there’s still one missing beauty.”
Qu Xiujie stood on the other side of Zhang Manhua with a devilish smile.
“Oh? Which beauty am I missing?”
Old master Qu asked Qu Xiujie in confusion.
“Old master Qu, I have to say that young master Qu is really amazing. He only went out for a holiday and he already found a pretty lady who can handle the situation for you. This is the most amazing thing about young master Qu. That pretty lady is much better than the pretty models you hired.”
At the mention of Mao Nana, Mother Ji was not stingy with her praise.
“Xiujie, did you find me a daughter-in-law?”
The few of them started chatting at the door and looked at Old master Qu with smiles in their eyes.
This birthday party seemed to be a casual family gathering.
“That’s right. Your daughter-in-law isn’t much younger than Miss Qu Jingwan.”
Mother Ji looked at Qu Xiujie and then at Old master Qu. Seeing that the two were not prepared to fight, she continued speaking.
“Which family’s young mistress is it?”
Old master Qu’s face turned cold. He knew Qu Xiujie’s capabilities better than anyone else but because of this, he also knew the significance of Zhang Manhua’s appearance in Qu Xiujie’s heart.
“She’s not from any family. She’s not even a commoner girl.”
Qu Xiujie’s reply did not lose to Old master Qu.
“Oh, then bring her back for us to see. Let’s have a good meal together.”
Old master Qu realized that when he looked at Qu Xiujie, he felt that there was a change in this lad but he did not know where this change came from. Perhaps, it was because of Zhang Manhua who was standing beside him.
“Since you’re here, come in quickly. It’s not good to keep standing at the door. It’s quite cold.”
Old master Qu called for everyone to come in. When he saw that there were no other guests, he walked to Mother Ji and asked softly, “Is Old master Ji not here?”
“Old Master Ji is here to pick someone up. Come over later.”
“Pick someone up? Who wants Old Master Ji to personally pick up a guest?”
Old master Qu could not believe it. What kind of person could order Old master Ji to pick someone up at the airport? It seemed like this person was not ordinary.
Old lady Qu stood on the spot and awkwardly watched Old master Qu take Pei Ge and the rest from the door. Her face turned even colder as she thought about what to do.
The plan for the new tea did not seem to be successful. According to the time, the medicine should have started to take effect at this time but Old master Qu did not show any signs of it. Old lady Qu was suspecting if the medicine had expired or if she had taken the wrong medicine.
The oil stains on the stairs were still there. No one stepped on them.
“Jingwan, come here.”
Old lady Qu suddenly recalled that when Old master Qu was drinking tea, it was Qu Jingwan who was standing in the room to look after him. It had only been a while, so did that mean that it was useless?
“Grandma, what’s wrong?”
Qu Jingwan walked up and asked Old lady Qu.
“Let me ask you, did you see Old Master drink tea in the room?”
Old lady Qu asked softly.
“Yes, Grandpa said his praises as he drank. He almost drank the tea leaves in the cup.”
Qu Jingwan was shocked. Indeed.
“Then how...”
Old lady Qu was confused as to what went wrong.
“Grandma, what’s wrong?”
Qu Jingwan pretended not to know. If Old lady Qu knew that she was the one who poured the new tea into the potted plant, she would be the one in trouble.
“It’s nothing. Since the old master likes it, I’ll prepare another cup for him.”
“Sure, Grandpa really likes it. Grandma, prepare another cup for Grandpa.”
Qu Jingwan suggested and Old lady Qu thought for a while. Seeing Old master Qu chat happily with Pei Ge, Zhang Manhua, and Mother Ji, she could not help but nod in agreement.
“Jingwan, stay here and watch. I’ll prepare another cup for your grandpa.”
Old lady Qu had made all the preparations today. If one plan did not work, she would come up with a second one.
“Alright, go ahead, grandma. I’m here.”
Qu Jingwan nodded and watched Old lady Qu leave the banquet hall. She then went to the kitchen and poured a new cup of tea for Old master Qu.
Seeing Old master Qu standing among the women, Qu Jingwan could not help but look at Ji Ziming and realized that his eyes were on Pei Ge. No matter where she went, she would be able to see him.
Qu Qingyu, who was not far away from Qu Jingwan, stood among the models. He knew how to flirt with girls, and when he was not paying attention, he took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of a big-breasted girl.
The women’s coquettish laughter and the men’s laughter stopped in Qu Jingwan’s ears for the first time.
“It seems like Madam Zhang has been living well abroad for the past few years.”
Old master Qu’s eyes shone when he looked at Zhang Manhua. This girl, who liked to stick by his side and sweetly call him ‘father’, had grown so much in the past few decades. It turned out that many things had changed when he was unaware.
Having it once did not mean that one would always have it. Cherishing it once did not mean that one would always cherish it in the future.
“Manhua has never cared about such things overseas. She has found someone who loves and dotes on her. Now, she has become the happiest woman among us sisters.”
“How can happiness be defined like this?”
Qu Xiujie said nonchalantly. He had heard a lot about Zhang Manhua’s situation in America and roughly understood it. He initially thought that he would be the last person to know about it, but it seemed like he did not know about it too late. Instead, it was Old master Qu who knew the most.
