Chapter 2597 One thing overcomes another
Long Ting knew that Zhan Chi was thinking about his great-grandmother, so he comforted Zhan Chi: "Your great-grandmother lived longer than my master. She has gone to reunite with your great-grandfather."
"Only when we are all alive and well can the old man rest in peace."
"My great-grandmother was the best great-grandmother. It's impossible not to miss her."
Zhan Chi said, "Great-grandmother must have seen great-grandfather. My dad said that great-grandmother and great-grandfather had a very good relationship."
"When my great-grandfather passed away, my great-grandmother almost couldn't get over it. Don't be fooled by my great-grandmother's always strong appearance; she was actually very fragile inside. She missed my great-grandfather terribly."
Long Ting said, "I understand. It takes a long time to get over the loss of a loved one."
He was only one year old when his parents and family were murdered, and he couldn't remember them. Throughout his childhood, he didn't even know what his biological parents looked like.
It wasn't until he had enough power to return to H City that he saw photos of his parents in pictures taken by some people, and learned what they looked like.
He inherited the best features of both his parents. If he didn't wear a face mask, anyone who had seen his parents would recognize him as the only surviving direct descendant of the Long family.
"Fifth brother, let's not talk about these sad things. We need to look forward, live well, and live a wonderful life so that those who care about us can rest assured."
My master was very worried about him before he left.
The master tried his best to save his master's life. His master was a doctor, and the best doctor at that. He said that although he was called a miracle doctor all his life, he was not a god.
He is just an ordinary person, and he too must experience birth, aging, sickness, and death. There are some diseases that even he cannot completely cure.
The master said he would never marry and had no children. Fortunately, he found his master, who was both his disciple and his daughter. He was content to see his master marry and have children and to be with him until he was nineteen.
At least when he passed away, those surrounding him were his closest friends and relatives. He had a disciple who was more like a daughter than a biological daughter, and a smart, sensible, and filial grand-disciple.
It's good that people still remember him after he's gone, and that people will come to his grave to burn incense during the Qingming Festival.
His master instructed him that in the future, when seeking revenge, he must first protect himself. If he were to use his life to seek revenge, his master said, "Then let go of your hatred and live well."
His family, even in the afterlife, would surely want him to live a good life.
He then asked those uncles, aunts, and cousins to look after him more in the future.
Pulling Master Sisi back to his senses, Long Ting said, "Let's go see the lotus flowers; this is the season when they are in full bloom."
Zhan Chi smiled and said, "Brother Ting, my home doesn't have a lotus pond; only Youyou Manor has one. Do you think we're sitting in a pavilion in the manor right now?"
Long Ting: "...I forgot."
The two talked for a long time, while Chu Jiu sat quietly in the corner, like an invisible person, listening to their conversation.
Only in front of the Jun and Zhan families can her young master completely relax, without worrying about being schemed against or harmed, and can chat normally about everyday things.
"Brother Ting, Fifth Brother, you're here! I've been looking for you for a while, and I had to ask the housekeeper to find out you were here."
Beibei, who had just woken up from her afternoon nap, walked towards the backyard.
As Beibei stepped into the pavilion, Chu Jiu stood up and respectfully greeted her, "Miss Beibei."
"Ninth Sister?"
When Beibei saw the ninth day of the lunar month, she was just as surprised as Zhan Chi had been.
"Ninth Sister, when did you arrive? I was wondering why Brother Ting didn't bring you along. Turns out you were here. Why didn't you come inside with Brother Ting? I thought you hadn't come with us."
Beibei walked over, enthusiastically grabbed Chu Jiu, and insisted on pulling Chu Jiu to the table and making Chu Jiu sit down.
On the ninth day, he quickly got up.
But Beibei pressed her to sit down again, and she stood up again. Beibei pretended to be angry and said, "Ninth Sister, are you complaining that the seat I picked for you is not good? I asked you to sit, but you refused. Does that mean you're complaining that the seat I picked for you is not good?"
“No, Miss Bebe, I really didn’t mean that.”
Long Ting's favorite children are Jun Yan and Bei Bei. Chu Jiu knows this, and she also likes Bei Bei very much. However, she is just the young master's bodyguard and tries her best not to be on equal footing with her master.
"Since Ninth Sister doesn't mean that, she should just sit still."
“I will be very sad if Ninth Sister refuses to sit.”
Chu Jiu couldn't do anything with Bei Bei, so she looked to Long Ting for help, hoping that he could tell her to go to the corner and stand guard.
Little did she know that her pleading look would only earn her young master a scolding from Beibei.
Beibei scolded Long Ting and Zhan Chi: "You two grown men are sitting here drinking tea, eating fruit, and enjoying snacks, so comfortable and carefree, while I, Ninth Sister, am standing in the corner watching you eat?"
"Where is your gentlemanly manners? With so many chairs, couldn't you let my ninth sister sit down?"
Long Ting and Zhan Chi weren't angry even when their sister scolded them; instead, they kept coaxing Bei Bei not to be angry.
"Miss Beibei..."
"Ninth Sister, sit down and eat whatever you want. Don't mind them. These two are such roughnecks. No wonder they're still single and no girl likes them. They're so careless and inconsiderate. What girl would like them?"
"Sigh, I'm so worried. Brother Ting is already over thirty and still single. He doesn't know how to cherish women or be considerate of girls, that's why he can't get a wife."
Long Ting smiled apologetically, "Yes, yes, it's my fault. I'm such a rough guy, I didn't take care of your Ninth Sister. Bei Bei, don't be angry. Look, your Ninth Sister is already sitting down."
He and Zhan Chi quickly pushed all the food and drinks on the table in front of Chu Jiu.
"You've already eaten, and only the leftovers are for my Ninth Sister to eat. My Ninth Sister doesn't care for them."
Beibei grabbed Chu Jiu's arm and said to her, "Ninth Sister, let's go back inside. My dad is already preparing dinner. We can just wait and eat."
"We don't care about what those two roughnecks left behind."
Without giving Chu Jiu a chance to react or refuse, Bei Bei pulled Chu Jiu away.
Chu Jiu was being led away by Bei Bei, occasionally turning her head to look at the two men under the pavilion. She didn't dare to lay a hand on Bei Bei, not even daring to struggle too much, after all, these were the treasures of several major families.
She liked her the moment she saw her and loved her like a younger sister.
Long Ting couldn't do anything about Chu Jiu, but when Chu Jiu met the group's darling Bei Bei, she was helpless too.
One thing can overcome another.
Long Ting watched as Chu Jiu was taken away by Bei Bei and said to Zhan Chi, "To deal with Chu Jiu, we still need Bei Bei."
“I was still thinking about how to persuade Chu Jiu to come inside for dinner later, but now Bei Bei has solved it for me.”
Zhan Chi laughed, "Haha, Bei Bei has never missed a shot. Brother Ting, it's your fault too. Why did you tell us that Ninth Sister came with you?"
“She is my bodyguard, she is always with me, I thought you knew she would come along.”
"You two have broken up before, who knows?"
Zhan Chi said.
Then the two grown men looked at each other and said in unison, "We really are roughnecks."
