Chapter 719 God-given Fate
“What about me?” Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan in confusion.
“Your grandfather is also my grandfather. If you don’t let me know, are you not treating me as a family?”
“Of course not. Why would you think that way? I just don’t want you to worry,” Jun Shiling hurriedly explained. It was fine for me to bear the burden alone.
“But whether it’s good or bad, I want to bear it with you. You didn’t tell me and still think it’s for my own good.”
“I was wrong.” Just as Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, Jun Shiling pulled her into his arms. “I’ll hug you and you can rest for a while. I’ll call you when the surgery is over.”
“No.” Xia Wanyuan shook her head. “I’ll accompany you. Tell me about you and Grandfather.”
“Okay.” Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan interlocked their fingers and told her about his childhood in detail.
Lin Jing looked over from afar. In the long hospital corridor, Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan were leaning against each other. It was as if time had lost its meaning in front of them.
Lin Jing was a little envious. How fortunate it was to have such a partner in one’s lifetime.
Although Xia Wanyuan wanted to accompany him, her biological clock was very powerful. In the end, Xia Wanyuan was listening to Jun Shiling with half-closed eyes.
After some time, the door of the operating theater finally opened.
“CEO Jun, the surgery went smoothly, but Old Master fell quite badly. He needs to be hospitalized for observation.” The specialist walked out and reported the situation to Jun Shiling.
“Alright, thank you.” Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan followed the doctors into the ward.
The old man had just finished his surgery and looked much better. He was sleeping peacefully.
In the ward specially prepared for Old Master Jun, there was an accompanying bed. Jun Shiling placed Xia Wanyuan on the accompanying bed. “Go to sleep. I’ll look after Grandfather.”
Xia Wanyuan nodded in a daze. “Wake me up in three hours. I’ll help you take a look.”
“Okay.” Jun Shiling tucked Xia Wanyuan in. When he looked at her again, she was already sound asleep. Jun Shiling went over to take a look at Old Master’s condition before returning to Xia Wanyuan’s bedside. He held her hand under the blanket.
Although he had promised Xia Wanyuan to call her three hours later, Jun Shiling had never thought of calling her up to replace him.
However, three hours later, Xia Wanyuan opened her eyes.
It was still pitch black outside the window. Xia Wanyuan moved a little. Jun Shiling, who was watching the computer, immediately turned around. “Why are you awake?”
“Take a nap.” Xia Wanyuan sat up. “Don’t you have a meeting today? How can you not take a break?”
“I don’t have to. You can sleep on your own.”
However, Xia Wanyuan did not care. She half dragged Jun Shiling onto the bed. “Sleep, or I’ll ignore you. I’ll call you later.”
Jun Shiling had no choice. “Okay.” Then, he closed his eyes.
As they were talking, they did not notice that
On the hospital bed not far away, the old man opened his eyes. However, he quickly closed them and smiled.
Listening to the couple’s soft whispers, the old master thought that when he recovered, he would definitely renovate the Taoist temple outside the city.
Back then, if not for Priest Zhang’s firm guarantee that Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling were a match made in heaven, he would not have made up his mind to force Jun Shiling to marry Xia Wanyuan.
From the looks of it now, Jun Shiling marrying Xia Wanyuan was not just a heaven-sent opportunity. It was likely that the Jun family had done good deeds for many years to have such a good wife.
When the Old Master woke up again, Jun Shiling was sitting beside him. “Why don’t you have to go to work?” After a night of rest, the old master felt much better.
“It has been changed to a video conference. How do you feel, Grandpa?” Jun Shiling put the laptop aside.
“Much better. Where’s Wanyuan?” The old master took a look but did not see her.
“She went downstairs. She’ll be up in a minute.”
“Yes, Ah Ling. Although Grandpa knows it’s a little redundant, I still want to say something. Wanyuan is such a good girl. You must treat her well since you have the good fortune from your past life.”
Speaking of Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling smiled gently. “Grandpa, I know.”

Downstairs, Xia Wanyuan asked the doctor about Old Master’s condition. She was about to go upstairs when she was stopped by someone.
“Xia Wanyuan?” A well-maintained lady frowned at her.
Xia Wanyuan glanced at her. “What’s the matter?”
The wealthy lady did not answer. She raised her hand and was about to hit Xia Wanyuan. “Little slut, how dare you harm my daughter.”
Xia Wanyuan’s gaze turned cold as she grabbed the lady’s wrist.
“Let go!” The wealthy lady felt as if her hand was about to break from Xia Wanyuan’s grip. She hurriedly shouted inside, “Hubby!!”
Soon, a man in a suit and leather shoes walked out, accompanied by a familiar face.
“Let go of my wife!” Shi Jian reprimanded loudly.
“Hubby, this little b * tch hurt our Guo Guo so badly.” Seeing Shi Jian come over, the wealthy lady was emboldened.
“Guo Guo, is that her?” Shi Jian quickly turned around and asked Chen Xiaoguo.
“Yes, Dad, it hurts.” Chen Xiaoguo nodded her head, feeling wronged. Since there was no one from the crew around, Chen Xiaoguo did not intend to continue pretending.
Seeing that his daughter was about to sit on the wheelchair as her feet were scalded, Shi Jian’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness. “Someone, bring this woman back.”
As soon as Shi Jian finished speaking, several bodyguards rushed out from the side.
