Grandfather, Uncle, Auntie, Elder Brother, Third Brother, why are all of you here? Lin Qian, having gone through a life-and-death experience, felt a surge of emotion upon seeing his family.
Your grandfather insisted on coming early this morning. He heard about your accident yesterday and hardly slept a wink all night. At his age, I was worried he wouldn't be able to handle it, so I had to force him to rest for a bit before bringing him here! The eldest of the Lin family, Lin Jingyang, clad in military uniform, looked imposing but his eyes were filled with concern for Lin Qian.
"My dear grandson, how do you feel?" The patriarch of the Lin family rushed to the bedside of his youngest grandson, whom he had raised himself. His eyes turned red with worry; when he received the news of Lin Qian's accident, countless dreadful images flashed through his mind. It was only at this moment that the weight on his heart began to lift.
"Grandfather, I'm fine. Thanks to Miss Yan, my life was saved!"
"Miss Yan!" The old man finally noticed the young girl in the room and felt a bit embarrassed for not acknowledging her sooner. He quickly stood up.
"Dad, this is Miss Yan! She is our lifesaver!"
The three generations who had just entered turned their attention to Yan Kongyue. The young girl was radiant and captivating, with big sparkling eyes that resembled the brightest stars in the sky. Her clear and bright gaze seemed to see through everything. Her full red lips resembled peach blossoms blooming in spring, slightly curved upwards with a hint of a smile. Her long black hair cascaded down like a flowing river, adding an air of mystery to her beauty.
The members of the Lin family, including high-ranking military officials and government dignitaries, found it hard to gauge what kind of person this young girl truly was.
"Miss Yan, this is my father, Lin Huai'an!" Lin Jingteng quickly interjected as he noticed everyone staring at the girl.
"Hello!" From the moment the old man entered the room, Yan Kongyue felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with him—something she had never experienced before.
"Oh dear, that's not appropriate! You are our benefactor; how can I have you greet me?" The old man bent slightly as if to bow to Yan Kongyue.
"Grandfather, please don't say that! I can't accept such courtesy!" Yan Kongyue quickly supported Lin Old Man.
Lin Old Man instantly took a liking to this beautiful girl—she was clever and understanding, not arrogant despite her kindness. If she could become part of the Lin family, it would be a tremendous blessing.
"Miss Yan, if you don't mind, from now on the Lin family will be your home and we will be your family." Lin Jingteng did not mention the specifics of the accident to Lin Old Man; he was unaware that Lin Qian had already experienced death once. Similarly, he did not know about Yan Kongyue's abilities; his words were purely based on his fondness for her.
Lin Zhuo felt embarrassed; how could his shrewd grandfather be so impatient? Hadn't he always taught them to seek stability before victory?
Lin Old Man didn't care what they thought; he wanted to act first. The more he looked at this girl, the more he liked her—she was simply perfect in his eyes. Even if his grandsons couldn't match her status, he would still keep her as a granddaughter.
"Great! Since I'm new here and unfamiliar with everything, I would love for Grandfather to consider me family!" For Yan Kongyue, apart from her father, this was the most comfortable family she had ever encountered.
Well then! The two of them reached an understanding with just those few words.
"Come here; let me introduce you!" At this point, Lin Old Man completely forgot about his beloved grandson.
Lin Qian thought to himself that this old man truly had keen insight.
"Alright!" Yan Kongyue had almost forgotten what familial affection felt like. The warmth from Lin Old Man made her feel close and unable to refuse; she genuinely enjoyed this sudden sense of belonging.
"This is my eldest son Lin Jingyang; you can call him Uncle along with Lin Qian! And that is Auntie."
"Uncle! Auntie! Hello!"
Lin Jingyang quickly turned to look at his security guard, who handed him a card.
