For some reason, Meng Jingwei suddenly felt guilty.
Was it really right to use He Xiaoming Jin like this?
He was so naive.
"Jin Jin, thank you."
She said gratefully, tears welling up, "After I become the Hidden Master, we'll get married. In this life, I only want to be with you and will not marry anyone else."
"Having your words... is enough." He Xiaoming Jin was very gratified.
He thought for a moment, then said, "At that time, we'll bring the child to our side and say it's my child. No one should have any objections. Then you'll be firmly seated as the Hidden Master, and Grandpa won't be able to do anything about you."
"Jin Jin, thank you, you're so good."
Meng Jingwei threw herself forward, hugged him tightly, filled with immense gratitude.
Afterward, the two sat together and chatted for a long time.
Not long after, Old Shen Tou came over, and the few of them chatted casually.
On the way home, Meng Jingwei passed a jewelry store. "Stop."
Old Shen Tou looked at her. "What is it?"
Meng Jingwei pointed to the jewelry store. "I suddenly remembered it's Jin Jin's birthday tomorrow, right? I'll pick out a birthday gift for him." Saying that, she spread her hands. "Card."
"I'll go with you," Old Shen Tou said with a smile.
Meng Jingwei rolled her eyes at him. "You can forget it. What taste do you have, and you're so picky. I'll choose it myself."
"Fine, then you go by yourself."
Old Shen Tou was very happy.
At least, he felt Meng Jingwei's care for He Xiaoming Jin.
After she married He Xiaoming Jin, he would be her grandfather, and their relationship would be even closer.
"The password is my birthday, old man." He handed the card to Meng Jingwei. "Can you understand their language?"
"Old Shen Tou, what are you thinking? You taught me the hidden language yourself, did you forget?" Meng Jingwei shook her head and pouted. "You're really getting old, your brain isn't working well anymore."
A hint of surprise flashed in Old Shen Tou's eyes, then he burst into laughter. "I was thinking about you being in Lancheng all these years and worried you wouldn't understand."
"I'm so smart, of course, I can understand."
Meng Jingwei raised her eyebrows proudly, a hint of vanity on her face. "Who do you think I'm a disciple of?"
She turned and headed towards the jewelry store.
While picking out jewelry, she borrowed a phone from the sales assistant and made a call to Qing Muye.
After the call was connected, "Qing Muye, listen to me. The child is in Qingshui Village, Qiya Mountain..."
"I know. I've already sent people to Qingshui Village, but there are hundreds of households in Qingshui Village, and I'm not sure where the child is."
"It's in a siheyuan by the river at the east end of the village."
"Okay, I'll inform them immediately."
"Remember to say you're people sent by Old Shen Tou. Hurry up, I'm hanging up."
With a brief exchange, Meng Jingwei immediately hung up the phone, deleted the number at lightning speed, and handed the phone back to the sales assistant.
Meanwhile, Old Shen Tou in the car, immersed in joy, suddenly his expression turned cold as he glanced towards the jewelry store.
"Something's wrong!"
The driver asked curiously, "What is it?"
"Why would she go to a jewelry store to buy a gift for Ming Jin?" Jewelry stores are usually for buying gifts for women.
Old Shen Tou felt suspicious, immediately opened the car door, and quickly entered the jewelry store.
He scanned the jewelry store and found Meng Jingwei still picking out items. He walked over and asked, feigning composure, "You came to a jewelry store to buy a gift for Ming Jin?"
"Of course, where else would I go if not a jewelry store?"
Meng Jingwei turned to look at Old Shen Tou, secretly cursing him as an old fox, cunning and sly.
Fortunately, she had already hung up the phone. Thirty seconds later, she would have been discovered by Old Shen Tou.
She picked up two rings on the table. "Old Shen Tou, do you think Jin Jin will like this ring?"
