Chapter 1580: Chapter 1580: Great-Grandchild?!

As soon as she finished posting on Weibo, Jiang Jingheng came down from upstairs.

"How’s grandpa?" Mu Yan asked.

"He’s doing well," Jiang Jingheng replied indifferently.

"Shouldn’t I go up and see him?" Mu Yan asked softly.

As a granddaughter-in-law, she shouldn’t come without seeing the elder.

"No need, he’s asleep," Jiang Jingheng said calmly, "Besides, he’s not in good health, and you’re pregnant; don’t risk getting infected by him."

The butler’s eyelid twitched. He looked at Mu Yan, his gaze instantly falling to her belly, as if contemplating something.

Mu Yan wanted to say that the old man wasn’t suffering from an infectious disease, so what was there to be afraid of?

But since he said that, he must have his reasons. Moreover, she very much liked the way he was so considerate of the child.

"Let’s go." Jiang Jingheng took her hand and led her outside.

The butler escorted them to the door, then turned back upstairs.

In the room, the old man was coughing sullenly, not looking in good spirits.

Seeing this, the butler said, "Old Sir, should we call a doctor to check on you?"

"No need, I’m old, and my body has its issues, it’ll recover slowly, won’t die," the old man leaned on the headboard, his tone low, as if he had resigned to his fate and old age.

"Don’t joke about dying, you’re meant to live to a hundred."

"I don’t expect to live to a hundred, I’m just worried that the Jiang Family might end with Jingheng’s generation," the old man said solemnly, "The kid is good at everything, just has too unruly a temperament."

The butler chuckled, "Old Sir, everyone has their youth, and young people will mature over time. Your worry is unnecessary, I just heard Third Young Master say that Third Young Madam is pregnant, you’re going to be a great-grandfather."

Old Sir Jiang was startled, looking at the butler with some disbelief, "Are you serious?"

"Third Young Master’s own words can’t be false, and they’ve been married for over two years now, it’s time for a child. With a child, Third Young Master will naturally understand the good intentions of his elders."

Old Sir Jiang perked up instantly, saying, "Quick, quickly send a few servants from the old house to Jingheng’s place, make sure they take good care of my granddaughter-in-law and great-grandchild."

Having said that, he added a bit angrily, "That brat, such a big matter and he didn’t tell us a word, really growing wings, go, call that brat."

Outside the villa, Jiang Jingheng got into the car, fastened his seatbelt, and was about to drive away, when he received a call from the old man.

The old man’s furious voice came through, "Brat, why didn’t you tell me about the granddaughter-in-law being pregnant with our Jiang Family’s heir? Your wife is pregnant, yet you’re running around, is this how a husband and father should behave?"

Jiang Jingheng frowned slightly, "Why should I tell you?"

"I am your grandfather!"

"Really? If nothing else, I’ll hang up."

"You better take good care of..."

Before the old man could finish, Jiang Jingheng hung up the phone.

Suddenly, he heard a chuckle from beside him.

Jiang Jingheng turned his head to look at her and asked, "What’s so funny?"

Mu Yan held back her laughter and said, "I always thought grandpa was very serious and unapproachable. Now it seems he’s like any regular grandpa, kind of adorable."

"Is that so?" Jiang Jingheng’s expression remained indifferent.

Mu Yan knew his relationship with the old man was not good. Maybe he once sought his grandfather’s affection, but things didn’t go as hoped, and eventually, he didn’t force it anymore. Now their relationship was less like grandfather and grandson, more like superior and subordinate.

She hesitated for a moment and said, "Jingheng, I think grandpa may not be as bad as you think."
