Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 1079: How Confident Are You

A small courtyard somewhere in Beijing

The relaxed man lounged lazily against the bedding: “How’s the arrangements going?”

The woman was breathing lightly, one hand tracing circles on the man’s chest: “I’ve already found the right people.”

“What kind of people did you find, are they reliable?”

“Don’t worry, they wouldn’t dare pull any tricks.”

“When will they act?”

“Obviously, to give the Ye Family a big gift. After all, I grew up in the Ye Family, and Ye Wenhui’s wedding means I have to go back and congratulate him.”

“How confident are you?”

“I’ve made two plans, rest assured, whichever way you want it, it’ll go your way.”

“Good, I want to see how those people will choose.”

“Just to be safe, I won’t come see you these next few days. I’ll have someone deliver messages for me.”

“Got it.”

Seeing the man about to get out of bed, she quickly reached out to stop him: “Did you tell Uncle about me returning to Beijing?”

The man patiently coaxed her: “Of course I told him, but I probably can’t take you to meet the family just yet.”

“Why not?”

The man cleared his throat lightly: “My dad is seeing someone, and in a few days he’s preparing to hold a wedding. How could I bring it up at a time like this? You’ll have to be patient and wait a bit.”

Seeing the woman’s face change, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes: “I know what you’re thinking, but I don’t even have a stable job right now. I’m not going to challenge my dad’s authority.”

“How long will I have to wait then?”

“Don’t worry, after my dad’s wedding, I’ll talk to him.”

Watching the woman’s furrowed brow relax and checking the watch on her wrist: “It’s getting late, I should go. Once things are settled and we’ve benefited, I’ll buy this courtyard, and put it under your name.”

The woman was so moved by his words that she didn’t see the impatience in his eyes: “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely get things done.”

Yuan Family

Yuan Zining listened to the commotion next door: “Grandpa, I want to call Shigu.”

Yuan Yuxun looked at his grandson: “Your Shigu will be back tomorrow, no need to call her now.”

Yuan Zining glanced at the courtyard next door, his eyes flashed with envy, then he lowered his head, lost in thought.

Seeing him like this, Yuan Yuxun gently patted his little grandson’s shoulder: “Pack up, come with Grandpa out for a bit.”

Yuan Zining was a little reluctant: “You should go by yourself, Grandpa. I’ll stay and watch the house.”

After all, yesterday afternoon going out with Grandpa, he’d been pinched on the cheek so many times, he was scared now.

Yuan Yuxun found it funny: “Alright, nobody will do that again today.”

Then, his smile faded: “Zining, the Yuan Family’s future will be in your hands…”

He hadn’t finished before Yuan Zining said: “I’ll go.”

He didn’t even need to listen, he already knew what Grandpa was going to say next.

Shigu had warned him in advance, so he understood Grandpa’s good intentions: “Grandpa, I’ll go grab my coat.”

Watching his little grandson hurriedly run off, Yuan Yuxun knew full well he was putting the child in a tough spot. You can’t force a seedling to grow, but what can you do? He’s the hope of the Yuan Family.

He just wanted, as much as possible, to hand over resources to him early.

Yuan Yuxun had just arrived at the Fu Family gate with his grandson when he saw chaos inside—the Fu Family was in turmoil, someone shouted urgently: “Call a doctor, quick!”

Then a woman sobbing: “Chenyi, don’t frighten me!”

Yuan Yuxun’s heart dropped: “Something’s wrong.”

He let go of Yuan Zining’s hand and strode into the house.

Old Master Fu looked up and recognized him, anxiously cried out: “Yuan! Hurry, hurry, help Chenyi!”
