Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law

Chapter 1567: Chapter 1567: Unaware of His Wife’s Beauty!

"She..." Facing Nangong Qingcheng’s pure and trusting gaze, Jiang Feng felt increasingly stifled and uncomfortable inside, with a strong sense of guilt.

If Nangong Qingcheng were to find out that I brought Baili Xiyue for a pregnancy test... she would be devastated!

"It’s nothing, her family has some issues, and she asked me for advice to help solve them," Jiang Feng, feeling helpless, could only brush it off.

"Her family issues, and she asks you for help?" Nangong Qingcheng glanced at Baili Xiyue on the sofa again, astonished.

"Cough, cough, is there anything else?" Jiang Feng quickly tried to regain her attention and asked.

"Well..." Nangong Qingcheng thought for a while and said, "It’s like this, Grandpa called me a few days ago saying he misses us and asked when we could visit him, but since you weren’t around, I couldn’t go back by myself."

Jiang Feng suddenly understood.

Although he didn’t want to admit it, he knew deep down that he had indeed neglected and become distant from Nangong Qingcheng’s family.

He even visited the Baili Family’s Mountain Manor more frequently than Nangong Honghu’s residence.

One misstep led to another, creating the current situation.

"How about we go this afternoon? Do you have class?" Jiang Feng asked.

"Why wait until the afternoon, let’s go now while they’re still asleep, to avoid any questioning," Nangong Qingcheng suggested.

"Alright."

Immediately, Jiang Feng shook off his sleepiness and left with Nangong Qingcheng.

Nangong Qingcheng went upstairs to change into a simple outfit, a white elegant dress and minimalist sandals, still so charming and incredibly beautiful.

Jiang Feng had heard before that some people don’t appreciate their beautiful wives at home, preferring to philander outside, thinking at the time that those people must be crazy.

But now, with this happening to him, he truly understood the feeling of being powerless.

The two of them drove Nangong Qingcheng’s car to the Nangong Mansion, where Nangong Honghu was currently asleep.

Since the family incident resulted in the demise of the second son Nangong Jinming’s family, the entire mansion had become rather desolate.

Given that the issues were somewhat caused by Nangong Qingcheng’s family, it created discord within the family, straining relations with relatives.

This left Nangong Honghu in a difficult position, unable to prefer one side over the other.

He also understood that with him still around, the family wouldn’t fall apart yet, but once he passed away, the Nangong Family’s lineage would come to an end.

For now, the entire mansion was quiet and deserted, rarely visited, with only one nanny hired by Nangong Honghu to care for his everyday needs.

When she saw Nangong Qingcheng and Jiang Feng arrive, the nanny quickly went to wake Nangong Honghu.

Nangong Honghu didn’t expect his beloved granddaughter and grandson-in-law to visit suddenly, and he happily greeted them with his cane.

If there’s anything Nangong Honghu regretted about life, it would be not having seen his cherished granddaughter and grandson-in-law’s grand wedding, or had a healthy grandchild.

"Grandpa!"

Seeing Nangong Honghu stagger out, Nangong Qingcheng suddenly felt a tightness in her heart and ran over.

They hadn’t seen each other for a while, and Nangong Honghu seemed to have aged considerably.

His hair was almost entirely white, his frame shrunken, and without his cane, he couldn’t walk steadily.

Nangong Qingcheng was on the verge of tears, remembering how kind her grandfather had always been to her, favoring her since she was little, yet now she continually neglected him...

She suddenly felt terribly unfilial, thinking even if Jiang Feng didn’t have time, she could still visit frequently...

"Silly girl, why are you crying? Grandpa is fine! You’re grown up now, crying at grandpa’s age..."

Nangong Honghu affectionately ruffled Nangong Qingcheng’s hair, laughing.

Nangong Qingcheng was already sobbing uncontrollably, and Jiang Feng, feeling touched, stepped forward and called, "Old Man."

"Hmm, rascal, haven’t visited for so long—did you forget this old man?" Nangong Honghu jokingly reproached, but there was no blame in his eyes, only the same affection he had for Nangong Qingcheng.

"Take a seat, I’ll have the nanny wash some fruit for you." He invited them to sit.

"Grandpa, there’s no need to trouble yourself, we’re just here to spend some time, talking since you said you missed us, right?" Nangong Qingcheng said, holding back her tears.

"Don’t you miss Grandpa?" Nangong Honghu teased with a smile.

"Of course we do!" Nangong Qingcheng stomped her foot, feeling guilty, and said, "I’ve been really busy lately, wanted to come but couldn’t..."

"Hehe, Grandpa knows, I’ve heard your company expanded and you’ve involved many friends to grow together, it’s a good thing, and Grandpa just likes to chat over the phone, but truly understands you. Besides, I’m not too old to move just yet, so come back whenever you wish," Nangong Honghu smiled, wiping Nangong Qingcheng’s tears away.

"Old Man, I’ve neglected it too, don’t blame me. But I see you’re in decent physical shape, just your spirit slightly waned, probably from staying home too long. You should find time to go out for walks..." Jiang Feng sincerely cared for the Old Man.

"Haha, when you get old, sometimes you just prefer not to move, rather stay in bed than get up. But since you’ve mentioned it Xiao Feng, I’ve taken it to heart, and will exercise more, sparing you two from worrying about me," Nangong Honghu laughed heartily.

He hadn’t laughed like this in a while, truly happy to see Jiang Feng and Nangong Qingcheng.

"Xiao Feng, I’ve heard you’re busy too, sometimes even away from Binhai. Make sure to take care of yourself. My granddaughter is counting on marrying you, don’t let her down," Nangong Honghu advised Jiang Feng earnestly.

"Yes, I will!" Jiang Feng nodded firmly.

"Also, Qingcheng, learn to be more understanding of Xiao Feng."

Nangong Honghu continued with a smile, "Xiao Feng is out there, definitely doing important work, even if some things can’t be shared with you, be understanding, every man has some unspoken matters. Don’t randomly doubt him, just support and believe in him unconditionally, okay?"

He vaguely knew about Jiang Feng’s background and origins, prepared long ago with the knowledge that Jiang Feng was no ordinary person and would eventually return to the Capital City!

The least he could do for Jiang Feng was to address any worries and earnestly guide his granddaughter, preparing Nangong Qingcheng to be Jiang Feng’s most solid support and harbor.
