They were all business talents she had personally nurtured. By taking over the family enterprises, they had gained considerable experience. A minor issue like this, they could still resolve perfectly well.
Even if the sky collapsed, she believed they could hold it up.
“I will head out on the trip in the next day or two and be back by Saturday.”
“With your ability, if two days are not enough to solve it, delay the trip by a couple more days.”
Zhan Yue: “……All right.”
If he had not let Grandma answer that call for him, he would never have realised her information network was still so sharp. She knew every detail about the trouble at his subsidiary and even said he could not sort it in two days.
His opponent was certainly formidable. The head office had never faced a real rival, perhaps because it was based in Guancheng.
Everyone knew Guancheng was the Zhan family’s stronghold, backed by the vast Zhan Group. In Guancheng itself, he simply had no serious competitors.
The subsidiaries, however, faced plenty of strong rivals in their sectors. Those were other people’s territories. Doing business on someone else’s patch, naturally they did not want his branches to expand.
They seized every opportunity to take a bite.
“Grandma, is there anything at all that you do not know?”
Zhan Yue asked with a smile.
“Yes, there is. I do not know when Xiaoya will marry you.”
Zhan Yue: “……”
Grandma had truly closed off any further conversation.
The old lady yawned and said to Zhan Yue, “Old Eight, Grandma rose early today and feels rather tired. I will rest my eyes for ten or fifteen minutes. Wake me when we reach the Shang home.”
“Sleep, Grandma. I will call you when we arrive.”
The old lady soon drifted off.
Zhan Yue even envied her ability to fall asleep so easily. Sometimes he tossed and turned all night.
Ten or fifteen minutes later, they reached the Shang residence.
Zhan Yue sounded the horn. Soon Mrs Shang came to open the gate.
Seeing Zhan Yue and the old lady, Mrs Shang smiled. “I have only just returned from Tongtong’s, and here you are.”
The old lady woke at exactly the right moment, without needing Zhan Yue to rouse her.
Once the car had driven into the Shang villa and parked, she opened the door and got out unaided.
“Great-grandma.”
Mrs Shang had been playing with Beibei in the courtyard. Hearing the horn, she came to open the gate herself rather than wait for a servant.
Beibei was delighted to see the old lady. She broke into a run on her little legs, calling “Great-grandma” all the way.
Mrs Shang hurriedly shouted, “Beibei, do not run so fast. Be careful or you will fall.”
The old lady also quickened her steps towards her great-granddaughter.
It was a joyful rush towards each other from both sides.
“Great-grandma.”
“Yes, my dear.”
Beibei flung herself forward, and the old lady scooped her up.
