Capitulo 1038: Chapter 1026: Qiao Jing Moves Back Into the Zhan Family Residence
Very soon, Qiao Jing and Zhou Fu arrived at Purple Garden.
Except for Zhan Qipei, who had gone to the company, everyone else from the Zhan Family was present.
Zhan Nanjing led Qiao Jing and Zhou Fu to the room where Zhan Yuanshan was.
Seeing Zhou Fu arrive, Su Manhan quickly said, “Master Zhou, you're here, quickly, check on the old man, let's
hope his condition hasn't worsened.”
Zhou Fu nodded, placed his medical kit aside, and then walked forward intending to check Zhan Yuanshan’s
pulse.
However, just as he reached out his hand, Zhan Yuanshan pushed him away.
After pushing Zhou Fu aside, Zhan Yuanshan said seriously, “My illness, well, only my granddaughter-in-law can
treat it. She is the only one who can do it well. You've been treatingfor years, and what effect has it had?”
Zhou Fu’s expression froze, leaving him momentarily speechless.
Though every word the old man said hit home, they were also all true.
Su Manhan and Zhan Yao both felt a bit embarrassed by this.
After all, someone had cpurposely to offer treatment, only to be met with such disdain by the old man, truly
frustrating!
Su Manhan quickly spoke up to ease the situation, “Master Zhou, please don’t take it to heart, the old man’s
temper is like this, don't let his words get to you.”
“Don’t worry, | won’t mind at all. The old man is just straightforward and speaks his truth directly.”
Zhou Fu waved it off, saying calmly, “Besides, what the old man said is true. Although I'm my teacher's disciple, |
am indeed quite far from my teacher's level.”
Then he glanced at Qiao Jing beside him and added, “Not to mention, compared to my teacher, in saspects,
| might not even equal my teacher's younger sister.”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Yuanshan immediately rolled his eyes, “What younger sister! You all say I'm old with bad
eyesight. Lettell you, none of you are as sharp as my Fiery Eyes!”
He had said it countless times, this Xiao Jing was his granddaughter-in-law, yet no one believed him. Truly, they
couldn't see the wood for the trees!
Zhan Yuanshan couldn't be bothered to repeat himself and directly waved Qiao Jing over, “Jing Girl, come, you
take a look.”
Qiao Jing stepped closer, looking at the old man and skeptically asked, “Grandpa Zhan, are you faking sickness
again?”

As soon as she cin, she observed the old man’s complexion.
Compared to the last tthey met, the old man seemed a bit more aged, but he didn’t seem to be in poor
condition.
Hearing her question, Zhan Yuanshan immediately clutched his chest and coughed a few times, “Cough cough
cough... Do | look like I'm faking it?”
Qiao Jing said nothing, only gave the old man a look, letting him ponder it himself.
Of course, to confirm, she still checked the old man’s pulse.
The results of the diagnosis aligned with her initial judgment—the old man’s condition was relatively stable.
Qiao Jing slightly raised her eyebrows and withdrew her hand.
Just as she was about to expose the old man’s lie, he suddenly grabbed her, speaking with a serious demeanor,
“Actually, I'm fine during the day, nothing major, but sometimes at night I feel really uncomfortable.”
“You know, the elderly can suddenly pass away in the middle of the night quite easily. Plus, I've been having
insomnia and many dreams lately, which significantly increases the chances of an incident!”
“So, why don’t you stay here for a while, in the room next to mine, just in case | have an attack or something,
you can rescuein time!”
After hearing the old man’s words, Qiao Jing’s mouth twitched slightly.
Other issues could be overlooked, but staying at the Zhan Family’s was completely outside her plans.
She tugged at her lip, speaking unhurriedly, “Grandpa Zhan, don’t think it's that serious. As long as you take
your medicine on time, rest well, and keep a good mood, the situation you're worried about probably won't
happen right now.”
Though she didn’t explicitly say it, it was obviously a rejection.
Seeing this, Zhan Yuanshan had no choice but to resort to playing the sympathy card.
He struck his chest with his right hand, tically saying, “Alas... This old man is so pitiful. After a life of
battling on the fields, charging ahead for the country and people, escaping death so many times, yet in old age,
I'm left like this. If something happens toin the middle of the night, | won't know who to call to save my old
I ifiehg
Qiao Jing knew the old man was putting on a show, so after waiting for him to finish, she spoke up, “Alright, I'll
prescribe you smedicine for your insomnia so you can sleep peacefully at night; once you sleep well, you
won't overthink things.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhan Yuanshan immediately waved it off, “It’s no use, it’s pointless. The
doctors have givenmedicine before, nothing works, not useful at all!”
This time, Qiao Jing was genuinely at a loss for words.
She said nothing, just silently watched the stubborn old man.
Zhan Yuanshan saw that she still showed no signs of agreeing, and with the situation at a standstill, he resorted
to his ultimate weapon.
He maneuvered his wheelchair straight towards the window, threatening, “If you still won't agree, I'll jump from
here right now!”
Su Manhan and Zhan Yao saw this and hurriedly rushed to hold him back.
Zhan Yao, looking distressed, said,

Su Manhan quickly chimed in to persuade, “Indeed, this isn’t something to joke about. Let's talk properly, no
need to always threaten to jump out of windows!”
This scene couldn't help but make Zhan Nanjing recall the past.
Back then, to force her brother and sister-in-law to get married, her grandpa used this very trick!
Qiao Jing could clearly see that the old man was just acting, like a lively character.
However, remembering his earlier
words, she recalled seeing lots oh

Every scar was a medal exchanged for with flesh and blood.
This made her truly respect him!
Although the old man was a bit willful, elderly people can sometimes be like this, similar to mischievous kids.
Considering these, Qiao Jing finally relented, “Alright then, I'll stay for a few days first.”
Seeing her finally agree, a smile

Watching the old man change his tune so quickly, as if it wasn’t him threatening to jump just now, Qiao Jing
couldn't help but find it amusing.
Thus, her temporary stay at the Zhan Family was decided just like that.
This news quickly reached Jin Yufei’s ears.
Jin Yufei had been secretly keeping an eye on the Zhan Family's movements, so she immediately caught wind of
even the slightest disturbance.
Upon learning of this, Jin Yufei couldn't sit still, immediately rushing to the Zhan Family to find Zhan Nanjing.
