"Grandpa, you..."
Huo Xian patted the back of Shen Yan's hand and said, "Shen Yan, have a seat too, I have something to tell you guys."
Shen Yan nodded and sat down beside Yan Jinyi who subconsciously moved towards Shen Yan, letting their elbows touch.
"I'm getting old and I really can't get used to this bustling city. I plan to return to the island tomorrow."
'Oh yeah! The old man is finally going to leave! Does this mean he's going to give us an allowance now?'
Yan Jinyi stared at Huo Xian with glistening eyes.
"Grandpa, why don't you stay for a few more days? You might get used to it after some time," Shen Yan said sincerely.
"Forget it, that brat Huo Zihang and Qingyuan give me a headache when they bicker all day. You two are both my granddaughter-in-laws and yet, you don't get along well with your husbands."
Shen Yan couldn't help but blurt, "Chengyu and I..."
"Shen Yan, quit explaining, don't think I'm unaware that you and Chengyu are just married in name. Chengyu is overly obsessed with medical studies and he spends all his time and effort on research. I know he has mistreated you, don't try to explain for him."
Shen Yan bit her lower lip and said, "Grandpa, I didn't, Chengyu..."
Huo Xian waved his hand and said, "Enough, Jinyi, I'm the most worried about you and Xishen. You two have been married for more than a year, right? Have you seen each other at least five times?"
Yan Jinyi said righteously, "No."
Huo Xian humphed. "Chengyu will be turning 31 years old this year and Xishen will be turning 29 years old. Yet, I still don't have a great-grandchild.Are you guys out to upset me?"

Huo Xian looked extremely stern at this point.
Shen Yan immediately felt embarrassed. "Grandpa, I'll work harder."
"I've been home for so long but I've never seen you guys accompanying me to go out for tea or for a meal." Huo Xian turned to look at Yan Jinyi and said, "Xishen is worse, he actually went abroad."
Yan Jinyi touched her nose, looking proud and righteous as if it had nothing to do with her.
Staring at Yan Jinyi, Huo Xian said, "I bought that island at a price of more than a billion yuan. The air there is fresh and resources are abundant, it's a good place for recuperation."
'You spent more than a billion yuan on an island? Indeed, this old man is loaded.'
Yan Jinyi was envious.
She didn't need to buy an island. She just wanted a mountain but she couldn't even afford it.
Sensing the changes in Yan Jinyi's expression, Huo Xian coughed and said, "I plan to give that island to my first great-grandchild. I'll give that island to whichever one of you gives birth first."
"..."
Yan Jinyi was flabbergasted. She decided to stick to her plan to save up for her mountain.
Seeing the lack of response from Yan Jinyi and Shen Yan, Huo Xian frowned. "Why? Are you looking down on my island?"
"No, no, Grandpa, your island is like a sanctuary, I absolutely adore it. But we really can't rush to conceive..."
Shen Yan blushed and asked, "Grandpa, what time are you setting off tomorrow? Jinyi probably has to go to the set so why don't I send you to the airport?"
Yan Jinyi stared at Huo Xian intently.
'You're already leaving, where's the allowance? Hurry up and hand it over!'
In the end...
Even until dinner time and nighttime where Huo Zihang and Huo Qingyuan were getting ready to sleep, Huo Xian still didn't give them any money.
"Go to bed, the pocket money I'll be giving you this time is a little special. I've already discussed it with Xishen, you guys are free to take over any of the businesses under Huo Group."
