ENCHANTED

chapter 9

Getting to the Yan's old mansion Qin yaoxiao realized that it was extremely huge even bigger than Yan Ting's mansion .Hmmm even the Qin's family house was no match to Yan Ting's house . Even though she was momentarily stunned she concealed her emotions.

The old master came out of the house a few minutes after Yan Ting and Qin yaoxiao had arrived.

"Grandfather " Yan Ting said and bowed slightly.

" Is this your bride Qin yaoxiao "

" Yes grandfather "

" Good morning grandfather " said Qin yaoxiao.

She quickly added " and thanks the compliment "

" come inside "

Old Madam Qin was already seated and she scrutinized Qin yaoxiao with her eyes.

" Yan Ting what do you mean by cutting off the marriage I planned for you "

" Gu Yun control yourself we have a visitor " Old Master Yan exclaimed .

( Gu Yun was old Madam Yan's maiden name)

" sit down " old Madam Yan said reluctantly.

Master Yan picked up his tea to sip and Qin yaoxiao frowned.

' Grandpa don't drink the tea '

" Why ? " the old man asked.

" The tea is made of turtle shell and shagtai leaf with a little of mushroom to enhance healthiness . "

" We know don't try to prove your skills " old Madam Yan said but Qin yaoxiao ignored her .

" My daughter continue speaking "

" The mushroom used is identical and only someone with the knowledge would know the poisonous one which makes the tea darker while the healthy one makes the tea clearer and users of the healthy one would feel energetic "

The old man's face changed and became serious.

" How did you know that it was different without seeing the color "

" The scent is a little different and I know that it is older people that takes the tea so I guessed "

" Young girl can you prove it "

" Yes , grandfather do you feel your chest tighten when you wake up anytime you sleep , when you cough you cough out blood and when you walk a little you feel dizzy and tired "

" I do have those symptoms but I thought it was due to old age , Butler lu get me the servants that prepares my tea . "

Yan Ting looked at Qin yaoxiao and fell that he didn't choose the wrong person .

" Just because you have medical skills doesn't mean I would accept you " Old madam Yan said frowning at Qin yaoxiao but Qin yaoxiao maintained a smile .

The servants were brought and Qin yaoxiao requested that they bring the mushrooms .

She carefully selected the healthy one for consumption abd thought the servants how to detect the poisonous ones from the healthy ones .

" My daughter come here I have something to discuss with you " old master Yan said and Qin yaoxiao looked at Yan Ting who gave her an approving look .

She got up and followed the old man to the garden .

As Qin yaoxiao left the old woman began to talk to Yan Ting

" what is wrong with Yua Ji that you don't like her ? "

" I don't like her if you like her that much you can get married to her "

" Yan Ting am your grandmother you dare speak to me like that for this clown you brought home "

" Grandmother you really don't know Hua Ji take a look at this "

Old madam Yan saw different pictures of Yua Ji with different men at different hotels "

" This must be her past "

" Ohh you want me to marry a woman that if I take her out different men would claim to be her lover and ruin my reputation "

Old madam Yan let out a long sigh

" It's fine , I hope this one wouldn't disappoint either "

Out in the garden

" I can see that Yan Ting really likes you to have given you this ring "

" what about the ring ? "

" The ring symbolizes that he values you , all male descendants of the Yan family which are already of age are passed a copyright of this ring "

Qin yaoxiao's gaze fell on the ring and felt complex emotions but a red color spread on her cheeks .

The old man was convinced that his grandson loves Qin yaoxiao.

" So you are from the Qin family "

" Yes grandfather "

" Then I would invite Qin Shejun over to discuss your wedding "

" Thanks grandfather "

" Literally I should be the one who should thank you , you saved my life "

" um that is what I should do ad a medical personnel even though my skills are limited "

Old Master Yan looked at the lady's sincere face and smiled

" let's play chess " Old Master Yan suggested.

" Okay grandfather "

The two played for a while and the old man sighed .

" I wish my grandson could also play chess "

" ohh but he can play chess "

" he does ? "

" Yes " Qin yaoxiao remembered vividly seeing Yan Ting play chess with Yan Shen .

" But he never knew it and even refused to learn it "

" He learnt it because I suggested he should learn it so that we could play together "

Qin yaoxiao smiled and the old man sent someone to bring Yan Ting over .

" Qin yaoxiao said you could play chess and you learnt it for her , sit down let's play together "

Qin yaoxiao stiffened and looked at Yan Ting whose face was expressionless . She didn't know if she had put him in a tight spot.

" Okay grandfather "

The two played and Yan Ting won .

" I don't know when last I felt so happy Yan Ting hurry up and marry your fiancee give me VA grandchild before I die so I won't have any regrets

" Grandfather you still have a long life ahead of you , you won't die now "

" Thank you my daughter , how is Yan Shen ? "

" He is doing well " Yan Ting responded .

" I hope that little brat isn't disturbing your fiancee.

Qin yaoxiao smiled remembering how Yan Ting had talked to Yan Shen that day at the dining table and she suddenly felt like laughing out loud but she composed herself

The grandfather and grandson chatted for a little while and soon Yan Ting and Qin yaoxiao wanted to leave the old mansion are old madam Yan came out to escort them .

Qin yaoxiao felt a change in her mother - in - law's attitude which was much better .

In the car Yan Ting remained silent and Qin yaoxiao hesitated before finally talking

" what about you parents "

" they died "

" ohh am sorry to have asked and for lying to grandfather about the chess stuff "

The man remained silent and smiled .

" what would you like to eat " Yan Ting asked her .

" Am not hungry "

Just as she spoke her stomach grumbled loudly , she felt embarrassed and wished she could find a hole to hide in . The man chuckled and turned away facing the window again .

The driver stopped at a restaurant and quickly brought out Yan Ting's wheelchair over and also helped him get on it while Qin yaoxiao pushed him into the restaurant after the process was done .

They went into the VIP room of the restaurant , on their way they attracted many peoples attention as the lady was quite handsome but unlucky to be on a wheelchair . The duo ignored the gazes, both were used to it .

During the meal Qin yaoxiao studied Yan Ting and discovered that he wasn't a picky eater. He carefully peeled the shrimps for her . Looking at his neat hands she didn't think he could do such a thing for her .

After eating Qin yaoxiao noticed the direction of the car it wasn't towards Yan Ting's house .

After stopping at a salon Yan Ting said ,

" Go in and do the things necessary I would have my driver pick you up when you are done "

" How would I contact you my phone was spoilt by the rain "

Yan Ting handed her a brand new phone sure enough it was the latest model and he told her the his contact was already there ." Thanks you Ting'er " she said playfully and winked at him she was tired of always saying Thanks without anything in return .

" Hmm " the man left and she checked to see if it was her former sim and it was .
