He had been trying his best for the past 20 years, but he still couldn’t get his father-in-law to accept him. What did this fella do that got his father-in-law to like him?
Zhan Lichuan was accepted when they were in the same situation and with no children.
How did he do it?
There would be no concern if there wasn’t any comparison.
DiJingxuan felt that he had been deeply hurt.
Zhan Lichuan put on a straight face and asked, “Dad, is this because of grandfather?”

“What do you think? What did you do behind my back?”
Zhan Lichuan answered honestly and said, “Dad, I didn’t do anything, but I think I know why grandfather has been treating me this way.”
“Why?” Di Jingxuan asked.
“The press release of the new concept fire truck has been a success. When the military saw the value in the new concept fire truck, they approached me and asked if I could do the same for their tanks. I promised them that I would be able to design a tank that could travel through forests without being seen by
their enemies. If any countries wanted it from me, I would sell it for 1 billion each. That’s when the country awarded me a merit for the National Invention Meritorious Award. The ceremony will be at the end of the year and grandfather might be the one personally giving me the award.”
Di Jingxuan was speechless!
If that was the case, he would never be liked by his father-in-law.
This was because other than loving his wife and making money, the only thing that he knew was how to fight and kill.
As he looked at Zhan Lichuan, he was envious of him.
“Also, I noticed that he cared a lot about what I called him. Instead of Grandpa, I called him Grandfather, and since both you and mum did not stop me, I thought that it was allowed. So, I continued addressing him as grandfather instead.”**
Di Jingxuan narrowed his eyes.
This smart boy!
He looked at Zhan Lichuan for a long time before putting his arm around Zhan Lichuan’s shoulder, acting as if they were close friends.
“Ah Chuan, what do you think of me?”
Zhan Lichuan said, “You have allowed me to marry your daughter and did not have much of an opinion about it. I am deeply grateful for what you have done. Dad, I have an idea on how you can get grandfather to change his opinion about you.”
“Tell me about it,” Di Jingxuan quickly said.
“have been working on a research project, something that would benefit society in the medical industry.
“If it works, those who are blind would be able to see things with the glasses that I have designed. They would be able to see the shapes of the object with the reflective rays. Although it might still be in black and white, it would still allow the blind to see something.
“However, this is still in the thinking process and I have not mentioned it to anyone yet. Dad, you can tell me if there’s anything that you think of. We can collaborate to develop it. I’m sure that grandfather would be glad to hear that.”
Di Jingxuan’s eyes lit up with hope, ‘Is that really possible?”
“Tm going to be honest with you, for the past four months, when I laid in bed, I have been coming up with new ideas. Some of them have been developed, but they are still in the testing period.”
“So the blind will be able to see things after wearing these glasses?”
“They won’t use their eyes to see. It’s just that their brains would be able to detect the reflections.”
Di Jingxuan widened his eyes in shock.
To be honest, he had always known that Zhan Lichuan was a talented man, since he was able to make Ops Corporates the richest family in H City within five years. This was not something that could be easily done by just anyone, but he didn’t expect for Zhan Lichuan to be this good.
**TL : In Chinese society, there are different ways of addressing grandparents. Wai Gong’ would usually be used for maternal grandpa and ‘Ye Ye’ would refer to paternal grandfather. Therefore, Zhan Lichuan has been calling Master Xie Ye Ye’ instead of ‘Wai Gong’ which indicates that the Xie family is the
main family instead of the Di family..
