Grandpa rarely cared about the business, and after he handed over the Raymond Corporation to him, he had been in the hospital for treatment, living a cushy retirement life.

Aside from that acquisition, lan really couldn’t think of anything else he had done that would make grandpa so pleased, so he naturally continued:

“Grandpa, it’s my job, and I’ll keep pushing.”
