Chapter 607: Do You Want a Grand Daughter-in-law?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The butler standing at the side hinted with his eyes, but the Old Master just could not see it and started yelling into his phone.
There was no response from Huo Jinyan.
“Say something, you brat! You haven’t been back for such a long time and you can’t even speak? What’s so attractive about that place that you’re in such a hurry to leave?!
“Are you trying to drive me to death?!
“Say something!’
The Old Master was really furious. The more he spoke, the angrier he became.
Huo Jinyan listened calmly as he leaned against the car. Finally, he spoke slowly.
“Grandfather, do you still want a grand daughter-in-law?”
These words stunned the Old Master.
After a full two minutes of silence, he said in disbelief, “What!? What did you say?!”
A shocked voice came from the other end of the phone.
The phone was on speaker mode, so the butler heard and was very excited.
“Old Master, Old Master, the Young Master must be chasing after a girl!’
Only then did the Old Master react. He was so happy that he was gaping in excitement.
“Really? Really?!’
What he had been most worried about in his life was Huo Jinyan’s marriage. With that boy’s temperament, it was truly impossible for any girl to fall for him. Even if she did, she would be angered to death by his bad temper in a few days.
The Old Master really did not expect Huo Jinyan to leave to chase after a girl and immediately forgave him.
“Yes.
Huo Jinyan responded indifferently, but it was not difficult to tell that he was also happy.
The Old Master stood up and happily paced around the room. “Good, good, good! Great! That’s great!”
Hearing his excitement, Huo Jinyan could not help but want to tease him a bit.
“But Grandfather, that girl—
Before he could finish speaking, the Old Master immediately said, “It’s fine! As long as the girl is an adult, as long as you like her, I’m okay with anybody! Don’t talk about it anymore! I’m going to pay respects to our ancestors! I must tell your parents this good news! Also! Don’t come back if you can’t woo her!”
Hearing the busy tone on the other end, Huo Jinyan helplessly took his phone from his ear and put it back in his pocket.
He could not help but smile. He looked up at the lit window.
There seemed to be a sea of stars shining in his eyes.
After washing up, Lu Ning sat on the bed and looked at her phone. There were many messages on her cell phone; Lu Ning tapped on them.
There was also a message from Huo Jinyan.
She opened the chat box and looked at the message he had sent. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, but before she could reply, a message suddenly popped up. She was stunned and immediately tapped on it.
She received a reply to the message she had sent to her teacher previously.
[Ning’ning, I’m sorry. Teacher has been in confinement recently and didn’t see
your messages. Wait for me, I’ll take a look.]
[Ningning! Is this vase in your hands now?! Can I go and take a look?] [Ningning! Is this calligraphy painting with you now? Can I verify it myself?] [Ningning, from the looks of it, based on your photos, they are all authentic!] [Ningning, let me go there to take a look. 1 must personally appraise it!] [Ningning! Take good care of these. Don’t break them!]
Lu Ning looked at the messages and could not help but ponder for a moment.
For the first time, she began to doubt her teacher’s words.
Are they really authentic?
In that case, why didn’t Daddy look at these items as if they were precious?
The moment my trophy arrived, it instantly replaced the center position of the vase…
