Jin Ruoxi perfunctorily took a sip of the tea on the coffee table beside her and continued, "Grandpa Chu, those rumors are very bad. They have spread throughout our school... I'm afraid it will be bad for Brother Chu's image!"

"Ruoxi! You know that grandpa is old, and grandpa has begun to let your brother Chu handle many things. Leave this matter to your brother Chu! What's more, these rumors are about your brother Chu himself!" The head of the Chu family continued to practice Tai Chi.

He swore that he would never interfere in his grandchildren's marriages again. Fate had its own destiny, so as to avoid embarrassing himself at such an old age.

Jin Ruoxi thought for a moment, then put on a pitiful expression as if she had suffered a great injustice and said, "These rumors are getting more and more outrageous in the academy. Some people even said they saw a girl get out of Brother Chu's car... Brother Chu has always been a very chaste man. I really don't want him to be slandered like this!"

"You mean there are girls in Xixuan's car? He takes girls to school?" The head of the Chu family said with his eyes suddenly lit up.

I never thought this blockhead would feel sorry for his wife and take the initiative to send her to school? →_→

"Um... Ruoxi! Listen to grandpa's advice, don't keep staring at your brother Chu. How about Xining? That kid Xining is actually not bad!" The head of the Chu family asked tentatively, "If you marry Chu Xining, you will be grandpa's granddaughter-in-law, and you can often come to accompany grandpa to drink tea and appreciate flowers! Besides, you and Xining are more suitable in age!"

"Grandpa Chu, tell me honestly, is it that Brother Chu doesn't want me? Is it that I really have no hope at all?" Jin Ruoxi's tears instantly flowed down like a flood that had been opened. She asked while crying.

When Jin Ruoxi started crying, the head of the Chu family and Chu Yu were both panicked. Chu Yu quickly pulled out several tissues and handed them to Jin Ruoxi. She sat beside Jin Ruoxi and comforted her, "Don't be sad, big sister. Grandpa will make the decision for you. He will make the decision for you!"

The Chu family's patriarch was in a state of panic. He stood up and paced back and forth in the room in frustration. After pacing twice, he stopped and apologized to Jin Ruoxi, "Grandpa is sorry for you. Chu Xixuan is already engaged to Lan Ziye, so don't even think about it!"

Jin Ruoxi's crying stopped abruptly, and her big watery eyes looked at the head of the Chu family in disbelief.

Chu Yu opened her mouth in astonishment.

After a while, Chu Yu asked in disbelief, "How is that possible? Big brother didn't hold an engagement party!"

The Chu family's eldest son's engagement was a huge deal! The news would have been on the headlines for at least a month, and the engagement party would have lasted three days and three nights. Even if it wasn't a nationwide celebration, it would have been a top priority for everyone in Lanxuan City. How could it have been so secretive that even she and Jin Ruoxi didn't know about it?

"Wasn't it that girl Lan Ziye who proposed it?" The Chu family's Patriarch liked the low-key Lan Ziye more and more. When he mentioned Lan Ziye, he said with a smile, "That girl is so low-key that she said it can't be made public before graduation!"

"Will big brother agree?" Chu Yu asked in disbelief.

If it was Chu Xixuan who proposed it, it would be understandable. Maybe Chu Xixuan didn't like Lan Ziye at all and that's why he didn't want to make it public. But if it was Lan Ziye who proposed it, it was unbelievable. Chu Xixuan didn't seem like such an obedient person, did he? →_→

"This is probably a case of one thing conquering another!"
