Soft and Cute Sweet Wife: Demon, Torment Me Lightly

On the day Bai Xiaoruo and Xian Mingyu held their wedding, she had only just celebrated her 18th birthday a few days prior. Her husband was a full 8 years older than her.

In the eyes of outsi...

Chapter 23 Hidden Intentions

"No need, no need, what's the point of changing them? They didn't do anything wrong. It was your grandfather and I who thought it was too conspicuous to go out, so we didn't let them come along. What happened today was just an accident. Besides, I'm perfectly fine, so there's no need to hold them responsible anymore."

"Alright then, I'll do whatever you say."

Lin Suqing pulled Xian Mingyu's hand and sighed helplessly, "If only you really listened to me in everything."

"Grandma, when have I ever disobeyed you? As long as you say it, no matter how big the problem is, I will agree to it."

"really?"

"really."

Hearing that Xian Mingyu agreed so quickly, Lin Suqing was not happy at all. She sighed again, "Mingyu, it's not that Grandma is nagging, but your grandpa and I are getting older. Although we live in a big house and have no worries about food or clothing, we still feel lonely sometimes. Your parents are busy with work and haven't had time to come back to China for several months. I don't blame them. Your younger brother is still studying abroad and can't come back for the time being. Right now, the only one who is with Grandma is you."

“Mingyu, you’re not young anymore. Grandma knows exactly what you’ve been busy with all these years. I know you’re stubborn and no one can persuade you, but Grandma only has one wish now. Can you promise Grandma that you can let go of what happened back then, stop sending people to look for you, marry a virtuous wife, and live your own life properly?”

“Grandma…” Xian Mingyu frowned and suddenly stood up. “Grandma, I told you long ago that I will not marry any wife, and I can never let go of what happened back then. I will not give up until I hear news of her death.”

"Why are you doing this to yourself? If she really cared about you, she would have come back to you long ago. Mingyu, accept reality, Su Yuluo isn't worth waiting for all these years!"

"Alright, Grandma, I know very well what kind of person Yulu is... I will find her one day. She is definitely, and is still, waiting for me somewhere in the world."

The thought of her filled Xian Mingyu's eyes with sadness.

So many years have passed, I wonder where she is now, how she is doing. Even if it's just a dream, it would be good to give him a direction to find her and get to her side as soon as possible.

Lin Suqing couldn't bear to persuade him any further, nor did she dare to tell Xian Mingyu the truth directly. How could her foolish grandson be so naive? Even if she were to find that kind of woman, what difference would it make? With her current status, how could she be worthy of her outstanding grandson, and what right did she have to enter the Xian family?

"Alright, alright. Mingyu, sit down first. Grandma has something to tell you."

"What is it?" Xuan Mingyu sat down again.

"My handbag was stolen today, and then..."

Lin Suqing recounted to Xian Mingyu the whole story of her encounter with Bai Xiaoruo that day.

"I really owe her a lot for today's events. Otherwise, I might not have been able to find my handbag by now. If she hadn't gone home so early, Grandma would have liked you to meet her. She's quite pretty and gentle, and although she's much younger than you, she's well-behaved and sensible. She's really a wonderful girl."

"Grandma, you're here again."

Hsien Ming-yu was really frustrated.

Over the past few months, how many girls have caught Grandma's eye? She thinks everyone is good-looking and wants to force any girl on her. Just thinking about it makes Xianmingyu shudder.
