Crown Prince Zhang Youye from the Jing Circle. He was known for his noble, lazy, and unruly nature. After encountering his mother's affair, he was determined not to go through with the arranged...
"That day, after announcing Yi Yi's identity, I will announce the marriage between our two families. In that case, your wedding will be held very soon."
"Grandpa, could this be...?"
Shu Qiyi waved again, interrupting Zhang Youye before he could finish speaking, and turned to meet his gaze.
Catching the worry in Zhang Youye's eyes, Shu Qiyi smiled knowingly.
"You mean, isn't this going to be too fast?"
After saying that, he slowly sipped his tea, then slowly put the teacup down. He glanced at the indescribable expression on the man's face beside him and snorted coldly.
"Wouldn't it have been faster if you had just gone to the Civil Affairs Bureau and gotten your marriage certificate without telling this old man?"
As if certain that Shu Qiyi would know about this, Zhang Youye did not show any surprise.
His expression became even more mischievous, and he even gave Shu Qiyi a knowing smile.
"Old man, you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve."
"You're so amazing, you managed to get my granddaughter married so quickly." Shu Qiyi continued to sneer.
Meeting his gaze, Zhang Youye retracted his long legs, which were lazily stretched out in the aisle, and the smile on his lips faded.
His eyes, however, turned dark and sharp, like a defeated soldier finally regaining the spirit to fight the enemy.
"Don't worry, old man."
“I will treat Yi Yi well. I know you will question anything I say, but I still want to assure you that she will never suffer any injustice from me.”
After saying this, the two looked at each other in silence.
They engaged in a silent standoff using only complex eye contact.
It's like a hand grenade buried underground being lit, with the fuse gradually approaching the point of explosion.
In the end, the student surpasses the teacher, and in this battle of wits, Shu Qiyi was defeated.
I wanted to pick up my cane and give this kid another beating for getting on the bus first and paying the fare later.
But when he thought that this was his chosen grandson-in-law, he had to suppress the urge to teach him a lesson.
"If you dare to treat my granddaughter badly, I have plenty of ways to deal with you."
Finally, helped up from the chair, Shu Qiyi gently nudged Zhang Youye's calf with his cane and pouted in the direction of the east courtyard where Shu Yi lived.
"Since things have come to this, then hurry up and give me a great-grandson. How much longer do I have to live? I'm already waiting to hold him."
Even the old man said so.
It seems the duck meat that's already in my mouth is indeed safe to swallow.
Zhang Youye remained unfazed and changed the subject.
"Grandpa, will you announce our marriage registration at the banquet?"
"Let's not talk about it for now. As for Yi Yi, you don't need to tell her I know." Shu Qiyi gestured for Wei Bo to release his arm and stood still, leaning on his cane. "There are too many people eyeing our Shu family right now. I will only mention the marriage alliance between our two families on that day."
Noticing Shu Qiyi's signal, Zhang Youye chuckled and pressed on, "I'm more worried about what will happen if those people don't stop after the announcement?"
"You don't need to worry about that, I know what I'm doing."
