"Achoo—" A thousand miles away, the old man, wearing brightly colored floral shorts and with a small, graying braid at the back of his head, was sitting on the beach sunbathing, his eyes half-closed, when suddenly he sneezed. That brat must have been talking about him badly again. He beckoned, and his subordinate, Agan, immediately trotted over, smiling and bowing respectfully, "Grandpa, what can I do for you?"
"Let me ask you, did I send the woman I chose for that brat over?" He can't wait to hold his grandson.
"Your Excellency, are you referring to that female PhD student who studied abroad? I just received word that she got lost near Young Master's Rose Manor and hasn't found the place yet. Do you think we should send someone to pick her up?"
Sigh, the old man's taste is quite bizarre. The women he chooses for his son are all imposing and strong, even more manly than men, with the excuse that "big butts mean good fertility." Or they are women who are decent in appearance but have problems with their intelligence or emotional intelligence.
No wonder none of those women caught the young master's eye; they were all rejected! He almost suspected that the young master wasn't the old man's biological son, but either picked up from a trash can or given away as a free gift with a phone top-up.
"Forget it, forget it," the old man waved his hand. "If she's this stupid, her son will be a fool too."
Ahem, you know that too—
He paused, then suddenly remembered something and ordered, "Young Master just called about a woman. Investigate her now. Find out her background, what she looks like, how smart she is, what her body is like. In short, find out everything, no matter how small!"
"Yes, sir."
...
Philadelphia, Rose Hill.
That night, the entire resort was enveloped in darkness, dotted with starlight, a truly breathtaking sight.
Yi Yi's hands were still tied, and her hair was disheveled as she sat at the dining table, watching Mu Nanxun eat with elegant posture.
Wow~ those green, crunchy leaves look so delicious, and that white thing that's steaming looks so refreshing to eat.
Even Mao Mao has a whole bunch of fresh food in front of her, but she doesn't! This is so unfair!
Yi Yi silently swallowed, her stomach rumbling in protest. She was hungry—
"What is this? Is it edible? How does it taste?"
It's not her fault. She used to only eat bland and tasteless things like dew. She had never seen so many different kinds of food before.
Mu Nanxun slowly forked a small piece of salad and casually waved it in front of Yi Yi.
Wow, the food's here!
Yi's eyes lit up, and she opened her mouth to bite, but bit into nothing. Mu Nanxun accurately fed the salad into his own mouth, looking quite pleased.
I don't usually notice it, but he ate his dinner with particular relish tonight!
Yi was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth!
"Brother Xun, I think we should send her away. Even if she was sent by the old man, her intelligence..." Xia Bingqing hesitated. She had figured it out; although this woman was good-looking, she probably looked like a fool. Not only did she not recognize a cell phone, she didn't even recognize these foods.
"Yes, yes, let me go!" Yi Yi nodded frantically. If she stayed here any longer, this man would torture her to death.
Mu Nanxun paused what he was doing, glanced at her, and said, "Let you go? You don't want the money anymore?"
