Shi Nian: "..."
The old man said, "Besides those three, there are seven others. I'll have them all come back when they have some free time so they can pay their respects to you!"
Shi Nian: "..."
The way the word "pay respects" is used... Did Grandpa really intend to help her prepare a harem and find these men back then?
Speaking of which, Rong Qing and the others all know why their grandfather took them back. Don't they have any objections at all?
Shi Nian couldn't help but turn her gaze to them.
Then, his body froze...
All three of them looked at her with adoring eyes, their expressions pleading for her favor.
Shi Nian: "???"
Do they have a visual impairment and can't see her ugly appearance?
…
Shi Nian and the old man chatted alone for a while longer.
Despite the old man's repeated requests for her to move back to live here in the future, she still refused his request.
But she promised him that she would come back to see him every week from now on.
However, the old man insisted that she stay overnight.
Shi Nian also had feelings for him, so she called home and told her grandfather.
Only after getting her grandfather's permission did she agree to stay overnight.
She also subtly told the old man that she didn't need the men he had arranged for her.
Tell him to tell those men that if they want to settle down, they can go find someone themselves.
But the old man ruthlessly rejected this request.
In the end, she had no choice but to give up trying to persuade him.
Because they couldn't persuade them.
She could only plan to talk to Rong Qing and the others privately later, telling them to take advantage of their youth and secretly look for someone outside, and then make it public after her grandfather passed away.
…
After dinner, the old man asked Rong Qing and the others to take Shi Nian around the manor and help them get to know each other.
So, the three men accompanied her for a stroll.
Shi Nian discovered that this manor was actually larger than a typical small park.
Shi Nian didn't go back until almost 10 o'clock.
Back at the villa, Rong Qing smiled and said to her, "It's getting late. Let me take you to your room. You can tidy up and get some rest."
Led by Rong Qing, she arrived at the door of a room on the third floor of the villa.
He opened the door, and inside was a pink room, like a princess's room in a fairy tale.
“Although you’ve been away from home all these years, your grandfather has always had your room decorated according to your age, and he’ll change your clothes every season.” Rong Qing gently patted her head. “Get some rest, goodnight.”
His demeanor was very comfortable, and even though they had only just met, Shi Nian was unusually not averse to his touch.
She nodded and politely replied, "Good night, you should get some rest too."
Rong Qing chuckled: "Okay, I'll go to sleep after my evening class."
Just then, Xiao Mingyue brought up a cup of hot milk and handed it to Shi Nian: "I was worried that you might not be able to sleep at night because you've just come back and are not used to it. Have a cup of hot milk to help you sleep."
"Thank you." Shi Nian took the milk, revealing a sweet and serene smile.
Then, Rong Qing and Xiao Mingyue went downstairs together.
Shi Nian took the milk into the room.
But she had only drunk half of it when she suddenly heard what sounded like outside.
Because the door was closed, I couldn't hear very clearly.
She couldn't help but open the door and go outside.
As soon as the door opened, she heard a group of men's loud and energetic voices coming from downstairs...
"Every thought is heaven, every thought is earth, every thought is our life!"
Old man (very loudly): "Our slogan is—"
"Spoil her, spoil her, spoil her for a lifetime!"
Shi Nian: "Pfft..." A mouthful of milk sprayed out.
Is this the evening class Rong Qing was talking about?
How...how scary...
