The old house has a fresh and unconventional style, with white stucco walls combined with light red roof tiles, continuous archways and corridors, and high ceilings with large floor-to-ceiling windows.
He looks like a wicked capitalist.
Han Xiao led her up to the third floor and stopped in front of a purple nanmu wood door.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
In the past, the host family members were all afraid of her great-grandfather because she kept pursuing Han Xiao and expressing her love for him. After all, she was Han Xiao's "daughter" in name only, and it was too improper for her to ask her "father" for love. The old man felt that this violated the family rules and had always disliked her.
The host suffered no shortage of disdain and bullying from his great-grandfather in the old house.
Han Xiao knew this before, but she never cared. But things are different now...
He squeezed Dou Shiliu's little hand, then pushed open the door and entered.
The first thing I saw was an old man sitting in a wicker chair.
"grandfather"
The old man, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, his sharp, eagle-like gaze fixed on Han Xiao, inspiring awe.
Are you sure you want to do this?
The old man slowly rose, supporting himself on the edge of the wicker chair, his eyes fixed on his only grandson, and murmured something.
"yes"
Your father won't agree.
"Ignore him"
"You know she's not suitable to be the mistress of this Han family."
I will protect her.
Suddenly, the old man's voice became urgent and louder.
"Can you protect him forever?"
He'd never shown any interest in this woman before, so why did he fall for her this time?
Han Xiao stared intently at the old man, her gaze unwavering, "I can protect him."
"Look at your age! You're 28! Even if you want to find a wife, your grandpa will arrange it for you! I don't agree to this!"
In the past, he was always busy with work and would make excuses to avoid the blind dates arranged by him. After refusing a few times, he just let it go, since there were only a handful of wealthy and powerful families in Beijing anyway.
He never expected that she would bring his 18-year-old adopted daughter, whom he had casually taken in, to see him! It's infuriating!
"I'm just letting you know."
It means whether you agree or disagree has nothing to do with his decision.
"you!……"
The grandfather and grandson remained deadlocked for a long time.
Seeing that the two of them were ignoring the person in question, Dou Shiliu shook Han Xiao's hand, which was holding hers, and whispered in his ear, "Grandpa talks too much, and he's really rude!"
They actually said she wasn't suitable to be Han Xiao's wife! That's bad enough, but to want to introduce him to other women? That's going too far!
Han Xiao's previously furrowed brows relaxed considerably because of her muttered remark.
The old man was so angry at their flirtatious glances that his beard bristled!
He hasn't agreed yet, okay? Can you please stop showing off in front of him?
Judging from this, his grandson is probably convinced that the Cold Clothes Fruit is the one.
well--
Oh well, let them be. Just let him hold his great-grandchild as soon as possible.
Han Xiao saw that the old man remained silent, and knew that he had agreed.
Next, we discussed the subsequent countermeasures with him.
Dou Shiliu knew that it was inconvenient for her to be there at this time.
He then said, "Hanxiao, I want to go out and play. You can talk to Grandpa about it."
The old man sitting to the side showed a hint of appreciation.
This girl knows when to advance and when to retreat; she knows what to listen to and what not to listen to.
Han Xiao figured there was no danger in the old house, so after giving her some instructions, he let her go.
After watching her leave, he dropped his tender expression, his aura instantly turning icy as he continued their discussion.
His face changed very quickly
The old man rolled his eyes: "…………" I've never seen you be so gentle with your grandpa before!
...
Behind the old mansion is a garden filled with countless flower seeds, all sourced from around the world by the old man himself.
Every day, a regular servant takes meticulous care of the plants, and the various flowers bloom in a dazzling array of colors, vying for attention with their fragrance.
Dou Shiliu reached out and plucked a rose from the crisscrossing rose vines. The blood-red petals accentuated her jade-white, well-defined hand, making it appear even more pristine and breathtakingly beautiful.
The host remembers a swing made of vines in the center of a cluster of flowers, which he heard was specially made by Hanxiao's father to please his wife.
Thinking about it, she ventured deeper into the garden and indeed found the place. The swing vines were covered with small blue flowers, which matched the light blue tulle dress that Dou Shiliu was wearing today.
She tiptoed over, gripped the vine tightly, sat up, moved her feet back and then pulled them back. Suddenly, the wind blew her fine hair, gently brushing against her face. Her delicate eyebrows curved like an ethereal fairy.
Like a flower fairy who has secretly descended to earth to play, amidst a profusion of blossoms, all other flowers pale in comparison.
It was so beautiful it took my breath away; I was afraid of disturbing the graceful flower fairies in the courtyard.
When Han Xiao arrived, she saw this scene and was momentarily stunned.
Watching Dou Shiliu soar upwards, seemingly about to transform into an immortal, Han Xiao was startled and quickly ran to grab it.
I almost thought she was going to ascend to immortality and leave him forever.
Dou Shiliu watched the swing gradually come to a stop, then let go and rushed into Han Xiao's arms. She was so bored if he didn't come soon.
He held the person in his arms tightly, his eyes as gentle as water.
"let's go"
Dou Shiliu nodded at him.
...
"Boss, Han Xiao is about to come out of the old house."
"Have you notified them?"
"Notification has been given."
Helio raised a thick eyebrow, took a drag of his opium pipe, and exhaled a cloud of stale air.
"We don't need to get involved in this now."
The scarred man was taken aback and asked, puzzled, "Why?"
