Chapter 353 The Engagement of That Year
"Dad, I'm not basking in the sun, I'm basking in the sunset." Bai Jianxun walked in from outside with a smile on his face. He pulled the curtains to block out the light in the room.
Old Master Bai sat on a bamboo chair, his eyes closed, swaying slightly, with a cup of cold tea next to him.
"Jianxun, what do you think about this matter?"
"What's the matter, Dad?"
Old Master Bai raised his eyes slightly and said with a stern face, "Put away those foxy ways in front of me, you little brat! You three brothers and sisters, all the tricks are on you!"
"Hehe, Dad, I'll just take it as you praising my intelligence." Bai Jianxun sat on the sofa next to him, grinning, "Dad, since Weiyang is willing to do this, then nothing else matters."
Old Master Bai frowned, his legs felt even more painful.
"That kid's been a little confused lately."
"Well, it's because they're still too young, so they're more concerned about romance. They live in the same aristocratic district anyway, so I've watched them grow up, and they probably won't cause any waves. It's just that..." Bai Jianxun narrowed his eyes and changed his tone to become a little serious, "Haoran, compared to his father, is truly even better than his father."
Mr. Bai frowned, picked up two recreation balls, and turned them in his palm.
Bai Jianxun carefully observed Mr. Bai's expression. His eyes were sparkling, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
Ever since that incident happened, the old man called him in, but he had been talking about work and only suddenly brought up Bai Weiyang's matter.
Bai Jianxun narrowed his eyes.
Although the old man dotes on Bai Weiyang more than anyone else, it seems... the old man doesn't seem to agree with this marriage.
That's not right either.
The marriage between Weiyang and Haoran was arranged by the old man himself.
Several thoughts flashed through Bai Jianxun's mind, while Old Master Bai sighed slowly and said to himself, "Qinghui, your son and grandson are not like you."
The Qinghui mentioned by the old man is Lin Qinghui, Lin Haoran’s grandfather.
Back then, Lin Qinghui was Mr. Bai's partner. When the two were on a mission, Lin Qinghui sacrificed himself to save Mr. Bai. Before his death, he arranged a marriage for his child with Mr. Bai.
At that time, both of them had only one son. After Bai Jianxun and Bai Mengchen were born, Lin Jiangdong was already several years older than them.
Later, it became a marriage agreement for the third generation.
This led to the marriage of Lin Haoran and Bai Weiyang.
Bai Jianxun looked at the world map hanging on the wall. He suddenly smiled and said, "How could they not look alike, Dad? After all, they are father and son, grandfather and grandson. I heard that the Lin family was in trouble back then. If it weren't for you saving the situation, Uncle Lin's wife and children would have long since left this aristocratic district."
Mr. Bai lowered his eyes and said, "Don't say that. After all, he died for me."
Bai Jianxun shrugged and smiled, "Okay, I won't say anything. Dad, do you have any other instructions? If not, then I'm leaving. I have to go back to work."
Mr. Bai suddenly raised his head and said, "Jianxun, your niece is getting married now. What's going on between you and your partner? If you're sure, when will you bring her home next time so I can see her?"
"When the time is right, I will definitely bring her." Bai Jianxun smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry about my affairs. You should worry about my sister. She is so old. If she doesn't find a partner soon, she will really be unable to get married."
