Chapter 406 Dealing with Old Man Sun
"Old Zhao said his daughter wants to interview me at Xiangcheng TV. Hey, I'm just wondering, there are so many capable people in this world, why is she targeting me?"
While complaining, Old Sun looked at Murong Ting and said, "If you ask me, only you are reliable. Every year you come over to chat about the world and play chess with me. You don't have any of those vulgar and unnecessary thoughts! You are a true friend!"
Murong Ting: "Uh..."
He looked at Old Sun, who seemed to want to say something but hesitated.
Seeing his expression, Old Master Sun thought he had made a mistake and wanted to take back his move, so he immediately said, "Hey, once a move is made, it can't be taken back. You can't play it again!"
Murong Ting sighed deeply and said helplessly, "I won't repeat it."
After walking back and forth for a few steps, he carefully asked, "Old Sun, aren't you bored staying in the villa every day? Don't you really want to go out for a walk?"
Sun Ronghai looked at him with surprise: "How could a villa be boring? I spend my days planting flowers and walking birds in my backyard. It's so pleasant. On the contrary, I don't like what those people outside say. Why go out and get upset?"
Murong Ting choked for a moment, then thought for a moment and continued, "You can't do it this way, you'll become out of touch with modern society."
"So what if I take my clothes off? I'm old enough to have everything I need, so why should I care?"
Murong Ting: "..."
Taking a deep breath, he changed his strategy and put it more bluntly: "Old Sun, I know you're not short of money, but you're short of friends. If you keep staying at home like this, you'll get Alzheimer's. Dou Dou, do you think what your uncle said is right?"
The little boy, nicknamed DouDou, immediately chimed in, "Grandpa... uh, Grandpa, I think Uncle Murong is absolutely right. Daddy and Mommy are busy with work in Kyoto and haven't had time to come back and spend time with us. It's really sad for us grandpa and grandson to be left behind like this!"
"But I'm a little better off than you. When I grow up and get a girlfriend, I'll have my own family, and then I won't have time to spend with you anymore. You'll become a real empty nester. So take advantage of the present and go out to make more friends."
Old Sun gently flicked his grandson's cheek: "You brat, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Old Sun, look at your awareness, it's not even as high as a child's." Murong Ting patted Dou Dou's head and praised her from the bottom of his heart: "What a filial child."
DouDou's eyes lit up, and she continued, "Grandpa, I know a snack street at the foot of the mountain. The food there is really delicious. Can you take me there to make some friends? Okay?"
Grandpa Sun stared at his grandson, feigning anger, and said, "Oh, so you were waiting for me here. I guess you're just greedy."
DouDou's thoughts were exposed, and she smiled shyly.
Murong Ting chimed in, "Speaking of food, Kyoto has even more delicious food. Old Sun, you should really go back to Kyoto sometime. Kyoto now is not the same as it used to be. It has developed very quickly, and there are countless talented young people. There is a woman named Kong Wange from the Wen family. Her medical skills are no worse than yours back then. If you have the chance, you can get to know her and have a good exchange. It's much more interesting than you staying at home."
"Kyoto?" DouDou's interest was immediately piqued. "Grandpa, I want to go to Kyoto too. If I go to Kyoto, can I see Daddy and Mommy?"
Murong Ting pressed his advantage: "Yes, yes, family members should get together more often."
Old Sun scoffed, "You brat, I've figured it out. You're not here to play chess with me today, you're here to act as someone else's go-between. Do you really think I don't remember who Kong Wange is?"
Murong Ting blinked: "You...know him?"
Old Sun laughed and scolded, "Stop pretending. Back then, when your grandfather wanted you to get married, you were a hundred times unwilling and complained to me a lot. Although I've never met this person, I've heard his name so many times that I'm sick of it."
Murong Ting denied it outright, saying, "Did I complain to you? Don't slander me!"
Old Sun glared at him: "I'm slandering you? I still have the recording, why don't we listen to it together?"
Murong Ting chickened out and said awkwardly, "I think... there's no need for that."
Old Sun teased, "What, you've finally fallen for her after five years of marriage? I never thought you'd be asking for favors. It's rare, truly rare. I really want to meet this Kong Wange. What kind of girl is she that can keep you so docile? Tell me, what favor do you need?"
Murong Ting tossed the chess piece into the chess basket beside him and said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's nothing serious, she just wants to invite you to dinner."
Old Sun waved his hand and said, "It's just a meal. I thought it was something important. Why are you beating around the bush like this?"
Murong Ting touched his nose guiltily: "It's not a big deal, but the scale might be a bit large. We'll be eating at the Wen family's house."
"I understand, they want to use my reputation." Old Sun said irritably, "Look at your sycophantic look, alright, alright, I don't think you're in the mood to play chess today. I agree to this, you go and do your thing."
"As expected of Old Sun, he's a true friend!" Murong Ting was overjoyed. "Then let's get together another day."
After saying that, he immediately got up and ran away.
They acted as if staying even a moment longer would mean certain death.
Old Sun stood behind, speechless: "..."
What a shameless brat who values women over friends!
...
When Murong Ting came out of the villa, the sun had already set.
The sky was dyed crimson by the sunset, but unfortunately he had no time to appreciate it.
After his sixth call to Kong Wange was ruthlessly cut off, he went straight to the hotel where Kong Wange was staying.
As for how he knew where Kong Wange's hotel was, it was thanks to the little spy in his family who kept in touch with him.
Upon arriving at the hotel, after knocking on the door, Kong Wange's voice came from inside after a short while: "Who is it?"
Murong Ting cleared his throat lightly, then deliberately lowered his voice: "Hello, ma'am, room service."
A moment later, the door opened.
When Kong Wange saw Murong Ting, dressed in a suit and tie, at the door, she was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned serious and was about to close the door.
Murong Ting couldn't allow such a thing to happen. He stretched out his leg, wedged it in the door, and then pushed it open, darting inside like an eel.
Kong Wange: "..."
She asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Murong Ting knew that in the current situation, saying more would be useless; clarifying the misunderstanding was the best course of action.
He slammed the door shut and looked at Kong Wange urgently and earnestly, saying, "Wanwan, today's events were all a misunderstanding. I can explain!"
Kong Wange sneered, opened the door and pushed him out: "Sorry, I don't want to hear it. Save those sweet words for your ex, don't disgust me with them."
"I have no old feelings for anyone, I only have one new love, bah! No, not a new love, from beginning to end I've only had you, Wanwan!"
