Miao Lingling twitched her lips subconsciously. Pretty good? What about Chu Wuyou did Elder Leng think was pretty good?
How could the old man say these words against his conscience?
Li Min clenched her teeth in rage. Was Elder Leng blind or something? Did he just say that Chu Wuyou was pretty good? Ninger was much better in comparison. The Leng family should have been here to request for Ninger’s hand in marriage instead.
She figured all members of the Leng family were blind and could not differentiate good from bad.
The rest of them also seemed surprised upon listening to Elder Leng’s comment, even Chu Wuyou appeared slightly shocked. What was the reason behind this remark?
Elder Leng’s unexpected comment astonished her so greatly that she forgot about the speech that she had mentally prepared prior coming here.
She regarded Elder Leng with her lips slightly pursed. Could it be possible that the man did this deliberately?
“Old pal, you’re really fortunate to have such a good granddaughter.” Elder Leng turned to face Elder Chu with admiration written all over his face.
“Indeed.” The latter revealed a satisfied and smug smile.
Chu Ninger, who was sitting on the side, appeared visibly upset. She was also Grandpa’s granddaughter so why had only that stupid Chu Wuyou been complimented?
“I’m not as lucky in comparison. My grandson only makes me worry excessively. He’s already turning thirty but he has neither established a family nor a career. He has nothing. Sigh, it’s really unfortunate.” Elder Leng shook his head and sighed continuously.
His words upset Miao Lingling. How could the old man criticize his own grandson like this in front of outsiders? Was he genuinely here for the marriage proposal?
Elder Chu was unsure of what to say thus he only returned a polite smile.
Chu Wuyou’s eyes twinkled with brilliance. Elder Leng was such an interesting man. Why had he described his grandson as completely worthless if he was here with the intention to propose a marriage on behalf of Young Master Leng?!
However, she had to admit that Elder Leng had messed up her plans. Initially, she thought of making things clear as soon as she arrived so she could leave soon, but the old man did not even grant her the opportunity to speak her mind
Elder Leng did not mention anything about the marriage proposal since the minute she stepped foot into the house. It seemed that he was determined in not giving her any chance to decline.
Besides, the way he described his grandson as a complete failure made it difficult for the others to comment further.
Indeed, veterans were better than newcomers.
Elder Leng deserved to be one of the most powerful men in the city. Awesome!
Chu Wuyou thought to herself that she must bring up the main topic no matter how Elder Leng tried to evade the major issue by engaging in minor ones.
Simultaneously, however, Li Xin dashed into the room out of the blue with a hint of excitement written all over her face. “Someone delivered a large amount of flowers for the First Young Lady. It’s amazing to see beautiful roses filling up an entire truck.”
Li Xin seemed shocked to discover Chu Wuyou in the main hall. She quickly smoothed away the surprise to urge the lucky woman. “First Young Lady, hurry outside to have a look.”
Li Xin was the daughter of Uncle Li and Aunt Wu. Her parents had been working for the Chu family for a long time. Their daughter was currently studying in a university in Jin City and she would come to the Chu Residence from time to time.
She decided to come here today coincidentally and was completely stunned upon realizing the truck full of roses parked by the main gate.
Chu Ninger, who was already loathing her sibling, almost lost her mind upon listening to Li Xin’s discovery. She was jealous that someone would gift that stupid and hideous woman flowers. That person must either be blind or a lunatic.
The news caught Chu Wuyou by surprise. A truck full of flowers? Roses even? Who was behind this?
Who would give her a truck full of roses?!
