“Nangong, it’s your turn.”
Old Master Nangong’s face turned one shade darker, and he slammed the chess piece onto the chessboard.
“Heh, what’s the meaning of that? We’ve just started and we don’t even know who’s going to win yet. Even if I win, you shouldn’t throw the chess piece!”
Thinking of his little docile bunny-like granddaughter, Old Master Nangong’s eyes gleamed red with anger. He sneered at Old Master Chi, “Old Man Chi, don’t think I don’t know what you and your conniving second son are planning!”
The conniving Second Brother, who sat in his wheelchair, looked at Old Master Nangong in confusion. “…”
Did he do anything wrong?
All he did was brew the old man a pot of tea and made him some pastries!
Could it be that all the bad guys nowadays, like him, knew how to cook?
“What are you talking about?”
“Don’t you dare ask even though you already know the answer!” Old Master Nangong was about to die from anger. He barked rudely, “Our Nuannuan is only 17 years old. Does that big-tailed wolf of a grandson of yours have a conscience? Old Chi, I’ve given you enough face since you’re my granddaughter’s in-laws and I can tell that Nuannuan really likes Chi Yang. I don’t want my newly-acknowledged granddaughter to think badly of us, so I’ve given in to your wishes.
“Otherwise, do you think we’d let our precious granddaughter, who we just accepted back to the family, live in her future husband’s house before they’re official? Even if there’s a marriage report from the military base, the organization is the only one that has agreed to this marriage. They aren’t married yet. Even if we go back on our word, no one will dare say anything.
“However, after finally locating my long-lost granddaughter, we haven’t even had the chance to pamper her properly yet, and she’s already staying at your place every day. You guys… you guys should at least take care of our Nuannuan’s body! She’s only 17 years old, and she’s still a young girl! Don’t you think you’ve crossed a line here?”
Old Master Nangong had never appeared so embarrassed before Old Master Chi before. After all, they had been friends for so many years.
However, no matter how close they were, they could not stand the fact that their most precious family member had married into the Chi family.
The Nangong family was humble and magnanimous as they did not want to make Nuannuan unhappy. Therefore, they told Nuannuan that there were too few people in the Chi family. Since she and Chi Yang were about to get married anyway and she had already stayed in the Chi residence, she should still return to the Chi residence.
However… they did not mean it.
Ever since Nuannuan returned to the Nangong family, the men in the Nangong family wished they could keep her in the Nangong residence for the rest of her life and never let those pig trotters get close to her.
However, they knew it was impossible.
Therefore, they could only send Nuannuan back to the Chi family with the blood of pain dripping from their hearts.
However, understanding that Nuannuan and Chi Yang were deeply in love, they had probably done everything they should and should not. However, assuming was one thing, but having the truth so blatantly presented in front of him was a different thing.
Old Master Nangong had been sitting there for 20 minutes but Nuannuan and Chi Yang had not come down yet. How could Old Master Nangong not know what the two of them were doing upstairs?
This was too infuriating.
Old Master Nangong’s words made Old Master Chi feel a little embarrassed and guilty.
As a well-respected old general and the only grand marshal in Camino—even the president had to address him respectfully as Uncle. However, now that he had been the target of Old Master Nangong’s criticism, Old Master Chi could only grin as his skin color competed with his teeth in terms of paleness.
“Nangong, look at how angry you are. Who said that Nuannuan and Chi Yang are doing something inappropriate for children upstairs? These two kids went on a mission yesterday and have just returned!”
