Jian Dan lost miserably in Monopoly; out of the three players, she incurred the worst loss. Chu Liyuan did not have much of a reaction, but Grandpa was laughing very happilyâ¦
âItâs not easy! When have I ever won against Little Jian in chess?! I lost every round! This time, finally⦠Little Jian lost!â
Thatâs right! How could she lose? Jian Dan had never lost a chess game before.
What Jian Dan did not know was that Chu Zhiyuan and Chu Liyuan had formed an alliance very early on. As the saying went, alliance of the strong⦠However, how could Jian Dan understand the twists and turns in the corporate world?!
However⦠winning or losing didnât seem to be that important! What was important was the family being together!
âItâs getting late. Letâs go back.â
Chu Liyuan said after the game ended.
âSince itâs getting late, you might as well stay here today.â
Grandpa said after hearing Chu Liyuanâs words.
Jian Dan turned to look at Chu Liyuan. She felt that he was about to say something when⦠âItâs decided!â
Grandpa did not give Chu Liyuan a chance to refuse.
Jian Dan did not mind, because she and Grandpa bonded very well in terms of personalities and preferences!
âOkay.â
Since Grandpa had already said it, Jian Dan could not reject him.
At night⦠Grandpa made the two of them return to their room earlyâ¦
This subtle action made Chu Liyuan understand the reason why Grandpa asked the two of them to spend the night.
It seemed that this old man was really dying for his great-grandson; he was going to supervise them!
After a while, a figure secretly went to their room and hovered outside the door. He slowly squatted down and pressed his ear against the doorâ¦
The two of them had been married for a few months. How could there be no news at all? Were the rumors trueâwas there really something wrong with his grandson?
Chu Zhiyuan had never believed those rumors. But recently, he had wavered. Hence, he had to verify it tonightâ¦
Unexpectedly, just as he had his ear on the door⦠âOh!â
The door suddenly opened. Chu Zhiyuan lost his balance and fell into the room.
When he looked up, he saw his grandsonâs knowing expression and the dumbfounded Jian Dan.
âGrandpa, what are you doing here?â Jian Dan was baffled.
The two of them had caught glimpses of movements at the door of the room. She did not expect it to be Grandpa.
âHaha! Haha!â
Seeing Grandpa laugh awkwardly, Chu Liyuan looked at him sympatheticallyâ¦
Letâs see how you explain this to Jian Jian.
âI⦠dropped something. Iâm looking for it! Haha.â
Chu Zhiyuan tried his best to look normal.
âDropped something? What is it? Is it very important? Letâs help Grandpa look for it!â
Only Jian Dan would believe it.
Chu Zhiyuan could also tell that his motive had probably been seen through by Liyuanâthis bratâwho acted like it had nothing to do with him.
The two of them kept communicating with their eyesâ¦
Are you just going to watch??
What can 1 do?
Think of something!
I got nothing. Deal with it yourself! Please begin your performance.
âWhat are you two doing?â
No matter how slow Jian Dan was, the two of them had been looking at each other for so long that she could sense that something was wrong.
Fine! You donât want to help, right? No problem. At most, 1â11 just lay it out and see whoâs the one to be embarrassed in the end.
âErm, Little Jian, thereâs something 1 want to ask you. About Liyuanâsâ¦â
Chu Liyuan immediately saw through Grandpaâs intentions and pulled him aside as he whispered, âIf you keep standing here, the thing youâre thinking about will definitely not happen.â
âNo problem. Iâm gone!â
As long as he could get his great-grandson posthaste, he would do anything!
âDidnât Grandpa have something to ask me? Why did he leave?â
Jian Dan asked as she looked at Chu Liyuan; she was getting increasingly puzzled.
âItâs nothing. Iâve already answered him⦠Letâs go!â
He swept Jian Dan up in his arms⦠and closed the door with his legâ¦
Grandpa was not the only one who was anxious. Chu Liyuan was also looking forward to it..
