Chapter 172 Liang Ruobing’s Confession (3)_1
"If there’s nothing else, that’s fine. Let me tell you, stay away from that Liang Ruobing in the future. That girl is no good. Hmph, a bastard child dares to covet my grandson," Old Master Xiao said with a face full of contempt.
Xiao Muli looked at his grandfather and after thinking for a while, he said, "Grandfather, please don’t come to me with these matters again in the future. I already have someone I like. Apart from her, I won’t marry anyone else in this lifetime." Xiao Muli’s tone was very solemn when he said this.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Xiao suddenly became intrigued. He never thought that his grandson, who usually seemed as cold as an icicle, would actually confess to falling in love with someone, and even to the extent of refusing to marry anyone but her. "Who is this girl? Tell your grandfather so I can see if she is worthy of you." Aside from curiosity, Old Master Xiao was worried too. He was concerned that the girl Xiao Muli liked might not match their family’s status. After all, the older generation held concepts of social standing.
Xiao Muli knew what his grandfather was thinking. He pursed his lips and after pondering for a moment said, "Grandfather, rest assured, the person I like is worthy of our family." Having said that, Xiao Muli didn’t give his grandfather the chance to ask more and turned to leave the study.
Old Master Xiao then called out to Xiao Muli, "Hey, you little rascal, I haven’t finished my question, stop right there." But these words from Old Master Xiao had no effect on Xiao Muli’s departing steps. Watching Xiao Muli’s retreating figure disappearing from his sight, Old Master Xiao cursed with a laugh: "This little brat is getting less and less obedient as he grows."
Even though his words were reprimanding, there wasn’t a hint of anger in Old Master Xiao’s tone. After sitting down in the chair at his desk, he started to ponder who could be the girl his grandson liked.
Old Master Xiao considered all the girls of a similar age to Xiao Muli in this large compound, only to realize that none of these girls had any contact with his grandson. If there was any contact, it was only with the Situ Family’s girl. Thinking of this, Old Master Xiao’s eyes brightened. "If it’s the Situ Family’s girl, that would be marvelous."
