Chapter 745: Old Master He
"Xiaonan, since you’re unwilling to disclose the identity of the other party, I don’t want to press you now, but let me be clear, if the other party’s background isn’t clean, or if she’s some uneducated country girl, I will not agree,"
His son was going to marry a bride, and it had to be someone with a clean background. Marrying the wrong woman could ruin three generations; the He Family could not afford that loss of face.
"You’ll be satisfied sooner or later," He Nan glanced at the time and said, "I have something else to take care of later and need to head out. If you have nothing else, you should go back and rest early too!"
Fu Hua stood up, "Find a time to talk to your grandfather about this. Keeping something as significant as courting a secret from the family, I don’t know what you’re thinking."
"Understood."
He Nan saw Fu Hua out to the door, and after watching her car leave, he too turned and drove off.
On the road, the more Fu Hua thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She didn’t want her son to be involved with Shen Mianmian, but she feared even more that he might find someone worse than Shen Mianmian. After much thought, she decided it would be more reassuring to investigate Shen Mianmian’s background.
Instead of going straight home, Fu Hua went to visit the old Mr. He, who was in the yard watering the flowers. Despite being seventy years old and having a head full of white hair, he still stood tall and exuded a resolute and righteous air.
"Dad, there’s something I’d like to talk to you about."
Upon hearing this, the old Mr. He took the towel the butler handed him, wiped his hands, and said, "Let’s talk inside."
