Chapter 377 - 355 Ye Cheng has a seizure_2
"Xuexue," Old Xu sighed, "Grandfather has really stuck his neck out for you."
"Don’t worry, Grandfather," Xu Xuezi took a deep breath, "As long as Yecheng arrives, he won’t escape the palm of our hands."
"You too, perform well tonight," Old Xu patted Xu Xuezi’s shoulder, "After all, Yecheng is a young man, strong and vigorous, and inevitably impulsive in some matters. Once tonight is over, some things will no longer be up to the Gu Family to decide, but instead will be controlled by our Xu Family."
"Mhm," Xu Xuezi lowered her head, her face bashful, "Your granddaughter will definitely not disappoint you, Grandfather."
...
"Ah, Yecheng," Old Xu sat opposite Yecheng, his face kind and amiable, "You and I have never really had a good sit-down chat, have we?"
Ye Cheng’s face showed a faint smile, light as a cloud on a sunny day, breezy and gentle, but his presence was by no means weaker than the elder opposite him. On the contrary, he seemed even more formidable.
Old Xu had of course noticed this. Yecheng, this man would surely achieve greater things than the Prime Minister of the Gu Family in the future. Such a man, if not made a part of the family, would be most dangerous for the Xu Family.
"I should have been the one to visit you, Grandpa Xu, but my dad was afraid I’d slack off and tarnish his reputation, so he insisted on keeping me busy. I’ve been away from the Imperial Capital for three years, and I’m unfamiliar with everything here. Having just taken over, it’s inevitable that I’m a bit flustered and therefore haven’t had the time to visit you."
