Chapter 1349: Envy In Caps
“Good, good, good. That’s great. Nuannuan, considering how well you and I hit it off, why don’t I acknowledge you as my god-granddaughter?”
“Old Man Xu, have you any shame? Not only did you steal our student, but you even tried to steal our chances at being her relatives?” Grandfather Liu from Emperor District University howled.
“I also want Nuannuan to be my god-granddaughter!”
“Me too!”
At this moment, everyone turned to look at Old Master Nangong and Old Master Chi, hoping to become Nuannuan’s god-grandfathers.
Nuannuan, “…”
“You guys crossed a line there! We finally found Nuannuan after going through so much. We haven’t even had enough time to love our little princess yet. How can we let you acknowledge her as your god-granddaughter so quickly?” Grandpa Nangong stood up and declared his sovereignty over Nuannuan overbearingly.
“I’ve summoned all of you, my old friends, here today just to let everyone see our future grand daughter-in-law. I don’t have any other intentions,” Grandpa Chi also turned them down ‘implicitly’.
All of the old masters pursed their lips.
As though it was not hard enough to miss the fact that the two old men were here to show off.
Yet, what else could they do?
They were really envious to see such a sweet and cute girl who had good grades, was so polite, and had the right sense of morality!
Chi Yang was in a good mood when he saw that his little girl was so well-liked by these elders. Although he was silent, he remained by Nuannuan’s side throughout.
Seeing how protective Chi Yang was toward his wife, the elders could not help but tease him.
“Chi Yang, you’ve really surprised us. Considering how inactive you’ve been before this, even your grandfather thought that it’d be very difficult for you to get a wife in this lifetime. Little did we expect that the second you made a move, you’d have chosen the best candidate!”
“That’s right! I always said that my grandson is already 24 years old and doesn’t have a girlfriend. He always uses Chi Yang as a shield. He said that Chi Yang is already 28, but he’s still single, isn’t he? He even told me that I should either wait for Chi Yang to fall in love before rushing him again or wait for him to turn 30. Hmph, this time, let’s see what other excuses that boy has!”
“Hehe, did those brats come to an agreement? My son at home is also Chi Yang as an excuse. When I go back this time, I’ll definitely make them go on blind dates!”
Nangong Nuannuan looked at Big Brother Chi Yang—who was still upright and serious in his seat—and felt a wide smile blossoming on her face in spite of herself.
Looking at his wife’s bright smile, Chi Yang’s serious face instantly softened. He could not help but scratch Nuannuan’s nose.
Nuannuan, whose nose tingled slightly from being scratched, rubbed her nose involuntarily against Chi Yang’s clothes like a fluffy pet.
It was merely a minor interaction between the two of them, but the old men next to them felt like they were being showered with dog food.
Everyone wondered how a soft and cute girl like Nuannuan could get along with Chi Yang, the tough general who shocked everyone in the military circles of Camino at such a young age.
However, when they saw the girl’s adoring gaze and the man’s gentle and doting gaze, the group of grandfathers felt like their peaceful life had come full circle even though it was just an ordinary interaction between the two.
There was only envy in caps!
“Old Marshal, the head of the Shi family, Shi Gen, has arrived.”
The lively living room lapsed into a tense silence.
Old Master Nangong, Old Master Xu, and a few other old masters from the military and political families all turned grave.
Obviously, these people did not have a good relationship with the Shi family.
“Shi Gen? Why is he here?” As Old Master Nangong’s old friend, Old Master Chi naturally knew that the conflict between the Nangong and Shi families had been steadily intensifying.
