Chapter 306: Third Young Master Ye Is Enraged: She Defeats You
Elder Leng was extremely confident that he could win the game prior to this. He thought the marriage arrangement between their families would be a certain success. Little Wuyou even mentioned that she would not mind getting married the day after if she lost. He was going to win the game and make those two young ones visit the Ministry of Civil Affairs first thing tomorrow.
Just in case!!!
Unexpectedly, he lost!!!
However, the little girl did mention that young people should be given the option to make decisions freely. It was up to Leng Rong now to step up his game so he could marry the girl and make her a part of the Leng family.
If that happened, it would not only be Leng Rong’s good fortune but also beneficial to the Leng family.
It was all up to Leng Rong to change the fate now.
“I conceded defeat from the bottom of my heart. This is definitely a first in my entire lifetime.” Elder Leng was never one to accept failure but he did so genuinely this time.
“It doesn’t matter who wins. The process is more valuable than the result.” Chu Wuyou figured she should try comforting the defeated party at a time like this.
“You talk as if it was just a walkover. Of course it matters. I was planning for you and Leng Rong to acquire your marriage certificates right away tomorrow if I win. There’s no point in talking about that now.” Elder Leng could not help but become upset at the thought of this. It finally occurred to him that he had been fooled by the little girl. He would not have agreed to the bet if he knew better.
If he had not taken on the bet, he would force a date for their marriage today no matter what.
This caught Chu Wuyou by utter shock. She had no idea that Elder Leng was planning to do so. It was really fortunate that she had won the game.
“Little girl, my grandson Leng Rong is not that bad, to be fair. Take your time to reconsider. Besides, it’s completely democratic over in the Leng Residence. You wouldn’t be bullied if you were to marry into our family.” Elder Leng was trying his best to save the disaster.
“Really? I think Madam Leng is a little afraid of you.” Chu Wuyou pouted to express her disagreement. She thought Elder Leng was quite fun to chat with, so she began to speak more casually.
“She’s only afraid of me because she has a weak personality, not because the Leng family bullies her. Will you be afraid of me if you get married into the Leng family?” Elder Leng frowned a little though he did not reveal too much emotion.
The woman found no words to argue back because she was not afraid of Elder Leng indeed. He was an easy-going man beneath the stern pretense.
“Grandpa Leng, I need to take my leave soon to deal with some personal matters. I probably can’t join you for dinner.” She thought of seizing the opportunity to spend some time with her two darlings.
It was already getting late. Her darlings might be going to bed soon if this was delayed more.
“You’re such a petty girl.” The old man glared at her to express his displeasure. However, he could tell that she was indeed in a hurry thus he did not want to force her either.
“Sure, you can take your leave now, but you have to play Chinese chess with me once more. You can pick the time. You’re busier than this old man who has lots of free time to spare.” Elder Leng had really taken a liking to Chu Wuyou. He wished to see the girl again as well as to create more opportunities for his grandson.
“Sure.” She could not bring herself to reject the old man’s demand.
“Grandpa, what’s going on?” Leng Rong had been waiting impatiently on the other side of the door. He quickly stepped forward upon seeing the two people leaving from the study. His eyes were filled with great expectations.
“Come on, let’s go home now.” Elder Leng threw him a glance and shook his head gently.
“Huh? Go home? What’s going on?” Leng Rong was astonished. His grandpa came with an “overbearing manner” but why did he decide to go home after playing Chinese chess?
