Chapter 659: Loving Looks
When the credit song of the drama was over, Huo Xiao glared at him unhappily. He frowned and said in disdain, “Why are you still here?”
He felt annoyed just by looking at him. Hurry up and get lost. Are you waiting to be scolded? Have you not been beaten up?
Jun Shiyan only knew that Huo Ci had a bad temper. When Huo Xiao had seen him in the past, his att.i.tude had been pretty good. However, he had not known that he had been eyeing his beloved granddaughter back then. Indeed, someone else’s beloved fruit was not easy to pick. “Old Master Huo, I’ll take my leave now. I’ll visit you another day.”
Huo Xiao did not speak. Scolding him would make him seem too petty. He should not scold him, but he was angry. That sc.u.mbag had deceived his granddaughter while he was not paying attention. How could he still put on a smiling face and speak to him nicely? No way. Dream on!
“Grandpa, I’ll go see him off.” Ling Sheng stood up hurriedly to run.
“Stop right there.” When he saw how much his granddaughter cared about that brat, Huo Xiao’s heart ached. He felt terrible. He pointed his walking stick at Jun Shiyan and gritted his teeth. “He’s already an adult. Can he get lost or kidnapped?”
“Old Master Huo is right.” Jun Shiyan smiled humbly and looked at Ling Sheng. In a gentle voice, he said, “Sheng Sheng, it’s cold outside. Don’t go out. Rest well.”
Upon seeing the loving look in their eyes, Huo Xiao became even angrier. He felt as though he was about to faint. He said angrily, “Why aren’t you leaving? Do you want me to send you off personally?”
Jun Shiyan’s smile did not falter. “I won’t trouble you, Old Master Huo. I’ll leave now.”
Ling Sheng stood there reluctantly as she watched him leave. Her heart was full of grat.i.tude. She had definitely picked a catch. In real life, movies, and novels, this was the first time she had seen a good man like the Third Master.
While facing her family, he had treated them with absolute respect. He had not endured this and pretended because he wanted to marry her and gain the approval of her family. He really wanted her family to acknowledge him from the bottom of his heart and hand her over to him without worrying.
In real life, even an ordinary man would want to save face. If he was put on the spot by a woman’s parents, an ordinary man would get very angry and feel insulted.
However, the beloved daughter that the family had painstakingly raised had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away by him. Her parents would not feel comfortable either. It would actually be quite normal for them to not have a good att.i.tude.
This was especially true for her family. Her father and grandfather had always had a strong opinion about the Third Master. She deeply felt that the Third Master’s future was still very long.
“Do you really like him that much?” Huo Xiao looked at his obedient grandchild’s disappointed face and suppressed his anger as he asked her this question.
Ling Sheng nodded and ran over to sit beside him. “Grandpa, the Third Master is so nice. Look at him. He’s not missing an arm or a leg, nor is he disfigured. As for… the thing that you are most disproving of, it doesn’t exist.”
“How do you know? Was he dishonest with you?” Huo Xiao understood immediately. His face darkened instantly, and he gritted his teeth so hard, eager to fight to the death with someone!
“No, no, no!” Ling Sheng denied it thrice. She shook her head vigorously, her face red. “Grandpa, that’s impossible. It’s definitely impossible before I get married. The Third Master is not that kind of person. He respects me a lot.”
Huo Xiao asked, “Really?”
Ling Sheng raised her hand and swore seriously. “Yes, I swear on my integrity.”
