Chapter 109: Verification
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jian Dan lost miserably in Monopoly; out of the three players, she incurred the worst loss. Chu Liyuan did not have much of a reaction, but Grandpa was laughing very happily…
“It’s not easy! When have I ever won against Little Jian in chess?! I lost every round! This time, finally… Little Jian lost!”
That’s right! How could she lose? Jian Dan had never lost a chess game before.
What Jian Dan did not know was that Chu Zhiyuan and Chu Liyuan had formed an alliance very early on. As the saying went, alliance of the strong… However, how could Jian Dan understand the twists and turns in the corporate world?!
However… winning or losing didn’t seem to be that important! What was important was the family being together!
“It’s getting late. Let’s go back.”
Chu Liyuan said after the game ended.
“Since it’s getting late, you might as well stay here today.”
Grandpa said after hearing Chu Liyuan’s words.
Jian Dan turned to look at Chu Liyuan. She felt that he was about to say something when… “It’s decided!”
Grandpa did not give Chu Liyuan a chance to refuse.
Jian Dan did not mind, because she and Grandpa bonded very well in terms of personalities and preferences!
“Okay.”
Since Grandpa had already said it, Jian Dan could not reject him.
At night… Grandpa made the two of them return to their room early…
This subtle action made Chu Liyuan understand the reason why Grandpa asked the two of them to spend the night.
It seemed that this old man was really dying for his great-grandson; he was going to supervise them!
After a while, a figure secretly went to their room and hovered outside the door. He slowly squatted down and pressed his ear against the door…
The two of them had been married for a few months. How could there be no news at all? Were the rumors true—was there really something wrong with his grandson?
Chu Zhiyuan had never believed those rumors. But recently, he had wavered. Hence, he had to verify it tonight…
Unexpectedly, just as he had his ear on the door… “Oh!”
The door suddenly opened. Chu Zhiyuan lost his balance and fell into the room.
When he looked up, he saw his grandson’s knowing expression and the dumbfounded Jian Dan.
“Grandpa, what are you doing here?” Jian Dan was baffled.
The two of them had caught glimpses of movements at the door of the room. She did not expect it to be Grandpa.
“Haha! Haha!”
Seeing Grandpa laugh awkwardly, Chu Liyuan looked at him sympathetically…
Let’s see how you explain this to Jian Jian.
“I… dropped something. I’m looking for it! Haha.”
Chu Zhiyuan tried his best to look normal.
“Dropped something? What is it? Is it very important? Let’s help Grandpa look for it!”
Only Jian Dan would believe it.
Chu Zhiyuan could also tell that his motive had probably been seen through by Liyuan—this brat—who acted like it had nothing to do with him.
The two of them kept communicating with their eyes…
Are you just going to watch??
What can 1 do?
Think of something!
I got nothing. Deal with it yourself! Please begin your performance.
“What are you two doing?”
No matter how slow Jian Dan was, the two of them had been looking at each other for so long that she could sense that something was wrong.
Fine! You don’t want to help, right? No problem. At most, 1’11 just lay it out and see who’s the one to be embarrassed in the end.
“Erm, Little Jian, there’s something 1 want to ask you. About Liyuan’s…”
Chu Liyuan immediately saw through Grandpa’s intentions and pulled him aside as he whispered, “If you keep standing here, the thing you’re thinking about will definitely not happen.”
“No problem. I’m gone!”
As long as he could get his great-grandson posthaste, he would do anything!
“Didn’t Grandpa have something to ask me? Why did he leave?”
Jian Dan asked as she looked at Chu Liyuan; she was getting increasingly puzzled.
“It’s nothing. I’ve already answered him… Let’s go!”
He swept Jian Dan up in his arms… and closed the door with his leg…
Grandpa was not the only one who was anxious. Chu Liyuan was also looking forward to it..
