âTell me, whatâs with this dress?â Dongfang Ke wanted to treat his old friendâs granddaughter well.
However, even though this child might have lost her family since she was young, no matter how well he treated her, he could not feel her appreciation. She was cold to everyone.
She stayed in the Dongfang family for only two years before asking to study abroad. For the next nine years, she did not return to the capital except for the new year.
Wen Ruoshui stood politely beside the old man. âItâs a friendâs coat.â
Dongfang Ke was very strict with his children and grandchildren. They had to tell him who they were dating first, afraid that they would meet someone with ulterior motives. âWhat friend?â
Wen Ruoshui said, âJust an ordinary friend.â
Dongfang Ke looked at her cold face and felt annoyed. âWhat kind of ordinary friend? He even gave you his coat?â
He had found someone to read her fortune and said that this child was destined to be alone. She jinxed her parents and family, her entire family had been jinxed to death by her.
Coupled with the fact that she did not know how to wheedle like other girls, and that she usually looked cold and unapproachable, it made him dislike her even more.
If his old friend hadnât entrusted her to him before he died, he would never have cared about such a person.
âGrandpa, donât ask.â Dongfang Chu helped to speak up. âShui Shui wonât lie. Itâs so cold outside, whatâs wrong with her friend giving her his coat?â
âWhat friend? She must have a boyfriend outside.â Dongfang Xi retorted indignantly and looked at Wen Ruoshui provocatively. âDid you have a shameful boyfriend? You donât dare to tell Grandpa because youâre afraid of embarrassing yourself! Is it a doctor in your hospital?â
Who did she think she was? Who was she putting on a dead face for?!
Wen Ruoshui did not even look at her and completely ignored her like she was a clown. âGrandpa, if I have a boyfriend, I will definitely bring him home for you to see.â
Dongfang Xi sneered and was about to continue.
Dongfang Ke glared at her and gave her a look. He coughed softly. âSince your grandfather entrusted you to me, you are my granddaughter. As the daughter of the Dongfang family, you are not allowed to date anyone.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
When she got a boyfriend, he had to be of equal status. Logically speaking, he should be the one to decide on the marriage of the daughter of the Dongfang family. However, her identity was really awkward.
The daughters of the Dongfang family had to listen to him and marry into the family. If they could not bring any benefits to the family, what was the use of him raising them?
âI will remember Grandpaâs words.â Wen Ruoshui nodded at the old man and turned to leave.
Dongfang Xi gritted her teeth in anger and clenched her fists.
Damn it, heâd just let her go? Grandpa was too biased!
This manâs coat definitely did not belong to an ordinary man. Wen Ruoshui, this little bitch, must have a man outside!
As daughters of the Dongfang family, they had no right to have a boyfriend in private.
In Grandpaâs eyes, they were just objects to be exchanged for benefits. They had to marry a man who was compatible with them and could bring benefits to the Dongfang family!
To put it simply, it was a marriage between wealthy families.
She and her boyfriend had been in an underground relationship for two years, but last time, she accidentally bumped into Wen Ruoshui.
That night, her grandfather found out about her relationship. The family punished her and forced her to break up with her boyfriend.
She knew that Wen Ruoshui, that little bitch, must have complained to her grandfather and told him about her.
Dongfang Chu gave Dongfang Xi a warning look and turned to chase after Wen Ruoshui.
âChu Chu, you stay.â Dongfang Ke stopped her and looked at Dongfang Xi. âXi Xi, go back and rest!â
Dongfang Xi left unwillingly. Before she left, she glared fiercely at Dongfang Chu. She would never let that talkative little bitch Wen Ruoshui off!
This wasnât over. She had to find out who the man she was dating was.
âGrandpa, Shui Shui isnât a girl who doesnât know her place.â Dongfang Chu thought that he was going to ask about Wen Ruoshui, so she quickly explained, âShe definitely wonât have a random boyfriend. Her life scope is limited to two things, sheâs either at home or in the hospital. How would she have the time to have a boyfriend?â
Besides, Shui Shui was more interested in medical literature, medicine, patients, and all kinds of difficult illnesses than in men.
âDonât mention her.â Dongfang Ke didnât have high expectations of Wen Ruoshui. After all, she wasnât his child. She had a cold personality and had her own ideas, she wasnât someone he could control. âLetâs talk about you. I asked your mother to arrange for you to meet that child from the Jiang family tomorrow!â
âGrandpa,â Dongfang Chu shouted angrily. She sat beside the old man and extended a hand. âI just came back for the new year and have already met so many people.â
âDidnât you look down on all of them?â Dongfang Ke doted on Dongfang Chu the most, he gave her a rare loving smile. âIf you listen to me obediently, will I harm you?â
Chu Chu was the eldest granddaughter of the Dongfang family, she was beautiful and outstanding. She was more than enough to match any rich young master in the capital, she should choose and find a future husband.
âI just met Yan Yuanfei yesterday, and you want me to meet Jiang Zhe. They are good brothers, thatâs not good!â Dongfang Chu pouted gloomily. âCan I not meet him?â
âThat child from the Yan family is very outstanding and heâs quite good-looking. However, the Yan family members died young.â At this point, Dongfang Ke sighed regretfully. âIf that wasnât the case, Grandpa would still be very satisfied with him. Itâs fine if you donât like him.â
He shouldnât have let Chu Chu go on a blind date yesterday. The men of the Yan family wouldnât live past their thirties, he didnât want his precious granddaughter to be a widow after marrying over.
âGrandpa, Iâm only 19 years old. Iâm not in a hurry to get married.â Dongfang Chu was helpless. If she had known this would happen, she wouldnât have returned to China. She hugged his arm and said coquettishly, âI still want to stay at home and be filial to Grandpa for two more years!â
âTell me the truth. Do you have someone you like?â Dongfang Ke asked her with a straight face.
In fact, he had been alert for a long time. Chu Chu had met more than 10 people. They were all young talents with prominent families and good looks, but she did not like any of them.
âNo.â When Dongfang Chu said this, she felt a little guilty. Her eyes flashed. âGrandpa, I just returned to the country. How can I have someone I like?â
Dongfang Ke said, âIf you like anyone, tell me. Iâll help you.â
âGot it.â Dongfang Chu nodded.
If it werenât for the fact that he wanted her to stay behind, she would have flown out of the country long ago.
