Chapter 1053: Chapter 1052: 1052: Have You Had Enough Fun?

Molly’s face underwent a drastic change the moment she saw the unopened door.

She hung her head low, so Meng Ran did not notice something was amiss at first, until he felt Molly’s hand become very cold.

The moment this elder appeared, not to mention others, even Chu Liyuan furrowed his brows slightly.

Not many people at the scene knew who the elder was, but with Chu Liyuan’s status, he naturally knew.

Chu Liyuan’s frown was not because the other party’s power was so formidable, but because this elder held a very high position in the martial world.

After the elder entered, he scanned the whole scene, and his eyes quickly found Molly in the corner with her head down; however, he did not go to her immediately but approached Chu Liyuan instead.

“Young Chu, how long has it been since we last met?” the elder asked with a smile as a greeting.

“Elder Li, since you announced your retirement, I’ve never seen you!” Chu Liyuan nodded slightly.

“It really has been quite a while then!

I’m here today to deal with family matters. If anything is not done properly, I hope you’ll be understanding!”

After Jian Dan started seeing Chu Liyuan, she had never seen him bow his head to anyone, and yet today, unexpectedly…

Who on earth could this elder be? Even Uncle showed him some deference.

Chu Liyuan nodded again, signifying it was alright.

“Lass, have you had enough fun? Isn’t it time to come home with me?” The stern and authoritative voice was penetrating, spreading throughout the entire venue.

After a long wait without a response, he spoke again, “What? Do I need to personally invite you out?”@@novelbin@@

Molly knew she could not escape, closed her eyes, took a deep breath and said, “Meng Ran, remember what you promised me, you must never let go of me!”

“Molly, why are you suddenly…” Before Meng Ran could finish his sentence, Molly tiptoed to peck Meng Ran’s cheek gently and, holding his hand, slowly walked towards the elder.

“You’ve run quite far, eh?” Elder Li’s gaze turned to the approaching Molly.

Could this elder have come for Molly? Jian Dan wondered, turning to look at Uncle but noticed that his expression had not changed at all, as if he had known all along.

“Grandpa~”

Grandpa? Then, isn’t this Elder Li… the boss of the Night Shadow Legion?

Meng Ran looked at Molly with disbelief in his eyes.

“You still know that I’m your grandpa, huh? If I hadn’t come here in person, how much longer were you planning to gallivant outside?” Elder Li had an aura that demanded respect without anger.

“Isn’t it because Grandpa forced me to!”

“What? You’re not satisfied with my arrangement?”

“Of course, I’m not satisfied, I will never marry Wang Mian. And now I already have someone I like; I can’t possibly marry him even more so!”

This cliché plot of fleeing an arranged marriage and finding true love was unfolding just like that?

“Molly, your fiancé?”

“What fiancé? I never agreed! I will absolutely never marry Wang Mian.”

“What’s wrong with Wang Mian? In terms of family background, appearance, education, he’s perfectly matched to you.”

“Wang Mian is good in all aspects, the only thing is, I don’t love him!”

“Love? That ethereal thing, it’s of no use at all!”

“Love is not some ethereal thing,” Jian Dan retorted, then realized she had spoken out.

“That’s your thought, not mine, I will never marry a man I don’t love. I love Meng Ran, and the only man I will marry is him!” Molly made her stance clear.

“You~” Elder Li was clearly getting angry now, “Young Chu, may I borrow a room?”

“Certainly, Li Jing~”

“Elder Li, please follow me…” Li Jing made a gesture of invitation.

“Come with me~” Elder Li looked at Molly… “Lass, you come too,” and then turned his gaze to Jian Dan before fixing his eyes on Meng Ran, “and you!” His attitude was clearly not good when he spoke to Meng Ran.
