"Adding to that, the young master’s personality has always been obsessive. Once he sets his sights on sothing, once he makes a decision, it never changes. I can tell that the young master doesn’t just like Miss Chi—he’s committed to her! With his kind of personality, once he’s committed, there’s no way he’ll give up easily."
He glanced at the imposing old man lying on the sickbed and continued, "I know what Old Master Jue is worried about, why you’re unwilling to approve of Miss Chi and the young master being together. I worry about the young master’s safety too, but I understand even more clearly that without Miss Chi, the young master will imdiately be in danger."
It’s not an external threat, but one caused by the inherent flaws in the young master’s personality.
If he loses Miss Chi, with the young master’s personality, there’s no telling what he might do.
A year ago, when Miss Chi had a car accident, didn’t the young master think it was orchestrated by Old Master Jue? At that ti, he barged into the villa, completely ignoring the injuries covering his body, and left behind so harsh words.
It was the first ti he had ever seen the young master go so mad for soone. So ruthless, so reckless!
So at that mont, he ca to a clear realization—the young master had already committed to Miss Chi!
Sure enough, when Old Master Jue tried to have the young master engaged to Miss Kim, it didn’t work. Once the young master confird that Miss Chi was not in Old Master Jue’s hands, he didn’t care about the consequences and directly ran away from the engagent banquet. Not even a shadow of him could be found.
How could Old Master Jue not see it? Whether they approve of Miss Chi or not doesn’t matter. What matters is that the young master has already decided!
Miss Chi herself is not lacking in rit, and the young master likes her—why not try to accept her? Maybe after spending so ti together, Old Master Jue will discover that Miss Chi is not as difficult to accept as he imagined...
"What you just said, Enen said the sa to earlier." Only, she said it in a more tactful way, and her aning was slightly different.
The point Enen wanted to make was that she wouldn’t break up with Beijue just because he disapproved, and Beijue wouldn’t give her up for the sa reason. Whether or not he approved, they would still be together.
But the point he had just made was that Beijue was already committed to Chi Enen, and disapproval would only hurt Beijue and create tension and conflict between them.
Old Master Li’s face was expressionless, his deep eyes, weathered by the passage of ti, inscrutable.
The old butler, hearing his words, felt his entire body tense up.
Good heavens.
How bold must Miss Chi be to dare say such words to Old Master Jue?
What exactly happened during that hour he wasn’t present? What kind of conversation did Miss Chi and Old Master Jue have that led to this?
He felt a sense of urgency.
Then he heard Old Master Li’s voice soften slightly as he calmly said, "The white porridge she made wasn’t bad. I’ve already had it. Tomorrow, I’ll have her make ... tomato egg noodles to try."
The old butler, lost in his own anxious thoughts, suddenly froze at the latter half of the sentence. He looked at him in disbelief. "Old Master Jue? Tomorrow you will..."
Old Master Li narrowed his eyes, eting his gaze. Without a change in expression, he let out a cold snort. "Don’t overthink this. I’m not accepting her. My stance is the sa as it’s always been—I won’t approve of her and Beijue being together. I only want to try her tomato egg noodles, that’s all!"
The old butler smiled silently.
Why Old Master Jue suddenly wanted to eat the tomato egg noodles made by Miss Chi, he didn’t know. He only knew that tomorrow, Miss Chi would have another chance to interact with Old Master Jue.
Old Master Li didn’t pay attention to his reaction and suddenly brought up, "I rember Chi Enen has a daughter, right?"
