The topic ended here. Old Master Qin asked Ye Jian many things. He was even more amiable and kind than when he was in the Xia family's ho.
The more he talked to Ye Jian, the more Old Master Qin liked Ye Jian, who had her own opinions and relied on her own ability to climb up the ranks. On the way back to the Qin family's ho, Old Master Qin said, "She was snatched away by Old Xia. He has such a good granddaughter-in-law. Alas, your Grandpa Fu and I have been good friends for many years. Why didn't I help you with this matter?
If I knew that there was such a good lady, I would have given up my face to matchmake you two!"
"Hey, hey, hey. Don't think about it anymore. If you continue thinking about it, your angina problem will co back."
It wasn't far from the Fu family's ho to the Qin family's ho. After passing through a small path and walking up for about five minutes, they would reach their ho. Qin Xiu was so afraid of an accident happening that he held Old Master Qin tightly. When he heard the topic that made him uncomfortable, Qin Xiu smiled and sighed.
"If it wasn't for the help of Grandpa Xia's grandson, Xia Jinyuan, Grandpa Fu might not have been able to find his granddaughter. This is their fate. You can't snatch her just because you want to."
Xia Jinyuan had helped Ye Jian a lot. As a fellow man, Qin Xiu might not be able to do what he did.
Hence, Ye Jian couldn't be snatched just like that.
Xia Jinyuan had pursued Ye Jian with all his heart. He was sincere and open-minded. This made Qin Xiu, who had once confessed to Ye Jian, feel a deep… sense of guilt.
Although he didn't regret confessing, if he had the chance to do it again, he would definitely be more cautious. Or rather, he would only watch silently and not step out at all.
"Besides, Ye Jian and I really don't have feelings for each other. If we did, with my uncle around, I would've gained an advantage. Hence, you can't ntion it again in the future. Ye Jian is the granddaughter-in-law of Grandpa Xia's family. If you ntion it too much, she'll be very embarrassed."
Old Master Qin walked slowly step by step. When he heard his grandson's reminder, he glared at him. "Am I soone who doesn't know what's important? Do I need you to remind ?
"Also, do you really not have any feelings for Jian? Why do I feel that you freeze up when you're in front of her?"
The old man had seen countless people. He still had this intuition.
Qin Xiu nodded and replied calmly, "Look, you're thinking too much again. It's not that I can't control myself, but I know her, but she didn't tell about her family matters. She even looked a little uncomfortable. Why should I make things awkward for both of us?"
That was true. They were both acquaintances. In the end, he suddenly discovered a private matter that she wanted to hide. Indeed, the two of them would be a little uncomfortable.
Old Master Qin, who had been successfully deceived, didn't know that his grandson had confessed to the lady he was very satisfied with. When he saw the entrance of his house, Old Master Qin suddenly rembered why Qin Xiu ca over today.
His face couldn't help but turn cold. "If you find a girlfriend like Jian, I'll stand on your side no matter who her family is!"
"Every day, you tell that the woman I find needs a good family background and a good character. But you're so fickle that you tell different things each ti. It's really…"
Old Master Qin couldn't be too direct with matters regarding his future daughter-in-law. He swallowed the words in his mouth and changed his words. "You can make your own decisions. Don't listen to the adults for everything. I believe in your taste.
"Now, I really want to snatch Jian back for you. However, thinking about it, you won't be able to get her. Forget it."
