Dong Huiying is a sensible person. As early as this evening, when Elder Sun took the initiative to talk to her and opened the secret compartnt to hand over that book, she already knew that this Elder Sun was a wonderful person.
And the fire over at the Seventh Princess’s place tonight is surely related to this old man.
This person is quite intelligent, which ans he’s emotionally intelligent.
Dong Huiying guessed that Elder Sun must have a request for her, but he didn’t directly say it. Instead, he was kind to her through two events in succession. This way, as long as she wasn’t ungrateful, when he proposed his intention, she would surely find it hard to refuse.
Indeed, ginger is spicier when it’s old?
Elder Sun also smiled. As he looked at the table, he already knew that Lady Xiao Dong must have seen through his intentions.
The best thing about dealing with smart people is that so matters are clear at a glance, and they can avoid many awkwardnesses and unnecessary words between each other.
Shu Yu sat beside him. His alcohol tolerance wasn’t very good. Even if he drank, he could only have so low-proof sake. Sitting here now, he seed more like he was guarding his young wife.
Even though Elder Sun was an old man, however, however... It’s not the thieves you fear stealing; it’s those eyeing you that you fear. How wonderful is his wife?
What if soone really had designs on her?
In any case, he sat firmly like a mountain, didn’t speak, and occasionally shot secretive glances at Elder Sun.
Elder Sun: "..."
After a few rounds of drinks, Elder Sun coughed into his hand. He was quite helpless inside, and it seed he really couldn’t take Shu Yu.
"Young friend, to be honest, I already have a wife. For most of my life, it was her before, it is her now, and it will be her in the future. I only intend to be buried in the sa grave with her in this life." The implication was, the old man was not that kind of shaless person, and was genuinely not interested in your young mistress.
Shu Yu snorted, "People can change. My wife is too beautiful and excellent, and I’m quite troubled."
"No, it’s impossible for to change."
"But can’t stand my wife being both beautiful and excellent."
"I never take a second glance at other won."
"My wife is beautiful and charming. You’ve already looked at her! And not just once!!"
Elder Sun: "..."
Alright, he lost. It’s simply impossible to have a pleasant conversation with this protective young brat.
"Pfft..." Dong Huiying couldn’t help but chuckle: "Seems like I’m untrustworthy? My Shu Yu is quite uneasy about ."
"Untrustworthy?" Shu Yu looked at her a bit puzzled, not understanding what she ant by "untrustworthy," but he thought for a mont and roughly got it. "No, wife isn’t untrustworthy. My Hui Ying is the best, but can’t stand always having people eyeing her, always having people wanting my Hui Ying to beco untrustworthy."
Dong Huiying: "..."
Second Master, you’re drunk, right!!
In any case, apart from Shu Yu being like a childish, wary little kid constantly guarding against "outsiders," afraid that "outsiders" would eye his wife, everything was quite good. All things considered, host and guests were quite happy.
However, during the banquet, Elder Sun didn’t ntion his request, and Dong Huiying didn’t ask.
After they were full of food and drink, Elder Sun left a small pouch behind: "This will be my greeting gift to the young friend."
Dong Huiying raised her brow, then smiled: "Thank you, Elder Sun. Tomorrow, Huiying will visit with family, and hope Elder won’t mind."
She and Shu Yu escorted Elder Sun to the door, but Yi Ran and Uncle Jiang stayed behind. After they sent Elder Sun off, they saw Yi Ran’s eyes shining brightly.
