He Lou also noticed Old Master He’s hesitation.
He stated his position directly: "Grandfather, I like her and want to marry her. No woman has ever given this feeling before."
In other words, it was love at first sight, and he wouldn’t marry anyone else but her.
Old Master He looked at the grandson who resembled him most, sighed internally, and said, "Find a ti to bring her ho. It’s a big decision to get married, and the elders should at least et her."
He Lou nodded, "Okay, I’ll settle this before returning to the troops."
As soon as he left the He family ancestral ho, his parents eagerly pulled him aside.
He Lou’s mother was an artist, doted on by He Lou’s father her entire life. Even in her forties, she remained quite romantic.
"Xiao Lou, is the girl you like pretty?" she asked her son.
Mr. He stood by helplessly.
Other elders typically asked about character and family background.
Yet this mother-in-law was only concerned with these issues.
He Lou seriously replied to her, "She’s very pretty, Mom."
Mrs. He bead at his words.
She had always loved beautiful things and naturally hoped her son would find a pleasing wife.
If soone heard this lady’s criteria for a daughter-in-law, they might genuinely be speechless.
The next morning, He Lou brought gifts to the Chong family.
Chong Minggang had heard from his daughter the previous night that her boyfriend was coming the following day.
When he heard it wasn’t Zhong Sheng, Father Chong threw a major tantrum,
but Gu Shengyin wasn’t afraid of him in the slightest.
Later, Chong Minggang still chose to stay ho.
No matter what, if soone wanted to be his daughter’s husband, he would have to pass inspection.
He feared his daughter might have poor judgnt and brought ho soone lacking in family, appearance, and character, which would be embarrassing.
But the next day, when he saw He Lou, in his trench coat carrying a gift box through the door, Father Chong thought he was hallucinating.
He had seen He Lou before.
At a charity dinner led by He Qi, where He Lou just happened to have ti and was dragged along by his brother to support.
Chong Minggang had painstakingly found connections to attend, spending millions, standing afar, watching the He family at the center of attention.
At that ti, He Lou stood emotionless by He Qi’s side.
He had seen them, but it was clear they hadn’t noticed him at all.
But now... this man, rumored to have beco a major general at a young age in the Republic, was actually her daughter’s boyfriend?
Chong Minggang felt he might not be fully awake.
But the cold expression on He Lou’s face and his daughter’s usual deanor assured him this wasn’t a dream.
His daughter had found a major general as a boyfriend, and one from the He family too!
After the brief shock, imnse joy surged up.
If her daughter was associated with the He family, Chong Minggang would beco in-laws with them.
By then, in the business world, who wouldn’t give him so respect?
All morning, Chong Minggang was beaming with joy.
While chatting with the others, he couldn’t stop his praise.
He even asked He Lou and Gu Shengyin about their future plans, almost wanting to package Gu Shengyin up and send her off imdiately.
Gu Shengyin felt embarrassed just listening.
Lunch was at the Chong family ho.
After lunch, He Lou stated his intention to leave, and Gu Shengyin used the excuse of walking him out to leave together.
