Chapter 3 Need To Find A Rich Man (2/2)

However, Andrew Chu was still a bit bothered by one issue.

”Derek Lu.” Andrew Chu slowly opened his mouth. His voice was serious and solemn.

”Yes, sir.” Derek Lu quickly responded.

”In all the time Jackson Chu has been in the army, did he ever bother to go on the blind dates I set up for him?” Andrew Chu's face was serious as he asked the question.

”Well...” Derek Lu didn't know how to reply. The truth was, he had gone on the blind dates in place of Jackson Chu. Jackson Chu had begged him so much, that he eventually caved in and went on the dates. However, at this moment, he did not dare tell Andrew Chu the truth. He was concerned Jackson would get angry.

”What's wrong?” Andrew Chu's face turned darker.

Jackson Chu had to step in and reply on behalf of Derek Lu, ”Grandpa, I did go on the blind dates, as per your instructions. There were eight blind dates, and I went for three of those. However, none of the girls I met captured my heart.”

Jackson Chu replied with a poker face. He was just bluffing. He hadn't gone on any of these blind dates. He only said so to dodge the bullet. Otherwise, Derek Lu would be punished by his grandfather if the truth came out. And under no circumstances would he ever let his buddy get punished for helping him out.

”None of them? The girls I selected for you are from the wealthy and powerful families of our city. They are well-educated noble ladies. Are you telling me that you didn't like any of them?” Andrew Chu was angry at his grandson by now. He was so picky!

Jackson Chu remained silent.

Derek Lu looked away as he also did not know what to say at the moment. He glanced at Jackson Chu and noticed that he looked calm. That gave him some relief as he saw Jackson Chu had the situation under control.

Andrew Chu thought for a while and then he solemnly said, ”Starting from tomorrow, Jackson Chu should have blind dates one after another. Until he shows me his wedding certificate, he shall continue going on blind dates.”

This random order did not scare Jackson Chu at all. His was mulling over last night, over the girl he had run into and spent a wonderful time with. A smile spread across his handsome face as he thought about her.

Derek Lu tried very hard not to burst into laughter in front of Andrew Chu, who was so serious. Going on blind dates one after another? What a cruel order! Was Andrew Chu trying to drive his beloved grandson mad? Jackson Chu was known for his indifferent character. He would be the laughing stock of the whole army if the news of him going on numerous blind dates spread.

Jackson Chu gave Derek Lu a serious look and warned him to behave himself. Derek Lu quickly covered his mouth and stood up straight. However, he was still dying inside from laughter.

Andrew Chu waved his hands in despair and said to them, ”Get out then. Remember what I said and go for the blind dates. If you dare to disobey my order, I will make sure you pay the price.”

Jackson Chu walked out briskly. He had paid absolutely no attention to what his grandfather had just said. He was still engrossed by the girl from last night.

As they walked inside the residential area, Jackson Chu abruptly stopped and Derek Lu almost ran into him.

Derek Lu touched his nose and asked, ”What's wrong?”

Jackson Chu turned around and slowly said, ”Find the identity of the woman from last night at the hotel.”

Without further delay, he strode forward, leaving Derek Lu stunned and rooted in place.

”Well, that is easier said than done...” Derek Lu looked towards Jackson Chu's receding figure, confused, and wondered whether Jackson Chu had already fallen for the woman.
