Chapter 12-13 (1/2)

In the study room of the Hao Mansion, two alpha men faced off with each other.

'Mr Yuan, I believe you're curious what your daughter is doing in a mansion near a forest,' Hao Yan Que said.

'Yes,' Yuan Ting Liu said.

'I don't know who you offended for them to kidnap your daughter and abandon her in the middle of a forest,' Hao Yan Que said. 'Your daughter is alive because my wife saved her.'

Han Yan Que drank a sip of coffee, and glanced at Qiu Li Luo's anxious face.

'Thank you for saving my daughter's life,' Yuan Ting Liu said. 'Tell me what you two want in return. If it's something I can give, I won't withhold it from you two.'

'It's good we're straight forward like each other,' Hao Yan Que said. 'My wife and I only have one request. We want Gun Gun to marry our oldest son.'

'What?' Yuan Ting Liu asked.

'Mr Yuan, my husband and I truly love Gun Gun,' Qiu Li Luo said. 'All we want is you to give your blessing for Gun Gun to be our daughter-in-law for saving her life. We promise we'll be good in-laws to Gun Gun.'

'I can't decide Gun Gun's fate,' Yuan Ting Liu said. 'What if your oldest son doesn't love Gun Gun? It's not enough if you and your husband love Gun Gun. I don't want Gun Gun to be unhappy in the future.'

Hao Yan Que saw disappointment in Qiu Li Luo's violet eyes.

'Mr Yuan, how do you want to repay my wife for saving your daughter's life?' Hao Yan Que asked.

'When Gun Gun is eighteen, I'll let her come here to be your oldest son's maid for three years,' Yuan Ting Liu said. 'If your oldest son and Gun Gun love each other then I'll give my blessing for your oldest son to marry Gun Gun. If your oldest son rejects Gun Gun then Gun Gun can return to her family, because taking care of your oldest son for three years is enough to repay your wife for saving her life.'

'Why does Gun Gun need to be my oldest son's maid?' Qiu Li Luo asked.

'It's a good cover for Gun Gun to live here and spend time with your oldest son,' Yuan Ting Liu said.

Qiu Li Luo nodded her head at Hao Yan Que.

'It's settled,' Hao Yan Que said. 'In thirteen years, I'll ask someone to escort Gun Gun here.'

'It's a promise,' Yuan Ting Liu said. 'Since there is a chance your oldest son will be my son-in-law, can you tell me his name?'

'Hao Yan Che,' Hao Yan Que said.

Yuan Ting Liu heard the twelve-year-old Hao Yan Che was CEO of Hao Yan's company.

'Can you tell me if there is a rift between you and your oldest son?' Yuan Ting Liu asked.

'Mr Yuan, why do you think there is a rift?' Qiu Li Luo asked.
