Chapter 100 - I Want to File a Harassment Lawsuit Again This Man (1/2)
----In Xiao Villa----
After Yue Siblings left the Xiao Villa, Grandfather Xiao signalled everyone to leave them alone.
He knew that his words were wrong, however, the counterparty's speech was also unladylike.
Xiao Hua stood before him with a not-so-good expression. Considering Xiao Ran, she hadn't heard the conversation between her Grandpa and Yue Xiang, so she trotted off on the heels of Advisor Yu for gossip.
Yue Wan's character remained indiscernible due to her turbulent rumors from the investigation.
When he perceived those gifts that had come for Xiao Ran were purchased from the Black Market, he ordered his personal guards to gather information about Yue Wan and found an astonishing rumor about her.
From the way she appeared in the picture that he saw from Xiao Ran's desk, he had judged that she was merely a toy with only beauty, but nothing on the inside. Who knew that she could be a King of Beasts…
When her golden eyes pierced him, a shadow of a Lion emerged from it. Those eyes were the same ones that General Yue had. At that moment, he had the impression that his pal was standing before him, alive and well.
'Slam... Slam.' A bag was slammed before Grandfather Xiao. It was the bag that Yue Wan had carried Little Bao in.
”Congrats, you messed up my plan.” Xiao Hua's strident voice shredded his Grandfather's eardrums.
”I did for your own good. Except for that girl, I can accept any other proposal of yours.”
His old and grumpy voice justified his action.
”NO! You did it for your own selfishness. Just like when you let my parents' murderer escape.” His eyes were narrowed, rigid, cold, and hard.
”Xiao Hua!” The lines on his face etched in unhappiness.
”The truth hurts. Right? For me too, especially when you concealed that thing from me.”
Xiao Hua's deepest scar was not the physical wounds he received from the plane crash, but his grandfather's illegal litigation against his parent's killer. His anger came like a fire that burned hot and fast.
”Stop spouting nonsense! Just because I didn't accept that girl, you have no right to act this way. You shouldn't have even come to City A in the first place.” Grandfather Xiao didn't dare to look at his grandson's face, there was an untold pain in his eyes.
”Yue Wan.” Xiao Hua's cold voice dropped dangerously.
Pulling brows together in a frown, Grandfather Xiao witnessed his once fragile grandson transformed into a cold-hearted person.
”Wh__What?” His old voice shuddered.
Xiao Hua already removed his face mask, so his purple eyes lashed with indignance and anger, much like lightning did on a pitch-black night.
”Her name is Yue Wan, ” he chanted.
Grandfather Xiao wrinkled his nose in bafflement. When he saw the attitude of Yue Wan in person, his heart pulsated with a dėsɨrė: 'What if she became my grand-daughter in law?'
But his mind prodded over those rumors against her. 'He couldn't let anyone tarnish the Xiao name.'
Taking in a lungful of oxygen, Grandfather Xiao weighed the pro and cons while rapping his cane twice on the ground.
”After much deliberation, I have made my decision. She is unfit to be a Xiao.”
Before he reached half of the distance, Xiao Hua clapped his hand to get his attention.
”Maybe you don't understand the power of my Love yet.”
