Chapter 239 - Who Is That Someone? (2/2)

As soon as Yue Wan's name was mentioned, Su Yunying's polite smile stiffened and her consciousness shut out, Although she concealed her emotions in an instant, her dislike could be apparent to all.  The name rang clearly in her ears repeatedly.

The smile on Su Dingfang's face faded. He knew that Elder Xiao's attitude was hard for people to connect with him, so how did this Yue Miss become so close that she was addressed by a  nickname. 'Did my investigations miss something?'

Elder Xiao cleared his throat and gave a hard stare at Xiao Ran to mind her manners.

Su Dingfang politely smiled at Xiao Ran and asked, looking up at the stairs, ”Is the Young Master still upstairs, Princess?”

Taking the green tea offered by Advisor Yu, Xiao Ran shrugged her shoulder: ”He left the house early in the morning to meet someone.”

Recalling that someone, Xiao Ran had a hard time controlling her laugh, she used the teacup to hide it.

Su Yunying's expression did not reveal much of her emotions, but her eyes were boundlessly dark. Others might have missed Xiao Ran's smile, but she was able to catch it... 'Who is that someone?'

....

Once the Su family left the Villa, Elder Xiao knocked his granddaughter's head and reprimanded with a not so angry voice: ”Did you lose your memory of the military training?”

”Grandpa, you lost your sense of humor.”

Massaging his temples, he argued with her and asked: ”Where is that brat?”

Xiao Ran giggled and her brow curved up: ”At his queen's side. She is returning back from the Yue Military training. No wonder he quickly concluded the  3 billion dollar project so quickly. He is very calculative.”

Elder Xiao controlled his urge to curse, however, Xiao Ran's next sentence broke that barrier.

”The weird thing was, he had a suspicious file in his hand. Is it a marriage registry form?” Xiao Ran poked Elder Xiao's shoulder.

'Snap!!'

”That sneaky brat!! Can't he stay put for a day? How can I face my pal General Yue to ask him to let this rogue marry his precious granddaughter? Ahhhh! He will definitely kill me in the afterlife.”

Elder Xaio's head was clouded with dark and blue lines. 'What have I done!?'

Patting the Elder Xiao, who was sulking in chibi form, Xiao Ran gave a thumbs up: ”Good luck with that.”

----In Yue Villa----

The sky was bright without a cloud in sight.

Paramount Marauder entered the Yue Villa, where Housekeeper Huang and Uncle Wang were standing in front of the big doors with a delighted smile on their faces.

The servants of the Yue family did not believe that their precious Young Miss, who was a jewel in their eyes, would go to the army to train.
