746 A Pretty Figure in the Darkness (1/2)

As Fu Qinglun turned around, Grandma walked in.

Grandma had been residing at Castle Guding for more than ten years, and she was still a hale and hearty woman even in her old age. Although her hair had gone completely white, her face was filled with tenderness and love, which made her very likable.

Fu Qinglun walked ahead and extended his hand to support his Grandma. ”Grandma, why are you here?”

Grandma sat on the sofa and pulled Fu Qinglun's hand lovingly. She could not get enough of this grandson of hers.

”Grandson, why did you take so long to take a call? Do you fancy the ladies downstairs?”

The Young Master of Castle Guding, who was already 30 years old, was not married yet and there were many ladies who coveted him. Grandma had organized a party and invited all kinds of ladies, but her grandson had shown scant interest in them.

He said that he was going to take a call, but he was gone for a very long time.

Fu Qinglun knelt in front of Grandma on one knee and held her hands. He smiled and said in a low voice, ”Grandma, I don't fancy them.”

Grandma promptly nodded her head, and as she was nodding, she observed Fu Qinglun's countenance carefully. ”Yes, I feel they are not suitable for my beloved grandson as well. It's alright, there are still many other good ladies out there. Grandma will pick for you again.”

”Grandma…”

Fearing that he would object, Grandma swiftly revealed a dejected expression. ”Grandson, it's not that Grandma wants to rush you into marriage, but you are no longer young, and you don't even have a woman by your side. This is not normal.”

As Grandma spoke, she nearly teared up. ”Grandma does not have much time left. I only wish that I can see my great-grandchild before I pass on. Grandson, can't you fulfill Grandma's wish?”

”…”

Faced with such a dramatic Grandma, Fu Qinglun was at a loss for words.

Seeing that the man had softened in his attitude, Grandma pulled Fu Qinglun's hand and exited the room. ”Let's go downstairs. Families with daughters have their doors trodden on by potential suitors. Our grandson cannot help but set hearts aflutter everywhere.”

Fu Qinglun, ”…”

…

The party was held at the castle. Many ladies from prestigious and influential families entered with an invitation card, and there were countless others who did not even have the opportunity to attend.

Even though Grandma had ended the party, the ladies were still sneaking peeks at Fu Qinglun and commenting on how handsome he was.

Fu Qinglun's handsome and refined face remained impassive. At this moment, he heard the mewing of a little cat.

Fu Qinglun looked down and saw a fat little cat nuzzling at his feet.

”Where did this cat come from?” At this moment, the butler of the Castle discovered the cat. ”Men, bring this cat out. Don't let it dirty Young Master's shoes.”

Fu Qinglun glanced at the butler. ”No need.”

Mew.

The little cat gazed at Fu Qinglun and mewed again.

Fu Qinglun stuck one hand into his trousers pocket and looked at the cat at his feet. It was a domestic cat, as it was wearing a pink lacy outfit, and there was even a pink bow on its head. It was most probably dressed by its owner.

It looked ridiculously cute.

Fu Qinglun curved his lips nonchalantly. The owner of this cat was clearly a young girl at heart.

”Where's your owner?”

Mew.

The little cat mewed.

Fu Qinglun's handsome features softened a little. ”Have you lost your way?”

Mew.

The little cat mewed again.

At this moment, he heard a soft and sweet voice. ”Uncle, this is my Flower.”

Upon hearing this voice, Fu Qinglun promptly turned around and saw a little girl standing outside the castle.
