Chapter 89 - Romantic rival out of thin air (2/2)
Well, at least that was true. She did not have to worry about him pestering her in the company. ”However, if you decide not to come, will I be allowed to go after you?” he laughed, making it sound like a joke.
Wan Jia saw Lu Aotian approaching at terrific speed from the corner of her eye. This man before her was courting death! ”I'm sorry but no. As my fiancé previously mentioned, I'm engaged. It wouldn't be so nice to try and interfere with a solid relationship, don't you think?”
Her fiancé, solid relationship...
Lu Aotian smiled.
The man scowled.
He did not believe that he had completely lost. After all, although he could not compare to a pinky finger of Lu Aotian's in terms of wealth and influence, he was also handsome in his own way-even though Lu Aotian was at least ten times more handsome than him.
”If fate has it, may we meet again, beautiful.” he said as he cowered in fear when Lu Aotian held Wan Jia from behind and glared at him.
”Let's go home.” he said. This was one of the worst banquets of his life. Not only had he not managed to make her less attractive, he had gained a romantic rival out of thin air.
”Okay.” she was also getting tired of these pestering men. ”Let's say goodbye to Elder Qian.” They had already previously given their presents.
”Grandfather Qian, we have to deal with some matters later so we should leave now.” she said sweetly.
”Oh, good child. Remember to pay this old man a visit.” he said. He had made Wan Jia promise to visit him. ”Don't let this rascal stop you. If he doesn't want to come, just ignore him.”
Lu Aotian instantly erupted in jealousy. ”Why is it that you have never told me to call you 'grandfather' and only told Wanwan? Who is it that plays chess with you? Humph!”
”You rascal. Just say you're jealous that your fiancée looks up to me.” he laughed.
Wan Jia recalled something. ”Now that you mention it, Grandfather Qian, I agree to be your disciple.”
The old man was elated. ”Little girl, you made the right choice. This old man will definitely hand down all my knowledge to you.”
After years of searching, he had finally found someone worthy of his knowledge. He could now spend the rest of his life in peace.

On the other hand, Yun Xuan was also being urged by her mother to leave.
”Mom, have you even said hi to Elder Qian?”
”I already did. I'm tired. Are we going home or do you prefer to stay and come on your own?” she asked impatiently.
”Fine, fine. We're going.” she sulked. Her mother was acting a little strange today, especially near Wan Jia.
