Chapter 824
Li Yu threw her a line, “Don’t know, but, how will we know if we don’t try?”
Ye Xingguang: “…”
Ye Xingguang glared, “Brother Yu, are you messing with me? I think it all depends on you. You go tell old man Chen straight up that you’re just not into me, that you don’t want to be the vampire heir, and you must display an unyielding spirit even in the face of death!”
“Okay,” Li Yu agreed, crisp and clear.
That’s why I like a good childhood friend who’s willing to agree to anything!
Side by side, the two of them walked toward Shuixin Pavilion. As Li Yu stepped into Shuixin Pavilion, a disdainful voice began, “Old Chen, I’ve brought the girl you wanted back, but never in a million years did I expect her to be my sister. What do we do now? I only see her as a sister. Knowing she has someone in her heart, I definitely can’t break them up. As for this vampire heir, better let her beloved take the role. Forgive me, but I refuse to accept!”
Exactly, that’s what to say, Ye Xingguang applauded Li Yu in her heart.
“You little punk, what kind of nonsense is that? Are you saying it’s beneath you to be my heir?” The white-haired old man fishing slowly turned around, faced them with a stern look.
With features so refined they differed as much from a grumpy old man’s as could be, delicate skin coupled with a wrinkle-free face—if not for the white hair, he would not seem a day over thirty. Most captivating were those stunning black eyes, as if coming straight from a manga’s handsome protagonist, the angles reaching into his temples like stars, uh…
Ye Xingguang, about to call out to Old Chen, was struck dumb by the sight of that soul-stirring handsome man with white hair, her voice stuck in her throat. Was this really the vampire heir, that filthy rich grumpy old man?
This… was a completely different image from the grumpy old man she had in her head!
“Uh… this white hair, you’re sure it’s not dyed at a hairdresser’s?”
Ye Xingguang didn’t realize she had voiced her inner thoughts aloud.
“Little Jiushu, how did you know I got this white hair dyed at a hairdresser’s?” Chen Fengdu tossed aside his fishing rod, stood up, and scrutinized Ye Xingguang, “Indeed, a girl changes so much as she grows. Much better looking than the little pole you were ten years ago!”
Ye Xingguang gaped in surprise, “It’s really dyed? Brother Yu, you’re sure he’s the vampire clan’s old boss? He doesn’t feel like it to me! You’re not messing with me, right?”
But still, Ye Xingguang was polite and knew how to address people, “Hello Mr. Chen, hello Mrs. Chen.”noveldrama
“Cough, cough, I’m not his Mrs.,” the young girl by Chen Fengdu’s side said, slightly embarrassed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Fengdu laughed heartily, “How could you not be? Sooner or later you will be my Mrs. But little Jiushu, as my future daughter-in-law, you got it wrong. You should call me father-in-law, mother-in-law!”
Ye Xingguang’s forehead creased with black lines as she replied, “Mr. Chen, you really have a knack for joking. You’re not my man’s dad. How could I call you father-in-law?”
“Your man is not my son?”
“Is he?”
Chen Fengdu, pulling along his darling baby, took a seat in the center chair of Shuixin Pavilion, settling down leisurely with a smile that was barely there, “Everyone who I’ve embraced directly is my son, and this young man is one of my sons. You two are getting married soon. Tell me, aren’t you my daughter-in-law?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yu, not giving face, declared, “I repeat, I will not marry my own sister. A rabbit doesn’t eat the grass by its burrow. My coming here today is to make it clear that I will no longer be the heir, but I can recommend someone to you, Ye Junqing.”
