Chapter 67: Chapter 067 Dumb and Dumber_1
“Exactly, exactly.” Zhou Yongxian’s smile receded, and she said seriously, “Nan Fei, did Bei Jiang upset or bully you? Speak up! If that boy dares to do so, I’ll teach him a lesson.”
“Uh…” Nan Fei’s smile almost faded as she met Zhou Yongxian’s solemn gaze and hurriedly shook her head. “No! He didn’t upset me, and he didn’t bully me either.”
“Really?” Zhou Yongxian asked incredulously. “You don’t have to be scared of him. That boy has always enjoyed tormenting others, frustrates people to no end.”
“…” Granny Huo, is it really okay to say things like that about your own grandson?
“Granny Huo, let us manage our own affairs! You really don’t have to worry. I believe that both Bei Jiang and I can sort this out ourselves.” She felt almost overwhelmed by the pressure from the concerned family members.
In this life, she believed she could handle things with Bei Jiang on her own.
Zhou Yongxian sighed, “You’re right. Young people’s matters should be left for them to manage. But you don’t know how clueless and silly Bei Jiang can be. I fear he won’t find a wife if he doesn’t make an effort.”
“…” Should she tell Granny Huo, ‘Your grandson isn’t silly at all.’ How could Granny Huo believe her grandson is such a fool?
Nan Fei collected her thoughts, determining to commend Bei Jiang more, to relieve the old lady’s worries.
“Granny Huo, Bei Jiang is really nice, you can rest assured! Don’t worry, I think that as long as he wants to, he can bring back as many daughters-in-law as you wish.”
“Really?” Granny Huo’s eyes lit up, her face full of satisfaction. “I knew it, my grandson is capable. But, I just want you as my granddaughter-in-law, others don’t matter.”
Even though she knew Granny Huo was fond of her, Nan Fei still felt a sourness in her heart when she heard this. She couldn’t help grabbing Granny Huo’s wrinkled hand, unable to find the words to say.
“What’s wrong with you, girl?” Zhou Yongxian was greatly surprised.
“I’m okay.” She was just… she didn’t know what happened, all of a sudden. “Granny, don’t worry! You don’t have to worry about us anymore.”
Zhou Yongxian was thrilled to hear her call herself Granny, confirming that Nan Fei was willing to marry Bei Jiang and become her granddaughter-in-law. A simple title could explain so much!
“Yes! Granny is very happy. You have no idea how worried Bei Jiang was for you before he left! He feared that you might be angry and wanted to see you, but the army unit had already arrived, so he left due to lack of time.”
“I know.” She knew everything.
The two of them chatted for a while. As Nan Fei prepared to accompany Zhou Yongxian to look for Guan Rufang, they suddenly heard a commotion at the door. The familiar voices made their smiles freeze instantly.
It was Yuan Xueshan and Huo Jinlan.
“What are they doing here?” Zhou Yongxian asked instinctively, confused about how they found the place since she sneaked in without being noticed. How did they follow?
A flash of displeasure crossed Zhou Yongxian’s eyes. Her daughter-in-law used to be smarter than this, why did she seem more stupid now?
If Nan Fei were to find out that Jinlan isn’t Bei Jiang’s real sister, who knows what would happen then!
