Qin Lu calmly accepted this compliment, his face showing no signs of blushing or a racing heart.
He didn’t mention that the little girl had the ability to handle everything herself.
It was rare to gain approval from the elders, and it would make things easier for him when he eventually married Nan Yan.
Old Master Fu was beginning to accept Qin Lu and felt that he was barely suitable for their Yanyan.
Old Master An held Nan Yan’s hand and looked at her with a hint of concern. “Have you been mistreated?”
“You’ve lost weight. I’ll have the kitchen prepare some nourishing dishes for you!” He continued, his eyes filled with concern.
Nan Yan smiled and replied, “That must be a mistake. I’ve actually gained a couple of pounds and haven’t lost any weight at all.”
Old Master An stared, “I say you’ve lost weight, so you’ve lost weight! You’ll need to eat well!”
“Alright, I’ll listen to vou.”
Nan Yan obediently agreed and added, “But I have to return to the capital with my brother tomorrow. There are some things I need to take care of. I’ll come back to eat well after I’m done.
She didn’t mention her trip to Shennongjia. She wouldn’t reveal anything about her master without his permission.
“You’re leaving again?” Old Master Fu, hearing that she was leaving once more, immediately became upset. “Yanyan, you promised that you would go to the Supreme Tower with me!”
“Grandpa, I originally wanted to come and tell you in person. I can’t go this time, but I promise I’ll accompany you next time.”
Old Master Fu looked displeased, his face stiff, and turned to leave.
Nan Yan grabbed his arm and said helplessly, “Grandpa, there’s really something urgent, it’s not that I don’t want to accompany you.”
Old Master Fu grumbled, “But you promised me.”
She didn’t know that there would be a sudden change that would disrupt her plans.
She was in the wrong and could only patiently coax him, saying, “How about next time?”
Old Master An spoke up, “Old Master Fu, that’s enough. Yanyan didn’t stand you up on purpose. Besides, it’s just an art festival, whether she goes or not doesn’t matter.”
Having said all of this, he still felt it wasn’t sufficient and added, “Yanyan’s future goals are in scientific research, and she’s going to study medicine. She doesn’t have time to dedicate to any artistic pursuits with you.”
Old Master Fu sighed,
This troublesome reality!
Well…
His granddaughter had her own pursuits, and he should be more supportive, especially since she was going to become a scientist and contribute to the country’s research.
After sighing deeply, Grandpa Lu said, “You mustn’t stand up Grandpa again next time.”
“Alright.’
In the evening, Nan Yan and Qin Lu had dinner at the old house. After dinner, they went out again.
It wasn’t until the early hours of the morning that Qin Lu brought Nan Yan back.
Qin Lu gently stroked her fluffy head. “Rest early. I’ll come to pick you up at six tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Nan Yan nodded. “Take your time on the way.”
Qin Lu watched Nan Yan return to the old house before he leisurely got back into the car.
He adjusted his tie, loosening it slightly, and then leaned back in his seat with
a dominant and imposing posture.
From the rearview mirror, Wu Yue saw Qin Lu in this commanding position and felt a bit apprehensive.. “Young Master, are we going back to the hotel?”
