At home, Ye Gushen, for the first time, grabbed Sui Sui excitedly to watch TV.
He was holding a fruit platter, filled with green grapes that Sui Sui loved to eat. He had gone to great lengths to tempt the little girl.
Sui Sui wanted to go upstairs to play games, but the temptation of the sparkling green grapes made her sit beside Ye Gushen involuntarily.
The TV in front of them was playing the fixed program at seven o’clock every night—the news.
As she ate, Sui Sui heard an unbelievable news broadcast: it turned out that there was really a regulation lowering the marriage age in Mo Yan Country.
The words of her grandpa popped into her mind: after the new marriage law comes out, he would take her and Ye Gushen to get registered for marriage.
Yesterday’s visit to the Ye Family was premeditated!
"I’m not eating anymore, I’m going to bed!" She stood up angrily, not forgetting to grab a handful of green grapes before walking away like a little cat.
The space next to Ye Gushen suddenly became empty, it looked like he needed to work harder!
Well then, how about taking the little woman to register tomorrow?
After all, once she became his, he would feel at ease.
The next day, Tang Suiyu tossed and turned in bed for half a day, not wanting to get up.
Because she felt that today, she might be taken to register.
But, asking herself sincerely, was she really willing?
It seemed, she wasn’t that against it...
"Ah! So frustrating!" She had just gotten out of bed when her phone started ringing like a series of urgent calls.
"Good granddaughter! Are you up?" It was Grandpa Tang’s voice.
"Grandpa, I know what you want to say, but I have classes today and no time to go and register for marriage with Uncle Ye!" She got out of bed leisurely, guessing that Ye Gushen was already awake by now.
Grandpa Tang’s rather disappointed voice came from the phone, "Oh, that’s really a pity..."
Sui Sui felt a sudden pang of softness in her heart, but the call had already ended.
When she went downstairs and saw Grandpa Tang sitting in the hall, she finally understood why the call ended so quickly!
"Grandpa!" Sui Sui wanted to cry but had no tears. Could there be anyone more eager to marry off their granddaughter?
"Good granddaughter, you’re up. After breakfast, Grandpa will take you to school. It’s been a while since I last escorted my good granddaughter to school." Grandpa Tang’s old face always carried a gentle smile.
"Oh..." Sui Sui glared at Ye Gushen. Grandpa was home and he didn’t tell her! How infuriating!
Ye Gushen remained calm despite being glared at. Grandpa Tang had arrived suddenly, and he had just welcomed him in.
On the way to school, Sui Sui chatted continuously with Grandpa Tang, almost completely ignoring Ye Gushen.
Ye Gushen, who was being ignored, kept his eyes lightly on her, his cool eyes holding a faint smile.
Sui Sui, who hadn’t been paying attention to the surroundings, finally realized when the car stopped at the gate.
As she widened her eyes, she punched Ye Gushen’s chest with her small fist, "Ye Gushen, you tricked me!"
He had no intention of forcing her, but Grandpa Tang was here—this really wasn’t his plan.
Ye Gushen held her face, staring at her puffed cheeks, "What now? We’re already here, today, you’re destined to become mine!"
"I don’t want to! Grandpa, look at him, he’s so bad!" Tang Suiyu pouted and whimpered to Grandpa Tang for help.
"Don’t blame Gu Shen, this was my idea! Hurry, get out of the car. Grandpa has booked the first slot for you two, you’ll be the first to register!" Grandpa Tang’s old face was filled with a happy smile, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes could catch mosquitoes!
