The reason why he agreed not to take her away was because there were many uncertainties abroad and a lot of things he had to deal with. He might not be able to protect her every moment.
"Hmm? Oh, okay."
Tong Huaer was stunned for a few seconds before she realized what Zong Beili meant and nodded with a smile.
In fact, she no longer had feelings for the clan, and if they did not come to provoke her, she did not want to interact with them.
The leisure time always passed quickly. Soon, it was time for zongbei to leave. Tong Huaer took him to the airport.
Because there were so many others around, Tong Huaer was too embarrassed to show his reluctance. Zong Beili pressed her against the car door and kissed her deeply before letting her go and saying, "Call me!" He landed on the plane without looking back.
Huge propellers circled in the sky.
Tong Huaer looked up at the rising plane disappearing into the thick fog, unable to tell what he felt in his heart.
This was the first time she and Zong Beili had separated when they were in a good relationship. She was reluctant, but she was also more rational. After all, Zong Beili had said that he would come to pick her up after he had dealt with the domestic affairs.
"Little miss, it's time for us to go back."
The sound of propellers had disappeared for a while, a bodyguard warned.
"Yes."
Tong Huaer returned to his senses, nodded and got into the car, which soon drove out.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped at the door of the villa. Tong Huaer got out of the car and saw Dongfang Furen's wheelchair at the door. He walked over quickly, "Grandma."
"Gone?" Dongfang Furen looked at her and said.
"Yes."
Tong Huaer nodded.
"Reluctant?" Dongfang Furen asked again.
"Yes." Tong Huaer still nodded.
"Great!"
Dongfang Furen glanced at her and curled his lips unhappily.
Tong Huaer's heart moved. She squatted down and looked at Dongfang Furen obediently, "Grandma, what exactly did you say to Zong Beili today?"
Zong Beili was willing to leave here alone. It was obvious that he and grandma had reached some kind of agreement.
"He didn't tell you?" Dongfang said, and Tong Huaer shook his head. Dongfang Furen narrowed his eyes and sneered, "It seems that he is trustworthy!"
"Then what did you say to him?" Tong Huaer said in surprise.
"I won't tell you." Dongfang Furen was actually keeping him in suspense. Tong Huaer was speechless and helpless. He frowned and suddenly asked, "Grandma, you won't really let him join the Dongfangjia, will you?"
"What if I say yes?" Mr. Dongfang said.
"How is that possible? Grandma, it's not like you didn't know he was the only son of the Zongjia..."
"What's an only son? Didn't his father give him another brother?" Dongfang Furen glared at her and said unhappily, "Huaer, don't be so unhappy. To tell you the truth, I didn't even look at him! I don't even have the opportunity to join the Dongfangjia that others might ask for, and I've wronged him?"
Tong Huaer: ..."
She could tell that the The dongfang family was well capitalised, but the problem was that Zong Beili was not greedy at all.
"During this time, you will learn how to do business with me. After the ceremony, you will be ready to marry Wei."
Dongfang Furen added.
"What?!" Tong Huaer was shocked and looked at Dongfang Furen in astonishment, "Grandma, you want me to marry someone else?"
"Wei is no one else! It's your future husband!" Dongfang Furen squinted at her and said, "When you and Wei get married, the Dongfang family will announce your marriage. By then, zongbei and li li will have to leave, even if they don't!"
"Grandma, are you serious?" Dongfang Furen's face showed no signs of joking. Tong Huaer panicked and frowned without thinking, "But I don't like Situ Wei! Marriage requires mutual love to be happy, and this kind of tugging and tugging will only become a tragedy!"
"Then Lan Shaoyan! That boy is not bad either. Although he spent a little before, it's not hard to tell that he's really interested in you just because he's looking for a woman like you!"
It could be Situ Wei, it could be Lan Shaoyan, but not Zong Beili!
Tong Huaer didn't know where grandma knew Lan Shaoyan was looking for a woman like her. She bit her lip and looked at her seriously, "Grandma, I won't marry anyone other than Zong Beili!"
Dongfang Furen frowned, his face suddenly unhappy, "Are you a silly child? What does he have to be worth your nostalgia for? If you like him like that, I'll get you a bunch!"
"But none of them are Zong Beili! Grandma, you have someone you love; I know Zong Beili doesn't satisfy you, but I just want to be with him. I don't want anyone else, no matter how good they are."
What she said was simple, but what she said was true.
In fact, Huaer had long wanted to make it clear to Dongfang Furen that it was just Dongfang Furen.
Dongfang Furen looked at her for a long time and sighed, "I just want to arrange something better for you."
"But marriage is not arranged." Tong Huaer looked at Dongfang Furen and said, "Grandma, I really don't want to marry anyone else."
Apart from Zong Beili, did she really not want to marry anyone else and arrange a perfect husband for her? Would her marriage be happy?
"If you don't marry the person I arranged, you have to give up inheriting the Dongfangjia, so you're willing to do the same? Or do you insist on being with him?"
Dongfang Furen asked.
The setting sun shone on her face, and Dongfang Furen's eyes were less benevolent and sharper.
At this point, she was not only Tong Huaer's grandmother, but also the head of the The dongfang family. She was in charge of the rise and fall of the family and the future.
"I want to be with him."
Tong Huaer nodded, his clear eyes resolute without hesitation.
"...
Dongfang Furen's face suddenly darkened, and it was obvious that she was unhappy, but Tong Huaer looked at her without blinking, without the slightest intention of changing her decision.
"Forget it. You can go back first. Come and see me tomorrow morning."
After all, Dongfang Furen did not lose his temper. He just turned his head and frowned.
Tong Huaer looked at her and wanted to say something more. After a moment of hesitation, he swallowed his words and got up to leave.
Anyway, it's not like there's going to be a wedding tomorrow. She still has time to convince grandma to give up on this plan.
After the conversation that evening, Dongfang Furen began to teach Huaer business, tell her about the history of the The dongfang family, and the important figures in the family. Dongfang Furen did not mention that she wanted to choose someone else as her husband.
Tong Huaer had been so busy these days that she couldn't care less. She was such a clumsy bird that she had been struggling to cope with all the things she needed to learn. She was not even in the mood to call Zong Beili.
