"Grandma, you..." Tong Huaer frowned.
She had thought that after what happened with Teacher Duosuo, grandma would be more or less open about her and Zong Beili, and her attitude towards Zong Beili had eased a little.
Tong Huaer thought Dongfang Furen would never force her to be with someone else again, but things were still the same!
"I know what you want to say." Dongfang Furen interrupted her, and Tong Huaer was stunned. The old man sighed and looked at her with a twinkle in his eyes, "Huaer, it's not that I don't allow you to be with Zong Beili, but... I want you to be happy. I've walked that way, so I know how you feel when you go back to a cold room. This is not a day or two. This is your life!"
"Although Wei is not the person you love in your heart, he can love and protect you and stay by your side. Do you understand what I mean?"
Dongfang Furen didn't force her to marry someone else, he just wanted her to choose a better life.
Tong Huaer was stunned. After a while, she smiled and said, "I understand, but grandma... If I were with him, I wouldn't be afraid of anything. If we weren't together, the best house would be an ice cellar to me."
She did not know what it was like to be in a long-distance relationship for decades, nor was she sure that zong beili would accompany her to live such a life for decades.
She could go find a man who could give her warmth now, but she didn't want to.
Although Teacher Duosuo was not usually able to speak, there was a saying that was right, "If the two love for a long time, it will be morning and evening."
If one day, her fate with Zong Beili is really broken, then let her stay alone in the cold room, she would rather, stay for the rest of her life.
"You... Oh, that's all." In the end, Dongfang Furen sighed helplessly and shook his head, "You don't look like me, nor do you look like your mother, Huaer..."
Unlike when she was young, she never had the courage to fight for family responsibilities.
She was not like her mother, viney, who used the most extreme method to force her loved one to make a choice and ended up separated by yin and yang.
"Children have their own children and grandchildren. In a while, you will be the owner of the Dongfangjia. I can't just paint a picture of you." Dongfang Furen sighed.
The Dongfangjia family rules, the head of the family is the most powerful person in the family, even the direct line of elders can not be arbitrarily criticized.
Tong Huaer returned to his senses and smiled, "Grandma, what are you talking about? You will always be my grandma."
"Then you have to listen to my wife." Dongfang Furen glanced at her and said earnestly, "Huaer, I still hope you can choose Wei."
Situ wei was the best candidate for Dongfang Furen's grandson-in-law, and this topic was destined to be unresolved, so Tong Huaer did not speak again.
"Well, you've been busy all day. Go back and rest. I'm tired. I need to rest for a while."
Dongfang Furen waved his hand.
"Okay, grandma, you should rest early."
Tong Huaer stood up and said.
Coming out of the living room, Tong Huaer walked all the way to her room. Passing the garden, she paused and looked to the other side.
It's Situ Wei. I don't know what to say to his bodyguard. I think it's about the Dongfangjia.
He was clearly asked to go back to rest, but he was still working for the Dongfangjia. Tong Huaer looked at Situ's slightly arched back, shook his head helplessly, and raised his foot to go back to the room.
The Dongfangjia elders were very particular. The date was set to be two months later, and Tong Huaer did not comment on this matter. Anyway, she just had to smooth the handover with grandma, so that grandma and Teacher Duosuo would no longer be together.
The change of family head was a major event for the Dongfangjia, and everyone was prepared in an orderly manner. As the days passed, Tong Huaer resumed his schedule before leaving, reported to the Dongfangjia on time every day, and began to take charge of some work.
Although some of the elders of the Dongfangjia were not close to her, fortunately, they did not make things difficult for her on these big issues. When Tong Huaer had questions like they asked for advice, they also carefully taught her, and estimated that these people really did not want the Dongfang family to fall into her hands.
To Tong Huaer's surprise, as the time for her to take over the family was set, more and more people urged her to marry, and these people all chose... Situ Wei.
It was obvious that Situ Wei had won the hearts of not only Dongfang Furen but also the elders of the Dongfangjia.
Every time it came to this question, Tong Huaer would not answer. After all, she couldn't really be with Situ Wei.
At noon, Tong Huaer took the contract and walked to Situ Wei's office.
Since she came back, Situ Wei seemed to be a lot busier. She used to see people often, but now she often looked for a few laps without seeing anyone.
After all, she would rather consult him about the Dongfangjia; first, she had no sense of restraint in dealing with her elders, and second, she could avoid being urged to marry.
Knock knock knock."
Tong Huaer stood at the door and knocked.
"Come in." Situ Wei's voice came from the room.
He was in the office today? Tong Huaer, who was just taking a chance, raised his lips and pushed the door open, "Situ Wei, you... Eh? Why are you here?"
Tong Huaer looked at Lan Shaoyan, who was sitting on the sofa in surprise. His dark blue suit looked like still water, and there was a clear aura all over his body, completely incompatible with his evil face.
Uh...
Has Lan Shaoyan recently switched to cold abstinence?
"Huaer, come in and sit down." Situ Wei sat on the other side of the sofa and waved at her.
Tong Huaer looked up and walked over. He looked at Master lan and said, "I'm talking to you. Why don't you talk to me?" Is this guy in a bad mood today?
Lan Shaoyan raised his eyelids and glanced at her. His deep voice was faint, "Why can't I be here?"
"...
She thought it was strange. If she remembered correctly, wasn't Situ Wei incompatible with Lan Shaoyan? Why would Lan Shaoyan come to Situ Wei voluntarily?
"Huaer, are you looking for me?"
Situ wei said.
"Ah, something's wrong. It's like this. I don't know much about this place..." Tong Huaer then remembered the business and quickly showed the contract in her hand to Situ wei, pointing at something she didn't understand.
Situ wei glanced at the contract and pressed it down, "We'll talk about this later. We have business to do now."
"What is it?" Tong Huaer asked doubtfully.
Situ wei turned to look at Lan Shaoyan. The sun cast a shadow on his erect nose. Lan Shaoyan frowned at her and said, "Brian has disappeared."
