Chapter 846 - Meeting an Outrageous Person

Su Xiyin smiled. “Your grandpa even thought that you were angry with him and feeling upset.”

Ling Sheng said, “I can’t possibly tell Grandpa that I’m beating her at her own game and catching her off guard anyway. Grandma, tell Grandpa that I’m really not angry with him.”

Su Xiyin said, “I understand. Don’t you know your grandpa yet? Given his temper, you can just coax him more tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Ling Sheng nestled in her grandma’s embrace obediently. She thought of the last time she had slept with Auntie Yu once more, and she felt warm.

“Your aunties told me that your grandpa and you agreed to let them arrange a blind date for you. Tell Grandma, did your grandpa force you?” It was only after Su Xiyin had had her dinner that her daughters-in-law told her about it and asked if she agreed. They said that the Old Master had already agreed to let them find Sheng Sheng a blind date partner.

Besides, Sheng Sheng had agreed to this too. The grandfather-granddaughter duo had decided on such a major affair and kept it from her.

“Grandpa asked me to go on blind dates. I was afraid that Grandpa would get angry, so I agreed.” Ling Sheng had initially been unwilling. How old was she? Why would she go on a blind date to find a marriage partner?

Besides, it wasn’t that she was narcissistic but did she still need to go on blind dates? As long as she wanted to, she could find a bunch of men with a wave of her finger and guarantee that they would all be tall, handsome, and have good characters.

However, she did not know what had gotten into Grandpa. He had actually listened to the advice of those aunties harboring malicious intentions, and forced her to agree to the blind dates.

“Why would you listen to him? He’s an old fool. What kind of good ideas could the women of those families have? He’s getting more and more muddled as he gets older.” Su Xiyin had already gone to get even with him. She asked him why he had not discussed this with her before taking the liberty to agree to let their daughters-in-law find a partner for Sheng Sheng.

In the end, he even got angry and threw a tantrum. He said that if she went to find their daughters-in-law and refused to let Sheng Sheng go on blind dates, he would go on a hunger strike and hang himself. He would not live anymore.

How old was he? His temper was like a child’s. In order to save his old face, she took her hands off of this issue.

“It’s nothing. I’ll just meet people in the next two days,” Ling Sheng sighed deeply. She was a filial granddaughter! She was even trying to go on blind dates for her grandpa’s sake.

“Does Third Master Jun know?” Su Xiyin was angry with him too. Who told him to make the decision on his own? He could sleep alone!

“My father made me break up with him and Grandpa didn’t agree either. We’ve broken up.”

“You lied to them and even to Grandma now!”

“I told my father that we broke up. Grandma, don’t worry about this. I’ll settle it myself.”

“I know you are opinionated. You can meet your blind dates for the next two days if you want, but if you don’t want to, just reject them, all right?”

“Okay, I understand.” Ling Sheng was very obedient.

The next morning, Ling Sheng started a life experience she had never had before—blind dates.

The Huo residence was humongous. Besides the main courtyard where Huo Xiao and his wife lived, there was also a villa. Normally, each family would stay in their own courtyard. They could also go to the main courtyard if they wanted to. However, usually, they would not go to the main courtyard unless there was something to do or if it was the first or fifteenth day of the lunar year.

In the past half a year, due to Huo Xiao mentioning the inheritance division, each of them had become more attentive than the other. They would come to eat and talk with the old couple, falling over one another in their eagerness to display filial piety.

Ling Sheng did not want to go on a blind date so she had discussed this with Huo Xuanzhou in advance and told him to act according to the circumstances. In return, she had promised to find a way to bring him to the Su residence.

Anyway, when he reached the Su residence, he had to be well-behaved and not dare to do anything. When the time came, she could let Auntie Su Yan see his true colors.

The first blind date had been arranged by Third Aunt, Ye Ru. They had been arranged to meet in the third family branch’s house, which was a five-minute walk away from the main residence.

“Sheng Sheng, wait a while more. The person will be here soon.” Ye Ru passed Ling Sheng some candy, dried fruit and smiled. “I’ve shown you the photo. He’s quite good-looking, and of suitable age to you. Most importantly, he has a good character. When we get married, the most important thing is the person’s character. Don’t you think so?”

Ling Sheng smiled and nodded, looking obedient and easy to manipulate. “Third Aunt is right.”

“Third Aunt definitely found the best for you. Don’t worry. And we’ve agreed that you’d have another blind date in the afternoon. They only have time these few days during the Lunar New Year. The child coming this afternoon will be leaving the country on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. To be honest, the family has arranged the schedule back to back,” Ye Ru patted her hand affectionately. “Ask me whatever you need to ask later. If you’re not satisfied, tell me directly.”

“Okay.” Ling Sheng was obedient.

Soon, her blind date partner arrived. He looked more robust in person than in the photo. He was wearing a suit and wore a pair of glasses, making him look like a pretty cultured person.

“Jingwei, you’re here.” Ye Ru hurriedly introduced the duo. “This is the real eldest daughter of our Huo Family, Sheng Sheng. This is Yi Jingwei, a young and promising professor at the Imperial Capital Music Academy. The two of you must have something in common.”

Ling Sheng looked at the man in front of her and greeted him with a smile.

Yi Jingwei nodded at her and sized her up from head to toe, as though he was looking at an item waiting to be sold for a good price.

Ling Sheng wanted to poke his eyes out due to his unconcealed gaze. What was he looking at?! She knew she was good-looking.

Ye Ru was the middle person. After introducing the duo, she went out and got the servants to serve tea for the young people to chat.

“I heard you have a son?” Yi Jingwei got right to the point with a question.

If she weren’t beautiful and also a member of the Huo Family, with his status, how could he have gone on a blind date with an impure woman who had given birth before?

Besides, his mother had also said that Auntie Ye had arranged this and asked him to give her some face.

“Yes.” Ling Sheng gave him an awkward but polite smile.

“Ms. Huo should also know that in the blind date market, once a woman gives birth, her value is different from that of a virgin’s.”

Ling Sheng did not speak, feeling rather disgusted. When a truly disgusting person spoke, it could cause nausea.

“I believe Auntie Ye has already told you that my Yi Family is also a scholarly family. We have high expectations for our future daughter-in-law. I hope that when you marry into the family in the future, you won’t mention that you have a son to anyone. Can you do that?”

Ling Sheng smiled without saying anything. Do you think I can do that? You can’t even compare to a single strand of my son’s hair. Where did you get the confidence that I would marry you?!

“Also, I heard that you’re a mini celebrity. The entertainment circle is too dirty and messy. I don’t want my other half to be in the entertainment circle. I hope you’ll withdraw from the entertainment circle immediately after you date me. It should be very simple!”

Ling Sheng felt that he was really funny. What does the kind of job I hold have anything to do with you? You really think you’re a little cabbage? Do you want me to help chop you up?
