“Tell me, what’s with this dress?” Dongfang Ke wanted to treat his old friend’s granddaughter well.
However, even though this child might have lost her family since she was young, no matter how well he treated her, he could not feel her appreciation. She was cold to everyone.
She stayed in the Dongfang family for only two years before asking to study abroad. For the next nine years, she did not return to the capital except for the new year.
Wen Ruoshui stood politely beside the old man. “It’s a friend’s coat.”
Dongfang Ke was very strict with his children and grandchildren. They had to tell him who they were dating first, afraid that they would meet someone with ulterior motives. “What friend?”
Wen Ruoshui said, “Just an ordinary friend.”
Dongfang Ke looked at her cold face and felt annoyed. “What kind of ordinary friend? He even gave you his coat?”
He had found someone to read her fortune and said that this child was destined to be alone. She jinxed her parents and family, her entire family had been jinxed to death by her.
Coupled with the fact that she did not know how to wheedle like other girls, and that she usually looked cold and unapproachable, it made him dislike her even more.
If his old friend hadn’t entrusted her to him before he died, he would never have cared about such a person.
“Grandpa, don’t ask.” Dongfang Chu helped to speak up. “Shui Shui won’t lie. It’s so cold outside, what’s wrong with her friend giving her his coat?”
“What friend? She must have a boyfriend outside.” Dongfang Xi retorted indignantly and looked at Wen Ruoshui provocatively. “Did you have a shameful boyfriend? You don’t dare to tell Grandpa because you’re afraid of embarrassing yourself! Is it a doctor in your hospital?”
Who did she think she was? Who was she putting on a dead face for?!
Wen Ruoshui did not even look at her and completely ignored her like she was a clown. “Grandpa, if I have a boyfriend, I will definitely bring him home for you to see.”
Dongfang Xi sneered and was about to continue.
Dongfang Ke glared at her and gave her a look. He coughed softly. “Since your grandfather entrusted you to me, you are my granddaughter. As the daughter of the Dongfang family, you are not allowed to date anyone.”
When she got a boyfriend, he had to be of equal status. Logically speaking, he should be the one to decide on the marriage of the daughter of the Dongfang family. However, her identity was really awkward.
The daughters of the Dongfang family had to listen to him and marry into the family. If they could not bring any benefits to the family, what was the use of him raising them?
“I will remember Grandpa’s words.” Wen Ruoshui nodded at the old man and turned to leave.
Dongfang Xi gritted her teeth in anger and clenched her fists.
Damn it, he’d just let her go? Grandpa was too biased!
This man’s coat definitely did not belong to an ordinary man. Wen Ruoshui, this little bitch, must have a man outside!
As daughters of the Dongfang family, they had no right to have a boyfriend in private.
In Grandpa’s eyes, they were just objects to be exchanged for benefits. They had to marry a man who was compatible with them and could bring benefits to the Dongfang family!
To put it simply, it was a marriage between wealthy families.
She and her boyfriend had been in an underground relationship for two years, but last time, she accidentally bumped into Wen Ruoshui.
That night, her grandfather found out about her relationship. The family punished her and forced her to break up with her boyfriend.
She knew that Wen Ruoshui, that little bitch, must have complained to her grandfather and told him about her.
Dongfang Chu gave Dongfang Xi a warning look and turned to chase after Wen Ruoshui.
“Chu Chu, you stay.” Dongfang Ke stopped her and looked at Dongfang Xi. “Xi Xi, go back and rest!”
Dongfang Xi left unwillingly. Before she left, she glared fiercely at Dongfang Chu. She would never let that talkative little bitch Wen Ruoshui off!
This wasn’t over. She had to find out who the man she was dating was.
“Grandpa, Shui Shui isn’t a girl who doesn’t know her place.” Dongfang Chu thought that he was going to ask about Wen Ruoshui, so she quickly explained, “She definitely won’t have a random boyfriend. Her life scope is limited to two things, she’s either at home or in the hospital. How would she have the time to have a boyfriend?”
Besides, Shui Shui was more interested in medical literature, medicine, patients, and all kinds of difficult illnesses than in men.
“Don’t mention her.” Dongfang Ke didn’t have high expectations of Wen Ruoshui. After all, she wasn’t his child. She had a cold personality and had her own ideas, she wasn’t someone he could control. “Let’s talk about you. I asked your mother to arrange for you to meet that child from the Jiang family tomorrow!”
“Grandpa,” Dongfang Chu shouted angrily. She sat beside the old man and extended a hand. “I just came back for the new year and have already met so many people.”
“Didn’t you look down on all of them?” Dongfang Ke doted on Dongfang Chu the most, he gave her a rare loving smile. “If you listen to me obediently, will I harm you?”
Chu Chu was the eldest granddaughter of the Dongfang family, she was beautiful and outstanding. She was more than enough to match any rich young master in the capital, she should choose and find a future husband.
“I just met Yan Yuanfei yesterday, and you want me to meet Jiang Zhe. They are good brothers, that’s not good!” Dongfang Chu pouted gloomily. “Can I not meet him?”
“That child from the Yan family is very outstanding and he’s quite good-looking. However, the Yan family members died young.” At this point, Dongfang Ke sighed regretfully. “If that wasn’t the case, Grandpa would still be very satisfied with him. It’s fine if you don’t like him.”
He shouldn’t have let Chu Chu go on a blind date yesterday. The men of the Yan family wouldn’t live past their thirties, he didn’t want his precious granddaughter to be a widow after marrying over.
“Grandpa, I’m only 19 years old. I’m not in a hurry to get married.” Dongfang Chu was helpless. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have returned to China. She hugged his arm and said coquettishly, “I still want to stay at home and be filial to Grandpa for two more years!”
“Tell me the truth. Do you have someone you like?” Dongfang Ke asked her with a straight face.
In fact, he had been alert for a long time. Chu Chu had met more than 10 people. They were all young talents with prominent families and good looks, but she did not like any of them.
“No.” When Dongfang Chu said this, she felt a little guilty. Her eyes flashed. “Grandpa, I just returned to the country. How can I have someone I like?”
Dongfang Ke said, “If you like anyone, tell me. I’ll help you.”
“Got it.” Dongfang Chu nodded.
If it weren’t for the fact that he wanted her to stay behind, she would have flown out of the country long ago.
