"Then... then..."
Zhong Xue stammered for a moment, then didn't know what to say.
She stood rooted to the spot.
Lost in thought.
"Speak!" Zhong Shan's deep voice, laced with anger, boomed.
Zhong Xue felt wronged and retorted, "Grandpa, what are you doing? Why are you so harsh on me?"
"I told you to tell me the truth!"
"Don't change the subject!"
"I..." Seeing that she couldn't hide anything from her grandfather, Zhong Xue decided to stop concealing anything and told Zhong Shan everything that had happened in Lin City.
Upon hearing her account, his old face turned furious.
"I knew it!"
"You are so foolish!"
"Too foolish!"
"I'm telling you, go and apologize to Chen Fan immediately!"
"Hurry up..."
Zhong Xue looked as if she had misheard and said unhappily, "Grandpa, are you feeling alright?"
Zhong Shan deliberately patted his chest, "I'm fine!"
"Perfectly fine!"
"Enough with the nonsense. Go and apologize to Chen Fan, and get the marriage contract back!"
Zhong Shan's tone now held a hint of disappointment, as if he couldn't believe she was so uncoachable.
Ahhh...
He suddenly became incredibly energetic and excited.
These words, truthfully, caught Zhong Xue completely off guard.
Her expression and attitude remained unchanged as she said sternly, "Why should I apologize? I haven't done anything wrong, have I?"
"I only rejected someone I don't like?"
Zhong Shan then roared again, "Look at how old you are! Why do you still act on your whims? Do you know that Chen Fan is no ordinary person?"
Zhong Xue paid no mind to his words and casually remarked, "Heh... laughable, truly laughable! Grandpa, I cannot agree with what you're saying! I met that Chen Fan, and he is very ordinary. I don't see anything outstanding about him!"
"I think he is not worthy of me at all!"
"You..." Zhong Shan's entire body trembled with anger, his teeth clattering, "Do you know that one Chen Fan is more than enough to match a hundred of you?"
Undeniably, these words were a bit heartbreaking.
Zhong Xue froze on the spot.
Her small face was filled with grievance.
Ahhh...
She angrily slammed her fists in the air.
"Grandpa, what you're saying is really too much!"
"I... I'm not talking to you anymore!"
Zhong Shan remained extremely stern, "Whether you talk to me or not is a matter for later. Let's talk about now! If you don't go and apologize to Chen Fan, I will freeze all your bank cards! And don't expect Ruoyan's help."
"You..." Zhong Xue was on the verge of tears from anger, "You're so old, how can you bully a child like this?"
A child?!
Zhong Shan retorted, "If you are a child, you should be obedient instead of causing such a scene. How many times have I told you that Chen Fan's master is a highly skilled individual!"
"His master is powerful, but that doesn't mean he is powerful too!" Zhong Xue argued. "Besides, I've met him, and he's truly ordinary, with no special qualities whatsoever!"
"And he's a security guard!"
"Would you feel proud if your future grandson-in-law were a security guard?"
Hearing this, Zhong Shan's old face darkened. His master Hua's disciple went down the mountain only to become a security guard? How could this be possible?
But even if he became a security guard, so what?
He was still a disciple of a capable person!
His strength should not be underestimated...
