Chapter 478 – A Startling Change; Everybody Has Their Own Plans (9)
A happy smile appeared on her pretty face and she asked cheerfully, “Shi xiong Luo, where are you heading?”
“Let’s go take a walk outside. We will go where you want to go!”
“Let’s go check out the waterfall. I’ve heard that it’s quite pretty.”’
“Okay, waterfall it is!”
The two left holding hands. Nobody gave them a second look. The Cheng’s family mbers and the disciples already knew they were a couple. Nobody thought much about it.
On the other hand, in the guest quarter outside of the main quarter, Zhu Bo, who was reviewing the accounting books, looked up at his son and asked, surprised, “Eh? How co you are back already? Did you not go to the main quarter?”
“Dad, can you please stop with the ddling already?”
Zhu Xiangyu had it up to his neck. He sounded very irritated, “She already has soone that she’s fond of. What is the point of going over there? It just makes everything awkward, alright?”
“What do you? What happened this morning?” Zhu Bo had rarely seen this side of his son. He couldn’t help but frowned and asked, “What’s the matter? What’s so awkward? How are you are getting less than less level-headed?”
“Dad, let’s just go ho, alright? Let’s not stay here anymore.”
“Tell what happened?”
Zhu Bo’s face darkened. A gloomy look crossed his face. Staring intently at his son, he said fiercely, “Zhu Xiangyu, what’s that attitude of yours? If that’s how you are going to be like, I am too disappointed at you. What are you looking at? What’s in your head? Have you forgotten that you are the successor of Green Mountain Manor? How could you feel defeated so easily? If that’s how you are going to be, how do you think our seniors at Green House Manor would think of you?”
“……”
“You better shape up and stop being so emotional. You be able to analyze your situation with a clear head and make decisions basing on what’s best for you. All these years and everything you have learned, where did they all go? I can’t believe I am hearing this from you. You are but a disappointnt!”
“……”
“You…”
Seeing that his son didn’t make a sound, Zhu Bo couldn’t keep on going. Still livid, he shouted angrily at his son, “Go inside your room and think it over. If you still can’t figure it out, watch and see what I will do to you!”
“….”
Zhu Xiangyu stood up quietly. He didn’t want to talk back anymore. He had listened to his father’s spiel way too many tis. He could repeat it word for word. Anything that he said, he already knew what’s the next ling going to be. It had beco all too familiar.
After his son had gone inside, Zhu Bo couldn’t sit and review the accounting books anymore. Having a headache, he rubbed his own temple, gestured that behind him to put the accounting books away and walked into the courtyard.
“A young man falling for girl for the first ti and all his rationality was out the window. I just hope that he’d recover soon; otherwise, he is going to make a fool out of himself sooner or later. Sigh.”
He talked to himself as he walked out of the courtyard. Before long, he was at the Elder Ying’s courtyard.
As soon as he walked inside the courtyard, he could already hear all the guests gathering and chitchatting as though everybody’s daily routine was to gather in this courtyard and randomly chitchat about everything and anything. Regardless of whether Elder Ying was there or not, everybody would still show up there daily. It had already beco part of their routine.
The number of attendees didn’t change and everyone had more or less had their own seat. They’d show up here everyday and look for their own seat.
Today was just like any other day, Zhu Bo had greeted the others and sat down at his spot. Lo and behold, Old Man Ying returned at the sa ti.
Everybody chitchatted for a while long and Clan Master Qin brought up a question that was on everybody’s mind.
