Chapter 40: Wild Granddaughter-in-law

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chu Ning was not afraid of anything. She was only fearful of how Li Rui looked like he wanted to eat her when he tore her dress! It was too scary. Taking a light breath, she looked across the lake and her breathing instantly stopped. She hated her good vision. She could see the broken cup and the broken pavilion pillar. That bastard wouldn’t ask her to compensate, right?

When Chu Ning came to Li Songmu, she said obediently, “Grandpa, I didn’t throw that cup just now.”

Li Songmu’s figure stiffened for a few seconds before he tried his best to show his trust. “Yes, Grandpa believes you.”

After Chu Ning finished speaking, the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch. One was blatant in her proclamation and the other was reckless in his belief.

She secretly glanced at Li Rui. He was staring at her. She calmed herself down and smiled. “Fourth Master, good morning.”

Li Rui said, “Morning.”

Chu Ning didn’t see anything in his expression or hear anything in his tone. So how was she going to deal with it next? Before she became a law-abiding citizen again, she didn’t have to think about socializing at all. In the past, she had always followed a principle. If one wasn’t convinced, she would hit the person until he was! But this set of rules was completely useless in front of Li Rui because she couldn’t beat this bastard.

Just as she was thinking about what to do next, the wretched man suddenly spoke first. Needless to say, the wretched man’s deep voice was as charming as a cello and magnetic. “Have you eaten breakfast?”

“No.” It was already noon when Chu Ning opened her eyes. Why would she be eating breakfast?

Li Rui said, “Come and eat.”

Chu Ning said, “Oh.”

But in the next second, Chu Ning looked back at his courtyard house. “There’s still someone at my house. Rong Fang…”

Li Rui said, “He’s eaten.”

Chu Ning asked, “How did he eat? He…”

Li Rui said, “Li Jie went to feed him.”

When Chu Ning heard this, she thought about this scene for a few seconds. The children also stood up and hugged her. “Mommy.”

They had wanted to look for their mother for a long time, but their father said that their mother had slept late last night and didn’t let them disturb her, so they had held it in. They had been talking just now, so they had waited until now.

Chu Ning leaned over and kissed them. “Did you sleep well last night?”

Xiaobao said, “Xiaobao slept soundly.”

Dabao said, “Dabao was also very obedient.”

Li Rui looked at the three of them. The two of them were indeed very obedient and good. However, their sleeping posture was not honest at all. When they woke up in the morning, Xiaobao’s feet were on Dabao’s face, and half of Dabao’s body was on the edge of the bed. He did not know how he did it, but his small hands were clinging to the bed and his eyes were closed. He was sleeping soundly and had not fallen down.

Li Songmu looked at how gentle and obedient she was. She was also so beautiful, and her voice was as pleasant as a lark’s. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t believe that she was someone who would throw a cup at a disagreement.

Li Rui glanced at Chu Ning and said to Li Songmu, “My fiancée, Chu Ning, the mother of Dabao and Xiaobao.”

Li Songmu nodded and said kindly, “Xiaoning, I’m Li Rui’s grandfather, and also Dabao and Xiaobao’s great-grandfather.” As he spoke, he began to touch his body, but after searching for a long time, he didn’t find the greeting gift. He turned to look at the butler and said seriously, “Go back.”

The butler immediately understood and went back to get the greeting gift that the old man had prepared for his granddaughter-in-law for decades. It could be said that ever since Li Rui appeared, the old man had prepared a greeting gift.

Chu Ning fell silent. So, his family didn’t know about her engagement with Li Rui? He didn’t even ask for his parents’ permission? If she had known this would happen, she would have worn yesterday’s clothes before coming over. At that time, Old Master Li would definitely not agree and she could break off the engagement.

Li Rui said, “Xiaoning, this is Grandpa.”

Chu Ning came back to her senses and looked at Old Master Li with renewed hope. “Grandpa, actually, I was the one who broke the glass just now! I couldn’t sleep last night and went to the bar to drink. I drank all night and only slept in the morning… So, Grandpa, I didn’t scare you, right?”

After saying that, she bowed sincerely and apologized. In her heart, she was looking forward to Old Master Li’s anger. It would be the kind of anger where he pointed at her nose and asked her to get lost, saying that she was not worthy of his precious grandson.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement.

Chu Ning looked up with a puzzled expression. “Grandpa?”

Li Songmu reacted and quickly replied, “Oh.” However, his heart was trembling. So his wretched grandson liked such wild people?
