Chapter 1487: Chapter 1487: Are You Still Lacking Someone to Please You?
In any case, Lan Lao is swearing with utmost conviction, whereas now Old Man Xiao rarely gets to see Lan Lao suffer, so he is quite eager to meet the young man.
"I’ve never seen a young person make you suffer. I am somewhat interested in this young man. If, in three years, he really makes you apologize, he would be a respectable young person, and he’s quite nice to his parents. But, this time, I’m siding with Old Li. I absolutely don’t support you."
Upon hearing that Old Man Xiao is interested in the young man, Lan Lao becomes even more irritated. What charm does this young person possess? First, there was Old Li, now Old Man Xiao. But he’s just a troublemaker.
"Enough already. What are you interested in him for? Besides, we have important matters today, why bother getting tangled up over a young man? He’s merely someone who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth."
"If he truly didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, he might flatter you. Aren’t you surrounded by people who flatter you? But honest young people are really rare. If there’s a chance, introduce him to me. I really want to see what kind of young person dares confront the famous Lan Lao."
Lan Lao is extremely depressed now, but there is no way out, and fortunately, he didn’t apologize publicly today. Otherwise, he would have lost face completely.
At this moment, Xiao Keyi is being pushed into a fairy-like gown by the maid. These dresses are specially ordered from abroad, and even Aunt Yang Shi was involved.
"Wow, Miss, you look really beautiful today. You will surely attract many people’s attention. Even I am somewhat moved. I’m sure those gentlemen won’t be able to take their eyes off you. You’ll definitely have a good match in marriage. But if you marry, I’ll be a bit reluctant."
Upon hearing the maid’s words, Xiao Keyi blushes. But looking at the fair and handsome Gold at this moment, she too can’t help but stare. She usually doesn’t dress up properly, but once dressed like this, she looks exceedingly beautiful.
If Xu Ke sees her, he’ll surely be surprised, and Xu Ke should already be at the venue now. Thinking of Xu Ke in the future, Xiao Keyi doesn’t delay; she ought to go out and have a look first to avoid any mishaps.
So she hurriedly lifted her dress and ran out, and the maid quickly lost sight of her Miss when she zoned out for a second. Now worried, the maid knows she cannot go out because Xiao Keyi will make a grand entrance as the main character later, so she quickly blocked Xiao Keyi’s path.
"Miss, why are you in such a hurry? And the old chairman said you must make the final entrance. What’s the rush? He’ll arrange it, and besides, you look so beautiful today. You must make a surprise entrance."
How could Xiao Keyi possibly care about all this now? She’s only thinking of quickly meeting Xu Ke, so she is extremely anxious, but wearing high heels is inconvenient.
"Oh, you don’t need to listen to Grandpa, and he didn’t say I can’t go out. All right, I’ll go out and find someone first. I’ll definitely come back afterward. Nothing will happen, rest assured."
How can the maid truly be at ease? Their Miss is the most mischievous, and if something really happens once she’s out, they’re finished. They’ve been busy for half a day just to make Xiao Keyi’s entrance beautiful.
The maid, being by Xiao Keyi’s side, knows for sure that Xiao Keyi is pursuing Xu Ke, so an idea comes to mind.
"Miss, are you looking for someone? Your sweetheart is elsewhere."
Saying this, the maid leads Xiao Keyi toward the old chairman’s room. With the old chairman there, they can rest assured.
With the old chairman around, Xiao Keyi won’t do anything inappropriate, so the maid leads Xiao Keyi in that direction.
Seeing the maid, Xiao Keyi didn’t expect her to really understand her thoughts.
But it’s actually good; Xu Ke getting invited is nice. Otherwise, if anyone gave Xu Ke a hard time, she would not let it slide.
After leading Xiao Keyi to the place, the maid opens the door. Xiao Keyi wants to run, but it’s too late now, and she looks at the maid with resentment. The maid, finding no solution, quickly lifts her dress: "Miss, we really can’t help it; it’s the old chairman’s instruction."
Seeing the maid’s sincerity, Xiao Keyi can only helplessly glare at the maid.
"I talk to you, and you didn’t remember anything, but what Grandpa says goes straight to your heart. It’s like you’re not considering me at all."
Listening to Xiao Keyi’s complaint, the maid doesn’t take it to heart and quickly leaves, for Miss is currently in a bad mood. If responded to, Miss might take it out on them.
So these people, with good vision, all leave one by one, leaving Xiao Keyi to face Lan Lao and Grandpa alone.
Lan Lao hasn’t seen his god-granddaughter in a long time. Now he finally gets to, and quickly stands up: "This girl really changes day by day. The last time I saw her, she was still a little daughter, but now she’s grown a bit and is truly getting prettier."
Seeing Lan Lao arrive, Xiao Keyi is also very happy and quickly instructs someone to serve tea: "I haven’t changed much, but how come Grandpa is so happy? What’s the reason? Grandpa, why didn’t you have anyone serve tea?"
Upon hearing Xiao Keyi’s complaint, Lan Lao immediately feels much happier. After all, the old man was just laughing at me, but now he’s eating crow.
Now it’s to his delight, so he begins to complain endlessly: "You don’t know your Grandpa, he doesn’t treat me, his old friend, as a friend, doesn’t even offer me a cup of tea. I see, he has you, his granddaughter, and doesn’t need me anymore. Plus, he wasn’t really welcoming earlier. If it weren’t for your birthday party, I would’ve left long ago. You need to talk to your Grandpa; he’s completely unreasonable now."
Old Man Xiao is speechless. When does this old man not complain, always picks this time, and doesn’t feel embarrassed in front of his granddaughter? Really doesn’t understand this old man who acts childishly in front of her.
Thus, he feels quite helpless, yet extremely jealous; after all, she’s his granddaughter. Lan Lao makes it seem like she belongs to someone else.
"All right, just because the child arrives, don’t start complaining here; truly, seeing her after a long time and this is what you do."
