MTL - Her Majesty’s Modern Harem-Chapter 48
【Chapter 48】
Although Chu Qinglian was eager to see his other grandson whom he had never met, when he entered, his eyes fell on Su Junli involuntarily.
In this world, there is a kind of person who, no matter how he or she pretends to be, is like an awl in a pocket, unable to cover up the sharpness and extraordinary temperament that she (him) unconsciously exudes.
Su Junli is such a person.
Although she stood quietly behind Ye, Lan Xin smeared her beautiful face into an ordinary person's appearance, and lowered her head, trying to make everyone ignore her.
Perhaps, ordinary people would ignore her and would not be able to recognize her sharpness, but, as the same type of Chu Qinglian, he could smell the same temperament and sharpness as himself from her at a glance.
His gray-white pupils, which already knew how to restrain his sharpness, looked like ordinary people, shrank slightly, with a gleam of surprise.
The surprise quickly disappeared, and then fell on Ye's face.
Seeing Ye Na's face that was 70% similar to Chu Xian's, his gray pupils lit up with joy, and couldn't help blurting out: "Great, our Chu family finally has a successor."
He never had high hopes for Chu Xian, and he knew that he was not the kind of person who could provoke the Chu family, but he had to make him the heir of the Chu family because there was no other male.
But now, from Ye's face, he could see his unique tenacity and extraordinary aura.
"dad-"
Chu Junyi looked at Chu Xian apprehensively, worried that he would lose his mind.
But Chu Xian didn't feel this way.
He never thought about the ambition to become the heir of the Chu family, but he couldn't avoid it, and this responsibility made him miserable.
If Ye could inherit the Chu family's great business instead of him, he would be most happy, so how could there be jealousy?
If he didn't know Su Junli's feelings for Ye, he would even propose that Ye and Zhou Ziyu get married.
"Chu Xuan?" Chu Qinglian looked at Ye and called.
"I'm calling Ye Ye now!"
For Chu Qinglian, Ye also had a kind of familiar feeling, and based on his inexplicable feelings about the Chu family, he was already 80% sure that he should be Chu Xian's brother.
It's just that he really can't accept such a strange title, just like he can't accept it for the time being, because he is not an orphan, but has a big family.
"Ye? Well, it's also a good name, very similar to your personality." Chu Qinglian reached out and patted Ye's shoulder in satisfaction.
Except for Su Junli, Ye, who was never used to being approached at close range, unconsciously resisted with luck when his palm fell on his shoulder.
Chu Qinglian suddenly felt a powerful force bounce his palm away, he was slightly startled, his mouth was pursed, and the palm fell towards Ye's shoulder again.
Ye suddenly felt his shoulders sink, as if a heavy weight was pressing down on him.
Again he fends off—
Unexpectedly, the stronger he is, the greater the gravity that Chu Qinglian presses down on.
He looked at Chu Qinglian in surprise, he didn't expect such an old man to hide his edge.
At first, he thought he was just an ordinary old man with relatively strong abilities, but unexpectedly he turned out to be a martial arts master, what a peep.
Thinking that he was just his grandfather, Ye didn't want to do too many temptations, but let himself relax.
Chu Qinglian's palm finally landed on his shoulder, and then he laughed heartily, "Old man, I really did not misunderstand the person, you will be my good grandson of Chu Qinglian! Hahaha!"
Chu Junyi at the side also had a pleasant smile on his face.
He was indecisive by nature, so he was disappointed by his father, and gave birth to a son, Chu Xian, who was weaker than him, and had no sense of responsibility for the family. He just wanted to surround a woman and be her secretary.
Therefore, whenever his father sighed that the Chu family had no successors, he was under a lot of pressure.
Now it seems that his father is very satisfied with his son Ye who has just emerged, and he also sees that Ye has characteristics similar to his father.
There was no change on Ye's face, and his black eyes, like deep pools, quietly watched Chu Qinglian, knowing that he could bring a lot to him.
However, he is not rare!
Su Junli was his whole world, he just wanted to be by her side, guard her, and watch her laugh and be sad.
"This is your little girlfriend?" Chu Qinglian's satisfied gaze shifted from Ye's face to Su Junli's side again, and looked at her with the eyes aimed at his daughter-in-law.
"Yeah." Ye nodded, and reached out to hold Su Junli's hand.
Su Junli raised her head to meet Chu Qinglian's gaze.
"Not bad girl! Even better than the little girl of the Zhou family!" Chu Qinglian nodded with satisfaction, "Our Chu family will develop more steadily with these two granddaughter-in-laws."
Chu Xian, who had been silent all this time, turned pale. He glanced at Su Junli, then lowered his head and said, "I don't want to marry Zhou Ziyu! I already have someone I like!"
"presumptuous!"
Chu Qinglian sternly reprimanded him. The old man who looked very gentle suddenly turned into an ancient sword drawn from its sheath. His whole body was sharp and horrifying.
Chu Xian shrank slightly and lowered his head.
"Why does he insist on marrying Zhou Ziyu?" Ye asked aloud.
Chu Qinglian glanced at Su Junli, pursed his lips and remained silent.
Su Junli knew that he was treating herself as an outsider at this time, and that Chu Xian's marriage to Zhou Ziyu was an internal matter of the Chu family.
"I go out for a while."
She glanced at Ye and said lightly.
Ye knew that she wanted to leave a hole for herself to explain why Chu Xian insisted on marrying Zhou Ziyu, so she nodded, "Wait for me."
Su Junli turned and left the basement.
"Grandpa, tell me, why do I insist on marrying Zhou Ziyu? Is it really because of her kidney?" Chu Xian asked a little unwillingly.
"For the sake of the entire Chu family, you have no choice." Chu Qinglian said, "As for the daughter of the Su family in Xinjiang, she is too petty, and she cannot match up with the daughter-in-law of the Chu family at all."
Hearing him say Su Junli like this, Ye felt very uncomfortable, and said, "Your prejudice against Junli is too great. In the whole world, there is no other woman who can be as generous as her."
"Oh? You also know Ms. Su at night?" Chu Qinglian was slightly surprised, "According to my investigation, she is just an ordinary rich girl who can't even manage a company well. How can you help Chu Xian? However, your little girlfriend is very good, although she looks ordinary, but with her temperament, you can tell at a glance that she is someone who will make a big deal."
Chu Xian and Ye Xin looked at each other in agreement, and secretly smiled.
If grandpa knew that the ordinary rich girl he mentioned was the Su Junli he had affirmed just now, I don't know what to think.
"I know her very well." Ye said lightly, "Therefore, I don't want you to say things that slander her or do things that hurt her, otherwise, I will never be polite to you."
Hearing what Ye said, Chu Qinglian looked at him thoughtfully, "Is your relationship so good?"
"I was adopted by her grandma. Without them, I would have died long ago." Ye said.
After hearing this, Chu Qinglian was very grateful to Su Hanxiao in his heart, thanking her for training her grandson into such a talent.
For this sake, he couldn't say anything more.
"Which family is that girl from just now?" Chu Qinglian asked.
"It's from the Su family." Ye said.
"It's also from the Su family?" Chu Qinglian was surprised, "Then what does she have to do with Su Junli?"
Ye and Chu Xian glanced at each other, knowing that it was not appropriate to reveal Su Junli's identity at this time, so as to avoid complications.
"Sister." Ye said.
"Sister? As far as I know, Su Junli should be the only daughter." Chu Qinglian frowned slightly.
"Grandpa, as far as others know, I should also be an only child, but didn't I also have a twin brother?" Chu Xian retorted from the side.
"It's also possible. It's just that I can't imagine how an ordinary merchant family like the Su family can cultivate a girl who looks like a king and looks down on the world." Chu Qinglian said.
Ye pursed his lips and did not answer.
"Grandpa, you haven't said why I insist on marrying Zhou Ziyu? What secret is involved in this?" Chu Xian asked aside.
"You don't need to know this secret. Anyway, your combination is directly related to the life and death of the two families. You must get married." Chu Qinglian said, "You also know that I have to retire in one year. At that time, if I don't With my support, it is entirely possible that our Chu family will go downhill and go downhill."
"Dad, now that Chu Xuan is here, our Chu family will have more hope." Chu Junyi said from the side, "Chu Xuan looks like someone who does great things."
"En." Chu Qinglian looked at Ye with satisfaction, "I hope he can be the leader of the Chu family in this year, so I can rest assured."
"I can provoke the Chu family, but there is one condition—"
The night said.
"What are the conditions?" Chu Qinglian asked.
"Immediately cancel the wedding between Chu Xian and Zhou Ziyu, and let him return to Su Junli's side." Ye said.
Hearing what he said, Chu Xian was really surprised, as were Chu Qinglian and Chu Junyi.
"No! Unless you marry Zhou Ziyu instead of him." Chu Qinglian said, "Only in this way can he be free!"
Ye's expression immediately fell, and he said coldly, "I won't marry Zhou Ziyu!"
"Then there is no room for negotiation. Chu Xuan, Chu Xian married Zhou Ziyu for the sake of your future development." Chu Qinglian said.
"What is it for?" Night asked.
"We can't talk about this for the time being, until the blood of the Zhou family and the Chu family are fused together, then the secret can be revealed." Chu Qinglian said.
"Blood fusion? That's very easy. You can use Zhou Ziyu's blood to fuse with mine, and there is no need for the two to form a husband and wife." Chu Xian shouted.
"This fusion of blood actually refers to the **** of yin and yang! If you don't become a husband and wife, how can you do it?" Chu Qinglian scolded, "This is the biggest thing you can do for the Chu family, and your mother also needs her kidney One source!"
Chu Xian was silent.
