Chapter 101: I Can Protect Him

“How can you know if he’s suitable or not if you haven’t been in contact with him?” Su Yayan met Grandpa Cheng’s eyes and said in a solemn tone, “Compared to an able-bodied man who doesn’t love me, I would rather have a life partner who loves and respects me and puts me first in all matters.”

Grandpa Cheng felt that she made sense, and then he reacted. “Why do you have to choose between them? There are so many good men in this world. My granddaughter is so good. I don’t believe that there’s no one among all the able-bodied men in the world that can’t meet your requirements.”

“There are many good men in this world, but no one treats me better than him. I only want him, and I don’t want anyone else.”

Grandpa Cheng choked on his words. He wanted to get angry, but he looked at the pair of eyes that were almost identical to those of his deceased wife and felt that a basin of cold water had completely dowsed out his anger.

It was gone with a hiss!

“Are you serious?”

“Yes.” Su Yayan did not back down. “I’m serious. I can’t be more serious.”

Grandpa Cheng could not beat her, and he could not bear to scold her. He held back for a long time before turning his face away unhappily with a “Hmph!”

Su Yayan saw his reaction and immediately knew that she had passed half of his trial. She hugged his arm and said affectionately, “Moreover, Grandpa Cheng, if you think about it this way, it’s not all bad that he is like this. At least he can’t beat me in a fight. Even if he angers me, I can beat him to a pulp by myself. I won’t even need Grandpa Cheng to protect me. Am I right?”

“Hmph, he can’t beat you, so naturally he can’t beat others either. What’s any good if he cannot protect you?”

“He can’t protect me, but I can protect him! He is no match for me, but it’s good enough that I can protect him. With my current skill, there shouldn’t be many who can beat me, right?”

Grandpa Cheng, “…” She sounded very reasonable, and he could not find a reason to contradict her!

Grandpa Cheng, who had been rendered speechless, gave a cold snort and stood up clutching his walking stick. He yelled for Su Yuxuan to take him to his room and ignored Su Yayan.

As soon as the old man left, the tense atmosphere in the hall finally eased.

Qin Xueru, who was also Su Yayan’s Aunt Qin, breathed a sigh of relief and was able to say the first sentence to Su Yayan, “You are the only one who dares to talk to the old man like this.”

Su Yayan could not help but smile when she heard those words. “Grandpa Cheng just looks harsh, but his heart is soft.”

Qin Xueru smiled noncommittally.

The old man was famous for his stern attitude, whether toward their generation or the younger generation. Only in front of Su Yayan would he temporarily put away his sternness, revealing the softness in his heart.

Back then, Cheng Xiuqin was the most favored. However, even she had to take the backseat for this granddaughter of his.

It was because Su Yayan’s temperament was very similar to the old man’s when she was young, also because Su Yayan bore a striking resemblance to her grandmother, who had died young.

Qin Xueru was not dissatisfied with this. She and her husband were childless for so many years and have long regarded the two children in the Su family, especially Su Yayan, who was the youngest, as their own.

If children could win the hearts of their elders, they would also be happy.

Thinking of this, a trace of disappointment flashed in Qin Xueru’s eyes.

Su Yayan noticed the change in her expression, and her eyes flickered. She actively changed the subject. “By the way, how is Uncle Cheng? Why didn’t he come here with you?”
