Chapter 287: What kind of sacred person

~8 min read 1,461 words

Wu Wu Donghai was also quite depressed.

He thought that by coming over and proposing marriage, Old Master Song would agree without hesitation and immediately regard his son as a son-in-law.

But he didn't expect that Old Master Song would refuse his proposal again and again!

This made Wu Wu Donghai feel a sense of humiliation.

Wu Xin also frowned, slightly dissatisfied, and said, "Grandpa Song, why don't you want Wanting to marry me? My Wu family is the number one family in Jiangnan. Even if we put it in Yan Jing or the whole country, how many people dare to say they are stronger than me, Wu Xin?"

Old Master Song looked at him and smiled slightly, "Young Master Wu is naturally a hero among people, but this matter of feelings cannot be forced."

For Old Master Song, these two father and son had no self-knowledge, and he couldn't speak too absolutely, so he could only focus on persuasion.

Wu Xin hummed gloomily, feeling extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

He thought it was a matter of course, but it turned out to be more difficult than Tang Seng fetching scriptures.

Just when he was annoyed, Song Rongyu returned.

Seeing the Wu family father and son visiting at home, Song Rongyu hurriedly stepped forward and said very politely and courteously, "Uncle Wu, Wu Xin, why are you two free to visit our home today?"

Wu Wu Donghai smiled slightly at him and said, "Rongyu, I just sent Wu Qi back to Su Hang this morning. I plan to stay in Jin Ling with Wu Xin for a few days to investigate who harmed Wu Qi, so I came to visit your grandfather and prepare to stay at your house for a few days."

As he spoke, Wu Wu Donghai added, "By the way, Rongyu, do you think it's appropriate for my son Wu Xin and your cousin Wanting to be together?"

As soon as Song Rongyu heard this, he blurted out, "Appropriate! Of course appropriate! Absolutely a talented man and a beautiful woman! A match made in heaven!"

Wu Wu Donghai nodded with great satisfaction and said to Old Master Song, "Uncle Song, you heard Rongyu's words too. I think if this matter were asked to every family in Jiangnan, everyone would give the same answer as Rongyu."

Old Master Song was a bit embarrassed and didn't answer for a while.

On this side, Song Rongyu couldn't help but blurt out, "Grandfather, how appropriate Wu Xin and Wanting are! And, them being together is also a strong alliance for our two families!"

Song Rongyu knew his grandfather's thoughts and knew he wanted Song Wanting to be with Ye Chen.

However, this was something Song Rongyu couldn't accept, so he also longed to persuade his grandfather to agree to the Wu family's proposal.

Old Master Song didn't expect his own grandson to help outsiders and persuade him in turn!

Didn't he know he wanted Song Wanting to be with Ye Chen?

Old Master Song knew clearly that he obviously knew, and the reason he said so was definitely because he didn't want to see Song Wanting and Ye Chen develop.

Thinking of this, Old Master Song even felt a bit dissatisfied with Song Rongyu.

The old master had lived to this age and had long been a human spirit. This little thought of Song Rongyu was seen through by him at a glance.

So, he said indifferently, "Rongyu, it's not your turn to persuade me about your sister's affairs."

Song Rongyu's heart skipped a beat, knowing he had made his grandfather unhappy, so he immediately closed his mouth sensibly.

Yu Bo came in from outside at this time and said to Old Master Song, "Old Master, the eldest lady is back and is parking the car."

"Mm," Old Master Song nodded lightly.

Wu Wu Donghai and Wu Xin exchanged a look.

Wu Xin saw the meaning in his father's eyes. He was encouraging himself to directly mention this matter to Song Wanting.

A moment later, Song Wanting stepped in. Seeing Wu Wu Donghai and Wu Xin, she was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward and exchanged a few polite greetings.

Wu Wu Donghai smiled and said to Song Wanting, "Wanting, I was just talking about you with your grandfather."

Song Wanting asked in surprise, "Talking about me? I don't know what you and grandfather were talking about regarding me?"

Wu Xin looked at Song Wanting at this time, his eyes earnest as he opened his mouth, "Wanting, we can be considered to have known each other since childhood, and we can be considered half childhood sweethearts. Plus, our two families are family friends, so we thought about forming a closer relationship with the Song family. So I begged my father to come and propose marriage to Grandpa Song. Grandpa Song said he wanted to ask your opinion. I don't know if you are willing to give me a chance?"

Song Wanting said awkwardly

Wu Xin hurriedly said, "If you feel this is too sudden, we can slowly cultivate feelings. Let's start by dating. What do you think?"

Song Wanting glanced at her grandfather, then shook her head apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Wu Xin, I already have someone I like..."

Wu Xin felt very depressed inside, but he continued to press relentlessly, "Wanting, I heard from Grandpa Song that the person you like is just an ordinary person, not a descendant of any great family. As the granddaughter of the Song family, marrying an ordinary person will make you a laughingstock!"

"Not at all," Song Wanting said very seriously. "Marriage is something that should be based on love. Marrying for other reasons violates the essence of marriage."

Having said that, she also advised Wu Xin, "Wu Xin, as you just said, we have known each other since we were children. I also advise you not to choose a spouse or marriage for the sake of family interests. Most such marriages are not long-lasting, let alone happy."

Hearing this, Wu Xin felt even more depressed than death.

Damn it, I came here to marry you, and not only did you reject me, but you also advised me not to marry for family interests? Your use of 'Tai Chi' is truly masterful! To deflect a thousand pounds with four ounces like this—how can she be just a girl in her twenties!

Wu Wu Donghai was also filled with amazement at this moment.

He really didn't expect that Song Wanting could not only politely decline his son's courtship but also use the excuse that family marriages are not long-lasting or happy to block the path even more firmly. This was simply a double rejection of Wu Xin!

The more surprised he was by Song Wanting's intelligence, the more Wu Wu Donghai hoped that Song Wanting could become his daughter-in-law.

If such a woman could become the daughter-in-law of the Wu family, she would definitely be a virtuous helper to his son!

At this very moment, he had made up his mind: the Wu family was determined to have this granddaughter of the Song family!

Therefore, Wu Wu Donghai stepped forward, patted the somewhat depressed Wu Xin, and said with a smile, "You and Wanting are both young people. You should indeed advocate for freedom of love and marriage, so there is no need to rush these things. Anyway, you are still young and have plenty of time, so there is no need to be anxious for now."

Seeing that Wu Wu Donghai was finally no longer aggressive, Old Master Song felt a sense of relief. He nodded, called over Uncle Yu, and instructed, "First, arrange for Wu Donghai and Wu Xin to go to the guest rooms. Make sure there is no neglect. Then notify the restaurant to prepare lunch immediately. We must treat the father and son well at noon."

Uncle Yu quickly agreed and said to Wu Wu Donghai and Wu Xin, "The two of you, please come with me to the guest rooms."

Wu Wu Donghai nodded and said to the Song family, "Then we will go to the guest rooms first and see you in the restaurant later."

After saying goodbye, the two followed Uncle Yu and walked all the way to the guest rooms.

Once inside the guest room and the door was closed, Wu Xin said somewhat impatiently, "Dad! Isn't that old man Song looking down on people too much?! He actually doesn't even think much of me?!"

Wu Wu Donghai smiled indifferently and said, "Don't panic. Investigate for a few days first to see if Song Wanting really has someone in her heart. If she does, I must find out exactly who this sacred person is!"
