Chapter 7: Grandfather, I thought you loved me!
Heyun had never expected her grandfather to hold such a power against rich people. Who was her grandfather...really. Meanwhile, Eren was looking at her seriously.
"Heyun, are you hurt?" Eren scanned Heyun's body, but in the end, he couldn't find anything wrong so he smiled.
"Eren, how do you know my Grandfather?" Heyun asked as the tan boy flinched.
"Uuuh...,"
Heyun didn't know that her Grandfather was a monster in the business world. If only Zhang Zhaozhao's father didn't name his first son Zhang Zhaolong, Zhang Zhaozhao would've been a real dragon.
"Ahaha, your Grandfather and my gramps met just a few days ago! He said that I will be a perfect son-in-law candidate!" Eren gave a thumbs up.
Unbeknownst to Eren, the words 'son-in-law candidate' started to resound in Liang Heyun's head. She froze before she started to point at Eren.
"He what?!"
"Oh, he said that I will be one of your suitors...," Eren said, "I'll do my best to win this! Furthermore, I think son-in-law means being your actual brother! Don't you think so too? Sir Zhang said that only one of four could be your actual brother."
'Eren, son-in-law means...you're going to marry me!' Liang Heyun thought, but said nothing, 'Wait...four?'
"Eren, who are the other candidates?" Liang Heyun immediately asked. Zhang Zhaozhao was famous for his wide connections. But Eren said 'four' candidates. Liang Heyun couldn't help but sweat at the thought of choosing one of four.
'If the other three are people I don't know, I'll choose Eren immediately!' Liang Heyun made a resolution.
"Ah, the first person is Zhuang Guyin, the second one is Zhang Guo, and the last one is Yuezheng Xingyang," Eren said, "I'm the only one who didn't have a Chinese name..."
Liang Heyun immediately recognized one of the names, Zhang Guo. Zhang Guo was, in reality, Mr. Zhang!
"Wait a second! So Mr. Zhang's rumoured fiancee...is...me?" Liang Heyun pointed at herself.
"Zhang Guo is Mr. Zhang?" Eren looked surprised, "um...probably."
'What is going on..?' Liang Heyun felt her blood run cold. One of her suitors was her own teacher! Her favourite teacher to top! What was Zhang Zhaozhao planning!
"Sir Zhang also thought of adding another person in, but I still don't know that person," Eren said, "So far, there's only four."
'You're telling me there could be more!?!' Liang Heyun wanted to cry crocodile tears on the spot, 'what sin did I do in my past life that I have to suffer from a harem...'
Sure, she liked playing those dating sims, or visual novels...but noooo! Please not a real life harem! She couldn't choose as freely as she did in visual novels! A false move can't be 'go back to previous choice'-ed!
"Heyun, are you alright?" Eren looked at Heyun who had a straight face all the time. Her face was so stoic that the muscles started twitching due to overexertion.
"I'm fine," Liang Heyun answered. Although she didn't know who Zhuang Guyin and Yuezheng Xingyang were, she still needed to give a valid reason why she didn't want them. Although her Grandfather looked like a normal old man to her, after hearing how high his status actually were, Liang Heyun couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Zhang Zhaozhao had always been a serious man, coupled with the fact that he's a business dragon, how serious would he be when she talked about this...engagement in the future. Just thinking about it made Liang Heyun shiver a bit.
In the end, Liang Heyun accepted the clothes which cost a string or zeroes before changing and went out on a 'date' with Eren. Eren insisted on taking her to a date, saying that he want to have a headstart before the other guys came and snatch 'his Heyun' away. Liang Heyun, although stunned, agreed.
And so, the couple walked to a nearby cafe, to see Liang Heyun's Grandfather, sitting leisurely while drinking tea. A man the two recognized sitting beside him. The man's body had muscles, but not too evident. He also had a handsome face, making Liang Heyun sweat a little. The man looked at Liang Heyun, before his eyes brightened.
"Student Heyun? Are you the granddaughter Sir Zhang talked about?" his eyes showed great delight, making Liang Heyun rethink her choice of going with the flow.
'Isn't this...,' Liang Heyun looked at the man's face. Although he wore a pair of glasses, not like usual, Liang Heyun would always recognize this face...,'Mr. Buonto!'
"Ah, Heyun, you're here...with Duncan lad, I see," Zhang Zhaozhao sipped his tea, before directing a 'glare' at his granddaughter, "Have you made a choice?"
"It...isn't what you're thinking about Grandfather," Liang Heyun sucked her breath, chewing on the insides of her mouth. She always did so if she's nervous, and Mr. Buonto sure had taken note of it.
"No need to be nervous Dye, you see, I am also a part of the candidates," Mr. Buonto said, "Does the name Yuezheng Xingyang ring a bell to you?"
'...'
"You see, seeing Duncan lad with you means...his bucket of a mouth have spilled something to you, and I'm sure it's about this...arrangement of mine," Zhang Zhaozhao said, putting down the the cup, "And honestly, I didn't expect you to know all of them, as said by Yuezheng lad. I'm surprised, and elated at the same time."
"Huh?" Liang Heyun couldn't help but shudder a little.
"As said by Duncan lad before, I'm sure, you have to choose one of four, but right now, it's one of five, but the last one can only meet you in a few month's time...," Zhang Zhaozhao looked at Liang Heyun with his eyes full of love, "So, be sure to not choose anyone in the meantime!"
"..."
Grandfather! I thought you loved me!
"Anyways, there's something I'm going to talk to you about, please don't hate me for this," Zhang Zhaozhao suddenly said.
"Huh...?" Liang Heyun ripped her thoughts off the group of men before looking at her Grandfather, "what is it Grandfather?"
"I want you to start going to the family dojo," Zhang Zhaozhao announced as if it was the heaviest decision in his life.
"Huuuh?"
