"Okay, I promise you. But you must bring this rift between our family and the Taos to a beautiful close so no one can hold it against you." Old Patriarch Lu compromised.
"No problem." Lu Zhi agreed readily.
Old Master Lu glared at him and said, "You used to be so pure of heart and free from desires. You didn't take any woman seriously, but you fell so hopelessly for this girl?"
In the old man's eyes, Jiang Yining was indeed different from other girls.
She was quite attractive.
But not to the extent of being unparalleled or being "the one" for him.
Why did Ah Zhi fall for her?
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Great-grandpa wouldn't understand." Lu Zhi said calmly.
Old Patriarch Lu was speechless.
...
Jiang Yining waited and waited in the living room, but Lu Zhi hadn't appeared.
She deeply suspected that Old Patriarch Lu had asked someone to detain him.
