Chương 152: A LITTLE RESENTFUL

The dinner prepared at the Zhong estate was quite lavish. After all, the elder and the young master had not come to this residence for quite a while. Unfortunately, most of the diners at the table were not in a good mood. Only Elder Zhong ate his favourite dishes with relish.

Once the dinner was over, the old man invited Hu Lei to stretch her legs along with him. Since there was nothing strange about the request, she did not hesitate. It was a chance to escape the ever-present awkwardness that seemed to be floating around the mansion.

Elder Zhong started walking towards the lake in a carefree manner. For an old man, he had a lot of energy in his steps. He did not seem like he was burdened by the troubles of the world. However, Hu Lei could not help wondering why he had asked her to walk with him. When she thought about it a little more, she assumed that he wanted to evaluate her.

The grandpa stopped before they reached the lake and looked at her with anxious eyes.
