1142 Argument (Chapter preview)

"Nuannuan didn't wash up last night, so she went up to shower and change. Where were you thinking?"

"Bah!"

Old Master Nangong looked at Old Master Chi, who lied through his teeth without stuttering, and spat at him.

"How thick-skinned can you be? Just look at how old you are! Can't you place your thick skin on your face, please?"

Old Master Chi, "..." Oh, ho, ho. How infuriating! Normally, Old Master Chi would have spat at this damned old man back at his face. However, for the sake of his grandson and his adorable future great-grandson today, Old Master Chi must hold himself back!

Old Master Chi made up his mind and laughed out loud. "Old Man Nangong, what are you talking about? You're making me feel like we're the villain here. Based on my personality, my second son's character, and Chi Yang's character, would Nuannuan ever suffer in our house?"

Old Master Nangong's eyes widened, and he huffed angrily, "Your family of wolves has probably taken full advantage of our Nuannuan, how dare you let her suffer after that? Old Man Chi, I'm warning you. If you dare to cause our Nuannuan any form of suffering, believe me when I say I'll blow up your house with my twenty-year-old grenade!"

Old Master Chi rolled his eyes. "Is a grenade kept for twenty years still usable? Don't try to trick me."

Seeing that Old Master Nangong was about to flip out and start a fight, Old Master Chi had no doubt that this damned old man would roll up his sleeves and start a fight with him in the coming second. He immediately straightened up and replied in a serious tone, "I assure you, you have nothing to worry about for Nuannuan to be at our house. I treat her like my own granddaughter. I treat Nuannuan better than how I treat Chi Yang! Mainly, that's because Nuannuan is sweet and docile. Everyone loves her! Anyone with the right mind will never think of bullying such a cute girl, right? Old Man Nangong, we haven't given her enough love!"

"Love her? If you love her, how can you stand letting her do it with a man before she's 18 years old? If you love her, how can you not be considerate toward her body? Old Man Chi, I set aside the pain of letting Nuannuan live here because I pity you. After all, your grandson spends most of his time in the special forces and there's a patient at home too. However, if this is what you're doing, don't doubt my words when I say that I'll ask Nuannuan to leave immediately!"

Old Master Chi started to get displeased. Nuannuan was already his granddaughter-in-law, so why must she leave just because Old Man Nangong asked her to? How could he say that?

Seeing that the two elders were about to break out into a fight, the 'conniving' Second Brother sitting in the wheelchair finally spoke up.

"Uncle Nangong, be at ease for Nuannuan to be in the Chi family. You and Dad were once soldiers, so you've always followed the military rules. Since Nuannuan and Chi Yang have already received the military base's approval, even if they don't have their marriage certificate yet, they're already as close as they can be.

"Nuannuan is Chi Yang's wife, the only lady in the entire Chi family. We'll love and cherish her as much as we love Chi Yang.

"Although Nuannuan isn't 18 years old yet, she's about to turn 18, isn't she? Nuannuan is an independent and opinionated girl. If you stop her, she'll listen to you out of filial piety but you'll never know what she's really thinking internally.

"Thus, Uncle Nangong, you should just let it go and give Nuannuan the control over her sweet life. The Nangong family is her maternal family. As her closest family, your frequent visits here and eating with her will help you express your care and concern for her. This is the best way to get along with everyone."
