Chapter 683: Collateral Damage
“Grandpa, Nuannuan.”
Zhong Nuannuan walked out of the car first, then the two of them helped Old Master out.
Initially, the old master asked the guards to follow him in for a meal, but he told them to take turns to eat and to guard the car. After all, there was an imperial jade here worth five billion yuan and high-quality jade that had yet to be mined. He could not allow these things worth billions to be stolen by thieves.
“What happened?” Chi Yang could not help but ask when he saw how protective the old master was toward the car.
Then, the old master recounted everything that had happened at Soaring Clouds Pavilion.
The expression on Chi Yang’s face darkened.
After hearing that, he quickly pulled Nuannuan’s hand up and examined the soft tissues and bones on her hand and arm. Then he squatted down and pinched the soft tissues and bones on her legs. Seeing that Nuannuan did not cry out in pain, he stood up again and asked with a worried expression, “Little Girl, are you alright?”
Nuannuan looked at Chi Yang’s worried face and felt her heart filled with happiness. She shook her head and said, “Big Brother Chi Yang, I’m fine, I’m fine! She’s the one who’s not fine! Didn’t you hear Grandpa say that she was sent into the pond twice?”
After saying that, Nuannuan waved her little fist proudly in front of Chi Yang, like a little kitten waving its furry paw to show off to its owner that it had beaten a cowardly dog.
Chi Yang could not help but pet her head after seeing her like that. If it was not for the fact that his grandfather was there, he would have already kissed her.
This little lass of his was so cute even when she was mad.
Even so, standing in front of the two of them and looking at the two lovebirds, the old master felt both happy and embarrassed.
He had never seen his grandson treat anyone so well.
This was especially so for girls. No matter what type of girls he faced, he often maintained a cold expression on his face. Unless it was a female military officer that he had to communicate with, he would not even look at them. Even if someone was within his one-meter radius, he would fully unleash his aura and fill his face with displeasure. It scared the girls so much that they could never dare to approach him even if they wanted to.
The old master nearly thought that those old things were right—that his grandson really disliked women and had fallen in love with that Ning Wenhao who was always with him.
(Ning Wenhao sneezed violently, indicating that he had no idea!)
He did not expect his grandson who was usually mean to girls to be so gentle in front of Nuannuan that he could rub her fingers for her. The old master felt like he was a gigantic third wheel, but at the same time, he was very pleased.
After making sure that his little wife was fine, Chi Yang said, “You don’t have to worry about Ling Pinyuan anymore. I’ll talk to her tomorrow and make her give up completely. I promise she won’t hurt you anymore.”
Nuannuan pursed her lips. “She’s your colleague. You can’t beat or scold her. You’re so outstanding. Perhaps she wants to attempt to go to the graves just to compete with me like Ou Mingxi?”
Looking at Nuannuan’s depressed look, Chi Yang could not help but chuckle.
“Are you jealous?”
Seeing how happy Chi Yang was, Nuannuan felt even more depressed. She pouted. “What do you think?”
“I’m so happy to finally see my Nuannuan so jealous.” Chi Yang turned to the old master before Zhong Nuannuan could say anything else. “Grandpa, let’s all go in.”
Old Master’s heart was glad to see the couple fight-flirting.
