Chapter 1569 “General Ling Kaiyuan’s Birthday (8)”

“Yan Yan sure have grown compared to her old child self. She’s so mature now. But then you are still the focus of the crowd whenever you come. I remember when I first got a glimpse of you I was wowed by your cute and adorableness. If only you weren’t my daughter’s niece, then you would be able to become my granddaughter.” Ling Kaiyuan’s boisterous laugh was refreshing and lively in this moment.

“Dad!” Ling Yun got all sweaty in the face like an embarrassed son. He doesn’t want his old man’s words to scare away the lady who only just arrived.

“Am I wrong? Back then this lass was a real eyecatcher. When little Ling Lang saw her, the first thing he did was cry to everyone saying he will marry her and make Yan Yan his wife. But this isn’t old society anymore so marrying members of their own family isn’t allowed anymore, otherwise the babies will be born mentally handicapped.”

The old general didn’t let up though after spouting all that and huffed a few more grunts, “Oh why does it have to be this way. If only Yan Yan isn’t Ran Ran’s niece, then I would be able to take her as my granddaughter-in-law. What a pity, what a pity....”

This time it’s no longer just Ling Yun who got all black and awkward anymore, Bai Yan as well was making a what the hell face.

“Dad, I’m rather glad Yan Yan is my niece. It’s not like you don’t know my son’s personality. If we put Yan Yan with him then wouldn’t be the same as ruining her? Yan Yan just came so don’t scare her. What if she makes a run for it because of what you say?” Bai Ran really does worry about this because her hand had already grasped onto Bai Yan’s sleeve in case the girl makes a run for it.

Ling Kaiyuan just scoffs another laugh like it’s not a problem: “I’m only joking, just a hoke. Oh right, I still need to introduce her to everyone. Attention please, attention please! This is my daughter-in-law’s niece, and next to her is her son. Don’t get any idea about them alright, otherwise I will be the first to disagree.”

Originally some of those nearby were already getting funny ideas, but after the old general’s introduction and the warning underneath, they immediately lost the idea. For them who are after wealth and power, taking in a mother and her child was nothing especially hard in their view. Just another mouth to feed.

“Come, come, come,” Ling Kaiyuan smiles and wave for Bai Yan and the steambun over.

Though a little taken aback by the behavior, Bai Yan nevertheless went ahead to move forward. She didn’t have the heart to refuse such a loving and silly old man.

“Yan Yan, please go ahead and call me grandpa from now on like Ling Lang that rascal does. Grandpa here doesn’t have anything special for our first meeting so I can only give you this. It’s a jade, I do hope you like it.”

In an instant, Bai Yan suddenly found the world to be extremely small after seeing the jade in question. Unlike the others who showed envious looks when staring at the precious object, she on the other hand recognizes it!

A few days ago, she had only just arrived back on Earth and needed money. In order to remedy the issue, she specifically sold a jade in her possession to Ling Lang to use as a present for the old grandpa. As a result of that, the old general would on multiple occasions flaunt the precious trinket to his peers and made all his friends envious.

“Oh Yan Yan, some time ago Smile almost got hurt.” The old general then points to his son and daughter, “These two wanted to hide that incident from me, thinking I would get too worried. They really think I wouldn’t find out? I may be old, but not useless. I know you’re the one who saved Smile. I have nothing but thanks to you. This jade, I cherish it greatly, but compared to my grandchild’s life, I can’t think of anything more valuable to give.”
