The car quickly entered a quiet and beautiful villa, with many flowers and plants cultivated inside the large hillside villa. The plants were all pruned to form attractive shapes, filling the courtyard with fragrance.
In such a beautiful place, there was a shooting range that did not match the delicate flowers at all. An old man in casual clothes held a revolver in his hand, and with robust energy, he fired at the target a hundred meters away, hitting the bullseye with each shot.
Beyond the shooting range, there was also a golf course, a fitness swimming pool, fountains, and angelic sculptures.
The car stopped outside the shooting range, and two bodyguards helped Miss Rong open the door, “Miss Rong, the General is here, please wait a moment.”
Rong Yan got out of the car and stood outside the range, watching the gray-haired old man shoot seven or eight arrows with sharp marksmanship. He only placed the handgun on the servant’s tray nearby and wiped the sweat off his forehead with a towel, raising his eyebrows to glance at Rong Yan not far away, instructing the people beside him with a few words.
“Miss Rong, the General has finished his practice; you can go over now,” urged the bodyguard beside her at this time.
“Hmm,” Rong Yan took a step and walked towards the dignified old man.
The old man in front of her was at least seventy, with short, coarse, white hair, and facial outlines that faintly revealed his charming charisma from his youth.
However, with age, that charm had been replaced by the dignity and presence that comes with time.
Rong Yan recognized at a glance that this man was not of the same character as Lin Zhiya.
The elder in front of her was like a flamboyant cheetah, even a single look from him was full of a sense of oppression and aggression, far from the benevolence Lin Zhiya exuded.
But there were similarities between the two, which was the inherent nobility and gracefulness born from their lineage, an elegance that flowed in their blood and something Shi Mufeng could never possess!
Rong Yan approached and stood in front of the old man, and as a junior, she took the initiative to greet him politely, “Hello, I apologize for the intrusion today. I wasn’t sure what would be appropriate to bring, so I bought some tonics, hoping you would like them.”
The spirited old man took off the gloves on his hands and signaled his attendant with a glance. His attendant immediately with perceptiveness took the gifts from Rong Yan’s hands.
Next to them were seats for rest. He took the lead and sat in the principal seat, then patted the spot next to him, finally speaking to Rong Yan, “Miss Rong, please sit.”
Rong Yan went over and sat down where he indicated.
After she sat down, the imposing man finally spoke, “By generational hierarchy, you should be calling me ‘Grandfather’ along with Shengxiao.”
Rong Yan smartly didn’t respond.
What he meant by ‘should call’ implied there was no need to actually do so.
Additionally, given the cold, distant attitude the man had shown since she arrived, she wasn’t foolish enough to miss the sign that she wasn’t favored.
She disliked applying warmth where it would only meet cold indifference, especially when she knew it wouldn’t make any difference—so she was even less inclined to do so.
Her tactful silence, on the contrary, caused the shrewd old man’s eyes to narrow slightly as he spoke, “However, I did some checking on Miss Rong’s background. You were born into an ordinary family, your parents run a small company with decent income. But your father has an illegitimate son whom he recently brought home. Your mother has thrown all her attentions onto an orphan girl brought back by a friend, neglecting to care for you. Is that right?”
Without even a moment’s hesitation, Rong Yan nodded emphatically, “That’s right.”
Denial was pointless, as these things could easily be verified with a simple inquiry. Rather than deny, it was better to admit candidly!
