Chapter 1348: Chapter 1343: Interact More with Qin Hao
"Help you get revenge?"
Hearing Jin Ni’Er’s pitiful voice, Elder Jin almost burst into tears.
You, this girl of mine, why did you go and provoke Qin Hao of all people? Isn’t this asking for trouble?
Do you think Qin Hao is someone you can provoke?
Now we are firm allies, we can only try to please him, understand?
While his mind was filled with complaints, Elder Jin outwardly frowned and said, "Ni’Er, Mr. Qin is now a distinguished guest of the Jin Family, you must be polite. Now, go and apologize to Mr. Qin."
Distinguished guest?
Apologize?
Jin Ni’Er didn’t expect this kind of response and froze in place.
It wasn’t until she heard Elder Jin’s dry cough that she snapped back to reality.
She looked at Elder Jin in disbelief, "Grandpa, what did you just say?"
"Go and apologize to Mr. Qin," Elder Jin repeated.
"I..." Jin Ni’Er’s delicate body trembled, feeling as if the sky was falling.
She is a proud person, and apologizing to him feels worse than death.
But, under Elder Jin’s pressure, Jin Ni’Er could only bow her proud head and say to Qin Hao, "I’m sorry, I was wrong..."
"Mm." Qin Hao responded very calmly. In truth, he hadn’t expected Old Jin to be so decisive and felt a bit embarrassed.
The calmer Qin Hao was, the more insulted Jin Ni’Er felt.
She hadn’t finished criticizing Qin Hao in her mind when she heard Elder Jin add, "Younger Brother Qin, you see, Ni’Er may have a bad temper, but she is willing to admit her mistakes. Considering her sincerity, wouldn’t you two communicate a bit?"
"Who wants to communicate with him!"
Jin Ni’Er was immediately displeased, though she thought, you like him, want me to apologize, fine, I’ll just apologize.
But, to make me feign friendship with this guy?
Sorry, this lady cannot do that!
"Ni’Er." Elder Jin could only persuade kindly, "You are soon going to enter the Cyan Cloud Secret Realm; if you don’t change this explosive temper, it’s easy to cause trouble. You should make friends with Young Friend Qin, so you can support each other later in the Secret Realm."
"Communicate? Support each other in the Secret Realm?"
Jin Ni’Er was startled awake and shouted in disbelief, "Grandpa! Why can this guy also go into the Secret Realm!"
"Because our Jin Family’s slot was given to him," Elder Jin said calmly.
"What about Brother Jin Mountain!" Jin Ni’Er asked, her face full of anxiety.
"Hmph! Don’t mention that unfilial grandson!" Elder Jin appeared annoyed, "If it weren’t for that unfilial grandson, we wouldn’t have misunderstood Young Friend Qin."
"Grandpa! He is your own grandson! How can you side with an outsider like this!"
Jin Ni’Er felt incredibly conflicted. In her grandfather’s eyes, aren’t their grandchildren less important than an outsider?
Elder Jin put on a stern face, "For me, anyone who can bring benefits and honor to the Jin Family is good."
At this point, he paused: "You grandchildren are too unruly. It’s only my fault for not disciplining you properly. From now on, Ni’Er, you should not act recklessly and communicate more with Young Friend Qin. Once you are in the Secret Realm, remember to follow Young Friend Qin’s lead."
"Grandpa!" Jin Ni’Er shouted, her face flushed with anger.
"Ni’Er!"
Elder Jin shouted louder than her, and under his stern expression, Jin Ni’Er could only surrender, lowering her head, tears pooling in her eyes.
"Young Friend Qin, I’m entrusting you with her."
Elder Jin patted Qin Hao’s shoulder, "Please guide Ni’Er onto the right path. Also, I wouldn’t mind marrying Ni’Er to you."
"Pfft!"
Before Qin Hao could say anything, Jin Ni’Er almost spat out blood.
She looked at Elder Jin full of sorrow and anger, "What kind of grandfather are you! First, you want me to apologize, then listen to him; now, you even want me to marry him? Grandpa, I’m telling you now, I’d rather marry a pig than..."
"Alright." Elder Jin interrupted, "Ni’Er, even if you are willing to marry, Young Friend Qin might not want to marry you."
"He doesn’t want to marry?" Jin Ni’Er found it amusing, "Grandpa, being able to marry me is the greatest blessing of their life! This jerk... guy wouldn’t want to marry me? What a joke!"
With that, she turned to the onlookers and shouted, "Do you want to marry me?"
Immediately, a crowd clamored.
"Yes! Absolutely yes!"
"Who wouldn’t want to marry Princess Jin, such a stunning beauty!"
"If I could marry Miss Jin, I’d be willing to live five years less!"
"Miss Jin, I’ve secretly liked you for a long time! Marry me!"
A wave of enthusiastic responses proved her allure.
Feeling proud about the reactions, Jin Ni’Er glanced at Qin Hao, as if to say, "See my charm, you lousy man."
Elder Jin smiled without commenting, also watching Qin Hao. He wanted to see how Qin Hao would handle this.
What he didn’t expect was for Qin Hao to merely nod slightly, "Miss Jin is stunning, her martial arts extraordinary combine that are like Hua Mulan and Diao Chan. It’s only natural for the world to admire her."
"It’s good you know. But you sound so formal, it’s weird." Despite loving flattery, Jin Ni’Er felt a bit better when praised, finding Qin Hao less annoying.
Qin Hao smiled and nodded. He has been rendered speechless by this odd grandfather-granddaughter pair and just wanted to hastily wrap things up and leave with Jiaying.
Seeing an opportunity arise, Qin Hao immediately cupped his fists and said, "Old Jin, you can send me a message on WeChat later regarding the Secret Realm. I just remembered I have something to deal with, so I’ll be leaving first."
"Young Friend, don’t be in such a rush, stay a while longer," Elder Jin said very warmly.
"No, no."
Qin Hao shook his head and refused, giving Qiao Jiaying a signal, he took Celestial Empress’s hand and walked out of the hall.
Seeing this scene, the other onlookers secretly clicked their tongues.
Ignoring Elder Jin’s invitation?
Brother, are you rushing to reincarnate or something? Is it that important!
Elder Jin saw Qin Hao was about to leave and suddenly had an idea; he said to Jin Ni’Er, "Quick, follow Young Friend Qin and communicate more."
"Grandpa, no!" Jin Ni’Er whined.
"Quick!" Elder Jin rushed, slapping the back of Jin Ni’Er’s head.
Bang!
Her back of the head ached, Jin Ni’Er was dumbfounded.
Grandpa hit me just now?
From childhood, Jin Ni’Er had never been hit, and this completely shattered her worldview.
This scoundrel! Is he worth this much respect, Grandpa? I’m your own granddaughter! You hit me for him! Are you even human!
Various wild thoughts rushed in her mind, and then Elder Jin’s angry voice came, "Ni’Er, if you don’t go, Grandpa won’t make you flower clam noodles in the future!"
"Grandpa! You know I love flower clam noodles the most! How can you be so heartless!" Jin Ni’Er cried out, deeply hurt, and seeing Elder Jin’s determined expression, she could only lower her head in grievance, "I’ll go, all right."
