Chapter 657: If You’re Sincere, Then Treat Her Well
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Qingxue could not handle the old prince’s enthusiasm. Seeing that he was still putting food on her plate despite his age, she quickly stood up and took it. Then, she kept looking in Rong Zhan’s direction with a pleading look.
Rong Zhan put down his chopsticks and looked at the old prince. “Grandfather, you can eat it yourself. Don’t worry about others, she will eat it herself.”
Hearing this, the old prince disapproved. He snorted and said, “That’s enough. I’m not forcing Eldest Miss Gu. Look at how distressed you are. Tsk, tsk, tsk. I can’t bear to watch it.”
Gu Qingxue was even more stunned by the old prince’s shocking words, and she almost choked on the food in her mouth.
“Oh… Cough, cough, cough, cough!” Gu Qingxue was so flustered. She felt that the old prince had a huge misunderstanding between her and Rong Zhan, and she really needed to explain it to Rong Zhan!
Rong Zhan was sitting on Gu Qingxue’s left today. Gu Qingxue was looking at him and kept winking at him, trying to get him to step forward and explain to the old prince.
However, Rong Zhan did not understand what Gu Qingxue was trying to say. Instead, he reached out and patted Gu Qingxue’s back to help her breathe.
“How could you be so careless?” Rong Zhan’s tone was filled with unconcealable worry. After saying this, he did not forget to scoop a bowl of soup for Gu Qingxue and put it in front of her.
Seeing that Rong Zhan had already picked up the spoon, Gu Qingxue suddenly had an extremely bad feeling. She quickly pulled Rong Zhan’s hands and pressed them down. She put on a fake smile and said, “Many thanks, Your Royal Highness. I’ll do it myself.”
Seeing that Gu Qingxue had actually taken the spoon from Rong Zhan and started eating, the old prince, who had been waiting to watch a good show, was disappointed.
He thought he would be able to watch a good show, but what a pity.
However, when the old prince saw this scene, his heart was filled with even more joy.
He understood his grandson the most. If his heart had not been moved, why would such an unromantic person like him be so interested in a woman?
Finally knowing that he would one day be able to see his granddaughter-in-law enter the family, the old prince’s mood was very good, and he even ate more than usual.
Only Gong Lingyu was sitting at the side with an unhappy expression. She looked enviously at Rong Zhan, who was able to sit beside Gu Qingxue.
She really envied her cousin. She also wanted to sit next to Sister Gu and help her pat her back when she choked!
Gong Lingyu’s heart was filled with desire, but there was nothing she could do. She could only lower her head with a resentful expression and continue to silently stuff food into her mouth.
After the meal, Gu Qingxue and Gong Lingyu took the four little cubs to bathe and change their clothes. Granny Sheng also helped Madam Qi leave.
Before Rong Zhan could leave, the old prince called out, “Don’t be in such a hurry to slip away. Sit down first. I have something to discuss with you.”
After Rong Zhan sat down, he looked at the old prince with a calm expression, as if he could read his mind. “Does Grandfather want to ask me about Qingxue?
Even though the old prince’s thoughts had been seen through, he still did not forget to put on a brave front. “Ask you? What’s the point of asking you? Look at yourself, you still call her Qingxue. Do you really think I don’t know what you’re thinking? I just want to remind you that Eldest Miss Gu was framed by her stepmother in her early years, so she went to that remote and poor place and suffered a lot. If you are sincere, then treat her well and capture Eldest Miss Gu’s heart as soon as possible. If you’re a step slower, others will take the opportunity..”
