Sweet Beauty

What a bad guy, he had done it all for himself. Han Yuanjun continued to glare at Qiao Hongya.

Luo Yanyun turned her head to look at Liang Zixuan, and the more she looked, the sadder she felt. Thinking back to the twenty years Liang Zixuan had spent in the Wei Family and now after all the hardship, she had finally met a man like Han Yuanjun, Luo Yanyun took a deep breath and said, "I..I don't disagree with your marriage. I...I was just afraid that Zixuan would follow her mother's path. I...I already lost a daughter, I can't...I can't just watch my granddaughter suffer. Xiao Han, I'm not saying that you have to promise me anything, I... I just…"

Liang Zixuan put down her chopsticks and hugged Luo Yanyun sadly. Thinking of her mother, her eyes turned red.

Han Yuanjun nodded in understanding. "Grandmother, I know your worries, and I won't promise you anything. I can only say that my upbringing is very strict, especially in matters between men and women. Otherwise, I will not have a girlfriend until I am thirty. Zixuan is ten years younger than me, I will properly love her and protect her and not let her suffer even the slightest bit. Even if there's some conflict between our personalities in the future, I still won't let her go. Grandmother, please rest assured of this."

"Alright." Luo Yanyun sniffled sadly. "Then you can promise me one thing. If your feelings become any weaker in the future, tell her immediately and don't continue hurting her. Please separate yourselves from each other. I don't want to see her mother's path in her life."

Luo Yanyun was truly afraid for her granddaughter.

Although Han Yuanjun felt that such a thing would never happen, he still agreed to Luo Yanyun's request. "Alright, grandmother. I promise you."

Luo Yanyun raised her head to look at Liang Zixuan. "Zixuan, what about you? Do you agree with it?"

Liang Zixuan closed her eyes in discomfort and nodded strongly. "I promise, I won't follow my mother's path."

Luo Yanyun then wiped her tears away and came out of Liang Zixuan's embrace, picking up her chopsticks. "Alright then. When are you guys planning to engage? Tell me."

Qiao Hongya stood up happily and ran out of the room. Not long later, he returned with a bottle of red wine in his hand. "Since everyone is happy, we should celebrate!"

Luo Yanyun: "..."

Liang Zixuan: "..."

Han Yuanjun: "..."

'You are the one who is happy about everything!'

Who didn't notice that he had messed up everything for Han Yuanjun? Wasn't it just to make Luo Yanyun stay here so that he can keep pestering her every day?

After dinner, Han Yuanjun carried Qiao Hongya's luggage downstairs.

Qiao Hongya was so scared that he quickly stopped him. "Jun, what are you doing?"

Han Yuanjun looked at him gloomily. "I told you to go back to America!"

"No way!" Qiao Hongya squatted down and hugged his luggage tightly like a monkey. "I'm not going back, I'm going to stay here!"

Han Yuanjun ignored him and dragged the luggage out the door. "You can come back after I get married!"

"Wait, wait, Jun!" Qiao Hongya shouted. "I still have to teach Zixuan. You can't kick me out!"

Han Yuanjun stopped walking and looked at him coldly. "You can teach her when you come back. No need to be in a hurry either!"

"That won't do!" Qiao Hongya stood up and directly held Han Yuanjun's arm. At such an age, for the sake of love, he can't leave. He shamelessly said, "I will slowly analyze this matter with you."

Han Yuanjun raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

"Think about it, Luo Yanyun is already that old. If Zixuan marries you, she won't feel at ease leaving her grandmother alone and she might come here every day. If Luo Yanyun falls sick, Zixuan probably won't be going back to live with you until her grandmother gets better, but if I was here, I could take care of her grandmother. If I become Zixuan's grandfather, wouldn't she be more at ease living with you?"

Han Yuanjun snorted. "I can find two nannies to do these things too."

"Jun." Qiao Hongya pouted pitifully. "How could a nanny take care of her with the best? Furthermore, it took me so much effort to find her. Do you really have the heart to separate us? As the saying goes, it would be better to destroy a temple than to destroy a marriage!¹."

Han Yuanjun was so angry that he started laughing. "Grandmother never said she wanted to be with you."

Qiao Hongya leaned his head on Han Yuanjun's shoulder like a sad old man. "I'm trying hard! Think about it, if Liang Zixuan had a grandfather like me, she would be able to stand straight when she goes out in the future."

Seeing that Han Yuanjun was about to open his mouth to object, Qiao Hongya quickly said, "I know, with you as her husband, she can still stand tall and straight, but if there's one more person who loves her and protects her, what's wrong with that?"

Han Yuanjun did not really want to send Qiao Hongya back to the United States, he was just scaring him.

"Then, can you guarantee that you won't undermine my relationship in the future by putting your interests first?"

Qiao Hongya immediately stood up. "I promise! Everything I do in the future, I will put your interests first!"

Han Yuanjun chuckled lowly, picked up the luggage from the floor, and headed upstairs. "Grandpa Qiao, remember what you said today!"

Qiao Hongya looked at Han Yuanjun's back and realized that this brat had tricked him. He gritted his teeth in anger. "Good boy, even me being bullied by you!" 

Three days before the recording of "I'm a Singer", Liang Zixuan began packing her luggage. She had to go two days early and talk to the band in the program team, then Qin Yu would arrive the day after and participate in rehearsals.

The night before her departure, she said to Qiao Hongya in front of Luo Yanyun, "Grandpa Qiao, I will go to Shenzhen in the next few days, so I will need your help to take care of my grandmother."

Qiao Hongya felt that Liang Zixuan was a very sensible child. He liked her more and more, so he happily agreed. "Don't worry, I will do my best to take care of your grandmother. You can go."

Luo Yanyun pulled Liang Zixuan's hand under the table in embarrassment.

Liang Zixuan smiled. "Grandmother, Han Yuanjun, has been very busy these few days. I'm afraid he doesn't have time to accompany you, only Grandpa Qiao is free."

Han Yuanjun put down his chopsticks. "I'm indeed very busy, but I'll accompany you there tomorrow."

"You're accompanying me?" Liang Zixuan asked in surprise. "Don't you have a work?"
