Chapter 677 - A Date Show? (1/2)

Qin Haodong took this chance and went back. He told his mother about the current situation and asked her to receive Zhao Cangqiong, who was crafty and tricky. Then he hid in the room next to them, where he could see clearly what was taking place in the living room.

The other girls also did not want to meet Zhao Cangqiong, so they all went back to their own rooms.

Chu Xuanyue was the daughter of the Chu family and she was used to these sorts of events since she was a child. In addition, she had been in charge of the Haodong Group all these years, so she was good at dealing with such matters.

She sent someone to let Zhao Cangqiong’s motorcade in, then waited for him in front of the building.

“President Chu, you really have an amazing son. How could he be so brilliant at such a young age?”

Zhao Cangqiong got out of the car and did not seem to be dissatisfied with his rejection at all. He greeted Chu Xuanyue with such a bright smile that strangers might think they were really old friends who had not seen each other for years.

No one knew that there had been a fierce conflict between these two families merely a few hours ago.

“Master Zhao, you must be joking. It’s so good of you to come here. Please come in.”

Chu Xuanyue also greeted them politely and let Zhao Cangqiong and Zhao Feng into the house.

Chu Xuanyue asked someone to prepare tea and fruit, and then asked, “Master Zhao, what business are you here for?”

“Well, you’re being too polite,” Zhao Cangqiong said with a big smile, “I thought about what happened today when I got home and I realized that it’s really our fault, so I came to apologize.”

“There’s no need to apologize. It’s just a minor misunderstanding and we can just forget about the matter.”

Chu Xuanyue replied calmly. She knew very well that this cunning old man did not come here only to apologize.

“Thank you for forgiving me. But I am here today with a presumptuous request.”

Chu Xuanyue thought to herself, “I knew it, you old fox, would not come over for no reason.”

“Master Zhao, don’t hesitate to ask me for help. We will definitely help you as long as it’s not beyond our ability.”

“Well, President Chu, my granddaughter Zhao Qingwu is 20 years old and is really beautiful. I’m sure you’ve also met her. But we have not found a suitable husband for her yet.”

“After seeing your son today, I was shocked. I’ve never seen such an outstanding young man in my life and I really like him.”

“So I am here today to propose marriage. Could she marry Haodong? If that is possible, our two families will be relatives and we can get even closer in the future.”

This old man was hypocritical, but what he said seemed to be sincere. If a stranger heard his words, he would believe that this old man really appreciated Qin Haodong’s talent, and was willing to propose a marriage for his granddaughter.

Chu Xuanyue attended the engagement ceremony today, so she knew everything clearly. She understood what the motives behind his sudden changes were.

Qin Haodong was sitting in the next room and heard everything. He smiled bitterly when he heard Zhao Cangqiong’s purpose for coming over.

He had not expected Zhao Cangqiong to be so manipulative. He had just broken his grandson’s leg and even then, he immediately wanted to send his granddaughter to him. This old man was really cunning and he had to take him seriously.

A burst of fragrance swept into the room as Ye Qing suddenly appeared and asked, “What are you thinking, brother? Are you happy now? Someone is sending a wife to you.”

Qin Haodong said, “Why will I be happy? I’ve never seen Zhao Qingwu before and I don’t even know if she’s beautiful. What’s there to be happy about?”

“Well, I can tell you something about her.” Ye Qing said in a drunken manner, “Have you heard of the three beauties in the capital?”

Qin Haodong shook his head and said, “I just arrived and I don’t know anything.”

“Hahaha, nearly every man here has heard about them.” Ye Qing poked his forehead and said, “Zhao Qingwu is ranked first among the three beauties in the capital.”

“Zhao Qingwu is slight with a slender waist and long legs. She is particularly good at dancing. She’s known as Little Zhao Feiyan in the capital and has countless pursuers.”

“I did not expect Zhao Cangqiong would come here to propose marriage. He really wants to draw you over to his side.”

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Who are the other two beauties?”

Ye Qing explained, “There’s also Han Jieyu. She is just like a flower and is very considerate. Han Jieyu is worthy of her name.”

“The last one is Wei Yanran, who has a sweet smile. I’ve seen her before and she’s indeed very beautiful, but very few people have ever seen her smile.”

Qin Haodong had a general understanding of the three beauties after hearing Ye Qing’s introduction.

He then asked, “Sister, you’re so beautiful, why aren’t you among the top three beauties? Are they even more beautiful than you?”

Qi Waner had not been selected as one of the beauties because of her strange illness, which was understandable. But it was odd that Ye Qing had not been selected to be one of the three beauties.
