Mrs. Lu, Mr. Lu will come back and spend the night tonight.

Shen Xingchen took Mrs. Shen's teachings to heart.

So for now, she is very well behaved.

Shen Xingchen agreed to his teachings. The old man's expression was not as serious as before. He then looked at Shen Li and said sarcastically, "Xingchen is still obedient, unlike some people who have no self-awareness at all."

"Others advised him, but he still argued."

"Xingchen, you must not learn those bad habits. When it comes to dating in the future, your great grandfather will choose the person for you. Don't consider anyone who is five years older than you, and don't agree to anyone who is 14 years older than you. Don't even take a look at yourself in the mirror."

"..." Shen Xingchen was speechless after hearing the old man's lecture.

What my great-grandfather said was a bit harsh, and it made my uncle lose face.

Mrs. Shen could understand that the old man did not agree to Xingchen and Shen Li being together, and she thought it was justifiable. But she was not happy that he disliked Shen Li so much and asked Shen Li to look at herself in the mirror.

After all, he is his own son. Besides, his son is not that bad. There are still many girls out there who like him.

After all, her son is capable and rich.

So, I looked at the old man and said, "Dad, you can't say that. Matters of love can't be measured by age."

The old man listened to this and said, "Why can't we use age as the measure? They are so much older, how can they talk to each other? If one dies early, Xingchen will still be a widow."

“……”Mrs. Shen.

Looking at the old man with an innocent face, Mrs. Shen was speechless after being confronted by him.

Seeing Madam Shen being criticized, Shen Xingchen said, "Grandfather, what my aunt said is not wrong. Love cannot be measured by age, but I will keep in mind what Grandfather taught me."

The old man listened to Shen Xingchen's words and asked her directly: "Then do you know who I'm talking about? Do you know what I'm referring to?"

Shen Xingchen agreed too quickly and too well. The old man always felt that it was a bit too easy, so he asked tentatively.

"..."

This time, it was Shen Xingchen who was speechless. The old man had said it so clearly, how could she not hear it and not know what was going on?

Shen Xingchen stared at the old man without blinking and didn't say anything. Madam Shen said beside him, "Dad, you just need to read out Shen Li's ID number. How could Xingchen not know who you are talking about and what you are talking about?"

Seeing that Madam Shen had spoken out about this matter in front of everyone, the old man became even more outspoken: "Although Shen Li is my grandson, and I have always hoped that he would get married and have children, and look forward to having a great-grandson, I am not so crazy as to agree to let him be with Xingchen."

Glancing at Shen Li indifferently, the old man added, "He is not worthy of Xingchen."

When the old man said "not worthy of him", Shen Li looked up at him.

At the same time, I was also heartbroken.

At this time, Shen Xingchen also turned to look at Shen Li, feeling aggrieved and sad for him.

However, the old man's words were really harsh, and if it was to be said, it was she who did not respect Shen Li, and it was she who was marrying above her station.

When the two of them were together, she had almost no advantage except that she was younger than Shen Li. She didn't even have parents or a complete family.

And her youth was not a scarce resource for Shen Li. With his conditions and status, it would be easy for him to find someone younger than her.

Beside the old man, the old lady saw that he had spoken harshly today, and that Mrs. Shen was unhappy about what he said. Shen Li was also her own grandson. She had not spoken a word all night, so she finally said, "Okay, let's eat, and we'll talk about it later."

The eldest grandson said nothing, but the old lady still felt distressed after all.

After she finished speaking, Madam Shen also said beside her: "Eat, let's eat first."

So, this little storm finally passed.

After dinner, the old man asked Shen Xingchen to play chess with him, and Shen Li was left aside and ignored.

In the living room, Shen Li took his laptop downstairs and sat cross-legged on the sofa to work. When he occasionally glanced towards the small living room, he saw how happily Shen Xingchen was getting along with the old man and the old lady, and how happy she was after winning the game. Shen Li raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.

Although the old man and the old lady do not agree with her being with Shen Xingchen yet, Shen Li actually doesn't mind.

Because the old man and the others' refusal did not put pressure on Xingchen, but instead directed the blame at him, despising him for being too old and not worthy of her.

Shen Li withdrew his doting look from Shen Xingchen. As long as she was happy, he felt much more at ease.

Compared to the disgust he heard and the things he would face in the future, Shen Li was more afraid that Shen Xingchen would be depressed like in the past few years. He was afraid that she would be unhappy and afraid that he would not see her smiling face.

To him, Shen Xingchen's feelings and happiness are the most important.

After a while, the phone rang. Shen Li needed to go to the study to deal with some documents, so he took his computer and went upstairs first.

Downstairs, the old man was still playing chess with Shen Xingchen.

Normally, he couldn't find an opponent when playing chess with those old men. Shen Xingchen had a sharp mind and her moves were varied, so the old man liked playing chess with her and found it challenging.

Until ten o'clock in the evening, the old man was still full of energy and asked for another plate.

Seeing this, Mrs. Shen said, "Dad, you don't need to rest. Xingchen has to go to work tomorrow and she needs to rest. Don't delay her rest time. Being a doctor is very hard."

"Besides, she has to take the postgraduate examination at the end of the year, and she has to read books and submit reports."

The old lady listened to Mrs. Shen's words and echoed, "You old man, you are like this. Every time you play chess, you always pull others to you. Let Xingchen go back and rest."

The old man listened to what Madam Shen and the old lady said, then he put down the chess piece and said, "No more, no more." He looked at Shen Xingchen again and said, "Xingchen, then you should go back and rest. You can play chess with Grandpa after you have rested."

Shen Xingchen stood up from his chair after sitting for a while until his butt was a little sore. "Grandpa, I'll go back to my room to take a shower and rest. I'll play with you tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, okay." Shen Xingchen said that he would play with him tomorrow, and the old man happily agreed.

moment.

When Shen Xingchen went back upstairs and finished her shower, she saw that Shen Li had not come to see her today and hadn't even sent her a message.

What happened to uncle?

Did she take seriously what she promised great grandfather and the others today?

She just agreed casually to please the old man and the old lady. She never thought about not being with him, never thought about it.

She cherished the opportunity to be with him.

Thinking about the harsh words the old man said at the dinner table today, Shen Xingchen used a hair dryer to dry his hair, and then quietly went to Shen Li's room.

After knocking gently on his room, Shen Xingchen opened the door when he heard Shen Li say he was in the room. He poked his head in with a smile on his face: "Uncle."
