Chapter 486: For Love
Lu Chen had it with the two. They're going to ruin my suit! And being the center of attention was just...embarrassing. Everyone stared at him.
"Sorry." "My bad." The two elders apologized. But Lu Chen sighed,
"You shouldn't be apologizing to me but to your granddaughters. You understand that your words implied I would marry them." Lu Chen could only look up and grab his head. He glanced at the surroundings; they were making quite a fuss about this.
"But you guys will make a great couple." "You're interesting as well." Contrary to what Lu Chen thought, the two elders were serious!
It seemed that today was the season for surprises!
Huang Mingyue and Bai Xiaoqing finally reacted as their faces blushed.
The two only saw Lu Chen a few times, but the two thought he would be great.
Lu Chen shook his head, "Even if you two elders want me to marry your granddaughters, I won't marry them."
"..." Another shocker was dropped on them.
Huang Mingyue and Bai Xiaoqing looked at Lu Chen in surprise. Never once have they been rejected. Well, it was them doing all of the rejections.
But hearing them being rejected like that was odd. They were proud phoenixes. They had it all; looks, background, and smarts.
Huang Muyang and Bai Geming frowned, "Tell us why you don't want to marry our granddaughters."
They have never had a situation like this. When they talked with others, they would praise their granddaughters, telling them how envious they were. What was more, there were marriage proposals flying in droves.
And they rejected all of them. Yet, this person in front was the one who said no to them.
Lu Chen explained, "I mean no disrespect. However, if I'm going to be with someone, I want it to be for love."
Love?
Bai Geming and Huang Xiaotong questioned in their minds.
Lu Chen nodded, "If I marry someone for their looks and wealth, that marriage is nothing more than a ticking time bomb." He knew: once that was gone, that marriage was nothing more than a sham.
"..."
"I don't want to have that. I want to cherish the one I love and care for her for the rest of my life. And I hope she will do the same for me too."
Lu Chen understood this for a while now.
He learned this the hard way from Liu Fei Fei. The only way Lu Chen could have a happy life was with someone who loved him the same way.
The two elders were speechless by his words. The two girls looked at Lu Chen too. There was an indescribable feeling brought about by his words.
Heck! The four weren't the only ones as the other people around gave Lu Chen a weird gaze.
Dream guy. That was what the girls described Lu Chen as. If he got the background, looks, and pedigree,
He had the heart too. Every girl wanted to marry someone out of love too. And that man was the same.
Song Yanmei looked at Lu Chen in awe. Wait, with all that flirty with me..does that mean what I think it means? Remembering how playful Lu Chen was to her, Song Yanmei's face turned red.
"...Pff hahaha!" Bai Geming laughed out loud! Huang Muyang followed suit.
"Is there something wrong?" Lu Chen tilted his head, frowning at what they did.
"It's been a while since I heard someone say something like this."
"Indeed." Lu Chen was an interesting person, to say the least.
Lu Chen sighed. He was finished with that. And now,
"And now we have this jade."
