Chapter 724: Chapter 794: You Are Not Allowed to Leave

Zhu Huimin was furious. She had spiced up her tale quite a bit and even managed to push Fang Yi onto the opposing side of the aristocratic family. She thought her grandfather would be angry, but what was going on now? Not angry at all but, on the contrary, he seemed to really appreciate that guy.

Zhu Huimin was flabbergasted. She just couldn’t understand it at all. What happened to the expected anger? What happened to the promised lecture? Her grandfather was really not giving her any face, was he? Now Zhu Huimin truly understood what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot and to be outsmarted by one’s own cleverness.

Actually, what Zhu Huimin didn’t know was why her grandfather appreciated Fang Yi. The reason was simple—because Zhu Youde had risen from the lower echelons of society.

Back in the day, Zhu Youde had fought in the war, struggling step by step, fighting against landlords and powerful tycoons. He was genuinely grass-roots and understood how much courage a commoner needed to face the numerous aristocratic young masters.

Zhu Youde had done just that back then and now, Fang Yi was doing the same. How could Zhu Youde not appreciate him? So, the more Zhu Youde observed Fang Yi, the more he liked him.

With a smile, Zhu Youde glanced at Fang Yi and said, "It’s not impossible for you to ask me for a favor, Fang Yi. I’d be happy to help you, but there has to be some sort of reciprocity."

Fang Yi smiled, "I’m not sure what the elder wishes for."

"That depends on what kind of favor you’re asking for," Zhu Youde replied.

After pondering for a moment, Fang Yi said, "I would like the elder to grant me a marriage."

Zhu Youde was slightly taken aback, "Grant a marriage?"

Not only Zhu Youde but also Jian Rong and the others were astonished, especially the fiery Zhu Huimin, who glared at Fang Yi with eyes wide as if she had seen a ghost.

After a long while, Zhu Huimin screamed, "Grandfather, don’t agree to him!"

"Why can’t I agree?" Zhu Youde asked with a smile.

"Because... because..." Zhu Huimin’s eyes darted around before she hastily said, "Because he’s out to harm a decent woman—that’s right, he’s out to harm a decent woman!"

Fang Yi thought this sassy girl indeed had character, deliberately targeting him. He had guessed that it was probably because he had previously laid hands on her friend that she was doing so deliberately.
