Chapter 128 - Aren't You Shameless?

When Old Man Lu heard Xiao Guan mentioned Xiao Mei's name, he wanted to laugh out loud but he managed to hold himself.

Trying to maintain his poker face, Old Man Lu decided to cough a couple of times.

"Your daughter? Who is your daughter? Did something happen to your daughter?"

Old Man Lu pretended.

Xiao Guan nodded. His face was full of grievance as he spoke.

"Elder might not know but a few months ago, my daughter ran away from home. She is a willful child and she doesn't like to listen to her parents.

I love my daughter very much so I decided to search for her. I arrived here in Beijing few days ago and I just found out that she was currently living with a man.

*sob* as her father, how can I allow my precious daughter to live with a man without my knowledge? Thus, I tried to separate them.

But when I saw my precious daughter crying, I could not continue to separate them and make my daughter feel miserable. I can only give my blessings and allow them to be together.

Elder, you might not be aware of it but the man my daughter is currently living with is none other than your second grandson.

I beseech you to grant my request and allow my precious daughter to marry into your family.

Elder, I, Xiao Guan only want my daughter's happiness. Please, give them your blessing."

Xiao Guan's eyes were full of tears.

He looked like he really cared for his daughter very much.

He stood up and kowtowed three times in front of Old Man Lu.

'I must convince Old Chairman Lu to allow Xiao Mei marry into the family immediately.

How can I waste the opportunity of having a good backer? Being in laws with Lu Family is better than being tied with Johnson Family.

As the father of the woman he likes, I believe that Lu MinDe will forget our previous animosity with each other.

No matter what, I am still Xiao Mei's dad. He must respect me as an elder!

The time for selecting the next head is near. After Xiao Mei marry Lu MinDe, I will let my daughter convince him to support me.

That's right!!

So in order to have the support of Lu Family, I must convince Old Chairman Lu!'

Xiao Guan inwardly sneered.

Xiao Mei was his daughter. She must help him get their family's legacy.

"Please, Elder! If father knew that Xiao Mei is living with a man without receiving a red book[1], my father would definitely feel brokenhearted.

Father pampers Xiao Mei and he might feel distress about her situation so I could only rely on Elder and ask for Elder's blessing."

Xiao Guan tried to look pitiful. If someone would see him right now, they would think that he truly loved his daughter and only wanted to give her happiness.

Unfortunately, Old Man Lu only saw him as a jumping clown, good for entertaining his boredom.

Old Man Lu wanted to roll on the ground and laugh while clutching his stomach but too bad, he must continue to pretend being oblivious if he wanted to play with Xiao Guan.

"Really?? Why didn't I know about my grandson's relationship??"

Old Man Lu's facial expressions were top notch. His face was full of different emotions.

Anger, shock, happiness and many more.

Xiao Guan was very convinced that he was really unaware of Xiao Mei's existence.

"Elder, forgive me for being rude. I know that requesting to let my daughter marry into your prestigious family is very shameless of me but I love my daughter very much. I can do anything for her.

Even if I disgrace myself in front of Elder, I will, as long as I can see her happy! Everything that I do is for her sake."

Old Man Lu mocked Xiao Guan inside his head.

'This man is very disgusting. Is he really that little girl's father??

Why is Xiao Mei very different from him?? Among the children of Xiao Xiao, this Xiao Guan is the most black hearted!

He can even use his own daughter for the sake of climbing up. Humpf! Too disgusting!! I must tell Xiao Xiao to exclude him in the selection. If this kind of man will become the next Patriarch of Xiao Family, for sure, it will be the end of their legacy.'

Although deep inside, Old Man Lu was loathing Xiao Guan, his face was still looking at him with pity in his eyes.

"Child, stand up. How can you kneel in front of me? If Xiao Xiao finds out that I did not help you, he will definitely get angry at me.

So child, tell me... What should we do regarding your daughter and my grandson's relationship?"

'Yes!! Hahahah! This old man is very easy to fool. Too bad that I discovered Lu MinDe's identity late or else I wouldn't have to shame myself and kneel in front of him.

But it's already too late to blame myself. It's good that I can still mend my relationship with that arrogant man. Humpf!! If it wasn't for his family's social status, I would never select him as my son in law. Robert is much more pleasing than that arrogant man.'

"Elder, please allow them to get married before my father comes. My father will get angry if he found out that her precious granddaughter has been living with a man outside marriage."

'Aren't you shameless? You are even using your father and daughter's name to get what you want.'

Old Man Lu wanted to curse Xiao Guan but he still nodded his head.

"Indeed... You are right."

Xiao Guan's eyes shone when he heard Old Man Lu's words but he tried to contain his emotions.

Unfortunately, his eyes betrayed him.

Old Man Lu wanted to roll his eyes.

"You are right... But..."
