Chapter 520: Is Brother Cheng that Good at Setting Up Traps Everyone
The old grandmother remained silent after the butler spoke. She did not look too well. Butler Lu was paralyzed with fear.
Looking at the two who were holding hands while coming down, the old grandmother could not help but smile. Her unfilial son had never been so open. It seemed like she would get a great grandchild soon. Pursing her lips, the old grandmother tried to suppress her uncontrollable emotions.
When the two arrived on the first floor, the old grandmother threw a cold glance at Lu Chengzhou before sitting on the sofa.
The butler signaled to the servants and he quickly turned to serve her tea.
The old grandmother took great care of her skin. Though her hair was gray, her complexion was like a child’s. Her charisma was outstanding and she had a scholar’s style, appearing elegant and intellectual.
Sitting on the sofa, her every move was demure and proper.
Lu Chengzhou brought Gu Mang over to her. “Granny.”
His grandmother refused to acknowledge him.
Gu Mang greeted politely, “Madam Lu.”
“Aye.” The old grandmother’s face changed instantly as she smiled widely and said in an affable manner, “Little girl, you’re regarding me as an outsider by calling me ‘Madam Lu’. Call me ‘Granny’ instead.”
Gu Mang was very respectful to the old grandmother. Outside, she was an international female hero and within the family, she was Lu Chengzhou’s grandmother.
Lu Chengzhou held her hand and pulled her back before bringing her to sit down on another sofa. She looked at him and could not comprehend what he was trying to do.
The old grandmother stared at Lu Chengzhou when she realized that he was unwilling to let the girl go.
When Lu Chengzhou sat down, he put his arm on the back of the sofa where Gu Mang was sitting. His wrist drooped naturally and his fingertips rested on her shoulders, making him appear languid.
He lifted his eyes slightly and looked at the old grandmother. “You didn’t even prepare a welcome gift and you want her to call you ‘Granny’?”
Gu Mang was slightly lost. “Welcome gift?”
Lu Chengzhou raised his eyebrows slightly and inched closer to her ears as he whispered, “Life isn’t easy. It’s great if we can earn more”
Gu Mang narrowed her eyes but remained expressionless. No matter who Lu Chengzhou was setting a trap for, he would do it with practiced ease.
The man turned to the old grandmother. “Granny, you’re in your seventies already, please don’t take advantage of young girls.”
“Do I need you to say that? Whatever other young girls have, our little girl must have too.” The more the old grandmother saw her grandson, the more she found him to be an eyesore. The moment she shifted her gaze to Gu Mang, her eyes softened.
She took out a red packet from her purse. The fabric of the red packet was made from cloth with gold threads woven into it. The fabric had a layered texture and the red packet seemed to be shaped like a pouch from ancient times. It was dark red and was adorned with a handmade true lover’s knot and tassels on both sides. In the bottom right corner, the word ‘Lu’ was embroidered in small seal calligraphy with gold threading.
Gu Mang took a look at the red packet and remained silent.
The old grandmother looked at Gu Mang and smiled amiably. “This red packet was designed by you for Lan Ting and Lan Ting provided it to the Lu family specially.”
Gu Mang nodded and thought for two seconds. “It’s the Lu family who invited Lan Ting to design it.”
“I didn’t expect you to be Lan Ting’s chief designer.” The old grandmother became more fond of Gu Mang as she looked at her. “The clothes that I wore to the parliament were designed by Lan Ting’s designer. Don’t you think we have great affinity?”
Gu Mang smiled and appeared obedient. “Yes.”
The old grandmother signaled to her. “Little girl, come and sit beside Granny.”
Lu Chengzhou hooked Gu Mang’s hand with his arm that was on her shoulders. He whispered into her other ear, “Go sit there.”
