Return To The Past: I Won’t Choose Humility This Time! - Chapter 988

988 Annoying

If Hu Guo continued to pester them like this, it would only make the Zhou family’s impression of Hu Guo worse.

From what Yun Xi had said just now, Old Master Hu had also concluded from the bottom of his heart that Yun Xi was not simple.

Although he had experienced Yun Xi’s ability before, he could not help but admire Yun Xi’s impromptu reaction when he heard Yun Xi’s words. One had to know that Old Master Zhou was in a dilemma at that time.

It could be seen from the Zhou father and son’s performance just now that Old Master Zhou was not dissatisfied with Yun Xi’s words. There was even admiration in his eyes. He recognized Yun Xi’s identity from the bottom of his heart.

It seemed that the Zhou family would probably be handed over to Yun Xi in the future. This way, Yun Xi would be even more difficult to deal with. With the Zhou family backing her, Yun Xi’s own business could not be underestimated.

If Hu Guo wanted to enter the Zhou family, it would not be an easy matter.

Saying more now would make more mistakes. They still had to plan again. This was a tough battle.

However, thinking about the benefits of Hu Guo marrying into the Xia family, Old Master Hu felt that it was worth it to spend more time and energy.

Old Master Hu sized up Yun Xi. He felt that Yun Xi was still young after all. If he wanted to get rid of her, he would just have to spend more time.

Hu Guo looked at Old Master Hu angrily but did not dare to say anything. She did not understand why her grandfather, who had always doted on her, did not help her.

However, Hu Guo could only give up. She did not dare to disobey Old Master Hu.

While they were chatting, Yun Xi had already placed all the food on the small dining table.

These dishes were also carefully prepared by Yun Xi. She followed the doctor’s instructions and also took into account Old Master Zhou’s taste.

Hu Guo saw that she could not stay at the Zhou residence, so she wanted to perform well in other places.

Hu Guo looked at the dishes on the table and quickly went forward to say, “Grandpa Zhou, let me feed you.”

As Hu Guo spoke, she was about to pick up the food in front of her, but before her hand could touch the chopsticks, she was interrupted by Old Master Zhou. “No need. You’re a guest. How can I let you do it? Yun Xi and Zhou Lin are both here. How can I trouble the guests to take care of me?”

“I can still do such a small thing myself. You should just sit there and rest.”

Old Master Zhou’s seemingly teasing words were actually reminding Hu Guo that she was just a guest and an outsider.

After being rejected by Old Master Zhou, Hu Guo returned to her seat awkwardly, her hands clenched into fists.

Old Master Hu, who was sitting at the side, also understood what Old Master Zhou meant. He had already set his sights on Yun Xi and was warning Hu Guo that Yun Xi was a member of the Zhou family.

Hu Guo tried to steal a chicken but failed, only to suffer a loss. She had originally wanted to use this opportunity to stay at the Zhou residence and have a chance to take down Zhou Lin. He could also find an opportunity to separate Yun Xi and Zhou Lin.

Now, not only could she not stay at the Zhou residence, but he was also indirectly warned by Old Master Zhou.

Hu Guo’s face was full of tears. Once again, she blamed everything on Yun Xi, wishing that Yun Xi would disappear immediately.

Hu Guo could only sit awkwardly at the side. Even if she wanted to express her feelings, there was nothing she could do.

Old Master Zhou could not help but praise Yun Xi as he ate the food she had prepared. “Yunxi, how did you know that I like egg custard the most? ”

Yun Xi naturally knew. After all, she had observed Old Master Zhou’s eating habits before. Now that Old Master Zhou was sick and hospitalized, she needed to pay more attention to his diet.

Therefore, when she returned home just now, Yun Xi specially instructed the nanny to prepare egg custard for Old Master Zhou.

“Uncle, Zhou Lin told me all this.” Yun Xi smiled slightly and replied generously, “He said that you liked to eat egg custard when you were young, so I thought that since you were sick, you would definitely like this.”

Yun Xi’s words made Old Master Zhou laugh out loud. He did not expect Yun Xi to think about him so much even though he was sick.

The more harmonious the family was, the more unhappy Hu Guo was.

Hu Guo sat at the side and watched as everyone was amiable and had a beaming smile on their faces. He had just been vaguely warned by Old Master Zhou.

Hu Guo thought that since she could not get any benefits from Old Master Zhou, she turned her gaze to Zhou Lin, who had always been on her mind.

After all, the reason why he came to see Old Master Zhou was to see Zhou Lin. If she achieved her goal, she might be able to reach a higher level.
