From Sidekick to Bigshot

“Erm… Master Zhai… There is indeed such a girl… However, Master Sheng only sees her as his sister! Nothing more.” Yu Xi explained cautiously.

“Sister?! What do you mean by sister?! Our Zhai family is short of daughters-in-law! There’s no shortage of sisters! Furthermore, it’s not your place to say whether he sees her as nothing more than a sister or not!” Master Zhai growled out.

Yu Simiao and Yu Xi’s palms were sweating from Master Zhai’s growl.

Ah… Master Zhai and Master Sheng were at war… But they were just the innocent fish in the pond… They hadn’t done anything wrong!

“Where is she? Bring her over here!” Master Zhai ordered Yu Simiao and Yu Xi.

However, neither of them dared to respond.

“Why are you making things difficult for them? If I’m not interested in anyone, are you going to shove a girl into my arms or something?”

Zhai Yunsheng was still lying on the sofa. It appeared as though he might fall asleep at any moment.

“Yunsheng! You’re the only child in our family! Grandpa wants nothing more than for you to start a family early.”

“Well, I’m like this already. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll die on the night of my wedding?”

“What nonsense are you talking about!?” As soon as he heard Zhai Yunsheng speak of death, Master Zhai became furious.

However, Zhai Yunsheng was not frightened by his grandpa. Instead, Yu Simiao and Yu Xi were frightened. They were so scared that their legs went weak.

“What I said is the truth.”

“Don’t say those things!”

In front of Master Zhai, it was forbidden to associate the word ‘death’ with Zhai Yunsheng.

Zhai Yunsheng was not bothered to argue with Master Zhai. He squinted his eyes before he picked up a cup of strawberry frozen yogurt that was on the coffee table next to him. He scooped a bit up and put it into his mouth.

Master Zhai suddenly narrowed his eyes and noticed what Zhai Yunsheng was eating.

“Yunsheng, when did you begin eating these sour and sweet things?”

In his recollection, Master Zhai remembered that his grandson only liked eating meat. He generally avoided those sour and sweet things.

“Recently.” The little rabbit from next door had sent it over. And thus, even though he was reluctant to eat it, he still had to try.

It wasn’t too bad. However, it still wasn’t as good as meat.

Although he got a reply, Master Zhai still felt that something was off, “Why the sudden change of taste?”

“I got tired of eating meat.” Zhai Yunsheng answered. He didn’t reveal anything in his words.

Seeing that he couldn’t get anything out of Zhai Yunsheng’s mouth, Master Zhai turned around and continued to interrogate Yu Xi: “Where is the girl in that photo you sent me last time?”

“Umm… Master Zhai… Master Sheng really just sees her as a sister…”

“Well, even if he sees her as a sister, I still want to see what she is like.”

“This…” Yu Xi turned his head around to look at Zhai Yunsheng. Without Zhai Yunsheng’s permission, he did not dare to casually reveal information to Master Zhai.

Zhai Yunsheng looked up and decided to urge his grandpa to leave: “Stop asking about those matters. Why don’t you go back to the capital? If you stay here for longer, other people will find out. Soon, the flower gardens of the Yu Residence will be trampled to death.”

“How dare you talk about me?! Aren’t you still staying here as well? At first, you said that you wanted to go out for a break. You said that you’d only be gone for two weeks! How long has it been now? If you hadn’t stuck around for so long, would I have come here? Furthermore, I was asking Yu Xi to show me that girl. Don’t change the subject!”

Hmm… The more he talked about this, the more he felt that this matter was fishy.

“Well, she gets scared easily. You’ll scare her.” Zhai Yunsheng replied. He quickly found an excuse.

“Huh? I’ll scare her? Am I scary?”

Master Zhai turned his head to ask Yu Simiao, Yu Xi, and the bodyguards next to him: “You guys be the judge. Am I scary?”

All of them shook their heads in unison.

“See, I’m not scary. Don’t worry about it.”
