CHAPTER 229: CHAPTER 229: ANOTHER BLIND DATE FOR HIM

When I was sixteen or seventeen, still rebellious, she would call me "Uncle," and I wasn’t happy about it. I’d turn around and yell at her, "Don’t call me Uncle anymore! Call me Brother, got it? You’re making me sound old!"

"But I think calling you Uncle sounds nicer!" Her little lips would pout, her big jet-black eyes blinking at me, making it hard for me to lose my temper.

"Whatever, just stop following me... I have plans with friends to play basketball!"

"Uncle, can I cheer for you? Everyone else has girls cheering for them, but you don’t!"

"You’re just a little kid, not like a girl. Don’t come, you’ll embarrass me."

"Uncle, I’m tired, can you carry me?"

"Uncle, that lady is so pretty, look at her!"

In my memories, her sweet, syrupy voice was like spring flowers, fragrant and lingering in the heart.

On the second day, Huo Yanting walked a little awkwardly. Yesterday, he climbed over a wall to find Lin Banxia and took a fall, completely ruining his aloof image.

After working all morning, Huo Yanting received a call from his grandmother, asking him to join her for lunch at noon.

Huo Yanting pressed his fingers to his brow. No doubt his grandmother had another big scene planned for him.

When Huo Yanting arrived at the restaurant, sure enough, in the private room, besides Mrs. Huo sat a delicate and beautiful young lady.

This young lady was none other than the ever-devoted Chu Tingting.

Chu Tingting’s gentle eyes lingered on Huo Yanting from the moment he walked in, unwilling to look away.

Time had honed the man’s charm to an irresistible appeal. It’s believed that any woman who met Huo Yanting would be drawn to his inherent nobility and charisma.

His tall, upright figure exuded masculinity and a sense of strength, capable of shattering any woman’s heart and making them fall completely.

"Yan Ting... you’re here!" Chu Tingting’s voice was as sweet as wine, her bashful, smiling eyes sparkling like a lovestruck flower basking in the sea of love.

"You’re here too?" Although Huo Yanting had long guessed she’d be present, facing her enthusiastic demeanor now, he couldn’t quite manage to keep his face cold. Reluctantly, he maintained his politeness and courtesy.

Mrs. Huo, on the other hand, looked deeply satisfied. Glancing at her outstanding eldest grandson and the charming Chu Family’s Second Miss sitting beside him, the more she looked, the more perfect they seemed together, the more pleased she grew.

"Yan Ting, about that ridiculous business with Lin Banxia earlier, I won’t keep pressing you on it. But you have to promise me from now on to get along well with Tingting." Mrs. Huo fixed her gaze on her grandson with authority and gave her command.

Huo Yanting knew he had upset his grandmother quite a bit in the recent past. At this moment, he didn’t want to outright refuse her small wish. He simply responded with a faint smile, "Grandma, Tingting and I have known each other since childhood and have always gotten along well."

Chu Tingting pursed her lips into a smile and bashfully chimed in, "That’s right, Grandma. Yan Ting has always treated me kindly."

Mrs. Huo, understanding that her perceptive grandson was still leaving room in his words, directly clarified, "Yan Ting, have you not understood your grandmother’s meaning? When I say treat Tingting well, I mean I want you to agree to pursue her as your girlfriend. She’s your future wife."

Chu Tingting’s eyes widened in disbelief, and a trace of joy flashed across her face.

Even Huo Yanting hadn’t anticipated his grandmother would push so directly. Clearly, her obsession with having a grandchild had reached a fever pitch.
