Chapter 41: How can my wife be a fool?
Tang Li looked intently at her grandpa and asked "So, grandpa, tell me.What is this all about? Blind date and everything?Why is Yuhan's grandfather pretending to be sick? Was it your plan?"
Tang Cheng froze and his eyes turned wide in disbelief as he thought 'That old fool, he can't even act? He should have learnt it from me? What am I going to do now? I just met my dream couple and I can't infuriate them, right? Furthermore, it's all that old geezer's poor acting's fault.'
Grandpa Tang put an innocent expression on his face as he said "Xiao Yuhan's grandfather is my best friend.We four, that means your grandma, me, Yuhan's grandfather and his grandmother studied together in the same college.We betrothed both of you when you were just kids.It was always our dream to see you together.It was initially a surprise for both your grandmothers.But.."
Tang Cheng paused as his heart felt heavy when he mentioned Tang Li's grandmother.
Mo Yuhan and Tang Li were looking at him as they felt a twist in their hearts seeing Grandpa Tang's downcasted expression.
Grandpa Tang quickly smiled as he said "Your grandma passed away after what happened to your mother.But, Xiao Yuhan's grandmother is still there.That old monkey will not die anytime soon.She will run around everywhere when she comes to know about the both of you being together."
Tang Li was quite taken aback by how her grandpa was addressing Old Mrs.Mo.How come she didn't know that Tang Family has such close relations with Mo Family?
Mo Yuhan was also quite curious so he asked "Grandpa Tang, why has my grandpa never mentioned it to me?"
"The old man wanted to give you a surprise later on," replied Tang Cheng.
Tang Li was even more curious so she asked "Then, why was Mo Yuhan engaged to Meng Zhilan previously? Furthermore, why did you setup this blind date just now? You could have done it way before."
Mo Yuhan was also curious.If they were already betrothed then why did his grandfather let the engagement with Meng Zhilan happen?
Grandpa Cheng sighed.His granddaughter is so cunning.He coughed as he said "Well, that engagement with Meng girl was intentional.Xiao Yuhan was ready to marry anyone chosen by his family to continue Mo family to continue the family bloodline.And Meng family proposed for that marriage which was accepted by Yuhan's uncle and his father.He also agreed without any hesitation.So, his grandfather wanted to teach him a lesson.We both knew that Meng girl is unreasonable and stupid.So, that old man was waiting for the right time.When she tried to drug Yuhan, the engagement was called off and Yuhan declared that he will only marry the one he likes.His grandfather's goal was achieved by that."
Tang Li was speechless.These old men are truly scheming.
Mo Yuhan was in disbelief "So, grandpa tricked me that time?"
Grandpa Tang laughed heartily "Hehehe..Yes,my dear grandson.That old geezer tricked you."
The great business man, Tang Cheng sold his best friend off in such a righteous way!
Mo Yuhan sighed "Then, why did you never try to set up this blind date before?"
Grandpa Cheng's eyes turned dark as he said "After my daughter passed away, I sent my little princess abroad so that she could finish her studies.Later on, when she came back, she started living in solitude.She didn't like anyone's company.For whole three years, she isolated herself completely.Later on, she started managing Tang Corps which was completely destroyed.It took her years of hardwork to get where she is today.We tried to set both of you before but the timing was never correct."
Tang Li agreed to what her Grandpa said.She was always like this until she married Mo Yuhan.
Mo Yuhan looked at Grandpa Tang as he asked "You mean to say that Ash Corporation is the transformation of Tang Corporation? The Tang Corps which was completely hollow years ago?"
Grandpa Tang nodded "Indeed, it is!"
Mo Yuhan felt more and more proud of his wife.Tang Corporation had basically nothing when it was destroyed but now it rose from the ashes and is flying like a phoenix in the highest position.
Tang Li would never let her grandpa get away with it so easily.So, she asked "So, what about his grandfather's health? Why did he act?"
Grandpa Tang was stunned.She still remembers this.If he tells her that both of them had discussed and schemed for complete one day to make this blind date successful, his granddaughter will surely be infuriated.So, he self-righteously decided to sell his best friend out again.
He sighed "It's that old man.He called me and informed me about it and I just agreed with his plan.Look at me, I'm so innocent, do you think I can do all these things? It's that sly fox."
Tang Li gave him a 'You look more like a sly fox than anyone else' look.
Mo Yuhan already knew that both their grandfathers are partner in crimes in all these.So, he didn't ask anything else.
To change the topic and divert their attention, Grandpa Tang quickly asked "Now, tell me, how did the both of you end up getting married?"
The both of them explained about their marriage.Tang Li informed her grandpa about how they met and she proposed Mo Yuhan for marriage.
The old man was on cloud nine after listening everything.He was full of joys and spring as he said "Oh, my dear little princess, I used to think that you were muddleheaded and a fool.How come you proved me wrong? Did you hit your head somewhere before making such a wonderful decision of marrying Xiao Yuhan?"
Tang Li: "_" Am I your real granddaughter? Grandpa, did you realise that you just insulted me infront of my hubby? What will happen if he really thinks that I'm stupid?
Mo Yuhan's lips twitched.He was at a loss for words.He looked at the old man and said "How can my wife be a fool? She is the most intelligent and capable woman."
Tang Li smiled widely as she replied "And you are the best husband ever."
Grandpa Tang: ^_^ So happy...I'm so happy.Hehehe.I came to know about this way before everyone.Both those old geezers know nothing.That monkey Lihua will be shocked when she knows about this.
Mo Yuhan looked at him as he asked "Grandpa Tang, has my grandfather met Lili before?"
Grandpa Tang was speechless.His grandson-in-law is also this smart? He is going to have a hard time.
He was thinking of an idea but he couldn't find any.So, he decided to leave this matter to his friend.After Mo Huizong reveals it, he can say that he was just supporting his friend and nothing else.If he tells the truth now, maybe his granddaughter and grandson-in-law will get angry and run away!
He coughed as he said "What Grandpa Tang? Call me grandpa, my boy.By the way, this old man is not feeling good.I want to have some rest."
Though he didn't want to send them away, but he can't reveal everything right now.Or else, his granddaughter would probably never see his face for keeping so many secrets.He will reveal everything slowly and slowly.He acted as if his body was aching everywhere.
Tang Li and Mo Yuhan immediately stood up to support him, concern evident on their faces.
Grandpa Tang laughed heartily as he said "Seeing you both together has already made me a lot healthier.Don't worry this much.Go and have fun.I just need some rest."
Mo Yuhan said "Alright Grandpa, we will be going now."
Tang Li also nodded but suddenly she remembered something as she looked at the old man and narrowed her eyes dangerously.She smiled wickedly as she called "Mr.Tang!"
