Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

No matter what, the issue was finally resolved.

In the car, Ning Xi was prepared to call her grandfather to report the situation to him. However, before she called, she still felt troubled.

Sigh, even though she and Xi Shiqing had already discussed what to say to each otherʼs grandfathers, what if her grandfather refused to give up?

”Hello, Grandfather!”

”Hey, Xiao Xi! Have you met up with the grandson of the Xi family already? How was it? Heʼs not too bad, isnʼt he?”

”Cough, Grandfather, heʼs not too shabby. But he wasnʼt interested in me!” Ning Xi answered.

”What are you saying? That kid wasnʼt interested in you?” the elder asked agitatedly.

”No, Grandfather, what I mean is that the both of us arenʼt interested in each other. Please donʼt try to match us together anymore!” Ning Xi played out the explanation she and Xi Shiqing had agreed upon.

On the other end of the phone, the elder sounded very disappointed. ”How could this be? I even met up with him first. He doesnʼt have any disabilities and he looks like a talented young man before I was satisfied enough to let him meet you for a blind date. You donʼt like someone like him? Then, tell me whatʼs your type, Iʼll help you look again! I still have another old friend. His grandson...”

Oh no...

Ning Xi buried her face in her hands. ”Grandfather, donʼt! Grandfather, I really donʼt want to look for a partner right now!”

”Xiao Xi, trust me, I was once in your shoes. Youʼre at the best age right now. Now is the best time to look for the ideal man. In fact...”

Ning Xi was suffering from a headache when she felt a warm presence beside her. Lu Tingxiao had suddenly sidled up to her and said softly into her ear, ”Tell your grandfather that your boss doesnʼt allow you to date.”

Ning Xi was astonished. She covered the mouthpiece of her handphone to ask Lu Tingxiao, ”What?”

”Didnʼt Ling Zhizhi tell you? In your current situation, you canʼt get a boyfriend,” Lu Tingxiao said without skipping a beat.

Ning Xiʼs eyes shone when she heard his suggestion. ”Right! Thatʼs a pretty good reason!”

Lu Jingli, who was driving, heard this and mumbled, ”Haha, right, your boss doesnʼt allow you to date. He will only allow you to date with the boss himself...”

”Grandfather, I only want to perform well in my job right now. Besides, Iʼm in the growing phase of my career and our company wonʼt allow me to date!”

The elder was angry when he heard this. ”What? Not allowed to date? Why would there be such a company with such a silly rule? Does your boss even understand what human rights are?”

Ning Xi shot a look at Lu Tingxiao who had to take the bullet for her. ”Grandfather, everyone in our industry is in the same boat. If we have boyfriends, the number of fans will drop drastically. In fact, Iʼve just opened up my own studio and will be very busy every day. Next month, I will start promoting my new show and Iʼll have to run around the country. Then, once Iʼm done with that, Iʼll start shooting for a new show. I really donʼt have the time!”

Ning Zhiyuan had wanted to mention her joining the company, but from the way she lay everything out, he knew there wasnʼt a possibility. Even though he felt regretful, hearing how his beloved granddaughter had her own successful career today and was living life to the fullest made him feel very happy.

”Then, whatʼs going to happen to my great grandchildren? When can I have some?”

When she heard the elderʼs sad sigh, Ning Xi touched the little bunʼs head and sighed internally too.

If only the little bun was my son, that would be great. Everything would be resolved.

”Grandfather, what if I got a test tube baby?”

Lu Tingxiao and Lu Jingli were stupified.

Little Treasure was surprised too, although he wondered to himself, ”Whatʼs a test tube baby?”
