Chapter 129: Introducing Men

Translator: _Min_

Song Ling’s expression darkened instantly, recalling that he had once asked such a foolish question himself.

Song An, oblivious to Song Ling’s change in mood, glared at Wang Lan as he retorted, “Why would Daidai ever need to steal secrets? Our Song family couldn’t even begin to compare to the Gu family back in the day. She has no reason to engage in such meaningless actions!”

Pausing for a moment, Song An continued, “If Daidai really wanted to know, all she’d have to do is ask me, and I’d have someone brief every detail about the Song family to her.”

Song An’s casual words had the impact of a stone thrown into a placid lake; everyone present froze, stunned by the implications.

It was as if his statement served as a pair of slaps across the faces of Song Ling and Wang Lan, who had accused Gu Dai of stealing secrets.

Snapping back to reality, Gu Dai’s eyes brimmed with tears. She tilted her head back slightly to keep them from falling and softly said to Song An, “Thank you, Grandpa. But I wouldn’t engage in such activities. The reason 1 didn’t reveal my identity over the past three years is due to certain unforeseen circumstances.”

Nodding, Song An proceeded to ask the question he had long been contemplating, “Daidai, would you consider becoming my granddaughter?”

Gu Dai was taken aback. She had initially thought that Song An wanted to adopt her as his granddaughter merely to protect her from being belittled. She hadn’t expected him to raise the question again.

Noticing Gu Dai’s confusion, Song An quickly clarified, “Daidai, 1 didn’t say this on a whim. In fact, I’ve been contemplating it for some time.”

Song Ling furrowed his eyebrows, “Grandpa, how could Gu Dai become your granddaughter?”

Song An snorted coldly and retorted, “Why can’t Daidai be my granddaughter? You had such a wonderful wife and you didn’t cherish her. If 1 no longer have a granddaughter-in-law, why can’t 1 have Daidai as my granddaughter instead? If she agrees, she’ll be your sister!”

Song Ling’s face darkened, “Grandpa, this…”

Song An completely disregarded Song Ling’s comment, lost in his own thoughts. He even went so far as to instruct him, “So, if you meet any exceptional men in the future, remember to introduce them to Daidai. On second thought, forget it. Knowing your questionable character, most of the men around you are likely the same. I’ll take it upon myself to find suitable men for her. By the way, Daidai, what type do you like? Aloof, lively, adorable…?”

Caught in the whirlwind of Song An’s rambling, Gu Dai was almost at a loss for words.

After he finished his spiel, Song An looked expectantly at Gu Dai, “What do you think, Daidai?”

Song Yu felt her blood boil as she listened to Song An’s rambling. She was the biological granddaughter, yet her grandfather had never introduced her to any outstanding men. Now, he was planning to do that for Gu Dai. By all rights, these resources should have been hers!

Song Ling’s brows furrowed deeper as he couldn’t help but say, “Grandpa, is it appropriate for you to be introducing men to Gu Dai? She was your daughter-in-law!”

Song An snorted coldly, “That’s precisely why it’s appropriate. She’s divorced now and perfectly free to meet new people, unlike sticking with her ex-husband who was too blind to see her worth!”

Having come to this realization, Song An found it increasingly difficult to look at Song Ling without irritation. He felt that Song Ling was utterly undeserving of Gu Dai. In fact, he considered it to be Song Ling’s good fortune to have been favored by Gu Dai in the first place.

Anger clenched Song Ling’s fists, but he swallowed down the resentment. After all, the man in front of him was Song An.

Noticing Song Ling’s discontent, Gu Dai couldn’t help but feel particularly pleased.

She knew that if she agreed to become Song An’s granddaughter, it would only infuriate Song Ling even more. However, she wasn’t inclined to do so. Accepting the title would inevitably lead to more interactions with Song Ling, something she was not looking forward to.

“I’m sorry, Grandpa. 1 want to focus on my work for now and consider romantic relationships later. Also, I can’t become your granddaughter,” Gu Dai apologetically said.

Song An sighed softly. He could guess the reason behind Gu Dai’s refusal but chose not to press her. “It’s okay, Daidai. In my heart, you’ve always been like a true granddaughter, and that won’t change.”

Nodding, Gu Dai took hold of Song An’s hand and softly said, “Grandpa, I’ll come to visit you often..”
