Chapter 687: Borrowing Xin’s Hair To Become Long’s Lady

“Grandfather, I will!” Bai Jingrou suddenly broke into tears. She cried as though her heart was aching badly. “Grandfather, I, I’m so happy that you care so much for me!”

Long Jingyuan sat down by the bedside to embrace her. “Silly child, what are you crying for?”

“Grandfather, won’t you stay away from Fang Xinxin?” Bai Jingrou spoke in grievance. “You don’t know this. Although I’m the Bai family’s adopted daughter, all of them treat me as though I’m an outsider. You’re my only family right now. I don’t want Fang Xinxin to steal away your love for me too.”

She appeared to be like a child who was jealous.

Long Jingyuan rubbed her head lovingly. “Silly child. It’s true that Fang Xinxin and I hit it off well. However, you are my actual granddaughter. I’ll always dote on you the most. I understand the difference very well.”

‘But you aren’t promising to stay away from Fang Xinxin.’ Although Bai Jingrou thought this way internally, she understood that she could not go too far. “En, alright then.”

“Our Long Group has over a hundred years of history. You are the great Long Group’s only successor. You don’t need the Bai family on your side.” Long Jingyuan said, “In the future, the Long family is your actual home. Come by and stay here often.”

“Grandfather!” Bai Jingrou was in tears as she appeared deeply moved. In truth, however, she hated this old thing to the core.

Their relationship had been acknowledged for quite some time, but this old thing never brought her to the Long home to stay before this. As a result, she felt rather humiliated having to remain in the Bai family. Thankfully, this old man was finally giving in.

Living in the Bai family gave her the opportunities she needed to approach Bai Qinghao. She would not give up on it.

In the future, she would occupy both places.

Long Jingyuan watched as his only granddaughter cried. Logically speaking, his heart ought to ache deeply for her. However, he wasn’t sure why but something felt amiss.

“Grandfather, do you know?” Bai Jingrou brought up some things that were mentioned previously in the Bai family. “Back when my father was alive, he told me that you loved collecting antiques, and that you were especially fond of a particular antique sword from the Han Dynasty. He even said that you owned a jade ring that belonged to the Qing Dynasty’s Empress Dowager. He said that you only wore that ring once every month. He also said that you disliked eating onions and fish…”

She sobbed in tears. “Back when my father was alive, he remembered all of your likes and dislikes clearly. However, he regretted it deeply that he was never able to express his filial piety towards you. In the future, I will definitely help my father in taking good care of you.”

“Good, good.” After hearing these words, Long Jingyuan was reminded of his third son, Long Xuan. He was soon in tears as well.

He instructed his granddaughter to rest early before he left the room.

The moment he left, the tears on Bai Jingrou’s face stopped flowing. A hint of hatred flashed past her eyes.

She had temporarily gained control of this damned old man.

However, he was someone who kept his word. Since he mentioned that he would visit Fang Xinxin’s father, Long Yifan, another day, he would definitely do so.

The two of them were father and son.

Indeed, Long Yifan was the third son Long Jingyuan had chased out of the Long home that year.

The Long Group was powerful and had a hundred years of history. Yet, more than twenty years ago, the Long Family’s third son declared his intentions to marry into a common woman’s family to be their son-in-law.

At the time, Long Jingyuan was in his forties and had absolute control over his family. He also prioritised his face greatly.

Long Xuan had been seriously beaten up by the elder, yet he refused to change his mind.

Long Xuan had been given two options. First, to remain in the Long Family and to break up with the woman he loved, and second, to leave the Long family in order to remain with the woman he loved.

He chose the latter.

Afterwards, Long Xuan changed his name and became Long Yifan.
