A Billion Dollar Exchange Chapter 300 I don’t know this woman

There was silence for a while as Liu Wei’s eyes reverted back to his grandfather’s. He was expressionless and no one could tell what he was thinking at the moment;

Liu Wei knew that for his grandfather to raise the issue of marriage; meant that he already knew of Da Xia, and he was in support of it.

”Okay ” came the reply after a long while;

Everyone in the room was stunned;

His reply came like a shock to the people in the to all of them; they were at first dumbfounded;

Was he saying that he would marry Da Xia? Why the sudden change all of a sudden?

”When do you propose I get married? ”

He asked again, this time looking excited;

Grandpa couldn’t ask him who the bride was and couldn’t opt for the bride to be Da Xia since the conversation had taken a wrong turn. He had expected him to be angry or at least flare up, so he would  command him to get married to Da Xia but he had just agreed to him; thus making him speechless;

”As soon as possible ”

He replied, and Liu Wei smiled;

”That’s great, I’ll bring my bride to meet you soon, you all would love her, she’s a really sweet person. ”

He replied; looking as calm as ever.

His father’s face was as red as paint;

”Ow? I thought she’s the bride? ”

Grandma, who was oblivious of everything, asked confusedly as she pointed at Da Xia, thus making the already awkward situation worse.

”I don’t know this woman, nor these people, and I’m surprised that my father, whom I hold in high esteem, stooped so low to force such indecorous woman into this family. I’m really short of words…”

”Liu Wei… careful!! ”

His father warned through his teeth, anger blaring through his eyes.

Liu Wei intentionally avoided eye contact with his father;

”Like I said, grandpa, I’ll bring you my woman, and I hope for your blessings…”

”This woman you speak about, who is she? ”

He cut in with a question; this time leaning back on the couch and looking calm, as though in control of the situation.

Liu Wei knew what he was driving at; he wanted to prove to him that such woman couldn’t be married into the Fa family, but he wasn’t going to let him have his way.

”You will know when you meet her. ”

He replied and stood up from the couch;

”Goodnight Grandma, goodnight grandpa, sleep well father…”

And with that, he walked out, not waiting for their response/.

The whole atmosphere was more awkward when Liu Wei left the scene. Da Xia, who had been clouded with shame from his words couldn’t stop the tears from falling down her eyes. How would he say such hurtful things to her?

Was she that hateful?

Grandma, seeing her crying pulled her into her arms and hugged her tenderly;

She consoled because she couldn’t bear to watch her cry, but deep down, her heart felt for her grandson. Something must have gone wrong somewhere for him not to even acknowledge them_ that, she must find out.

”Daughter, don’t cry anymore, you don’t need to waste any tears. He’s just beating about the bush because he has no choice. You are his wife already, just a little breaking of bones and he’ll come around.”

When Da Xia heard what grandpa said; a triumphant smile washed her features.

She was in! Finally!

Now she had grandma and grandpa on her side, there was no way she wasn’t getting married to him whether he liked it or not.

…

When the visitors left, grandma and grandpa retired for the night.

Grandma couldn’t sleep a bit; she knew that if she didn’t speak with Liu Wei that night she might not have the chance to anymore, because, with what had happened that night, he would surely be out of the house before they woke up the next morning.

So she waited a while for her husband to sleep before standing up and tiptoeing out of the room.

Liu Wei hadn’t slept a bit; his mind had been in a mess. He had called Liling and when she answered, she told him to sleep and that they would talk when he returned, so he had no one to talk to.

He just lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, waiting for the night to be over. Suddenly he heard light knocks on the door; and his eyes quickly darted towards it.

At first he thought he was just hearing things, until he heard it again. Quietly standing up from the bed, he walked towards the door and pulled it open, just enough to see the person on the other side.

”Can we talk. ”

Grandma was standing on the other side with a smile on her face. Liu Wei waited a few seconds before pulling the door open for her to come in.

Grandma sat on the bed and tapped on the spot beside her;

”Come sit. ” She said to the sad looking man, who wanted nothing but to be left alone. He stared at her for a few seconds before trudging to where she had patted on.

Grandma stared at him for a while before she grabbed his hand gently.

”Wei Wei, who is she? ”

She asked tenderly, looking straight at him but Liu Wei did not reply.

”You can trust me; I’m on your side, okay? ”

She said, rubbing on his hands tenderly.

Liu Wei felt a bit of joy in his heart. He had always wanted someone in his family who would look out for him; but it seemed like everyone was against him, and now, his grandma just said that she was on his side, how couldn’t he be happy?

”Grandma, I love her, I really love her…” He said slowly; now his grandfather  was back, they could go all lengths to harm her or threaten him to leave her; he didn’t know how long he was going to keep her hidden.

”That woman tried to kill her and father knows about it, but he didn’t do a thing. He still wants me to be with her. ”
