Especially upon hearing that the Emperor Jun admires Old Madam Jun the most and is very kind towards her, she felt that this was a great entry point.

"Since you guys are here, I’ll get going first. I need to get back to work, King, see you next time in the lab." Bai Sijia didn’t waste this opportunity to chat more with Third Young Master Jun. She knew when to stop. Buttering up to the Old Madam excessively might leave a negative impression; instead, humility and self-esteem were more respected.

After Bai Sijia left, Old Madam Jun said, "She brought some medicine which seems to be pretty good. This girl is quite considerate."

Ye Yiyi sneered inwardly, comparing Sijia’s actions to a weasel paying respect to a chicken during the New Year — clearly up to no good and certainly aiming to win over granny.

This woman’s motives were indeed unscrupulous, it was disgraceful; unable to seduce her dad, so she went for grandma instead. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Do you like her, grandma?" Third Young Master Jun asked.

"We haven’t spent much time together, so it’s difficult to say whether I like her. But she is beautiful, highly educated, and knows how to behave in the company of others. There’s not much to criticize."

The Third Young Master Jun gave a non-committal smile.

Old Madam Jun was puzzled, "I heard she was your ex-girlfriend?"

"Yes, I once pursued her."

"I never thought that you’d be the kind to actively pursue someone." Old Madam Jun seemed interested, "So why did you break up?"

"The reason is not important," Third Young Master Jun replied with a disinterested look.

"Have you rekindled your old flame with her? She seems to still like you."

"Well, I know that. If I were to marry her, what would you think, granny?" Third Young Master Jun suddenly asked.

Both Old Madam Jun and Ye Yiyi were shocked and couldn’t believe what they had just heard.

"Dad, no! I don’t want that witch to be my mom!" Ye Yiyi was fed up.

Old Madam Jun frowned slightly, then smoothed down Ye Yiyi’s ruffled feathers, "Baby, be good, go out and play for a while. Granny and your dad need to talk."

Hearing such explosive news, Ye Yiyi was reluctant to leave, yet she had to obey her stern granny.

After the door was shut, Old Madam Jun stared at Third Young Master Jun.

"Son, what exactly is on your mind? I can’t figure it out."

Third Young Master Jun smiled nonchalantly, "Granny, haven’t you always wanted me to get married and have a child? Now, I’m about to fulfill your wish, and you’re not happy?"

"Of course, I want you to get married and have a child, but not for my sake; it should be for your happiness."

"I’ll be happy, naturally. She’s beautiful, smart, comes from a good family, and is strategically cunning. As you said, there’s little to critique about her. This kind of woman is perfectly fit to be a suitable wife of a wealthy family."

Old Madam Jun’s frown deepened, "Whether she is suitable or not is one thing, but isn’t love the fundamental issue in marriage? If you don’t love her, then what’s the use of suitability?"

"Granny, how do you know I don’t love her? She’s the only one I’ve ever pursued."

"What about Ye Lu?"

Third Young Master Jun’s eyes immediately turned cold, "Granny, when I married her, it was also to fulfill your wish, but unfortunately, it didn’t work out."

"Sigh..." Old Madam Jun could only sigh, "Have you really made up your mind?"

"Pretty much!"

His thoughts were simple, the idea of love and whatnot were all bullshit. Love was the world’s biggest lie. That conversation he had with Ye Lu in the hospital had completely killed his feelings.

With his cold and indifferent personality, Third Young Master Jun was destined to lead a solitary and unconstrained life, manipulating everyone while remaining above it all.
