Love You Till the End-Chapter 792 - 790: The Old Man’s Return Gift

At the side, the servants held their breaths, not daring to inhale loudly.

On such a significant day, if the grandson and the old man really started to quarrel, it might become a laughing stock.

However, even though that was the case, they didn’t dare step forward to mediate, as it wasn’t their place to intervene in what the young master wanted to discuss with the old man.

Seeing Shi Yu’s indifferent expression, Shen Cheng reached out to tug at his sleeve, "Don’t be like this."

Her acting was so lifelike that she even deceived herself.

Shi Yu remained silent, his gaze on the old man grew colder by the second, until it was completely shrouded in a sinister darkness.

A dangerous aura emanated from him, spreading around and making one’s heart tremble.

The old man was not to be outdone, even with his advanced age, his presence was not inferior to Shi Yu’s. Their eyes locked as if waging an invisible battle that lasted three hundred rounds, hurting both in the process.

The servants were so nervous that their hearts were in their throats, wondering if a fight was about to break out... 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Come here, girl,"

Just at this moment, the old man who was previously stern, showed a kind expression, waving Shen Cheng over to him.

Shi Yu frowned, his deep-set eyes narrowing, clearly skeptical of the old man’s sudden change.

"Yes..."

The usually unruly little woman was rarely this docile.

Shen Cheng bowed her head slightly, walking cautiously to the old man and asked tentatively, "Grandfather, do you have any instructions?"

She was still performing...

The old man smiled at her and turned to instruct a servant, "Bring the item over."

"Yes, old man."

The servant quickly brought over a square box to the old man, who took it and handed it to Shen Cheng: "Girl, I liked the gift you gave me. Inside the box, there are a pair of teacups, a return gift from your grandfather. I hope you won’t look down on it."

A gift?

A return gift?

Shi Yu glanced at the old man and then fixed his gaze on Shen Cheng.

His sharp sword eyebrows raised, his half-squinted eyes shimmering with unfathomable light.

Shen Cheng received the teacups with both hands, finally shedding the fear she had feigned earlier, her lips curling into a smile: "How could I disdain anything given by Grandfather, I can barely contain my joy."

"That’s good, that’s good." The old man smiled contently.

"Thank you, Grandfather." Shen Cheng still politely expressed her gratitude.

Actually, she had also gifted a teacup to the old man, though it was not expensive.

She had thought about it for two nights, originally planning to buy a more expensive teaset, but then she thought that since the old man was wealthy, he did not lack money, so he might not necessarily favor more expensive items.

So, she went to a porcelain store and personally made the teacups, normally such porcelain would take at least five days to complete. Because she was in a hurry, she asked the owner to expedite the process and have it done by today.

The cost of that teaset was around six hundred or so.

It could be the least expensive gift the old man received today.

However, what Shen Cheng did not know was that among all the gifts, the old man’s favorite was the teaset she gave, even though it had significant flaws, he didn’t mind. This was also why the old man gave her a pair of teacups in return, made from fine bone china, said to be priceless.
