The Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO

Not quite long, Fu Hua came back dressed in new comfortable clothes. He didn't look surprised to see his old man there, as he made his way towards them.

Mei took the bag in his hand away and went to put it away.

"You're back." Jia Li said with a smile. She was currently eating but she looked happy to see him.

"Mmm." Fu Hua hummed in reply before turning to the old man who hadn't spared him a glance to ask, "Grandfather, has it been long since you came?"

"It hasn't been long. Don't distract me from chatting with my precious child. Look how obedient she is, just like Li girl." Grandfather Fu said with a smile, as he still had his gaze on the little girl in his arms.

"Grandfather, why do you only say that she is quite like Jia Li, what about me?" Fu Hua asked as he thought it was unfair.

Normally he wouldn't mind but now, he was curious to know how he acted when he was a child.

"You? If you know how troublesome you were when you were still young, you wouldn't have brought this up." Grandfather Fu said as he spared him a glance.

Fu Hua furrowed brows, while Jia Li stared at him in amazement. She couldn't help but find it not convincing that the cold man she has always known was stubborn when he was young. She thought that he was calm and liked to stay by himself but who knew it was the opposite of it.

Being reminded of his past, Grandfather Fu became energetic to tell a story.

"Li girl, let me tell you a story about Fu Hua's childhood." The old man said with a smile.

"Grandfather!" Fu Hua said with a frown.

"Don't call me, go and sit over there." Grandfather Fu said to him before glancing back at Jia Li who looked very curious to hear the story about Fu Hua's childhood.

"Grandfather, please go on!" Jia Li said excitedly.

'What kind of person was Fu Hua when he was young?' Jia Li thought.

Fu Hua glanced at Jia Li with a frown but it was a waste of time as the latter didn't even spare him a glance. She was more interested to learn about his embarrassing stories.

Fu Hua couldn't stand there and watch them talk about him in his presence, so he took the little girl from the old man's arms and went over to sit on the couch.

As Fu Hua had left their presence, Grandfather Fu began to tell his stories, while Jia Li listened attentively.

"When Fu Hua was young, he was very stubborn and active. He didn't like to stay at a place and always like to cause trouble, he cried when things didn't go his way. He only changed when he got into Junior High School. Back then, he was very energetic and lovely but he was known for his troubles. As he was my first grandchild, I took a liking to him and trained him myself. His grandmother loved him so much that she would give him anything he wanted but saw that if he lacked discipline, he would not turn out well, so I started to discipline him and by then I had more grandchildren but I trained Fu Hua myself."

Fu Hua could still hear them talk and laugh at him and a huge frown sat on his face. When he noticed his little princess's gaze on him, he faked a smile.

He was more scared of frightening her than being angry at hearing his past embarrassing stories. He didn't want the view Jia Li had about him to change, so he was unhappy with his old man.

By the time the old man finished telling his stories, he requested for his great-granddaughter to be brought to him but Fu Hua refused.

"This is my child, go back home and hold any of your three children." Fu Hua said to him.

"You... how can you be so unreasonable?" Grandfather Fu asked with a frown.

"How am I unreasonable? Jasmine is my child and I want to hold her. If you really want to hold her, wait till I'm tired but doubt that I will ever get tired of holding her." Fu Hua said and looked away.

Jia Li was finding it difficult to hold in her chuckle. She has never seen Fu Hua being so childish to this extreme and it seemed like he was good at bearing grudges.

"Li girl, have you seen that my stories are not fake. Look, he is being so unreasonable, just like he used to be in the past." The old man complained.

Butler Lu had to look away in order not to laugh. 'Who does he take after?' He thought and laughed inwardly.

Fu Hua refused to let the old man hold Jasmine again. He swayed the little girl in his hands till she fell asleep before he placed her in her cot. And after that, he ate the food Housekeeper Zu served him.

Grandfather Fu couldn't scold him as his precious great-granddaughter was fast asleep.

"You are so shameless!" Grandfather Fu said through gritted teeth. Fu Hua glanced at him and looked away without saying anything. He was not concerned.

Initially, Grandfather Fu didn't want to scold him because Jasmine was sleeping but he couldn't tolerate his indifferent attitude.

"How dare you act so arrogant?! If I didn't force you to get married, would you have been able to hold your child by now?"

"You also wouldn't have been able to hold your great-grandchild if I didn't get married." Fu Hua said with a smile that was not a smile.

"You..." Grandfather Fu said while pointing at Fu Hua with an angry gaze.

It has been long since Jia Li saw the grandfather and grandson quarrel. She had to stop the old man before their argument got out of hand.

"Grandfather don't mind him. He is only jealous of you. If you didn't force him to get married, he won't be this proud." Jia Li said to the old man with a smile.

Fu Hua narrowed his gaze at Jia Li who looked away from him.

'Shouldn't she be on her husband's side?' Fu Hua thought.
