Chapter 85 Likes Little Purple Very Much

    

Ren but also felt that Hao Ren seemed to have even greater goals. This kid was far from being as simple as he appeared.Boom! Just after crossing the first intersection, Hao Ren suddenly accelerated!It...Chapter 85: Really Likes Little Zi

Holy Land of Dragons Hao Ren was somewhat surprised.

Zhao Guang nodded and smiled. This time, he and Zhao Hongyu had met Hao Ren's parents, dispelling any lingering doubts they had. It was time to take Hao Ren to experience something more profound.

The group walked out of the hotel and said their goodbyes. Today’s lunch went very smoothly and pleasantly, except for Zhao Hongyu’s sudden suggestion that Zhao Yanzi should become Hao Ren’s fiancée.

Because of Grandma’s relationship with them, both families had already built mutual trust, seeing each other as suitable matches.

Yue Yang kindly patted Zhao Yanzi's head and said his goodbyes. Although this little girl was now his official daughter-in-law in name, Yue Yang wasn’t eager to invite her over for a visit just yet. Today’s initial meeting was just the beginning; there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Hao Ren helped Grandma into the car while Hao Zhonghua went around to the driver's seat.

Zhao Yanzi and his family also got into their own car, waved goodbye, and parted ways.

On the way back home, Grandma sat in the backseat, thinking about how cute Little Zi was going to become her granddaughter-in-law. She felt more excited than if she had won a million dollars from stock trading.

The car headed toward their seaside villa. During this time, Hao Zhonghua's phone rang five or six times, all related to work matters. In the end, he decided to turn off his phone so that nobody could reach him.

To make Grandma happy today, he had put aside all his work and devoted himself entirely to spending time with his family. Today’s stern punishment had finally made him realize how important it was to balance both career and family.

Scientific endeavors were significant contributions to society, but the family couldn’t be neglected either.

Similarly, Yue Yang also turned off his phone to avoid any distractions.

When they arrived at their villa, Hao Zhonghua parked the car in the garage and led everyone into the house.

The house was a two-story structure, larger than the two-story bungalow that Zhao Zanyi lived in. The ground floor featured a spacious hall with an entire wall facing the sea, decorated entirely with plastic steel glass. It was truly a seaside villa.

The second floor had living and dining spaces, which were accessed via a small wooden bridge structure leading to a little house. Uncle Wang, who usually prepared meals for Grandma, lived on the ground floor of this smaller house.

Surrounding the property was a large garden tended to by Uncle Wang.

If not for the loneliness that Grandma felt living here alone, such a residence would be quite pleasant to live in.

"Mom, I won't go to the lab today. I'll stay with you," said Hao Zhonghua as he held his mother's hand respectfully.

"I know how busy your work is. If I'm not taken care of well, then so be it, but you must never neglect the Purple Family who have been kind to us in the past. Do you understand" Grandma said.

"Understood. It's my fault today," Hao Zhonghua sincerely admitted his mistake and tried to excuse Yue Yang, "Yue Yang was ready to come over early but I insisted on finishing up at work so it delayed her."

"Alright, alright. There’s no need to explain further. I’m happy when you both often come home. Even though your work is hectic, don’t neglect your health either. Now that you’re finally back home, both of you should get a good night's sleep," Grandma gently patted Hao Zhonghua's arm and advised.

After all, he was her son; she felt somewhat regretful for having hit him so hard earlier.

"It’s fine. We’ll walk around with you."

"Walk where I need to sleep too today. A bit tired," Grandma said as she went into her room and closed the door.

Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang were left with no choice but to return to their own room for rest. Indeed, they had been so busy since returning home that they hadn’t even adjusted properly to the time difference yet.

Meanwhile, Hao Ren also retreated into his room, locking the door behind him before opening a window and quietly practicing Concentration Technique.

During this period, he wore the two Tai Mountain Bracelets Su Han had put on him. It was like carrying over a hundred pounds of weight every day, forcing him to circulate his Spirit Condensation Technique non-stop except for when sleeping at night. There was no room for relaxation.

Because of this constant practice, he became more proficient with the Spirit Condensation Technique. Although he didn’t go to Su Han’s office these past few days, he practiced diligently on his way to class and during meals.

Might be because they were near the sea, there was sufficient moisture in the air. Hao Ren felt that his practice of the Spirit Condensation Technique had subtle progress when reaching its second layer.

The originally half-filled body with natural energy was now fuller, as if it increased a bit more. Especially the nine crucial points inside his body absorbed even more of the natural energy, vaguely resonating with the dragon pearl near his Dantian.

Before he knew it, it was late in the evening. Hao Zhonghua came to call Hao Ren for dinner. When he opened the door, Hao Zhonghua suddenly noticed that after half a day of rest, the boy had fully recovered and seemed to have improved his temperament as well.

Men change greatly when they grow older. After my month abroad, this kid has become more handsome every day. No wonder girls are starting to like him now, Hao Zhonghua thought in his heart.

After dinner, Hao Zhonghua invited his son to take a walk by the seaside.

The wind at sea was salty but refreshing on their skin. The sound of the waves and the soft sand made it an excellent place for heart-to-heart talks.

"I haven’t seen you in a while, Ah Ren, but I can see that you’ve become more robust and more like a man," Hao Zhonghua said as he observed his son under the cover of darkness.

"Dad, I’m not saying this to nag, but please be more considerate towards Grandma," Hao Ren scolded while walking on the sand.

"I care, it’s just that your grandma likes to nag, ah…" Hao Zhonghua sighed. "To tell you the truth, is that girl I saw at university really not your girlfriend"

"No, she's my class president," Hao Ren replied.

"I think this girl isn’t bad," Hao Zhonghua said softly.

Hao Ren interrupted the topic and asked, "How did you casually agree to Zhao Yanzǐ's matter today"

"After interacting with Zhao Yanzǐ’s family today, they indeed seem very nice. And saying it at the dinner table was just to make your grandma happy. You're not unaware of her temperament; once she decides on something, she’ll insist on doing it her way. She likes this little girl, so all we can do is go along with her wishes and avoid upsetting her," Hao Zhonghua said.

"You’re not being sincere" Hao Ren asked further.

"It’s not that simple," Hao Zhonghua gazed at the surging waves 20 meters away, "This little Miss Purple is quite pretty and cute. Having her as our daughter-in-law wouldn’t be a bad deal for us, but she's still young, and there are too many uncertainties in the future."

After pondering for a few seconds, he asked, "Do you remember Little Radish"

"Little Radish" Hao Ren was somewhat puzzled.

"Haha, you’ve forgotten She’s that girl who often came to our house when you were young. Her father is my university classmate; back then, we got along quite well, and her family would frequently come over to play with us. Because she was small and skinny, we all called her Little Radish. You’d always have her trailing behind you everywhere. Don’t you remember"

Hao Ren pondered for a while; in his hazy memory, there emerged a little girl with a runny nose, wearing a yellow dress streaked with dirt, and adorned with a small red flower in her hair. She would constantly call out "Big Brother Big Brother" as she followed him around.

"I have some recollection…" Hao Ren nodded, "Where is their family now"

"Her father was one of the earliest to go abroad during our generation. Due to poor communication back then, after he left for America, we gradually lost touch with him. That Little Radish should be in America with her dad," Hao Zhonghua looked up at the sky and said with a sigh.

"Why bring this up all of a sudden" Hao Ren asked.

"Oh, I was thinking back to how close our families were then. Seeing you two always together, we even jokingly arranged a childhood engagement for you both. But as the kids grow older and change, such arrangements no longer matter," Hao Zhonghua said helplessly.

"If Little Purple grows up and truly likes you, your mother and I won’t oppose it if you two are together. However…" Hao Zhonghua shifted his tone, "if she doesn’t like you or finds someone else in the future, forget about today's discussion and don't force anything to happen, got it"

"Yeah," Hao Ren kicked a deep hole in the sand with his toe and nodded.gon God Festival is a major holiday for dragon cultivators and an important occasion in our Eastern Sea Dragon Palace, hence this grand scale," seeing how surprised Hao Ren looked, Chancellor Xia expl...
