"Whether or not I'm worthy isn't for me to say."
The old man smiled and said, "She's being discharged from the military tomorrow. Why don't you two meet?"
"Alright. Actually, I lied to you earlier."
Xu Yun suddenly adopted a deadpan expression. "Back in my hometown, I have a childhood sweetheart who was raised to be my bride. My mother is still taking care of her, just waiting for me to come home during the New Year to get married."
"Is that so?"
The old man also suddenly became deadpan. "Tell me, what do you think would happen if I suddenly collapsed in front of you right now?"
"I wouldn't have done it, so I have nothing to fear."
"And who's to say it wasn't you?"
The old man laughed. "There are no security cameras around here. Who do you think the police would believe, you or me?"
"…"
The corner of Xu Yun's mouth twitched.
He was at a loss for words. "Old Secretary, I'm a total playboy. Are you sure you want to throw your granddaughter to the wolves like this?"
