Chapter 1518 Love Is Blind

Li Jinnan gave her a look of encouragement and reached out to hold her hand. Ye Youyou grew even more nervous, and her heart began to beat quickly.

She had long heard of the famed Old Commander Li. Regardless of whether it was from the lips of the Shen family or from Ye Zhenhua, everyone only had good things to say about him. And, he was very tall. Every time someone mentioned that fact, she imagined an unsmiling and imposing man in armor.

Although he was now old, his dignified aura was still evident, even from afar. At one glance, he looked intimidating.

Ye Youyou followed Li Jinnan over. Her steps were slow and hesitant. When she entered the room, Old Master Li Xun opened his eyes fully and looked at her.

She dutifully called out, “Hello, Captain Li.”

When Old Master Li Xun heard her, he nodded his head and replied, “Hello. Have a seat.”

Li Jinnan cleared his throat and had Ye Youyou sit on the couch. He said, “Don’t stand on ceremony. My grandfather isn’t fierce. Just treat him as family.”

Li Xun nodded his head when he heard that. “Only Liu Sao and I are at home. Don’t be nervous. What’s your name?”

“My family name is Ye. My name is Youyou.” Ye Youyou smiled. It was obvious that she was nervous. She clasped one hand in the other and said, “My father told me to send his regards. Thank you for saving his life many years ago.”

Old Master Li Xun didn’t expect Ye Youyou to suddenly mention that. He had assumed she was simply there to cotton up to him and asked, “Who is your father?”

“He said he hasn’t seen you in many years, so you might have forgotten him,” Ye Youyou said. “His name is Ye Zhenhua, the little rascal that used to chase geese in Yun Town.”

That was Ye Zhenhua had told her to say to him verbatim. When the old man heard that, he immediately remembered and exclaimed, “He’s Ye Huaifeng’s son, isn’t he?”

Ye Youyou nodded her head and replied, “Yes!”

Li Xun started laughing. “I never expected that rascal’s daughter would be all grown up already! A few decades have passed in the blink of an eye. How quickly time flies!”

Ye Youyou smiled while looking at him, but she couldn’t help reaching out for Li Jinnan’s hand.

Li Jinnan squeezed her palm and said, “Grandfather, I’ll get some tea for you.”

“It’s on its way!” Liu Sao had just finished boiling the water. “Second Young Master brought some black tea from I don’t know where. We haven’t had the chance to brew it.”

With that, she took out two packets of tea leaves. Her gaze fell on Ye Youyou. With a smile that reached her eyes, Liu Sao asked, “How old are you, Miss Ye?”

“25.”

“Oh… I thought you were 21 or 22. You look so young and clean. You’re so pretty.” Liu Sao’s smile widened. She looked to the old man and asked, “Don’t you agree?”

Old Captain Li nodded his head. “Not too bad, but Ye Zhenhua always looked rough. I’m guessing your looks take after your mom.”

Ye Youyou nodded in affirmation. “I do look more like my mom.”

Li Jinnan started to brew the tea. He scalded the tea cups as he said, “This is the lady I spoke with you about. She’s pretty and has a good character. She has a good heart too. In short, she’s perfect.”

Old Mr. Li Xun harrumphed but couldn’t resist smiling as he said, “Love is blind! Do you think I don’t know what you’re like? You’re so biased! If you like something, everything about it will be good. If you don’t like it, not a single point will be redeemable. Why would you want it then?” He faced Ye Youyou as he spoke. “The lady is indeed good. I know her father and grandfather as well. They are honest people.”

“Obviously. Why would I want someone dishonest?” Li Jinnan was evidently very pleased with himself. “I’m happy as long as you find it good.”
