Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 1209

At eleven o'clock in the morning, the sun was shining, and the temperature was still warm.

In the Hsu family, Old Master Hsu's bedroom was the best one in terms of natural lighting. The sun shone brightly on the floor through the wholecolored window curtains.

Master Hsu drank the tea, but the wrinkles on his face seemed to have tightened. He then put down the teacup in his hand and said anxiously, "Anthea, why didn't you tell me that you had been injured!" Anthea smiled. "Grandpa, I didn't want you to worry about me!"

After the plaster was removed, she wanted to visit her grandfather.

It would soon be the Lunar New Year. However, she couldn't spend the New Year's Eve with Master Hsu because of Adam, and therefore she came in advance to visit the old man. Originally, she didn't want to tell the Old Master about her injuries. But when the servant came in to serve them tea, Anthea picked up the teacups from the tray, and the servant stumbled because of carelessness. Anthea supported the servant with her arms and, during the process, Master Hsu noticed that Anthea's movement was somewhat strange and unnatural. He then asked her what had happened. "Am I not worried now?" The Old Master was somewhat worried, but he was more worried about her at the same time. He looked at her left leg. "How is it now? Is everything okay? What did the doctor say?" "It's all right! Look... The plaster had been removed and it looks good. The doctor said that I was young and my recovery was fast! If you don't believe me, I'll dance for you now!" Anthea said with a smile. Seeing that she was about to stand up and dance, the Old Master berated her, "Stop! Just have a good rest."

Anthea revealed two dimples to the old man.

Master Hsu felt happy again. He took her hand with his old and warm hands. "Anthea, why don't you move to my house? There are many servants here, and they can surely take good care of you!" "No need, grandpa!" Anthea immediately shook her head.

Although Master Hsu wanted to do so, he clearly knew that if he really let Anthea move to this house, she might be wronged by someone who looked down upon her. For this reason, he didn't insist on inviting her. He then asked, "Where do you live if it's winter vacation now?"

Anthea explained, "I'm currently living in a female classmate's house, which she rented together with someone else. Her roommate had gone back to her hometown for the Lunar New Year, and therefore I'm accompanying her now!"

Master Hsu nodded with relief, and then repeated, "It will take at least three months to heal your bones. Anthea, you must be careful during this period, okay?"

"I know, grandpa!" Anthea smiled.

Master Hsu pulled her up and said, "Let's go downstairs and ask the servants to cook some bone soup!"

The grandfather and granddaughter walked down the stairs. When they were about to walk down the last step, a servant came to report, "Old Master, Mr. Adam Chin is here!"

"Adam is coming?" The Old Master was very happy to hearthat.

Anthea, who was holding the Old Master's arm beside him, lowered her eyelashes shyly.

"I haven't expected him to come so fast!"

Originally, they had planned that Anthea would go to the Hsu family first, and Adam would come over in

the afternoon...

This was the first time the two of them had appeared together at the Hsu family since they had become secret lovers.

Soon footsteps could be heard from the hallway. Adam's coat was placed on his elbow, and he was wearing a neat camouflage suit, which made him look tall and strong, giving others the impression of a strong and powerful military officer.

Anthea looked at her secret lover almost obssesively.

She quickly restrained her own expression so as not to reveal any clues to the others.

Adam had walked up to them and nodded. "Dad."

Master Hsu was surprised to see his son-in-law coming to his house. His smile deepened. "Adam, when did you come back from the army?"

"It's been a few days." Adam replied calmly.

Anthea said obediently, "Uncle Chin!"

"Uh..." Adam said calmly.

Master Hsu said kindly, "Jayden accompanied your mother-in-law to visit the relatives of the Jiles family. I didn't go with them because there would be too many people there. I thought I would be a lonely old man staying at home today, and felt bored. I hadn't expected that you and Anthea would come one by one! The lunch will soon be ready. Adam, let's have lunch together!" "Alright." Adam nodded.

The servants respectfully left after putting the dishes on the table.

Master Hsu was sitting at the master position of the table. Anthea and Adam were sitting at his two sides. Whenever she looked up, she could see his extremely handsome face.

Anthea tried to behave decently.

As it was a rare instance for his granddaughter to come here, Master Hsu specially ordered servants in the kitchen to cook some delicious dishes. Every one of the dishes was carefully prepared. There were six dishes and one soup, including meat dishes and vegetable dishes for the balance of nutrition.

Master Hsu's appetite was good today, and he helped Anthea and Adam to the food from time to time.

Under the dining table, in a place that no one noticed, their toes occasionally touched. Although the isolation of slippers existed, Anthea could even feel Adam's big toes gently rubbing hers, which made her heart tremble slightly.

For some reason, she felt the thrilling excitement of being sneaky...

This was indeed too daring!

Anthea looked fine in appearance, but her heart was beating fast.

At this time, Master Hsu suddenly asked, "Adam, I heard that you have a girlfriend now, right?"

The chopsticks in Adam's hand halted.

He remained silent for half a second and then nodded without denying it. "Yes."

Anthea, who was sitting opposite Adam, also pinched the chopsticks in her hand tightly and held her breath nervously.

Master Hsu heaved a long sigh. "Three years have passed since Rory passed away. Adam, I like you very much! Since the day our two families were united by the marriage, I have always regarded you as half a son!

You are still young, less than thirty years old. If you meet a girl who you love, I will not stop you. I can't let you never marry again for your whole life! As for your mother-in-law, she might be more stubborn in this. But I will persuade her!"

Master Hsu's words were said after careful consideration.

Even in ancient society, there were no social rules to forbid a man to marry again if he lost his wife. What's more, Adam was still so young, and their daughter, Rory, passed away more than three and a half years ago. It was impossible for Adam to waste a lifetime for his former wife. It was not realistic!

As for the news that Adam had had a new girlfriend, it was actually revealed to the Old Master by Adam's mother, Meadow Yamada.

In addition to showing off to the others, she also wanted to prove that there was nothing wrong with her son's sexual orientation. He liked women only. Meadow wanted to keep those gossipers silent. At the same time, she also wanted to learn about the Hsu family's opinions.

After all, the two families were once united by the marriage. If Adam was to get married again someday, it would be reasonable for them to solicit an agreement from the Hsu family.

Adam's black eyes swept across the opposite side, and then he replied in a low voice, "Thank you, Dad."

When the Old Master told Adam that he knew the latter had a new girlfriend just now, he almost wanted to tell the old man what had happened between Anthea and him. However, he finally held back.

He thought that this was still not an appropriate time to tell the Old Master, and Anthea might not be ready for it. Just now, under the table, her toes were curling up nervously. Adam also wanted to protect her, and her privacy.

Master Hsu turned to look at her again. "By the way, Anthea also has a boyfriend now. When are you going to bring him here to see grandpa?"

"Grandpa, don't worry about it!" Anthea bit her lips.

Master Hsu nodded with a smile and said kindly to her, "Okay... Girls should be more restrained in such things! But at least you have to tell grandpa whether the relationship between you and your boyfriend is good. What kind of person is he? Is he nice to you?"

Anthea's long eyelashes fluttered, and she could roughly see a masculine figure sitting opposite her. Her voice was shy and serious. "He treats me very nice..."
