373: Lu Jing revealed his intentions to his brothers-in-law.
"Big Brother will win."
A few more minutes passed, and Gu Yuan was kicked to the ground by Lu Jing.
"Good!"
Grandpa Gu and Grandpa Shen cheered simultaneously.
Xiao Niannian stood up, her gaze fixed on her Big Brother on the ground.
"I lost."
Gu Yuan stood up, smiling as he spoke.
Lu Jing gave Gu Yuan a hug.
After they separated, Gu Yuan and Lu Jing walked towards Niannian.
"Old Lu, how about you and I have a match?"
Gu Jin looked at Lu Jing with anticipation.
Gu Yuan looked at his younger brother and said,
"Don't join in the fun."
Gu Jin was a bit unconvinced.
"Big Brother, I'm not just joining in the fun."
"Old Lu, let's have a match."
Lu Jing heard Gu Jin's words and nodded in agreement.
"Alright."
Xiao Niannian looked at Lu Jing and her Second Brother.
Shen Yan then called out,
"Brother Gu Jin, that's not right. Brother Lu and Brother Gu Yuan have been fighting for almost half an hour. It wouldn't be fair for you to fight now." Shen Yan spoke very directly.
Gu Jin laughed when he heard this.
"Then we'll fight tomorrow."
He had just seen his Big Brother and Lu Jing fighting intensely, and his heart was filled with anticipation. He had indeed forgotten about that.
"Xiao Yan is right. Tomorrow, Xiao Jing, you go to our house and fight with Xiao Jin." Grandpa Gu also spoke up.
"I'll listen to Grandpa Gu," Lu Jing immediately said.
"Good."
Grandpa Gu looked at Lu Jing, who was not far away, and said,
"This child, Xiao Jing, is really good."
Grandpa Shen also nodded in agreement.
"I heard he's made quite a few achievements these past few years."
Grandpa Shen then praised Gu Yuan and Gu Jin.
"I heard Xiao Yuan and Xiao Jin have also performed exceptionally well these past few years..."
After dinner, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu took their Grandchildren back to the Gu Family home.
Lu Jing followed them out.
"Niannian."
Hearing Lu Jing call her, Xiao Niannian stopped.
"What is it?"
Lu Jing walked towards her.
Gu Yuan and Gu Jin were supporting their Grandparents. Seeing their younger sister stop, they also turned to look.
Xiao Niannian suddenly felt a little flustered. Although she wasn't dating Lu Jing right now, with her Grandparents and Older Brothers watching, why did it make her a little nervous?
Her gaze fell on Lu Jing.
Lu Jing's expression was calm.
Grandma Gu saw her Grandchildren stop and spoke up,
"Why are you standing there? Go back. Xiao Jing and Precious are Comrades-in-arms; they have something to talk about."
Grandpa Gu heard this and looked at his old wife meaningfully.
How could he not see the Lu family boy's intentions towards his Granddaughter? Back when he liked his wife, he was just like that. In that era, there were no gifts. Wildflowers by the roadside, mushrooms from the mountains, saved wages to buy a little meat or a little cotton, hunting for prey to give to his wife... He recalled how many people pursued his wife back then, but his wife didn't pay attention to their pursuits and chose him instead.
How could he not be angry that the Lu family boy coveted his Granddaughter? Of course, he was angry.
But among all the young men his Granddaughter knew, Lu Jing's ability was the best, and Lu Jing's character was also the best. So why should he refuse Lu Jing from approaching his Granddaughter?
What if his Granddaughter was deceived by some other scoundrel and suffered grievances? What then? Would he take his old wife to break that scoundrel's leg? They had finally found their Granddaughter; they absolutely couldn't let some scoundrel abduct her.
But with Lu Jing, if Lu Jing dared to let his Granddaughter suffer, he would definitely break Lu Jing's leg. Moreover, Lu Jing's home was in the Capital City, and his Granddaughter was right under their noses... Gu Yuan and Gu Jin felt something was off, but they didn't think much of it. They helped their Grandparents back to the Gu Family home.
Lu Jing took out a velvet box from his pocket and handed it to Niannian.
Xiao Niannian took the velvet box and saw a few sparkling golden pearls inside.
These were South Sea Golden Pearls.
The most expensive South Sea Golden Pearls had sold for tens of millions.
Xiao Niannian naturally liked these ornaments.
"I saw them during this mission and thought they were beautiful, so I bought them."
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Xiao Niannian looked at him with bright eyes.
"Thank you."
Lu Jing heard her say thank you, and he reached out and ruffled Niannian's head.
"As long as you like it."
Xiao Niannian put away the gift, looked at Lu Jing, and said,
"When are you going back for sea training?"
Lu Jing looked at Niannian and replied,
"I have half a month off this time."
Xiao Niannian nodded.
"Are you going to the Capital City Arms Factory these days?"
"I'll rest for two days, then go to the Arms Factory."
"I'll take you."
"Alright."
They walked towards the Gu Family home, talking as they went.
"How are you doing at the Military Academy?"
Even though they were talking about school and work, Xiao Niannian felt a sweet atmosphere.
Before long, they arrived at the Gu Family home.
For the first time, Lu Jing felt that this road was so short, and they had arrived at the Gu Family home so quickly.
Xiao Niannian invited Lu Jing into the house.
"Come in and sit for a bit?"
"Alright."
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Lu Jing saw Gu Yuan and Gu Jin staring at him with sharp eyes.
He smiled and nodded at them.
Gu Yuan and Gu Jin looked at their younger sister, then exchanged glances.
"Old Lu, we haven't seen you in a while. Let's chat."
Hearing Gu Yuan say this, Lu Jing followed Gu Yuan over.
Xiao Niannian, meanwhile, was pushed inside by Gu Jin.
"Little Sister, you go in first. It's too hot outside."
Xiao Niannian looked back at Lu Jing and saw him nod at her, a smile on his lips.
Xiao Niannian smiled.
She returned to the living room and chatted with her Grandparents.
But her ears were listening to the sounds not far away.
"Old Lu, are you interested in my little sister?"
Gu Yuan and Gu Jin stood one in front of the other, their expressions extremely serious.
"Yes."
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Gu Yuan and Gu Jin were stunned.
They thought Lu Jing would try to argue a bit, but they didn't expect him to admit it directly.
"You're really interested in my little sister? She's still so young, how can you be so shameless?" Gu Jin's words were even harsher.
Lu Jing didn't get angry at Gu Jin's words. He looked at Gu Yuan and Gu Jin and said,
"Gu Yuan, Gu Jin, let me ask you a question."
Hearing Lu Jing not answer his question but instead ask them one.
Gu Yuan and Gu Jin frowned.
"What question?"
"What kind of brother-in-law do you want your sister to have?"
"My sister is so young, why would she need a brother-in-law?" Gu Jin immediately retorted.
"Niannian is twenty-one this year. In a year or two, she'll definitely be looking for a partner."
Gu Yuan and Gu Jin glared at him.
"But it can't be you."
"Why can't it be me?"
Hearing Lu Jing's words, Gu Yuan and Gu Jin were stunned for a moment.
"We grew up together, known each other for over twenty years. You know me well, and you know my character. I won't let Niannian suffer any grievances..."
"Are you saying you're the best, and no one else is as good as you?"
