Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

When Yao Muchao returned to the house, Yao Jun had just woken up and was changing clothes with the help of a maid. The people who were accompanying him were all his confidants, so there was no need for Yao Jun to continue pretending to be lame.

"Why are you back? Lord Chen wouldn't be so stingy as to not even treat you to a meal, would he?"

Yao Jun had just washed his face and was sitting in a chair, asking his attendant to comb his hair when he heard familiar footsteps coming in.

At this moment, there was no outsider in the room. Yao Muchao, no, Bai Xiaotao, stopped pretending to be a man and walked up to Yao Jun and asked, "Father, are you really going to marry Chen Xi?"

Yao Jun glanced at her and asked, "What do you think of her being your mother? Can you accept it?"

Bai Xiaotao shrugged nonchalantly and said, "I'm already this old. Even if she marries you, don't even think about controlling me. The worst that can happen is that I can just wander around the world by myself."

"Oh, you're dreaming." After combing his hair, Yao Jun picked up the crown from the desk and handed it to the attendant behind him, then said, "Even if I want to marry her, she may not marry me yet. Let's leave it like this for now."

"By the way, Xiaoxi prepared today's dinner, so you are in for a treat."

"He calls me so affectionately. It seems that father is really moved." Bai Xiaotao sat on the desk with her feet dangling off the ground.

"It's just a title."

After putting on the crown, Yao Jun stood up, walked to the wheelchair and sat down, saying, "Delicious food should be eaten while it's hot. Let's go to that small courtyard to have dinner."

Bai Xiaotao jumped off the desk, walked to the back of the wheelchair and pushed it away, muttering loudly: "It's just two steps away, and you can't bear to ask her to bring it here."

"Don't you know that one hot dish is equivalent to three fresh dishes? I'm just giving face to the delicious food." Yao Jun explained.

Bai Xiaotao twisted her lips, obviously not believing it, but she stopped teasing her father. If she made him angry, she would suffer.

When leaving the main house, Bai Xiaotao turned back into the serious Yao Muchao, with a frosty face, as if everyone owed him money.

Chen Xi had been notified long ago and knew that Yao Jun would eat in the courtyard, so he cooked the dishes on time. When Yao Jun and his son arrived, Xiao Luo had just brought the last soup dish into the house.

Hearing the sound of wooden wheels turning in the yard, Chen Xi hurried out to greet them. When he saw Yao Muchao coming, he paused and became stiff all of a sudden.

"Mr. Yao, Mr. Mu Zhao, it's just been done. I was just about to call you." Chen Xi said respectfully.

Yao Jun moved his body. As soon as he entered the yard, he smelled the unique aroma of cooking. He was eager to know what delicious food Chen Xi had made today.

Yao Jun: "Then we came at the right time, Mu Zhao, let's go in and see what delicious food they have made."

Yao Muchao had a stern face and looked at Chen Xi with displeasure in his eyes. He pushed his father into the house without saying a word.

Chen Xi knew why he was unhappy. It must be because Yao Jun gave up 10% of Chen Country’s profits for her, as well as the promise of seven cities.

As an adopted son, he used to enjoy the power and status of Gongzijun alone.

My appearance now has definitely threatened his position. If I have children in the future, it will be even more serious. After all, no matter how good an adopted son is, he is not as good as a biological child.

Wait! Why am I thinking about this!

Who wants to marry this bad guy! And a cripple at that!

Chen Xi slapped his head in annoyance and quickly ran into the house.

As soon as he entered the room, Yao Jun saw Xiao Luo and Grandpa Chen standing by the table. When he had met them before as Jun Ye, the two sides were already very familiar with each other.

But now that they were meeting in the capacity of Young Master Jun, the two of them seemed very reserved, and when they saw me come in, they didn't dare to speak.

Seeing Chen Xi coming in, Yao Jun smiled and asked, "Xiao Xi, this old man is your grandfather, right?"

Chen Xi stood next to his grandfather and said, "Yes, this is my grandfather, and this is Xiao Luo."

Yao Jun raised his hand and asked his adopted son to help him up. After he stood up, he bowed slightly to Grandpa Chen and said, "My name is Jun, my surname is Yao, and I am from Yao. You can call me Yao Jun."

After a pause, he continued, "Today at the blind date party, I made a promise with the Queen of Chen that if I marry Xiaoxi one day, I will give her seven cities as a betrothal gift."

After he finished speaking, the room fell into deathly silence. Chen Xi felt his head buzzing. He never expected that Yao Jun would say such a thing in front of his grandfather.

What on earth is he going to do!

Grandpa Chen was even worse. From the moment Yao Jun bowed to him, he became at a loss and didn't know how to respond.

He wanted to go forward to help Yao Jun, but facing Yao Muchao's cold face, he didn't dare to go over. After such a while, he was sweating with anxiety.

Yao Jun's next words made him even more dumbfounded.

What did he say? He wanted to marry my granddaughter with a betrothal gift!

And the betrothal gift is seven cities! Am I dreaming?

Just when Grandpa Chen wanted to slap himself to see if he was dreaming, there was a slapping sound beside him. Turning his head, he saw a slap mark on Xiao Luo's face. She had hit herself.

Seeing everyone looking at her, especially the gazes of Yao Jun and Yao Muchao, Xiao Luo felt even more stressed. She lowered her head and stammered, "I...I hit a mosquito!"

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but the mosquito that Xiao Luo hit brought Grandpa Chen and Chen Xi back to their senses.

Yao Jun looked at Xiao Luo with satisfaction and said with a smile: "The mosquito was not small. It made your face red."

Xiao Luo had used too much force just now, and now half of her face was still burning, with tears in her eyes.

Seeing this, Chen Xi hurriedly pulled her out, got a basin of cold water for Xiao Luo to wash first, and then went to the kitchen to boil eggs.

Grandpa Chen wanted to call his granddaughter, but she moved too quickly and ran out with Xiao Luo before he could open his mouth.

I had to suppress my nervousness and apologize to Yao Jun: "Sir, Xixi and Xiaoluo have a good relationship. I was too nervous to see her injured. Please don't blame her."

Yao Jun: "I can see that. Old man, please stop standing. Let's sit down. I wanted to talk to you at noon. Mu Zhao, pour the wine."

Although Grandpa Chen really wanted to go out, he still sat on the stool obediently at Yao Jun's invitation.

After helping Yao Jun sit down, Yao Muchao picked up the wine jug on the table, filled up Yao Jun and Grandpa Chen's glasses, then stood aside holding the jug of wine without sitting down.

Grandpa Chen looked at the wine in the bowl with fear and trepidation. Although he already knew that Yao Muchao was Gongzi Jun's adopted son, his status was still extremely high.

Seeing that he finished pouring the wine, he stood aside holding the wine jar. Grandpa Chen stood up and said, "Hey, why don't you sit down, Mr. Mu Zhao?"

Yao Jun smiled and said, "Old man, you don't have to worry about him. When he wants to sit down, he will sit down naturally. Come, I will toast you."

Under Yao Jun's persuasion, Grandpa Chen had no choice but to sit down, pick up the wine bowl, and drink a sip of wine with Yao Jun.

After chatting for a few sentences, seeing that the old man was still nervous, Yao Jun thought for a moment and said, "Mu Zhao, you go to the door first and don't let anyone else in for the time being. I want to talk to the old man in private."

Although Yao Muchao didn't know what his father was going to say, he still put down the wine jar, walked out of the house and closed the door.

Seeing that he and Gongzi Jun were the only ones left in the room, Grandpa Chen swallowed nervously, his hands trembling on his legs.

Yao Jun picked up the wine bowl and took a big sip. After putting the bowl down, he let out a long sigh, raised his hand and slowly took off the golden mask on his face, revealing a large blood-red scar.

Grandpa Chen's pupils trembled, and he asked with trembling teeth: "How did you do this?"

Yao Jun shook his head: "I was ambushed by the Northern Barbarians a few years ago and almost died there."

Grandpa Chen had heard about this matter before. He nodded to indicate that he had heard of it, and listened attentively without interrupting.

Yao Jun looked at the old man and said with a wry smile: "Old man, look at my face. Even with my current status, who would be willing to marry me?"

"I have no other intention in telling you this except to tell you that I have traveled the world since I was 15 and have experienced a lot. I am not one of those nobles who only know how to eat, drink and have fun."

"Even if I want to marry your granddaughter one day, I will only marry her in a formal way and will never treat her unfairly."

"Of course, she has to accept me as I am. You can rest assured that I won't force her to marry you."

"I can assure you!"
