Chapter 709: Doting On His Daughters Excessively
Duke Eton was not surprised to receive Leng Jinpeng’s call because he had already received Nuannuan’s call before that.
As for the news that Nuannuan had quietly gotten engaged to a military officer in Camino, Duke Eton was very surprised.
After asking about Nuannuan’s wishes, he gave her his blessings.
After all, if the 8-year-old Nuannuan and 11-year-old Selina had not saved him, he would have died long ago. His two adopted daughters who had grown up away from the public’s scrutiny also died in that disaster.
Nuannuan and Selina’s appearances was a turning point in his life. It was also because of Nuannuan and Selina that he became the richest man in Luntan.
As a father, he could not think of anything else to repay them for their kindness other than giving them his full blessing and support.
Therefore, when he received Leng Jinpeng’s call, Duke Eton put on a very amicable attitude. He was happy that Nuannuan had found such an outstanding fiancé. At the same time, he informed Leng Jinpeng that he had already arranged his schedule and would meet with Old Master Chi in Jiang District three days later.
When Leng Jinpeng asked Duke Eton about how he felt about Nuannuan marrying a soldier in Camino as the daughter of a duke and the fact that she was going to marry a Camino soldier in the future, and whether the royal family of Luntan would object to that marriage, Duke Eton laughed out loud.
Duke Eton told Leng Jinpeng that although Nuannuan and Selina were her daughters and were included in the Luntan royal family’s genealogy book, they could not inherit his title because they were adopted. They could only enjoy the respect given to them by the Luntan royal family due to their status as well as the duke’s estate.
Therefore, the royal family did not care too much about Nuannuan’s and Selina’s marriage. Although the royal family wanted to introduce his two daughters to the noble youths in Luntan many times, unwilling to let the wealth from the duke’s estate go to waste one day, Duke Eton declared to the Luntan royal family seven years ago that Nuannuan’s and Selina’s marriage would decide their own marriages. Even if Nuannuan wanted to go to F Continent to support the primitive tribes and never return, he would fully support her, let alone marry a Camino officer.
Leng Jinpeng had never interacted with Duke Eton before, so he did not know how he was. However, after this call, Duke Eton left a surprisingly good impression on Leng Jinpeng.
After the call ended, Leng Jinpeng informed Nuannuan to hurry to the military base to complete the procedures.
Since she completed her end of the semester examination, the rest of the time before winter break and the second semester after winter break were all meant for revision. After revision, it would be time for her National College Entrance Examination.
To Nuannuan, who had a photographic memory, this was nothing.
This was because she had only spent a month to finish reading all the books from Year 1 Junior to Year 3 Senior. Other than memorizing the few math questions that required active application without really knowing how to apply them, she had memorized everything else by heart.
In the past two days, Chi Yang found someone to renovate their new study room, putting a large bed in the study room. After all, someone attempted to assassinate the old master the moment he arrived at Jiang District. No one knew if such an assassination would happen again.
Since the hostels in the military base had two rooms, and Chi Yang made one of the rooms a study, the old master could not stay there. Chi Yang and Nuannuan were worried about letting the old master sleep at Leng Jinpeng’s place at night. Therefore, last night, Chi Yang and Nuannuan brought the old master to an apartment in the city. After the military base completed their renovation, Chi Yang and Nuannuan could sleep on the big bed in the study room, and the old master could sleep in their bedroom instead.
