Chapter 1056: Conquered with 36D
Crystal got into the car, looked at her diamond ring, and the more she looked, the more beautiful it seemed. She snapped a photo and sent it to the group chat.
Today, she and Nova’s little group had added Lana and Calliope.
As soon as the picture was sent out, Nova almost instantly replied.
Nova Howard: "Wow wow wow, a pigeon egg, I really want it."
Lana Shaw: "Did my cousin buy it?"
Calliope Shaw: "Oh my god, I can’t believe my cousin bought a diamond ring, Crystal, he’s really intimidating."
Nova Howard: "Exactly, exactly, my mom said I used to cry when I saw him when I was a kid."
Nova Howard: "Crystal, how did you conquer Major General Shaw?"
Crystal smiled and typed on her phone screen: "With 36D, of course."
The small group instantly fell silent, and then countless crying faces started flooding the screen.
Crystal chuckled, leisurely closed the group chat, and just in time for dinner when she returned to the Shaw Family.
Maybe because Alaric’s wedding was done so well, the old lady kept the two of them after dinner and started talking about weddings.
"You’ve been secretly married for a year, what are your thoughts about the wedding?" The old lady was asking her grandson.
Richard Shaw paused and said nothing.
Crystal hugged the old lady’s arm, showing her the diamond ring, and said with a smile: "Grandma, does it look good?"
"It looks good, everything looks good on Crystal." The old lady laughed.
She shook the old lady’s arm and smiled, "I’m just a freshman, if I have a wedding, going to school will turn into a zoo for monkeys. How about we wait until I graduate to have the wedding? Grandma, please spoil me, let me play for a few more years. If everyone finds out I’m married into the Shaw Family, I’ll lose all my friends."
The main issue is that although Richard is currently in the Imperial City, the matters in the Southwest Military Zone haven’t been completely passed over. Even if he returns, should the wedding be grand or low-key during such noticeable times?
Crystal never cared much about the wedding; for her, harmonious marriage, a happy family, and Richard’s unique status made a secret marriage best.
The old lady had never failed to consider these things; she was just afraid of wronging her, hence taking risks to have a grand wedding. But seeing Crystal talk like this, she felt incredibly comforted, thinking she’s indeed a child of the Cox Family, so clever and transparent.
Crystal hasn’t really made friends over these years, which the old lady had noticed, and her words were only meant to make them feel comfortable.
Richard was surprised to see Crystal speak like this and said quietly, "My methods have been ruthless over the years in the Military District, and I’ve made countless enemies in the political circles. It’s best to keep Crystal’s status private."
He went to the Military District at a young age and quickly rose to the rank of Major General, thanks to the Shaw Family’s influence, but also his own methods, although Richard never talked about these things.
"Then let’s wait a few more years," the old lady thought about the safety concerns, and didn’t say much more.
The old lady soon retired for the evening, and Richard saw that it was getting late and said calmly, "Go to bed early, you have school tomorrow."
"I took a leave, so I can sleep in," she bit her red lips, blinking her beautiful peach blossom eyes, and spoke softly. Then she gracefully got up, choosing not to tease the block of wood, as he’s been abstinent lately, no matter how she teased, there was no reaction.
The man’s eyes darkened, thinking about how she’s been teasing him these past few days, kindling a small flame of desire inside, transforming him from being polite in front of grandma to either being teased or receiving affection from her directly when alone. That tolerance has its limits.
