100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 343 I Want Her As Daughter-In-Law

Day Forty-One…

~~*****~~

Aiden ran as fast as he could to stop his father from entering the guest room where Cherry was sleeping. Aiden blocked his Dad in the front door, extending his arms. "Dad, you can't enter this room! Back off."

"Who are you to order me around?" Master Wu scowled at his son. He motioned for his son to move away. "Let me pass through!" he used his authoritative voice to intimidate his son.

However, Aiden didn't budge. He stayed rooted in his spot, not allowing his father to grab the doorknob. His back was pressed against the door with arms spread wide.

"Don't test my patience, young man." Master Wu pursed his lips, giving him a sharp gaze. "I can't accept if you will be irresponsible again this time. You brought her to this house so you have to take responsibility for her."

Aiden didn't know whether to cry or laugh. His old man misunderstood his relationship with Cherry. If Cherry found out that he slept beside her in the same bed and his father caught them, she would certainly beat him up.

"Dad, if you want me to give you grandchildren then stop bothering Cherry. Don't get intervene. I'm still in the process of getting to know her." Aiden tried his best to convince his father.

"Getting to know her my ass. Don't fool me, Aiden Wu. You already slept with her!" Master Wu grabbed his son's shoulders and shove him to the side. Aiden staggered with his footing when his father pushed him so hard.

'Damn it! This old man is still physically strong.'

However, Aiden would not give up. Before his father could turn the doorknob, Aiden held his father from behind. His two arms were wrapped around his chest. They were in that kind of position when the door was opened from the inside and Cherry's confused expression greeted their sight.

Cherry just woke up and found out that she slept in a different room. Her head was throbbing as a result of her hangover. She just washed her face to feel refreshed despite her headache. Who would have thought that upon opening the door she would see Aiden hugging a handsome middle-aged man?

'Who is he? Why are they hugging each other in the hallway?' Cherry gave them a strange look. She didn't know whether to greet them or close the door and pretend that she didn't see what they were doing in that hallway.

Cherry chose the latter. But when she was about to close the door, Master Wu immediately stopped her by waving his hands. "Dear, don't be afraid of me. I'm just here to talk to you. I'm Aiden's father!"

After introducing himself to Cherry, he turned to his son and murmured, "Let go of me. You are embarrassing me in front of my daughter-in-law."

Realizing their current position, Aiden quickly let go of his father and fixed himself in front of Cherry. He lowered his gaze as he couldn't look straight into her eyes.

Cherry, on the other hand, didn't know what to say. She wasn't expecting to meet Aiden's father today. Furthermore, she couldn't remember what happened after she got drunk last night.

But Master Wu didn't give Cherry the chance to refuse. He grabbed her hand and invited her to come downstairs for her late breakfast. "Aiden, tell your cook to serve breakfast in the dining area. This young lady might be hungry."

Aiden could only obey his father. Though he was reluctant to leave them alone, he had to feed Cherry and get her medicine for her hangover.

'Sigh. I wonder if she remembers how she acted last night or not.' Aiden assessed her expression one last time before he went downstairs.

Master Wu guided Cherry to the living room while waiting for the food to be served at the dining table. His eyes sparkled in excitement. He couldn't contain his joy as he looked at her.

Meanwhile, Cherry felt a little bit comfortable. Aiden's father had been looking at her with a bright smile on his face. The way he gazed at her was somehow suspicious.

'I have a bad feeling about this. This old man is making me uneasy.' Cherry thought to herself, biting her lips. She didn't know how she would engage in a conversation with the old man.

"Don't be shy. I'm not frightening old man. Do you feel uncomfortable in my presence?" Master Wu asked her. The smile on the old man's face disappeared. He put on a pitiful face. He didn't mean to scare his future daughter-in-law in their first meeting. It's just that he got excited to talk to her and get to know her.

When Cherry saw the changes in Master Wu's expression, she suddenly felt guilty. She didn't mean to make him feel disheartened. "I'm sorry, Sir. I just don't know what to say."

"It's okay. You don't have to. Just relax. I'm not going to eat you." Master Wu was back to his jolly self. He was very kind and friendly. He was trying his best not to scare Cherry.

"And by the way, don't call me Sir. Just call me Dad." Master Wu said cheerfully.

Cherry: "..."

'What did he just say? Dad? He wants me to call him Dad? What kind of prank is this? Is this old man… Crazy? I wouldn't be surprised… Like father, like son.'

Cherry just gave him an awkward smile. "Sir… why should I call you… D-Dad?"

"Because you and my son are going to marry each other. I will make it happen. So don't worry child. I got your back!" Master Wu stated matter-of-factly.

Cherry: "..."

Cherry felt like her headache had gotten worse when she heard the old man's last remarks. If Aiden was shameless, then his father was way higher when it came to shamelessness.

'Where did he get this ridiculous idea? Does he think that I want to marry his son? No way!'

Cherry could sense the danger. She just got drunk last night. And today, she was being told to marry Aiden… by his own father. Her natural reaction was to stand up and flee. Without saying a word, Cherry ran away, leaving the house in an instant.

"Eh? Young Lady! Wait!" Master Wu was not able to react. Everything happened so fast. Before he knew it, Cherry was already running toward the main door.

"Dad! What the hell did you do?" Aiden questioned his father as he saw Cherry running away.

Master Wu just shrugged his shoulders and said, "Nothing! I just talked to her about your marriage."

CRASH!

Aiden dropped the mug that he was holding when he heard his father's words. 'Damn it! This old man! I want to cut his tongue off.'

Glaring at his father, Aiden also dashed out to chase after Cherry. He had to explain and apologize for his father's actions.

'I haven't received her answer yet about whether she would give me a chance or not. That old man made my situation worse! How I wish I could shut his blabbering mouth!' Aiden lamented to himself as he tried to catch up with Cherry.

Meanwhile, Master Wu just watched the door where Cherry and Aiden disappeared to. He rubbed his chin while grinning from ear to ear.

"This is so interesting. It looks like my son is having a hard time pursuing a woman. Hahaha. It serves him right! But I've decided. I want her to be my daughter-in-law!"
