Hope you in my dream

Stunned, Rachel looked at grandpa Peter and asked, "Grandpa Peter, how do you know about me?"
Peter gave a faint smile and replied, "Amanda kept talking about how good you are to me and she wanted me to see you. She
told me everything about you."
Amanda gave Peter a glare and said unhappily, "Grandpa, we have reached an agreement. It's our secret. Do you know what
secret means? You are so bad!"
Seeing his granddaughter act like a spoiled child, Peter laughed happily. "Grandpa is so old now. Seeing your new friend here, I
am so happy that I almost forget it."
Amanda pouted, stating, "Just one time. You cannot do it again."
Peter turned to Rachel and asked with a smile, "Do you know how to play chess?"
Surprised and flattered, Rachel replied at once, "A little bit. What do you like to play? Go, Chinese chess or something else?"
"Chinese chess!" Peter said, "It seems that finally I can have some fun today. Amanda, go and get a set of chess for me!"
"Okay!" Amanda cheerfully ran and got the Chinese chess for Peter.
Rachel took a Chinese chess class at the university and won the first place in the chess game of the university.
Touching the chess she had seen for a long time, Rachel was slightly delighted.
Seeing how excited she was, Peter couldn't help but smile. "Don't rejoice too soon. What if you lose later?"
"Losing is a common thing," said Rachel with a smile. "It's nothing if I lose to grandpa Peter! But I will try my best to stop myself
from being so incompetent!"
Peter was amused by her. "Ha-ha, you are a sweet talker. We have not even started the game yet, and you have already given
up?"
"You don't have to say, but I know you must be very good at chess. A novice like me is no match for you," Rachel replied
modestly.
The smile on Peter's face never died away.

During the game, Amanda kept bringing them tea and fruits. She walked back and forth and glanced at the chessboard from time
to time.
When she realized the winner and loser of the game could not be distinguished yet, she couldn't help but feel surprised.
She thought Rachel was telling the truth just now about she was just a novice, but she didn't expect her to be too modest. In fact,
she was really good at Chinese chess!
Peter's face grew more and more grim, and the time he took for each step of the game to think grew longer and longer. The
battle between them in the dark became more and more fierce.
Amanda quickly took a picture of this scene and sent it to Clark.
At the same time, Clark was sitting in his office and listening to the report of his subordinate. "Recently, the Bai Group has taken
away many orders of the Yan Group continuously. Besides, there has been a severe internal strife among the shareholders of
the Yan Group, together with the corruption of the senior executives, and their stock market has also been affected..."
"Ding Dong!" the screen of his cellphone suddenly lit up. With a glance at it, Clark found a message from Amanda.
Clark took a closer look and saw a picture in which Rachel and Peter were playing chess with great seriousness.
Before the subordinate finished his words, Clark grabbed the car key from the table, stood up, and ordered coldly, "You leave
first, and continue to monitor the actions of the two families."
Before the man could make any reaction, Clark was already gone.
When he reached the gate of Ji Family's villa, he heard Peter's loud laughter coming from inside. "You naughty girl! Did you lose
to me deliberately this time? You want to make me happy?"
The clear voice of Rachel rang in the living room, "Grandpa Peter, I didn't let you win. It's because you are too strong and I can't
beat you, so I'm overwhelmed by you from the bottom of my heart!"
"Ha-ha," Peter shook his head and said, "For the first half, the battle was obviously so fierce, and your strength should not be
underestimated, but you lost to me in the end?
Let's do another round. This time you can't give up and let me see your true strength!" Peter laid out the chessboard and asked
to play again.

Left with no choice, Rachel continued, "Then, no matter I will win or lose this time, you can't suspect me!"
"Okay, no problem!" Clark said in a straightforward tone.
The moment he saw Clark, Peter didn't even look up at him and said in an indifferent voice, "I thought you were occupied with
your work. I used to call you and ask you to come back, but you didn't. Why do you come back today?"
"I'm back to grab something," Clark replied.
His eyes fell on Rachel, which was slightly cool with a bit of deliberation.
When Amanda ran out of her room and saw him, she pulled Clark aside and said, "Brother, don't disturb grandpa and Rachel. It's
a rare opportunity for grandpa to find a rival. Don't ruin it!"
Frowning, Clark asked, "What are you doing?"
Amanda stuck her tongue out and said innocently, "I just want to make grandpa happy. What else can I do?"
Clark didn't want to talk to her anymore. He turned around, walked to the sofa, and started reading a newspaper.
Peter exclaimed from time to time, "Your little girl, you set me up!"
"Oh, you set me up again!"
Rachel giggled from time to time. She was so cute and made Peter like her.
"Well, if only you were my granddaughter. But I already have a naughty granddaughter. If you could be my granddaughter-in-law,
I would be so happy. Because I wouldn't be bored in the future anymore!" Peter said casually.
Upon hearing this, Amanda, who was standing not far away, furrowed her brows and said, "Grandpa, you are only being greedy!
If I know you will dislike me, I shouldn't have brought Rachel to our house."
Peter laughed, explaining, "I was just kidding. Don't take it seriously."
Amanda stamped her foot and pouted, stating, "Rachel, show him your real strength! Beat my grandpa!"
Hearing this, Peter said anxiously, "Oh, you really hold a grudge! How dare you let an outsider to deal with your grandfather? You
have no conscience, right? I shouldn't have treated you so well when you were a kid."

At this moment, Rachel said with a smile, "Grandpa Peter, it seems that you are going to lose..."
Looking down at the chess board, Peter found he fell into another trap set by Rachel.
Clark glanced at them from time to time. He was in a good mood because of the harmonious scene. "One is willing to fight and
the other is willing to be defeated."
Peter glared at him and said, "You brat! It's been a long time since you played chess with grandpa last time. How could you say
that to me? You are heartless!"
Amanda walked up to them and shrugged, asking, "Since Rachel came, brother and I have become the ungrateful people in
grandpa's eyes?"
Taking a look at Rachel, Peter said with a friendly smile, "This girl is good-looking and smart. Everyone likes her."
Rachel was a little embarrassed after hearing Peter's praise.
"Stay for dinner tonight," Peter said to her and went back to his room.
In the evening, Rachel had a good dinner in Ji Family.
Peter had been urging her to eat a lot all the time. His enthusiasm was so intense that even Amanda, who was sitting next to
him, was somewhat envious.
After dinner, Peter urged Clark, "Clark, send Rachel back. It's not safe for a girl to leave alone."
Without another word, Clark picked up the car keys and walked out.
Embarrassed, Rachel shook her head and said, "Grandpa Peter, I can go home by myself. It's also convenient to take a taxi."
"No, you can't do that. You are a star now, how can you return home safely if you are recognized? Let Clark drive you home!"
Peter said decisively, not allowing anyone to refuse.
After walking a few steps and hearing the conversation between the two, Clark frowned, turned back, grabbed Rachel's hand
and walked out.
Rachel thought it was appropriate for Clark to hold her hand in front of grandpa Peter and Amanda?

Thinking of this, her face blushed.
Watching their receding figures, Peter turned to Amanda and said with a laugh, "You are such a naughty girl. I can't believe you
played this trick on your brother. He'll teach you a lesson when he's back."
