Ye Chaoqun revealed his purpose, which silenced everyone present, who then began to look at each other in bewilderment.
It has to be said that these words did surprise them a little, after all, the Ye family's banquet is not so easy to attend.
Zhan Siyu asked, "Is this what Grandpa Ye wanted?"
This is a crucial question, so everyone looked in Ye Chaoqun's direction again.
"Half and half..." Ye Chaoqun said.
Seeing the girl's hesitant expression, Nangong Chen was even more confused. Inviting them to the Ye family banquet was probably only half-heartedly at the behest of Old Master Ye.
The other half, I suppose, refers to Ye Chaoqun's intention.
"I think I understand now. It must be that you wanted Nangong Chen to meet your parents, so you called us all over?" Nan Xiangwan asked.
Ye Chaoqun was somewhat embarrassed, but he did not reject the answer.
“That’s right. At first, I wanted Grandpa to give me an invitation so I could invite Nangong to our family dinner.”
"But my grandfather said that my purpose was too obvious and it might cause unnecessary trouble for Nangong, so he simply gave me twenty invitations to invite all the friends from Xingfu Community!"
As Ye Chaoqun spoke, he took out all the invitations that his grandfather had given him.
This result surprised them even more.
Ouyang Qian's eyes widened immediately. The invitation had already been presented, so this was probably not a test.
"Is Grandpa Ye so considerate of Nangong?" Ouyang Qian asked.
Nan Xiangwan frowned slightly. Ouyang Qian shouldn't have been so blunt in front of Ye Chaoqun.
"I'm sorry, this really shocked me, so I was a bit... "
Ouyang Qian realized the problem with her words, so she quickly apologized to the two of them.
But Ye Chaoqun didn't seem to care about it and said, "It's okay, Qianqian, I don't know anything about what you're talking about!"
"That's what my grandpa said anyway. Actually, I was quite surprised. Maybe these past few weeks have really changed my grandpa's impression of you. That's why I'm so happy today!"
Ye Chaoqun was still a little excited when he talked about this.
Nan Xiangwan also laughed. No wonder Ye Chaoqun was so excited; it turned out that Grandpa Ye had indirectly confirmed Nangong Chen's identity.
Moreover, Grandpa Ye's idea was correct.
"That's right. If we invite Nangong alone, he will definitely be targeted by other families in the future!"
"The forces originally targeting our Happiness Community will probably all be directed at Nangong, which will make the situation even more troublesome!" Nan Haochen said.
This is exactly what Zhan Siyu and Nan Xiangwan are thinking right now.
I never expected that Old Master Ye would be so thoughtful. If Ye Chaoqun had only thought of inviting Nangong Chen to the family banquet, Nangong Chen certainly wouldn't have refused.
After all, Ye Chaoqun was an extremely important person to Nangong Chen, and even if the future was destined to be dangerous, Nangong Chen would never refuse the invitation.
However, Ye Chaoqun did not expect that the old man Ye would think of things so thoroughly for him.
"That's why I'm surprised, Nangong. What exactly did you talk about with Grandpa these past few weeks? His attitude has changed so much!" Ye Chaoqun said.
For the past month, every weekend, Nangong Chen would bring a potted plant to visit Grandpa Ye.
This was something they had agreed upon beforehand, and Ye's parents had also met him. Nangong Chen's attitude towards him had also softened considerably recently.
Nangong Chen said, "We didn't talk about much. I felt that Grandpa Ye didn't have many activities in his spare time, so I brought a few chess pieces to play with him!"
"Chess and Go, didn't you play chess with me on the spaceship before?"
Nangong Chen also felt a bit lost. He and Grandpa Ye spent a whole day together and discovered that the people on Rose Star didn't seem to have much of a life after retirement.
Besides wanting to ease his own embarrassment, Nangong Chen also wanted to give Grandpa Ye a gift.
So for the past few weeks, he has basically been teaching Grandpa Ye to play chess in the Ye family's garden, and the two have indeed become more and more familiar with each other.
However, Nangong Chen was also flattered that Old Master Ye had thought of so much for him.
"Playing chess? What's so fun about that? I find it really boring!"
"Does Grandpa really enjoy playing chess?" Ye Chaoqun asked.
For a girl Ye Chaoqun's age, playing chess certainly wouldn't appeal to her, but for Grandpa Ye, a game that requires a bit of strategy is simply very attractive.
Zhan Siyu and Nan Xiangwan chuckled to themselves; they never expected Nangong Chen to be so clever.
"You little rascal! You've really got some cunning going for you!"
"This is absolutely perfect! To be honest, no old man like Grandpa Ye dislikes playing chess. This is a really good move!"
Even Zhan Siyu praised him, and Nangong Chen was genuinely a little embarrassed this time.
"I really didn't mean it, Zhan-ge, don't you believe me anymore?"
Nangong Chen was helpless. At this point, it seemed that no one would believe him no matter what he said.
Nan Xiangwan said, "It's okay. The process isn't important. The most important thing is the result. If Chaoqun comes here with these twenty invitations, doesn't that mean you've succeeded?"
"This is a good opportunity. When the Ye family banquet begins, I estimate that many important figures will be present!"
"At that time, Grandpa Ye might introduce you to people in the family. If that happens, it means the Ye family has already acknowledged you as one of them!"
"You need to be prepared for this opportunity!"
Nan Xiangwan didn't mean for Nangong Chen to perform well in front of the Ye family, but rather to leave a good impression on the Ye family patriarch.
In fact, Nangong Chen didn't care about the Ye family's business at all; he simply didn't want to make a bad impression on his father-in-law.
"knew……"
Nangong Chen became slightly nervous. If he lost his composure this time, Ye's parents might have an even worse impression of him.
"Don't be nervous. Grandpa is already protecting you. What do you have to worry about?"
"I'm telling you, on the day of our family dinner, just send a box of fruit over. Wouldn't that be better than anything else?"
As he spoke, Ye Chaoqun ate another grape. He was so fascinated by the taste of this fruit that he probably wouldn't trade it for the most fragrant pork belly.
"Pork belly is also very delicious. If I had to choose between pork belly and grapes, what would I choose?"
