Since attending Mr. Qi’s birthday party n days ago, this is the second time I have seen the old general who is said to have been on the battlefield.
The wrinkles of time are not spared, and the weathered eyes are kind and gentle, concealing the once murderous aura.
"Hello, Grandpa Qi." Shen Yun greeted him obediently.
The reason why the Shen couple came back a day early was because the Qi family was going to have a dinner party, especially since Old Man Qi had mentioned that he wanted to meet the younger generation.
The junior Zhou Wang was on a business trip, and Chen Xi joined the team, so only Chen Yun was brought here alone.
The Shen couple were a little confused, as their two families were not close friends.
The Qi family was originally involved in politics. If Qi's eldest son had not passed away early and his grandson had not been interested in this, he would probably have risen to a high position.
Chen Yun glanced at Sheng Wanwan, who was sitting next to Elder Qi, and Qi Peisheng, who had a gloomy face beside Sheng Wanwan.
She briefly recalled the last time they met. It seemed that she had not offended their family?
Qi Peisheng had a party planned for the evening, and was dragged over by the old man to join him. Although he was unhappy, he still stood up enthusiastically when he saw the Shen couple coming, "Hello, uncle and aunt."
Mr. Qi was dissatisfied with the fact that several people were standing, and said, "Everyone, sit down. There are no outsiders here today."
At Qi Lao's signal, Father Shen came and sat down next to him.
Although the box is not big, everything from the lighting and murals to the tables and chairs are made with a lot of money.
Shen Yun glanced at the tableware on the table. There was still one set left after the three of them sat down.
Generally, when inviting guests to dinner, the number of people will be reserved in advance. The waiter will add or remove tableware according to the number of people and try to avoid removing seats in the middle of the meal.
So, there is still one guest who hasn't arrived.
After a few pleasantries, Old Qi looked at Chen Yun and smiled kindly, "This girl is quiet and gentle, and her grades are among the best. Old Jiang is full of praise for you."
Lao Jiang, the principal of a prestigious high school in City A.
But it was obvious that Mr. Qi had remembered the wrong person.
In Mr. Qi's eyes, the man who had been quiet since childhood was Chen Xi.
Chen Yun really benefited from this.
Everyone changed their minds when they heard these words.
Madam Shen glanced at Shen Yun worriedly, but when she saw that she didn't look angry, she felt relieved and wanted to explain.
Unexpectedly, Qi Peisheng was the first to remind Old Qi, and smiled meaningfully, "Grandpa, you are old and you remembered it wrongly. The girl in front of you is the daughter of the Shen family who was lost a few years ago and just returned not long ago."
Although the news of Chen Yun returning to the Shen family caused a minor stir in the circle, it had a great impact on the younger generation, but for an older person like Mr. Qi, it was the first time they had heard of it.
Mrs. Shen introduced, “This is my youngest daughter, her name is Shen Yun.”
Old Qi was slightly surprised, but he quickly hid it. He had heard about this a few years ago. "It's good that you're back. I remember I held you in my arms when you were little."
Chen Yun smiled. If she didn't know that Mr. Qi really didn't know the truth, she might have thought that he was deliberately trying to pressure her.
Qi Peisheng didn't have a good impression of Chen Yun. He was familiar with Zhou Wang and had met Chen Xi many times, so he could be considered a half-sister.
I heard that Chen Yun grew up in the countryside and developed a lot of tricky habits, so the incident of him causing a scene at the banquet was definitely true.
Especially since Jiang Xiaoyan came to cry about how sinister and cunning Chen Yun was last time, her impression of her was even lowered.
After greeting the Shen couple at the beginning and smiling at Chen Yun, Sheng Wanwan then obediently acted as an invisible decoration.
"I'm old now, and I like to see young people together. Seeing them full of vigor and energy, I feel a few years younger unconsciously." Old Qi spoke again.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yun felt that it was her time to step up. A place with great potential didn't need heroes; she alone was enough. She immediately moderated the atmosphere, "Grandpa Qi is still strong and healthy, something we young people can't compare to. We only look young, but in reality, we've already overdrawn our vitality from staying up all night."
Mr. Qi nodded as he listened, then sighed and shook his head. "You young people, cell phones are a double-edged sword. You have to be careful about how you use them."
"Grandpa Qi is right. I must be more sensible in the future and not let my phone lead me around. I must be the master of my phone, not its slave!" Shen Yun's face was serious, and he took the negative effects of mobile phones seriously.
Who doesn’t like a good child who admits his mistakes and corrects them?
Old Master Qi relaxed his expression and felt a little satisfied with the girl who had been found not long ago. He caught a glimpse of Qi Peisheng holding his cell phone and tapping away, and snorted coldly.
"Pei Sheng!"
Qi Peisheng seemed not to hear anything and was messaging someone.
Seeing this, Sheng Wanwan pushed his thigh with her hand under the table.
Qi Peisheng dodged for a moment.
Sheng Wanwan's hand froze in mid-air and she silently retracted it.
Qi Peisheng looked up as if thinking of something. After looking around, he fixed his gaze on his grandfather and asked innocently, "Grandpa, is there something wrong?"
Everyone was there, but he was fiddling with his phone, and all the table manners he learned were thrown away!
Old Qi's face was not looking good. He had to save face for his grandson when he was away from home. After all, he was a married man and could no longer say, "Pour a glass of water for your wife."
Qi Peisheng glanced at Sheng Wanwan, who looked calm, and swallowed the words that were about to be rude.
Fortunately, the waiter came in with the dishes and broke up the fight between the grandfather and grandson.
Mr. Qi was old, so he didn't dare let him drink too much. However, Qi Peisheng accompanied Mr. Shen and drank a lot.
After three rounds of drinks, Mr. Qi gradually got to the point.
"You young people should communicate more. I like you very much, and I have a grandson I want to introduce to you."
The person who can be introduced by Mr. Qi is not just any introduction.
Mrs. Shen was surprised. She hadn't been able to guess the purpose of tonight, but now everything was so obvious that it would be unreasonable for her not to guess it.
Not to mention that Ayun had just returned not long ago, she also had no plans to let her daughter get married early.
Chen Yun blinked, figuring out his intention, and then smiled shyly, "Grandpa Qi's introduction is naturally good, but I didn't grow up in City A, so I haven't seen much of the world. I'm afraid I'll disappoint your kindness."
If she had rejected Mr. Qi's honor right then and there, wouldn't she have been ungrateful? She wasn't that stupid.
However, everyone knows that only Qi Peisheng is the grandson of Mr. Qi. Who is the other grandson?
Chen Yun glanced at the empty seats again. His other grandson was late...
Mr. Qi waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Experience is all empty talk. It's just a set of flattery that can be learned at any time. I don't judge people by appearances, but by their hearts."
Chen Yun felt even more guilty after hearing this. On the surface, she could still pretend, but in her heart... she was harboring a lot of evil intentions that she hadn't revealed.
How could Qi Lao, a veteran vixen with decades of experience, not see through her relatively young skills?
Before Shen Yun could think of a reply, a voice rang out along with the sound of the door being pushed open.
"I'm sorry, I'm late."
With a strong sense of apology and a familiar voice, Mr. Qi's other grandson, who had arrived late, appeared in front of the public.
Chen Yun turned his head stiffly little by little, and met a face whose smile gradually disappeared.
