"Old Chen, Xiao Xi is such a lovely girl! Whoever marries her will be incredibly lucky!" Mother Yan looked at Chen Xi meaningfully and praised her.
When Mr. and Mrs. Chen heard Mrs. Yan praising their precious daughter, they couldn't stop smiling, but they still kept a straight face. "Oh, not at all. It's good enough if she doesn't cause me any trouble or make me worry!" Mr. Chen said, with his round beer belly.
"Daddy~" Chen Xi called out sweetly, looking up and meeting Yan Xu's deep eyes. Her face turned red, and she quickly lowered her head. When the others saw this, they laughed even harder.
Yan's mother looked Chen Xi up and down, becoming more and more satisfied. Similarly, Chen's mother looked Yan Xu up and down, extremely satisfied.
Yan Xu grew increasingly annoyed by the mutual flattery. He stood up, picked up his coat, and said, "Excuse me, Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen, I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
"What urgent matter do you have that you have to leave halfway through a meal?" Yan's mother immediately scolded her son with a cold face. There were so many people around, and he just left like that.
Yan Xu had already figured it out; his parents were setting him up on a blind date in disguise. All that talk about the two families building a relationship through frequent visits and meals was pure nonsense.
"I'm going to shoot a commercial this afternoon."
Yan's mother said sternly, "What's the use of shooting so many commercials? Go home and go to work as soon as possible. That's what a proper job is."
Yan Xu almost couldn't maintain his polite smile.
"Your business is important, don't delay," Chen's mother said, trying to smooth things over.
Chen Xi's expression changed when she heard that Yan Xu was leaving.
The main characters at today's dinner were the two of them. Now that the male lead is gone, am I left to perform a solo act?
Chen Xi bit her bright red lips, looking extremely aggrieved.
"Brother Yanxu!"
Not wanting to embarrass her son in front of so many people, Chen Xi's mother quickly offered her a way out when she saw Chen Xi's tearful expression, "Xiao Xi, go see Yan Xu off!"
"Oh, okay!" Chen Ximai took small steps to chase after Yan Xu.
"Brother Yanxu..."
"Brother Yanxu, wait for me!"
Chen Xi finally caught up with Yan Xu.
Yan Xu walked fast with his long legs. She was wearing high heels, which made it inconvenient for her. After running for a while, her face was flushed, and she was clinging to Yan Xu with both arms, looking like an octopus hanging on him.
"Let go of my hand first. There are a lot of people here. It would be bad if someone saw us."
Yan Xu glanced at Chen Xi's slender arm and said indifferently.
"No, no, Brother Yanxu, I've been running for so long, I'm so tired!"
Chen Xi pouted and acted coquettishly.
Chen Xi's delicate yet somewhat unreasonable behavior made Yan Xu frown even more. He strode quickly, regardless of whether Chen Xi could keep up.
Chen Xi was satisfied. She held on tightly, her pretty face rubbing against his arm. The strong muscles of his arm made Chen Xi's heart flutter.
The three people having dinner witnessed this intimate scene and were all puzzled.
"Tsk tsk, I've encountered a plot from a novel again." Lan Qingyue rested her chin on one hand, looking slightly gossipy. "I've been with him for so many years and I never knew he was a rebellious young master. The world of the rich is beyond my understanding."
If there's a company in the family, just inherit it properly. Why do you have to cause trouble?
Wei Yu wasn't as gossipy as Lan Qingyue. She glanced at it and then looked away, her slender hand holding the cup. She looked at the lemon slices in the cup with indifferent eyes and smiled, "Novels are based on life, after all."
Yang Yue smiled and said, "That's true."
