…
The old house of the Zhan family.
Zhan Beiyao came in holding Ran Xia's hand openly.
As soon as I entered the hall, an oppressive atmosphere hit me in the face.
Ran Xia raised her eyes and saw an old man sitting on the sofa.
The old man is about seventy years old.
His hair was gray and his brown face was full of wrinkles, but he was full of righteousness.
It can be seen that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person when he was young.
I guess this must be Zhan Beiyao’s grandfather, Old Man Zhan?
Behind the old man at this time stood a young man in his twenties.
The young man looked somewhat similar to Zhan Beiyao, and he must be the cousin Zhan Beiyao mentioned.
On the sofa to the left of the old man sat Zhan Beiyao's mother Yuan Qian and a middle-aged man who looked extremely similar to Zhan Beiyao.
Without thinking too much, you can guess that the other party is Zhan Beiyao's father.
As for the right side of Grandpa Zhan, there was also a middle-aged man sitting there who looked somewhat similar to Grandpa Zhan, but was slightly older than Zhan Beiyao's father.
It must be Zhan Beiyao's uncle.
With just a glance, Ran Xia had a general idea of the relationship between the characters.
Zhan Beiyao ignored the strange atmosphere, took Ran Xia's hand and walked to Grandpa Zhan without changing his expression, and introduced: "Grandpa, this is my fiancée Ran Xia."
Ran Xia also handed over the gift box in her hand with an elegant look on her face: "Hello, Grandpa Zhan, I am Ran Xia. I often heard Zhan Beiyao mention you before. He said that you are highly respected and that you are someone he has always admired. It is my honor to meet you today. This is our first meeting, and I don't know what you like. Please accept this small gift from me, Grandpa Zhan."
Zhan Beiyao: “???”
When did he say that grandpa is highly respected?
This little girl's ability to respond on the spot is really amazing!
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhan's originally cold face softened a little.
He didn't expect that although this girl was young, she knew as much etiquette as an adult.
It seems that his grandson has a good eye.
Just as Grandpa Zhan was about to reach out to take it, Zhan Yichen behind him took the gift for him and said in a gentlemanly manner, "Grandpa, I see that Miss Ran is very thoughtful. Why don't you let me open the gift for you and take a look?"
Unexpectedly, Zhan Beiyao snatched the gift from Zhan Yichen's hand and said, "This is a gift from my future wife to Grandpa. Who are you to open it?"
Zhan Feixuan, who was standing by, saw his son being so careless and finally frowned and said, "Ayao, how did you talk to your eldest brother?"
Zhan Yichen, however, acted like a good brother and said, "Second Uncle, you must have misunderstood what A Yao meant. A Yao was just worried that I would ruin the gift Miss Ran gave to Grandpa."
Then, he said very sensibly, "Grandpa, A Yao is right. This gift was given to you by A Yao's fiancée, and you should open it yourself."
The reason why he said this was because he knew very well that his grandfather would never recognize Ran Xia as his grandson's daughter-in-law.
As he expected, Mr. Zhan's face darkened. "Fiancée? Who said I agreed to him finding a fiancée now?"
"Grandpa, whether you agree or not!"
Zhan Beiyao's expression suddenly turned cold: "She is already the wife I, Zhan Beiyao, have chosen! I will marry no one else but her in this life!"
If Ran Xia had a little doubt about her feelings for Zhan Beiyao before, she was now convinced of it.
Zhan Beiyao could say so firmly in front of his elders that he wanted to marry her, so of course she couldn't back down!
Seeing Zhan Yichen quietly provoking another fight, Yuan Qian quickly smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Dad, you asked me to investigate Miss Ran before. After getting to know her over this period of time, I found that although Miss Ran is young, she is the most suitable candidate for A Yao. Therefore, I unilaterally agreed to her being A Yao's fiancée. If you want to blame someone, blame me."
Ran Xia couldn't help but turn around and look at Yuan Qian.
The other person's expression was neither hurried nor slow, and there was even a hint of a smile on that delicate face.
She exudes a touch of celebrity style from head to toe.
More importantly, she felt a touch of warmth from Yuan Qian.
Is this the taste of motherly love?
Finally, Zhan Feitian, Zhan Yichen's father, who was sitting on the other side, spoke up: "Qianqian, I know you love Ayao, but marriage is a lifelong matter. A boy as outstanding as Ayao should find a wife of equal status. This little girl, although she is quite pretty, is really too young. And I think it's too hasty for you to make it public like this."
"Brother, what you said is wrong."
Yuan Qian calmly counterattacked, "When you're looking for a wife, you naturally have to find someone you like. Only when you're with someone you like will you feel good, and when you're in a good mood, you'll be passionate about work! Besides, if you don't get the person you like sooner rather than later, and someone else snatches her away, wouldn't that be too late for regret? Big Brother, don't you agree?"
Zhan Feitian's face suddenly turned ugly.
When he was young, he had a relationship with a girl, but later, in order to pursue his career, he told the girl that he would wait two years before getting married. Unexpectedly, the girl suddenly chose to marry someone else.
Later, although he married, he had no feelings for his wife, and even his career was not as good as Zhan Feixuan's.
This is the eternal pain in his heart!
Now that Yuan Qian brought this up, he felt like the wound in his heart had been rubbed with salt.
But soon, he smiled calmly again: "Qianqian, A Yao is a rare talent. As long as he waves his hand, there will be a lot of girls lining up to marry him. Do you need to worry about these things?"
Yuan Qian retorted with a smile: "Brother, finding someone you like and marrying just any woman have completely different meanings."
At this point, the woman turned to look at Mr. Zhan and asked with a smile, "Dad, if it were you, would you let A Yao marry a good-for-nothing vase or someone who understands A Yao and can care about him?"
Ran Xia remained silent the entire time.
Because in her heart, she has silently regarded Yuan Qian as someone she can trust.
As for Zhan Beiyao's uncle and cousin, she had a thorough understanding of them.
Sweet words but a sharp tongue, smiling but with a dagger hidden in the heart, this should be what this father and son are talking about, right?
"alright!"
Old Master Zhan suddenly frowned and interrupted them: "Stop arguing, everyone. Since Miss Ran is so thoughtful in giving me a gift, I will open it myself and take a look."
After saying this, Mr. Zhan opened the gift box and took out the gift from it.
