Chapter 10: Family Banquet



"Su Yang is a lazy guy who runs around all the time. He was not even on the scholarship list for Peking University and Tsinghua University. He even had to ask his family for money. I would just give up studying. Our Yiyi is not studying either. Let Xingwei introduce him to a job so that he can at least settle down."

A middle-aged woman sitting next to Zhang Yiyi persuaded.

The woman leaned back in her chair, her lips painted with bright red lipstick, and a look of disdain revealed at the corners of her mouth.

She is Zhang Yiyi's mother, Xu Yali.

She has disliked Su Yang since she was a child. Later, when Zhang Yiyi was rejected by Su Yang, she said a lot of bad things about Su Yang, which made Zhang Yiyi look at her cousin with sarcasm.

"Hey, wife, you can't say that. Studying is Su Yang's only way out. Otherwise, why would you let him do anything? Can his father arrange a good job for him?" Zhang Dafu smiled, "Why hasn't Su Yang come yet? Could it be that his blind date refuses to come? Second sister, why can't your son even bring a woman out?"

“It’s almost there, it’s almost there…”

Zhang Ning responded with a smile on his face.

But in my heart, I was furious: Where have you been, little brat? Wait and see how I'll deal with you!

"By the way, Xingwei, I heard that you got promoted recently?"

Xu Yali did not continue talking about Su Yang, but changed the subject and talked about her son-in-law.

In her opinion, the son-in-law her daughter found was a truly high-end person.

"It's not really a promotion, it's just a transfer from the company management office. The company's boss thinks highly of me and transferred me to the head office in Songhai."

Talking about this topic, Chen Xingwei couldn't help but smile.

Being transferred to the head office is definitely not as easy as it sounds.

I don't know how many gifts I gave or how much money I spent in private before I got through to a manager in the head office and was able to get the transfer.

However, as long as I can be transferred to Songhai City, the money will be returned soon.

So he didn't feel sorry for the efforts he made.

"Being transferred from a branch office to the head office is not considered a promotion. Look how modest Xingwei is."

Xu Yali smiled.

"That's right. My boyfriend is very humble. He's not like my cousin. He's just a poor student, but he still insists on going on a blind date and even says that the girl likes him. Humph~"

Zhang Yiyi held the arm of the man next to her and spoke with a look of contempt.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the box.

Everyone turned to look.

Then I saw Su Yang pushing open the door of the box and walking in.

"Well, if you speak of the devil, he will appear."

Zhang Yiyi took a look and turned her head away, showing no respect at all.

However, Su Yang didn't care much and apologized to all his relatives without changing his expression.

"I'm really sorry, something happened on the way and I'm a little late."

When everyone saw Su Yang come in, the first thing they looked at was not this, but they turned sideways to look behind him.

"Didn't they say that this guy also brought his girlfriend over for dinner? Where is she?"

Zhang Dafu said unhappily.

Xu Yali immediately chimed in with ridicule: "The blind date didn't fail, did the other party not like you?"

"I said you should find a stable job first. You are a poor student. Women nowadays all hope to find a steady and reliable man. Which woman would be interested in you nowadays?"

Her expression slightly raised, and the corners of her mouth curled up, as if what she said was really considering Su Yang.

"She went to the bathroom first and will be here soon."

Zhang Yiyi shook her head and said with a smile, "Go to the bathroom? It seems that my cousin is still a little shy. An ugly woman must meet the father-in-law, and she will come out sooner or later."

At this time, Chen Xingwei, who was sitting next to Zhang Yiyi, stood up and greeted Su Yang with a smile.

"Hello, my name is Chen Xingwei, Yiyi's boyfriend."

It's just that the smile on his face seems a bit forced.

Because normally Chen Xingwei never paid much attention to this kind of student party, let alone taking the initiative to say hello to them.

It was only because of the circumstances that he showed a good face to Su Yang.

"Hello, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Su Yang expressed his sincere apologies again.

"So why were you late? Did you spend a lot of time asking your cousin's wife for help?" Zhang Yiyi played with the cutlery in her hands, looking concerned.

"No, it's just that the road is a bit far and the shared bikes are a bit slow."

Su Yang answered very honestly.

"Huh? Cousin, did you come here on a shared bike?"

Zhang Yiyi was stunned when she heard this. "If you had known that you came here by bicycle, you should have told us in advance. I would have asked Xingwei to book another place. Fortunately, the security guard at the door did not kick you out."

"Zhang Ning, I have to say a few words about this."

Xu Yali couldn't help sneering, "Su Yang, you are such a fool. If you don't have money to buy a car, you can tell me, your aunt, and at least I can give you a ride, right?"

"Su Yang, this is your fault. If you can't get a taxi, don't you prepare in advance?"

Zhang Dafu lectured him in a deep voice: "It's fine if you do it alone, but if you let your girlfriend ride a shared bike with you, what will she think?"

"Dad, maybe that woman already hates my cousin. There's nothing we can do about it. My cousin doesn't have a car. But my Xingwei is different. I'll let you ride home in his supercar later. It's so cool!"

Zhang Yiyi looked weird.

Hearing that his son had brought his girlfriend here on a shared bike, Zhang Ning nodded Su Yang's head in dismay, "You little bastard, you asked me to go on a blind date and you took her on a bike. If you can't get a taxi, can you take the subway? You really made her suffer with you."
