Chapter 651
"So eager?" Yunxi said, "I was originally planning to invite a few friends so he could meet them slowly."
"You seem quite anxious, but it's alright. I'll have Jingyuan arrange for a few matchmakers to go over in a bit."
Yunxi nodded without giving it any further thought.
After all, Shen Rang was more familiar with the situation in Luoyang City.
With Shen Rang handling things personally, it seems she doesn't need to worry about this matter.
Yunxi felt completely relaxed.
The two talked about Shen Nianchu for a while longer. Once Shen Rang's attention was diverted, the strange feeling in his body quickly subsided.
Only after he could see nothing amiss did Shen Rang get up and leave.
With him gone, Yunxi suddenly found herself with nothing to do.
Seeing that Shen Nianchu immediately returned to her lively self after Shen Rang left, Yunxi couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Life is so peaceful."
However, the so-called peaceful and tranquil life is only temporary.
Yunxi soon noticed that Huo Yue was spending more and more time at home.
In the past, Yunxi rarely saw him, to the point that he was almost invisible to her. But recently, she has been able to see him every time she goes to have a meal with Zhong Jie.
Moreover, Huo Yue gave her a feeling that was almost obsequious.
Yunxi was getting a little used to being served food and soup.
But on second thought, perhaps Huo Yue was just like that all along.
Over time, Yunxi got used to it.
Until one day, Huo Shu and Chen Qiang also came over to have dinner together.
Huo Shu stared wide-eyed at Huo Yue, who was busy at the dinner table taking good care of the mother and daughter while barely eating any himself.
What's going on?
Is this really his father?!
Looking at Zhong Jie and Yun Xi, who both seemed completely unfazed, Huo Shu was even more shocked.
Do you remember when he was a child, there was a period when he refused to eat properly? What did Huo Yue do back then?
They kicked him out and starved him for three days!
Three whole days!
Don't give him a single bite to eat!
In the end, he was so hungry that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he knocked on Zhong Jie's door and finally got a meal!
Now look at the present—
"This braised eggplant is the chef's specialty. Xi'er, you should try it."
"Not eating? Don't you like it?"
"It tastes really good, you'll know once you try it."
"Alright, it's okay if you don't want to eat. There are so many dishes. Just tell your father what you want to eat, and he'll get it for you."
Huo Yue wielded a pair of serving chopsticks with incredible speed.
Huo Shu looked at Huo Yue and tentatively said, "Father, I want to eat eggplant."
Huo Yue shot him a glare: "Don't you have hands?"
Huo Shu: "..."
Yes, it's still that familiar dad, no doubt about it.
Huo Shu was relieved.
Chen Qiang, standing to the side, shook her head helplessly as she watched this scene.
Why do I need to be scolded to feel at ease?
When I came to my senses, there was a piece of lychee flesh in the bowl.
She was taken aback, then met Yunxi's gaze.
"Sister-in-law, you should eat more too."
Chen Qiang pursed her lips, a warmth spreading through her heart: "Okay."
While the Huo family was filled with warmth and affection, the Yun family, also in Luoyang, was in chaos and turmoil.
The Su family, Madam Yun's maternal family, arrived in Luoyang early in the morning. They didn't even have time to go to an inn; they went straight to the Yun family's door and blocked Yun Changliang, who was supposed to go to court, from going back.
At this moment, Yun Changliang, dressed in official robes, sat in the front hall with a gloomy expression, looking at the several men who were as strong as mountains, who had completely blocked the entrance to the main hall.
He turned to an elderly man with white hair and beard: "Father-in-law, I have to go to work today. No matter how important the matter is, please wait until I get back before we talk."
