When Shi Nian entered the living room, she saw a young man in a suit sitting on the sofa, elegantly drinking coffee.
The man looked to be in his late twenties, with a refined and gentle demeanor, and seemed to possess great depth.
He is also very good-looking.
Of all the men Shi Nian had ever met, besides Ye Chen, he was probably the most handsome.
Shi Nian is quite patient with good-looking men.
Of course, Ye Chen is an exception.
Shi Nian's initially unpleasant mood instantly improved upon seeing the man's appearance.
She walked to the sofa, and the man stood up, looking at her with a smile.
"Young Miss, it's been a long time." The man's smile was gentle, giving one a feeling of warmth and comfort.
"Have we met before?" Shi Nianchun's eyes were filled with confusion. She didn't think she had ever seen this man before.
The man smiled and said, "Yes, we met on the day the young lady was born."
Shi Nian: "..."
"However, the young lady had just been born at that time, so she probably doesn't remember me." The man's smile remained gentle. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Rong Qing, and I'm from the young lady's birth mother's family."
Shi Nian stared at him in astonishment.
Who are the people in her birth mother's family?
She knew absolutely nothing about her birth mother...
Her memories of her mother were only vague and indistinct.
She only remembered that when she was very young, her mother gave her a jade pendant and told her to keep it safe, saying that it was a key clue to finding her father.
After that, her memories stopped at the stage of being locked in the laboratory as a drug patient.
Later, the old man took her back to the Bo family.
At this time in her previous life, she had already been imprisoned in a dungeon by Ye Chen, so she didn't know if Rong Qing had come to find her in her previous life as well.
Shi Nian composed herself, looked calmly at the man, and asked, "So, you are my cousin, or some young uncle?"
Rong Qing smiled and said, "No, I am your maternal grandfather, the patriarch of the Shi family. I found someone to be your future husband before you were even born."
Shi Nian: "..." She looked at Rong Qing in surprise, somewhat startled.
So, this Rong Qing is the fiancé her grandfather found for her that she couldn't find in her memories?
“Besides me, there are nine other people, making a total of ten. We were all carefully selected by the old master to be trained, so that when you reach marriageable age, he can choose one of us as your husband,” Rong Qing said with a smile.
Shi Nian: "..." She was startled.
Her maternal grandfather, whom she had never met, didn't find her a fiancé, but rather arranged a harem for her.
"Are the other nine as handsome as you?" Shi Nian asked suddenly after a long silence.
"Pfft..." Rong Qing laughed out loud and teased, "It seems that your family's obsession with appearance is hereditary. When your grandfather was sick, he would not take his medicine even if others persuaded him to. I had to persuade him to take it. He always said that when he saw a pleasing person, everything tasted sweet."
Shi Nian's lips twitched. "Can you make it simpler if you want to express that you're the most handsome among ten people?"
Rong Qing was not embarrassed by being exposed. She asked with a smile, "Does Miss have time to come back to the Shi family with me? The old master has been wanting to see you ever since he heard about your whereabouts."
