Chapter 866
Ye Junqing said, “That’s why you can’t indulge such people.”
Ye Xingguang giggled.
“Nephew.” It was at that moment a voice called out from another car.
The voice was unfamiliar.
Ye Xingguang turned toward the sound and saw an elderly couple accompanied by a middle-aged couple walking over. They were Ye Junqing’s maternal grandfather, nominal grandmother, and their aunt and uncle.
“Grandfather.” Ye Junqing led her toward them and introduced her to the group.
Ye Junqing’s maternal grandfather was also her mother’s father, which meant he was her grandfather as well. Ye Xingguang greeted him, “Grandfather.”
She didn’t call out to the so-called grandmother, aunt, or uncle though, as if these people didn’t really get along with her mother. The mother-in-law had clearly stated that the folks from the Bai family were not invited, yet here they were. Ye Xingguang hadn’t forgotten this aunt, who had ridiculed her mother at the President’s inauguration dinner.
“Hmm,” the elderly Mr. Bai leaned on his cane.
Mrs. Bai reached out and took hold of Ye Xingguang’s hand, feigning affection, “What a pretty girl, your mother is blessed.”
Ye Xingguang looked at the aunt standing beside her and said, “My mother is blessed indeed. Even by marrying a random fisherman, she became the Crown Princess Consort of Country S and raised such a pretty daughter as well. She’s got good fortune, what can I say.”
This aunt, who had been full of vanity at the President’s inauguration, had claimed that her mother had married a fisherman and was living on a remote island, almost reveling in the idea that her mother wasn’t living well, which infuriated both her and her father.
Beside her, Ye Junqing’s aunt Yang Qiaochu wore an embarrassed smile, and this included Mrs. Bai as well. Inwardly, they all experienced an indescribable feeling.
They had assumed that after the Bai family’s young miss had fled her marriage, her life would plummet drastically, a phoenix fallen to less than a hen. Yet recently, it emerged that her fisherman husband was actually the Crown Prince of Country S, a revelation that had deeply frustrated them.
However, Mr. Bai was overjoyed—their son-in-law was the Crown Prince of Country S, a son-in-law he had yet to meet.noveldrama
“Where are your parents?”
His daughter had been married for so many years and still hadn’t brought her husband back home. To date, he hadn’t even had a cup of tea from his son-in-law – preposterous! Today, he intended to have a cup of tea served by his son-in-law personally.
Song Chuanqi and Bai Lanwu were entertaining guests in the house. Besides hosting the engagement party for their daughter and son, Song Chuanqi also intended to announce to the public that Leng Chenmo was his biological son—an affair that, until now, only his family knew about.
At that moment, Song Chuanqi was introducing Leng Chenmo to Grandfather Zhuo and Li Yu’s father, his voice was full of pride, “Uncle Zhuo, Old Li, allow me to formally introduce my son, Leng Chenmo. He is the biological son of Lan Wu and me. Today is not only my daughter’s engagement party, but also my son’s. It’s a double celebration all at once.”
Li Yu’s father, a longtime neighbor of Song Chuanqi, was incredulous, “Old Song, this joke of yours is a bit much. Since when did you and Lan Wu have such a grown son? I’ve never heard you mention him before.”
Song Chuanqi smiled broadly, “I just recently learned that I have such a grown son myself.”
Leng Chenmo held a wine glass and nodded slightly, “Uncle Li, Grandfather Zhuo.”
