Li Manman stared wide-eyed in confusion, she didn’t recall ever telling them she had a boyfriend, what was going on?
"Manman is very sensible, Uncle and Aunt, please have a seat." Feng Yi gestured with one hand.
"Wait, wait, what’s going on here?"
Xu Lan pulled Li Manman’s hand and sat down in front of the sofa, giving Feng Yi a meaningful look: "Before you two got together, Feng Yi came to visit us, saying he wanted to date you with marriage in mind, hoping we would approve."
Li Manman felt like she’d fallen into Feng Yi’s trap. Didn’t that mean she was like a big fool chasing after him with all her effort?
Next to them, Han Xi was holding back laughter so hard her insides nearly hurt, remembering how this girl used all sorts of tricks to chase Feng Yi, only to end up being countered.
"I just wanted to get the consent of your parents first, doesn’t everyone say dating without marriage in mind is just fooling around?"
Feng Yi leaned close to Li Manman’s ear, whispering in a voice only they could hear.
"Then why did you act all aloof, making me chase you so hard, you sly guy."
Feng Yi gave a nonchalant smile, "Because only when the chase is hard do you learn to cherish."
Li Manman was practically furious enough to explode; he had the nerve to dig the trap so confidently and rightfully.
"Feng Yi, this girl has been spoiled by us. If she throws a tantrum or acts up, just tell me and her father, and we’ll back you up."
Xu Lan said with a cheerful smile, clearly quite fond of this son-in-law.
"Mom, it’s more like he’s bullying me, why are you siding with him?" Li Manman turned to Feng Yi, "Tell me, did you bribe them?"
Feng Yi nodded naturally and whispered, "I said that after getting married, I’d give them a grandchild right away, do you agree?"
In front of Feng Yi, Li Manman was completely a pushover, lacking any backbone, despite previously saying how hard it was chasing after him and how harsh she’d be once they started dating.
Now all those words were forgotten.
Lu Jinghan glanced at the people in the hall and then turned to Han Xi, "You sit here for a bit, I’m going to entertain the guests."
"Do you want me to come with you?"
"No need, you’re wearing high heels, and I’m worried you’ll get tired."
Honestly, Han Xi wasn’t too keen on going; she wasn’t good at socializing in such situations. But since it was a Lu family banquet, it seemed necessary for her as the granddaughter-in-law to greet the guests.
"It’s alright." Han Xi hooked her arm with Lu Jinghan’s, "Uncle and Aunt, we’ll go greet the guests first."
"Alright, alright, you go on."
The guests today were all prominent figures in An City, eager for the opportunity to connect with Lu Jinghan on Old Master Lu’s birthday.
"President Lu, long time no see."
"Hello, President Zhang." Lu Jinghan nodded slightly. For origınal chapters go to 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝔫𝔢𝔱
President Zhang of Shengshi Group had been partners with the Lu Family for a long time, and their conversation was quite familiar, "And this must be Mrs. Lu, even more beautiful than in the photos."
Han Xi smiled softly and nodded.
By now, almost all of high society in An City knew Lu Jinghan was married. Recently, their photos from the earthquake rescue in Lin City had drawn much attention.
