Chapter 345: Chapter 345 Dressed Like a Seductress
Bai Yueru realized the Old Lady had misunderstood, so she said, "Mom, her name is Han Ruixin, she is the daughter of Han Dongliang from Han City, and her relationship with our Shaochen is just—"
"Han Dongliang?" The Old Lady’s expression changed slightly, then she smiled and asked, "Is your mother Lin Han?"
"Yes, Grandma, my mom is Lin Han," Han Ruixin spoke carefully, paying close attention to the changing expressions on the Old Lady’s face. She felt relieved only after noticing that the Old Lady was merely a bit surprised and nothing else.
"Oh, Han Ruixin..." the Old Lady muttered with a smiling voice, "Didn’t your parents ever tell you about this old mess of a woman? I remember I once objected to your relationship with Chenchen. Do you hate me for that?"
Han Ruixin shook her head and replied, "Grandma, how could I possibly hate you? Though I liked Brother Chen a lot, back then I was useless and truly unworthy of Brother Chen. Grandma’s opposition to our relationship was normal; I took it as a sign that our time had not yet come."
"Oh? Time hadn’t come? So, you mean that now the time has arrived for you and our Chenchen?" the Old Lady asked with keen interest.
"Maybe, Grandma. I believe that everything beautiful in this world is predestined from above. For example, the fate between Brother Chen and me—first, I saved him, later, I also cured his gynophobia. And my leg condition improved because he stayed by my side before the surgery which helped me to stand again..."
While Han Ruixin narrated this, she didn’t forget to throw a shy glance toward Sheng Shaochen, as if she were deliberately confessing something...
"Hahaha!" The Old Lady suddenly laughed out loud, which made Han Ruixin shudder with fright.
Seeing this, the Old Lady said, "I’m sorry, did I scare you just now? I am truly happy for your parents, those folks, to have such a sensible and clever daughter like you—it must be the reward of their several lifetimes’ worth of good deeds."
Han Ruixin was overjoyed upon hearing this and said, "Grandma, actually I know there have been some misunderstandings between my parents and you. So, this time, I mainly came here to apologize on their behalf, hoping you would be magnanimous enough to forgive my parents for any past offenses..."
Just then, a girl dressed in a Yves Saint Laurent dress appeared at the entrance of the opera garden, stunned at the scene before her—how could Han Ruixin be here?
Noticing Ye Shu, Bai Yueru quickly waved at her, "Xiao Shu, come here quickly, Grandma has been waiting for you."
Ye Shu observed the layout inside the opera garden and realized it was the Old Lady’s birthday. She felt embarrassed and walked timidly to the Old Lady, politely saying, "Happy birthday, Grandma."
After saying that, she threw a reproachful glance at Demon King Sheng—the guy really should have told her. If she had known it was the Old Lady’s birthday, she would have definitely prepared a gift beforehand, rather than feeling awkwardly empty-handed.
"Grandma, this is Ye Shu, we—" Sheng Shaochen initially wanted to say they were already together, but seeing Han Ruixin present, he cut his sentence short not to embarrass her and simply wrapped his arm around Ye Shu’s waist.
And Han Ruixin also moved closer, positioning herself intimately beside Sheng Shaochen on the other side.
"What is it with you both?" the Old Lady disdainfully said, looking at Ye Shu, "Today is my birthday, and everyone is dressed so neatly, but you come dressed like some enchantress, not even bringing a gift, just saying happy birthday as if that’s enough to make me happy?"
