Chapter 309: Chapter 309: The Continuation of Tormenting the Scum (4)

"That elderly person is his grandmother," Gu Nuan explained to her mother.

Gu’s mother no longer had the slightest worry. As a daughter-in-law herself, she knew very well that marrying wasn’t just about the man, but also about his entire family. Therefore, the nature of the woman’s in-laws is of great importance.

It’s not to say that it’s always good if the husband’s family is wealthy. Gu’s mother, having lived to a ripe old age with extensive social experience, had seen plenty of women who married into families better off than their own, yet they didn’t necessarily rise in status. On the contrary, they often endured insults from their husband’s family due to their own family’s modest means, especially the biting remarks from mothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.

In such times, it’s crucial for the man a woman marries to be able to hold up a protective umbrella for her, to provide a haven.

At this moment, Gu Nuan didn’t begin by praising her own partner. She would let her mother observe and come to her own conclusions.

Meanwhile, at the Xiao Family’s main entrance.

Two cars approached from opposite directions, one from the east and the other from the west, arriving at the gate one after the other.

Zhan Dapeng was the driver of the Ferrari coming from the west. After parking, he said to the two people seated behind him, "We’re here, Professor Tang."

Tang Sili and his assistant Ou Yanan appeared less like guests attending a banquet, both dressed in plain white suits and black trousers, resembling the attire of doctors on a call.

In fact, they had brought along their medical kit and the white coats necessary for a visit.

In contrast, Zhan Dapeng seemed more formally dressed as one of the guests officially invited by the Xiao Family. Considering the grandmother’s dislike for slovenliness, he had spent hours plucking his stubborn stubble.

His chin still smarted. Zhan Dapeng rubbed his chin with his fingers.

The two doctors got out of the car.

A waiter from the Xiao Family took Zhan Dapeng’s car keys, tossed at him, to find a suitable parking spot as they were already full, having underestimated the number of guests who would drive themselves.

Similarly, the black Mercedes that had stopped the other way saw its three passengers alight and the vehicle driven away by a server.

The two groups stood on opposite sides of the Xiao Family’s entrance, as if facing each other from a distance.

Zhan Dapeng raised his hand and greeted the man leading from the other side in a blue suit, "Director Chen."

Chen Jiaming acknowledged him with a measured nod.

Unlike the two handsome men Zhan Dapeng brought along, Chen Jiaming was accompanied by two beautiful women.

One was Li Changzhi, the other, Zhong Qiaohui.

Both were from the company, both with exceptional personal backgrounds, said to have been recruited by Chen Jiaming himself after considerable effort. Now, by bringing these two women, he not only had divine company but they, hailing from prestigious families and being quite striking in appearance, were fitting partners for Chen Jiaming’s public appearances.

But Zhan Dapeng thought, Chen Jiaming bringing these two women was undoubtedly also to curry favor with some heavy hitters behind them.

Hadn’t it been widely speculated that the Xiao grandmother’s birthday banquet was a ploy to find a match for her grandson? Whether Li Changzhi or Zhong Qiaohui, both were of a suitable age to Xiao Yebai and their families were well-matched with the Xiao Family, surely they were among the prime candidates in the grandmother’s eyes for a prospective granddaughter-in-law.

Probably, inside the Xiao Family today, there would be many young women like Chen Jiaming, or Misses like Li Changzhi and Zhong Qiaohui.
